[Disclaimer: I work for Adobe Systems. I have nothing to do with the
Flash Player. I'm a grunt who works on other stuff. This is my personal
opinion as a long-time FreeBSD user and I'm not making any statements
for Adobe.]

I'm afraid that's the age-old question of demand. If there was enough
demand out there, I'm sure that any software manufacturer would consider
FreeBSD a platform that needs to be supported.=20
Providing support for the Flash Player on FreeBSD is not a one-shot
thing. You don't have some summer intern create a port of the current
version of the player, release it and then be done with it. If a
platform is officially supported it means dedication of a lot of
resources: engineering and especially testing. Once a platform is
adopted it needs to be rev'ed whenever the other platforms are updated,
otherwise you end up again in a situation where a certain application
that requires new Flash Player features does not work for you. This all
means time and money. Adobe as any other public company has to justify
its actions to its shareholders. If anybody scrutinizes the books and
sees a substantial amount of engineering and QA resources being
dedicated to a platform that has very little desktop market penetration
and because of that some other important high-reach features were
dropped, I'm sure that public company would have to answer some
questions about it.=20

Since the last discussion I actually contacted the Flash Player team and
asked what it would take to get an official port for Flash Player on
FreeBSD. I was asked to provide numbers that would indicate how many
*desktop* FreeBSD systems are out there and how many of them are used on
a *regular* basis. So, if anybody on this list can provide those
answers, I'd be more than happy to do my part and relay the answers back
to those people who can actually influence decisions in this area.
Again, I'm not speaking for Adobe, I'm just offering to help as much as
I can as a happy FreeBSD user (well, if it wasn't for
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D123735 on 8.0-CURRENT).=20

That's simply wrong. The Flash format byte-code is *not* proprietary. If
you want to, you can go ahead and create your own Flash Player. The
specifications for the format are freely available at:
http://www.adobe.com/openscreenproject/developers/

And Gnash (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/), which was started before
the spec was available, will certainly benefit from this.=20

And to address a previous message: if your bank requires you to use the
Flash Player to make a transaction, then you will need to get in touch
with your bank and not blame it on the non-existence of the Flash Player
on your platform. A disabled person with a text-only browser or a
screen-reader will certainly have the same issues.=20

My offer stands: if anybody can provide the numbers above, I'm going to
forward them to the right people and work things from my end.=20

Don't beat me up, I'm for the support - even if I'm not using FreeBSD as
a desktop OS.=20

Thanks and happy weekend - Tobias

OK.   So get busy anc contribute a flash9 plugin that works in FreeBSD.
See if you can get the necessary information out of Adobe.

Yeah I understand where you are going with that, but at the same time every 
interface is flash, java, or silverlight. Fortunately my current banking 
choice greendot doesnt use flash, but there are alot of web apps that require 
it to work and require using the latest version. There is where we need 
flash. We need these companies to realise that if majority of the websites on 
the planet use it, then they need to support every operating system with the 
means of accessing  the web via a current maintained gui browser. Java, 
Flash, Silverlight and all applications that are used heavily in todays 
websites need to be made standardly ready and available to Windows, 
Macintosh, Unix(including linux and freebsd and all 'nix os)

I do not want to have to use wine to get to a important secure login for a 
bank or similar site when I am running something better then windows

FreeBSD is my one and only desktop, I run a small business and do not tend to 
like to switch back and forth from os's mainly cause i use sql-ledger and it 
is my main server to keep up with my bookkeeping. My wifes pc was using 
pc-bsd but lack of flash made her goto kubuntu

Well, if you consider PC-BSD as FreeBSD -- which it is for
programmatic purposes, then at least 15,000 users are prepared
to voluntarily self-report themselves as such.  PC-BSD by it's
nature implies desktop usage.

Note that PC-BSD invites users to register with BSD Stats at install
time.  Other BSD variants require the user to have heard about and then
gone and installed the reporting software, so the uptake is a lower
proportion of the user base.

Regular usage is a hard one.  BSD stats requires a monthly report
from each server, so the figures they have don't include any significant
amount of historical cruft.  Reports are also generated when the
system reboots, but as far as I know, the BSD Stats project hasn't
analysed its data to extract any information about how often people
reboot their systems.

Well, if you consider PC-BSD as FreeBSD -- which it is for
programmatic purposes, then at least 15,000 users are prepared
to voluntarily self-report themselves as such.  PC-BSD by it's
nature implies desktop usage.

Note that PC-BSD invites users to register with BSD Stats at install
time.  Other BSD variants require the user to have heard about and then
gone and installed the reporting software, so the uptake is a lower
proportion of the user base.

Regular usage is a hard one.  BSD stats requires a monthly report
from each server, so the figures they have don't include any significant
amount of historical cruft.  Reports are also generated when the
system reboots, but as far as I know, the BSD Stats project hasn't
analysed its data to extract any information about how often people
reboot their systems.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Well...

Here I am in a project of notebooks for schools
machines with 13" 120gb  of disk turion 64...
All of them running FreeBSD 7.0  it is about 7000 notebooks
in the first year... 

With a total of 35000 notebooks in 3 years... and counting...
may be a total of 100,000 notebooks in 5 years...

Because of special taxes applied in the notebooks,
the user must use FreeBSD or Linux.  If the user formats
the computer and install other non open source OS,
the user must pay the taxes difference to the project...
a value of about US$200. and will not be able to access
the university data. 

Well.. about the flashplugin...  it is a problem... for sure...
they work with flashplugin 7....

The wireless is a problem too, for that we choose intel or atheros
chip...

Tell the flashplugin team about... please

Sergio

Adobe,
There are some numbers,
7,000 now and 30,000 in 3 yrs from one school
14,692 pcbsd
6,320 reported freebsd
about almost 30,000 bsd desktops reported, im sure there are alot of people 
who do not report their stats,  but id imagine we got alot more then 30,000 
bsd desktop users. Theyd probably use an intern to do most of the work, and 
we all know interns are unpaid, they earn knowledge and experience. Throw 
their butts on coding a BSD Flashplayer version. I am sure if you throw in a 
few pizzas everyday, some trashy sluts, and a lot of caffiene they could work 
them around the clock and have something working in a couple months. Motivate 
them with food, girls and hope :)

Sincerely,
Derek A. Graham

Oh, this explains why I never has issues with time.
I always have kern.hz="100" in loader.conf and I run ntpdate on startup.
Sorry if I mislead others.

I don't know to what extent this might come in handy .. but in case anyone 
wants to pick up that gauntlet, you can find quite a lot to start with in

Hi all

What consists FreeBSD Libc (/lib/libc.so.7)? Is it only /usr/src/lib/libc/* ?

I have compiled /usr/src/lib/libc/*, the resulting libc.so.7 is about 65,000 bytes smaller.

Kind regards
Unga

for what it is worth, between 3 companies that I do consulting for, there
are about 250 workstations that currently use, Windows ME, or Windows
2000.Flash and Microsoft Outlook remain the only 2 reasons we can not use
PC-BSD. Wine is making some GREAT Progress, and very shortly if not already,
Outlook will run in wine, and the lack of a current flash player will remain
the only thing standing in the way of 250 more PC-BSD stations.

Thanks, tried this but same error.

hulk# ifconfig nfe0 10.202.77.110 media 1000baseTX
ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA (media): Device not configured

hulk$ man nfe
The nfe driver supports the following media types:

     autoselect   Enable autoselection of the media type and options.

     10baseT/UTP  Set 10Mbps operation.

     100baseTX    Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.

     1000baseT    Set 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) operation (recent models
                  only).

     The nfe driver supports the following media options:

     half-duplex  Force half duplex operation.

     full-duplex  Force full duplex operation.

Also for some strange reason I lost a couple of ip aliases and my default
route whilst trying to change the media and mediaopt.

I start to wonder if the combination 1000baseT and half duplex is
possible. However setting the NIC manually to 1000baseT doesnt work
either. IF set to autoselect it does negotiate to 1000baseT as I can see
on the switch.

Thanks

That's the job of the scheduler.  If you are running -current there is 
the cpuset utility that allows you to bind processes to subsets of CPUs.

If you try to force the NIC to use full-/half-duplex, then you will need to
force the other end of the connection (i.e. the switch) to the same setting
(most cheap switches do not provide any way of forcing this.)
Having one end set to auto-negotiation, while the other is forced to a
specific setting will usually not work very well.

(IIRC a switch or NIC that is set to auto-negotiate, but where the
negotiation fails (possibly because the other end is not set to
auto-negotiate) will usually revert to 10Mbps/half-duplex, i.e. the
original, slowest, Ethernet speed.)

100Mb half-duplex is the default setting in this sort of mismatch.  It
will 'sort of' work, but you'll find performance is terrible and there
will be significant amounts of packet loss.

Note too that 1Gb speeds require both sides to be set to autonegotiate
-- it's part of the standard for supporting those speeds, so that in
the event of transmission difficulties the connection can be gracefully
degraded rather than just ceasing to work at all.

There's a lot of received wisdom around that wiring down connection
speeds is a good idea.  That may have been the case 5 or more years ago,
when there were certainly some combinations of NIC / network switch
manufacturer that just wouldn't negotiate correctly, but now that=20
1Gb/s capability is pretty much standard such incompatibilities are
rare.  Nowadays, for best results, auto-negotiate.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Yes.

Than what?  It will change depending on your CFLAGS.

Even if you do have hardware that supports half-duplex gigabit ethernet
on both ends, the need to do carrier extension for any frame shorter
than 512 bytes so that CSMA/CD actually works on a reasonable sized
cable, does horrible things to your throughput if you've got lots of
small frames. (In other words, at gigabit speeds, frames smaller than
512 bytes zip down the wire so quickly that you can no longer reliably
detect collisions, so the frames all get padded.) I'm having trouble 
wrapping my head around any circumstances other than horribly, horribly 
broken hardware or software where half-duplex would increase your 
performance over full-duplex.

That said, most (an imprecise way saying "every time I've looked this
has been the case, but I generally no longer bother looking") gigabit
ethernet hardware I've ever touched has been incapable of doing
half-duplex when it's being used at gigabit speeds.  The specs for doing
it exist more for theoretical completeness than out of practical
utility.  See, for example

http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/resources/doc_library/white_papers/solutions/copper_guide/gig_over_copper.htm

for a discussion on this and related topics.

My suggestion would be to let both sides auto-detect if they're both
capable of gigabit ethernet.

That worked like a charm, but Adobe Reader 8.12 not only crashes the
browser, but also wine and X.  So now I have wine firefox which can handle
Flash 9, but crashes on pdfs and linux-firefox which handles pdfs, but
crashes on Flash.

This seems somehow suboptimal.

at 10Gbit/s specs dropped half-duplex and collision detection at all.

Hi,

does anyone know what is going on here?

this is an external usb 250gb hard disk mounted on /mnt using ntfs-3g. 
The hard disk is less than a year old and not heavily used. I've only 
just started using it as an external drive, it was installed in a 
computer until then.

%mount
/dev/ad4s1a on / (ufs, local)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
/dev/ad4s1e on /tmp (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/ad4s1f on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/ad4s1d on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/fuse1 on /mnt (fusefs, local, synchronous)


%pwd
/mnt/Documents and Settings/Administrator
%ls
Application data        Local Settings          My Documents
%ls ..
Administrator
%ls .
Application data        Local Settings          My Documents
%pwd
/mnt/Documents and Settings/Administrator
%du -sh .
5.2G    .
%pwd
/mnt/Documents and Settings/Administrator
%find . > ~/anyold.textfile
find: .: No such file or directory
%pwd
pwd: .: No such file or directory
%ls
ls: .: No such file or directory


The actions leading up to this are quite random, usually using find and 
du do the trick immediately but not always, and one time just doing pwd 
and ls a couple of times did it. If I cd to /mnt then everything appears 
again.

I did a recent chkdsk in windows on the disk and it did some repairs - 
cross-linked files I think. I have a log of what it found.
Thanks

As Tobias Hoelrich stated:

That's simply wrong. The Flash format byte-code is *not* proprietary. If
you want to, you can go ahead and create your own Flash Player. The
specifications for the format are freely available at:
http://www.adobe.com/openscreenproject/developers/

So, the infromation -is- there.

Sounds like you should also install the BSD Stats utility on those
machines so they will report their existence to the stats.  It would
significantly update the numbers.

Hello list!

I plan to install a web server for production use and ZFS looks very
interesting, especially since it has built-in support for RAID and
checksum.

The hardware is already purchased, a 1U-casis with a PhemonX4 9550
CPU, 4GB ECC RAM @ 800MHz and 2x500GB SATA disks and I am about to
select the operating system to use.

The choice is probably between "Debian 4.0r3", "FreeBSD 7.0" and
"OpenSolaris 2008.05". All of them have their pros and cons.

I think Debian / Linux, almost falls off because it lacks support for
native ZFS and I have not found any alternative filesystem that offer
checksums on the fly.

My main question is: How is the support for ZFS on FreeBSD? Is it
sufficiently stable and fast enough to be used in production yet?
If not, is there any alternative filesystem that offers checksums on
the fly or other similar technology to reduce the risk of a corrupt
filesystem that at the same time plays well with software RAID (RAID-1
in particular)?

Thanks in advance!
Anders

Hi *,

which SATA controller is supported for SATA-DVDRAM (or just any other=20
optical drive)? Promise controllers doesn't seem to work with FreeBSD.

The DVDRAM doesn't work on both Promise-Controllers (onboard and the

Thanks Kris & Wojciech for replies.

Its great to get it confirmed that FreeBSD Libc is only /usr/src/lib/libc/* as I presumed.

I have compiled and installed the FreeBSD Libc into a temp directory. The size of /tmp/libc.so.7 is about 65,000 bytes smaller than /lib/libc.so.7.

The /lib/libc.so.7 is dated May 25, 2008. I did not touch CFLAGS or anything other than DESTDIR. But I really forgot, the gcc version is different. The /lib/libc.so.7 is by gcc 4.2.1, but the /tmp/libc.so.7 is by gcc 4.3.0. May be the code generation of the latest gcc may be better.

I think the size difference may not be an issue as the libc is get it compiled and installed without any error.

The GNU glibc has a "make check", but there is no make check target for FreeBSD libc. How do you guys test it?  Is the /usr/src/tools/regression/ any help for that?

Regards
Unga

Hi!

I usually use the wired network at home, in which everything gets
configured automatically as soon as I attach the cable to my network
card.

