What version is your MAKEDEV? Actually, doing 'cd0' _or_ 'cd1' should create both the cd0 and cd1 devices. Try a, # sh -x MAKEDEV cd1 To see what is going on. -- Crist J.

What am I doing wrong? Nothing; just that your crypt symlinks are pointing to the wrong libraries at present. The DES libs recognise MD5-style passwords and can deal with them if they arise.

A pc router running 3.2release at certain moments wont have mac addresses in its arp table for the other hosts on the same LAN. A arp -an would say [incomplete]. In the mean time a tcpdump on arp show that the machine does send arp requests and it does receive arp reply, it just wont install them. Only after I do a arp -ad will it start to install entries again. The interface in question is mx0. I looked through system messages and could find any indication of a relevant error message ot something. Could this be a driver problem? Has anyone had a similar problem? thanks, slava.

Because of the new export laws, libscrypt is now more or less obsolete. Better just to alter "passwd_format" in login.conf. You would probably want "passwd_format=des".

Then I did as what the freebsd-handbook said: " lptest> /dev/lpt0" didnt work, so I guessed my printer didnt support plain text. I created a file with postscript, then typed following command: "cat filename > /dev/lpt0" ,but still didn't work ,so i guessed my printer didnt support postscript. Went on, I installed Ghostscript5.0 package, In ghostscript's configuration window I modified something necessary, and then began to print a test page; at this moment my printer worked, all seemed to be fine,however, when I began normal printing ,my printer still didnt work. To my surprise it still could print a test page. 1.I wonder if there are some printers that supported neither plain text or postscript. 2.I want to make my printer work. any help is appreciated.

I have read all the relevant articles in the listserv archives but I still have not been successful so am submitting a plea for help to the listserv. All hints, tips and tricks are graciously welcome. The symptom is that when I play an mp3, the playback is very low volume, staticy and sound only comes from the left speaker.

Here's my current dmesg info for the CDs: cd0 at sym0 bus 0 target 5 lun 0 cd0: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2 device cd0: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 15) cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present cd1 at sym0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 cd1: Removable Worm SCSI-2 device cd1: 3.300MB/s transfers cd1: cd present [314413 x 2048 byte records] Now, my CDR102 works great if it's cd0 (I've put it there by disabling scanning of target 5 in my SCSI BIOS). However, running as cd1 it can't be detected by my burn software (cdrecord). This leads me to believe that there are still some devices missing. Maybe this is getting away from a FreeBSD issue now and into more of an application issue, but I can't really tell where the line is, here... whether the software can't detect the drive because of some bug, or because some device it's looking for isn't present.

Unfortunately, I didn't get clear answers and recommendations about certain hardware that work well with FreeBSD. Mostly, the people who replied suggested to use vinum to add RAID-1 support. If I understand right, vinum is a software RAID-1 solution, and this is not the type of solution I am looking for. You may want to suggest it, but I must have a hardware solution. So, if you folks can help me out and tell me brands/makers of supported RAID-1 hardware for FreeBSD, I'll appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Assuming that your client's site is like most others, 80% of the messages transit in 20% of the time. so 160K messages will transit the hub in 4.8 hours or about 9/second. If I assume that very connection takes three file descriptors (remote connection, queue file, and log) then the 1024 above represents something like 340 actual concurrent connections. Plugging that through Littles law gives an average hold time at peak of around 35 seconds. This seems like a long average hold time for mail transits. In my experiance with sendmail times beyond 5 seconds are the exception rather than the rule. Other things that factor into long hold times are identd queries and long DNS lookups. You can probably turn off identd queries. DNS tends to be a bit harder to speed up. Managing resource consumption is probably a good idea too. I don't have any experiance with postfix. Is there a connection rate throttle that can be turned on? Or a peak connection count? BTW /etc/rc makes reference to /etc/rc.sysctl. I might consider creating it and putting your commands there. chris -- Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 5 13:34:30 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from rush.telenordia.se (mail.telenordia.se [194.213.64.42]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 411B237B479 for ; Sun, 5 Nov 2000 13:34:26 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 22673 invoked from network); 5 Nov 2000 22:34:25 +0100 Received: from bb-62-5-7-17.bb.tninet.se (HELO marbsd.tninet.se) (62.5.7.17) by mail.telenordia.se with SMTP; 5 Nov 2000 22:34:25 +0100 From: Mark Rowlands Date: Sun, 5 Nov 2000 22:29:07 +0000 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.1.99] Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org References: In-Reply-To: Subject: Re: Fwd: Fwd: yahoo clubs for teens pornographic MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <00110522290705.03057@marbsd.tninet.se> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sunday 05 November 2000 20:54, you wrote: > > > dear sirs, > > > > > > i iam a mother of a 13yr old son. one day i was looking on the web for > > > some clubs for my son to join and i ran across yahoo's clubs for teens. > > > i was shocked to find what i did. there are clubs listed there that no > > > parent would want there children to see. some of the titles include: > > > jack off buddies, teen cocks rock, hot lesbian teens and several > > > others. none of these sites are password protected. the next thing i > > > did was try to find a email address for yahoo but i could not find one > > > anywhere. i then noticed that your company was working with yahoo. so i > > > would like to know if you want to be affiliated with a company that is > > > clearly and deliberatly making this trash available to our kids? does > > > anyone in your company have kids? log on and see what you think. i know > > > yahoo will never listen to me but they may listen to you and the other > > > companys i intend to notify. you can also relay to them i intend to let > > > every major television network in on what i found. will anyone ever > > > start taking moral responsibilty?. > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/abuse/cgi_abuse Yap, I take responsibility for educating my kids...I don't expect other people to.

The sportster line had a couple of winmodem models, so caution is advised. The quickest way to tell if a sportster is compatible (the only non-compatible sportsters are the winmodems) are the two generalized winmodem winnowing rules: external modems are never winmodems, and modems that have jumpers for determining the ttyS (COM) port, IRQ, and I/O port can not be winmodems.

The problem I am getting is that after an unclean shutdown, it always complains that the /tmp filesystem is unclean and I have to run fsck -p from the console. It is only the /tmp fs that this happens to, I presume because that was the only one being actively used when the box went down. My question is: Is there any way to configure the system so that it automatically attempts to recover and (hopefully) boots? Alternatively, can someone let me know why this would be a Bad Idea anyway :-) The system in question is running a fairly recent -STABLE, but I'm assuming this is not a -stable specific question. I have soft updates enabled on some of the filesystems, including /tmp.

If you installed sources, look in /usr/src/release. That builds the ISO image for the "fixit" cd, which is pretty much what you're describing. BTW, last time I looked at rmt, it pretty much sucked. It was *much* faster to just send the dump output to an rsh to the remote system than ran a dd to block things for the tape drive. On the other hand, that was a long time ago, and rmt may have been improved since then. > I've been scratching my head a while about how to do this, specifically > about how to prepare a file system for the boot CD.

You really don't need an fstab, unless you want to provide pointers to other devices. At least, the "fixit" CDROM doesn't have an fstab. After all, the kernel comes up with root mounted, and you're not going to remount it to make it rw, so... > Secondly, will I be able to restore to the FreeBSD computers after > a crash?

Again, none of that's a problem - just so long as you build the kernel cd properly. Also again, look in /usr/src/release for the tools used to build the boot floppies.

Until the XFree team decides they're going to fix the security problems, FreeBSD is going to use 3.3.6. Since X is rather large, I'd not bet on two X distributions showing up in the release set. You might check cheapbytes and see if they have a CD of XFree86 4.0 you can use.

I should take the time to point out that I am not officially affiliated with freebsd.org in any way. I am a participant (among a few thousand participants) on the mailing list you sent mail to, however. The list, in case you're curious, is a "club," of sorts, of interested users of a particular software package called "FreeBSD," where we gather to trade questions and answers. I am also in no way affiliated with yahoo.com. In fact, there is no official affiliation at all between freebsd.org and yahoo.com. As it happens, Yahoo uses FreeBSD to run their systems. While I'm sympathetic regarding your shock at discovering the range of interests on Yahoo's sites, complaining to freebsd.org would be akin to complaining to Pentax or Nikon about their "affiliation" with Playboy photographers. The FreeBSD software is an "operating system" with no particular agenda, and it can be used in a variety of ways, some of which I'm sure some of us would find offensive. But I'm fairly sure that freebsd.org does not want to be in a position of determining how people should use the software, nor do they wish to police its use. It should be used in any way the user wishes it to be used, and the organization has no wish to dictate terms or limit its users' freedom of speech in any way. I'm sure that while some of the content you ran into is offensive, in your opinion (and, as I said, certainly in the opinions of some of the participants of *this* list), I must gently object to your assertion that Yahoo is "clearly and deliberatly making this trash available to our kids." You might as easily say that the US Government is doing the same, or FreeBSD, or for that matter, God (who most certainly permits this sort of thing on a regular basis, for better or worse). Yahoo supports all sorts of interests, and does not try to limit the content or range of those interests except in clearly illegal cases. Yahoo plays the role of a "common carrier," and is not responsible for any of the specific content posted at its site. And there are a lot of people out there with profoundly different standards and interests than you, so running into this sort of thing, at times, is inevitable, just as it might be at a library or your corner store or in other real life situations. While I understand your concern, there's nothing that leads me to believe that complaining to Microsoft (for example) or FreeBSD or most other companies (including major television networks, who already air some pretty interesting stuff, and are certainly aware of some of the clubs you can find on the Net) will sway Yahoo in this regard. Yahoo isn't a particularly kid-oriented place, to be honest; another site run by Yahoo might be much more kid-friendly: http://www.yahooligans.com/ However, it might be a little too kid-oriented for a 13-year-old. I might suggest instead some of the following: http://www.kidlink.org/ http://www.cyberteens.com/ http://www.gettingreal.com/ http://www.alloy.com/ http://www.teen-net.com/ KidLink is designed for kids from roughly 7-15; it may be a little on the immature side. CyberTeens allows chatting, games, and creative links. GettingReal is for older teens, I think, but in general, it's an honest site. Alloy.com is more of a fashion and gossip site, probably more tuned to the female teenager. And Teen-net is more of a teen entertainment site. Like all responsible parents, you will probably want to look over these sites before deciding whether you want your son exposed to them at this time. And ultimately, it really is up to you---neither Yahoo or FreeBSD or any other company can be nearly as good of a parent as you can. We can only take moral responsibility for our own lives. You don't want strangers on the Net teaching your kids moral responsibility, certainly; that quite rightly should be your job, and others in coordination with you. Best of luck to you and yours. ---Ken To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 5 17:38:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtprelay2.adelphia.net (smtprelay2.adelphia.net [64.8.25.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E818537B479 for ; Sun, 5 Nov 2000 17:38:56 -0800 (PST) Received: from micro2000 ([24.48.38.115]) by smtprelay2.adelphia.net (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with SMTP id G3KXTP00.K9K for ; Sun, 5 Nov 2000 20:37:01 -0500 Message-ID: <000e01c05f25$491f7180$2663fea9@buf.adelphia.net> From: "James G.

Currently, I've got Windows (ad0s1) and FreeBSD (ad0s2) installed, and am able to mount the Windows partition just fine. But should disklabel know about this partition? Here's my disklabel output: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 131072 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 8*) b: 524288 131072 swap # (Cyl. 8*- 40*) c: 8177085 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 508) e: 65536 655360 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 40*- 44*) f: 65536 720896 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 44*- 48*) g: 5120000 786432 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 48*- 367*) h: 2270653 5906432 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 367*- 508*) However, there's a Windows partition before the "a" slice, so why does disklabel say slice "a" runs from cylinders 0 through 8? Are these cylinders 0 through 8 relative to the FreeBSD partition? I ask because I've tried installing other operating systems from the DOS partition (e.x., OpenBSD) but have failed because the new OS couldn't find the DOS partition (When things go smoothly, OpenBSD detects an "i" slice that's my Windows partiton). This usually happens when other partitions used to exist where I want to install the new OS, and I had to use fdisk to remove the old partition to make room for the new one. -- David Kanter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 5 20:26:16 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail07.rapidsite.net (mail07.rapidsite.net [207.158.192.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D635537B4C5 for ; Sun, 5 Nov 2000 20:26:13 -0800 (PST) Received: from www.rubycom.com (208.55.217.146) by mail07.rapidsite.net (RS ver 1.0.53) with SMTP id 09571753 for ; Sun, 5 Nov 2000 23:26:03 -0500 (EST) From: "Jose A.

I want to learn more about manage this server efficiently especially on these areas: 1.- How to manage correctly an account (www.mysite.com) 2.- How to set-up email accounts and administer the mail quotas. 3.- The log file for statistical reports. And another information that I need to be a good webmaster. Actually I can configure web accounts but my principal problem is on email settings and manage the quotas for each one and the statistics report. I'll appreciate your help in this case, and send me information about where I can go to receive a training on FreeBSD. Thanks, Jose A. Rodriguez Webmaster, Rubycom, C. x A.

I have looked at the disk and found files *.core files that appear to be rather large. File names are syslogd.core, inetd.core, telnetd.core, and tcsh.core. They appear to be binary files.

A specific example would be..if I wanted to set an MTU of 576. If I set the MTU of 576 on a Windows machine but the FreeBSD box doing NAT is still MTU 1500, is the windows machine using 576 or 1500 in that case? Thanks.

For instance, when I try to build "oaf" out of ports, I get the fol- lowing error message: checking for glib-config... /usr/local/bin/glib12-config checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.0... yes checking for orbit-config... /usr/local/bin/orbit-config checking for ORBit - version >= 0.5.1... no *** Could not run ORBIT test program, checking why... *** The test program compiled, but did not run.

Now, the really weird part is that when *I* run /usr/local/bin/orbit-config --version from the command line, I get the following output: ORBit 0.5.4 which makes sense, since I installed the package yesterday. Any advice as to what's up would be greatly appreciated.

I can sympathize with your situation. Unless you have an urgent need to stay with -stable you might simply want to stick with doing binary upgrades to the major releases. You might also try binary snapshots of -stable that are available at ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/ if you are looking for specific functionality that's available only in a certain snapshot.

That is because of The Open Group trademark (which is stupid in the first place). That's like trademarking the word "bed". If I wrap a weiner in wheat bread instead of a white bread hotdog bun, do you not consider that a hotdog as well? What about McDonalds?. They use soy as a filler in their products. Do you not consider those hamburgers either? I bet you still call them hamburgers. Sure Bell Labs (div. of AT&T) created the first UNIX, but AT&T licensed the source because of a DOJ injunction prohibiting them to sell software. The code got out and was studied and used in other implementations. Berkley created alot of utils that became standard for UNIX. 4.4BSD-Lite had very little AT&T source, but that doesn't mean it's not UNIX. For that matter, UNIX was orignally written in Assembly but for portability reasons it was rewritten in C. So basically, UNIX is not UNIX according to your beliefs. The C source was based on the Assembly source, but it's not really the "same" source, it was rewritten. Let's take the upcoming Perl 6. It will be a complete rewrite and not based on the Perl 5 source code. According to your beliefs, Perl 6 would not really be Perl because Perl 6 is not based on the source of Perl 5. I'll still call it Perl, however. The source is not important. What's important is the OS, and FreeBSD has UNIX written all over it!

To be more precise, it's like trademarking Kleenex or Xerox, both of which have been genericized to a certain extent much like Unix. But they also both have seen their share of court cases because somebody that shouldn't have called a product Kleenex or Xerox did anyway and got sued. Something tells me that there won't be any new lawsuits filed over the Unix tm, but it's still a good idea to head this kind of stuff off at the pass before someone gets their nose out of joint. > If I wrap a weiner in wheat bread instead of a white bread hotdog bun, do > you not consider that a hotdog as well? What about McDonalds?. They use > soy as a filler in their products. Do you not consider those hamburgers > either? I bet you still call them hamburgers. For my trademark comment, if somebody asked me for a Big Mac and I handed them a hamburger off my grill in the backyard, they'd be righteously angry if they were anticipating a Big Mac. If they were just looking for a hamburger, I'd like to think that my burgers are better than McD's, so they might be inadvertently pleased. The guy asked for Unix, I gave him Unix. As far as the hot dog/weiner/frank/whatever, if I ask for a hot dog and somebody hands me one wrapped in bread as opposed to a bun, I'm not too surprised: if someone hands me a Chorizo, I'm surprised (but not too annoyed, as I usually prefer Chorizos :) > Sure Bell Labs (div. of AT&T) created the first UNIX, but AT&T licensed the > source because of a DOJ injunction prohibiting them to sell software.

No beef here, just a warning that MIT did a lot of work at this time as well, which turned into GNU stuff...There are some irrelevant quality issues in there that aren't for this thread... > 4.4BSD-Lite had very little AT&T source, but that doesn't mean it's not > UNIX.

So will I, because Larry Wall gave permission to call Perl 6 Perl, and even if he didn't, it's under a license that allows it. AT&T did not give anybody permission to call BSD "Unix"--I'd hoped that it would change when Caldera got the tm, but they sold it almost as quickly... > The source is not important. What's important is the OS, and FreeBSD has > UNIX written all over it! FreeBSD also has Lawsuit written on it because of the use of Unix--Linux wouldn't exist at all if there wasn't the tiff over the trademark: Torvalds reputedly stayed away from BSD variants because of the lawsuit and instead rewrote Minix. > BTW, if James is just getting started he may want to download an ISO > instead... What do you learn from a precooked ISO? Almost everything I've ever learned in programming, I've learned from reading someone else's source and figuring out what and how they did. He did say he wanted it "for study", kind of implying he wanted to study it, not use it as an OS for schoolwork. > ftp://ftp.freesoftware.com/.0/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/ > ftp://ftp.freesoftware.com/.0/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/ > > Jeremy Falcon > "Waiting to be bashed." /me prefers tcsh :) (now THAT's a good thing to argue over :) > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "John Galt" > To: "James G.

FreeBSD doesn't support it yet, but I have some untested patches that you can try, if you work with me here we can support threads+sysvipc in FreeBSD in the next release. you can grab my patches here: http://people.freebsd.org/~alfred/uthread_sysv.diff just: cd /usr/src/lib ; patch < /path/to/patchfile ; make clean && make depend && make all && make install then try recompiling your app and let me know how it works. You'll need to have a very recent install of FreeBSD 4.x, you can get it from ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/ I've also cc'd some thread guru's because i'm not sure how all this weak/strong reference stuff works nowadays and I wanted them to get a shot at it and a chance to merge it into any ongoing patchsets so I don't stomp on someone's feet. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

I don't know how to install it properly but since I'm kinda like impatient and like to try new things, especially if everybody I know tells me that this system is more secure and since this is running our web-server I thought I should install it on my machine. That's what I did.... Even though my computer was divided ( since I have a 45 GB HD ) I thought this shouldn't be that much of a prob. But now I have kinda like lost Windows and everything I had installed before.... but that didn't matter much since I have backuped my data. Now I would like to recover from that mistake. I have tried to install windows but it dies during installation, probably because I have installed FreeBSD on my boot sector ( and 8GB C: partition). Maybe you can give me a hint how to install both using the FreeBSD boot manager. Otherwise you might help me how to install both, actually three systems since I'm going to install OpenBSD and maybe SuSe as good as well, but I would need to know how to handle multiple systems on one HD.

To my surprise I was not able to run a traceroute through it - the packets were always denied. Examining the logs I found out that traceroute did not use a specific source port for the outgoing queries. Even when I invoked traceroute with -P UPD and -p 33434 the source port was >35000. Each invocation incremented the port no. by one. What am I missing? I suppose I did not quite understand the way traceroute works - any suggestions are welcome. Cheers, Thomas Seck P.S: Please cc me or the list as I am not subscribed to -questions.

I'm pretty sure cleaning out those files will not harm your system. My understanding is that those files would be generated when an application crashes (I may be proved wrong) and I always delete them. I know of 2 ways to go: Move /tmp to /usr .If you have enough space in /usr then create /tmp there and make /tmp symlink to /usr/tmp (I am told this might create a problem later when you boot to single user mode, so better do the same in single user mode, which takes care of multi-user mode too). You can then delete /tmp And I use this script ocassionally to clean up: #!/bin/sh find / \( -name a.out -o -name core \ -o -name '#*#' \) -type f -atime +14 \ -exec rm -f {} \; -o -fstype nfs -prune You may adopt it....It does not clean on NFS file system.

I have tried several times so far. Each time, it downloads= somewhere between a third and half the required files. Then it just stops! I have tried both active and passive ftp modes. One thing which concerned me was that the disk partition I am= trying to install to is very small - only 120 Meg. (It's just an old 486= I'd like to use as a router for sharing the cable modem connection we= have.) I worried that perhaps it was running out of space during the install, and that this was causing the hang,although it doesn't= give any error message, it just stops transferring files. However, I'm= not sure if this could really be the problem as the hanging is= occurring at different points in the process. ie, The bin distribution is divided into bin.aa, bin.ab, bin.ac, etc - one time it only got= as far as bin.ai, another time it got as far as bin.cw, and mostly= it's given up the ghost somewhere in the bin.b* This is driving me crazy! The other option for getting the files across would be to take= out the hard-drive and put it into the windows machine which has a cd0rom, put the files on it here, and then put it back into the potential-router machine with the files on it, and use "install= from a dos partition". However due to the extremely infuriating= placement of one of the screws holding the drive in,(don't ask me why....)= this looks like it is going to require taking the motherboard and all= of the cards out which is not something I want to do! One reason the partition is so small is that I have left the= windows for workgroups system on it that it used to have, so that, if necessary, I can put the install files on here by transferring= the drive to another computer as mentioned, and then put it back in= the router and use "install from dos partition". If I wiped this old= dos partition out then I would have the whole 240 meg to play with, however I only want to do this if I am fairly sure that the ftp install will work. I don't want to be left having to make up a= whole set of install floppies or something! I suppose I could try= taking the cd-rom out of the windows machine and putting it in the 486= just for the purposes of getting the installation done - this is not something I've done before though and I'm not sure how difficult= it would turn out to be. Since I don't know whether the problem is one of space, or some= other problem with the ftp sysinstall process, I haven't taken any= other steps yet. so I'm writing to ask for any comments or help. I can send more= info as required, Thank you Wendy Langer (FreeBSD very-newbie, unix-in-general= fairly-newbie) -- Wendy Langer, hypatia@dingoblue.net.au on 07/11/2000 at= 1:07:35 am To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 6:37:18 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.rdc1.tx.home.com (ha1.rdc1.tx.home.com [24.4.0.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5D0E237B687 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 06:37:15 -0800 (PST) Received: from home.com ([24.8.250.184]) by mail.rdc1.tx.home.com (InterMail vM.4.01.03.00 201-229-121) with ESMTP id <20001106143715.COB4470.mail.rdc1.tx.home.com@home.com> for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 06:37:15 -0800 Message-ID: <3A06C179.4EBB46A1@home.com> Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2000 08:34:33 -0600 From: leoric@home.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (Win98; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: issue file for sshd Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there a way that I can print the contents of a file (/etc/issue) before the login prompt with sshd.

I've got a problem at the moment that has popped up during the process of moving over to 4.1. In our old (3.0 based) kernel, one of the options we gave was 'config kernel root on vn0' to tell the kernel to boot from an mfs located in the kernel. If I try and include that line in the kernel config now, I'm told by config that that option is obsolete, but I've been unable to find out what the 4.1 equivalent is. Any help will be much appreciated.

The closest that came was on 5 Apr 2000 by David Kanter to which Lowell replied. David has asked: > I ask this because the instructions for make world say to go into single > user mode with "shutdown now" and then run fsck -p. I did this, and all > seemed OK, but fsck was run on mounted filesystems, such as /. > > The first thing you learn about Linux is to not run fsck on a mounted > partition, like /. to which Lowell replied: ------ The short answer is that, no, you can't safely fsck a mounted filesystem on FreeBSD either. You're more likely to get away without damaging it, but "more likely" isn't much of a guarantee. Normally, if you really need to fsck on the run, you should shut down to single-user mode first, and dismount the filesystem. We do make an exception for the root filesystem, which is often fsck'd while mounted read-only. ------ Now here is my problem. I have a Pentium 450 with 3 18GB SCSI Seagates. On an earlier server I had 3 9GB SCSI seagates. running FreeBSD 3.4 and 3.2x I used to get occasional (once a month or two month?) hangups and teh reboot would cause fsck problem and in single user mode. So, I thought maybe if I fsck it more often problem may go away. So I put a cron job to fsck -p every night. Now, this of course is happening on a mounted FS!! I still get error sometime, and the server has to be manually fsck'ed almost every 40-60 days. My question: If I should not fsck on mounted FS, why do I get the fsck errors in teh first place and how can avoid them? Is it a good idea to run fsck -y via cron job once a night? or once a week? Why do these error happen? Any particular type of activity cuases it? Too many files? Too much I/O ? Too much file creation/deletion? I don't have anything heavy duty on the server yet. top gives load to be < 1.0 every time. Here is the output of fsck -p from last night: ------------------------------------------------------------ Mon Nov 6 03:20:00 EST 2000 /dev/rda0s1a: 1124 files, 27206 used, 36297 free /dev/rda1s1h: 671 files, 13896 used, 13311001 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (873 frags, 1663766 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) /dev/rda1s1f: 3420 files, 74484 used, 433659 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (1563 frags, 54012 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) /dev/rda1s1e: 258 files, 4003 used, 250060 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (68 frags, 31249 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) /dev/rda2s1f: 17638 files, 237106 used, 12833711 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (6079 frags, 1603454 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) /dev/rda0s1f: 9899 files, 449590 used, 15606666 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (3714 frags, 1950369 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) /dev/rda2s1e: 41414 files, 1456189 used, 2609073 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (17689 frags, 323923 blocks, 0.4% fragmentation) /dev/rda0s1e: 59341 files, 577139 used, 439164 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (70108 frags, 46132 blocks, 6.9% fragmentation) /dev/rda1s1g: FREE BLK COUNT(S) WRONG IN SUPERBLK/dev/rda1s1g: SUMMARY INFORMATION BAD/dev/rda1s1g: BLK(S) MISSING IN BIT MAPS/dev/rda1s1g: 108321 files, 630064 used, 2418878 free (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) (SALVAGED) (SALVAGED) (SALVAGED) (3478 frags, 301925 blocks, 0.1% fragmentation) (185 frags, 4514 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) Mon Nov 6 03:21:00 EST 2000 ------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you, Shashi __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Does creating/deleting temp files on a FS stress it too much, is bad for it, canm cause disk errors? e.g. If I have a flat file database which may result in a few thousand files on a FS, (say 5 files per user), and will also result in creating deleting and of course read/write of files. On the other hand, if I install MySql or some other database, then I have only say 10-20 files (including index files) and now the traffic passes through the database thread.

No, FreeBSD has its own kernel. Actually, it is a complete operating system. Linux is just a kernel. To use Linux, you have to choose a distribution for it, e.g., RedHat, Mandrake, etc. FreeBSD's kernel is more professional. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 7:43:57 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from drillbit.houghnut.mine.nu (h0050dad127d9.ne.mediaone.net [24.128.133.119]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8160337B4D7 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 07:43:53 -0800 (PST) Received: by drillbit.houghnut.mine.nu with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:38:27 -0500 Message-ID: From: Michael Crispin To: "'questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: MPD and increase MAX_BUNDS Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:38:27 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I need to increase this MAX_BUNDS argument for MPD 3.2 to allow more connections... is this int he makefile?

If you are familiar with linux, then Using FreeBSD wouldn't be much of a strech for you, they feel similar, although FreeBSD uses a more standard file layout than most linux distros.

I have tried several times so far. Each time, it downloads= somewhere between a third and half the required files. Then it just stops! I have tried both active and passive ftp modes. One thing which concerned me was that the disk partition I am= trying to install to is very small - only 120 Meg. (It's just an old 486= I'd like to use as a router for sharing the cable modem connection we= have.) I worried that perhaps it was running out of space during the install, and that this was causing the hang,although it doesn't= give any error message, it just stops transferring files. However, I'm= not sure if this could really be the problem as the hanging is= occurring at different points in the process. ie, The bin distribution is divided into bin.aa, bin.ab, bin.ac, etc - one time it only got= as far as bin.ai, another time it got as far as bin.cw, and mostly= it's given up the ghost somewhere in the bin.b* This is driving me crazy! The other option for getting the files across would be to take= out the hard-drive and put it into the windows machine which has a cd0rom, put the files on it here, and then put it back into the potential-router machine with the files on it, and use "install= from a dos partition". However due to the extremely infuriating= placement of one of the screws holding the drive in,(don't ask me why....)= this looks like it is going to require taking the motherboard and all= of the cards out which is not something I want to do! One reason the partition is so small is that I have left the= windows for workgroups system on it that it used to have, so that, if necessary, I can put the install files on here by transferring= the drive to another computer as mentioned, and then put it back in= the router and use "install from dos partition". If I wiped this old= dos partition out then I would have the whole 240 meg to play with, however I only want to do this if I am fairly sure that the ftp install will work. I don't want to be left having to make up a= whole set of install floppies or something! I suppose I could try= taking the cd-rom out of the windows machine and putting it in the 486= just for the purposes of getting the installation done - this is not something I've done before though and I'm not sure how difficult= it would turn out to be. Since I don't know whether the problem is one of space, or some= other problem with the ftp sysinstall process, I haven't taken any= other steps yet. so I'm writing to ask for any comments or help. I can send more= info as required, Thank you Wendy Langer (FreeBSD very-newbie, unix-in-general= fairly-newbie) -- Wendy Langer, hypatia@dingoblue.net.au on 07/11/2000 at= 3:01:10 am To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 7:57: 3 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from boat.mail.pipex.net (our.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.75]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 02BE337B479 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 07:56:59 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 2746 invoked from network); 6 Nov 2000 15:56:57 -0000 Received: from mailhost.puck.pipex.net (HELO mailhost.uk.internal) (194.130.147.54) by our.mail.pipex.net with SMTP; 6 Nov 2000 15:56:57 -0000 Received: (qmail 26174 invoked from network); 6 Nov 2000 15:56:39 -0000 Received: from camgate2.cam.uk.internal (172.31.6.21) by mailhost.uk.internal with SMTP; 6 Nov 2000 15:56:39 -0000 Received: by camgate2.cam.uk.internal with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 15:55:32 -0000 Message-ID: From: Daniel Bye To: 'Drew Sanford' , Tim Stahl Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: Got a quick question.