However, when using the wireless network, I need to run

 # route add default -iface ipw0

This will give me a route to the gateway (10.0.0.1), and I can ping
the gateway, as well as other machines on our local network. But if
I try to connect to anything outside of 10/24, I get a "no route to
host" error. If I manually add a route, with

 # route add x.y.z.t 10.0.0.1

I can connect to that host. If I change my default route to anything
but "-iface ipw0" I cannot connect to the gateway (10.0.0.1). I
cannot keep adding routes to all hosts I need to connect to.

I've solved the problem for web usage, by running a proxy on another
machine on the local network (that's reachable)


What am I doing wrong?
I don't think I have a thorough understanding of network routes.

Just in case you assume that ZFS on OpenSolaris 2008.05
would be superior to ZFS on FreeBSD, this hasn't been my
experience.

On a system with an Athlon 1700+ and only 512 MB of RAM,
receiving snapshots on OpenSolaris renders the GUI pretty
much useless.

On FreeBSD ZFS operations can cause delays as well, but it's
significantly better than on OpenSolaris, even though FreeBSD's
ZFS pool lies on a geli-encrypted gmirror while OpenSolaris uses
the disk directly.

Note that the system is below Sun's recommended specifications
for ZFS, though. Things may look differently on more powerful
systems.

It probably depends on your workload, you'll find several complaints
in the archives. It works fine for me, but I haven't tried it on web
servers yet. If I were to install a web server today, though,
I'd definitely go with ZFS (on FreeBSD).

You can use geli(8) for checksumming, it can be combined with gmirror
but unless with ZFS, you don't get automatic "self-healing".

Dear All,

I used to use Bitstream Vera Sans Mono in Gnome-terminal, by change
the configure in the menu.
Now I am using aterm, but I also want to use that font.

I can see it by fc-list:

[3:39pm:kemian] ~> fc-list | grep "Sans Mono"
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Bold
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Oblique
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Bold Oblique
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman

I add entry in .Xresources:

Aterm*font:	xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman

But run the aterm give me:

aterm: can't load font "xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman"

Could anyone give me a clue on how to change the font of aterm?

Best wishes,
Kemian

====================================

The idea behind the FreebSD nobebook project is rather simple:

Here in my country a person must (or should) pay a lot of taxes to
the govern...  for every notebook sold, there is about 70% of taxes plus
about 6% month of fincancial costs... so a "small notebook" sells for
about U$1400.  
in this $1400 there are almost $800 of taxes... without count the
financial costs of about 6%/month (at best) .

But not everything is lost...  the govern invest much money in
education,
and health... (I know that a lot of money is lost... but it does not
count, lost is lost)...

For educacional pourposes,  the taxes are very low (about 10%)... so a
good notebook
sells for US800. (final cost)..  the notbook is turion 64 (preferable
not dual core)... 120gb hd
wireless 13"... without operating system.. and bought in chunks of 1000.

Because they will use open source, and the operating system must be
built from  ground zero within the university...
serialized, with a software key code that is able to trace the
machine...
(there is no debian, mandriva, gentoo....,microsoft) no comercial brand
should apply... 
finance with the State bank in 36 months it will cost about US$20/month
with insurance...

The student sign a contract that will take care of the machine and if
tampered (other no open source
OS installed)... all the taxes should be payed  by him... 

The notbooks runs Gnome 2.22 and with wireless in the campus, everybody
can access the multimedia
files stored in the FreBSD servers (about 20T)... Using a modified divx
codec, the media is protected from
being seen or used by non authorized persons (ok I know that the
protection is not hard) but is enough
for dayly used (all media is marked with a water mark (thanks mencoder
team...)).

The Evolution (email client...) is linked with the open exchange server
and ldap... so a person can email and
receive information form the university staff and others using the ldap
servers... 

Telephony is done using Ekiga (low rates apply to PSTN)... and if you
have fast internet connection, the builtin camera can be used
for video on Ekiga... 

Gatekeepers (using gnugk) links directly to the PSTN, ekiga talks h323..
so no problem with it too.

For office is used openoffice 3.0 (now beta).. 

Media is produced or convertd using ffmpeg mplayer...    can be seen on
the standard gnome media
player, using libxine backend... 

it just works....

Hope will start installing the servers till end of this month...

Ok... and the users that already have the vista boxes??? (about 2%)
No problem... for a small $$$$  they can install a program
that identifyes the notebook to the servers. About the media...
well they can always convert the media... (some more cost is
involved...)
no virus protection is installed in the network. so windows users
are advised to not link their computers at any point of the network
(use at own risk signs are all around...)

Included in the project, there is $$$$ for training the users to use
gnome...
(well in fact... make the users forget words and methods. (excell,
outlook, word,
anti-virus, codec, media player...))
Why not KDE????   too powerfull.. excelent, consumes more resources,
must get an written permission for QT (the lawers said...). Too
complicated for the users....
the users just want to ckick and go... 

That is the project... it was 2 years of negotiation... of course "THEY"
tried to do the same...
but after 2 years... the project specification remains the same... 

Another good candidate is Arch Linux...   but have some problems with
the media play...
(totem xine zoom does not work, and the openoffice in native language
have some problems,
kernel version and internals change too soon... the kernel schedule does
not compare to FreeBSD7_ULE...
so sometimes the media play "chokes"  at heavy load...  but is a good
candidade)...

With the $$$$  earn in the project... some of them will be inject in
FreeBSD to make some things work (flash player,
buggy bios...).  Must have $$$ to teach people to program in
gnome/gtk... 
this will generate JOBS.. if one in 100 produce something in some time
we will have a "new softwre company"...
The first buyer???  the govern...

The ideia is to theach the children for no need to punish the men...


Thanks for reading....

The -bare- minimum for OpenSolaris is 512MB. That's not only for ZFS.
In my experience ZFS on solaris is rock solid. OpenSolaris is not yet
ready for production servers though i.m.h.o. nor is nevada_b90 with the
ability to boot off ZFS root. Production servers need to be well (no
thoroughly) tested ;-)

The best stable (production) server with ZFS is solaris-10u5
If you want to boot off ZFS, S10u6 will support that.

But these versions too need lots of ram. I think fbsd has a lighter
footprint.

The servers internal NIC is a Intel 1000 Gigabit card, using the em0 driver. I never 
had an issue with it w/ the 5.x or 6x series or freebsd, so I suspect a buggy 
driver in 7.0 

/var/log/messages contains spams of these messages:
kernel: interrupt storm detected on "irq19:"; throttling interrupt source

Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Technically, FreeBSD is not Linux.  The Unix family tree looks something
like the following (greatly simplified):

         Bell Labs Unix
               |
       ----------------
       |              |
    BSD Unix      SysV Unix
       |              |
       |              |
     FreeBSD       Solaris       Linux

Linux is way over to the right by itself because it doesn't really have
any "genetic" relation to the others.  FreeBSD doesn't share any original
"genetic" material with the SysV line, either, but that's basically
because it "evolved" to that point -- whereas Linux was created from
scratch to emulate (mostly SysV) Unix functionality.  There's a lot in
common between most Linux distributions and most FreeBSD installs, but
that's in large part because of the plethora of open source applications
that can be installed on both, and because the two are both tied to a
sort of Unix "tradition" of OS design.  It's not so much because of any
actual family relation, per se.

Sorry if this seems somewhat off the topic of what you're asking.  I'm
just trying to be informative.  A better way to phrase your original
sentence would have been something like "I am completely new to Unix-like

Is the Linksys access point a router?  Is it running NAT?  Your FreeBSD
system might effectively be tucked away in a subnet, which could possibly
account for (some of?) your problems.

Does this mean you can't ping the Linksys access point?  Is the access
point configured to ignore pings?

You probably don't need three copies of the same line -- or are those
three different IP addresses that you've Xed out?  Is the period after
"search" what's actually in the file, or did you elide some of the
contents of that line?

Sorry if I'm not as useful as I should be -- I still haven't fully woken
up, and may miss something obvious.

Use:

Aterm*font: -bitstream-bitstream\ vera\ sans\ mono-medium-r-normal--16-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-15

in ~/.Xdefaults (all on one line).

Then:

$ xrdb -load

The size of the font can be varied by changing the 16 in that line.

$ xlsfonts | less 

gives you the names of the fonts you can use.

I would certainly hope so; I can't see much of a market for gigabit 
ethernet devices that can't do full-duplex.  (I'm a touch confused, 
however, by your phrasing that as if you're rebutting something I wrote.)

Sorry. should have been:

$ xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults

Does the dir /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/ exist?

If not you have to install: x11-fonts/bitstream-vera and follow the
instructions to change your xorg.conf and then restart X.

If it exists, you have to add the dir to xorg.conf like so:

        FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/"

under the "Files" section. Restart X.

X should read ~/.Xdefaults on start up & your font will be used for
aterm.

xlsfonts should also now list the bitstream vera fonts.

Yes, I assumed that because Sun can implement and optimize ZFS to fit
OpenSolaris, while we run the risk with FreeBSD to implement bugs
while we implement ZFS.

As you might have read, I have quite a lot of RAM available on this
server (4GB), but ofcource I want the operating system to take as
little as possible so that I have as much RAM as possible over for the
server processes to work with (mostly web-server and mysql-server).

According to a page I have found it says that some basic
(FreeBSD-specific) functions are not ready, how does that affect ZFS
in general?

Well, I can't be sure without seeing your entire routing table, but I
would bet you need to do something more like this:

route add -net 10.0.0.0/24 -iface ipw0
route add default 10.0.0.1
  (or maybe route add default gw 10.0.0.1)

If that doesn't work try giving us the output from your routing table
(netstat -rn).

This hasn't anything to do with ZFS but on the different configuration
of the clockrate. FreeBSD uses 1000 ticks, while it's 500 on Solaris.
This means that FreeBSD can switch to different tasks twice as fast
than Solaris. For a server a high tick rate isn't necessary, so it
doesn't matter really. And Solaris still is a server OS.
If you're running a desktop it makes quite a difference, of course.
Interesstingly enough PC BSD configures kern.clockrate to 2000.

could you tell any pros for opensolaris?

agree

while i don't use it, it works rather as in manual. no crashes if 
configured right.

that's just my opinion about ZFS that it isn't very useful at all. it's 
just memory and CPU eater.

while i use RAID-1 for a long time be it linux or netbsd or freebsd, there 
is no need for checksumming. there are sector's checksums on disks, 
checked on every read. in SATA protocol there is error checking during 
transmission too.

there is already well done things in hardware to do disk transfers without 
CPU overhead, but ZFS introduces overhead and advertises it as feature.

quick advice - gmirror this 2 drives and then use UFS.

Hi,

We install a new server Dell 2950 with FreeBSD 7.0 and we've got some
issues with same.

Hardware: Dell 2950 Intel(R) Xeon(R) Dual CPU Quad-Core E5335  @ 2.00GHz
(1995.01-MHz K8-class CPU) with 4079 MB RAM and 2 x 250GB SATA HDD.

Normal server install using developer, all sources without games.
Upgrade to 7.0-p1#, then recompile kernel with

GENERIC +

device pf
device pfsync
device pflog
device carp

options         HZ=3D1000
options         DEVICE_POLLING

Server is running as secondary PF firewall with CARP/PFSYNC/IFSTATED.
Additional services running on the server are bind, net-snmp and ssh.
We have additional 7 servers running similar services with 6.2 and 7.0
FreeBSD all running fine.

Later same day the server crashed.
The traffic was on MASTER CARP server when crash happen, server was not
under load, CPU was 0% and memory 10% from NMS reports.=20
We were able to got a crash dump:

[root@fw2 FW]# kgdb kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0

looks like very bad CPU and I/O scheduling on Solaris.
maybe that's their 32-64 hardware threads capable chip is advertised so 
much? :)

there is quite big difference with geli. it is CPU eater and produces 
delays noticable on machines that like P3 or less. but at least - it does 
something useful unlike these ZFS checksumming and other things.

but comparision probably the same, or difference less noticable on 
stronger systems.

whatever it means ;)

anyway something get changed between FreeBSD 6 and 7.

as i changed this on quite loaded server from 6.3 to 7 - general 
throughput increased well. tasks are done much faster.

on on my laptop it's the same, but interactive delays was much lower on 
6.3

is it possible to turn "old mode" on FreeBSD 7. on my laptop interactive 
performance is more important.

ZFS is memory and CPU eater. prepare that very few will be left for actual

I tried to make a grep script on find a string in all files on path ./ 
and down. It does anything exept searching in files and reporting them.
Is there a Grep Guru who can hint me out? Thanks,

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep pattern

find . -type f -print0|xargs -0 grep <grepoptions> <text to search>

anyway it's nothing about being Grep Guru, or Find Guru

but it's really worth to be Man Guru :)

man find

indeed it is better. while difference between gcc 3.* and 4.* is HUGE in 
respect of code size. after i upgraded to FreeBSD 7 from 6.3 (so gcc got 
upgraded to 4.*) i recompiled bash. same version, >20% smaller!

finally gcc turned to rule "small code=fast code", always true on 
processors with at least 1 level of cache, not mentioning 2 or 3 cache 
levels :)

The system supplied grep(1) /is/ gnu grep:

complains "Error binding pop3s to 0.0.0.0:995 and bind: Address already 
in use (48)".  therefore the 995 port never becomes available during the 
restart.  Why is that happening?  She the stunel logs below.

any clues?

I just discovered that firefox can save motion video
in addition to displaying it. But I don't know how
to play back the saved video.cgi file. Mplayer
complains about missing configuration data.

Does anyone know how to play back the file saved
by firefox?

Is there some other mailing list to which I should
post this question?

Thanks,
Dave Feustel

no. it's just because of scheduling and I/O algorithms used in solaris.

still enough for UFS with softupdates - which is REALLY fast.
you may set kern.maxvnodes much higher to speed it up even more.

AFAIK there are no plans to FORCE using ZFS instead of UFS in FreeBSD.
or there are? if so - fine time to check something else.

yes i am.

if you like - quick summary


1) ZFS "turns random writes into sequential writes" as they say. yes 
that's true. they just forgot to say that it then turns sequential reads 
into random reads. simple for anyone that still can use his/her brain.

2) ZFS RAID-z turns your X drives to single drive performance both on read 
and write. every normal RAID-5 implementation will give you random read 
speed of X-1 times single drive speed, while slow random write speeds (but 
still at least half of single drive). but this is advertised as a feature

3) a CPU,cache and memory bandwidth hogging "feature" of checksumming all 
blocks. thing that are already done in disk hardware. fortunately you can 
turn this off

4) write anywhere style of writing, just with large buffers it could get 
large blocks to be written at once if only large continous space are 
found.

quite good (but not that much better than UFS) as long as your drive is 
mostly empty.