The six machines have the following jobs... 1. smithers.stomped.com - NIS master, DNS server (pop3 service in the near future) 2. www.stomped.coom - NIS slave, heavily loaded web server, pop3 3. web1.stomped.com - NIS slave, heavily load web server 4. ftp.stomped.com - dedicated ftp server (300 users), NIS slave, ircd 5. lore.stomped.com - database server, shoutcast server. 6. titan.stomped.com - a dedicated NFS server. All the machines are running run 4.1.1-RELEASE, except www (3.2), which will up upgraded shortly. There are dual network adapters in all machine except titan. We have two IP blocks. a public 216.17.56.0/8 block for internet services (ftp, smtp, pop3, http, act). The private services (NIS, NFS, sql, act) run on a private 10.1.1.0/8 network. I was amazed at how much cpu that ypserv is using on these boxes. In fact that's why I added two NIS slave servers in the first place. Smithers is only a single cpu Celeron machine, ypserv was routinely using all available cpu on this box. From time to time (several times an hour) the ypserv cpu load jumps from %0.1 up to all available cpu and stays there from several minutes and then returns to normal. I occasionally get yp timeouts during this time, even with three NIS servers for these few machines.

Recently I upgraded my motherboard and CPU. They are VA-503+ and AMD K6-2 3D 500. 256M PC100 SDROM. Two WD HDD. One is brand new 45gig and the other is old 8.4gig, also WD. Both HDD are in the same primary IDE channel. I was trying to install 4.0 which is running perfectly in my another 486 machine. Here are the info which could be related to my problem. 1) I have to disable UDMA for the Primary IDE master drive (45gig), ortherwise the whole machine could not work properly. I believe there are some ide controller issues here. 2) Fresh install of 4.0 successful. But after reboot, with gereric kernel, the sysinstall see both wd and ad devices like below wd0 wd1 ad0 ad1 3) dmesg show two drives there running UDMA 33. Looks perfectly normal. The kernel did detect the both drivers!!! It sees my CPU correctly, running at 501.14Mhz. 4) next day when I turn on the machine, sysinstall could not see the ide drives at all!??? dmesg still shew the both drives were detected at booting. 5) I tried to make world to see if that helps, but could complete the make buildworld. It stops at different places (I tried it several ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ times), most of the error messages were something like ==== internal compiler errors: last line is not the last of the file etc.. ... ==== I strongly suspect there were hardware issues here, but no clue where to check.

What I did was add the port /usr/ports/sysutils/rdate. Then, I added the following aliases to root adjdate (/usr/local/sbin/rdate -a time.u.washington.edu) setdate (/usr/local/sbin/rdate -s time.u.washington.edu) You have to set the date first to get it accurate. Then, you run adjdate and each time you run it, it adjusts the clock to keep your system more accurate. I used a modem back then to access the Internet and the aliases made it easy to invoke. I thought about adding the setdate to the ppp.linkup but never got around to it. Once I had a DSL line installed, I added ntpd to my gateway and firewall system. It can get out past the firewall and everything else can get to it. There is a program called Automachrom from http://oneguycoding.com/ that I use to keep my Windows machines syncronized. Until I had a ntpd, it was a one shot deal because I didn't want it to force the dial and then timeout. A change of several minutes wasn't uncommon. Once I had an ntpd, I linked Automachrom on my Windows machines to my FreeBSD ntpd and have it check the time every 1800 seconds. The deltas I see are on the order of 0.5 seconds. If 2 minutes was fine, 0.5 seconds is ultra accurate :).

I used the syscalls.master already. I know I have to modify libc, but this requires makeworld and all the binaries must be compiled again. If I don't want to modify libc, I know I have to use the SYSCALL macro or something like that. But I don't know how to use it. Also, I tried the syscall() function but are not getting good results. I just try to add a simple system call for testing: int my_call(int x, int y) { return (x + y); } In my user program: int main(int argc, char ** argv) { int x = 3; int y = 8; int z = 0; z = syscall(SYS_my_call, x, y); printf("%i + %i = %i\n", x, y, z); return 0; } But it prints: 3 + 8 = -1 Can you give me some idea what I did wrong and what I should do? Also, can you tell me how to use the SYSCALL macro because I am not familiar with macros at all? Thanks in advance. Thanks.

I'd expect the CPU load to roughly match named, since they basically do the same thing. Two things you can do to help debug it: truss the process and see if it's doing a lot of unusual syscalls (lookups on nonexistant NIS maps, etc), and tcpdump your network traffic to see if the load is being caused by runaway lookups on one of your client machines. > (It would be using more on this machine, but it's a dual cpu box, and > it can only saturate the one cpu at a time) Aha. If it's buzz-looping in the code somwehere, try rebuilding ypserv with DEBUG_FLAGS=-g, start it up, wait for high CPU, generate a coredump with gcore, and load gdb up on the corefile to see what it's doing. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 8:59:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from guru.mired.org (okc-27-149-77.mmcable.com [24.27.149.77]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 9804137B479 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 08:59:08 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 51351 invoked by uid 100); 6 Nov 2000 16:59:02 -0000 From: Mike Meyer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14854.58198.780116.947105@guru.mired.org> Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:59:02 -0600 (CST) To: Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta , Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Fwd: Fwd: yahoo clubs for teens pornographic In-Reply-To: <42378741@toto.iv> X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under 21.1 (patch 10) "Capitol Reef" XEmacs Lucid X-face: "5Mnwy%?j>IIV\)A=):rjWL~NB2aH[}Yq8Z=u~vJ`"(,&SiLvbbz2W`;h9L,Yg`+vb1>RG% *h+%X^n0EZd>TM8_IB;a8F?(Fb"lw'IgCoyM.[Lg#r\ Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta types: > === PATRICIA ZOUZOUNIS escribia > (Sun, Nov 05, 2000 at 03:54:53PM -0500): > > dear sirs, > > i iam a mother of a 13yr old son. one day i was looking on the > > web for some clubs for my son to join and i ran across yahoo's clubs for teens. > > i was shocked to find what i did. there are clubs listed there > > that no parent would want there children to see. some of the titles > > include: jack off buddies, teen cocks rock, hot lesbian teens and > > several others. none of these sites are password protected. the next > > thing i did was try to find a email address for yahoo but i could not > > find one anywhere. i then noticed that your company was working with > > yahoo. so i would like to know if you want to be affiliated with a > > company that is clearly and deliberatly making this trash available to > > our kids? does anyone in your company have kids? log on and see what > > you think. i know yahoo will never listen to me but they may listen to > > you and the other companys i intend to notify. you can also relay to > > them i intend to let every major television network in on what i found. > > will anyone ever start taking moral responsibilty?. > I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong: it's not > that FreeBSD works with Yahoo, but it's rather a matter of Yahoo > using FreeBSD.

There's not much that FreeBSD users or developers can do to prevent that, other than not talk about it. Which is pretty much what all large companies that have an "adult-themed" cash cows do (except, of course, the FreeBSD group is a non-profit). Having waded through the clubs a bit, it looks like Yahoo lets people create boards for whatever topic they want to talk about. Sex is something teenagers want to talk about, so they create clubs for it. I'd say it's clear that Yahoo is not "clearly and deliberately making such trash available", any more than the local schools - where the kids certainly talk about sex as well - are doing so. There are sound legal and financial reasons for Yahoo *not* to censor the clubs created by it's users. I'd like to point out that gay teenagers in particular may well have no one locally to talk to about such things, and the internet has almost universally been lauded for providing such a place. The real worry about such clubs is that they will naturally attract pedophiles (who probably didn't have a place to talk about sex as teenagers). The best way to deal with that is the same as any other danger the world presents our children - make sure they know about the danger: what it is, how to recognize it, and how to avoid it. In answer to your question - yes, I have children; two boys. My goal has always been that they understand the world and make informed decisions, not hide it from them so they don't recognize a potential danger until it's to late. Personally, I found explaining sex a *lot* easier than explaining the Maginot line. ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 09:12:40 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 51683 invoked by uid 100); 6 Nov 2000 17:12:40 -0000 From: Mike Meyer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14854.59016.102289.635909@guru.mired.org> Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:12:40 -0600 (CST) To: John Galt Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Unix In-Reply-To: <95598882@toto.iv> X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under 21.1 (patch 10) "Capitol Reef" XEmacs Lucid X-face: "5Mnwy%?j>IIV\)A=):rjWL~NB2aH[}Yq8Z=u~vJ`"(,&SiLvbbz2W`;h9L,Yg`+vb1>RG% *h+%X^n0EZd>TM8_IB;a8F?(Fb"lw'IgCoyM.[Lg#r\ Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG John Galt types: > http://www.sco.com/offers/ancient.html > BSD is NOT Unix, nor has it been since the AT&T suit.

It's been a *long* time since I've seen a printer that wouldn't respond to plain text. Most also either autodetect some kind of graphics format (PCL, ghostscript, etc) or let you imbed graphics commands in the text. However, if "lptest > /dve/lpt0" doesn't produce any output, you may have a printer that doesn't do plain text. > 2.I want to make my printer work. Try installing the apsfilter package/port. It uses ghostscript as a back end to talk to the printer, so things should work with that installed. Make sure you let it modify your printcap, and you'll have to use the lpr command to print, though. ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 09:30:46 -0800 (PST) Received: from dennis (blunted.out.in.a4.likewhoa.com [216.66.64.200]) by blizzard.lightning.net (8.11.0/8.11.0) with SMTP id eA6HUi917299 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 12:30:44 -0500 (EST) Reply-To: From: "Dennis S."

Unless the files are completely unrelated, use the SQL server. If there is some file written to by multiple transactions, you'll have to do the locking on it by hand, which could wind up single-threading your web application. A well-written SQL server deals with all that stuff for you, and the code is has been tested better than you're liable to want to test yours. If you use a server that supports transactions, you can make the same magic apply over an entire interaction, and back things out by simply aborting the transaction. ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 09:33:50 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (ajh4@localhost) by ritz.cec.wustl.edu (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id LAA18428; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:33:46 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:33:45 -0600 (CST) From: John Aughey To: Siegbert Baude Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Joystick problem In-Reply-To: <3A01FBC6.FA48325E@gmx.de> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 3 Nov 2000, Siegbert Baude wrote: > For the AWE 64 Gold I have only > > device pcm > device sbc > device joy > > in my kernel config.

First of all, as I am not subscribed to the mailing lists, please email me directly (sldwyer@bigpond.com) Right.. down to business... I have just put together an mp3 playing machine to stick in the boot of my car. Presently, it runs Linux, but I would love to 'upgrade' to FreeBSD :-) Really, the only thing stopping me is the lack of a driver for a HD44780 LCD display (runs off a parallel port) similar to Michael Selivanov's driver. (available from: http://www4.infi.net/~cpinkham/cajun/code/lcd-0.2c.tar.gz). The software used for control is Cajun (http://cajun.sourceforge.net). It is all written in perl, so i'm sure even I could get it running on FreeBSD. Michael's Driver emulates a Matrix-Orbital LCD display (an overly expensive serial LCD display), and provides a /dev/lcd which Cajun can talk to quite easily. I had a look in /usr/src/share/examples/ppi/ppilcd.c It appears to be something capable of talking to a HD44780 display, however, I was unable to compile it. make generated a pile of errors and bombed out. I would be most greatful if some one would port Michael's Driver, or provide some form of 'driver' that works that I can use. Unfortunately, I am unable to code in C, otherwise I would do it myself. I want to learn some C in the near future... but time is against me. I'll have to wait untill the TEE is over (in Australia thats the final High-school exams). One of the _many_ reasons I want to use FreeBSD over linux for this is because I am having stability problems with Linux. Its not as though I'm running cheap hardware either. Asus P55T2P4 motherboard, P200, Adaptec 1542CF (yes, slow ISA scsi card... but its stable under FreeBSD and works well), Vibra16 soundcard, Dec Tulip chipset nic, etc etc. another reason is i know FreeBSD like the back of my hand. I can do just about anything in it, where as Linux is a hell of a lot harder. Its much more dificult to set up, and the kernel... I want to throttle some one every time I have to rebuild one. Any way, I'm rambling on a bit now... so I think I will stop :-) Thanks in advance to any one who wants to help.

GNOME is an interesting beast, in that it is not a window manager, it is a "desktop environment." If you want to run GNOME, you still have to have a window manager. Enlightenment just happened to be the window manager set up as default. If you want something with a smalled footprint, try out Sawmill or Blackbox, I've heard good things about both.

My friends and I tend to use one called 'bpe' (binary program editor, IIRC). It is not in the base system, and it is not in the ports collection (yet?). In fact, we had a bit of trouble tracking down the newest version. We then changed it to use autoconf, and the result works pretty well on freebsd. One nice thing about it is that it edits files in place, which means you can edit huge files. One downside is that you can only OVERWRITE information in the file, you can't add or delete anything. I can dig that up if it seems interesting. -- --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 10:43:47 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from odin.acuson.com (odin.acuson.com [157.226.230.71]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6FF0437B4C5 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:43:44 -0800 (PST) Received: from acuson.com ([157.226.47.12]) by odin.acuson.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.54) with ESMTP id AAA739B; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:46:59 -0800 Message-ID: <3A06FB37.A6023AB@acuson.com> Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2000 10:40:55 -0800 From: David Johnson Organization: Acuson X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.5.1 sun4m) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Sue Blake Cc: Gary Kline , Giorgos Keramidas , Rasputin , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: better man pages [was: beginners with bsd] References: <000a01c043c3$942af1e0$1d24fc3e@knapp> <20001102093329.B14637@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org> <20001103003014.D4698@hades.hell.gr> <3A01F6D9.6320A0E5@acuson.com> <20001102170242.A14016@athena.sea.tera.com> <20001105130350.A7864@welearn.com.au> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sue Blake wrote: > I've been running a basic VMS to UNIX orientation course where we > compared man pages from several systems they were going to encounter: > FreeBSD, Slackware Linux, Dynix/PTX, Digital UNIX (now Tru64) > > We found the FreeBSD and Digital man pages to be much more readable and > informative than the others, and both had a consistency in structure > that made "getting the knack of it" fairly easy.

In the case of Linux, most everything is borrowed from elsewhere. Although the Slackware pages come up short, I don't think it's Patrick Volkerding's responsibility to write man pages for ld, sleep, mtools, or any other command that he did not write. One of the biggest problems in this area is that GNU doesn't just neglect writing man pages, they actively discourage it. Thus, people who use GNU as an example of behavior won't write man pages either. Simply volunteering to write a man page for a GNU program will not do any good, because the developer still needs to maintain it, or it will rapidly become obsolete. The best solution would be a utility that creates man pages from the same files that info pages are created from. Not all of the information in info needs to be included in the man page, but there should be enough that it is complete. With such a utility it becomes no work at all to keep the man pages current and on par with the info pages.

The main purpose was to provide me with an update record that had a date timestamp. A copy is at http://dsl1-160.dynacom.net/upworld. You need a copy of Ben Smithurst's cvsuplog from http://www.scientia.demon.co.uk/users/ben/software/cvsuplog/. That is the part I think is clever. There is a port called cvs2html and some others. I like the fact that these scripts connect my cvsup.log to http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/. It makes figuring out what was changed a click of the mouse. Then, all you need is 7MB of disk for each time you run it. Kent > > > > > > > I did copy GENERIC to MYKERNEL and edit it > > > appropriately.

Been a while since I worked on getting my Canon BJC-1000 to print, so I'm not sure what the current state of things, but Mike's right on the first steps, although apsfilter might need some tweaking, because... The most likely route for getting this little guy seems to be gimp-print, and that means folding a new driver into the ghostscript distribution. Go here: gimp-print.sourceforge.net. I'm probably going to try this again pretty soon too. If it works, be sure to report success or whatever to the gimp-print folks-- the BJC1000 seems always to be listed as "untested" meaning nobody in the project happens to have access to one..

Yes. 4.2-BETA is just a symbolic name for 4.1.1-STABLE before 4.2-RELEASE. It is intended to be a pre-RC1, and for the most part its only purpose is to test ports to make sure nothing has a dumb configure script (i.e. where it thinks 4.2 is not a valid FreeBSD version or something). The moral of the story is: don't trust naming schemes much, understand the purpose of the branch. -- wca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 11:44:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from parodius.com (pentarou.parodius.com [205.149.163.62]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F282337B4C5 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:44:13 -0800 (PST) Received: (from dpk@localhost) by parodius.com (8.11.1/8.11.1) id eA6JiDO44053 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:44:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dpk) Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:44:13 -0800 From: David Kirchner To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: CVSWeb questions (about old source, bad Id tags) Message-ID: <20001106114304.T40262@parodius.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi everyone, I've been trying to get an older version of the FreeBSD source tree to do some compares against a local tree, and I've had a hellofatime trying to get the right version of these files - CVSWeb/cvs seems to have some weird "bug" (or maybe it's supposed to work this way...) Check out: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/Makefile And click on download next to version 1.205 - the version that comes up is indeed 1.205 I believe, but the tag is 1.204 - making recursive diffs kinda a pain. Btw: This also affects cvsup, not just cvsweb. This version discrepency seems to go all the way up til 1.227 just before the $Id$->$FreeBSD$ switch. I'm guessing it is related. Anyone know if I can get the source with the correct version numbers with some other method? Or has anyone else run in to this and found a fix? I'm definitely open to the possibility that I am doing something wrong. :-) Thanks, - dpk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 11:49:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from daffy.napanet.net (daffy.napanet.net [206.81.96.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0D8A837B479 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:49:58 -0800 (PST) Received: from pavilion (dialup-napanet-206-81-101-72.napanet.net [206.81.101.72]) by daffy.napanet.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id LAA15484 for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:49:41 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <004401c0482a$c099b8e0$486551ce@pavilion> From: "Cal Cornils" To: Subject: Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 11:49:39 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG subscribe freebsd-questions To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 12: 3:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from exchange-bridge.epicor.com (mail.dataworks.com [63.64.20.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6E78D37B4FE for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 12:03:51 -0800 (PST) Received: by exchange-bridge.epicor.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 12:04:02 -0800 Message-ID: <454E2EA86391D21191830008C75D2EDC58F58A@exchange-corp.platsoft.com> From: Shanon Fernald To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: Hardware random number generator Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 12:03:49 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Actually, pretty much answered my own question doing a little research on the web.

A friend of mine has another PC running Windows 2000 Professional. We share the same PPP link, using my PC as a gateway. I want to dynamically limit the bandwidth between the two boxes. What I want to do is to equally divide the bandwidth if and only if both PCs are using the link, i.e. if my friend is reading a web page (thus not consuming bandwidth) and I'm downloading a file, I want to use all the available bandwidth. Conversely, If both of us are transferring data each of us should have half bandwidth available. Having a V90 PPP link, I don't know the connection speed each time I connect to the Internet, so I can't use the bw parameter to config pipes. What I want to do is to define two pipes (one for input and one for output) without bandwidth limits and then use the mask parameter of the queue command to create four flows (input and output for each PC) with equal weight.

It seems the CD was missing the fdwrite.exe program needed to write the floppy images from (Win)DO(w)S. So we used rawrite.exe from a Linux CD. No problemo. But... During the install, *after* the format, FreeBSD complains about the harddisk and crashes. Now my friend says he knows there's a bad block on the disk *somewhere*, but it seems to appear okay in some cases. My question: Does the FreeBSD 4.1.1-R install check bad blocks? And if it doesn't, is there a way to enable it?

I meant, is there a limit on a DIRECTORY having certain number of files/sub dirs under it? If yes, how does one find it out?

If > there is some file written to by multiple transactions, you'll have The files are related only by the fact that each user has a certain number of files, web page, uploaded files, mail etc. No apparent connection as such. So, should I use a top level dir per user and then all teh files in it per user or use a database? In teh flat file system, if a user has an average of 200 files (one per mail, one per page, and some uploaded files/pics, and I have 10,000 users that is 2,000,000 files + the dirs/subdirs! If I put stuff in DB, it might come down to 20-50 big fat files. I could get a 70G drive SCSI to handle the big files. I hope FreeBSD can take 70+ GB SCSI drives, can it? > If you use a server that supports transactions, you can make the same > magic apply over an entire interaction, and back things out by simply > aborting the transaction. MySql has no transactions :-( Also, is it true that files are searched for in a dir sequentially? I mean if you 5000 files in a dir, and do cat filename, will the system read the dir sequentially to find where the filename is, and then get its inode ... ? This would mean that the more files you have in a dir, the slower the access will become? Thanks, Shashi __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores.

If you updated to RELENG_4 and didn't build your world before you did a buildkernel would be one answer. It would be entirely different for RELENG_3 where you may not have done a config and a make depend first.

[...] Each invocation > incremented the port no. by one. 33434 is the default *base* port number. But as far as I understand the man page for traceroute (it's not entirely clear), the port number is incremented for each new hop that traceroute attempts. The following snippet of `man traceroute` seems to imply this behavior: Traceroute hopes that nothing is listening on UDP ports base to base + nhops - 1 at the destination host (so an ICMP PORT_UNREACH- ABLE message will be returned to terminate the route tracing). Since the default maximum nhops (number of hops) is 30, try opening up UDP ports 33434 through 33464 and see if that doesn't fix it. When I was troubleshooting firewall rules recently, I found a useful technique: do an 'ipfw zero', then the command that is giving you trouble, then `ipfw -t show`. This will show you which rules are blocking the packets you want to pass. > Even when I invoked traceroute with -P UPD and -p 33434 the source port > was >35000. ??? Sorry, this part of the question has me baffled.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG After using FreeBSD for about 2 weeks now, I've decided to delve into compiling my own kernel. I run off an Abit BP6 with (2) Celeron 433's and 320MB RAM. The BP6 has an onboard UltraATA 66 controller made my Highpoint [HPT366]. With my GENERIC install, it probes on startup and atapci1 and atapci2 are "set" [?] to my Highpoint controller. Flipping through my "The Complete FreeBSD" I couldn't find a "value" or whatnot to specifically set for compiling my custom kernel. My questions: 1) What exactly does the stuff the probe on startup mean? 2) atapci1 & 2 are called ____ 3) Is there a way to capture the output of the probe to a text file? Do I even care? 4) Am I wasting my time here? I'm still not certain whether or not I need to even care about this. However in The Complete FreeBSD, Greg mentions that one of the key points to having a custom kernel is so that it loads faster, not having probe. Additionally, my Mozilla M17 install from package is HORRID!!! It's dog ass slow, [as I type, the characters take about 2 minutes to display. It takes about 1 min to start it, then when clicking links it will hang, or dump its core. I don't understand, I've installed and reinstalled it many times, all with the same results. Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm looking forward to saving up for an $80 FreeBSD jacket so I can be THE nerd on campus =) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 6 15:47:16 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lvcablemodem.com (hams2.lvcablemodem.com [24.234.0.76]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D074137B4FE for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 15:47:14 -0800 (PST) Received: from dhcp196.122.lvcm.com ([24.234.122.196]) by lvcablemodem.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.517.51); Mon, 6 Nov 2000 15:46:22 -0800 Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 15:46:29 -0800 (PST) From: Chris Angell To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Mail troubles 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 thought I had added the domain name in correctly to all the necessary files. -------- The original message was received at Mon, 6 Nov 2000 15:35:01 -0800 (PST) from oe19.law7.hotmail.com [216.33.236.123] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 554 MX list for shakespearsworld.com. points back to redqueen.chrisangell.com 554 ...

Intel 82802 random number generator found on i810, i815, i820, and i840 based systems. So that would mean it would be relatively easy to get support for it in FreeBSD for someone that knows how. (Not I said the fly) a quick google search found: webnz.com/robert/hwrng.htm www.protego.se/products_en.htm I don't think this last one has any opensource support, but I didn't check too hard.

There are some hacks to make common operations perform better than that (i.e. - ls is O(n), not O(n**2)), but that performance hit is liable to be more of a problem for you than any directory limits. I'd say your problem is large enough that you'd be crazy not using a database server, with the user being an index so you can get quick access to it. If you really want to go with flat files, look into a directory hashing scheme so that you have 100 users in each of 100 directories instead of one directory with 10,000 users in it. ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 16:20:45 -0800 (PST) Received: from c270929a ([24.17.239.104]) by mail.rdc1.va.home.com (InterMail vM.4.01.03.00 201-229-121) with SMTP id <20001107002044.VRVA12834.mail.rdc1.va.home.com@c270929a> for ; Mon, 6 Nov 2000 16:20:44 -0800 Message-ID: <000801c04850$70ef7a20$68ef1118@cdrrpd1.ia.com> From: "troy" To: Subject: Install Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 18:19:49 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0005_01C0481E.260A4580" 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_0005_01C0481E.260A4580 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable When running through a basic "novice" install- ad0: WRITE command timeout - resetting ata0: resetting devices .. done no idea what's going on here so some help would be greatly apprciated thanks!

Is it possible to regain access, if you start X as root (which you shouldn´t do normally, of course?) I´ve read two explanations so far, the second one being more plausible to me: - A problem with the correct permissions for some kde executables - A problem with the correct password libraries linked to the kde binaries. Look if your root password is different to your user password in terms of DES vs. MD5. This is true for me and I think it was O. Hartmann, who stated this first on this list. The only solution I know about is switching to KDE 2, which is a big download and a long compile run, but it´s worth it, I think, if you want to stick with KDE.

Spontanously it came up my mind to set up a transperent proxy using ipfw. That is an easy sloution, and I would know how to set it up and maintain it. Now my question are, since I haven't tested it on a big network: Would it work fine even with a large number of computers without slowing down? What kind of hardware would you recommend, since I think I don't have to use a really fast machine? Would you rather set up a standard router using routed. Where are the dis-/advantages?

This will appear for all AWE cards, as they give more than eight suggestions for PnP configs, where FreeBSD only expects up to eight. But this does no harm at all. BTW, this was answered some times on this list, so it would be good to learn how to search the web for the archives of the lists. You can start on the FreeBSD page http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists or e.g on www.deja.com/usenet or any other suited search engine. I can see nothing special with your dmesg, very similar to mine indeed (I also own a BX-base motherboard). There seem to be no conflicts for IRQ nor adresses with your Soundblaster.

One of the things I really like is the tons of _quality_ documentation available for FreeBSD. I have both Lehey's book ("The Complete FreeBSD") and the print version of The FreeBSD Handbook. The questions you raise are addressed in both of these. If you are still interested in a more formal training, BSDI apparently has a FreeBSD training class coming up in January.

Jim,

You want to learn ALL of it?  Some of us have been at it for years and believe me nobody knows all of it.  Best way to start though is by buying a CD ROM -- either FreeBSD or (sorry for the heresy on this mailing list) one of the Linux variants.  Then install it on your computer and you're on your way.

Downloading is too messy and complicated, for $39 bucks or so just buy a CD.  Save you a lot of trouble.

Steve

See http://www.lemis.com/email.html As to the mess, I'd say it's much easier if you can dedicate a machine to playing around with FreeBSD. Find an old PC (486? Pentium 90?) which is no longer useful for Some Other OS (tm), and dedicate it to FreeBSD. I did this 2.5 years ago, and now that machine is a firewall/router/web server/mail server etc. > I am very excited in learning all aspects of Unix.

You can't learn "all" unless you're much smarter and more motivated (and have lots more time) than most people. The body of knowledge is *enormous.* For a start, try http://www.ugu.com/ - they actually have a "tip of the day" section. Also, don't underestimate the value of a good book. If I could only have one unix book, it would be _Essential_System_Administration_ by Frisch (O'Reilly). Also invaluable: _The_Complete_FreeBSD_ by Greg Lehey (Walnut Creek); _TCP/IP_Network_Administration_ by Hunt (O'Reilly); _DNS_and_BIND_ by Albitz & Liu (O'Reilly).

The problem was fixed when I renamed /tmp to /oldtmp and then did a symlink from /tmp to /usr/tmp so all /tmp files actually went into /usr/tmp - There are probably complications doing this if you ever have to run in single-user mode - but you could always put /tmp back if needed - just an idea - In my case with realplayer - maybe I have the same / or a different problem as you - but I tried my previously successful idea with no resulting fix.

Yes, the man page is wrong. What stripe size did you use? You don't want a power of 2 as an interleave factor; that will leave all superblocks on one drive, at least for 2 disks. > You may also want to strip swap like this (/etc/fstab): > > /dev/ad0s2b none swap sw 0 0 > /dev/ad2s1b none swap sw 0 0 I'm not sure what you're saying here. > I may have had to fiddle with disklabel when installing, but it > wasn't a big deal, I think I just followed ccdconfig(8). > > BTW, does anybody have numbers on IDE disk speeds to help decide if a > third disk would max-out a 33MHz UDMA IDE controller? You can't put a third disk on an IDE controller. But even the second one will give you serious performance hits, since the transfers are serialized. It's been a while since I've compared ccd and Vinum performance. Vinum used to be much better, but some problems in ccd have been fixed. You get many other advantages from Vinum.

I bought a cd-burner, and needed to move one of my disks. Well, I understand this causes problems, and I also have figured out that the fixit.flp can help me get this back in order. Anyway, I moved my secondary master (/usr) to my primary slave, I get to the Fixit# prompt, but I have no idea what to do. I have read through the mailing list, and I know it can be done, but I can't find out how to do it. Could someone help? > Thanks > Jason > > P.S. sorry if this wasn't enough information, I've been running freebsd for awhile, but I'm still a newby, probably always will be ;). Actually, you probably do not need to go to the fixit.flp if I understand you correctly. You moved your secondary master IDE HDD to the primary slave position. You said /usr is on this drive, but where is the root partition (/), that is what is important. If the root partition in not on that drive and did not move, just boot into single- user mode (if you tried to boot to multi-user it will fail and drop to single-user anyway). mount(8) the root partition read-write, and then just edit /etc/fstab. If your devices are statically numbered, you'd change the line like, /dev/ad2s1e /usr ufs rw 0 2 To, /dev/ad1s1e /usr ufs rw 0 2 If your root partition moved, things are more fun. At the very first sign of the twirling doo-dad at boot, hit a key. Specify the new boot device, 1:ad(1,a)/kernel And again boot into single user. Fix /etc/fstab and then specify the correct boot device in /boot/loader.conf. -- Crist J.

Mozilla ask me for 0.5.3_1 version but, if i install them with make,make install, Mozilla seems to not find them. The other libraries like gtk and glib seems to work fine if i install them with pkg_add (not with make,make install), so know somebody where can i find the ORBit 0.5.3_1 package or why this happens? (I have the 0.5.4 package but this Mozilla version seems to work only with 0.5.3_1 ORBit version).