5) incredibly high memory consumption. very high CPU consumption compared 
to UFS.

fyi, the below is from /usr/src/UPDATING:

COMMON ITEMS:

        General Notes
        -------------
        Avoid using make -j when upgrading.  From time to time in the
        past there have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or
        installworld.  This is especially true when upgrading between
        "distant" versions (eg one that cross a major release boundary
        or several minor releases, or when several months have passed
        on the -current branch).

There's no more need for find | xargs

Try:=20

find . -type -f -exec grep <grepoptions> <text to search> {} \+

-exec foo {} \+ behaves like xargs foo =20
-exec foo {} \; exec foo for every file

The issue here is that grep execs grep for each file found while
xargs batches the files.

This is of particular importance if one wants to see the file
names in the output.  In relation to this, if one wants to be
sure that grep always generates the file name, insure that it
always gets at least two files as arguments:

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep pattern /dev/null

FWIW, I have learned about gnu-grep's -r option reading this
thread, which I had not noticed previously.  I guess that just
goes to show that old habits die hard :-).

Way cool!  I hadn't known that about find(1).

Is this because of checksum verification (the need to read all=20

RAID-Z stores a single checksum over the whole stripe, instead of
checksumming each disks's section separately, so it has to read from
all disks to validate the stripe.  Only random reads are penalized,
though.

Hi,

I have installed mplayer-0.99.10_14 and mplayerplug-in-3.45 using packages
on my 7.0-RELEASE machine which runs Firefox 2.0.0.12. I am not able to see
*some* online content, though, and I couldn't find any pattern.
For example, going to http://www.davidgilmour.com/dvd.htm , I can see the
Windows Media streams (both low and high resolution versions), but QuickTime
and Real Player streams are not played at all --- a new tab opens in
Firefox, and I see "Getting playlist..." and "Connecting to server..."
messages, but then it says "Stopped" and that's it!
But, if I go to http://www.satriani.com/podcast/Satchafunkilus/ and click on
any of the podcasts (they are in .m4v which, if I'm not mistaken, is just a
container for QuickTime .mov videos), mplayerplug-in plays them flawlessly.
Another example for QuickTime is
http://www.vai.com/SightsSounds/video_vault/index.html where all the videos
can be played perfectly.
As for Real Player, I see watch BBC Persian website's videos in Windows
Media (e.g. this one about Euro2008 games
http://www.bbc.co.uk/persian/meta/dps/2008/06/bb/080606_op-euro2008_16x9_bb.asx),
but if I choose Real Player as my format, I can only hear the sound
and
no video is played!

I would appreciate any help :)

Thanks a lot

I really don't think that's a fault of make(1), it's a fault of the Makefiles,
which have to be written very carefully so that having multiple parallel
processes going might screw up building.  Yes, it has done that in the past, but
it's an occaisonal thing, not a regular thing, because there's a good number of
folks who build there kernels with something like -j4.  I often do.  One just
has to be really awake when you hit a problem, or when reporting a build
error... rebuild without the -jN.

I did some testing, at least for me, I get the most improvements when the number
of cores or processors equals the -j number.  You can make it higher, even
double it, withoout hurting things, but 95% of the improvements come from
matching the number of processes to the number of available CPUs (and that' by
my own testing, not theory).

Still, if you aren't willing to do your won troubleshooting, best to avoid using
- -j anything.  It's very  easy to screw up.

Hi

I've recently implemented OpenVPN under FreeBSD
For our team, it's been rock solid

I found the OpenVPN docs were excellent for Windohs/Linux but were lacking a little for BSD

I can send you my personal BSD related notes if you like

Take care

Steve

Hello,

I have, for some time, been able to ssh into my father's FreeBSD machine in 
the Road Runner network in Central New York.  Last night, I tried so that I 
could fix a problem for him and ssh timed out.  No problem I thought, his 
modem has a different IP than the one I have in my /etc/hosts file, but this 
turned to not be the case.

Well, after some digging, I did a traceroute to his IP address.  The packets 
went all over the place, from San Jose, to Colorado, back to San Jose, to 
Colorado then to Ohio, then to Denver, then to San Jose, then to Ohio, etc. 
(you get the idea).  Eventually, traceroute was just lost and confused and I 
hit ctrl-c.  Thinking the problem would work itself out, I decided to wait 
and try again tonight however, I'm having the same problem tonight.

Obviously, though, I can use my Internet connection (after all, the 
e-mail . . .), but why can't I get to his IP address.  For kicks and grins 
tonight, I logged onto my DSL modem and looked at it's routing table.  I 
found some interesting information.

First, my DSL modems IP is 71.221.172.38, however, the default route appears 
to be 67.41.38.201.  Obviously, I've got to cross at least one network to get 
to this default route in the first place.  I'm assuming this is the default 
route because it appears in the routing table as such:

dest		netmask		gateway
0.0.0.0	0.0.0.0		67.41.38.201

Now, here's the output of traceroute (with name resolution turned off):

[/usr/home/andy]
-> traceroute -n 67.41.38.201
traceroute to 67.41.38.201 (67.41.38.201), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
 1  * * *
 2  67.41.38.201  40.303 ms *  39.421 ms

Why on earth would there be delays on the first hop when not using name 
resolution?

Ok, now my machines setup: my DSL modem is the router (as you all knew).  It 
also acts as a DHCP server but my FreeBSD machine is setup as static IP.  The 
local, private, IP network is 192.168.0.0/24 with the DSL modem as 
192.168.0.1 and my box is statically assigned 192.168.0.10.

Any thoughts as what might be wrong on my end before I start bugging my ISP?

Thanks,
Andy

Hi,

Is there any way to answer the posts in the mailing lists if one is not
subscribed to the list and does not receive them in his mailbox? From time
to time, I see posts which I can actually answer and contribute to, but
since I'm not subscribed to the lists, even if I post an answer to the
person asking the question and CC it to the list, it doesn't regroup with
other posts on the same topic. Is there any way around this?

Thanks :)

I second this request. I am getting ready to implement a VPN for a
small company and any extra documentation I can get would be greatly
appreciated.

  How about,

unset LC_ALL

What im trying to figure out is the best way to install the OS on a 
compact flash, put it as read only, then install a 2nd HDD to store the 
mysql data,etc.  What is the best way to do this?

Thanks.

I have a high pitched whine coming from my motherboard when the EHCI
USB 2.0 controller is enabled in the BIOS.  The whine only starts once
FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE is halfway through booting.

The whine also goes away when I plugin a USB drive in with EHCI
controller enabled (usb keyboard and mouse being already plugged in).

Is this a hardware problem, or could it possibly be software related???

I can't imagine this is a software issue. Sounds strange. Have you
tried to see if it isn't a fan issue? We have some Dell GX280s with a
bad batch of motherboards at my university---under specific conditions
(e.g., using certain video cards) the system fan will spin up 'til the
system sounds like it's about to take off.

Good luck,
~Jason

Thank you Edward,

Now gcin menu is shown from QT app and all apps still speak English.
But the problem is that selected Chinese character doesn't appear in the 
editbox in QT applications.

  Your qt app and gcin must start via zh_TW.UTF-8 environment.

  We don't have qt immodule in gcin ports yet.

ps. You need XIM when you use qt app. In ~/.bash_profile,
    export QT_IM_MODULE=xim

I've found that on my Q6600 (quad core) system, the optimal is 8
though the improvements after 5 were minimal. It depends if the jobs
are I/O bound or not and the scheduler. Although even with ffmpeg, the
optimal number of threads with this quad core system is 8. On my
previous system with a dual-core chip with the same hardware, the
"magic number" was 4 (again, 2x the number of cores). This was with
the ULE scheduler, I'm not sure if the same holds true for the 4BSD
scheduler or not.

And as you said, it's important to use make without -j if the build
fails before reporting bugs, since there are no guarantees that world
will build properly with multiple jobs.

Hi Gonzalo, all

I knew I should have done that in the first place, sorry  :-)
They were embarrassingly messy so I resisted

I just fixed them up a bit
I hope they can be of help

See OpenVPN from http://www.isgsp.net/freebsd/index.html

Take care

Steve

I've tried also specifing the IP for root-path, but as it seems, the hosts
defaults to server-name or next-server (these are the same for me), so it's=
 not
neccessery to specify the IP in root-path.

Also the fileserver and the dhcp server are the same. You should have seen =
this
in the included config I gave.

Furthermore, meanwhile we've noticed that loader fails to get the pxe varia=
bles
when the onboard raid is enabled, and it notices the PXE environment when t=
he
disks are not included in any RAID setups. Quite strange.

nothing to checksum. sit down for a while and think.

you have say 100 MB file linearly placed on position A on disk.
and your program requests 100kB writes to possitions like 200kB*(between 0 and 499) randomly.

ZFS will cache all it then blow all this as 50MB linear write" at 
position B on disk.

then after some time (data not in cache) you like to read file linearly.

what you get:

read 100kB from position B, seek to position A to read 100kB, then to 
position B reading 100kB, then to position A etc. etc.

LOTS of seeking.

while reads are more common than writes on most cases ZFS make things 
worse.

of course i told about good case where ZFS could find large continous 
space. if your drive is well filled it's unlikely.


with UFS disk is divided for cylinder groups. so too - it's unlikely you 
will find large continuous space BUT there are very likely you will find 
large chunk of fragments withing same cylinder group which requires 
much shorter head movement. while really big blocks are forcibly splitted 
to different cylinder group, as having long seek every few megabytes isn't 
a problem.

that's what UFS does for 20 years. the major improvement then was soft 
updates, now it is really fast even with small files.



i just skipped talking about memory and CPU usage, because there is 
nothing to talk much. it's just make ZFS crap and nothing else.

Today most people's problem are TOO FAST CPU and TOO MUCH MEMORY.Sun found 
the solution, just like windows.

you have to use tmpfs for /tmp, /var/tmp, /var/run and probably /var/log.

random reads are most common read on unix, unless you process linearly 
huge files, but that's fast on UFS too.

How do you receive them if you are not subscribed to the list? Some magic?
What stops you from subscribing?:-)

hi, stunnel 4.25 does not kill all stunnel instances after issuing "stop";
you have to kill all old stunnel jobs before restarting it.

Hard to tell. I've had whining EPIA-boards when run at 1000 Hz,
and after switching kern.hz to 100 Hz in /boot/loader.conf, the
high-pitched whine stopped entirely. It also stopped when I
slightly deviated from the 1000 Hz (to, say, 900 Hz or 1100 Hz),
so there was obviously some hardware component on the boards
oscillating like mad at this very frequency.

I'm no specialist and it may be an urban legend, but from
what I gathered, some coils could exhibit the behavior of
generating those high-pitched whines when exposed to certain
frequencies.

Hello everyone,

are there any experiences with FreeBSD being an NFSv4 client out there?

And furthermore, is there any further development of NFSv4 functionality 
within FreeBSD to come closer to RFC 3530?

Thanks for any reply and best regards

Hello all,

I have the following configuration -

FreeBSD 6.2 (minimal install)
Running in VMware 6.x
Windows VISTA BUSINESS 64-bit guest (core duo 3 GHz, 4 GB RAM)

supfile-stable is edited just with the domain (cvs.at) and the version 
(6_3 or 7_0).

csup with this supfile runs for some time, then the virtual machine 
freezes and the host shows 100% CPU use. After restarting the 6.2 host 
2-3 times and csup again, eventually csup completes.

Could somebody advice me what might be going wrong?

Thank you,
Iv

Just did some tests and found out the same -

csup freezes when the Free memory ends (the virtual machine has 512 MB RAM).

Is this a known issue, and is there a workaround?

Thank you,
Iv

If you are reading the mailing lists via the FreeBSD website
(http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/current/freebsd-questions.html)
you can use the "Raw E-Mail" link of a posting to fetch a
copy and incorporate it into your mail client.

Two common mail formats are pine mail (one file per folder),
and MH mail (one file per message).  I use Sylpheed which uses
MH mail format so its quite easy.  I created a folder called
"Mail/web-list" and fetch the mail directly to it.  The trick
is to use the next numerical message number, in this example
"114":

  cd ~/Mail/web-list
  fetch -R -o 114 'http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=422834+0+current/freebsd-questions+raw'

It is then possible to just use Sylpheed normally and click
on "Reply to All".  The mail will be properly threaded for
the mailing lists.

I've not used the "one file per folder" type of mail client
in a very long time but I would think that just appending
the new mail to the end would suffice.  

You will need to investigate how your particular mail client
operates and what format it uses, but what you want to do
is possible.  I would recommend backing up your mail before
experimenting and using the test mailing list
(freebsd-test@freebsd.org).

HTH,

Randy

Besides what Randy wrote, several mailing lists are mirrored to
newsgroups.  I subscribe to muc.lists.freebsd.questions, even though I
am subscribed to the list.  (I prefer not to receive all that stuff as
e-mail.)  When answering a post, I have to edit the addresses, but my
answer is then threaded properly.

Hello,

I am also (very) interested in running FreeBSD under HyperV since HyperV will
liberate itself from Windows Server soon after the final release (it will not depend
on an preliminary Windows Server installation but will be "standalone" and
practically free of charge, which makes it (for me) a very interesting solution).

>> Im trying to set up a FreeBSD VM under Hyper-V but i the instalation

I've heard that it works (at least boots) with 8-CURRENT. Are there plans to
include support for FreeBSD 7.x branch too? That would be really cool. Yes, I
know, patches are welcome.

Thanks,
Nejc

This is not necessarily wrong, I used to have a dialup account where
connections within the UK would go often go to London, then go round a
tour of Western Europe, and then come back through London. Although
there probably is a fault in your case since you can't connect.

I think Point-to-Point links just work like that, with arbitrary
addresses on either end of the link. My address and gateway have only
the first byte in common.

I don't see what name resolution has to do with the delay,  the 39ms is
the round-trip time to the gateway at the ISP.

One of the device probes during startup could be sending what appears to
be a full speed command to the fan controller.

> ifconfig

This looks ok. Mind you, I'm not all that up on wireless, so I don't 
know if that could be part of your issue.

> arp
> ? (192.168.1.3) at (incomplete) on ath0 [ethernet]
> ? (192.168.1.254) at (incomplete) on ath0 [ethernet]

This is generally telling you that you have recently attempted to 
communicate to the IP's, and address resolution is in progress (and in 
your case, most likely will timeout).

The rest of your message is irrelevant at this point, since you can't 
even resolve the layer 2 addresses on the local link.

I'd have to say at this point that either there is a problem with the 
wireless config on the FreeBSD machine, or there is a firewall on the 
machine blocking your traffic.

Does the linksys show you as connected? If you enable DHCP on the 
linksys, does it register a client lease for the box?

If you cable yourself directly to the Linksys (as opposed to wireless) 
with the same IP configuration, does it work then?

In the Gmail web interface:
    Settings -=> Forwarding and POP/IMAP -=> Enable POP for all mail

This isn't a Thunderbird issue.

Hello everybody,

I am trying to build a VMware twin of an existing production server 
running FreeBSD 6.2. I have a 6.2 boot only ISO. The installation from 
FTP works well, but I have some strange issues - (i. e. csup when 
pulling the 6.3 sources freezes the OS and completes after two restarts, 
make buildworld crashes, etc.). I normally I move with the RELEASE 
versions and I have never had such problems the last 2-4 years. Could it 
be that I am doing something wrong, or simply versions outside of 
RELEASE are to be treated differently?

Thank you,
Iv

video.cgi is not the video you were watching it is a partial code segment
from the web server you were browsing.
there is no such video encapsulation type as a .cgi file, they are common
gateway interface scripts/executables.

Hi FreeBSD users

Currently in /usr/ports/sysutils/syslog-ng there is version syslog-ng
1.6.12. I need version syslog-ng 1.6.5 (the same as in production
environment) to test configuration changes.

Is there an archive of the ports tree? Whats the FreeBSD way to
install this old version integrated in the rest of the system?

cheers
Simon

If 1.6.12 was already installed, I would use portdowngrade.

Looks through the CVS logs (you can use the web interface or Dan's
freshports: http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/syslog-ng/)

Find the date of the version you want, then configure your supfile
to grab the ports tree from that date.  Something like:
date=2004.08.28.10.00.00
should get what you want.  When cvsup is done running, you'll be
able to run make install from the syslog-ng directory to install
that version ... assuming that distfile is still readily available.
If it's not, you'll have to do some web searches until you find it
manually.  Some projects are really good about keeping old distfiles
around, other are not.

The \+ trick behaves like xargs, so this shouldn't be an issue :)

You can ensure the same even if xargs picks up a single file to grep
with

    xargs -0 grep pattern /dev/null

This will cost an open() / read() pair for each batch of files, but it
ensures that grep will always see at least two file names, and it should
print the filename of any matching files.

Hello,

when I want to install www/apache22 then following
error appears:

beastie# make install clean
===>  Installing for apache-2.2.8

===>  apache-2.2.8 conflicts with installed
package(s):
      apr-db42-1.2.8_2

      They install files into the same place.
      Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/www/apache22.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/www/apache22.
beastie# pkg_delete apr-db42-1.2.8_2
pkg_delete: package 'apr-db42-1.2.8_2' is required by
these other packages
and may not be deinstalled:
kde-3.5.8
kdesdk-3.5.8
kdevelop-3.5.0
kdewebdev-3.5.8,2
subversion-1.4.4_1
beastie#

The question: Is it possible to keep them both
running, or have I to delete really KDE?

With regards
Stevan Tiefert

/usr/bin/grep *is* GNU grep in FreeBSD:

% keramida@kobe:/home/keramida$ grep --version
% grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1-FreeBSD
%
% Copyright 1988, 1992-1999, 2000, 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

AFAIK, Gabor Kovesdan is working on replacing grep(1) with a
BSD-licensed implementation, but he also tries to keep UI
compatibility as much as possible.  So I guess the -r/-R option
should work in that version too once it hits the tree.

I use ports/lang/gcc42.
I set WITHOUT_JAVA=yes in the Makefile.
However, with each tree update this option is
overwritten, so I have to edit the Makefile
each time I update the port.

What is the best way to preserve my custom setting,
add an environment variable?

many thanks
anton

Hello,

I'm new to FreeBSD and really attracted to it because of the
performance and stability it provides. So I am looking to develop a
high performance system that may need to process over 100K UDP
messages per second and be able to store information quickly. I
couldn't find much documentation on the memory limits in FreeBSD,
especially per-process limits in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
Could you please point me to where I can find such information along
with other performance tuning tips and characteristics of the OS to
keep in mind?

Hi,

I recently upgraded a machine from FreeBSD 6.3 to 7.0. Everything is  
working fine except for the OpenVPN server. I had it set up with a  
bridge configuration, but now even with a basic tunnel I can't get  
successful ping across the VPN. I can make a connection from both  
Linux and OS X but neither can actually use the tunnel. Are there any  
changes in 7 which might affect this? Anyone else using OpenVPN on 7.0?

Thanks,
--Andrew

There are conformance test suites out there.  
The decent ones all seem to cost money, but
you might want to look at the "Open POSIX" 
project.

This is encouraging.   Is that info really enough to create a player
such as Flash 9?

I hope some folks will take a good shot at it.  It is really beyond me.

Companies who insist on their front pages and their functional things
such as sales using flash or some other gimmick are inflicted with 
persons who are more interested in supplanting their egos than 
making the online product work for the company.

But, if the web page has all its business in normal html and only
uses flash and other such stuff as extra attraction and advertising
then, no problem.   A little eye candy on the side is not the issue.
It is when the essentials are all blocked and made non-functional 
by the eye candy that the company and/or web designer is way off base.

The numbers come out each month (BSD Stats), but unfortunately they really 
represent only a fraction of the actual number of BSD systems in use.  They 
also do not distinguish between server and desktop use -- which is sometimes 
impossible anyway since many systems, such as the one I am typing on right 
now, are used for both.

No legends here. The horizontal sweep frequency for televisions in the
US is 17,500 Hz. Many people could hear that whistle from cheap flyback
transformers. Other devices would buzz, hum or rattle when they
resonated with EM fields. Occasionally they can be heard by humans, more
frequently they can be heard by their pets. As I have gotten older, I
don't notice it as much.

The tools do attempt to improve timekeeping if you put

    tools.syncTime = "TRUE"

in the guest's .vmx file.  However, the tools will only move the time 
forward.  It is attempting to compensate for "lost ticks".  Without 
using syncTime the guest's clock can run slow, depending on the host's 
overall load.   With syncTime on, my Linux guest machines stay 
synchronized perfectly.  Well, they're within one second anyway, which 
is fine for my application.  The recipe for this success was to turn on 
syncTime, and use the following linux boot options:

    clock=pit nosmp noapic nolapic


However, I have not been able to achieve the same success with 
FreeBSD.   The clock doesn't lose time, but it gains time, very slowly.  
It's probably load dependent, but it's around 10 seconds a day.  What's 
the FreeBSD equivalent of "clock=pit" ?  Meaning to use the PIT and not 
the APIC.

In general, but also in this application in particular, one does not one 
time to move backwards.  The Dovcot IMAP server immediately exits if it 
detects that time went backwards.

In order to use NTP, you'd probably have to turn off syncTime, which 
probably does a better job anyway except for the gaining time problem.  
I haven't tried actually running ntpd instead of a periodic sync, as 
this is not recommended by VMware's timekeeping white paper: 
http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vmware_timekeeping.pdf.  My last-ditch 
strategy will be to start monkeying with the knobs for syncTime, like these:

    timeTracker.catchupPercentage
    timeTracker.catchupIfBehindByUsec
    timeTracker.giveupIfBehindByUsec

But I'd rather fix it the same way I have with Linux.

Unfortunately IBM has not certified my hardware (xSeries 226) with ESX 
3.5, and the installation just hangs, so I'm stuck on 3.0.2 for now.

Thanks, I will try that suggestion.

Hello all,

I have a FreeBSD 7 machine that I am running gmirror on (ad4 and ad6).

there is an /exports and /home that need to be resized.

(right now they each are about 55G and /home needed to have been 100G  
and exports 10G)

what do I need to do to fix this.

I am assuming break the mirror, fdisk the /exports and /home then  
remake them, and then rebuild the mirror..

right?

What do I need to do with as little impact on the running server as  
possible.. as many services are already configured on this box and  
it's running :P

(of course.. )

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for this kick; I'd missed or misunderstood using {} \+

If find(1) is to be believed, so does -exec utility [argument ...] {} +

Another good clue.  Many ways to do anything; I've often used such as:

% find /sys/ -name "*.[chm]" -exec egrep -Hi 'CPUFREQ_[GS]ET' {} \;

which has grep print the filenames, rather than using -print with find,
but I've just now run the above find, then using \+ instead, twice each,
and am pleased to learn that the latter method runs ~4 times faster in
real time and is even lighter on the system:

% time find /sys/ -name "*.[chm]" -exec grep -Hi 'CPUFREQ_[GS]ET' {} \;
/sys/kern/kern_cpu.c:static int cpufreq_settings_sysctl(SYSCTL_HANDLER_ARGS);
  [.. etc ..]
20.524u 46.205s 4:03.91 27.3%   79+201k 5698+0io 0pf+0w

1.756u 3.058s 1:07.51 7.1%      81+290k 7148+0io 13pf+0w

% time find /sys/ -name "*.[chm]" -exec grep -Hi 'CPUFREQ_[GS]ET' {} \;
21.742u 44.382s 3:57.99 27.7%   79+200k 7144+0io 0pf+0w

When you're on a good thing :) but always plenty new tricks to learn.

Did you burn the ISO on the CD/DVD as a file, or did you instruct the 
burning program to use it as a disk image?

Add the following to your /etc/make.conf:

=2Eif ${.CURDIR:M*/lang/gcc*}
WITHOUT_JAVA=3Dyes
=2Eendif

What this means is: if the current build directory (.CURDIR) matches=20
(M) the pattern */lang/gcc*, set WITHOUT_JAVA=3Dyes. See the VARIABLE

Also check the boot sequence in the BIOS setup. It should try to boot

What I would do is break the mirror, then resize the partitions and
newfs them on one disk. Then dump|restore the data from the other disk
to your new partitions, and recreate the mirror with the newly resized
disk and insert the other disk into that mirror. That disk should then
rebuild with the new partitioning.

Of course, you can only do this while the mirror is unused. So you're
going to have to have some degree of downtime on those filesystems. You
can minimize the downtime by killing the mirror and remounting the
filesystems direct from one disk while you work on repartitioning the
other. You may want to mount read-only, however, as the dump|restore may
take a significant amount of time and you wouldn't want to lose any data
that may be written to the other disk while you're busy copying from it.
When you've built the new mirror with the repartitioned disk and
dump|restored to it (don't forget the -L option on dump), remount the
partitions from the new mirror and then insert the second disk.

That's what I'd do, anyhow.

I am having a little trouble picturing what you got.  It doesn't sound 
like something I have seen when booting from a CD.

First, is there something in your floppy drive?   If so, take it out.

Second, your BIOS boot sequence should be:  Floppy, CD, hard disk
If it doesn't happen to have the CD in the BIOS sequence, then
put it there.

When you start to boot from the CD, then just let it continue. 
It might put up a boot menu, but you should be able to just wait
and take the default.

Past that, there should be no other prompt or menu after that
besides install selection stuff.

So the answer is there is support in -CURRENT but is still in its early
stages.

If you have a floppy drive make the boot floppy as explained on the 
handbook ,and then install
via ftp.

Likely you have burned the iso file on a windows machine? I use both Roxio 
and Nero and have NEVER had any issues. Both will automatically set up 
correctly to burn the contents of the ISO just by double-clicking on the 
ISO image.

This may be off-topic, but...

I am using cable internet Time Warner/Road Runner/Earthlink in New
York. However, I have a wireless router behind the cable modem and the
router is registered with dyndns.org.  When I registered with them, I
chose a dns name from them for the router and every time my IP changes
the router sends a request and their database is updated with the new
IP - this is roughly how they work. So I can access machines in my
home network usind a DNS name instead of an IP address. You and your
dad may find this setup useful.

Rambius

If the problem is burning on an MS machine, then you have to make sure
that the system is not trying to make an ISO out of the file before
it burns it.    The file is already an ISO and needs to be burned
just as it is without any type of conversion.

You'll have to check the options for the utility that you are
using to burn the CD.

Hi,

Im trying to upgrade some ports, and have a problem with libcdio. At least i
think i do. 

When i try to upgrade, say, Nautilus (or a buncha other things), it dies in the
end with a "libcdio-0.78.2_2 is already installed. You may wish to make deinstall"
etc. message.

But i did go to /usr/ports/sysytils/libcdio and make deinstall and make reinstall,
and this was successful. I sync'd the ports collection again, but no luck. Nothing
in UPDATING about this.

Thanks!

Jen

Another free alternative which I've used in the past is BurnAtOnce.

Thank you all for discussing this with me. I really like to here your opinions.
I wont answer to all of your posts, because half of them is off-topic,
but still interesting to read.

I haven't heard/read about any huge CPU consumptions from ZFS, not yet
at least. If you have links to benchmarks and comparisons with other
fses (UFS2 in particular) it would be grate!
For the memory I've read that ZFS use up to approximately 700MB of ram
for caching, which is quite much, but not too much compared to my 4GB
that is available. However there doesn't seem to be an upper limit for
ZFS, which I think is very bad.

OpenSolaris 2008.05 didn't boot on my hardware, so it's out of this
project anyway. The live-cd hangs on "device detect".
One of the pros for OpenSolaris I've noticed is the support for a
virtual host and at the same time able to use ZFS, but that doesn't
matter anymore because I can not boot it and ZFS will probably eat my
memory if I can set an upper limit.

I have now found a filesystem for linux that do checksum on the fly,
btrfs. But it is still very experimental, so I wont try it for this
project.

Yes, sure.  I think Bill was just being extra-conservative[1] and he
explicitly chose to quote `+' with a backslash to avoid spurious
interpreration by the shell.  I also type `\+' out of habbit most
of the time.

[1] BSD users tend to be this way, but that's a good thing, right? :)

This limit can be tuned. At least on solaris.
Also, ZFS definitely prefers a 64 bit kernel.

Just start up Nero Express; then you will get a window in which you can

When you click on that option, you can choose the location of the .iso file.

Did you ftp the .iso file? Then first try thru _http_ and process the above.

That you burn your iso on a Windows machine has nothing to do with the 
problem.

I think I'm going to just have to try another motherboard
unfortunately.  The one I'm having problems with is an Asus M2A-VM,
which I thought would be good quality.

I wonder Gigabyte's all-solid capacitors would make a difference?

http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/FileList/NewTech/2006_motherboard_newtech/article_08_ultra_durable2.htm

The thing that really bugs me is that it's only there if I don't have
certain USB devices plugged in.  If I plug in an Apple keyboard and
mouse for example (which has usb ports on the keyboard), the noise
goes away.

I do. I don't use bridging, though. Do you have a good reason to use it?
Have you tried to tcpdump the interfaces? How did you configure the bridge?
We would certainly need more information to try to help you out.

That's pretty much what /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portdowngrade does, with a 
little bit of user interface on it.

And there could be dependency and version issues.

That's good to know, thanks! Do you have any reference/link that
describes how to manage that? It's good to know for the future.