You must be using XFree 4.x for this to work though, as this mouse technically has 7 buttons, and 3.x only supports up to 5. The mouse section in your XF86Config should look like this: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" Option "Buttons" "7" EndSection You have to map the mousewheel out of the way as shown, as otherwise the extra buttons aren't detected. Now we can swap stuff back though. Either add this line to your .xinitrc: xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5" or add this line to your ~/.Xmodmap: pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5. That's it. The side buttons will be 6 and 7 now, and mousewheel scrolling will work as ever. You can bind the buttons to do whatever you like in your favorite windowmanager and applications.

I use the exact same mouse in xfree86 4.01 in linux, with no problems. does it have something to do with the mouse daemon that freebsd runs? i noticed it is using moused -t intellimouse -p /dev/psm0 for its syntax.. i tried setting the dev to /dev/psm0, but no luck either. thanks for any help 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 Tue Nov 7 6:13:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from aristotle.networkintelligence.com (unknown [38.196.126.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8BA1437B4C5 for ; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 06:13:38 -0800 (PST) Received: from satx.rr.com (mogul [192.168.2.199]) by aristotle.networkintelligence.com (8.9.0/8.9.1) with ESMTP id IAA07117; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 08:13:35 -0600 Message-ID: <3A080E0F.C672E3F@satx.rr.com> Date: Tue, 07 Nov 2000 08:13:35 -0600 From: Jason Hunt X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16 i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Marc G.

I know, that I can convert the image into BMP/PCX, and use the splash_X module, but I can load this image only at boot. Are there any method (on 4.1R), which makes me change the image on the fly (without reboot) I tried: kldload splash_bmp && kldload vesa && kldload -t splash_image_data filename, but kldload doesn't know this form, it's available only in the boot loader. 2) At the past, somewhere I found a matrix screen saver module. Do anybody knows, where can I get it? Please reply to my address, too, as I'm not on the list. Thanks!

I have an Alpha server 1000A 4/266 with an NCR PCI SCSI controller, and an on-board qlogic controller. The thing is, I can't get any of the 4.1.x stable branch to install using the normal methods, for none of the devices are found, though I have 4 Seagate SCSI drives that are detected in the Alpha BIOS. Tru64 Unix 5.0 and 5.1 works fine on this machine. Also, I manually expanded the binaries from a snapshot of 5.x and the machine booted as far as possible without having the root partition mounted. It took half an hour to detect that there was no root partition to mount. Only with the discs attached to the qlogic controller did it even give me an error. When the discs were on the NCR controller, the machine froze at "waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle". I want to get this machine to work with FreeBSD! Any one have any advice, or additional questions, let me know. Thanks! John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products.

First, the following is how I am attempting to set up my network: One FreeBSD box acting as gateway and firewall with two ethernet cards. The outside ethernet card is xl0 with a static ip address. The internal nic card is dc0 with ip 192.168.0.1. One Debian linux box internally with one ethernet card at ip 192.168.0.2. Both machines are connected to a hub. The xl0 interface on the BSD box is connected to my dsl modem. However, I cannot ping either machine from either machine. The symptoms that I am observing are: when I ping from the linux machine to the BSD box, the light on the hub blinks. However, when I ping from the BSD box to the linux machine, the light on the hub does not blink at all. Also, when I try to add 192.168 as a net to the BSD box's routing table, it adds 192.168.0.1 to the lo0 interface automagically. I don't know why. Of course, thanks in advance for any and all help with this frustrating little problem.

The X/Open group will authorize the use of the UNIX label for conformant operating systems that provide test results and $$$ to X/Open. This is not the same as Unix. I'm unsure as to the official state of this, but the opinion of the X/Open lawyers feel that the trademark of Unix has not been protected by its prior holders and would probably not be upheld in a challenge, so they trademarked UNIX. (In the US, trademarks ARE case sensitive.) For those unfamiliar with US trademarks, they are valid when used in trade and when they are perceived by the public and something other than a generic term. This has resulted in the loss of trademark status for things like Formica. I suspect Kleenex is totally indefensible, but no one has ever challenged it. I also note that the box FreeBSD comes in say "BSD UNIX" on it. I don't know if this means that BSDI has gotten X/Open sanction or not. R.

Found some news on Tomshardware and zdnn.com that made me think. Here's the quote: On the question to fitting a x86 cpu from AMD on the Mac, instead of the PowerPC G4 chip: "Rebuilding the kernel would not be too difficult because Mac OS X is built on the same Mach kernel that NeXT used," he said. NeXT Software Inc.'s OpenStep operating system ran on x86 hardware." What? Isn't the Mac OS kernel based on the FreeBSD (or at least the BSD kernel)?? Are Steve Jobs so afraid of mentioning that they have gotten their ide from the BSD community because of the Linux hype that's going through the world today? Why mentioning the OpenStep operating system at all???

I have problems to setup a firewall on FreeBSD-4.1., though following the directions in the FreeBSD handbook. I made a special (e.g. simple) test configuration, shown in the following draft (firewall between two clients, shown with abbreviated IP address / MAC address): client-0 firewall client-1 .111.29/:4b:a8----------.111.9/:97:55 .111.9/:9b:1f-----------.112.50/:a2:59 Because of the kernel variable net.inet.ip.forwarding set to 1, i think, that packets arriving on one firewall NIC should be forwarded to the other NIC, considering the following configuration: The firewall routing table: Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire -------------------------------------------------------------------------- default xxx.yyy.111.1 UGSc 0 0 fxp0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 0 lo0 xxx.yyy link#2 UC 0 0 fxp1 => xxx.yyy.111/25 link#1 UC 0 0 fxp0 => xxx.yyy.111.1 link#1 UHLW 1 0 fxp0 => -------------------------------------------------------------------------- xxx.yyy.111.29 ...:a2:59 UHLW 1 21 fxp0 725 xxx.yyy.112.50 ...:4b:a8 UHLW 0 7 fxp1 83 The first five routings are the default routings, the last two routings were added, when i did a ping from the clients to the firewall. These last two routings (surprisingly ?) have the schema: dest = ; gateway = <*client* mac address> ^^^^^^ The routing table of client0 (client1 is analogue; the firewall should be transparent, so i dont want to write it into the routings): Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire ------------------------------------------------------------------- ...111.0 ...111.29 ...default ...111.29 The firewall rules i tried were: 1. allow all from any to any 2. allow all from client0 to client1 in via NIC0 allow all from -"- out via NIC1 allow all from client1 to client0 in via NIC1 allow all from -"- out via NIC0 In both cases pinging between firewall and client0/1 works, but pinging between the two clients fails (in case of *directly* connected clients (without firewall), ping works with the above configuration). "tcpdump" (running on the firewall) shows, that the ping request reaches the firewall at the appropriate NIC, but there's no output to the other NIC (i.e. no forwarding). PS: Another strange thing: If the firewall NICs are both set to the ip address ...111.9 via *rc.conf*, the pinging from client1 to the firewall via NIC-1 does *not* work after booting. But if i *then* set the ip address manually (ifconfig), the following error message appears ...: /kernel: rtinit: wrong ifa (0xc0e00480) was (0xc0e00700) ... but ping works (!). Any suggestions ? Thanks in advance: Toni.

I was going to drop in a new IDE drive, but thought I'd ask if this problem was not related to hardware. thanks in advance, -- Darryl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 7 10:30:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from karon.dynas.se (karon.dynas.se [192.71.43.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4B40637B4D7 for ; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 10:30:06 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 29517 invoked from network); 7 Nov 2000 18:29:33 -0000 Received: from spirit.sto.dynas.se (HELO spirit.dynas.se) (172.16.1.10) by karon.sto.dynas.se with SMTP; 7 Nov 2000 18:29:33 -0000 Received: (qmail 21910 invoked from network); 7 Nov 2000 18:29:54 -0000 Received: from explorer.rsa.com (10.81.217.59) by spirit.dynas.se with SMTP; 7 Nov 2000 18:29:54 -0000 Received: (from mikko@localhost) by explorer.rsa.com (8.11.0/8.11.0) id eA7ITUn75282; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 10:29:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mikko) Date: Tue, 7 Nov 2000 10:29:30 -0800 (PST) From: Mikko Tyolajarvi Message-Id: <200011071829.eA7ITUn75282@explorer.rsa.com> o: lauasanf@bellsouth.net Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU Newsgroups: local.freebsd-questions References: <20001107102617.A1146@devel.cotharyus.net> X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.6 (NOV) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In local.freebsd-questions you write: >On some advice, I started looking through LINT.

NeXT Software Inc.'s > OpenStep operating system ran on x86 hardware." I believe NeXT used the Mach 2.5, while OS X uses Mach 3.0. There was a company in Berkeley called Xinu (UNIX spelt backwards), which offered BSD running on either Mach 2.5 or 3.0. They had real problems with Mach 3.0. I am sure Apple has overcome these. NeXT was really loved by those who used it, and OS X appears to be an update of NeXT.

Anyone care to confirm and/or explain why? A parallel build should work for modules as well. The modules were part of a make buildworld once. It worked then. The modules have been moved to be part of make buildkernel. It may be broken now. In that case it should be fixed. There's no technical reason to disallow parallel builds. If there are, then a .NOTPARALLEL pseudo target should be added to the corresponding makefiles to force make to do a sequential build. Makoto-san mentioned there's a problem with 3dfx. Is this still the case or has it been resolved? > I see the > following in the man page: It doesn't make sense to quote the manpage for make. It's the makefile that determines whether or not a parallel make will succeed or not. Consequently, it's the developer who controls whether a parallel make should be allowed or not. -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 7 12: 6:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailout01.sul.t-online.com (mailout01.sul.t-online.com [194.25.134.80]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A250137B479 for ; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 12:06:48 -0800 (PST) Received: from fwd06.sul.t-online.com by mailout01.sul.t-online.com with smtp id 13tF11-0005bz-07; Tue, 07 Nov 2000 21:06:43 +0100 Received: from tanja.ncptiddische.net (520077084314-0001@[62.158.151.21]) by fwd06.sul.t-online.com with esmtp id 13tF0e-0hFLtYC; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 21:06:20 +0100 Received: from grazia.ncptiddische.net (grazia.ncptiddische.net [192.168.0.2]) by tanja.ncptiddische.net (8.11.1/8.11.1) with ESMTP id eA7K9r014822 for ; Tue, 7 Nov 2000 21:10:30 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from nils@nightcastleproductions.org) Date: Tue, 7 Nov 2000 21:06:04 +0100 (CET) From: Nils Holland To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Reading out raw audio Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Sender: 520077084314-0001@t-dialin.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi folks, well, just a short question: Which software (if any) from the FreeBSD ports collection is able to read out raw audio data from CDs using an IDE CD-Rom drive? I saw that dagrab is able to create wave-files from CD audio tracks, but I need raw audio files that I can burn onto CD using burncd. Looking at the Makefile of cdd, I saw that it doesn't seem to work with FreeBSD > 4.0., and I'm running 4.1.1-STABLE. So, what do I do now? I noticed that there are probably a lot IDE-CD-Writing questions asked here on this list, so I'm sorry that I'm asking my question here. But I really couldn't find a solution to the problem myself yet - and I thought someone would probably be able to give me a hint.

But after only 10 processes inited I failed to get semaphore cluster (2 sems in size) with such an amazing error "No space left on device". What device? What does it mean no space left - is 10 sem clusters some IPC limit??? Tis nonsense. Or I'm just walking around something obvious? Sorry if I bother all of you too much,ppl, but I'm really in trouble with all that IPC stuff. Hanging around for a second week with no progress and even any idea how to get out.

You're obviously going to run into problems (who doesn't?) but it's a lot easier to get help for a specific problem than just asking "teach me how to program in unix." I find that Kernighan & Ritchie's "The C Programming Language" is an invaluable reference asset, but beyond that, I tend to use online references (many of which are quite good). Additionally, forums like usenet and irc allow you to put the knowledge of others at your fingertips. Have fun.

There is the category of media studies, which explore more the role of = the media in the modern nation state setting, and the relationships = between media, education, democracy and the construction of modernity. = Whilst a critique of the type of developmental determinism that emerges = from this approach is present in this literature, such notions seem to = very much current practice relating to ICT (information and = communications technology) by large actors such as the world bank = (Woods, 1993) who are already coming under fire for their inappropriate, = technically oriented approaches to this area. The early writers in this = literature, such as Daniel Lerner, 1957, stress the importance of = literacy as a prerequisite to expansion of the (Mass) media.(Hedebro, = 1982) Another area of the literature focuses on development communication as a = discipline, moving the discussion more onto content, and to specific = approaches within projects and programmes in this area (Hornik, 1988). = Here the educational theme of modernisation approaches are taken up, = along side a locally appropriate methods discourse. Following on from = this come discussions of the cultural dimensions of communication for = development. (Boeren, 1994) Current Work On the internet, current work in progress can be found on the UN FAO = website, focussing on local chat networks between farmers in south = America. Also The WB is focussing on large call centre technologies in = order to spread technical capability in Developing countries. Also the = International Development Research Centre(IDRC) has a series of papers = on ICT's which criticise the WB approach of involving $40 000 initial = investments in white elephant high end call centres, advocating socially = appropriate approaches such as Grameen Telecom's $600 Village Pay Phone, = based on cell-phone technology, and feasible as a micro-credit based = enterprise. They also discuss the use of VHS technology for extending = data transfer beyond the payphone net in an inexpensive way, which has = been explored in South Asia. Finally they include a paper on evaluating = ICT based projects. Visualising the project cycle The project might begin with an investigation into and gathering = together of the information that might be required in order to start up = an NGO in a developing country. This might include company and = charities regulations, simple accounting techniques, fundraising advice = and support, techniques for holding meetings (PRA as well as traditional = chair/agenda/minutes models.) A list of contacts broken down by region = etc... This information gathering may involve approaching NGO's already working = with these issues, academic writings etc... The efficacy of working = with these materials on a distance learning basis also needs to be = evaluated in some way. Secondly the technical aspect needs to be approached. My vision is to = use low end computer equipment that is going out of date in the = developed world as a technical base. I imagine this equipment being = used with software based on a simplified form of Linux, the open source = operating system maintained by a community of ideologically oriented IT = enthusiasts. I also see the VHS data transfer technical solution as a = good means of extending these technical capabilities where the phone = network has not yet reached. This is all far too much for one person or project to manage, so I need = to approach two sets of people. Firstly NGO's working with distributing = dated computer equipment to the developing world, such as Computeraid in = the UK. Secondly to find a group of idealogically minded programmers = who would produce a simplified version of Linux that would run on a text = and simple graphics only basis on a wide range of hardware, with a very = simple set up sequence. My personal discussions with IT enthusiasts = indicate such a technical solution is not at all unfeasible, or so time = consuming to generate as all the components of it already exist. Finally the implementation of this project and a clear consideration of = target groups. At this stage I imagine this project being targeted at = southern NGO's who would use the extra technical capacity to support the = start-up of membership based organisations within their areas. = Hopefully in turn a diffusion of IT skills and equipment to MO's might = occurr, improving their organisational and communications capacity, and = providing marketable skills within the communities. The issue of what = people will do with these skills IF we mange to get this far will have = to be considered. At the moment I imagine the materials will be = translated into locally appropriate languages, and I hope to gain = professional help in producing culturally appropriate formats. Areas of work where IT capacity may be particularly "Developmental" One area where IT may be particularly useful is in allowing local = organisations to find out about their legal and political rights. Along = side providing a general administrative platform, IT may provide access = to legal information, legal advice networks, a means of publicising = infringements on rights, and a means raising local level issues up the = political agenda. If international moves towards "rights to = development" start to gain force, such local level advocacy may become = increasingly worthwhile.=20 Working within the Aid chain: the reasons why=20 It would be wise to work with this as a means of producing self reliance = closer to the beneficiary end of the aid chain, rather than trying to = disseminate it to communities nor connected to the Aid networks, at = least as a starting point for the work. The reasons are based on the = technical difficulty of facilitating people to use IT for NGO startup = and also the political difficulties associated with such a project. Dealing with the technical difficulties firstly, it is widely understood = that information technology is unapproachable for those not familiar = with it, and perhaps that setting up an NGO is most easily done where = working examples are available as a guide to practice. For both of = these reasons it seems wise to introduce such a project in an = environment where support and advice is available to the beneficiaries, = rather than expecting them to go it alone during the early stages. This type of work seems particularly prone to subversion by what has = been termed in the literature as local elites, meaning those who enjoy a = greater than average level of social influence within a social space = that the beneficiaries are dependent on. Robert Chambers discusses the = types of projects likely to meet with political opposition from these = types of groups, and mentions those that introduce the poor to new = productive assets, and those that politically or legally empower the = poor (Chambers, 1983, p. 160-165). Since the hope is that this project = will attempt to do all of these things, the risk of political opposition = to these aims, be it through attempting to co-opt the resources on offer = to better off groups, or merely attempting to block the progress of the = work, are high. As such, working through aid chains that already = grapple with these problems, and hopefully have the necessary local = support to overcome such obstacles, seems essential. =20 Bibliography: Boeren, A.; In other words... the cultural dimension of communication = for development; CESO, the Hague, 1994.

My company is sending me there (although they're being mighty cheap about it) for two days. I'll be driving up on Wednesday afternoon. I'll be there for the last two days of the show (should be less hectic, although this is my first Comdex so I don't know how they are). I was wondering if anyone of you were going to Comdex next week and what days will you be there? I'm also curious to know if BSD will be represented at Comdex since Linux seems to be pretty much well represented.

I think we need a sysvipc(9) manpage explaining the kernel config(8) options along with the sysctl options available at runtime. Xrefs from the various man2 pages would help people find it.

It's alot better overall, but: konsole fails if started from the task bar, the 'run' menu, or at startup by the system. When started by the task bar it gets a SIGABRT, and nothing to informative is revealed looking at the Crash Hanlder's backrace. (at least not to me, so I've included it at the bottom of this email.) The second problem appears to be with konsole_grantpty. When started from an xterm, which launches just fine from run, konsole pops up as expected, works just fine, but this error displays on the controlling xterm: $konsole konsole_grantpty: cannot determine the name of device. konsole: chownpty failed for device /dev/ptyp2::/dev/ttyp2. : This means the session can be eavesdroped. : Make sure konsole_grantpty is installed in : /usr/local/bin/ and setuid root.

Perhaps someone here has some suggestions on how to resolve this problem? I think it's safe to assume that this is a fBSD port problem and not something that's broken in kde2. Interestingly enough, in the kde2-prerelease it was working just fine, even though I belive that I still had the problem with the konsole_grantpty.

No problem at all. In FreeBSD a slice is separated in different partitions numbered from a to h. "c" has the special meaning of complete disk. So acd0a and acd0c will be pretty the same.

When a trademark owner makes no effort to protect the mark, then they lose the ability to do so later.

My bet is that if it ever went to court, it could be argued and won that unix (any capitalization) IS a generic term now, and is no longer a valid copyright. Especially given that the Complete FreeBSD says right on the cover "The Free Version of Berkeley UNIX" As far as I know that has not been contested.

So like I said before, I would be led to believe that them not puruing the use of their former trademark in a single widely marketed product would mean that the trademark is now indefensible. That could just be wishful thinking (that we could stop going over this stupid FreeBSD is not UNIX(tm) crap). I have not found a good definitive reference on it.

Not a good idea. Both POP and IMAP protocols have features that let you avoid sending passwords in the clear. Fetchmail implements a fair collection of them from the client side.

Since I want to build a lab running on FreeBSD, I change the rc.conf file. I add .etc/lab.conf at the end. But I make some mistake in the lab.conf file, I lose ;; in the case statement. Then when I reboot, system tell me there is mistake in lab.conf and then ask me to run /bin/sh, then there is the # prompt, and no login. So I could not login as root or other users. I try to do the following: 1. rewrite the lab.conf on the other PC, then try to overwrite it, but it tell me the lab.conf is readonly file system 2. I try to run vi to modify the lab.conf on the local PC, but vi doesn't run. What I should do? Thank you.

you guys have been great with your help = on this=20 issue..and I
really hate the fact that I need help = with this --=20 not sure
why this is not = working.. 
 
I have the following in my=20 /etc/X11/XF86Config:

I suspect not, as it never happend with AbiSuite, which used to be GNOME office suite. And StarOffice is a *lot* bigger than AbiSuite. OpenOffice is going to be worth a look. StarOffice is a nice product, if only it didn't insist on running VNC to a Windows box running the binaries ... oops, sorry, it just *looks* like that.

The one recommended by Anthony may be the best to use in conjunction with reading FreeBSD sources. You do program in C right? Almost all of the operating system code in FreeBSD is in C. If you don't have much C programming experience then I would say "The C programming Language 2nd Ed." by Kernighan and Ritchie is a must. It is the best written book I know. It is terse and complete at the same time. Almost every sentance in the book is useful. In disagreement wiht the quote below, I think you really can learn at least a very good start to programming from a book. (Especially K&R). But eventually I think reading code is the only way. Here's a quote from "How to Become a Hacker" by Eric Raymond http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html He extolls OpenSource in general but specifically Linux. "I can't give complete instructions on how to learn to program here -- it's a complex skill. But I can tell you that books and courses won't do it (many, maybe most of the best hackers are self-taught). You can learn language features -- bits of knowledge -- from books, but the mind-set that makes that knowledge into living skill can be learned only by practice and apprenticeship. What will do it is (a) reading code and (b) writing code. Learning to program is like learning to write good natural language. The best way to do it is to read some stuff written by masters of the form, write some things yourself, read a lot more, write a little more, read a lot more, write some more ... and repeat until your writing begins to develop the kind of strength and economy you see in your models. Finding good code to read used to be hard, because there were few large programs available in source for fledgeling hackers to read and tinker with. This has changed dramatically; open-source software, programming tools, and operating systems (all built by hackers) are now widely available. " Good luck, welcome away from the Dark Side 8^) Tim Here are some other books you may be interested in: "The design and implementation of the 4.4BSD operating system" by Mckusick et al --a very good book about the internals of the BSD kernel.

The vendor doesn't sell the FreeBSD version to the public. You can get it from the FreeBSD mall at . For what it's worth, I'm running it on an SMPNG -current kernel, but it runs fine on -stable as well. Come to think of it, the -stable system doesn't have the kernel option for linux compatability turned on.

FreeBSD insists that /dev/ptyp? are not tty's I guess. Working around that gave me other errors that I've not tracked down yet having to do with calls to waitpid() which return an error of ECHILD, even though the child was successfully run (my modified konsole_grantpty).

See below for my new settings. This got the redirect working fine at my office on a DSL connection but when I took the box on-site it just wouldn't work with the other ISP's numbers. It's a wireless ISP, but that shouldn't matter according to the ISP. My initial plan was that since we really just wanted our other site on the same ISP to have access to the inside servers and not public traffic I was going to get them setup on a quick (yeah right) redirect then move them to a VPN solution after I gathered some information on it, see my post at net@freebsd.org "Re: Tips, How-To on VPN ?" So I set up a VPN tunnel using pipsec and its working fine. I didn't get to research it as much as I wanted and will have scrounge some test boxes to try it with ipsec but the users are happy they can move files across at 1mbs rather than 56k modems. Regards, John. P.S. to the E man at the Big O the -u didn't help at tempo either, oh well just hope Dave doesn't want to access the Mac server from home anytime soon.

But you said tis done for ppl not making hundreds of semaphores and I need some really huge ammount - up to 8192 double-sem clusters to sinchronize my multiply connection-dependant processes that use mmaped pages (which I had to use instead of threads that are much more common for me as I was bread with OS/2). Hence I'm worring if I'm not breaking some hard system limits in this case? By the way, when I tried UNIX sockets on the role I got a serious memory leak in a simple test program ans what embarrased me most of all that all that lost mem wasn't released after prog was terminated and top reported is as resident (!).

You need to let out the UDP packets, but then you need to let the ICMP responses back in. Specifically, you need to allow the 'time exceeded in transit' (type 11, code 0) and 'port unreachable' (type 3, code 3) messages. Actually, I'd just let both types of time exceeded through and all of the unreachables in, $fwcmd add pass icmp from any to any icmptypes 3,11 in via ${oif} -- Crist J.

You should not have to add that route manually. It should be handled automatically by ifconfig(8). How are you configuring the interfaces in rc.conf? That is, what are the ifconfig_ lines?

Updated patch is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~alfred/uthread_sysvipc.diff it's for releng4, it makes the FreeBSD threads library poll on the semaphores and msgqueues, not very good, but if/when I get a chance I may try to hook kqueue into some of the sysv IPC stuff so that we don't need to poll the primatives. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

I didn't take a deep look into your debug infos, but I had a similar problem (posted yesterday to freebsd-isp and freebsd-scsi). In my case it seems that vinum's message was faulty. I just had to start the second subdisk seperatly, then it revived and afterwards everything was fine in the "up" state. I suppose that vinum wanted to tell me, that the second plex was not consistent with the first. Of course the volume works in both cases, whether the second plex is available or not, that's what you intend in the mirror configuration. This is an excerpt of the vinum commands I used: create -v init -v -w mirror.p0 init -v -w mirror.p1 start mirror start mirror.p1.s0 <--- before doing this, the second plex was shown as "faulty" This was my vinum config file (taken from the mirror example in the manpage): # vinum config file drive d1 device /dev/da1a drive d2 device /dev/da2a volume mirror plex org concat sd length 0 drive d1 plex org concat sd length 0 drive d2 Cheers Ulrich -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ulrich Gruenebaum grueneba@luzi.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 2:30:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl [131.155.56.216]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D001437B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 02:30:47 -0800 (PST) Received: (from karelj@localhost) by wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA63301; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 11:29:49 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from karelj) Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 11:29:32 +0100 From: "Karel J.

The problem is that the player refuses to fetch any remote content. It's not a firewall problem, as I can generally fetch non streamed files manually, and playback of local files is fine. I suspect it may be a threading problem, as I had to disable audio threading, as suggested by the Unix issues page at real.com, in order to get the player to play *anything*. Plus the fact that I've been unable to run most other multithreaded Linux apps on this machine in the past (StarOffice, mtv among others).

Just so you understand me right, i am a happy FreeBSD user for many years now and i doubt that i will ever switch to something else. (i have come from 2.2.1 to 4.2 now, always working in stable). I just wanted to point out that freebsd site really sucks when it comes to the news and propaganda. If i were a person considering freebsd and i was peridically watching freebsd.org for the update all I would notice is a bunch of new comiters and periodic releases of new version. That's all. No other news, no periodic updates, no news about what's going on around it. The site does not give any idea in what ways freebsd is different from windows and, of course, linux. It does not have any screenshots (AND YES, they are important for the newbees). For example, look at the kde site. What do they have on the first page? NEWS!!! Most sites have NEWS on the first page, because NEWS give people an idea that the project is alive. The only way to know, that freebsd project is alive (and i know for sure, that IT IS MORE ALIVE THEN ANYTHING on the planet) is to do cvsup daily and read the mailists. This is no right way to attract new people. That way about the new people. Now about what i don't like: The site never contains technical information what's planned or what's changed. For example, i HAVE NOT IDEA what's new in 5.0-CURRENT or even what's new in 4.2 comparing to 4.1.1. I think we need more news!

For instance, the file RELNOTES.TXT that has been included with every freebsd distribution that I have ever seen documents the changes and improvements over the previous version. 4) You don't make it clear as to whether you are willing to help impliment any of these suggestions that you have.

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 Hiya ;) Just wondering if you folks could recommend a good tape drive that can handle 10 gig tapes or even 20 gig tape cartridges and will work on FreeBSD 3.5(X)-STABLE... Or even a better backup method than tapes? (I am currently doing backups to 2ndary and 3rdish hard drives which is ok, but if like the machine gets fried, its all over) - Thanks in advance ;) - Jason L.

Mail worked just fine until this Monday morning. At that time, mail delivery through the MX'ed ISP went intermittent. By that, some mail is delivered OK, some mail is not. "Other ISP" are claiming that our DNS is set up incorrectly. domain.com. IN MX 0 mail.otherisp.net. --seems pretty straightforward to us, and has worked for over a year. The basis of their claim is their statement that running: bash# telnet domain.com 25 -- does not connect to their mail server, the target of the MX entry, but rather to the server where domain.com is housed. This is supposed to be proof that our DNS MX entry is wrong. Personally, I didn't know that specifying port 25 on a telnet connection would cause telnet to do an MX lookup and then connect to that address rather than the address for "domain.com".

Basically they're talking total rubbish, the only time that telnet domain.com 25 would be useful is if you had no MX records setup at all which'd cause mail to be delivered to the machine called domain.com. -- Simon Dick simond@irrelevant.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 8:54: 5 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mgw1.MEIway.com (mgw1.meiway.com [212.73.210.75]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A3B1F37B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 08:53:59 -0800 (PST) Received: from mail.Go2France.com (ms1.meiway.com [212.73.210.73]) by mgw1.MEIway.com (Postfix Relay Hub) with ESMTP id E08656A904 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 17:53:58 +0100 (CET) Received: from sv.Go2France.com [212.73.210.79] by mail.Go2France.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-6.04) id A692BDC01C4; Wed, 08 Nov 2000 18:00:02 +0100 Message-Id: <5.0.0.25.0.20001108175249.025b6eb0@mail.Go2France.com> X-Sender: lconrad%Go2France.com@mail.Go2France.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.0 Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2000 17:53:57 +0100 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Len Conrad Subject: Re: MX-DNS-telnet sanity check In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 11:48 08/11/00 -0500, you wrote: >Hi all, more generic than FreeBSD, but hope somecan confirm/deny: > >We have a domain hosted on us, with an MX record pointing to another >ISP.

I does not contain enough information about the current releases, the release politics, the philosophy of the system, the screebshots, the attractions for the people looking an alternative (such as screenshots of some software running), the news in the media, what other people say. Actually, some of it IS THERE, but to get it one needs to dig really deeply and be very insistive.

NICELY PUT! Bravo! Hoever, release details should not be on the first page. First page shoudl contain announcments, news, MEGA FEATURES some other attraction stuff. That's IMHO. > 3) You realize that the information you want is available, just not where > you want it. For instance, the file RELNOTES.TXT that has been included > with every freebsd distribution that I have ever seen documents the changes > and improvements over the previous version. RELNOTES is nice, but the trick is to GET THERE. For me - it is okay place. And i have been reading it since 2.2.1 and find it very useful and completely satisfactory. However, anybody can see that most (if not 99%) of the things which are metioned in the RELNOTES have no meaning to a new user coming from Windows. So, this is a nice doc for the current user, but hardly any help for a person wanting to become a user. The other thing is that I'd like to know WHAT'S NEW IN 5.0-CURRENT, i won't run in a production env, but i might try it at home. Where do i get that info? > 4) You don't make it clear as to whether you are willing to help impliment > any of these suggestions that you have. Hmm.. Why not, i've been in WEB development and design since 96. Currently I am a technical director. I think I could create a project plan for the updates and maybe even impliment some of the feature (however, that would be too slow, since i have almost not time). My point is very simple. I think freebsd site should be much more friendlier to the new user, however, this is right ONLY if one of the goals of the project is too attract more usual users. I realize, that I might be wrong and actually FreeBSD positions itself as an OS for professionals in professional areas. Not for everyday home use. I don't even know, which is better for us. Now let's take a virtual tour on the freebsd.org site. I will pretend that i have never seen anything but Windows, however, i have heard of Linux, Macs, Beos and others. I am a pretty advanced user, i know a lot about hardware (i have assembled my PC myself) and i know how thinks are working on a programming level (say, i remember my shchool C programming classes): Now. i type in: www.freebsd.org. On the first page it says: FreeBSD is an advanced BSD UNIX operating system for the Intel compatible (x86), DEC Alpha, and PC-98 architectures. It is developed and maintained by a large team of individuals. I think, "Well, Alpha is nice, this must be something really powerfull, I wonder is okay for home use? I never heard of PC-98 and BSD UNIX. What's UNIX anyway? I wonder who can explain that to me" Then i read: "FreeBSD makes an ideal Internet or Intranet server." And i think "Hmm, i always thoghts most of the stuff in Internet is working on Win NT and Linux. I wonder if what they say here is true. What percent of the servers are FreeBSD? Is my provider running FreeBSD" The i read: "Visit our gallery for examples of FreeBSD powered applications and services." Well, i might as well look at them... or leave it for later. I don't know. No, i click now. "1246 commercial organizations 553 non-profit organizations 259 personal sites" My God! I not not going to browse all of them. I'd take a loot at a couple of personal sites. Well, i didn't notices anything about FreeBSD of them. I just don't get it how they are related to FreeBSD. If they are on a FreeBSD power server, that is nice. But i don't need a server. I wonder what people do with it. Anyway, let me take a look at the commercial organizations: Here i see a couple of providers and hosters at the top, also some adult hosting. Well, i say, so what. This must be definitely server only OS. Well, i'll just scroll down (i might scroll). WOW! I see Yahoo! here. Nice, nice. I wonder why Yahoo chose FreeBSD instead of Win NT or LINUX. Well, let;s read ahead. "The quality of FreeBSD combined with today's low-cost, high-speed PC hardware makes FreeBSD a very economical alternative to commercial UNIX workstations. It is well-suited for a great number of both desktop and server applications." Hmm. Applications. Let's take a look at them: "FreeBSD can handle nearly any task you would expect of a UNIX workstation, as well as many you might not expect:" Okay, UNIX workstation is nice, but what's UNIX anyway and what UNIX workstation supposed to do? I wonder if i can play my games on it and write the reports, notes, email just as now but with all this Windows mess. "FreeBSD is a true open system with full source code" That would interesting to look at. I might still remember my C classes. Are the sources in C? I doubt that they are in Pascal. "Because FreeBSD is based on 4.4BSD" Hmm. what's 4.4BSD? "it is easy to compile and run programs" Hmm. that's now what i want. I just want to run programms. 'X Window workstation. From an inexpensive X terminal to an advanced X display" I wonder what this means. "And much more. Accounting, action games, MIS databases, scientific visualization, video conferencing, Internet relay chat (IRC), home automation, multiuser dungeons, bulletin board systems, image scanning, and more are all real uses for FreeBSD today. If you have an innovative application for FreeBSD, let us know so we can add it to our gallery. " Oh! That;s my kind of stuff. So, it CAN do something else than server stuff. Damn, i'd love too see the screenshots of it working. "FreeBSD also includes an extensive packages collection and ports collection that bring precompiled and easy-to-build software right to your desktop or enterprise server. There is also a growing number of commercial applications written for FreeBSD" I have no idea what's packages and ports. Lemme look at commerical apps. Damn! Whatta hell, where are the apps. Some vendors. I am not going to visit all of them to see what they have done. Besides, this list of vendors does say anything. I don;t know anyone of them. Ah, well, let's continue with the other stuff: "Easy to install" Hmm. That's nice. I wonder how the installer looks like. "Cutting edge features FreeBSD offers advanced networking, performance, security and compatibility features today which are still missing in other operating systems, even some of the best commercial ones." Oh! Some of the real stuff. Let me see. "A complete operating system based on 4.4BSD" All this talk about 4.4BSD does not tell me anything. I don;t know what that is and if it is good or bad. "Bounce buffering gets around a limitation in the PC's ISA architecture that limits direct-memory access to the first 16 megabytes. " Hmm.. this stuff is old. Does it support my fully PCI pc? "Merged virtual memory and filesystem buffer cache continuously tunes the amount of memory used for programs and the disk cache." That's no cutting edge. Windows has been doing this since 95. "Compatibility modules enable programs for other operating systems to run on FreeBSD, including programs for Linux, SCO, NetBSD, and BSDI." Linux compatibility? That nice. SO, do i get two in one or what? "Dynamically loadable kernel modules " - hmm, desription sounds nice. But windows has the same, i think, since 95. VXDs look like this. "Shared libraries " - you mean DLLs? What;s new about DLLs? Now, featurea are really outdates. ``FreeBSD has an outline-structured visual configuration editor ... you can enter the configuration of every device the OS supports and can therefore get a successful installation on the first try almost every time. IBM, Microsoft, and others would do well to emulate FreeBSD's approach.'' ---Brett Glass, Infoworld, April 8 1996. 1996? Well, too old of a note, but a nice feature too. Let me look at publications. "This is a recent (May 1997) publication from ..." Recent 97? What? You have to be kidding... And why is it all japanese? Is it japanese OS? And what this little neat hell animal doing here? I have wasted 1 hour and I am confused. I still don;t know if it can do what i need it to do, i have no idea how it looks like and how easy it is installed and where is has drivers for my hardware (i doubt that considering the features listed). I'll give Linux a try. (that's the whole another story.. selective the distro and stuff...) That how the trip to freebsd.org might look for a windows user (and not the stupidest one).

I think the number one use for FreeBSD is probably as some kind of Internet server and it serves this purpose well. As far as the web site goes, I definitely think it could be redesigned. I am willing to donate some of my time for this purpose, but in the past it seems that ideas are often shot down because of lack of anything to actually show. My proposal would be for a group of us to get together who are interested in pursuing this further and start to develop a plan and some sample designs. Once it is to a point where there is something to show we can let people take a look and hopefully we can convince the right people that this is the direction that we need to go in. -- Anthony Rubin GeneralSearch.Com, Inc. tonyr@generalsearch.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 10:49:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from vega.uli.it (vega.uli.it [62.212.0.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CC1A437B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 10:49:46 -0800 (PST) Received: from olgeni.uli.it (olgeni.uli.it [62.212.0.22]) by vega.uli.it (Postfix) with ESMTP id 35A953B00F; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:49:41 +0100 (CET) Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:49:51 +0100 (CET) From: Jimmy X-Sender: olgeni@olgeni.localdomain.net To: Jens Trzaska Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: automatically switching ttyv on startup In-Reply-To: <3A091AC1.2D289F57@gmx.net> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Is there a tool available under FreeBSD which lets me change the > foreground virtual terminal like chvt under linux?

More info to follow: Lucent Router ------ FreeBSD NAT firewall --------- DNS Server I know I need to tell the firewall to redirect port 53 both forwards and backwards for the DNS server. A case in point, assuming I was on the outside of the Lucent Router and wanted to use the internal DNS server (192.168.x.x) from another FreeBSD box, where would I point it at because obviously the DNS server doesn't have a legitimate external "Internet IP." The question is easy if I'm internal behind the firewall, I could just point directly at the 192.168.x.x address, but that's not the situation I'm looking at. Or, alternatively, is there a better way of setting this up without putting the DNS server on the firewall machine. Thanks for any input...

Basically we setup routers for their ISDN connections, gateways, mailservers, etc. using FreeBSD. Needless to say, we used ALOT of these cards, which is why I have a few of them. In all the time I worked there, we never had a problem with these cards. Yet, I did notice that the chipsets on these cards did change from time to time. Sometimes it was a DEC chip and othertimes it was an Intel-based chip. As a matter of fact, I have one of those cards in one of my machines at home and it gives me the same "compatibility shims" message that you're getting. Unfortunately, I haven't done any work with this, since at the moment, this machine stands alone and uses a modem for internet connectivity. What may be the issue is that it happens to have a different chipset (Intel or something else perhaps?)

I just set up a firewall running FreeBSD4.1. I have two machines that use DHCP to get an IP from the firewall. These two machines behind the firewall can get out to the net and view web pages, etc. However, I have a couple of problems I cant figure out. a) I cant seem to watch streaming quicktime. b) I have an ftp server (windows box) at 192.168.1.13 and I cant ftp in from 192.168.1.11 or from the gateway but I can ping the box. I've got an old freebsd book and read stuff online but nothing really tells me how to do what i need to do exactly. What do I do now? Is my problem firewall related or routed related or what? my firewall=open type. ps - i'm not on the list so please send your replies directly to me. thanks, kris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 12:10:21 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from corrupt.network-alchemy.com (Corrupt.Network-Alchemy.COM [199.46.16.36]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 39C3537B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:10:18 -0800 (PST) Received: from network-alchemy.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by corrupt.network-alchemy.com (8.11.0/8.11.0) with ESMTP id eA8KAHM57407 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:10:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mruhl@network-alchemy.com) Message-ID: <3A09B329.8F9CE22E@network-alchemy.com> Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2000 12:10:17 -0800 From: Mike Ruhl X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 4.2-BETA i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: disklable output References: <20001108200813.DA98737B4C5@hub.freebsd.org> Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------B3FE35E94975DA44AA983E18" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------B3FE35E94975DA44AA983E18 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Howdy, A recent question posted to -stable about disklabel prompted me to play with disklable a bit.

Looking up my drive (MAXTOR 91360U4), I see that it spins at 5400 rpm.

I wanted to see on 192.168.1.1 why it wasnt working but cant find a log anywhere. kris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 12:18:52 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mgw1.MEIway.com (mgw1.meiway.com [212.73.210.75]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8363837B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:18:50 -0800 (PST) Received: from mail.Go2France.com (ms1.meiway.com [212.73.210.73]) by mgw1.MEIway.com (Postfix Relay Hub) with ESMTP id 78CB66A901 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 21:18:49 +0100 (CET) Received: from sv.Go2France.com [212.73.210.79] by mail.Go2France.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-6.04) id A690A4C01B0; Wed, 08 Nov 2000 21:24:48 +0100 Message-Id: <5.0.0.25.0.20001108211828.04d2a320@mail.Go2France.com> X-Sender: lconrad%Go2France.com@mail.Go2France.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.0 Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2000 21:18:42 +0100 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Len Conrad Subject: post-install of kernal sources, maxusers max? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm working on a 4.1 system with only a binary install. Now I need to do a custom kernal. Can the /stand/systinstall post-config option be used to put on all the developer source pkg without bothering the current config. It's a 200 K msg/day mail hub. All I need to change is maxusers since we're getting the error from postfix: Nov 8 04:59:41 postfix/qmgr[16383]: fatal: socket: No buffer space available Nov 8 04:59:41 postfix/smtp[16872]: fatal: socket: No buffer space available Nov 8 05:00:58 postfix/qmgr[16876]: fatal: socket: No buffer space available Increasing maxusers will fix this pb? On the postfix list, it seems someone has heard that FreeBSD should not be run at above maxusers = 128, while somebody else said they were running with 256 happily. Comments, please?

That did the trick. Since my p0 was OK I ran (from the shell) vinum init -v -w mirrored.p1 This produced several minutes of disk activity and the curser waited until the command finished. vinum list showed the plex up but the subsidk still faulty, so I ran vinum start mirrored.p1.s0 The also produced several minutes of disk activity, but the process ran in the background after displaying "Reviving mirrored.p1.s0 in the background." From time to time I ran vinum list and where it used to display "faulty" it now read State: R 1% with the percentage increasing each time I ran the command. Eventually the background process reported that mirrored.p1.s0 is up. And it is. -- == Gary Dunn == Honolulu == Open Slate Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 12:27:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from po3.wam.umd.edu (po3.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.165]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 51DA137B4C5 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:27:45 -0800 (PST) Received: from rac3.wam.umd.edu (IDENT:root@rac3.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.143]) by po3.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA26094; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:27:24 -0500 (EST) Received: from rac3.wam.umd.edu (IDENT:sendmail@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by rac3.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id PAA01660; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:27:24 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost (culverk@localhost) by rac3.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA01649; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:27:24 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: rac3.wam.umd.edu: culverk owned process doing -bs Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:27:23 -0500 (EST) From: Kenneth Wayne Culver To: "Zaitsau, Andrei" Cc: "'Lee J Carmichael'" , mac , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: KNE100TX - Ethernetcard In-Reply-To: <054F7DAA9E54D311AD090008C74CE9BD01766D77@exchange.panasonicfa.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG pn0? wierd... mine runs as de0... hrmm..

Can FreeBSD be used to run an access router? Here's the scenario: I have one machine on a local network, using an ethernet connection to a switch, which intern connects to core router for the network. The core router routes a class C (253 usable IP addresses after router) to the ethernet switch, afterwhich point the servers are setup using static IP addresses and plugged into the same switch. I would like to take one machine, assign it a static IP address, plug four modems into it, and allow PPP dialin access. The PPP daemon must assign one of 20ip addresses to the dialin party based upon the username supplied. I want to be able to use pap/chap authentication. My Question(s): How would one configure PPP to allow dial-in access from internal modems; as-in how does one force the modems to answer the line when it rings? Would I need to define static routes for each of the IP addresses to go through the one machine, or would setting gateway_enabled="YES" in rc.conf do fine for PPP? (Would I need to just run RIP?) Summary: I want to use a FreeBSD box, loaded with a few internal modems to allow dialin PPP access. I also want the dialin IP's to be routed through the ethernet interface on the box containing the modems; essentially creating a small access router. I have done exactly this, but on a larger scale (48modems), using Livingston (/Lucent) Portmaster 3's, and a radius server for the authentication/IP address part. Any suggestions or comments are greatly appreciated. -- 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 Wed Nov 8 12:41:31 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mta01-svc.ntlworld.com (mta01-svc.ntlworld.com [62.253.162.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 198EC37B4C5 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:41:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from parish ([62.253.84.98]) by mta01-svc.ntlworld.com (InterMail vM.4.01.02.27 201-229-119-110) with ESMTP id <20001108204125.YIGS277.mta01-svc.ntlworld.com@parish>; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 20:41:25 +0000 Received: (from mark@localhost) by parish (8.11.0/8.11.0) id eA8Keof05462; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 20:40:50 GMT (envelope-from mark) Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 20:40:50 +0000 From: Mark Ovens To: Gabor Zahemszky Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Screen saver for syscons Message-ID: <20001108204050.G254@parish> References: <20001107153731.A850@zg.CoDe.hu> <20001107195543.B253@parish> <20001108120025.A554@zg.CoDe.hu> <20001108193920.C254@parish> <20001108194732.D254@parish> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i In-Reply-To: <20001108194732.D254@parish>; from marko@freebsd.org on Wed, Nov 08, 2000 at 07:47:32PM +0000 Organization: Total lack of Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Nov 08, 2000 at 07:47:32PM +0000, Mark Ovens wrote: > On Wed, Nov 08, 2000 at 07:39:20PM +0000, Mark Ovens wrote: > > > > Check out Andrzej's website http://people.freebsd.org/~abial/ there is > > already a 4.x version there (albeit 4.0-CURRENT so maybe it won't work > > under 4.[12]. > > > > Just tried it myself under 4.1-STABLE, it doesn't work: > > /usr/root{101}# kldload matrix_saver > kldload: can't load matrix_saver: Exec format error > /usr/root{102}# Nov 8 19:44:02 parish /kernel: link_elf: symbol set_border undefined > Nov 8 19:44:02 parish /kernel: link_elf: symbol set_border undefined > > If you get it working please send me a copy. > The following patch fixes it --- matrix_saver.c.orig Wed Nov 8 19:53:39 2000 +++ matrix_saver.c Wed Nov 8 20:04:31 2000 @@ -135,14 +135,14 @@ /* sc_vtb_clear(&scp->scr, sc->scr_map[0x20], (FG_LIGHTGREY | BG_BLACK) << 8); */ (*vidsw[adp->va_index]->set_hw_cursor)(adp, -1, -1); - set_border(scp, 0); + sc_set_border(scp, 0); } if (blanked++ < 2) return 0; blanked = 1; /* Move the contents down 1 line */ sc_vtb_ins(&sc->cur_scp->scr,0,scp->xsize,sc->scr_map[0x20], - scp->term.cur_color); + 0); /* Draw new glyphs */ for(i=0;ixsize;i++) { gly=random() & 0x007f; I don't know what scp->term.cur_color should really be replaced with, but 0 seems to work OK. > -- > 4.4 - The number of the Beastie > ________________________________________________________________ > 51.44°N FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org > 2.057°W My Webpage http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/~mark > mailto:marko@freebsd.org http://www.radan.com > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- 4.4 - The number of the Beastie ________________________________________________________________ 51.44°N FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org 2.057°W My Webpage http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/~mark mailto:marko@freebsd.org http://www.radan.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 12:44: 3 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.FreeBSD.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EE0D537B479 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:43:59 -0800 (PST) Received: from thing.orbitel.bg (thing.orbitel.bg [195.24.32.46]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id EA22B6E2D72 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 12:42:43 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 342 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Nov 2000 20:33:58 -0000 Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 22:33:58 +0200 From: Stanislav Grozev To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: installing on a extended partition Message-ID: <20001108223357.A324@thing.orbitel.bg> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="gKMricLos+KVdGMg" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --gKMricLos+KVdGMg Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi, are there any special considerations to be taken, or is it at all possible to install FreeBSD 4.1.1 (or -current) entirely on an extended partition (slice)?

I have searched the mailing list archives but couldnt find anything close... I made ipfw,dummynet etc. work perfectly but need a creative idea of the conf file I should use. I want to limit bandwidth over an interface but also I want to use ipfw's firewall capabilities but the search terminates when ipfw comes to a pipe command. Ok you might say that I can make ipfw continue search after pipe by setting a variable with sysctl and I did that then the problem is that I want users behind this host to connect to X machine without the bandwidth limit but however I put the rules these users are caught by the other bandwidth limit rule. I can handle this if the ipfw terminates the search when it finds a rule because I can put a rule about this X machine first and another rule about the rest of the internet then I cant use ipfw's firewall capabilities. I can use ipfw's skipto option to continue from another rule when the pipe matches but then the problem is with ipfw list numbers. I sometimes add rules in the middle of the rules in my rc.firewall file and all the numbers change at the next time I reboot the firewall box. Is this a kind of paradox? any creative ideas?

(I'm in the process of having a new machine set up - so I'll learn soon - I promise). Anyway - my boyfriend is a huge advocate of FreeBSD and uses it on all of his machines. I'm interested in purchasing an MP3 Player for him - he is basically anti-Windows - Is there a compatible model for the FreeBSD operating system? What would you recommend?

Here is what I know so far: 1) I go through the install and select everything correctly, with a minimal install for a user. 2) It gets to the part where it copies the files from the CD to the system and fails at the end 3) The error message it gives is: MAKEDEV Returned non-zero status. 4) While checking the other terminal (i put it in debug) here are some the last couple of lines up to the error: Debug: Notify: Remaking all devices...Please Wait Debug: Executing command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' MAKEDEV: 762: Syntax Error: ")" unexpected (expecting ";;") Debug: Command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' returns status of 2 5) When i acknowledge that the system had error and set the root password and time zone (which i have to do manually) and reboot the system i am getting the following error: Mounting root from UFS: /dev/ad0s1a panic: allocbuf: buffer too small Then the system tries to sync the disks and ends up with a fatal trap error. Does anyone have any idea what is going on. I am assuming that the install is failing when trying to make devices from the /dev directory, but, what can I do about that or am I even going down the right road. The system has an unknown motherboard (TX Pro chipset). It has one IDE hard disk in it with an SMC Nic card, (which works cause I installed via FTP from my bsd box). Other than a floppy that is it. If anyone can help me out please do so as I am stumped. Thanks!

I need to recompile the kernel so that I can increase the number of ppp and tun interfaces available. I have read the handbook section on creation a custom kernel at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html and do not have either of the items listed in the excerpt below: ------------------------------------------------------------ Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system, then the kernel source has not been installed. The easiest way to do this is by running /stand/sysinstall as root, choosing Configure, then Distributions, then src, then sys. ------------------------------------------------------------ I have searched for a tar file or package containing the kernel source with no luck. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You'll also need appropriate permissions to read from the bpf device(s), which by default means root privileges. The bpf pseudo device has been in GENERIC for some time, so if you're using a recent version of FreeBSD, you're all set.

I've used cvsup to update my ports collection, and I noticed that ports/net/vnc was updated to 3.3.3.2 (I was running 3.3.3.1 at that moment). It compiled without any problems, but coredumps (sig 11 in getsockname(2)) as soon as my wm (ports/x11-wm/icewm) starts. This did not happen with the previous version, in fact, I've run that for quite some time without a hitch. I tried "cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs co -r RELEASE_4_1_1 ports/net/vnc", and that gives me the 3.3.3.1 version, but when I try to compile it, it complains "this port is using an old layout". Is there any other way to do this except downloading a binary package? Btw, I'm using FreeBSD 4.2-BETA, cvsupped and built approx Nov 5.

Short answer: no! Longer answer: If the slice is not currently used by DOS/Windows, you can delete any logical drives on it can be deleted in DOS FDISK and then you can use the FreeBSD installation (sysinstall) package to re-type the partition (slice) as type 165, FreeBSD and you can install there.

It's 127.0.0.0/8, designated as a loopback IP block.. meaning that most any good firewall will block all data with an IP in this block, but allow it through lo0 (loopback interface). -- wca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 8 16:55:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from bsd1.alaptech.com (cable-225-4-237-24.anchorageak.net [24.237.4.225]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DB77537B4CF for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 16:55:19 -0800 (PST) Received: (from kirk@localhost) by bsd1.alaptech.com (8.11.0/8.9.3) id eA90q9M10408; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:52:09 -0900 (AKST) (envelope-from kirk) Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 15:52:09 -0900 From: Kirk Brogdon To: Kirk Brogdon Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: glibc error with staroffice52 - resolved Message-ID: <20001108155209.A10374@bsd1.alaptech.com> References: <20001105232709.A18756@bsd1.alaptech.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i In-Reply-To: <20001105232709.A18756@bsd1.alaptech.com>; from kirk@alaptech.com on Sun, Nov 05, 2000 at 11:27:09PM -0900 DisOrganization: ALAP Technology - Chugiak, AK USA Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I figured this one out after going through the LINT file. I just wanted to update in case anyone else came across this. I had to add the COMPAT_LINUX option in the kernel and then install the /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base port. This installed glibc (and a bunch of other Linux stuff). Star Office 5.2 installed OK after that. I also added the EXT2FS option in the kernel but I have no idea if it is neccessary.

I prefer FreeBSD with Samba to Windows NT Server, but manageing accounts and paswords is a chore. There must be an easier way. I have three FreeBSD servers behind a Windows NT PDC. Two are "twins" and are used for roaming profiles and mail. The third is for shared files and print services (although print services may be spread amongst all three ...). Every user has an NT account on the PDC, a Unix account on one of the two profile servers, a Unix account on the shared data server, and a Samba (smbpasswd) account on the same two Unix boxes. That's seven databases to maintain, five for each account. Bleh! After reading the Baines Black Book I realized that Samba can be configured to authenticate users from the PDC. The smb.conf entry that does this is security = domain This is great. Three less databases to manage. But what about the three Unix password databases? Can I maintain the password database on the centrally shared Unix server and point the twins to it? Will NIS do this? Should I?

Here's the scenario: There are several computer labs (school network) and all computers are configured to get the needed information from a dhcp-server. Now, I need to set up a gateway (with a cable-modem), thru which all machines should go online. My first idea was to set up a transperant proxy (using ipfw). That would make the administration pretty easy for me. The other idea, that came up my mind, was to create a standard-router (using routed, etc.). Now, my questions are: Which of these solutions would you recommend? Are there any other solutions you would suggest? Do you know any disadvantages (slowing down performance, etc.), which I could experience? Any other thoughts?

A router just passes the traffic. Set up a cache with squid; it will save accessed web documents for reuse by others. Consider carefully what traffic (if any) to pass; playing Quake might be fun, but it's probably not educational. If you want to provide a mail service, set that up on the 'BSD box too, and have it relay outgoing mail.

Doesn't matter whether the password is encrypted or not; if a snooper can see it's a password and whose it is, they can use what they have.

It's two links from the front page to a repository that has the exact text of (almost) every change that's been made to FreeBSD in months. What's missing are files that are no longer part of the distribution. I guess my finding it means that I'm not a real user of FreeBSD, huh? Ok, the CVS repository is information overload. But it's a bit premature to ask "what's new in 4.2", as it isn't out yet.. However, I expect that will be two clicks from the frontpage ("Announcements" then "Release Information") when 4.2 is available, just like 4.1.1, 4.1, etc. are now.

That's all. No other news, no periodic > updates, no news about what's going on around it. Let's see, here's a list of links to articles in the press to other sites. That's "going on around" FreeBSD. The announcements page does seem to be full of new committers which isn't of interest to the new user - it probably ought to be pulled into a separate list. On the other hand, the committers are the people who create FreeBSD, so they deserve some stroking. On that same page we also find information about the core team election - which goes to the very heart of the politics around BSD. BSDCon information. The announcement of IA64 support. An announcement about FreeBSD servering 2 terabytes in a single day. An announcement about FreshPorts. Travel plans for some core team members. Pointers to articles on sysetm setup. The announcement of new mail list summary pages, and another for some new mail lists. The BSDI/WC merger. Um - I think that just hit every important event I know about from following the various mail lists. Can you provide examples of the kind of news you'd want? Oh yeah, let's not forget the links to Daemon New on the front page. > The site does not give any > idea in what ways freebsd is different from windows and, of course, linux. > It does not have any screenshots (AND YES, they are important for the > newbees). Um - screenshots? What good would image captures of a CRT screen do? Or are you talking about X - which isn't part of FreeBSD, but is provided with it? Which X desktop are you going to chose? Mine, which today was two xterms on half the screen & xemacs on the other while I was hacking FORTRAN? Gnome? KDE? Running which window managers? One that looks just like Win9x, down to the start button? And how far out of your way are you going to go to differentiate that from Linux? In particular, what are you going to do that you *couldn't* do on a Linux system? > For example, look at the kde site. What do they have on the first > page? NEWS!!! Other than the announcement of 2.0 (which is big news, but probably below the fold for most people - bad design on their part), I don't see anything at . In fact, the first line of real text on the two pages is almost identical: " is a for ." Following that on both pages is a collection of paragraphs with a link or two in each. FreeBSD likes putting headings on their paragraphs, though. > Most sites have NEWS on the first page, because NEWS give people an > idea that the project is alive. The only way to know, that freebsd > project is alive (and i know for sure, that IT IS MORE ALIVE THEN > ANYTHING on the planet) is to do cvsup daily and read the > mailists. This is no right way to attract new people. Actually, you don't need to cvsup. You need to read cvs-all. Then cvsup when something interesting hits the branch you're running (or just do it on a regular basis). But think about this - we really, really don't want people running out and installing -CURRENT (which is suffering from random lockups due to mutex problems in the SMPNG code) because they saw an announcement. Nuts - we don't want newbies trying to track -stable, which has problems of it's own. We want the first install to be from a RELEASE, which is at least a fixed point so we can identify problems and deal with them reasonably. So the things you're talking about don't belong on the web site. > That way about the new people. Now about what i don't like: The site never > contains technical information what's planned or what's changed. For > example, i HAVE NOT IDEA what's new in 5.0-CURRENT or even what's > new in 4.2 comparing to 4.1.1. You're in either one of two states - if you're running -STABLE or -CURRENT, you should be following those lists, which is where that information is sent. If you're running -RELEASE, then the information you want will be on the web site as soon as it's available. Information about new features in -CURRENT should *not* be generally available, because, quoting the handbook, FreeBSD is NOT: A fast-track to getting pre-release bits because you heard there is some cool new feature in there and you want to be the first on your block to have it. > I think we need more news! It might be nice if each news item was on the top (not the bottom they way KDE did it) of the page for a bit. Of course, the most common thing would be new committers, which seems pointless. I'll agree - the FreeBSD web site is a lousy propoganda site. Of course, it's designed to be an *information* site. I think it does a great job of that. That said, I'll encourage you to take the words of Scoop (Nisgar? Can someone in the SF Bay Area provide the correct last name?) to heart "If you don't like the news, go out and make some of your own."

Sounds like you want the PicoBSD project. Try searching for that string on the FreeBSD web site and mail lists. From what I can gather, they are stripping the OS down to the point where it will run off of floppies. Everything else is doable. I suspect they aren't using a GUI environment, though. ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:00:49 -0800 (PST) Received: from gunnar.weygold.edu (pool0118.cvx23-bradley.dialup.earthlink.net [209.179.204.118]) by gull.prod.itd.earthlink.net (EL-8_9_3_3/8.9.3) with SMTP id TAA20769 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:00:47 -0800 (PST) From: Gunnar H Reichert-Weygold Organization: The Pagan Library To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Hard Drives Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 18:57:32 -0800 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <00110819003901.00351@gunnar.weygold.edu> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Two questions.

Looks like you installed a binary targeted at an older release of FreeBSD. Try installing the FreeBSD 3.x compatability libraries.

Is it something to be concerned about? What's more worrying is the fact that ntp is having to jump time by over .1 seconds every few hours.