I always run my server on amd64-software, as far as I can, because I
see better performance and I do not have the trouble with 4GB memory
limit. Thanks for the info!

Hi,
   just noticed that I need to update a whole bunch of ports due to
gettext issue, I am used to portmaster and henceforth exec portmaster
-uBdr gettext\* -x avifile to server this need. however, the update is
interrupted and needed to restart, I noticed an option (-R) to allow
skipping ports already up to date. so it becomes portmaster -uBdRr
gettext\* -x avifile, but i noticed that portmaster still
recompile/reinstall gettext and everything that needs it. how can I
get this done right?? thank you!!

Other than that some of the Win burners default to, or seem to encourage
selecting, the wrong options.

But, you're right, the CD easily be burned on a Win machine with many
different pieces of software.

	People,

	This is a bit hard to figure out how  to phrase, so please bear
	with me.  I want to put-back a BBS/forum type app somewhere on my
	site so that members of my writing group can continue to help me
	with their suggestions and edits of my Jottings project.  Some 
	people are taking a break for the summer, &c.

	I've had PHPBB up a few times, and lost it as many times for
	different reasons.  It takes about an hour to set up one of these
	``forum'' applications; I don't know about the others.  

	Does anyone have a best-win/solution as to which port/package to
	use?   Or would it be just as good to go with a canned
	(javascript or other) app?

	Again: the nutshell is to allow my fellow writers to comment-on,
	edit, suggest, critique, flame, whatever, my jotting meditation.
	[for now, the URL would not be published.]

	tia,

	gary

> I haven't heard/read about any huge CPU consumptions from ZFS, not yet

as i already said. most people today have problems as they have too fast 
CPU and too much RAM ;)

they don't see high CPU load on quad core machine with 16GB RAM having not 
big load :)




> For the memory I've read that ZFS use up to approximately 700MB of ram

UFS use what's unused. works on 16MB and 16GB.

man jail

while maybe not with resource control like on solaris, but i use it with 
success. it's really excellent.

but use nullfs with it to be able to share binaries.

> I have now found a filesystem for linux that do checksum on the fly,
> btrfs.

but why you need it?! all PATA/SATA drives do checksumming on every read.
in hardware, no CPU load.

when i tested it i was able to run it on 256MB machine stable after 
reading about tuning. but sorry i don't remember what options it were 
exactly.

I've recently noticed slow performance on a machine that runs amanda and stores 
backups for our network on a RAID-5. It was running 6.2. I upgraded to 6.3 just 
today, so it is completely up to date on the 6 branch. Here's hopefully most of the 
relevant info:

I'm getting performance like this (no other processes were running at this time):

dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile
165760+0 records in
165759+0 records out
84868608 bytes transferred in 25.028232 secs (3390915 bytes/sec)

I think I ought to be able to get more than 3.2MB/sec out of this card, right? The 
machine is about a year old and I am pretty sure it wasn't anywhere near this slow at 
the beginning, though I don't have any numbers from that time to back up that 
opinion. What else can I try to get more info or resolve the issue? I've looked 
online for others complaining of slowness and most of the chatter about twa on 
freebsd seems to be about the driver having been missing from certain install discs 
back in the day. No one else seems to be having speed issues.

Thanks!!

Caching is off; that will kill performance especially for small  
transactions.  If you've got battery backup for this system, consider  
enabling the onboard cache...?

It's difficult to tell about consumed memory in ZFS vs UFS since UFS
can be quite agressive at caching as well. -(although this caching is
often hidden by system tools and reported as "unused" memory)-

Jails are just slightly comparable to solaris zones. It's much more
then resource control! They're really like independent machines with
almost no memory footprint. It's quite common to run different zones
for a mailserver, webserver and i.e. users. Sparse zones use little
space, because lots of code is shared. It's all very tunable.
Running 40 sparse zones is hardly noticable.
Try that with 40 jails;-)

Because the ZFS checksumming makes the FS selfhealing. Chance for
errors are almost nill. No fsck.
Yes, it consumes memory, but memory is cheap, very cheap!
CPU load is hardly noticable.

Chuck, that made an immediate and huge difference:

# tw_cli set cache c0 u0 on
# dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile
5649235+0 records in
5649234+0 records out
2892407808 bytes transferred in 40.800142 secs (70892102 bytes/sec)

I had no idea having the cache on would be such a night and day difference.

I'm off to order the battery backup card.

Thanks!!!

you probably don't have your jails configured right. my 1GB pentium 4 
machine runs 20 jails, and it is hardly noticable.

I use port-mgmt/portconf for that. It allows to set port options
in /usr/local/etc/ports.conf like:

lang/gcc42: WITHOUT_JAVA

It was 15,750 for original NTSC (black and white RS170), and changed to 
15,734 when color (RS170A) came in in the 1950s. The vertical scan 
(field) rate also changed from 60 Hz to 59.94. These numbers were chosen 
because they are relatively easily derived from the newfangled color 
subcarrier of 3.579545 MHz, yet close enough to the old values that old 
pre-color TV sets could still lock to the new color signals.

The joke used to go, "Why did they pick that frequency?" "Well, the 
crusty old engineers just cranked it up until they couldn't hear the 
flyback anymore". I can still hear it, but then I'm still [just] on the 
candy-coated side of 50.

I guess this is getting a little OT here... but by way of a half-assed 
response to the OP's question, I think Bob is on the right track - seems 
like an electromechanical resonance of some sort.

[Please cc in replies, not currently subscribed. Thank you.]

I have a quick question that I can't seem to find an answer to via Google 
so far.

I've had a few people complain that when they telnet/ssh/ftp/web to our 
server, it's slow... I've traced the problem to them having no reverse on 
their IPs.

So basically their connection kinda hangs while the system waits to 
timeout on looking up their IP's reverse.

>From what I can tell, I should be able to just set "options timeout:n" and 
"options attempts:n" in resolv.conf.. BUT it seems FBSD's install doesn't 
allow you to do this.

Does anyone know a workaround to this? I thought maybe of changing it 
directly in resolv.h but then I'd have to rebuild world I think..? Is 
there perhaps a sysctl solution?

Thank you so much for your time.

Indeed. About 20 years ago our company produced a data logger for a
local gas utility. At one point our bright, young design engineer
replaced a linear voltage regulator with a switch-mode design - quite
novel at the time. Only thing was, the hand-wound inductor coils
inevitably emitted a hissing noise, not entirely unlike the sound of
escaping gas!

I was using it because I could then assign my laptop the same IP =20
easily through my router (a separate device with DHCP) and also have =20
hostnames pushed through DHCP. But I imagine in my case I could do the =20=

same thing with a tunnel.

> Have you tried to tcpdump the interfaces?

Yes, I did: 'tcpdump -i tun0'. Nothing shows up on the server, but on =20=

the client (OS X) I can see the pings being sent.

> How did you configure the bridge?

Here is my current config: It's no longer doing bridging though.

openvpn.conf:

port 1194
proto tcp
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert server.crt
dh dh1024.pem
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
keepalive 10 120
comp-lzo
persist-key
persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log
verb 3

And on my client:

tls-client
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert client1.crt
key client1.key
remote my-remote-host
proto tcp-client
port 1194
comp-lzo
ping 15
ping-restart 45
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
verb 3

I then ifconfig'ed the tun0 interface to be 10.8.0.2 =3D> 10.8.0.1.

Thanks!

It sounds like you might want a Wiki of some kind. Mediawiki and  
MoinMoin are both good, and if you're dealing with source code take a  
look at Trac.

phpBB is pretty decent, but I haven't used it in a while. Most CMS's  
also include forums of some kind. I'm partial to Drupal, but there's a  
good selection of choices at http://www.opensourcecms.com/ , and many  
of the popular ones will be in the ports tree.

Hi all

Where is the source directory of /lib/libm.so.x in /usr/src/?

grep -lr LIB=m /usr/src/ does not show any result.

Kind regards
Unga

Nothing stops me from subscribing to any list, just that I don't like to get
too many emails in my mailbox. In fact, I am subscribed to two of the lists
(x11 and current), but I chose not to get the emails. And I use my web
browser to read the messages, e.g.
http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/current/freebsd-questions.html .

You should configure your servers to not do the reverse lookup.  Not  
resolving is certainly the default for Apache.  For sshd, set UseDNS  
to "no" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.  As for telnet and ftp, I don't know  
where that might be configured.

Of course I don't know your needs and situation, but some people might  
consider it a reasonable policy to disallow ssh and telnet (and  
certainly mail) from hosts that don't have proper PTR records.

The problem is that I don't use any mail client, but the old fashion way of
using a web browser to log into my account and read my emails. That's why I
asked this question in the first place. Call me paranoid, but I just feel
more comfortable that way!
So to be more specific, how can I answer to a post from a mailing list from
within my, e.g., GMail or Yahoo! mailboxes? Is there any way to use the Raw
E-Mail output to send an email from within GMail to the OP and the list so
that it's threaded properly as well?

I will remember your instructions whenever I started using a mail client.
Maybe I should do it anyway --- how is Claw Mail?

Thanks a lot :)

Try using a few spaces or TABs around '=' :)

The directory you want is `/usr/src/lib/msun'.

Did it work? Did it work? Did it work?

(Or is the absence of a giant WOOOHOOO! the indicator that it didn't
work at all?)

OK :) thanks for the reply.

Btw, is it a mistake a tab before the m in the Makefile or is it intentional?

/usr/src/lib/msun/Makefile
LIB=    m

Actually I don't think you can do the same thing with a tunnel. You have
to use a different IP addresses for the tunnel itself. Have you read the
OpenVPN manual?

This means that there is a problem with the OpenVPN connection. Can you show
the tail of your logs on both sides?

Why are you using TCP anyway?

  According to docs  I  sliced and partitioned the second disk ,

 one doubt  :  here I created  10GB  bsd partition  in the second disk  ,

I have to assign o assign this  for /var (in my first  disk  /var is going =
to full)=20


Q1   )      so in /etc/fstab , the mount point what I have to specify  ? =20

 /var itself or  I need to create a directory  (mkdir   /myspace )=20

 and add it as the mount point in /etc/fstab  ?    like this=20


    /dev/da1s1e    /myspace       ufs      rw      2     2


OR=20

      /dev/da1s1e      /var       ufs      rw     2    2  =20



which one is correct  ?



and after this editing of  /etc/fstab   and restarting of the machine .


Q 2  )   my  serverbox  how it will continue to use the newly added space ?=
 for this I have to do any thing=20


some one told me that I have to copy all the contents of the /var  of first=
 disk to this newly added  space=20

is it right ?

how to do that=20


Q3 )    dd    /dev/da0s1d   /dev/da1s1/e      right ?  (to copy the content=
 from   /var (/dev/da0s1d)   of  the first disk  to   the newly added space=
   for var   on the second disk    (/dev/da1s1e )=20



Q4 )  Is it needed to install all the applications which already installed =
in the /var of the first disk to the  newly=20

added space on the second disk?=20




please give your tips and advice to  achieve   what I am trying to do.  Man=
y of you may have done this=20

before please help with your comments=20

| OK :) thanks for the reply.
|
| Btw, is it a mistake a tab before the m in the Makefile or is it
intentional?

It's quite usual in Makefiles to put tabs after the variable name in
assignment.

You will have to do something like the following:

- Mount the new partition to a temporary mount point (like /mnt) i.e.:

mount /dev/da1s1e   /mnt

- Copy all the contents from /var to /mnt. Since /var is in use in a 
running system, the results maybe less than optimal. I suggest you 
switch to single user mode for doing this:

shutdown now

Use something like the following to transfer the files and permissions:

tar cfC - /var . | tar xpfC - /mnt

(thank you M.W. Lucas!)

Now, unmount /var and /mnt and mount your new var:

umount   /var   /mnt
mount -o rw /dev/da1s1e  /var

Edit /etc/fstab and update it for the new disk:

 /dev/da1s1e      /var       ufs      rw     2    2

either exit to multi user mode or reboot. Of course, check that the 
files were actually copied to their right places first!

now much better - i know that you mirrored whole drives and then 
partitioned.


are whole mirror labeled? if yes - what partition you have to trim down?

if now - where are place (give me bsdlabel gm0s1 output)


as you have 2 drives it's quite easy:

it would be like that:

gmirror remove gm0 ad6
gmirror forget ad6
gmirror clear /dev/ad6
gmirror label -b round-robin -s 1048576 m0 /dev/ad6
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
that's options i use, use what you think it's good for you.

now - you have 2 degraded mirrors. old - gm0, new - m0

now partition m0 as you like.

then - get the system down to single user, unmount everything except /, 
make / read-only

then:

with partition that are same sized use dd if=/dev/oldpartition 
of=/dev/newpartition bs=1m

others - use newfs and tar|tar to copy files

after all done, mount new root partition somewhere read write, and fix 
etc/fstab

at the end - don't forget to bsdlabel -B

then reboot from ad6.

after successful boot:

gmirror stop gm0
gmirror clear ad4
gmirror insert m0 ad4

to get all new things mirrored.


PS. my advice. make one big partition+swap instead of so many. you won't 
have such problems again

Please configure apache to use the APR version coming from ports.
You can do that by making

and selecting the first option (APR_FROM_PORTS)

Hi, list,
        Recently, I encounter a very annoying issue, when I try to
        mount an ext2fs filesystem in laptop disk, after mounted it without any
        errors, I can't access it, ls /mnt/da0s3 says "bad file
        descriptor". In that disk, also has msdos and ufs fs, but they
        work well.
        I tried reformat whole disk, and fsck.ext2 -f that ext2fs
        slice, nothing works at all.
        But my a local disk has ext2fs too, it can be mounted and used
        well, don't know why?

The same thing happens in here too ..
The same question It has also been posted in this list on Friday 09 May 2008 
14:40:06 by Isaac Mushinsky and me, but nobody answered ...
On FreeBSD 7.0 i386 and Linux i386 in here, I get either get a 'Bad file 
descriptor' for directory /linux' or 

$ mount -t etx2fs /dev/ad0s7 /linux
$ ls /linux 
No such file or directory

I've got all of my music, pdfs, pictures and on a ext3 and I only need to 
mount it in order to get FreeBSD's Amarok access to my music collection.

If somebody has solution or a pointer to a solution or whatever may help on 
this matter, I would greatly appreciate his/hers reply :)

Blessings

Have you looked at any wiki software? I have Dokuwiki running on an
Apache server here at the office as an idea and collaboration incubator.
There were over 1100 pages created on it the first year. It's all
written in PHP and was quite simple to set up. You can get it at
<http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:dokuwiki>.

WOHOOOO!!!