Color directory listings has nothing to do with the OS you're running. It all depends on the "ls" program. FreeBSD has historically not had a color ls, and you had to install either the "colorls" or "linuxls" from ports.

I've sent a not to them about it, hopefully I'll get a reply back :-(. Something tells me the "Shelf" facilities can be used to do this, and something got left out somewhere. ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:51:49 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 1060 invoked by uid 100); 9 Nov 2000 03:51:49 -0000 From: Mike Meyer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14858.8021.184463.262550@guru.mired.org> Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 21:51:49 -0600 (CST) To: Francisco Reyes Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: How to newfs CDRW media?

FreeBSD doesn't support that. A CDRW is a reusable CDR, not a file system. Some of the Windows CDRW tools (provided by the CDRW manufacturer) may provide a file system that lets you use a CDRW that way, but I don't know of any tool that does that for FreeBSD. ; Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:51:48 -0800 (PST) Received: from emu.os2.ami.com.au (IDENT:root@c0s17.ami.com.au [203.55.31.82]) by netsrvr.ami.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA00996 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 11:51:43 +0800 Received: from possum.os2.ami.com.au (IDENT:summer@possum.os2.ami.com.au [192.168.1.6]) by emu.os2.ami.com.au (8.10.0/8.10.0) with ESMTP id eA93peZ27188 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 11:51:40 +0800 Message-Id: <200011090351.eA93peZ27188@emu.os2.ami.com.au> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.1.1 10/15/1999 To: freebsd-questions@fReebsD.org Subject: Re: IBM HardDisk problem with FreeBSD-4.1 In-Reply-To: Your message of "Thu, 09 Nov 2000 11:48:11 +0800." <20001109114811.A17591@mail.turbocrm.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Thu, 09 Nov 2000 11:54:20 +0800 From: John Summerfield Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > hi,all: > > I have a PC installed FreeBSD-4.1 Release, but when I boot my > PC every time, the kernal always report the below error: > > ad0: 19623MB [39870/16/63] at ata0-master using UDMA66 I'm running of exactly one of those (DeskStar 45, 20 Gbytes) drives as I type.

A couple of questions please. 1.    I have an urgent need to have username greater than 8 characters. Any advice please. I am using FreeBSd 2.2.6, but am close to upgrading to 4.1.1 stable.
What do you need them for?
If it is e-mail, move to qmail http://www.qmail.org/ instead of sendmail...
Than you don't have to have your users in /etc/passwd either!
2.    With the upgrade I installed 4.0 from the Cd's then ran CVSUP for the 4.1.1 upgrade and all ports. I am unable to follow what to do nest, the base directory is /usr, however there is no files in /usr/src. Any help greatly appreciated Arthur
Read the UPDATING in /usr/src
You will hage to make world and build a kernel etc.

Don't worry, be Kneppie!

(You can update the BIOS, but you can't do anything about the hardware revision #) Given the pricing of AMD to Intel right now I would be leary of buying a P3, especially a slot 1....looks like the p3-800 100mghz is running about $190. The Duron 800 is about $90 right now, and the Athlon 900 is about $190....of course you probably already have a P3 motherboard. To answer yuor question specifically, I have never owned the P3B-F, but I have had quite a few other ASUS motherboards, P2B and CUBX and so forth....they have always supported exactly what ASUS claimed they would.

Anyone interested in commenting please do.... I wanted to initially write a perl script to monitor /var/log/security for user defined ongoing's of ipfw. I was then going to use this data in a database, which would expire entries after a defined amount of time. The database (using MLDBM), could keep track of each ip which, for example was blocked, the port(s) they tried to connect from/to and when... Monitoring scans, both immediate and those gradually building over time would be simplified greatly... (on a cable network I find myself under a regular barrage of various intrusion attempts etc ranging from doze based attempts, like sub7 scans to scans of ftp ssh portmap etc... ...) Though since the idea's inception it occured to me that grabbing the logs could mean that I would miss data. (ie if I am scanned by let's say nmap -- default mode -- with a denial on tcp connnections at logamount 1000 that limit will fill up pretty quick). This while simple and for the most part effective has become rather unappealing... My other thought was to somehow use perl's XS to write some functions etc in C and translate them into perl subs. But to do this (I have not figured out all of the logistics yet...) I would have to create a daemon that either polled the kernel somehow or ... Dunno what... The design model here is incomplete but it seems to be the most appealing, because of the flexability ... and quite frankly the challenge... But good documentation for this has been hard to come by... So am I on crack... ???? What I am looking for here... is someone to either tell me I am reinventing the wheel... a place for good ipfw docs (I am already sub'ed to freebsd-ipfw, just in case)... or perhaps a better design method... if you feel there is one.

I run /stnad/sysinstall and fdisk the second HD, then I label it, but where should I mount them. The mount point /, /usr, /var has already been assigned. If I mount in other points will it work? How can I add the second HD correctly, so I can have enough space to run the program?

I have opened several ports like 20, 21, 80, 25, 109, 110, 53 and i can surf, get my e-mails. If i want to do FTP, i can connect to these ftp servers, but i can not list their contents. Port 20+21 are opened, but this seems not to work correctly, i am sure i forgot something. Passive mode with my ftp clients seems not to work, too. The connection hangs somewhere and will be blocked. I am not a security paranoia person, but FreeBSD works as a nat router, mailserver (sendmail) and so on for my windows box. On my windows box there are many bogus apps who want to try to establish connections on ports they not should use so i only open ports as really needed for my requirements.

There are older Pentium motherboards with IDE controllers that are incompatible with FreeBSD, perhaps you have one of those....although it could be many other things as well. The messages on the screen before the reboot will most likely contain valuable clues as to the reason behind this difficulty you are experiencing.

An NTP daemon comes standard with many UNIX-type OS flavors (also sometimes called xntpd). As for configuring it, see the ntpd(8) and ntp.conf(5) manpages. If this machine will just be a "client," that is, it will get the time from higher strata servers, an NTP configuration like, # # ntp.conf # server ntp1.server.somewhere.org server ntp2.server.elsewhere.org server ntp3.server.widewhere.org # I don't like the drift file in /etc driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift Should be enough. You can then just start the daemon by typing, 'ntpd', at the command line. To have it start on boot add, ntpd_enable="YES" To rc.conf. As for choosing your NTP servers and more on how NTP works, this is a good starting place, http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ -- Crist J.

You can mount it wherever you want. Let's say as an example you decide that putting /usr/local on the new filesystem would be a good idea and that the new partition is ad1s1e, # newfs /dev/ad1s1e # Make new filesystem # mount /dev/ad1s1e /mnt # Temporary mount point # cd /usr/local # tar cf - . | tar xf - -C /mnt # Copy over the old /usr/local # ls -l /mnt # Check if the copy worked # umount /mnt # rm -rf ./* # Clean the old /usr/local # mount /dev/ad1s1e /usr/local # Put in the new So it is mounted at boot, add, /dev/ad1s1e /usr/local ufs rw 0 2 To /etc/fstab.

I could not understand what do you wish :-( If you wish just see ALL processes started on your system, then 'man ps' :-) If you wish collect 'ps' information in some file second-by-second (or minute-by-minute) then make small shell script like this #!/bin/csh -f set logfile=/var/log/ps.log set path=(/bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin) echo "##########" >>$logfile echo "Processes snapshot on `date` :" >>$logfile ps aux >>$logfile echo "##########" >>$logfile And run this script as cronjob.

Communication with internet happens via pc3. Here's what i did so far (to begin with, i chose the 10.0.0.x IP-range) : On my gateway computer i've compiled the kernel with options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT Further, i set: geteway_enable=YES I checked /etc/services and natd is there, allright. I set up the following in rc.conf: natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="175.23.12.89" natd_flags="-f /etc/natd.cf" This enables in /etc/rc.firewall the following rule which now appears at the begining of the file: ipfw add 500 divert 8668 all from any to any via ${natd_interface} Then it seems to be time to change the IP's. Here's my distribution: - gateway xl0 becomes 10.0.0.1 - pc1 becomes 10.0.0.2 - pc2 becomes 10.0.0.3 - netmask on all three becomes 10.255.255.254 ### THE PROBLEM ### Now, when I reboot the boxes I get the following messages on pc1 and pc2: route: writing to routing network socket: Network is unreachable add net default: gateway 10.0.0.1: Network is unreachable When I login and try to ping: On pc1: ping 10.0.0.2 (localhost) works fine ping 10.0.0.3 (pc2) works fine ping 10.0.0.1 (gateway) gives "No route to host" On pc2: ping 10.0.0.3 (localhost) gives "Can't assign requested address" ping 10.0.0.2 (pc1) fails ping 10.0.0.1 (gateway) gives "No route to host" Gateway: ping 10.0.0.1 (localhost) works fine ping 10.0.0.0 (network) works fine Oups!

It seems to be the same on every system I have tried: BSD/Linux/Solaris. I have to live with it but I cannot for my life understand why it is there! There is a difference between a directory name with and without a slash - sometimes. An example. #pwd #/usr/home/mj/tmp #du 10 ./usr 20 ./usr/local # Now these two cp's do not do the same thing: #cp -r usr / (copies 'local' above to /usr/local) #cp -r usr/ / (copies 'local' above to /local) So there is a difference between usr and usr/, right? Appending a / means to contents of the directory? No! Not so when trying with ls: #ls -l usr total 1 drwxr-xr-x 2 root mj 512 9 Nov 10:00 local #ls -l usr/ total 1 drwxr-xr-x 2 root mj 512 9 Nov 10:00 local ls does not differentiate usr and usr/ while cp does. To get what I'd like to call 'ls -l usr' you have to do #ls -ld usr drwxr-xr-x 3 root mj 512 9 Nov 10:00 usr (or ls -ld usr/ of course) Why is this? I really like the subtle difference with the slash as in cp example above. While on the subject of strange behaviours, how about this to see all dot-files in my ~. #ls \.* I explicitly tell it to show only strings starting with a '.', but does it (or do I tell it to)? Oh, no. It lists every other file and directory as well. This latter is probably due to my misunderstanding of regexps, but still... Can anyone shed some light on this? I am very curious!

Things are moving in /usr/src but it is hard for me to know exactly what and why/if it will be of any use to me. A sort of a monthly/weekly summary of what is happening would be nice. For the occasional visitor the website must really impress and/or tell them what they want. Lets face it, most prospects come from MS windows and even if they are willing to learn they must have an idea of what to learn, what the whole shebang is about: i.e. "FreeBSD is an alternative to any desktop need. You can use it instead if MS Windows, but you cannot run windows programs on it (well, with wine you perhaps can, but not in a newbies world). On the other hand there are many workalike programs for that will make you not need windows any longer. It does require some effort on your behalf." Personally I would like to know if anyone, anywhere, have computerized a normal organization with FreeBSD, from researchers to secretaries to website? I am also a strong believer of screenshots. Yes, they will probably look like any screenshot on linux, but they will convey the fact that we have windows and colours and stuff.

I've tried to install ver 4.1 and 4.0 and seem to be having the same problem. -------------------------- I am having problems installing FreeBSD on a friends system and have tried all my resources only to be back to square one, not getting freebsd to install. Here is what I know so far: 1) I go through the install and select everything correctly, with a minimal install for a user. 2) It gets to the part where it copies the files from the CD to the system and fails at the end 3) The error message it gives is: MAKEDEV Returned non-zero status. 4) While checking the other terminal (i put it in debug) here are some the last couple of lines up to the error: Debug: Notify: Remaking all devices...Please Wait Debug: Executing command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' MAKEDEV: 762: Syntax Error: ")" unexpected (expecting ";;") Debug: Command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' returns status of 2 5) When i acknowledge that the system had error and set the root password and time zone (which i have to do manually) and reboot the system i am getting the following error: Mounting root from UFS: /dev/ad0s1a panic: allocbuf: buffer too small Then the system tries to sync the disks and ends up with a fatal trap error. Does anyone have any idea what is going on. I am assuming that the install is failing when trying to make devices from the /dev directory, but, what can I do about that or am I even going down the right road. The system has an unknown motherboard (TX Pro chipset). It has one IDE hard disk in it with an SMC Nic card, (which works cause I installed via FTP from my bsd box). Other than a floppy that is it. If anyone can help me out please do so as I am stumped. Thanks!

I have not been successful with a 4.1 install with less than 40 MB. Do you have the August 2000 version of the 4.1 disks? If you don't I would recommend getting them from BSDi. If you get the 4.1 powerpak you get Greg Lehey's book with it. Have you tried the install without a custom kernel? You can compile a custom one later. I would just try a minimal install with only ipV4.

So basically you'd end up with some sort of setup similar to below: --> ---> NIC1 on server, real internet IP ---> NIC2 on server, internal LAN address (eg 10.0.0.1), running NAT on this interface ---> then to workstations as dhcp clients Dependant upon the size of your network, you may also want to look at caching the system using squid; this will also give you the ability to monitor user traffic based upon username, generate statistics accordingly, and block out certain websites by url regexps. If you need any further assistance, please feel free to reply to this email with further detail regarding your setup. Make sure you CC: the list if you reply, so others can also benefit from your experience. -- 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 Thu Nov 9 7:21:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.wmptl.com (unknown [216.94.6.26]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4E73D37B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 07:21:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from wmptl.com ([10.0.0.168]) by mail2.wmptl.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id KAA07750; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 10:09:03 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Message-ID: <3A0ABFDD.EC18C380@wmptl.com> Date: Thu, 09 Nov 2000 10:16:45 -0500 From: Nathan Vidican Reply-To: webmaster@wmptl.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: pgd@telehorizon.com Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: setting up NAT..

A CDRW is a reusable CDR, not a file > system. Some of the Windows CDRW tools (provided by the CDRW > manufacturer) may provide a file system that lets you use a CDRW that > way, but I don't know of any tool that does that for FreeBSD. Don´t know your skills in CD-writing terms, so to be clear: Mike was refering here to the so called UDF or Packet-CD file system, which is an alternative to the iso9660 file system normally used on CD-ROMs. UDF would allow you to just drag and drop files onto your drive symbol in Windows Explorer, without the need for any burn program, when you once have your CDRW formatted with UDF. The big disadvantage: You can´t read this CDs with any Unix I know of (even for Win you have to install a driver first). So of course you can do backups on CDRWs with any Unix including FreeBSD, but not by just simply "cp files /cdrom" as Mike probably understood your question for a file system on CDRW, but by e.g. tar-ing the files, then mkisofs and finally burn them with burncd. If your first backup won´t fill your CDRW completely you can look for so called multi-session recording and so do the writing in separate steps until the CD is finally full. If you want to reuse the CDRWs, once they´re full, then you have to blank them again with the appropriate option of burncd.

Most people's first attempt at replacing the logfile is to just move the logfile or remove the logfile. THIS DOESN'T WORK. Apache will continue writing to the logfile at the same offset as before the logfile moved. This results in a new logfile being created which is just as big as the old one, but it now contains thousands (or millions) of null characters. The correct procedure is to move the logfile, then signal Apache to tell it to reopen the logfiles. Apache is signaled using the SIGHUP (-1) signal. e.g. mv access_log access_log.old kill -1 `cat httpd.pid` Note: httpd.pid is a file containing the process id of the Apache httpd daemon, Apache saves this in the same directory as the log files. Many people use this method to replace (and backup) their logfiles on a nightly or weekly basis.

I'm a newbie and just found out about ntp in Greg's book. So I attempted to set it up and it's been running for only a few days. I'm betting this is a problem, huh? 101 Blacksheep# ntpdc -c kerninfo ntpdc: read: Connection refused So I assume this means that the NTP server I am pointing isn't accepting my connection? Here is my ntp.conf: 106 Blacksheep# cat ntp.conf server 165.227.1.1 prefer #ns.scruz.net (Santa Cruz, CA) server 63.192.96.2 #ntp1.mainecoon.com (Quincy, CA) server 63.192.96.3 #ntp2.mainecoon.com (Quincy, CA) server 132.239.254.49 #ntp.ucsd.edu (San Diego, CA) driftfile /etc/ntp.drift broadcast 192.168.0.255 So then I try an update manually using ntpdate and it seems to work: 108 Blacksheep# ntpdate ns.scruz.net 9 Nov 08:11:09 ntpdate[1438]: step time server 165.227.1.1 offset -32.772205 sec So where is my error?

I generally set my MANPATH in /etc/profile, as I need to append the location of my postgres man pages. So echo $MANPATH clearly showed that my hack was overriding something. $ echo $MANPATH :/usr/local/pgsql/man It turned out there is a binary I never know existed: /usr/bin/manpath which reads /etc/manpath.config Adding a line to this file and removing my hack to /etc/profile restored man page access. OPTIONAL_MANPATH /usr/local/pgsql/man BTW, echo $MANPATH now returns: Interesting, eh?

Anthony, if your domain exists, then can you run a lookup on the actual box? For instance, obviously planetwe.com exist, but you can't run an nslookup on leila.planetwe.com - so you can't send mail from it without having it masquerade as planetwe.com: (from sendmail.cf) # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) (see also $=M) DMplanetwe.com this allows me to send mail as drew@planetwe.com.

What is the contents of /etc/ntp.drift? If it's over 500 or less than -500, ntpd will have a hard time keeping your clock in synch because it drifts too fast. I'd set up a cron job that fires every hour and runs "cat /etc/ntp.drift >> /var/log/ntp.drift", and check that log after a day or so so see what the trend is. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 8:41:26 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from copper.americanisp.net (copper.americanisp.net [208.244.174.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 3D7C537B4C5 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 08:41:22 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 16874 invoked from network); 9 Nov 2000 16:41:06 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO oxygen.americanisp.net) (208.244.174.10) by copper.americanisp.net with SMTP; 9 Nov 2000 16:41:06 -0000 Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 09:40:37 -0700 (MST) From: Peter To: Steve Leibel Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Abusive e-mail message In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I wonder how many abusive letters she is going to get now :) But seriously lay off the crack pipe and lighten up a little, there are a-holes in cyberspace but a)you can't sue them all b)If it offends you don't read them c) Do you also try and sue everyone on the street that looks at you funny or you think they are undressing you with their eyes? *some people definitely need a vacation or really lighten up* "I want to buy a husband who, every week when I sit down to watch `St. Elsewhere', won't scream, `FORGET IT, BLANCHE ...

It looks like you > probably have a similar situation. This definitely sounds like the situation. However, I changed this and I am still getting the same problem. I restarted the sendmail daemon, although I don't think that this should make a difference as the problem is not in receiving mail. My sendmail.cf file exists in /etc/mail. How should I start sendmail so that it reads the configuration file correctly? Thanks, -anthony.

I have had no positive response from the many search attempts that I have contacted. I feel I may know who the sender is, and in my wait and communications I have found that this sender has also abused another beyond belief. I find this kind of behavior to be very upsetting, in that someone can do such a thing through their e-mail service and not be identified. I do intend to take legal action in the event I can positively identify this sender, as it is totally unacceptable behavior and is very deserving of some kind of legal consequence. Please let me know if you can possibly assist me in regard to this matter and I will be more than willing to forward the message that I received and can assure you that the other party in receipt of messages from this sender will be more than willing to do the same. Your anticipated cooperation is very much appreciated. Please respond to Sincerely, Kimberly K. Western Kimberly, I do not speak on behalf of the FreeBSD "group, team or organization", I'm just a common individual. I would simply like to express my distaste for your lack of respect for freedom of speech and anonyminity on the internet. Your desire to sue someone and have them punished for a flaming email makes you an idiot in my eyes. If this message is "abusive" enough for you, you may commence suing me.

I saw a message regarding this and I don't know what the reason was. Something about it's already where it's supposed to be, and changing it can cause instabilities.

I have a single IDE hard drive as the primary master. Right now it is divided into 2 portions, the first for windows and the second for FreeBSD 4.0-R. The first windows slice of the disk is your typical "c drive" there are no extended partions to speak of. I am curious as to what FreeBSD identifies this slice as /dev/xxx so that I can mount it.

I know it works... This is going to sound really dumb, but... 1.) Try moving it into a different PCI slot- I've had to do this before 2.) Go to kingston.com and download the utility for this card use a dos bootdisk and boot into dos, switch disks, run the utility and reprogram the rom for 11/320 or 10/300. FreeBSD likes these!!! 3.)

It's equiped with a 3COM 3C905B ethernet card. I am attempting an FTP install, and when I'm presented with a list of options, I only get PLIP and PPP, no ethernet. The kernel messages go by so fast, I can't tell what's reported about the ethernet device that got probed. I haven't figured out a way to review the kernel messages during the install. The "holographic" shell that's available doesn't seem to allow me to see them via dmesg. Is there something about the Vectra series 8 or the 3C905B that I missed in the archives? Does anyone know how I can review what the kernel messages were during an install?

And since this book is recommended quite often on this list I might recommend everyone check out the deal and pick up a copy. It has cleared up quite a few issues, but I guess what I'm looking for are some good books on setting up firewalls and tcp/ip & udp routing.

Access to information is just as important than food and shelter in the long run. Through my access to the internet I was able to learn Perl and now I am able to make a very nice living doing that. I now maintain multiple servers as a sys/database admin. It all started with me learning on my parents 486 PC. If I were in a country with limited resources I would appreciate access to a system which allowed me to learn and to become aware of opportunities which were not there before. You have to start somewhere. So, to get started with your search for a easy to install OS, I would really try Linux if you are not all too familiar with the hardware. It does a great deal of auto-detecting for you. But if you have a decent understanding of the hardware you could easily use FreeBSD as well. You can purchase a copy for $40 and duplicate it as much as you like. http://www.freebsdmall.com/software/ You may also want to look over EasyBSD. It is a new branch off FreeBSD which aims to make BSD easy for everyday users. http://easybsd.sourceforge.net/ There is also Pico BSD, another FreeBSD branch which is supposed to fit on a floppy. You can boot right off it, but I am not sure the status of that project. http://people.FreeBSD.org/~picobsd/ It seems that project is progressing nicely. I am not sure if you could install a text browser with the dial-up version, but that seems to be a typical user for it. Good Luck!

Further investigation revealed that share/ was missing in /usr/www. I checked that it was in my repo, then ran: cvs update -P www but it didn't check it out. I then used cvs checkout www and this worked (and updated some other stuff as well). I've read the cvs(1) manpage (several times) and I am certain that ``checkout'' is used for creating the tree initially and then ``update'' should maintain the tree, including checking out new files/dirs, deleting ones that have been removed from the repo, and updating changed files/dirs. So why did ``update'' fail to check out www/share? I realize that I may have done something wrong when I checked out www originally, but what was it? and why did it, apparently, delete share/ in the first place?

To the original poster: Compaq usually has two adapters in their machine: the Compaq RAID adapter, and an onboard SCSI adapter that is used for the CDROM/tape device. It's possible that you need to have "device sym0", or "device ahc0" in your kernel in order to recognize this controller. The Array Controller does not present a SCSI interface to the system, so I'm not really sure that you can connect a tape drive to it.

If you had a previous Apache server installed, and the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh wasn't removed before installing this port, then this ports apache.sh script doesn't get installed. Compare your /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh with the ports files/apache.sh.tmpl, if they are not similar you may want to copy apache.sh.tmpl to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh, and then replace PERL5 with the location of your systems perl (/usr/bin/perl), and PREFIX with the prefixed used to install this port (/usr/local by default).

FreeBSD doesn't support Selective ACK right now, but large windows and some other tweaks are supported, I think you want to mess with either the net.inet.tcp.rfc1323 or net.inet.tcp.rfc1644 to tweak those types of options. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

[snip] I can't address your technical questions other than to say that whenever someone scans my FreeBSD boxes -- even my two year old 3.0 box -- some sort of detection mechanism (tcpwrappers?) spews out stuff on the console log window, which is great. I suppose there are more subtle forms of probes that don't trigger these alarms, and that those are what you want to detect. What concerns me is that in the past year there has been a huge increase in the number of households using cable modems (aka RoardRunner). Even small businesses and schools. Few of these people have a clue about network security. Some install a "firewall" application, but I am skeptical about the effectiveness of such programs. As far as I know, cable modem service providers offer no security, not even simple IP address blocking at the router. Are we all being placed at greater risk because of inadequate security measures involving cable modems? Or is the threat a mirage? -- == Gary Dunn == Honolulu == Open Slate Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 11:36:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from shf102107.hi.pac.army.mil (shf102107.hi.pac.army.mil [141.190.102.107]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 36E8A37B4D7 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 11:36:10 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (localhost [[UNIX: localhost]]) by shf102107.hi.pac.army.mil (8.10.1/8.10.1) id eA9JZXw10268; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 09:35:33 -1000 From: Gary Dunn Reply-To: gdunn@mac.com Organization: Open Slate Project To: sharpmind2@371.net, sharpmind2@371.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: how to convert the content of man to plain text Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 09:35:07 -1000 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain References: <20001109050912.22960.fmail@371.net> In-Reply-To: <20001109050912.22960.fmail@371.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <00110909353301.10098@shf102107.hi.pac.army.mil> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, 08 Nov 2000, sharpmind2@371.net wrote: > man is hard to read, how to convert the content to plain text. do man man and read about the -t option -- == Gary Dunn == Honolulu == Open Slate Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 11:39:41 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from guru.mired.org (okc-27-149-77.mmcable.com [24.27.149.77]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A0F8F37B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 11:39:34 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 22749 invoked by uid 100); 9 Nov 2000 19:39:33 -0000 From: Mike Meyer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="tLbh3K88Ki" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14858.64885.826286.985483@guru.mired.org> Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 13:39:33 -0600 (CST) To: Igor Roboul Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: word count in Applix Words In-Reply-To: <74871912@toto.iv> X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under 21.1 (patch 10) "Capitol Reef" XEmacs Lucid X-face: "5Mnwy%?j>IIV\)A=):rjWL~NB2aH[}Yq8Z=u~vJ`"(,&SiLvbbz2W`;h9L,Yg`+vb1>RG% *h+%X^n0EZd>TM8_IB;a8F?(Fb"lw'IgCoyM.[Lg#r\ Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --tLbh3K88Ki Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Description: message body text Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Igor Roboul types: > On Wed, Nov 08, 2000 at 07:44:18AM -0500, Michael Lucas wrote: [I don't have Michael's email address; Igor, if you have it, could you forward this to him?] > > I have a show-stopper problem.

I now have a functioning word count in Applix Words. It's actually the only one I've seen that counts all of characters/words/paragraphs/pages for both the document and the selection.

Just wondering if anyone was heading to Comdex next week. I'll be there for the last two days of the show. This will be my first Comdex show so I don't know what to expect. I'm not sure if going just for the last two days is a bad idea, but I guess I'll learn the hard way since the plans have been made. My employer is sort of sponsoring the trip, although they're being mighty cheap about it (They sent me since I have relatives in Vegas - free room and board - and I'd drive my own car). It would be great if some of us could get together and for for dinner or something. Also, will there be a major BSD presence at Comdex this year? BSDi perhaps? It seems as though there will be a strong Linux crowd so I was curious how strong the BSD presence was going to be. If in case some of you go, I hope to see you there!

When talking about the MFS option I read that the perfect place to mount an MFS partition is in the /tmp directory... and there are directions to add the following to /etc/fstab: /dev/ad1s2v /tmp mfs rw 0 0 and then mount /tmp. I tried that, but noticed that I did not have any such device. Would mounting on /dev/ad0s1c cause any problems. There is no device /dev/ad0s1c in my /etc/fstab, but it seems to be a valid device to mount.

I had been appointed to write the new operating procedures for the MIS department when it comes down to purchasing and computer maintenance. At first it seemed like an easy task, but now after some thought I'm not sure where to begin. I had come up with some procedural topics, but I was wondering if anyone of you had to do something like this that can sort of guide me in the right steps. It seems as though I have to pretty much trace all the steps taken to get things done and pretty much document them. Sounded easy, but the hard part is probably the word play to make things easy to understand since this is mostly goint to be read by managers and the general users. They basically need an understanding on how MIS functions because they assume so many weird things. For some reason they (users) must think that we sit here doing nothing waiting for them (users) to call upon us to be their troubleshooting slave. Go figure! I thought this might be an intersting topic for discussion as far as System Administration procedures are concerned so I'm posting this to both chat and questions (just in case some readers don't subscribe to the same lists). If this was an error in my part, I apologize. Some of the procedural topics that I came up with are: Purchasing Procedures - getting approval, etc. Maintenance Procedures - calling out for maintenance Upgrades Procedures - hardware and software upgrades and others yet to come... I'm wondering what other companies do for such situations. I know everyone operates differently, but some ideas could be usefull. Thanks for the info.

FreeBSD will just use two instances of the same driver and call the second one ed1. Or have you tried installing the second card and are having problems? If not try putting it in. It may come up perfectly right away when you reboot. You may also have to assign the proper IRQ to it. The cards may both want the same IRQ, but they should be configurable with a software utility. Depends on the card. Hope that helped, Tim On Thu, 9 Nov 2000, Drew Tomlinson wrote: > I have added a second network card to my system.

Add the following lines to your kernel config file and recompile: options CLK_USE_I8254_CALIBRATION options CLK_USE_TSC_CALIBRATION That should calibrate two internal clocks against the CMOS clock, which is usually pretty accurate. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 12:28:11 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.cdknet.com (mail.cdknet.com [206.20.234.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A1E0237B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 12:28:08 -0800 (PST) Received: from glass ([192.168.0.25]) by mail.cdknet.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) with SMTP id PAA09222 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:30:29 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from dyu@cdknet.com) Reply-To: From: "Derrick" To: Subject: Suggestion needed for web site analyzer...

I did not see the error message right away, and the next thing I knew the system was rebooting. So, I decided to try it again. Here's what I did: # mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt # cd /mnt # cp I\ Quit.doc ~ vm_fault: pager read error, pid 3379 (cp) <-- from syslog, I think cp: /home/chris/I Quit.doc: Bad address # more I\ Quit.doc panic: vm_fault fault on nofault entry addr: c58f200 << system reboots >> This was on a FreeBSD 3.5-STABLE machine. I was curious at this point, and decided to check if the same thing would happen on my 4.1.1-RELEASE machine: # mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt # cd /mnt # cp I\ Quit.doc ~ vm_fault: pager read error, pid 58 (cp) <-- from syslog, I think cp: /home/chris/I Quit.doc: Bad address # more I\ Quit.doc << Here, I got a couple of screenfuls of junk with @^ and , etc, which is probably OK, since it is a MS-Word doc. >> panic: isa_dmacheck: no physical page present. << system reboots >> I imagine that I should probably submit a bug report for this, since I really don't think a bad floppy should crash my system :). This is not really a major problem, but I think it's an issue. It only happens on the one specific file. I am able to access the other files on the disk without a problem. Has anyone heard of such a thing happening? Why would `more' consistently crash my system, but `cp' not? I think cp handled it properly -- report the error without crashing. The problem is with more. I haven't tried any other commands on the file. What category would this go into? `misc', `kern', `bin', `i386', other? -- Christopher Rued To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 12:36:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from homer.bus.miami.edu (homer.bus.miami.edu [129.171.39.247]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CA9F037B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 12:36:34 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost by homer.bus.miami.edu (8.8.8/1.1.19.2/08Mar98-0513AM) id PAA0000000449; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:36:28 -0500 (EST) Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:36:28 -0500 (EST) From: Adam Blake X-Sender: blake@homer.bus.miami.edu To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: Adam Blake Subject: msn gamezone stuff thru a gateway Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is an issue I have to solve for my roomate as he is running Windows 98 and wants to play MechWarrrior 3 online at msn gamezone. my network topology is as follows...

"." is another name for the current directory. $PWD is a variable that expands to the path of the current directory when it is evaluated. So in your path, "." always looks in the shells current directory when you issue a command. "$PWD" always looks in what the shells current directory was when you added it to PATH.

And some of the information from ps isn't really relevant (pid, resident set size, CPU STATE, etc.) Anyway, you can start collecting statistics by doing: # mkdir /var/account # touch /var/account/acct # accton /var/account/acct Setting accounting_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf will cause it to be turned on during the boot process (but you'll miss processes that exit before it's turned on). The lastcomm and sa commands will then print information about the processes.

But then I haven't added any settings for it in rc.conf either. I'm not sure what to do next. I've looked in Greg's book but I didn't see anything explicit for two cards. And then in looking over my kernel config file, my original NIC (ed0) is defined as follows: device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 10 iomem 0xd8000 However, this card is explicitly set (not PnP - system is way to old) to use IRQ 9 and 0x240. But my NIC has always worked. How? Why? I assume I should edit the line to read: device ed0 at isa? port 0x240 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000 The second NIC has been explicitly set to IRQ 11 and 0x260. My original thought was that I'd need a second line in my kernel config like this: device ed1 at isa? port 0x260 irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 But this is not necessary? I hope I'm not confusing you. The second NIC has been installed. The first worked before the additional NIC was installed and continues to work after installation. However, the second NIC is not in the dmesg output. I'm not sure what steps I need to take to get FBSD to see the second NIC.

That's a bug in ircd, and you'd have to dive into the source to fix it. The standard workaround for memory leaks is to restart the leaky program every so often - which it's doing for you already. If it's not a memory leak, then you need to give ircd more memory. In that case, you should check to see what limit's its got now, and whether you can raise that (with ulimit) before it runs. If worst comes to worst, you'll need to build a kernel with MAXDSIZ raised so you can give it more memory. ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 13:48:23 -0800 (PST) Received: from unix1 (jdt2101@unix1.cc.ksu.edu [129.130.12.3]) by mailhub.cns.ksu.edu (8.9.1/8.9.1/mailhub+tar) with SMTP id PAA26354; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:48:22 -0600 (CST) Received: from localhost by unix1 (SMI-8.6/1.34) id PAA27312; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:48:20 -0600 Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:48:20 -0600 (CST) From: Joshua Delong Thomas X-Sender: jdt2101@unix1.cc.ksu.edu To: Tim McMillen Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: How to change acd0 to /dev/cdrom like most programs want In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG That post about mounting a cd made me think of another question.

I have 1 VPN configured over 2 locations with T1 connections without any problem (using the KAME IPSec on FreeBSD 4.1.1). However, when I tried the same configuration with the 3rd location running DSL, it seems the IPSec packets can't reach out via tun0 device. I've searched through the FAQ and mailing lists, and seen people suggest "pipsecd" for VPN over PPPoE. However, I do prefer using KAME IPSec for this type of implementation, and hope that someone can point me to some lights. Thank you all!

The problem as I understand it is that there is no way to let NAT know what to do with the UDP packets that the game is trying to use. They just get lost at the FreeBSD machine.

It might be a shell feature. But the command line: PATH=$PATH:$PWD should result in '$PWD' being evaluated, and that value should be the *current* working directory. Do you have the four characters "$PWD" in your PATH? If so, then that sounds like a ksh feature to expand variable names in PATH before searching it. I can see uses for that. In which case, "." is a system feature so will work for all shells. It'll also be slightly quicker than "$PWD" (no need to expand it, or look through the directory tree to find "."). ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 14:31:33 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (roop@localhost) by gw.carpoolbc.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA11205; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 14:31:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from roop@gw.carpoolbc.com) Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 14:31:31 -0800 (PST) From: Roop Nanuwa To: Josh Paetzel Cc: webmaster@wmptl.com, questions@FreeBSD.ORG, dristovsk@home.com Subject: Re: OFFTOPIC: Hardware mb/cpu question...

I've just built a new machine using an Abit KT7 m/b (I wanted to use Asus, but I need an ISA slot and Abit is the only Socket A board I could find with one), a 700MHz Athlon T'bird, and 128MB PC133. Got ``make buildworld'' for 4-STABLE down to 3100 seconds (from 9200 on my previous K6 system). Quite a bit cheaper than an equivalent Intel system.

After compiling, there are two thing you need to make sure: 1] Change the file attributes to executable 2] Make sure the dir. is in your path If your compiled file is not in a dir that's part of your path, the system won't find it just like that.. you have to fully qualify it's location.. so instead of just running it by: %> a.out you have to do this: %>./a.out Hope that helps, RSN To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 14:46:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from Awfulhak.org (tun.AwfulHak.org [194.242.139.173]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 468F937B4CF; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 14:46:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from hak.lan.Awfulhak.org (root@hak.lan.awfulhak.org [172.16.0.12]) by Awfulhak.org (8.11.1/8.11.1) with ESMTP id eA9Mgfi22167; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 22:42:41 GMT (envelope-from brian@hak.lan.Awfulhak.org) Received: from hak.lan.Awfulhak.org (brian@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by hak.lan.Awfulhak.org (8.11.1/8.11.1) with ESMTP id eA9MhCB00794; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 22:43:12 GMT (envelope-from brian@hak.lan.Awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <200011092243.eA9MhCB00794@hak.lan.Awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.2 06/23/2000 with nmh-1.0.4 To: Julian Elischer Cc: Mike , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG, brian@Awfulhak.org Subject: Re: VPN over PPPoE In-Reply-To: Message from Julian Elischer of "Thu, 09 Nov 2000 14:24:54 PST." <3A0B2436.EEC5188D@elischer.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Thu, 09 Nov 2000 22:43:12 +0000 From: Brian Somers Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Mike wrote: > > > > Hi all, > > > > Has anyone ever successfully configured VPN (using IPSec protocol) over > > PPPoE connection?

At the moment there *may* be problems with IPSEC if you've got ``nat deny_incoming yes'' in your config.

I suspect the problem is on the PPPoE (running Netgraph PPPoE) side because none of the IPSec packets actually go out from the tun0 device when I sniff the network. The PPPoE alone works fine and dandy, and I have set the MTU to 1492 for tun0 and both the internal and external NICs. The ADSL connection is through Bell Nexxia. I don't know if this gives you enough information about my setup, but if you'd like to know more details, I can draw the network diagram between the T1 site and the ADSL site.

It is not too clever to allow everybody from whole world inspect you internal domain. Also, it is useless if you have in DNS internal IP's. Suggest next strategy: install one set of DNS servers for you legitimate IP addresses (most of all, you will need very small zone, like www.mydomain.com, ftp.mydomain.com and MX record for mydomain.com). Suggest to use you upstream provider's DNS service for this. And install completely internal DNS server, with no possibility to access from outside. Of course, all internal hosts must use you internal DNS as DNS server. > > Thanks for any input... > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 14:57:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from priv-edtnes03-hme0.telusplanet.net (fepout1.telus.net [199.185.220.236]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9999A37B4C5 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 14:57:51 -0800 (PST) Received: from woodsie ([161.184.241.49]) by priv-edtnes03-hme0.telusplanet.net (InterMail vM.4.01.02.11 201-229-116-111) with SMTP id <20001109225751.RWVO20325.priv-edtnes03-hme0.telusplanet.net@woodsie> for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:57:51 -0700 From: "Dave Woods" To: Subject: RE: msn gamezone stuff thru a gateway Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 16:05:25 -0700 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) In-Reply-To: <001501c04a9a$5bec3680$0200000a@vladsempire.net> X-MIMEOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4133.2400 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As far as UDP packets go I can run Unreal Tournament behind a BSD firewall and the UDP packets get routed fine.

Do a "traceroute www.yahoo.com" ( or some other site on the net), and run "ntpq -c 'rv 0 clock' " on each hop, starting at your end. Use the first machine that returns a good time.

Thus, internal hosts reach the internal server on port 53 and external hosts see the external DNS on port 53. Because I have separate static ip addresses for the server and firewall, the firewall can accept packets for the nameserver's IP with an inet alias, and hosts outside the firewall are none-the-wiser.

I don't completely agree with it, but it's hard for a kernel to cope with a trashed or damaged filesystem: "hrm, this is broke, is because the disk itself is bad or is it because internally I've hosed some of my driver or filesystem data structures... I could continue and disallow writes and possibly reads to/from this bad area... but wait what! if my driver state is hosed... and what if the FS corruption is because I messed up some internal structures... and what is the average air speed velocity of a.." *kernel screams and flys into the chasm* I sort of like how solaris will downgrade a mount to read-only when it detects on disk corruption, this should prevent any further corruption if it's a filesystem of driver bug, but it's not very safe and I'm pretty sure the default is still to panic. Moral of all of this is to use the "mtools" for ms-dog floppy access and "dd+fsck+vnconfig" for UFS floppies. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

I have a 3C509B and it is called an Elink III. It uses the ep driver. There were a number of cards that they called Elink III and some were really bad such as the 3C595, which they quit supporting around a 1-2 years ago. The 3C595 uses the vx driver. The problem is Elink III is sort of a family name that has been around for many years. If you don't want to open the box and see what the model is, I would try the ep first and if that doesn't work, I would try the vx drivers. It will either work or it won't.

Or is the threat a mirage? Maybe yes, maybe no. If there are lots of unprotected systems that are on 7x24, that's a problem. A DOS attack with 50,000 PCs scattered all over the network is *much* nastier than anything that can be mounted from even a large university. I don't know how good the "firewall" applications are either. There are some "DSL/Cable routers" that have built-in firewall functionality, and seem pretty good. Since they are nearly plug-n-play for a small LAN of windows boxes (i.e. - just configure the windows boxes as DHCP clients, and you're done), one can hope they become popular for sharing network connections, etc. ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 15:58:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost by homer.bus.miami.edu (8.8.8/1.1.19.2/08Mar98-0513AM) id SAA0000001007; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 18:58:26 -0500 (EST) Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 18:58:26 -0500 (EST) From: Adam Blake X-Sender: blake@homer.bus.miami.edu To: Anthony Rubin Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: pppctl command and usage In-Reply-To: <00110917304501.06767@tonyr.office.generalsearch.net> 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 added the following line to my ppp.conf file to try to get pppctl to work set server +3000 I also tried set server 3000 when I type pppctl 3000 I get the following error pppctl: timeout: cannot connect to socket 3000 any more ideas what I could try or why this would not work? ppp is in -auto mode -Adam On Thu, 9 Nov 2000, Anthony Rubin wrote: On Thursday 09 November 2000 05:26 pm, Adam Blake wrote: > How do you properly use the pppctl command to look at an active ppp > session?

There has to be more to it than that. I mounted an old msdos floppy and did a more of a text file. I only had problems when I tried to unmount it because it was write protected. I took it out, unprotected it, reinserted it and then umounted it. It didn't panic.

It doesn't look for new directories in the respository. From cvs(1): Use the -d option to create any directories that exist in the repository if they're missing from the working directory. (Normally, update acts only on directories and files that were already enrolled in your working directory.) So, instead of `cvs update -P www`, you would do `cvs update -Pd www`.

This belongs on -questions, so I've redirected it. Pppd uses UUCP locks to cooperate with other programs, but if some other process has locked the device (eg a terminal program like cu, or minicom, or another copy of pppd) it will say the device is busy. If you look in /var/spool/lock you may find some files who names begin with LCK, cat them and they should show a process ID, use 'ps -ax' to find out what process is holding the lock. Also, use ppp instead of pppd it is maintained regularly whereas pppd isn't (I think). --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 17:17:57 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from glitch.crosswinds.net (glitch.crosswinds.net [209.208.163.35]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 548B737B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 17:17:53 -0800 (PST) Received: from lexx.my.domain ([195.110.170.87]) by glitch.crosswinds.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA92044; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 20:17:32 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from john253@crosswinds.net) From: John Murphy To: emcgough@bbnow.net (Edward McGough) Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: FreeBSD Install Failure Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 01:17:55 +0000 Organization: The Organisation Reply-To: john253@crosswinds.net Message-ID: References: In-Reply-To: X-Mailer: Forte Agent 1.8/32.548 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Edward McGough wrote: >Here is what I know so far: > >1) I go through the install and select everything correctly, with a = minimal >install for a user. > >2) It gets to the part where it copies the files from the CD to the = system >and fails at the end > >3) The error message it gives is: MAKEDEV Returned non-zero status. > >4) While checking the other terminal (i put it in debug) here are some = the >last couple of lines up to the error: > >Debug: Notify: Remaking all devices...Please Wait >Debug: Executing command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' >MAKEDEV: 762: Syntax Error: ")" unexpected (expecting ";;") >Debug: Command 'cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV all' returns status of 2 > I have 4.1 working fine.

Lanny, I've asked you before to send this kind of message to -questions. I don't know the answer for sure. I could guess an answer, or say "try it and see", but if you have to buy a unit to try, that may be less than sufficient. Maybe somebody else knows the answer.

It wasn't that it was THAT bad, but I didn't say it was horrible. I would love to be able to tell somebody to fix everything I don't like or that I feel needs improvement. But since I can't do the coding myself, I reallize that those that can are volunteering. And I appreciate what everybody does contribute. It was the "Please fix pronto!" That got me. No major deal.

The latest version is 4.1. FreeBSD 4.2 will be released in another week though, and the CD's should be shipping in about 5-6 weeks, so you may want to wait to get the latest version, but that choice is up to you. > This will be a home computer for personal use.

My company has a Xerox 4850 production printer that is front-ended by a Sparc/Solaris machine. I've been using FreeBSD 3.1 for a network print spooler for a while, but now I need filters (this printer does _not_ understand PDF, and I need to print many, many PDF files). It seems that the standard lpr/lpd does NOT allow one to use filters for a remotely-hosted printer. I know that there are alternatives (e.g. LPRng), but I haven't been able to determine if they would allow me to set up a filter that would transparently convert the file to PostScript.

It's been a while, perhaps if you browsed through the APSfilter code you'll find it. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

When you enter a command on the command line the shell looks it up in this hash table. Much faster than searching for the file in all the dirs in your path (not that sh and friends seem all that slow locating commands). rehash rebuilds the hash table on demand when you add new commands.

Thanks, Rehash causes your shell to refresh its "cache" of available commands. Instead of having to search the disk each time you type a command, the shell builds a cache of available commands at login. Rehash tells it to rebuild this cache. Since the command was not there when the cache was built, the shell doesnt know how to find it. later...david -- David Raistrick Digital Wireless Communications davidr@dwcinet.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 19:47:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from primedna.net (unknown [208.179.88.42]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5D62E37B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 19:47:40 -0800 (PST) Received: from sysadmin [208.179.88.24] by primedna.net (SMTPD32-6.05) id AFCC2016029A; Thu, 09 Nov 2000 19:47:24 -0800 From: "Lee Fuller" To: Subject: RE: Several Problems...

ASA would love to sell you a completely configured and ready to use FreeBSD system. I think that would be the way to go if I was starting this all over again. The current RELEASE version is 4.1. That's probably what you'd get if you ordered a FreeBSD system from ASA today. There is documentation at www.FreeBSD.org that describes the difference between RELEASE, STABLE and CURRENT. Oh, by the way. You might want to set your mail software to send plain text all the time. But especially when sending to this group. There's not much justification for sending multipart/alternative when the HTML in the alternative part contains no special markup plain old text.

Try editing the .xinitrc file to have only the line: startkde or create the file like that. Then when the user types startx it will start kde by default. If you'd rather leave fvwm as default, you can just type startkde to get into kde, leave the .xinitrc file alone and type startx to get fvwm. If you've already tried this let us know.

There isn't really a method for choosing them, just use the next one on the list and see what happens. I don't know exactly what kind of card you have, but if it is older it might have jumpers on the card to set the iomem addressing instead of a software utility. Plug and Play has kind of removed us from the joys of configuring hardware, but most cards require one or more irqs, a range of port addresses, and a range of iomem addresses...anytime you are installing two of the exact same card you can run into these issues, but different cards can also conflict with each other as well.....back in about 1982 I remember I has a frobozz fribulator that could use only irq 4, and that's the same irq that my time/date card just had to use as well....neither one of them could be changed, so one of them had to go. As I like to say, I can handle not knowing the time or date, but if my computer can't fribulate, what's the point of life?

I use Dell Optiplex GMT+ 5133, the two HDs are Western Digital Caviar 2850. I met some strange problem. When I use one as master one as slave, I can see both of them by "dmesg". There are ad0 and ad1. But when I try to use /stand/sysinstall ---> configure ---> fdisk there always some block reading error, and only can see ad0. In fact I have ever set up a FreeBSD on each HD, but the file system is full, I need more space so I need 2 HD. Also if I use only each one of the 2 HDs, I can boot to FreeBSD normally. This means the 2 HDs are OK. So I don't know why? Could some one give me some adive? Oh, by the way I can work well on other PC by using one Western Digital Caviar 2850 HD & one Seagat HD. Does this mean two Western Digital Caviar 2850 cannot work well together? Thanks!

The problem comes when you have a larger MTU under FreeBSD than Windows can cope with by default. What ends up happening is that the packet sizes are too large for the Windows machines and so you have data loss between windows machines using FreeBSD as a gateway etc. Cheers, Marc On Thu, Nov 09, 2000 at 12:42:33PM -0500, Tim McMillen wrote: > > That may be how you do it, but correct me if I'm wrong, it's not a very > good idea.

Well, there is a conflict, as the cards are both using the same iomem space. They are both mapping memory to the same address space in RAM and therefore are overwriting each other. If there really is no way to change that then you will not be able to use the cards together. The > cards are LinkSys Ether16 LAN cards if that helps. > > > of a software utility.

Chio will control any SCSI autoloader. How well it controls it depends on the autoloader's capabilities. I've used it with great success on Overland DLT and M4 3490e libraries (they are smart autoloaders with barcode scanners and multiple drives), and with a bit of fiddling, an Exabyte 10h and an ADIC DLT library. You'll have to use tar to back up your systems, since dump has no way to run a "change-tape" script. You should be able to get away with something as simple as "tar cvMF chio.next / ", where "chio.next" is a script that unloads a tape and loads the next tape. I've attached the script I use on autoloaders without barcode support. A better script would be one that parses the output of "chio status -S drive 0" to determine which slot to fetch the next tape from.

The FreeBSD codebase is a constantly expanding thing. There are two branches of development, "STABLE" and "CURRENT." When the stable branch gets good enough, they tag the source at a particular point, which is called "RELEASE," which is the official release which they use to make the CDROMs etc. "SNAPSHOT" is just that, the source code on a particular date from "CURRENT." "CURRENT" is where all of the newest, bleeding edge features go, which will eventually get merged into "STABLE" when they are stable. -- Sincerely, Caleb Land (bokonon@rochester.rr.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 23:32:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from btamail.net.cn (host3.btamail.net.cn [202.106.196.73]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4981937B479 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 23:31:59 -0800 (PST) Received: from USER466([211.99.232.174]) by btamail.net.cn(JetMail 2.5.3.0) with SMTP id jm1023a0bb51f; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 07:30:54 -0000 From: "ÖĐÎÄĆÚżŻÔÓÖž´šÖąĂĹť§ˇţÎńÍřŐž - www.GotoRead.com äŻŔŔÍř -" > Reply-To: www.GotoRead.com äŻŔŔÍř Subject: 600ÖÖÔÓÖžĄ˘IPż¨ČŤ˛ż85ŐŰŁŹžăŔÖ˛żÓĐĂâˇŃÔůơŁĄ To: ϲ°ŽÔÓÖžľÄĹóÓŃĂÇ@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: www.GotoRead.com äŻŔŔÍř - ˇ˘ĐĹłĚĐň Mime-Version: 1.0 Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 15:03:34 +0800 Message-Id: <20001110073159.4981937B479@hub.freebsd.org> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG ÖĐÎÄÔÓÖžżŻÎďäŻŔŔśŠÔġţÎńÍř - GotoRead.com äŻŔŔÍř ĄśĘŔ˝çĘą×°ÖŽÔˇELLEĄˇĄśÉĚŇľÖÜżŻ/ÖĐÎİ楡Ąś¸öČËľçÄÔĄˇĄś˛Ćž­Ąˇ Ąśľç×Ó&ľçÄÔĄˇĄśITž­ŔíĘŔ˝çĄˇĄśNBAĘążŐĄˇĄśĂűłľÖžĄˇĄśĎŁÍűĄˇ Ąś˝ĄżľÖŽÓŃĄˇ600ÓŕÖÖÔÓÖž85ŐŰĂâÓʡќŠÔÄ -----śŠÔÄÔÓÖžľăť÷ŐâŔď http://www.gotoread.com ÁŞÍ¨IPż¨Í¨´ď89¸öłÇĘĐŁŹÖ§łÖšúÄÚÍâÂţÓÎŁŹÓďŇôÇĺÎúŁŹĂÜÂëżÉĐ޸ĥŁ ÁŞÍ¨IPż¨ Ą°ČŤÍř×îľÍźŰĄą°ËÎĺŐŰČČÂôĄŁ ĂćÖľ50ÔŞ ĎÖźŰ42.5ÔŞ(°ËÎĺŐŰ) Á˘ź´˝ÚĘĄ7.5ÔŞ ĂćÖľ100ÔŞ ĎÖźŰ85.0ÔŞ(°ËÎĺŐŰ) Á˘ź´˝ÚĘĄ15ÔŞ ĂćÖľ200ÔŞ ĎÖźŰ170ÔŞ(°ËÎĺŐŰ) Á˘ź´˝ÚĘĄ30ÔŞ ĂćÖľ500ÔŞ ĎÖźŰ425ÔŞ(°ËÎĺŐŰ) Á˘ź´˝ÚĘĄ75ÔŞ ČĂÄúľÄäŻŔŔ¸řÄú´řŔ´˛Ć¸ťĄŁ -----šşÂňIPż¨ľăť÷ŐâŔď http://www.gotoread.com/card/ ĄśĘąÉĐĄˇĎľÁĐĄśĎűˇŃŐߥˇĄś´óÖÚťúоʌĄˇĄśÖĐšúĐÂÎĹÖÜżŻĄˇĄś˝ĄżľČËĄˇ Ąś˛Ćž­ĄˇľČśŕÖÖżŻÎĂâˇŃťńÔůŁŹÓʟľ˝ÄúźŇŁŹťúťáÄѾà -----˛ÎźÓžăŔÖ˛żľăť÷ŐâŔď http://www.gotoread.com/club/ ĂâˇŃÎŞÔÓÖžÉ罨Á˘ÍřŐžŁŹĚᚊרҾľÄÔÓÖžÍřÉϡ˘ĐĐÖ¤śŠź°šă¸ćŇľÎńĄŁ -----ÇëÁŞĎľąžŐžŁştomxing@gotoread.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 9 23:32:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailhost01.reflexnet.net (mailhost01.reflexnet.net [64.6.192.82]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2062237B4CF for ; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 23:32:10 -0800 (PST) Received: from 149.211.6.64.reflexcom.com ([64.6.211.149]) by mailhost01.reflexnet.net with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.197.19); Thu, 9 Nov 2000 23:30:39 -0800 Received: (from cjc@localhost) by 149.211.6.64.reflexcom.com (8.11.0/8.11.0) id eAA7W2L95805; Thu, 9 Nov 2000 23:32:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc) Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2000 23:32:01 -0800 From: "Crist J .

See, http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html But here is the short story. There are two "live" branches of FreeBSD at any one time. CURRENT is the bleeding-edge, experimental development branch. It is for the most part, developers only. STABLE is the other branch. It is better tested and, as the name implies, more stable. Periodically, STABLE is frozen and even more thoroughly tested, while it is in this stage it is called BETA and RELEASE-CANDIDATE. Then this RELEASE-CANDIDATE is blessed as a RELEASE version, the version number is upped by 0.1, pressed on CDs, put on ftp sites, etc. The minute RELEASE is out, small fixes and upgrades start going back into STABLE which now wears the incremented version number too. But again, for empahsis, there are only two live branches, CURRENT and STABLE. RELEASE versions are just STABLE branch snapshots that have been more thoroughly tested and prepared for release as a complete package. RELEASE-CANDIDATE and BETA are just labels for STABLE when it is being prepared to be a RELEASE. Oh, and snapshots are just that. Snapshots of any branch at a given instant. To wrap up, I must tell you that I just lied. There are the 1.0 version jumps. About every *mumble-mumble* (18?) months, there is a freeze of CURRENT and it is thoroughly tested. It is then blessed as a .0 RELEASE. At this point, the tree branches. CURRENT goes off with new exciting changes and STABLE gets bug fixes and incremental upgrades. Actually, I lied twice. Old branches, like the 3.x-STABLE branch, are not instantly dropped, but backported bug fixes steadily decrease with time. Only important security fixes still find their way to 3.5-STABLE, and I don't think anything gets back to 2.2.8-STABLE (don't even ask why that has three numbers, it's not done like that any more) any longer. Actually, that is not that short of a short story. -- Crist J.

That's because FreeBSD doesn't provide the support for video cards. A project called XFree86 does.

See www.xfree86.org/4.0.1/Status.html click on 3dfx (who makes the voodoo) and you'll see there is support for the voodoo3 in xfree86 3.3.6 which is the version that is included with Freebsd. I don't know how good the support for that card is, but it exists. Somebody else could comment if the card works well or not. > Sincerely, > Anthony Accurso You may get better response from this list if you make sure your email is sent as plain text instead of html. Html doesn't look good on the mailers that most people on this list use. Try instaling it (good instructions at www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html) and see. FreeBSD also works very well without any graphics. It supports pretty much any graphics card in text mode. Good Luck!!

Thanks, As root, do 'periodic weekly' to rebuild the locate database, then 'locate netatalk' would give something - I hope.

I think there are issues with /stand/sysinstall playing with disks if you don't boot into it (or there used to be?). Is this disk only going to have FreeBSD on it? If so nuke the MSDOS partition table, # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rad1 count=32 Then label it, # disklabel -w -r ad0 auto Now, add partitions, # disklabel -e -r ad0 Then put filesystem(s) on the partition(s). If you want, for some reason, to keep a MSDOS partition table on the drive, you can play with fdisk(1) to get the disk setup. That is even more fun. > Oh, by the way I can work well on other PC by using one Western Digital Caviar 2850 HD & one Seagat HD. Does this mean two Western Digital Caviar 2850 cannot work well together? Shouldn't make a difference. If you got good dmesg output on the device, you are probably in good shape. -- Crist J.

I need to shape the traffic in a very specific way. I am using ipfw pipe feature, but that's not enough for me now or i might be missing some features present in ipfw traffic shaping. So, what i need to do is to allocate for MAIL ports (POp3, SMTP, et.c) bandwidth at least 32Kbit, but if more available it can be used to. The channel is 64/128 FR, but it is always working in 128K mode. So, what i need to do is to split the channel is a bunch of preudo FR channels N/128. For example: Mail: 32/128 Interactive shells (telnet, ssh): 16/128 Hi priority ftp, http: 32/128 Others: 32/128 So, the summ of the guaranted bandwidth for each pipe is never more than the maximum speed of the channel (e.g.128Kbit). I hope i am explaining this clear. It might look like creating a single 128K pipe, and the piping through this pipe a bunch of other pipes, which are dynamic (say, 16 and UP), so the minimum speed will be 16 and if something is available in the main 128K pipe the subpipe will use it. So, it is possible to shape traffic like this?

Maybe somebody else knows the > answer. ;-) Hi, for example, we have Exabyte EZ-17 autoloader with M2 tape drive. /bin/chio works very well. There is only one bug/feature, which I do not like (I have contacted our support and I hope it will be solved): If I turn on autoloader and there is a tape in the tape drive, it refuses to scan slots in a bay (cartridge). If you could not use chio, there is a sequential mode (http://www.exabyte.com/suppserv/pubs/library/ez17/32882403.pdf, Chapter 8: Sequential Operation), where tape eject (mt offline) is sufficient to pass through tapes in a cartridge. If you want M2 tape drive too, it has to be very new drive (and new tapes)! -- Rudolf Cejka (cejkar@dcse.fee.vutbr.cz; http://www.fee.vutbr.cz/~cejkar) Brno University of Technology, Faculty of El.

I'm not going anywhere without my init. Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to ask for your comments on the following badness :- . lpr ceased to work from the command line of an xterm (trace shows the lpr client sending the P command but sending no data; interestingly enough Netscape could still use lpr to print HTML with ghostcript). It may well have also failed from the console. There were no signs of problems in dmesg, o /var/log/lpd-errors, or /varr/log/messages. . reboot (several) shows normal device probes, file system checks but then panics with init signal 6 exit 0 panic: I'm not goiing anywhere without my init rebooting in 10 seconds .... After booting the system with the live File System CD (thank you CDROM.COM, thank you), and mounting the root file system of the defunct 4.1-R system, I had a look at init. It was there and it looked fine. Copying init from the 4.0-RELEASE system (the only live file system I had), enabled the system to boot (and print with lpr) Please would you consider commenting on . was there any relationship between the problem with lpr and the boot failure (perhaps I ought to drag out the McKusick et al) . why on earth would init call abort() (the origin of the SIGABRT) ? . if init became "damaged", how could that happen - there's no sign of problems reported by fsck / . is anything else likely to be "damaged". Should I reinstall - this is a desktop, so the cost is not great ? For what it's worth, this system is a personal desktop that runs kde 1.1.2, navigator 4.72, quite a few rxvts and ktelnet sesssions, and Citrix Metaframe (Linux client). It does all this with a P5 166 Mhz CPU, 32MB of RAM, and ~ 1GB IDE (1 MB S3 graphics for the video connisseurs) It's slow but reliable and stable. I am really pleased that when the machine failed, I did not have to reinstall or do the usual MS stuff (format reload , do it a few more times until it works.) As should be failrly obvious, I know very little about Unix; however such is the simple yet robust structure of the system that it's easy to fix and diagnose. Has anywone in the history of computing known of MS systems being repaired ? It is wonderful having a system that is such a good friend: reliable to the point of being faithful, obedient and helpful. Thank you, Yours sincerely, S Hopcroft IP Australia.