(....running off to try it) This is a HUGE step in aiding with 
implementing/debugging software that needs to be patched for IPv6 
conformance (for me anyway).

Sounds like the dependencies are confused.  pkgdb(1) may help with
that.  If not, the brute force approach would be to remove the
affected ports all the way back to (and including) libcdio, and build
them over.

Sounds like the dependencies are confused.  pkgdb(1) may help with
that.  If not, the brute force approach would be to remove the
affected ports all the way back to (and including) libcdio, and build
them over.
I havent been able to figure out how to fix things with pkgdb. And i have tried, over and over, to remove the affected ports and build them from scratch but it hasnt been working.

So i went to libcdio and did a make deinstall, deleted the work files, and did a make install clean, and it installed fine. Then i tried to build gvfs, also by doing a make install clean, and it died in the same way--telling me to make deinstall and make reinstall of libcdio.

Ive tried this several times with no luck. If theres an even more brute force way id like to know what it is so i can do that. This is preventing a lot of other upgrades to GNOME, which i need.

Thanks!

Jen

Hi all,
   now I am taking a step back, instead of letting portmaster decides
which to upgrade, I use the option "-i" to interactively update the
ports. and I found out that "-uBdir" is different from "-u -B -d -i
-r", the latter one is the right way. I dont know how to use "-R"
option, since I have tried "-R -r" but portmaster still upgrade every
single port, With "-i" option, portmaster still re-upgrade gettext,
but at least it's moving to new ports that have not been upgraded.
this is just my two cents... thanks!

Not to point out the obvious, but you're sure your port tree is up-to-date?

Yes as i said in my first post i resynced ports before this, and just did it again to make sure. No changes to this port or any of the others involved.

Hiya

I've had this for a while now and have done many searches for info 
but have not yet come up with the right question, hence have not got 
the answer.

My main server has an Adaptec IDE raid card.  A couple of years ago I 
took disks that had been a mirror pair on that card out of the server 
and put them into my test server, not as a raid pair since the test 
server has no raid hardware.

During boot I see this
ad0: 19092MB <WDC WD200EB-00CPF0 06.04G06> at ata0-master UDMA66
ad1: 76319MB <WDC WD800JB-00ETA0 77.07W77> at ata0-slave UDMA66
ad2: 76319MB <WDC WD800JB-00ETA0 77.07W77> at ata1-master UDMA66
ad3: 19092MB <WDC WD200EB-00CPF0 06.04G06> at ata1-slave UDMA66
ar0: 76319MB <Adaptec HostRAID RAID1> status: BROKEN
ar0: disk0 DOWN no device found for this subdisk
ar0: disk1 DOWN no device found for this subdisk

The pair of ex-RAID disks are ad1 and ad2 and obviously are no longer 
a raid pair, yet 'something' is telling the ar() driver to try and 
pair them and failing because there is no raid hardware in that box.

Now I am reconfiguring that machine a bit and would like to fix this, 
both on these existing drives and on the 320MB drive I have just 
removed from a RAID1 pair and will be putting into the box instead of 
ad3 (the other 320GB from the pair is in a USB enclosure for other 
purposes and has not shown any signs of knowing it was in a raid 
pair)

I suspect the raidinfo is stored on the disk somewhere and a suitable 
'dd' command can erase it.  but where and how?

thanks for your help

I've run into similar experiences with other ports, and what I have done 
to get it to work is to deinstall the complaining port (in this instance 
libcdio), and let the original port install it as a dependency instead 
of doing a "make reinstall".

Best regards,
Greg Groth

Notice I have asked you to switch to single user mode before copying or 
unmounting var.
But from your prompt, I understand you are still running full multiuser, 
and of course, /var will not unmount then.
Remount /usr and issue the command:

shutdown now


to switch to single user mode. You need console access for this, do not 
attempt it remotely (unless you have a serial console) !
Then continue from the point you copy the data using the tar command. If 
you have already copied data from /var to the new partition, this may 
well be stale since /var was in use. You may wish to newfs the new 
partition again in this case.

there are no "raid hardware" on most devices. it's just marketing hype. 
actually there is not much need to have it for RAID-0/1/10 where there is 
almostnothing to process.

erase the whole drive.

and next time don't use "hardware" RAID anymore. use gmirror and gstripe 
to have PORTABLE RAID.

That kind of information is usually stored last on the disk (where it is
least likely to be overwritten by filesystems, partitioning info, or boot
loaders), so if you overwrite the last couple of KBs on those disks you will
probably be fine.
(If you want to be certain you can always use 'dd' to nuke all the
information on the disk.  That will take longer time, but you get the extra
advantage of testing all the blocks on the disk so that they work
correctly.)

For the first you could do something like:
 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad1 bs=1m skip=76318
which should overwrite the last MB of ad1 with zeros.

To erase all of the disk:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad1 bs=1m

Most (cheap) RAID controllers do almost everything in software. Some do have
hardware support.

For mirrors it can actually be a big win with hardware support.
If you use software RAID then you will have to perform each write twice
(once to each disk), while with hardware support for RAID you only need
to transfer the data once.  If the controller resides on a PCI-bus together
with several other devices (which is not uncommon) then the reduced
bandwidth usage can be very useful.

(And for RAID you will need at least some support on the controller
if you want to be able to boot from a striped volume.)

I recently removed one pair of disks from a windows "hardware :)" RAID 
controller, and upon inserting it into a newly built FreeBSD system, it 
was immediately detected by the ar driver, and messages started coming 
in, like in your case. Although I ended up removing the ar device from 
the kernel (I was going to use gmirror), I found out that there is 
possibly another way to make the disks forget about their previous 
RAID-life:

atacontrol delete ar0

Have a look at man atacontrol. I have not tried it, but it is probably

which saves at most 100MB/s bandwidth - compare this to 5-10GB/s in modern 
machines.

true. but not if it's builtin in chipset or on PCI express.


there are really not worth price. unless you need RAID-5.

but with todays disk prices it's better to just use RAID-1+0 and bigger 
drives.

with software RAID you are not forced to operate on whole disks. usually 
not everything has to be mirrored.

is there actually any difference in ar and gmirror/gstripe except that ar

You might be able to use telnet to open a connection to Google's SMTP  
servers, and paste the entire message, headers included, into the  
transmission. You'd have to know how to manually use SMTP and hope  
that Google accepts email from your machine. You could also look into  
writing a script in (Perl or Python would be good) to allow you to do  
it yourself, so you would have control over most of the headers.

I've gone from using CAT5 to 802.11g for my laptop's network connectivity
while I'm at home.  Unfortunately, since I've done so, my connection
drops from time to time, and I usually don't notice for a while.  The
period between drops does not seem to be constant, however, as I lost my
connection at some point yesterday without noticing, but when I did
notice I reestablished contact, then lost my connection again a few
minutes later.  The connection has not dropped again since then, however.

I'm using an Intel 2200BG adapter (Centrino chipset) with WPA encryption
and the wpa_supplicant connection manager.  My wpa_supplicant.conf:

  ctrl_interface=3D/var/run/wpa_supplicant
  ctrl_interface_group=3Dwheel

  # netwerk
  network=3D{
    ssid=3D"netwerk"
    psk=3D"ssdpbwqaougj6hr9"
  }

(PSK changed to protect the guilty)

When the connection drops, I get the following in /var/log/messages:

  Jun  9 23:14:21 hostname kernel: iwi0: link state changed to DOWN
  Jun  9 23:14:28 hostname kernel: iwi0: scan stuck
  Jun  9 23:14:34 hostname kernel: iwi0: could not allocate firmware DMA
  memory

(watch the line wrap)

In case it isn't obvious, "iwi0" is my wireless interface.

All /va/log/dmesg seems to show is this:

  iwi0: link state changed to DOWN
  iwi0: scan stuck

Any ideas on where to go from here would be appreciated.  Is this a
driver bug, or am I doing something wrong?  Another (effectively
identical) laptop running Debian does not have this problem.

I've used gmirror on several occasions, and it works well for me. I have 
never used ar, but as I understand this is limited to ata disks (hence 
ar=atapi raid). The geom framework probably provides a lot more features 
and is not limited the way ar is. I would not mind using ar in this 
particular system, but I moved disks one by one, erasing the first one 
(ar was still complaining about the other one missing after I erased it) 
and when I later added the second one, I got a kernel panic. Mind you, 
the ar "signature" or whatever was written in a windows system and may 
not have been exactly compatible. I removed ar from the kernel and 
continued with my usual gmirror stuff (which works flawlessly)

My preferred firewall these days, for general use, is pf.  I seem to
recall someone who has used it in high-load scenarios that it can kinda
choke at high loads, though I don't recall whether that was due to pf
itself or the fact he was running it on OpenBSD.  Until now, this has not
been a concern for me.

I may be getting involved in a commercial project in the near future that
could very well involve handling very large numbers of connections
dealing with potentially high bandwidth demands, however.  The
circumstances would require some QOS, and I'm thinking of using pf/ALTQ
for this project, but I don't want to discover after we're well underway
that large numbers of connections would cause problems.  Should I
consider ipfw or ipfilter instead, or are my concerns with relation to
pf's ability to handle extremely high loads of legitimate traffic
unfounded?

Post:

# ifconfig -a
# netstat -na | grep 53

Looks like named may be listening publicly on IPv6, but then refusing 
the requests.

Is dns.tensor.gdynia.pl the same box as wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl? Did you 
make any addressing changes around the time you started noticing this?

Did you switch to single user-mode (shutdown now) before trying to
umount /var? If you did, there may be some other process still using
files/dirs in "/var". If you have lsof installed
(/usr/ports/sysutils/lsof), you can identify (as root) which process
still using stuff in /var:

Stop the processes (dhclient, devd, syslogd, etc.) that still use /var

I have gotten several messages on this list from an Andrew Barry which
Lookout cannot open. The error message is "Can't open this item. Your
Digital ID name can not be found by the underlying security system." Can
anyone tell me what is causing this?

Thank you,

Hello.

I'm running FreeBSD 6.1 on an old compac server.

The server has a SCSI controller (if I'm not wrong is
the Compaq SMART 3200 Controller) that at times I'd like
to check if the status is still ok or somehow degraded.

The OS is accessing it using the ida driver.

Do anybody know how to achive it?

Thank you in advance.

I typically sign my messages with S/Mime:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME

It means that not only can my message be verified by nearly every  
client, but messages can be easily encrypted to me as well (since the  
public key is included in the signature). Usually this works fine with  
Mailman and other mailing lists; the worst I've seen is that  
Sourceforge will mangle the text adding their advertisement,  
invalidating the signature. Other software tends to add footers as a  
separate MIME part.

Looking in the source of one of my previous messages, I see that the  
following header is set, but that the corresponding signature  
attachment has been stripped:

Content-Type: multipart/signed; boundary=Apple-Mail-117-728128490;  
micalg=sha1;
	protocol="application/pkcs7-signature"

Perhaps your mail client is picking up on this header and  
misinterpreting it? What mail client are you using?

Because your computer is reachable on either

dns.tensor.gdynia.pl.   10800   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101::1

or

dns2.tensor.gdynia.pl.  10732   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101:1::2

and that pesky set of parent zone DNS servers insists on handing those 
addresses out in NS records?

Aha, found the matching log entries on my side:

Hmmm...different IP address.   Hmmm..... Hey, what about you look at 
what bilbo.nask.org.pl. is returning when asked for your nameservers:

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:

dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl.  28800   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101:2::1

Inconsistent from some of your other parents.  Might want to clean up a 
bit.  ;-)

I am running a FreeBSD 7.0 system and I'm having the hardest time trying
to get java to work (I'm sure this has been brought up before - but a
google search did not reveal anything). My problem is that I can't find
the JDK US DST Timezone Update Tool - 1.3.0 that it mentions on the
build (/usr/ports/java/diablo-jre15). I've looked on the Java Sun website,
and they don't have the correct version, it seems they have a newer one.
Would this still work??

    Thanks,

Camilo

I don't see any posts with that name in this list. Could they be spam?

AFAIK all the ports that depend on gettext were version-bumped, so it's
not essential to force the upgrade. In other words you can just update
those ports that are still out-of-date -just like any other update.

It's rather easier and quite a lot less risky to simply do:

   # atacontrol delete ar0

I've installed the diablo-jre15 port two days ago (on the 8th). I 
downloaded this:

 tzupdater-1_3_5-2008b.zip

And the version of the port is:

diablo-jre-1.5.0.07.01_10

Have you used csup/portsnap to update your ports tree? You might be 
trying to compile an older version.

pf will perform very well.  I don't know if anyone has benchmarked it
against ipfw, but I suspect that any difference in performance is pretty
minimal.  If you're just doing packet filtering and using a fairly run of=

the mill modern machine, you should be able to keep up with Gb wire speed=

without problems.

If performance is a limiting factor, then review your rule sets carefully=
:
arranging things so that the most popular traffic types are handled as=20
early as possible, knowing when to use tables vs. use address-list macros=
=20
and judicious use of quick rules can make quite a difference.

Also, /stateful/ rules are generally faster than stateless once you've go=
t
beyond the initial packet that establishes the state.  Looking stuff up
in the state table is quicker and takes place earlier in the processing=20
sequence than traversing the rulesets.

High load may or may not be a problem depending on your traffic patterns.=

I've seen pf firewalls suffer by running out of state-table space in
situations where there are a lot of fairly short-lived but low volume
network connections.  The default is 10,000 states.  If your firewall=20
machine  is dedicated to running pf and it has hundreds of MB if not GB o=
f=20
RAM, then upping the size of some of those parameters by an order of=20
magnitude is feasible, and works well.

On the whole I'd go with pf every time simply based on how much more
manageable it is compared to ipfw -- you have to try, hard, to lock
yourself out when reloading a new pf ruleset.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Apparently Outlook thinks the message is encrypted, and it can't find your 
private key to decrypt it.  Considering the tons of problems we have with 
encryption here, I'm not surprised.

Andrew,

I have Outlook/Office 2003 SP3 with an Exchange server. Unfortunately,
that means I do not have access to the raw messages, nor can I look at
the full set of footers. Someone suggested your signature may be getting
mangled by the listserve. Another reply said they have never seen any of
your messages, so their SPAM filter appears to be blocking you.

I typically sign my messages with S/Mime:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME

It means that not only can my message be verified by nearly every =20
client, but messages can be easily encrypted to me as well (since the =20
public key is included in the signature). Usually this works fine with =20
Mailman and other mailing lists; the worst I've seen is that =20
Sourceforge will mangle the text adding their advertisement, =20
invalidating the signature. Other software tends to add footers as a =20
separate MIME part.

Looking in the source of one of my previous messages, I see that the =20
following header is set, but that the corresponding signature =20
attachment has been stripped:

Content-Type: multipart/signed; boundary=3DApple-Mail-117-728128490; =20
micalg=3Dsha1;
	protocol=3D"application/pkcs7-signature"

Perhaps your mail client is picking up on this header and =20
misinterpreting it? What mail client are you using?

The message that Andrew sent in response to you did not have a digital 
signature on it.  I don't know if that means it was stripped by the list 
software or he didn't sign the message.

Andrew, maybe you could send a signed message, state in the body that it was 
signed, and then I can look at the headers and tell you what's going on.

In this instance, firefox is simply saving the stream of data from the 
server, and giving it a name that matches the last path component in the 
URL (in this case, video.cgi). The format of the file is not likely to 
be understood by anything other than firefox (at least, as I've found), 
as it is most likely a multipart/mime-encoded file containing a sequence 
of images, like from an internet-enabled webcam.

Your best bet, if this is the case, is to use a mime parser to extract 
each of the individual pictures from the file, then use a proper video 
encoder to glue them together with the appropriate metadata to allow 
video players to understand them. Mplayer's mencoder can do so, and can 
even encode to MJPEG, for little to no loss in quality; although you may 
have issues choosing a proper framerate, as mime-based image streaming 
isn't always stable.

I've been sent a vCalendar file via email.  I use mutt as my mail user
agent, and am not terribly interested in switching to mail/claws-mail
just so I can read this vCalendar file (generated in MS Outlook).

Is there some command line tool that will create a readable text file
from this, a Mutt extension that can handle it, or anything along those
lines, in Ports?  What are my options, besides just deleting all the
vCalendar markup cruft by hand (or writing a script to do it for me)?

I have linux-firefox-2.0.0.14 installed.
I also downloaded install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz from Adobe site, 
unpacked and placed libflashplayer.so into:
/usr/local/lib/linux-firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so

But firefox (/usr/local/bin/linux-firefox) doesn't pick it up and flash 
sites don't work.

How to make Flash plugin work?

I recall on Linux it's enough to just drop libflashplayer.so into 
plugins directory somewhere under lib and it works.

Hi Andrew, Nejc, All

I just built my first FreeBSD 7.0 machine to test OpenVPN on it
It was a nice way to review/fix my OpenVPN page

I forgot to stress how important the sysctl setting is for net.inet.ip.forw=
arding

The default is disabled (0) and I to could not connect beyond the OpenVPN s=
erver=20

I'm editing the page now to include something like this

Make sure IP Forwarding is enabled
Check it with
sysctl -a |grep net.inet.ip.f

Set it with
sysctl inet.inet.ip.forwarding=3D1
or
Alternatively set it by adding this to /etc/sysctl.conf
net.inet.ip.forwarding=3D1

I hope this helps

Take care

Steve=0A=0A=0A

You do not normally have that much bandwidth even in a modern machine.
Typical bandwidth for the northbridge/southbridge connection is 1-2 GB/s
for most machines sold today. (For example just about all machines with
a recent Intel desktop chipset. The connection between north- and south-bridge
on those is equivalent to a PCI-E x4 connection (which provides 1GB/s in each
direction.))
And that is for modern machines. Older ones have even less bandwidth
available.

PCI-E controller cards are still fairly uncommon, and many of them 
require a x4 or x8 slot, while most motherboards only have x1 slots
(apart from the x16 slot intended for a graphics card.)
(And PCI-express is still fairly new, so there are lots of computers
in use that do not have any PCI-E slots at all.)

If you go back just a few years you will find that chipset itself
provides only two IDE-channels and nothing more.
Any other devices reside on a single PCI-bus (which provides a total
bandwidth of 133MB/s.)

That depends on what your goals are, and what constraints you operate under.
RAID 10 is nice, but it requires more disks then RAID5. Extra disks create
extra noise and require more power and generate more heat and (most
importantly) require extra space.  There are a limited amount of space
available in most computer cases, which might not be able to accomodate
the extra disks needed for RAID10.

If you have reason to use mirroring at all, then I would say that just about
everything should be mirrored.
(RAID is in no way a substitute for backups.  The main reason for using RAID
is either performance (which is often better served by several independent
disks anyway) or to minimise downtime.  If some parts of your disks are not
mirrored then you be able to avoid that downtime anyway.)

Well, it dropped a few more times today -- but I seem to have found a
problem (with the help of ##FreeBSD on irc) that is related:

  http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D102760

It seems the mystery has been solved.  Now I just have to get the fixed
driver.

I disabled signing when sending that message, just so my response  
could be read. I'll send a message in a second with signing enabled.  
I've never noticed anyone having problems with digital signatures in  
other mailing lists I'm on, but it's possible that no one has bothered  
to say anything.

If you just need to read it, then open it up in a text editor.  
vCalendar / iCalendar markup is pretty simple. Virtually any  
calendaring app should be able to read the file, including Mozilla  
Sunbird, Evolution, Kontact, and so on. There are also web calendars  
such as Webcalendar in ports, or you could just use Google Calendar.

If the sender is expecting a vCal file back to confirm / deny the  
appointment, then you'll need to make sure that you send back a valid  
file.

I have seen many posts and articles floating around that deals with 
this issue, so id like to know how to get around it, without the need 
to disable legacy support?

amt my only work around is disabling legacy support, unplugging ALL 
USB devices then FreeBSD not only installs without causing a panic as 
well as runs, but it detects all the USB devices AFTER boot has been 
done, how ever X dosent seem to want to recognise it.

There other issues, however with having to swap from 1 comp to 
another running from FreeBSD, i have no ability to paste dmesg or 
anything like that.

ports & world are upto date as of 2 days ago .. however i am unable 
to configure the kernel, so its using factory defaults that came with 
6.3-RELEASE a few mnths ago .. issues with that are related to 
various options not beign able to determine size.

I understand a lot of this is vague, but more information can be 
provided if needs be.

There's no sig attached, so it's getting stripped off somewhere.
This line in the headers looks to be the culprit:
X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5

That will strip all attachments, including S/MIME.

The easiest way to deal with this is to disable IPv6 on your kernel.
There is a good guide here:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html.

Simply comment out the 'options INET6' line from your config file. Also,
you could give more information on what application is generating those
logs. For example, what services are you running? Is this setup as a
server? And things of that sort.

quick question I can't seem to figure out
I have a FreeBSD 7 computer and I am having trouble with dhclient

here is my setup

Ethernet cable directly from fxp0 to a DSL Modem(that serves 192.168.0.x via
DHCP)
A wireless card(ral0) in hostap mode it has a static ip of 192.168.1.1. I
have dhcpd running and configured to listen on ral0 interface. it is
supposed to had out DHCP(192.168.1.x) to wifi clients.

fxp0 needs to use dhclient to obtain a IP from the DSL modem
the problem is, if I run dhclient fxp0, I get a reply from the ral0 dhcpd
server.
how do I tell fxp0 to forget about ral0 and listen for the DSL modem's dhcp
server ?

isn't there some quick dhclient.conf setting?

man dhclient.conf suggests you should use:

	reject 192.168.1.1;

Hope this helps

My PGP signatures seem to come through just fine, however.

I find the way it's formatted difficult to parse, particularly when it's
a relatively long and complex file.

I just finished using Perl to create a (better formatted) plain text
version of the file -- and that worked for this one instance.  It seems
odd to me that there isn't a widely distributed console-based program
that can be used to clean up vCalendar files, though.

I'll have to repartition my 6.3 notebook anyway.  Can you remind me
which filesystems I can have background fsck on? My current single
filesystem install checks it in foreground.

If I have a separate /boot, would / be background fscked?

Or is the root filesystem always foreground checked?

Thanks
	Martin

I certainly don't get background fsck as-is, never.

Maybe there's something wrong with this fstab line?
/dev/ad0s1a     /                       ufs     rw              1 1

That's the only filesystem in that machine.

Thanks

fsck_ffs(8):

To be eligible for background cleaning it must have been running
with soft updates, not have been marked as needing a foreground
check, and be mounted and writable when the background check is
to be done.  If these conditions are met, then fsck_ffs exits
with a zero exit status.  Otherwise it exits with a non-zero exit
status.  If the file system is clean, it will exit with a non-
zero exit status so that the clean status of the file system can
be verified and reported during the foreground checks.

Actually, I tracked down the guy who had originally given a poor review
of pf performance, and it turns out that the missing part of his review
was related to use of dummynet for bandwidth management.  Since I'm not
planning to use dummynet for bandwidth management, that's not really a
factor we need to consider.  It looks like, at this point, pf is a good
choice.

Thanks for the further elaboration.  I'll keep all this in mind as I
investigate the suitability of pf for this project.

Just one more reason pf is my favorite firewall.

Thanks for the informative reply.

By the way, apologies if this doesn't thread properly.  I never got any
messages from this thread in my inbox, and had to copy everything from
the archive:

  http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-June/176542.html

For some reason, mutt doesn't seem to want me to alter headers to make it
thread properly, and keeps throwing away my edits.

this slot is usable for anything.
i always take some old PCI card for free for servers. as they don't need 
graphics anyway.


on my 8-disk server i could get 95MB/s from EACH of 8 drives in parallel, 
still having minimal system load.

it isn't anything expensive, quite cheap gigabyte motherboard with core2 
duo and 2GB RAM

anything except / can be.

actually - i turn background_fsck off. it's better to check filesystems at 
start and be sure system runs clean. unless you have crashes everyday ;(

it would be good to check out ipfw. at least it's IMHO much cleaner and 
easier to make rules i need, but it is fast.

but please check, i don't have any side-to-side comparision.
of course it depends how you rules are complicated and how good/bad you 
will define them.

is there a way to check on running system how much CPU time is used to 
perform firewalling/traffic manager - be it pf or ipfw?

Yes it did.  And it appears that this is the reason:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1;
	protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="H1spWtNR+x+ondvy"
Content-Disposition: inline

Andrew's is like this:
Content-Type: multipart/signed; boundary=Apple-Mail-1-746495031; micalg=sha1;
	protocol="application/pkcs7-signature"
Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v924)

X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5

Notice that his was processed through MIMEDefang twice and then Content 
Filtered by Mailman.  Also, his content type is 
protocol="application/pkcs7-signature" whereas yours is 
"application/pgp-signature".

There's also no Content-Disposition: line in Andrew's email headers, so it's 
possible that absence of that line makes a difference as well.

By default, it appears that Mailman does not do content filtering.  It also has 
pass rules (if filtering is enabled) for multipart/mixed, multipart/alternative 
and text/plain.  So, it's possible that MIMEDefang is the culprit instead.

is this state-table a hash table or something similar. if so - making it 
much bigger than CPU cache may actually slow down things because DRAM

i already learned well locking myself after making mistake in ipfw rules

now i run screen and do something like that

cd /etc
cp firewall firewall.old
cp firewall firewall.new
<edit> firewall.new
cp firewall.new firewall;/etc/rc.d/ipfw restart;sleep 100;cp firewall.old firewall;/etc/rc.d/ipfw restart

then i have 100 seconds to quickly test new rules, at least to make sure 
i'm not locked.

Did you switch to single user-mode (shutdown now) before trying to
umount /var? If you did, there may be some other process still using
files/dirs in "/var". If you have lsof installed
(/usr/ports/sysutils/lsof), you can identify (as root) which process
still using stuff in /var:

santafe# lsof +D /var/
COMMAND    PID  USER   FD   TYPE     DEVICE SIZE/OFF     NODE NAME
dhclient   321 _dhcp  cwd   VDIR      0,100      512 14578696 /var/empty
dhclient   321 _dhcp  rtd   VDIR      0,100      512 14578696 /var/empty
dhclient   321 _dhcp  jld   VDIR      0,100      512 14578696 /var/empty
dhclient   321 _dhcp    6w  VREG      0,100     1007 14582324
/var/db/dhclient.leases.msk0
devd       537  root    4u  unix 0xc6a78188      0t0
/var/run/devd.pipe
devd       537  root    5w  VREG      0,100        3 14580313
/var/run/devd.pid
syslogd    603  root    3w  VREG      0,100        3 14580315
/var/run/syslog.pid
syslogd    603  root    4u  unix 0xc6a84310      0t0
/var/run/log
syslogd    603  root    5u  unix 0xc6a84188      0t0
/var/run/logpriv
...

Stop the processes (dhclient, devd, syslogd, etc.) that still use /var
and then try to umount it again.

Hope this helps - Tobias

Do a netstat -na | grep 53. This will help. Something is wrong with your 
setup if you are seeing undesirable results.

A couple of questions... are you using ONLY /64 prefixes? Whether they 
do or not, do:

2001:4070:101:1:: and 2001:4070:101:2::

...share a common physical local link? What flags of Neighbor Discovery 
are enabled on the devices on this link, and what on-link prefixes do 
you see (ndp -i interface, ndp -p)?

This:

Jun 10 17:13:50 wojtek named[909]: client 
2610:130:101:100:214:22ff:fe12:241#60282: query (cache) 
'wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl/MX/IN' denied

...is someone within the 'Iowa Communications Network' trying to find an 
MX for what appears to be your workstation/mail server, by targeting 
your workstation directly for the DNS lookup.

I don't have time to go research it myself right now, but do you use a 
registrar that provides IPv6 glue? What does your zone file state for NS 
servers? Do you have a rogue NS server on your network that was for 
development that got left on, and could be supplying incorrect results?

It is very difficult to identify where this is broken if you don't 
respond with suggested output.

Understood; I already answered that question in the negative in my 
original e-mail in the part you trimmed out.

Your computer is at 2001:4070:101:2::1, just like I said.

As a bonus I told you which parent to your DNS zone is handing out a 
glue record for which nameserver with that address in it.

Get in touch with the people who run that nameserver and ask them, 
pretty please, to make the delegation records for your zone look just 
like the records at the other parent nameservers.

Really, go read my entire original message.  All the way to the end. 
Actually look at all the IP addresses.  Particularly the one from my log 
messages which I remark on with a "Hmmm...different IP address."

Also realize, please, given your track record of telling people that 
what they're saying on this list is "nonsense" and "just marketing hype" 
and on and on, it really is rather strange for you to expect somebody to 
answer your beginner-level questions in nice, easy, beginner-level 
steps.  Mind, I have no problem with your asking the question.  Lord 
knows that I come up with some dumb questions of my own sometimes.  But 
you do set yourself up as the all knowing expert on just about 
everything, so don't be surprised if people expect you to have some clue 
about what you're doing and capable of figuring out what dig output with 
the bad records in it means.