I have a problem, here... :( I have a pc with FreeBSD-STABLE 4.1.1 I'm very happy with, but now I need to add a second bootable OS on it beside FreeBSD. I know that if I just go with the second OS installation program, it will wipe out my FreeBSD bootsector and most likely all FreeBSD, and that must not happen! On this pc I have a 10GB ata disk and a good part of it is free. Questions: 1. Is there an easy way to install the second os on the same disk or (as I'm more oriented to) take out FreeBSD disk, add another disk, install the second os on that disk, reinsert the FreeBSD disk as the primary disk, and then use FreeBSD tools to configure a dual boot? And if that's the way to go, can anybody help me out with that? 2. At present I only have the following partitions: /dev/ad0s1a / ufs /dev/ad0s1b none swap /dev/ad0s1e /var ufs /dev/ad0s1f /usr ufs I would like to split /usr (which is about 8GB) in two or more... Any hints on how to do that without loosing the valuable data that is already on /usr ? Please answer to my mailbox as well, as I'm not on the list.

Use the port. Ditto with Netscape (the Linux version of Netscape tends to be more stable, at least for me, and works with stuff like the flash plugin). For Netscape: Choose one of the Netscape ports in /usr/ports/www.

I have tried different include with -D -I -T and so forth but nothing seems to work. I'm NOT used to imake and could use some help.

I set my security level in /stand/sysinstall to the highest. After that i tried to launch my X server and i get the error cannotread config file. I backtracked and thought maybe this high security level deal won't allow me to run X so i disabled it set it to low and will secure by hand. i still can't startx. when i reboot it still says moving security level 0-1 or something of that nature. Is there a way to bring it back down to 'normal' or whatever thedefault was. I think this may be the reason why my X is broken.

Any comments on the following are appreciated. I just set up a 16GB mirrored volume (RAID-1) with vinum on FreeBSD 4.1.1 using two 16GB harddisks. Vinum is great and I think I got it to work after all, but I have still some questions remaining. By the way, is there a way to get vinum's own version number out of vinum? This would be helpful for reference purposes as in this text. I find the vinum man pages quite clear and helpful, but I was unsure about how to prepare the new disks, i.e. what to do exactly *before* putting them into the vinum configuration with "vinum create", and what exactly to do *afterwards* (when vinum finally provides them as a single volume). There was not much help on this topic from the vinum manpages; is there any further documentation on this topic available (except, of course, the manpages dedicated for "disklabel" and "newfs", which do not cover aspects of application order)? To set up the mirrored volume, I tried the following, based on the "mirror" example from vinum(8). The two 16GB disks are /dev/da1 and /dev/da2. Can anyone tell me, whether what I did is halfways reasonable (for my config file, see below)? 1. disklabel -w -r da1 auto disklabel -w -r da2 auto (to get the new disks labeled initially) 2. disklabel -e disklabel -e (to manually create a vinum partition on both disks, see below for "disklabel" output) 3. vinum: create -v init -v -w mirror.p0 init -v -w mirror.p1 start mirror start mirror.p1.s0 4. newfs -v /dev/vinum/mirror (to put a filesystem on the volume) Doing so, the following problems occured (any comments appreciated): In step 3: Before "start mirror.p1.s0" (starting the subdisk of the second plex explicitly), the first of the plexes was in state "up" (as should be), but the second was shown as "faulty", which I had not expected (see vinum(4): "faulty: a plex which has gone completely down because of I/O errors"); vinum(8) (section GOTCHAS) says, the state of all newly-created plexes except the first would be "stale". Nevertheless, following the "start mirror.p1.s0" command, the subdisk was revived and afterwards showed state "up" as wanted. In step 4: vinum(8) and vinum(4) tell to run "newfs" on the *raw* volume device, e.g. "/dev/vinum/rmirror". There was no such device in my case, nor could I find any directory named "/dev/rvinum" (as in the example directory listing in vinum(4), section OBJECT NAMING), instead the only device I found was "/dev/vinum/mirror". I tried a "newfs" command on it and it seems to work. Nevertheless, I don't know what happend exactly doing so and I don't feel very well with this. It would be helpful if vinum itself could list the created volume device name(s) with the "list" command. The vinum configuration file I used: # vinum config file drive d1 device /dev/da1a drive d2 device /dev/da2a volume mirror plex org concat sd length 0 drive d1 plex org concat sd length 0 drive d2 Output of "disklabel da1" command (same for da2): # /dev/da1c: type: SCSI disk: QUANTUM <--snip--> 8 partitions: # size offs. fstype ... a: 35861388 0 vinum # (Cyl. 0-17510*) c: 35861388 0 unused # (Cyl. 0-17510*) Some suggested man page improvements: - I didn't find a notice, what the device names of the volumes are, which I just created, i.e. on which device I had to run "newfs" and which to mount finally. It seems that for the mirror example a device "/dev/vinum/mirror" was created. This could be explained in more detail and the device names perhaps be listed in section FILES in vinum(8). - The default location for the vinum logfile (vinum(8), section "LOG FILE") seems to be /var/log/vinum_history, not /var/tmp/... . The logfile should also be mentioned in vinum(8), section FILES. - A small subsection and an example in vinum(8) regarding how and in which order to initialize new disks before they can be used from vinum (i.e. "disklabel" command) would be nice; and also an example of what to do until the new vinum volume can be mounted anywhere ("newfs" command). This could be inserted in vinum(8) in section HOW TO SET UP VINUM. In my case, I've already installed some hundreds of gigabytes of diskspace on Solaris, Linux and Windows systems, but the procedure for each system differs more or less completely from the others concerning the tools to use and the order in which to use them, therefore I had appreciated some information on this in the vinum context. Thanks a lot for your answers!

The only thing I can't seem to get working is my ethernet card. It's built-in the the laptop as well as the 56K modem. Windows reports the Ethernet card as 'Xircom Ethernet 10/00 + Modem 56' on IRQ 3. In the kernel config file there's a line with 'xe' as the device and it says beside it 'Xircom Ethernet'. Unfortunately... it doesn't 'just work'. I've tried about as much stuff as I know to do but can't get it working. In the kernel config file I've tried changing 'xe' to 'xe0 isa? irq3' but that doesn't work. Should there be anything in kernel.config? I've tried with nothing in there and with 'di xe0\nq', niether worked. I'm not very experienced with laptops... an don't know much about how they work. Would the internal Ethernet card be a PCMCIA card? or a normal card? Any advice is appretiated.

The images should be just perfect. floppies/boot.flp includes both the kernel and the root filesystem and is only for use if you have a 2.88MB floppy drive. If you don't (which is probably the case), grab two disks, label one "kernel" and one "mfsroot." Then get both floppies/kern.flp and floppies/mfsroot.flp. These are floppy images, so you will need a way to copy them to your newly labeled disks. If you have a UNIX box handy, you can use your favorite friend 'dd' or, if you are using a DOS/Windows box, you can use rawrite, which can be found at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/tools. Simply run rawrite, supply it with the neccessary information, and you'll have your boot and root disks. > My machine has only 160 MB harddrive and 4MB Ram.

The installer requires 5MB of RAM, but you can run FreeBSD with only 4. I'm assuming these two boxes are using SIMMS, so just borrow some RAM from one box just to install FreeBSD. Afterwards you can run with 4, although I'd recommend you get at least 16. > Can someone help guide me through? I have been at this for quite some > times and think I have run to an end. Need help. One day I will be able > to help others too. Well, this should get you booted and into position to start installing FreeBSD. From this point, you should be able to follow the on-screen instructions. If in doubt, reference the text files that are in the root directory of the distribution (INSTALL.TXT, TROUBLE.TXT, etc). > Thank you very much. You are very welcome. Good luck.

I dunno maybe I am on glue :) There are several options, depending on exactly what you want to do. Let me see if I got this right: You sit at a machine with a normal IP address, on the net. There is a NAT box on the net too. Behind the NAT box are NT servers you want to reach. These NT servers could reach you via the NAT box. You want to initiate a connection to the NT servers. Of course, from your viewpoint, the NT servers share one IP. Correct? Hopefully you can set VNC port numbers on the client. If not, the problem gets harder but can still be solved. Now, since you might not love my solution, I'll wait for you to say you really need it. :-) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 8: 3:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tsmtppp1.teleline.es (unknown [195.235.113.151]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6DEA437B479 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 08:03:44 -0800 (PST) Received: from terra.es ([193.152.206.254]) by tsmtppp1.teleline.es (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with SMTP id G3TGJD04.S6B; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 17:02:01 +0100 From: "Top Cars" To: "Spain visitor"@FreeBSD.ORG, Spain_Visit@spain.com Subject: Spain special car rental offer Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1" Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 17'03'38 +0100 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Message-Id: <20001110160344.6DEA437B479@hub.freebsd.org> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

Loki is having beta signups now, announcement is at: http://www.lokigames.com/press/archive.php3?11092000 the beta form is here: http://odin.lokigames.com/ This is the type of stuff everyone in the *nix community is looking for to bring more people in :). This, at least, is one of the steps in me moving away from windows, seeing as Tribes is the only game that I have thats not ported, that I play a lot anyhow :). AFAIK, T2 is being ported all the way, which means T2 server for bsd as well. they're hoping for a simultaneous release of the *nix and windows version.

If you ahve some sort of set-up utility for it you might want to try changing the card to a different irq. This is total speculation on my part, but when OpenBSD did it's little blurb, the only number that looks at all like an irq is the dev 14....if that were to be the irq that the card was trying to use (and I am in no way claiming that it is) then life would be bad, cause that is where the primary IDE controller is these days.

Actually, this is not true, at least not in recent versions of lpr. You mentioned you were using freebsd 3.1, and I am not sure if that includes the change to support 'if=' filters. What I do know is that there are a number of places in the documentation (such as comments in /etc/printcap) which STATE that lpd does not allow filters for remote print queues, even though lpd does support it. You might want to try setting up an 'if=' filter on the queue to the remote printer. If it does work, you're all set. If it doesn't, then contact me and I'll see if there's some easy way we could update your version of lpd without requiring that you update the entire system. (assuming your version of lpd does support 'if=' filters, then you'd probably want to use apsfilter to do the actual conversion from pdf to postscript) -- --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 10: 3:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from www14.gmx.net (www.gmx.net [194.221.183.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7FE9137B4CF for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 10:03:23 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 27521 invoked by uid 0); 10 Nov 2000 18:03:22 -0000 Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 19:03:22 +0100 (MET) From: Moritz Hardt To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: sniffit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-Authenticated-Sender: #0008050902@gmx.net X-Authenticated-IP: [209.214.44.165] Message-ID: <27467.973879402@www14.gmx.net> X-Mailer: WWW-Mail 1.5 (Global Message Exchange) X-Flags: 0001 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I tried to test sniffit on my machine: (sniffit -t my.comp.u.ter), but it didn't give me any output on my console.

Nothing valid at the moment because I tried recompiling my kernel with the following lines hoping that the probe would fill in the details. (I think that's what "at isa?" means?): device ed0 at isa? device ed1 at isa? Anyway, only ed0 was found. ed1 was not defined so now I'm recompiling with the following: device ed0 at isa? port 0x240 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000 device ed1 at isa? port 0x260 irq 11 iomem 0xd0000 I assume the iomem parameter for ed0 was determine during setup somehow. I didn't write the line originally. It was in my GENERIC config after the original install of 4.0. The other interesting part is that the port and irq were set to 0x280 and 10, respectively but the card was set to 0x240 and 9. The motherboard doesn't have PnP but the network card still worked. In any case, I thought it would be better to set it correctly. Then when I added the 2nd NIC, I just copied the first line and changed the values. > did you add 'ed1' to your network interfaces in rc.conf? Yes. Here's my entries: network_interfaces="ed0 ed1 lo0" ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="192.168.0.1" Am I missing something? > i recently had a problem with an NE2000 nic in a NEC which > had onboard > video and sound > that used most of the irq's... > i got around it somehow by defining the same nic with different irq > settings in the kernel. I don't think this is the problem here. They are just simple network cards with no added features. Thanks for your help! I'd really like to get this working so I can venture into firewalls, NAT, and routing.

Thanks but I don't think that's my problem here as the self-tests were OK using the setup utility with both cards. Plus the one that is found and working is using irq 9. The other is using irq 11.

User ppp in interactive mode can talk to both of them. ppp in auto seems to intialize ok, and can dial and connect on the first modem. However, it can't authenticate with the server, and I can't read the log well enough to determine why. It looks like the server is asking for PAP, but after ppp sends the username and password something seems to go wrong and I don't know what. I tried it with a unix-style login chat script, but that's definitly wrong. The server never sends a login: prompt in the clear. I checked that in interactive mode too.

Maybe you are not using the right name ? DOS extended partitions are mapped starting from ad0s5 on. If you include something like what follows in your /etc/fstab (depending on the drives/slices you have ) you should be able to mount them with # mount /dos # mount /E /etc/fstab: /dev/ad0s5 /dos msdos rw,noauto 0 0 /dev/ad0s6 /E msdos rw,noauto 0 0 > thx in advance, HTH > > ivan Manuel Garcia To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 10:47:16 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from darkstar.qx.net (darkstar.qx.net [208.235.88.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B3B2637B479 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 10:47:13 -0800 (PST) Received: from smtp.qx.net (lightning.qx.net [208.235.88.22]) by darkstar.qx.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id NAA17082 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 13:47:11 -0500 Message-Id: <200011101847.NAA17082@darkstar.qx.net> X-Priority: Sensitivity: Company-Confidential From: Steven Curtis Reply-To: sjc@qx.net To: Subject: Re: Install question Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 13:45:18 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just for the info, this will be important for anyone trying to install *BSD on a comercial system originally sold to run MS WIN 95/98/NT.

It depends what you're trying to accomplish here. When your server closes, the file descriptor automatically closes, thus closing the TCP connection as well. What's likely hapenning here is that the socket is in TIME_WAIT (see Stevens TCP/IP Illustrated vol I p. 241-246). The general idea here is that TCP forbids the reuse of a socket while there might be outstanding data associated with that connection. The exact length of the timeout varies from OS to OS. On FreeBSD I believe it's two minutes. After that time you'll be able to bind() again. There's no need to clean this up. It will go away on its own. However, if you want to bind() to the same socket immediately, you can use the SO_REUSEADDR setsockopt() when you bind() (both times). -Ekr [Eric Rescorla ekr@rtfm.com] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 11:53: 2 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pike.osd.bsdi.com (pike.osd.bsdi.com [204.216.28.222]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E741337B4C5 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 11:53:00 -0800 (PST) Received: from laptop.baldwin.cx (john@dhcp241.osd.bsdi.com [204.216.28.241]) by pike.osd.bsdi.com (8.11.0/8.9.3) with ESMTP id eAAJq7H78702; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 11:52:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <20001110213953.W6201@draenor.org> Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 11:52:44 -0800 (PST) From: John Baldwin To: Marc Silver Subject: Re: latest stable FreeBSD Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org, "alexander g. saltanov" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 10-Nov-00 Marc Silver wrote: > Hi there, > > I dont know if there are retail outlets in Russia that sell it, but you > can buy it online from www.cdrom.com. :) You probably want to head to www.FreeBSDMall.com instead.

I wouldn't. Some failures you *never* find an explanation for. These are sometimes called "cosmic ray failures", the implication being that a stray cosmic ray zapped a bit at the wrong time.

Yes, if you are sufficiently conversant with MS software, you can repair them instead of fix them. The level of training required for that is *much* higher than for FreeBSD, though.

I set up some diskless clients and I setup up a display server, from which the diskless client takes its kernel and get its chooser. When doing an indirect query to our computer center's chooser host, I can obtain a login from any host I can select in chooser, but I can not do the same when serving a chooser out of on of our machines, although I configured it to serve the same hosts as the computer center! When doing a direct query I could obtain any display from these appropriate hosts, but not when selecting them by the chooser. Maybe this ist some kind of foolish installation, I use IPFIREWALL but opened all UDP connections through our local LAN so this should not the reason. Can anybody imaging what's going wrong? It would be nice if there could be a helpful hint or tip, thanks in advance for your help, Oliver - MfG O.

I have increased the max. process number and max. user number of the FreeBSD OS. Also I have created the Pseudo-terminal files in /dev directory, but I still get the Xlib error message, why.

You need 5 MB of RAM to install FreeBSD, but only 4MB to run. Your biggest problem will be your hard drive. 160MB is roughly enough to install the base system. If you plan on doing anything with the FreeBSD source (such as creating a custom kernel in order to use IP firewalling) you will need a larger hard drive. -- Matthew Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 13:58:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from rapidnet.com (rapidnet.com [205.164.216.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1F15737B479; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 13:58:22 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (nick@localhost) by rapidnet.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA20849; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 14:58:17 -0700 (MST) Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 14:58:17 -0700 (MST) From: Nick Rogness To: Admin Cc: freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Problem: Setup ipfw Firewall In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 10 Nov 2000, Toni Pisjak wrote: > Hello ! > > (Sorry to the "ipfw" mailinglist, but i didn't get an answer from > freebsd-questions, but perhaps you can help me). > > I have problems to setup a firewall on FreeBSD 4.1.

If Client0 and Client1 on the same network (logical) then you will want to BRIDGE. If not, then route. It appears in the above example that the 2 networks are on different (layer3) networks, so route! > Another question: The decision to send a packet to which NIC is only made > through the firewall rules, or is there another thing to do ? No. The routing decisions are made by the FreeBSD routing internals, not the firewalling. Firewalling looks at those packets and performs actions based on rules. There are, of course, certain instances when firewalling can change a packets destination/etc...like the fwd option of ipfw. Nick Rogness - Drive defensively. Buy a tank.

You don't need to go that far. Just "mv /sbin/init /sbin/init-broken" before installing the new one and rebooting. You can then examine it at your leisure. To: Garance A Drosihn Cc: "David E.

We use the OpenBSD version of OpenSSH, and it doesn't include PAM code. I understand the "portable version" does, but I haven't tried to extract patches. It may make more sense to give up on the OpenBSD version and switch to the portable one - e.g. it would probably be easier to get FreeBSD changes backported. Currently it's almost impossible to get OpenBSD to accept code changes from us :-( Kris --CUfgB8w4ZwR/yMy5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjoMfLAACgkQWry0BWjoQKV1IACg1tTR8LP1VFWz16r5g/s7aOmf A+8An3roCxfA+7Glo8Gn243OEqEwCacr =j1c0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --CUfgB8w4ZwR/yMy5-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 15:14:19 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from www3.pacific-pages.com (www3.pacific-pages.com [192.41.48.219]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2AF9D37B479 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 15:14:18 -0800 (PST) Received: from d.tracker ([216.191.72.206]) by www3.pacific-pages.com (8.8.5) id QAA19318; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 16:13:47 -0700 (MST) Received: (from david@localhost) by d.tracker (8.9.3/8.9.3) id SAA01409 for questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 18:13:16 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from david) Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 18:13:16 -0500 (EST) From: David Banning Message-Id: <200011102313.SAA01409@d.tracker> To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Linksys Ethernet cards supported?

You could go through that... there's also another option, since you mentioned that you only need command line viewing. Grab a few terminals from ebay and connect them to the serial ports on your machine. If you need more than 2, there are multi-port serial cards available too. Check the HCL on the FreeBSD site before buying one though, as some of them won't support modem use (i.e. BOCA 1004,1008,etc) just in case you decide you might want a modem on one of those lines in the future. -Otter Do I get any change back after giving my two cents? }-----Original Message----- }From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG }[mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of }dmp@aracnet.com }Sent: Friday, November 10, 2000 2:58 PM }To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG }Subject: Multiple video terminals? } } }Does FreeBSD support multiple video terminals, yet?

Thanks for your time! I am still attempting to get a 2nd NIC working in my box I can connect to an external DSL modem and do NAT. Here's the situation: 1. I have 2 identical LinkSys ISA 10-baseT cards that are NE2000 compatible. One (ed0) has been in the system and working reliably since I built the system this summer. It is set to IRQ 9 and address 240H. My system in not PnP. The second (ed1) was added yesterday and has never worked properly in this system but was working fine in the Windows 2000 system it was removed from. It is set to IRQ 11 and address 260H. Both cards passed all tests in the configuration software. 2. The original kernel config that was created during installation showed ed0 as "device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 10 iomem 0xd8000" but was configured as IRQ 9 and address 240H. I don't know where the 0xd8000 came from and there are no settings available in the setup software that resemble that number. However, the card still worked and always has worked. I edited the original "device ed0" line to reflect the correct settings. Then I copied and edited for ed1. So the lines were as follows: device ed0 at isa? port 0x240 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000 device ed1 at isa? port 0x260 irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 3. I also edited /etc/rc.conf to include ed1: network_interfaces="ed0 ed1 lo0" ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="192.168.0.1" 4. Then I recompiled and restarted the system. Upon restart, I get the following message: Nov 10 11:47:48 blacksheep /kernel: ed1: device timeout dmesg reports the following: ... ed0 at port 0x240-0x25f iomem 0xd8000 irq 9 drq 0 on isa0 ed0: address 00:40:05:66:b2:55, type NE2000 (16 bit) ed1 at port 0x260-0x27f iomem 0xd0000 irq 11 on isa0 ed1: address 00:40:05:66:b2:52, type NE2000 (16 bit) ...

Someone earlier pointed out that the iomem addresses of 0xd8000 were the same so I switched ed1 to be 0xd0000 and recompiled. Same errors as above. Then thinking that "at isa?" means "probe and see what you find", I removed everything after "at isa?" and recompiled again. This time only ed0 was found but it still worked. So now I'm looking things over and see that at the beginning of dmesg, there lines like this: ... config> en ed0 config> po ed0 0x240 config> ir ed0 9 config> iom ed0 0xd8000 config> f ed0 0 config> q ... What is "config>" and should there be something there for ed1 as well? Is this my problem? I'd appreciate any help, thoughts, nudges, etc. I'm new to both Unix and FBSD so I may be missing something really basic. Thanks!

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

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

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

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

Hi, I don't have netatalk installed right now, but I think that the manpages you want to look for are: atalk(4) afpd(8) atalkd(8) papd(8) These should point you to the other pages. On linux these usually go in /usr/man or /usr/local/man, I'm assuming the ports put them in the same place.

Has anyone ever used these routers? Are they > better/worse/same as having a FreeBSD GW? I've got a LinkSys Cable/DSL Router. If you've got a collection of non-servers you want to cram behind a single IP address, it does an excellent job of being a plug-n-play solution. For the most part, they did things right - configuration via HTTP, it has *nothing* listening on the internet side, etc. I just wish I could disable NAT completely, but that's quirk of what I want to do. Overall, I'm happy with it and don't have any problem recommending it for people who need such a thing. It's different from a FreeBSD box. If you get the 100BaseT router version, it's one less box to deal with, and a lot smaller than anything you're likely to install as a FreeBSD gateay. It's a lot less expensive than a FreeBSD box and a 100BaseT router. A FreeBSD box could be configured to do the same job, plus some things it won't do. FreeBSD also means you have source, which always gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. The real question is - why the change? This thing isn't doing anything the FreeBSD box can't do, so there's no reason to change. If they're trying to cut maintenance costs, or free up rack space, or upgrade something, that might make sense. Otherwise, there's no reason to make this replacement. ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 19:46:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from vadim (vadim.vitebsky.com [192.168.2.2]) by ns.vitebsky.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id OAA10775 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 14:33:30 +0500 (YEKT) (envelope-from vadim@vitebsky.com) Message-ID: <000501c04b9a$a45bcba0$0202a8c0@vitebsky.com> From: "Vadim Vitebsky" To: Subject: Samba Speed Problem Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 09:48:30 +0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit 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 Dear Collegues! I have a very small network with only 2 client PC and one SERVER without a hub or switch. There are 2 NIC's in my server. One (Netgear FA310TX) - to the first computer (NIC - Netgear FA310TX). And second (Netgear FA310TX) to another computer (NIC - Realtek 8139). I have a 100MBit in my network. Connections via server and clients are made by 2 cross-cables (UTP). Question: When I connect to my smbd share, I can read information from it with a full speed, I think (7-8MBytes/sec - 100Mbit, I think). Unfortunately, Whe I try to write down some information to this share from any clients I see, that the speed is so small (1-1.2MB/sec - 10MBit, I think). The CPU of the server almost idle in this process (90% idle). Can I write to my smbd share with a full speed? (I think, this troubles is not connected to my hardware, because there are Pentium II 300, 128MB, Fujitsu MPF 20GB as a server). Can you help me?

Some one configed ed0 properly for you via the userconfig option. This does the same thing as "ed0 at isa? port 0x240 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000" in the kernel config file. You could use this to set up ed1 instead of the kernel config file - but if you've got an IRQ conflict, it won't work any better than the kernel config. ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 19:55:51 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (wea@localhost) by trevarno.llnl.gov (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA00954; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 19:55:47 -0800 (PST) Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 19:55:46 -0800 (PST) From: Ed Alley To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: wea@llnl.gov, Ed Alley Subject: FreeBSD hangs when running ghostscripe as a print filter.

What I did is to re-compile the kernel and choose for the parallel port chipset driver: flags=0x61 According to the man page for ppc this disabled the IRQ by choosing bit 5 to be on (leaving the other bits aside). I found this by trial and error. The man pages are not very clear on what all the options are for these drivers. I still don't understand how the ppbus controller and drivers work or what all of those options mean. Also, it seems to me that the man page for lpt is out of date. If someone could show me how to find out how all this works I would be willing to have a crack at writing up some new man pages.

Hello: My name is Ed Alley. I am running FreeBSD 3.3 on my home computer. I have sent you two attachments: my printcap file and a simplified version of the printer filter that I am running. Whenever I output a large Postscript file, it appears that Ghostscript takes all of the CPU ticks; it holds on and won't release the CPU. While I wait for it to finish, my X-window pointer freezes and sometimes the system freezes permanently; I have even had it panic on me with a page fault. Do you have any idea what is going on?

This option allows a process to bind to a well-known port even if other connections already use that port. For more info see Stevens, Unix Network Programming Volume 1 2nd edition, pg 194. Some people like SO_LINGER better than SO_REUSEADDR, but Stevens says to use not to use SO_LINGER for various reasons (pg 187). After you create the socket via socket(2), you should probably call setsockopt similar to the following to get the desired behavior: int flags = 1; ... if (setsockopt(sock_listen, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, (void *)&flags, sizeof(flags)) < 0) { close(sock_listen); perror("Error"); } HTH, ----ranga To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 20:32:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail3.new.rr.com (mail3.rdc-detw.rr.com [24.30.0.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A924137B479 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 20:32:52 -0800 (PST) Received: from pael ([24.164.235.228]) by mail3.new.rr.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.197.19); Fri, 10 Nov 2000 23:33:29 -0500 Reply-To: From: "Rak" To: "Mike Meyer" , "Drew Tomlinson" Cc: Subject: RE: What Is config> During Boot?

This may not be the case here, but I've seen similar things with a pair of NE2000 cards that I have. The DOS setup programs will only let the IRQ and I/O port be set. Regardless of what I specify in the kernel config, somehow during the probe the correct values for IOMEM are returned and the cards work happily together. > This could be the cause of: > > > ed1: device timeout I've also seen this. I've found the cause of this is that some NE2000 cards require a cable (link signal) be present, otherwise it churns out timeout errors. (This used to wreak havoc when my cable or DSL modem would go offline during the night, filling up the log file with timeouts.) -- Matthew Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 10 21:28:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from straylight.brsp.net (unknown [63.116.153.166]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 572E737B479 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 21:28:20 -0800 (PST) Received: (from mtp@localhost) by straylight.brsp.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id VAA14977 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 10 Nov 2000 21:31:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mtp) Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 21:31:06 -0800 From: Matt Pillsbury To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Upgrade question.

In the FAQ on the webpage, they suggested using binary snapshots. So I went to do that via FTP, and found out that I need a current version of sysinstall. Normally, I'd just boot from floppies, but I don't have a floppy drive. What's the easiest way to get a current sysinstall with which to upgrade?

You did say it was 4.1.1, right? There are no longer block devices in FreeBSD. All of the vinum objects are now raw devices and my docs have fixed the references, > Some suggested man page improvements: > > - I didn't find a notice, what the device names of > the volumes are, which I just created, i.e. on > which device I had to run "newfs" and which to > mount finally.

Again, from my vinum(4), o Unlike UNIX drives, vinum volumes are not subdivided into partitions, and thus do not contain a disk label. Unfortunately, this confuses a number of utilities, notably newfs, which normally tries to interpret the last letter of a vinum volume name as a partition identifier. If you use a volume name which does not end in the letters a to c, you must use the -v flag to newfs in order to tell it to ignore this con- vention. > - The default location for the vinum logfile > (vinum(8), section "LOG FILE") seems to be > /var/log/vinum_history, not /var/tmp/... . The > logfile should also be mentioned in vinum(8), > section FILES. Oops, Greg, this is confused a bit in my docs too. In "LOG FILE" on vinum(8), LOG FILE vinum maintains a log file, by default /var/tmp/vinum_history, in which it keeps track of the commands issued to vinum. You can override the name of this file by setting the environment variable VINUM_HISTORY to the name of the file. But then farther down, ENVIRONMENT VINUM_HISTORY The name of the log file, by default /var/log/vinum_histo- ry. -- Crist J.

Thanks FreeBSD can not simply cache directory operations in RAM without the possibilty of severe data loss in the event of a crash without softupdates. So either: 1) read /usr/src/sys/ufs/ffs/README.softupdates and enable softupdates -or- 2) mount your filesystems 'async' which can cause serious problems if you happen to crash while it's 'async' option 1 is a better idea. :) you may also want to try this setting: sysctl -w vfs.vmiodirenable=1 But that will really only help if you've set softupdates or async. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

The SMB protocol behavior seems to be unpredictable and only experimentation can help. Start from setting "write raw = no" in the smb.conf. Read /usr/local/share/doc/samba/textdocs/Speed.txt for some more tips. To make sure only Samba writes at low speed try writing a file using FTP.

Bellow is a little info from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/proc.txt, I have not try say that FreeBSD need /proc like this, but, FreeBSD need documentation like this: 3 Reading and modifying kernel parameters A very interesting part of /proc is the directory /proc/sys. This not only provides information, it also allows you to change parameters within the kernel. Be very careful when trying this. You can optimize .... 3.2 /proc/fs - File system data This subdirectory contains specific file system, file handle, inode, dentry and quota information. Currently, these files are in /proc/sys/fs: dentry-state Status of the directory cache. Since directory entries are dynamically allocated and deallocated, this file gives information about the current status. It holds six values, in which the last two are not used and are always zero. The other four mean: nr_dentry Seems to be zero all the time nr_unused Number of unused cache entries age_limit Age in seconds after the entry may be reclaimed, when memory is short want_pages internal ... and so on With FreeBSD "man 8 sysctl" gives kern.maxvnodes integer yes kern.maxproc integer no kern.maxprocperuid integer yes kern.maxfiles integer yes etc. By contrast most of FreeBSD documentation is better than GNU/Linux equivalents. But Linux, kernel :-), part of documentation is better on GNU/Linux, at least it is more searchable. -- Igor Roboul, Unix System Administrator & Programmer @ sanatorium "Raduga", Sochi, Russia http://www.brainbench.com/transcript.jsp?pid=304744 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 11 6:19:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web4305.mail.yahoo.com (web4305.mail.yahoo.com [216.115.104.197]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 643DE37B479 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 06:19:50 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <20001111141950.20993.qmail@web4305.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [209.198.248.38] by web4305.mail.yahoo.com; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 06:19:50 PST Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 06:19:50 -0800 (PST) From: Babe Babes Subject: ppp-2.3.11 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Who knows how to install ppp-2.3.11 on FreeBsd 3.3 and where I can download from. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I have installed FreeBSD 4.1 from CD onto an IDE hard disk (there's a Win2k and an UnixWare 7 on there, too, but I don't think that that's the problem). Since there's loads of space to waste on that disk, I thought it was a good idea to have a separate slice for /, /var, /tmp, /home, /usr, /usr/local, /usr/src, /usr/X11 (which I was to symlink to whichever version I run) and so on. What I did not think of beforehand is that I seemingly ran out of device nodes for /dev/ad..., so /stand/sysinstall put /dev/X (yes, a literal 'X') into /dev/fstab which obviously causes problems. I commented out the appropriate lines, I can boot, all seems well, but I'd really like to 'waste' the space that's still there for /usr/X11 and /usr/src, since I set it up like that... Now, here comes the question: Is there a way to get around that (Well, obviously, I could make /usr one big slice, but besides that.)? Or, was I to use a simple mknod with the appropriate numbers, whichever these might be...? Or did I slam the hard limit again...?

Check that, and change it if it's the problem. Nothing shows in dmesg regarding IRQ 11 other than ed1. In a different message, I inquired about a command or port that would scan the system and show what IRQs are in use. Besides dmesg, someone (Otter) suggested "vmstat -i". I don't see any IRQ 11 in the output: 108 Blacksheep# vmstat -i interrupt total rate fdc0 irq6 2 0 ata0 irq14 58762 0 ata1 irq15 36132 0 sio0 irq4 5606 0 sio1 irq3 2 0 ppc0 irq7 5 0 ed0 irq9 8109 0 clk irq0 7429021 99 rtc irq8 9509463 127 Total 17047102 229 > > Then thinking that "at isa?" means "probe and see what you > find", I removed > > everything after "at isa?" and recompiled again.

So if I understand the other part of your message properly, ed0 worked only because it is defined in the kernel.conf file?

That someone would be the installation program. :) I didn't know ANYTHING about Unix or FreeBSD before I installed this system in September. But I'm learning... Thanks for all of your help!!! So you think that the ultimate problem is an IRQ conflict? If I remove ed1 NIC, is there some way to scan the system and see what is available? Is vmstat -i a good option?

Good eyes! As I said in step 5, based on someone else's thought that both using d8000 was a problem, I edited my kernel config file and recompiled. But because I wrote my plea for help after I completed all of the steps I described, dmesg output was not current for that step and I missed editing it. So in other words, it didn't change from d8000 to d0000. I chose d0000 as I assume this has something to do with address space like what you see in your BIOS setting for shadow availability. And as I recall, the space either started with 0000 or 8000. It was just a try. > This could be the cause of: > > > ed1: device timeout > > > > What is "config>" and should there be something there for ed1 > as well? Is > > this my problem?

No magic here. As I said above, it's because I told it to in step 5. Sorry for the confusion as I missed editing the output to reflect what was really reported. Thank you for taking the time to look this over. If you have any other ideas or suggestions, I'd be willing to try them.

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 Well I hope that subject was provocative enough to generate some interest! :-) Here's a strange situation that's bugging me. I recently changed jobs, into a dept that's heavily Linux-based. I of course have different preferences, but need to demonstrate technical superiority if any changes are going to happen. An opportunity just arose to make some comparisons between Linux and FreeBSD in maximum process size. We have some new systems with 4 GB RAM each that will be made available for running large batch jobs. We have a very simple test program that malloc's successively larger and larger blocks of memory until it fails, freeing the current blocks after each successful trial. The strange thing is that the test program runs much farther on FreeBSD using the Linux binary in compatibility mode than it does using the binary compiled on FreeBSD! Included below are the output from each binary and the source. Can anyone explain these results? A second question, which is the primary issue we were trying to discover is if it is possible for a single process to malloc more than 2 GB of memory. FreeBSD supposedly supports up to 4 GB (on Intel hardware), but does anyone know if there is still a 2 GB per process limit? And if a single process can be larger than 2 GB, is there a 2 GB limit on any single malloc with that process? For comparison purposes, the Linux answers to these questions are that with a special "bigmem" patch installed, a process can be larger than 2 GB, but any single malloc is still limited to 2 GB.

I have a problem with XFree and some diskless stations. Both servers are running FreeBSD 4.2-BETA in conjunction with XFree86-4.0.1, the diskless X11 stations are running also FreeBSD 4.2-BETA and XFree86 4.0.1_3 as got from the ports collection. Only one machine is running FreeBSD 4.2-BETA in conjunction with XFree86 3.3.6 due an very old graphics accelerator card from Hercules, which is not supported by XFree86 4. Well, the phenomenon is the following. I set up a server running xdm and offering chooser for a connecting terminal. This works well, I see all system offering displays I want to be get connections to. When trying to connect to one of the offered terminals the display on the client does a kind of reset as I clicked on restart and chooser is reinitializing. On both machines running FreeBSD 4.2 and XFree 4 I obtain the same phenomenon. On the machine offering XFree 3.3.6 chooser I do not have any kind of trouble. I can select a host from the list and get a display immediately. And curious is: I can obtain displays from those hosts which did not offer me a display prior when selecting them from a XFree 4 chooser ... :-( Any host mentioned above running XFree 4 offers me without problems a display when doing a direct query, but not when doing an indirect query. So it seems not to be a problem of firewalling or anything else, it seems to be some kind of weirdness of xdm. I thought it could be some kind of authetication trouble, but why can I obtain a display by direct querying when it is really a problem in authentication? Please help ... Oliver - MfG O.

When we upgraded to FreeBSD 4.0 the scanning software started failing every two hours (yes it was poorly written software). We thought we had misconfigured the new drive but then downgraded it to 3.4 and everything works fine again. I am assuming that this has something to do with the difference between FreeBSD 3.4 and 4.0's TCP stack. Hope this helps out someone who might run into the same problem. I am doubting it is possible to keep the TCP of 3.4 while running 4.0 so this seems to be the only solution to the problem. Very strange. Hope this helps someone out.

There was a single bug report over a year ago that has never to my knowledge resurfaced. I use it on all of my machines when I remeber to turn it on. What it does it allow the kernel to use the pagecache rather than malloc to store directory blocks, on machines with more than 64 megs of a RAM it's a big win although it wastes signifigant amounts of memory per directory cached. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

If you want to get around the limitation of having eight (8) partitions, seven usable, within a slice, there is no (reasonable) way to get around it. I am not exactly sure why you would want to use so many filesytems. As you seem to realize, it is a good way to waste space but there is little advantage to breaking things up like that if everything is on one physical disk. -- Crist J.

After reading the 'UPRADE.TXT' I created the floppy images kern.flp and mfsroot.flp. Booting from them, taking the upgrade option in /stand/sysinstall and setting the filesystems with no 'newfs flag'. But that's all. I could not backup my /etc, no /usr/tmp/etc could be found. Other filesystems, same result. Problems with finding the cd-rom drive, .... I don't want to install from scratch because with earlier upgrades I had always problems. I've made a backup and did new installations. But this time I want for the first time a real upgrade. Could anyone give me some hints what best to do without destroying my 3.4-RELEASE? Is it possible to upgrade only /stand/sysinstall and proceed in another way or what is the best method? How could I use sysinstall? I've found nothing on the site, only people having the same problems but no answers. And always the hint to choose the sysinstall version from the release I want to have. Any help is welcome.

But I started to get my hopes up when I saw in my dmesg: chip2: port 0xe400-0xe403,0xe000-0xe003,0xdc00-0xdcff irq 9 at device 7.5 on pci0 I built a kernel with device pcm, but the dmesg stays the same as it was before, as above. ie, no pcm device. I also tried MAKEDEV snd0 which gave no errors. Is there something I'm missing? And is there a good way to test if sound is working? Or am I just out of luck with this card? Or is there support for this sound chipset being produced? Help would be much appreciated.

There are no BIOS options for keyboard support. If you're having problems, please submit more details of your hardware, and whether you have run FreeBSD or other Open Source operating systems on it before. FWIW, I recently had a problem with a recent SGI keyboard on an SGI machine; I replaced the keyboard with a Compaq keyboard (which is what I happened to have at hand), and it worked fine. You might like to try a similar experiment. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients. If you don't, I may ignore the reply.

Receiving Incoming Calls > When you configure ppp to receive incoming calls on a machine connected to a LAN, you must decide if you wish to forward packets to the LAN. If you do, you should allocate the peer an IP number from your LAN's subnet, and use the command enable proxy in your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file. You should also confirm that the /etc/rc.conf file contains the following: > > gateway="YES" > By itself, ppp implements a tcp/ip connection between computers. Assume one FreeBSD box at work and another at home. The home box dials the work box and establishes a ppp connection for telnet, ftp, etc. When the home box initiates ppp on the work box the work box assigns it an IP address. If the work box is connected to a LAN, and you want to access resources on the LAN, you should reserve a block of IP address assigned to that LAN for use by ppp. The work box is a gateway in that the home box is not connected directly to the LAN, If you don't tell the work box to be a gateway it won't forward the packetes.

This is stating the obvious. The real issue is, why does the system panic? That shouldn't happen. Of course, I can do this myself, as soon as I get access to an audio CD. But if you want the problem solved, please enter a problem report and somebody should look at it. On a more general note, if your system panics, this is a bug.

So far, cfs has worked very well. I have created a new user account for myself and made the virtual directory with all of the dot files and "rc" files for this new account. What I am having trouble figuring out is how to automate the process, so when I log in, after I enter my login password, I then give my password for the cfs virtual home directory, and I am automatically in the virtual directory. I wrote a simple shell script and call it at the end of /etc/profile. If $LOGNAME is equal to my new user account, it calls "cattach" and afterwards tries to set $HOME to the virtual directory. Unfortunately, I alway end up with / as my home directory, since bash can't find the virtual directory until cattach is called, and since exporting a new $HOME doesn't seem to work. I wonder if there is any simple way to assign a new home directory at the end of the login process, but after "profile" is executed? I will keep looking through my O'Reilly bash and csh books. If I can figure all this out I am going to write it up into a HowTo. Seems like a nice system for securing the data in a laptop. Rob.

Perhaps try providing more information (ie: exact and detailed error messages and situations).

You've left out several important details, namely what version of freebsd you're using and what kind of, if any kernel tuning you've done. If you haven't already, read through LINT/NOTES to learn about some of the options available. In particulary I'm guessing you will need to take advantage of MAXDSIZ and possibly DFLDSIZE. You may also want to play around with some of the other VM options, but a lot of that stuff is really poorly documented. If you can contribute hard data regarding performance with any of those options (or combinations) enabled, I'm sure it will be well appreciated. Good luck, Doug -- Life is an essay test. Long form.

First, FreeBSD terminology. The things that DOS users call partitions (4 to a disk, unless you have logical ones inside another one) are called "slices". The things you can mount file systems on are called "partitions". Since FreeBSD can't put a file system on a logical slice, I assume you mean partitions, not slices. Now - why did you think having lots of partitions is a good idea? That the sizes of all the above match your backup media is about the only reason I can think of for doing that. > What I did not think of beforehand is that I seemingly ran out of > device nodes for /dev/ad..., so /stand/sysinstall put /dev/X (yes, a > literal 'X') into /dev/fstab which obviously causes problems. What you actually ran out of was partitions - you only have 8 usable partitions per slice. So your 8 file systems and swap is to many. I'd be interested to know the 9 device names you used for this. Mangling /etc/fstab (that is what you meant, right?) sounds like a bug - probably from walking past the end of an array somewhere. Care to try recreating it? > Now, here comes the question: Is there a way to get around that (Well, > obviously, I could make /usr one big slice, but besides that.)? Or, was I to > use a simple mknod with the appropriate numbers, whichever these might be...? > Or did I slam the hard limit again...? Yes, you ran into a hard limit. There are a couple of workarounds, though. You could put /tmp on a memory file system. That saves you one file system, so it fits. If you've got a spare slice, you can divide your FreeBSD slice into two slices, and then put partitions in both slices. With 8 partitions per slice, that gives you 16 partitions. They'll be called /dev/ad0s#?, where # is the slice number (1, 2, 3 or 4), and ? is the partition letter (a-h), so it would be, for instance /dev/ad0s2a for root, and /dev/ad0s3d for /home. ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 14:44:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from dragon.ccmr.cornell.edu (IDENT:0@dragon.ccmr.cornell.edu [128.84.231.182]) by mercury.ccmr.cornell.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA12671; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:43:58 -0500 Received: from localhost (mitch@localhost) by dragon.ccmr.cornell.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA17221; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:43:56 -0500 X-Authentication-Warning: dragon.ccmr.cornell.edu: mitch owned process doing -bs Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:43:56 -0500 (EST) From: Mitch Collinsworth To: Michael Joyner Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Linux malloc better on FreeBSD than FreeBSD malloc?

The answers are correct though and have been proven with the same test program below. We've been able to run up to about 3.5 GB total in a single process on Linux, though still limited to a single malloc being no larger than 2 GB.

Again, it does have a 2 GB per malloc limitation, which I'm looking to find a way around. It's possible the alpha is the only solution for this but I want to be absolutely sure. Regarding performance, again I need a reference.

Well this seems to make a significant difference. Using libdlmalloc and still not having done any kernel tuning, I'm now getting the same results from the FreeBSD binary as the Linux binary. Ok, that at least solves the first question. Now I'll move on to tuning. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 11 16:48:26 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wolf.dyns.cx (dws40-46.jacksonville.net [24.129.40.46]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9C22D37B479 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 16:48:20 -0800 (PST) Received: from wolf.dyns.cx (ip100.internal [192.168.255.100]) by wolf.dyns.cx (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA07548; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 19:48:17 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from wolfieee@wolf.dyns.cx) Message-ID: <3A0DE8C5.63F542E9@wolf.dyns.cx> Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 19:48:05 -0500 From: Michael Joyner X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.74 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Mitch Collinsworth Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Linux malloc better on FreeBSD than FreeBSD malloc?

The main difference in 3.1 (if I reall this correctly) is that sendmail.cf and aliases are in /etc and not /etc/mail. But this also depends on which version of sendmail you're running, because it changed in 8.10.x I think.

Sendmail after 8.9.3 is set up to deny relaying by default, and you have to explicitly allow which IP's or domains will be relayed in /etc/mail/access. For more information on the syntax of access try reading /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README, but a small example looks like: % cat /etc/mail/access bug.gr RELAY labs.gr RELAY hotmail.com REJECT You get the idea, I think :-) After you edit /etc/mail/access properly do not forget to makemap it: # cd /etc/mail # makemap hash access < access Ciao. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 11 17:54:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web10404.mail.yahoo.com (web10404.mail.yahoo.com [216.136.130.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 93FD537B479 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:54:30 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <20001112015430.63241.qmail@web10404.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [24.130.210.28] by web10404.mail.yahoo.com; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:54:30 PST Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 17:54:30 -0800 (PST) From: Joey Garcia Subject: Trying to locat nexus font for X Windows To: questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there! I had found an .Xdefaults file over at x.themes.ort which uses the nexus font, but I couldn't seem to find it on their site. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can find this font. Seems that alot of the .Xdefaults files there use this font so now I'm curious to how it looks. While on the subject of .Xdefaults, where can I get more information on customizing X Windows using .Xdefaults files. I mean, where can I get information regarding what goes into that file to customize my applications. TIA, Joey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Well, I mentioned some ideas above. Did you try them? Given that the problem seems to be related to keyboards, you could have described the keyboard in a little more detail.

When building world/installing world, or X, or some other large program, my kernel panic's and I get a system reset with the description, Giving up on 1 buffers. The disk is an ATA66 WDC 15 GB drive, the IDE cabling is ATA66 compliant, and I have run the disk check utility that came with the drive, and wrote zero's to the drive, and have found no problems with the disk. I am at a loss as to how this could be happening. This is all using the GENERIC kernel, if the build/install goes well, I can generally get a -STABLE system going and not produce these errors at all. I believe this is problem is caused by SOFTUPDATES, which I disabled in my kernel setup after having this problem a few times. I am loosing my mind with this, as it is extremely irritating and forces me to use Windows for longer than I would like. As far as I can recall, when I did run Linux I never had this problem. Any responses or suggestions would be happily received. Please email them to this account, as I am not subscribed to the mailing lists at this time.

Go up 5 or 6 lines. The buffer message is printed after trying to sync the filesystems. The panic message is above that, and usually starts with the word "Panic".

That looks like your terminal's "status" character is set to ^J instead of ^T like it should be. What does the "cchars" part of the "stty -a" command print? If it says "status = ^J", you can reset it with "stty sane".

The FreeBSD Manual on one hand explains that it is better having separate filesystems for /var, /tmp etc. But on the other hand there seems to be severe restriction on partitions available in the one FreeBSD slice on my harddisk. (The manual also claims that disklabel prefers the 'e' partition for non-root filesystems. There seems to be a basic assumption here that everything non-root goes into a single partition, or that additional physical disks (or slices) are available). I want to create: / (ro) /usr (ro) /var /home /tmp /usr/local swap /u0 and potentially more. However, disk partitions only seem to go up to ad0s1h. When I use the disklabel editor, it lets me devine additional partitions, but names the devive /dev/dsk/X? Later mount complains that that does not exist. And no, I do not want to scarifice another slice (BIOS partition) as I need that for Linux. Any help on this is appreciated.

The preference for 'e' is for historical reasons ('a' is for a root file system, 'b' for swap, 'c' for the whole disk, 'd' used to be special, as I believe it still is in NetBSD), so the first partition you could use is 'e'.

I'd be interested in why. All this does is give you the opportunity to fill up one file system while having plenty of space in the others. Symlinks are a workaround when you get to this situation, but not a solution. In your particular case, I can see a case for: / (ro, including /usr) /tmp (mfs) /home, including /usr/local, /var and /u0 swap That's three partitions. If you want to address directories like /u0, you can make them symlinks. > However, disk partitions only seem to go up to ad0s1h.

Perhaps find a FreeBSD person locally who can assist you. Look for FreeBSD user's group meetings close to where you live, if you're lucky enough to live close to a FreeBSD user's group. You'd want to run named (bind) to serve DNS, sendmail or other mailer to handle outgoing mail, POP and IMAP to serve user mail, radius, maybe, to authenticate dialup users, a server to host shell accounts, apache to serve out virtual domains, a firewall, and other things as you need them or users request them. The three main publishers-of-record for Unix stuff are O'Reilly WROX New Riders and there are books about DNS, Apache, Sendmail and firewalls. Only some of the stuff (e.g. radius) is 'arcane'. It should take you a few hours to get it all working (including routers and other equipment) if you know what you're doing. Good Luck and Have Fun.

In your particular case, I can see a case for: I like partitioning off this data to prevent eating others' (other users', applications' etc) space. If I use symlinks this happens more easily. Yes, it's a tradeoff between optimal use of available space and some protection between different users, groups, applications etc. eg: On a mailserver /var/spool/mqueue is its own partition (or better volume if a volume manager is available) to avoid filling up /var with mails so that the log-messages in /var/log cannot even be written out ! >=20 > / (ro, including /usr) > /tmp (mfs) > /home, including /usr/local, /var and /u0 > swap >=20 > That's three partitions.

If you followed the directions and the install hung, that's a clue. If you didn't follow the directions but expected it to install like Linux, that's a clue too. FreeBSD is just about the easiest system to install. The only other OS that is so clean is Red Hat, with bazillions of dollars of support personnel to program a user-friendly interface, and it still took them several releases to get X-Windows right. -ecsd John Galt wrote: > > I highly doubt that you're a "seasoned linux user", otherwise, you'd know > that invariably in open source projects, the questions@ mailing list is > not the place you ask for your money back.

And yes, where you have a special need, this recommendation doesn't apply. My main concern is that people who don't do careful planning (and that's most of us, myself definitely included :-) end up with suboptimal layouts. /var is a particular problem: some people use less than 1 MB on /var, others use several GB.

Well, I think of Linux as something like a hermit crab, living in other operating systems' partitions. With Vinum you could have several thousand.

How should we do it? You don't have to worry about this issue, since sysinstall will do it for you if you ask it, but we'll see below why this might not be the best choice. In this section we'll consider how UNIX file systems have changed over the years, and we'll look at the issues in file system layout nowadays. When UNIX was young, disks were tiny. By the time of the Third Edition of UNIX, in 1972, the system disk was a Digital RF-11, a fixed head disk with 512 kB. It was no longer possible to keep the entire system on this disk, so a second file system became essential. It was mounted on a Digital RK03 with 2 MB of storage. To quote from a paper published in the Communications of the ACM in July 1974: In our installation, for example, the root directory resides on the fixed-head disk, and the large disk drive, which contains user's files, is mounted by the system initialization program... As time went on, UNIX got bigger, but so did the disks. By the early 80s, disks were large enough to put / and /usr on the same disk, and it would have been possible to merge / and /usr, but they didn't. Since that time, an additional file system, /var, has come into common use for frequently changed data. This is what sysinstall does by default: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-default.ps 4i ] Figure 6-12: Default disk partition sizes It's relatively simple to estimate the size of the root file system, and sysinstall's value of 50 MB is fine. But what about /var? 20 MB isn't worth the trouble any more. In fact, both file systems put together would be lost in the 19 GB of /usr file system. Why do we still do things this way? Let's look at the advantages and disadvantages: o If you write to a file system, a system crash can have serious consequences for the data integrity of that file system. o If you have a crash and lose the root file system, recovery can be difficult. o If a file system fills up, it can cause lots of trouble. Most messages about file systems on the FreeBSD-questions mailing list are complaining about file systems filling up. If you have a large number of small file systems, the chances are higher that one will fill up while space remains on another. o In single-user mode, only the root file system is mounted. With the classical layout, this means that the only programs you can run are those in /bin and /sbin. In order to run any other programs, you must first mount the file system on which they are located. o It's nice to keep your personal files separate from the system files. That way you can upgrade a system much more easily. o It's very difficult to calculate the sizes of some file systems. For example, on some systems /var can be very small, maybe only 2 or 3 MB. It's hardly worth making a separate file system for that much data. On the other hand, other systems, such as ftp or web servers, may have a /var system of 50 or 100 GB. How do you choose the correct size for your system? o When doing backups, it's a good idea to be able to get a file system on a single tape. In the early days of UNIX, system crashes were relatively common, and the damage they did to the file systems was relatively serious. Times have changed, and nowadays file system damage is relatively seldom, particularly on file systems that have little activity. On the other hand, disk drives have grown beyond most peoples' wildest expectations. The first edition of this book, only five years ago, showed how to install on a 200 MB drive. The smallest disk drives in current production are 10 GB in size, more than will fit on many tapes. As a result of these considerations, I have changed my recommendations. In earlier editions of this book, I recommended to put a small root file system and a /usr file system on the first (or only) disk on the system. /var was to be a symbolic link to /usr/var. This is still a valid layout, but it has a couple of problems: o In the example we're looking at, /usr is about 19 GB in size. Not many people have backup devices which can write this much data on a single medium. o Many people had difficulty with the symbolic link to /usr/var. As a result, I now recommend: o Make a single root file system of between 2 and 4 GB. o Do not have separate /usr or /var file systems. o Use the rest of the space on disk for a /home file system, as long as it's possible to back it up on a single tape. Otherwise make multiple file systems. /home is the normal directory for user files. This layout allows for easy backup of the file systems, and it also allows for easy upgrading to a new system version: you just need to replace the root file system. It's not perfect, though: on a web server you probably wouldn't want to put /var on the root file system. How much swap space? ____________________ Apart from files, you should also have at least one swap partition on your disk. It's very difficult to predict how much swap space you need. The automatic option gave us 522 MB, slightly more than twice the size of physical memory. Maybe you can get by with 64 MB. Maybe you'll need 2 GB. How do you decide? It's almost impossible to know in advance what your system will require. Here are some considerations: o Swap space is needed for all pages of virtual memory which contain data that is not locked in memory and which can't be recreated automatically. This is the majority of virtual memory in the system. o Some people use rules of thumb like ``2.5 times the size of physical memory, or 64 MB, whichever is bigger''. These rules work only by making assumptions about your workload. If you're using more than 2.5 times as much swap space as physical memory, performance will suffer. o Known memory hogs are X11 and integrated graphical programs such as NetScape and StarOffice. If you use these, you will probably need more swap space. Older UNIX-based hogs such as Emacs and the GNU C compiler (gcc) are not in the same league. o You can add additional swap partitions on other disks. This has the additional advantage of balancing the disk load if your machine swaps a lot. o About the only ways to change the size of a swap partition are to add another partition or to reinstall the system, so if you're not sure, a little bit more won't do any harm, but too little can really be a problem. o If your system panics, and memory dumping is enabled, it will write the contents of memory to the swap partition. This will obviously not work if your swap partition is smaller than main memory. Under these circumstances, the system refuses to dump, but it's not impossible that a bug might cause the dump to write beyond the bounds of the swap partition, probably causing irreperable damage to your /usr partition. o Even with light memory loads, the virtual memory system slowly pages out data in preparation for a possible sudden demand for memory. This means that it can be more responsive to such requests. As a result, you should have at least as much swap as memory. A couple of examples might make this clearer: 1. I used to run X, StarOffice, Netscape and a whole lot of other memory-hungry applications on an old 486 with 16 MB. Sure, it's really slow, especially when changing from one application to another, but it works. Since there's not much memory, it uses a lot of swap. To view the current swap usage, use pstat. Here's a typical view of this machine's swap space: $ pstat -s Device 1024-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/da0s1b 122880 65148 57668 53% Interleaved 2. I now run much more stuff on an AMD Athlon with 256 MB of memory. I've got lots of swap space, but what I see is: $ pstat -s Device 1024-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/ad0s1b 524020 22328 501692 4% Interleaved It's not so important that the Athlon is using less swap: it's using 9% of its memory in swap, whereas the 486 is using 4 times its memory. In a previous edition of this book, I had the example of a Pentium with 96 MB of memory, which used 43 MB of swap. Look at it from a different point, and it makes more sense: swap makes up for the lack of real memory, so the 486 is using a total of 80 MB of memory, the Pentium is using 140 MB, and the Athlon is using 280 MB. In other words, there is a tendency to be able to say ``the more main memory you have, the less swap you need''. If, however, you look at it from the point of view of acceptable performance, you will hear things like ``you need at least one-third of your virtual memory in real memory''. That makes sense from a performance point of view, assuming all processes are relatively active. And, of course, it's another way of saying ``take twice as much swap as real memory''. In summary: be generous in allocating swap space. In this example, we have a tiny disk, so we're forced to use a small swap partition. If you have the choice, use more. If you really can't make up your mind, take 512 MB of swap space. For the file systems, the column Mount now shows the mount points, and Newfs contains the letters UFS for UNIX File System, and the letter Y, indicating that we need to create a new file system before we can use it. At this point, we have two choices: decide for ourselves what we want, or let the disk label editor do it for us. Let's look at both ways: Creating the file systems _________________________ With these considerations in mind, we'll divide up the disk in the following manner: o 4 GB for the root file system, which includes /usr and /var. o 512 MB swap space. o The rest of the disk for the /home file system. To create a file system, we press c. We get a prompt window asking for the size of the file system, and offering the entire space. We enter the size of the root file system: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-1.ps 4i ] When we press ENTER, we see another prompt asking for the kind of partition. We select A File System: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-2.ps 4i ] When we press ENTER, we see another prompt asking for the mount point for the file system. We enter / for the root file system, after which the display looks like: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-3.ps 4i ] After we press ENTER again, the display shows: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-4.ps 4i ] Next, we repeat the operation for the swap partition and the /home file system, entering the appropriate values each time. We don't change the value offered for the length of /home: we just use all the remaining space. At the end we have: [Omitting PostScript image images/disk-label-5.ps 4i ] --9jxsPFA5p3P2qPhR-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 11 23:36:47 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wantadilla.lemis.com (wantadilla.lemis.com [192.109.197.80]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8B4C937B479 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 2000 23:36:23 -0800 (PST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by wantadilla.lemis.com (8.11.0/8.9.3) id eAC7Yxq03022; Sun, 12 Nov 2000 18:04:59 +1030 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Date: Sun, 12 Nov 2000 18:04:59 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Mathias_K=F6rber?= Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: More partitions on a single slice?

They've been there forever. I can't remember a UNIX which really gives significantly more than 7 file system partitions. System V has a total of 15, but most of them are special purpose.