Nameservers are hitting an address of yours.  Therefore something is 
probably handing out your address.  Somebody (that would be me) has 
looked up the address in question and even looked up the nameserver 
which is handing out that address in a glue record.  All you do is get 
petulant about how the answer to what turns out to be a rhetorical 
question is, "no."  D'oh; which I certainly hope translates properly.

	thanks for the url, bob.  i'll pull it up next time i use a 
	gui mailer.  wiki would let us edit things.  IIRC.  but it may
	be over-kill too.

	i checked out what was, i believe, "plone" last week.  i don't
	remember seeing plone on the opencma list.   

	(still chewing it over with my fellow writers.    unfortunately,
	none is a techno-geek.)   i believe you that dokuwiki was easy
	to set up.   how easy is/was it to *use*, tho?  ---I'm following
	the gimp tutorial, but still cannot get anything to work.  
	so if there are docs for this wiki software, they've got to be 
	fairly well tested.

	gary

In summary, what he means is this:

You have a (perhaps legacy) DNS server running as dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl 
(RRs snipped for brevity):

pearl# dig aaaa dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl
dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl.  21682   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101:2::1

...which appears to be the same IP address as your workstation.

pearl# dig AAAA wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl
wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl. 4732   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101:2::1

...however, any attempt to gather information from dns3. simply fails, 
due to your administrative policy (named not allowing outside networks).

I'm willing to bet that you will see attempts from 2607:f118::b6 (or 
::b7) in your workstation logs as rejected for AAAA lookups.

I don't see any reference to dns3. in the WHOIS, so perhaps it has been 
removed recently.

Any provider who still has this dns3 server listed as a possible 
authoritative name server may round-robin to it and produce the logs on 
your workstation you are witnessing. It is very possible that this 
server is still listed as a NS for the domain and I just didn't look 
hard enough for it.

FYI (IMHO), this type of question would be better suited for 
freebsd-net@. You would likely have far more eyes on your question over 
there by people who focus primarily on this sort of thing.

One of my freebsd 6.3 boxes is crashing and when it reboots, it comes
up in single user mode.  Unfortunately, it's a remote box and I don't
have access to a history of the console and there's nothing in
/var/log/messages.  I think it's a hardware problem, or at least it
seems to be.  It's as if it's a bad power supply.

Anyway, what I'd like to know, where is the fsck that is done at
reboot such that I can modify it to do an fsck -y?  Some people will
argue this is dangerous, but I'm not sure what else one would do.  The
goal is to make it reboot without intervention.

I think it's just a matter of turning-on soft-updates for the root
partition, which is sensible anyway if it's large.

AFAIK soft-updates are off by default for / because there's no
benefit in the standard install, and because snapshots can cause
problems with installworld on very small partitions.

Hi all,

Two questions:
1) Is it possible to determine the date a port/package is installed?
2) How can I delete all the ports/packages installed after a certain date?

Thanks a lot :)

There are some instructions how you can get the Flashplayer running. Not perfect, but it will do in many cases.

ls -ld /var/db/pkg/<port>, use the mtime of the directory.

Use a combination of find with the -mtime flag, and pkg_delete.

Uh, in this case, no it won't.  A DNS server can contain and serve
IPv6 RR types even if it has absolutely no IPv6 connectivity itself.
What the log file shows are attempts to look up A and AAAA records.
It happens that the machine being queried and the machine doing the
querying could connect via IPv6, but that wasn't what the OP was
complaining about.

Honestly, this unthinking reflex advice to "turn off IPv6" is getting
really tired, and it is not helpful.  IPv6 is a fact of life.  IPv4
address space is rapidly running out -- there's about 3 years worth to
go.  See this report, for instance:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-55/presentations/huston-ipv4.pdf

If you aren't IPv6 ready and capable real soon now, then you're going
to find it increasingly hard to cope on the Internet.  On the other hand:=

remember the Y2K feeding frenzy at the end of the 90's?  There's going
to be a similar scramble to switch to IPv6 and people with the requisite
skills are going to be in demand...

	Cheers,

	Matthew

X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 06:00:37 -0000


I have one main server and several slave machines. All machines are running
FreeBSD 7.0. I have done a csup to my server and have done a
'portsupgrade -ap' to build and install my current selection of ports on the
server. This proceedure also creates the packages in /usr/ports/packages/All.
I would now like to sync my other machines using the packages found on this
server. Each slave machine has a skeleton of the ports tree.

Reading the portinstall doco I thought I could do something like:

# setenv PKG_SITES "http://myhost/packages/"
# portupgrade -avPP
--->  Session started at: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:35:31 +0000
** None has been installed or upgraded.
--->  Session ended at: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:35:41 +0000 (consumed 00:00:10)

I can see that there are packages out of date but I am not sure how to tell
the ports/packages environment what to do. Do I need to do a csup on all
my slave machines. If so they may be out of sync with the master that I
may have processed a week before (for testing).

What is the correct proceedure for keeping packages in sync with a master
repository without the need to rebuild each port on each machine.

Note:
I am able to do a 'portinstall -PPR packagename' on a slave machine to
retrieve a new package so I know that the PKG_SITES is correct and working.

Note that I'm replying to a digest message so a) threading is screwed
and b) I don't see full headers of individual messages, but this shows
that your message hit the digest without attachment, and others report
no attachment seen in list mail either, as this reply by Paul shows:

However, what normally happens to attachments to questions@, at least to
digests, is that they get stripped with a note pointing to the original
attachment, as this subsequent message from Chad illustrates:

Note Content-type: possibly modified from original? ..

So Andrew, there's something different about your particular S/MIME
attachments I guess.  Another illustration from an earlier digest:

Dunno if that helps, but your Mac gadget seems to work differently ..

1. Please don't cross-post.
2. ls -lt /var/db/pkg/*/+DESC piped to whatever language you want to
analyze the dates will provide you the result you want, _unless_
either you modified the file(s)

If you have bsnmpd configured to load bsnmp-ucd module, you can use 'ucd/net
SNMP Host' template in cacti to monitor la, memory and cpu statistics. Graph
templates are:

ucd/net - CPU Usage
ucd/net - Load Average
ucd/net - Memory Usage

Hello,

Excuse me my ignorance. Is there a utility in FreeBSD that would allow 
me to generate random passwords without actually creating any accounts 
or modifying existing ones? I am looking for something to allow me to 
generate a random string of characters. I know I can randomly hit the 
keyboard but if anything like that exists, many thanks for your advice. :)

Best regards,

A simple problem EASILY solved.

Why bother the owner of the misconfigured nameserver?

Instead, simply insert a wildcard record to your namesever
that hands out the IP number of the nastiest porno site you
can find to any DNS query.

After a few days the owners of the misconfigured nameservers
or clients will go hunting for whatever is poisoning their cache.

Problem solved.

Not really.  This is a bit dangerous.

The dangerous part is "the mtime of the directory".  It would be much
better to use the mtime of the +CONTENTS file, since it never changes
*after* the package has been installed.

It is possible, though not certain, that the mtime of the directory may
change if another package is installed later which depends on this one -
pkg_add(1) then updates some files, most notably +REQUIRED_BY, to
reflect the new dependency, so that pkg_delete(1) may warn you later if
you try to delete something that other packages depend on.  Of course,
the part with "the mtime of the directory may change" depends a bit on
the filesystem used, but I find it easier to just rely on the +CONTENTS
file that I'm sure should never change - unless I edit it by hand, but
then all bets are off :)

Novembre, you might want to try something like:

# Change the working directory for easier path handling
cd /var/db/pkg

# Create a temporary file with the modification time set to the date
# that you want to examine (in this case, May 15, 2008, 11:00am)
touch -t 200805151100 /tmp/stamp

# Find all +CONTENTS files that have a modification time later than that
# of the "stamp" file
find . -type f -name '+CONTENTS' -mnewer /tmp/stamp

# Extend the previous command - get only the second component of the
# file path, which is the name of the package directory, which coincides
# with the name of the package :)
find . -type f -name '+CONTENTS' -mnewer /tmp/stamp | cut -d/ -f2

That should give you a list; you may redirect it to a file or, if you
are feeling really adventurous, just pipe it to | xargs pkg_delete :)

G'luck,
Peter

apg[1] could do the trick, it could generate different kind of
passwords, eiher pronounceable or unpronounceable.

That's a common problem I have, and most of the times I was on relying
on BASH's $RANDOM. Just thought of this:
sed -n 's/[^a-zA-Z0-9~`!@#$%^&*()_+=-|\]//g; /^\(.\{10\}\).*/{ s//\1/p; q; }; b' /dev/urandom

Hey,

I guess "more proper" way of doing this is adding:

gateway_enable="YES"

into /etc/rc.conf? I don't have any sysctl custom configuration in my sysctl.conf
and OpenVPN still works (I have gateway_enable in my rc.conf, of course).

Bye,
Nejc

Woj, another of the few joys of -digests: two birds with one stone:

Sure, compare ping times / traffic throughput with firewall turned off
and on?  I recall that a FreeBSD 2.2.6 P166 with about 1000 ipfw rules
added up to ~2ms to ping times through - on a local 10Mbps network :)

There was some discussion of the efficiency of ipfw stateful rules in
recent weeks, over on -net IIRC.  As someone else mentioned, that's the
place to be if you're interested in net stuff, and are prepared to sit
back and read some real expertise before saying too much for a while :)

ipfw hashes src.ip ^ dst.ip ^ src.port ^ dst.port for connections in a
default of 256 buckets, which is very fast when there are no collisions; 
duplicates however are added to a linked list, which gets slow if large,
such as for raw IP or ICMP where 'port' numbers = 0.  I'm not sure what
stateful rules really mean in those contexts anyway, but there was talk
of increasing both the (default) no. of buckets and maximum stetes kept,
the memory penalty being pretty insignificant on today's hardware. 

I tend to doubt that processor caching is an issue one way or the other.

Yeah that'll work, as suggested in the manual's example.

I also wouldn't mind seeing some proper empirical comparisons between
ipfw and pf.  Many of the reasons sometimes offered to prefer pf have
been addressed in ipfw more recently (like in-kernel NAT for 7.x) and
development of both is always ongoing, so it's still largely personal
preference.  I've been using ipfw for just over 10 years and am fairly
familiar with it, and there are plenty of options I've not yet tried. 

Anyone reading the handbook these days would think ipfw was deprecated,
and one day I hope to do a number on the ipfw section there; it contains
out and out factual errors, some misconceptions and poor examples, still
the author does declare his familiarity is otherwise, ipf as I recall.

BTW I'm not dissing pf in any way, I've just never tried it.  ipfw plus
dummynet has done everything well that I've needed to do so far, mostly
on networks smaller even than yours :)

cheers, Ian

that's funny because i have in my domain:

dns3                    A       213.192.74.1
dns3                    AAAA    2001:4070:101::1

not :2::1


tried my secondary dns - the same.


tried dig aaaa dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl from other server in poland - the 
same!

any idea where this :2::1 can be kept. nowhere on my machines for sure.

i did grep 2001:4070:101:2::1 /etc/namedb/*/* on both my primary and 
secondary dns - found only one position that defines 
wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl

nothing more.


asked polish telecom DNS to look how it look from outside, got this
dns3.tensor.gdynia.pl.  10800   IN      AAAA    2001:4070:101::1

which is OK.


as you get :2::1 - any idea why?

this will not measure CPU load but delays. delays are unnoticable and 
doesn't look like a problem.

root partition is always checked foreground. i would be possible to check

all OK, on port 53 my named is listening. it is used as cache-only DNS for 
my computer and few others.

yes i can just block out accesses from outside 2001:4070:101:2::/64 but i 
would like to know why they are asking at all!

yes i do.

2001:4070:101::/64 and 2001:4070:101:2::/64 are different subnets

Hi,

You must cvsup your ports tree before you execute the portupgrade. This 
way you make your system aware of the need of update.
In your case I asume it would be better to make your main server a cvs 
replica of the ports tree and use it for internal synchronization.

Regards,

Ivailo Tanusheff

Subject
Synchronizing packages on several machines from a repository







I have one main server and several slave machines. All machines are 
running
FreeBSD 7.0. I have done a csup to my server and have done a
'portsupgrade -ap' to build and install my current selection of ports on 
the
server. This proceedure also creates the packages in 
/usr/ports/packages/All.
I would now like to sync my other machines using the packages found on 
this
server. Each slave machine has a skeleton of the ports tree.

Reading the portinstall doco I thought I could do something like:

# setenv PKG_SITES "http://myhost/packages/"
# portupgrade -avPP
--->  Session started at: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:35:31 +0000
** None has been installed or upgraded.
--->  Session ended at: Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:35:41 +0000 (consumed 
00:00:10)

I can see that there are packages out of date but I am not sure how to 
tell
the ports/packages environment what to do. Do I need to do a csup on all
my slave machines. If so they may be out of sync with the master that I
may have processed a week before (for testing).

What is the correct proceedure for keeping packages in sync with a master
repository without the need to rebuild each port on each machine.

Note:
I am able to do a 'portinstall -PPR packagename' on a slave machine to
retrieve a new package so I know that the PKG_SITES is correct and 
working.

Hi,

You may put fsck_y_enable="YES"  in /etc/rc.conf  file.
The other option is to modify /etc/rc.d/fsck which is not so good 
approach.

system needing fsck at reboot, manual intervention necessary






One of my freebsd 6.3 boxes is crashing and when it reboots, it comes
up in single user mode.  Unfortunately, it's a remote box and I don't
have access to a history of the console and there's nothing in
/var/log/messages.  I think it's a hardware problem, or at least it
seems to be.  It's as if it's a bad power supply.

Anyway, what I'd like to know, where is the fsck that is done at
reboot such that I can modify it to do an fsck -y?  Some people will
argue this is dangerous, but I'm not sure what else one would do.  The
goal is to make it reboot without intervention.

Michael Grant

Hi all.

I'm trying to setup a hesiod/kerberos based domain. Kerberos works just 
fine but as for hesiod I can't understand what I need to do to make it work.

Originally I have created a sample zone 'ns.local':

$TTL 86400      ; 1 day
@       IN SOA server.local. hostmaster.server.local. (
         2008061101 3600    900     2419200 3600    )
;       Serial     Refresh Retry   Expire  Minimum
         IN NS  server.local.
         IN MX  0 server.local.

test.passwd     TXT "test:*:2001:2001::0:0:Test user:/home/test:/bin/tcsh"
2001.uid        CNAME test.passwd

test.group      TXT "test:*:2001:"
2001.gid        CNAME test.group

And used this configuration file:

rhs = local
lhs = hs
classes = IN

The hesinfo works with no problems:

# hesinfo test passwd
test:*:2001:2001::0:0:Test user:/home/test:/bin/tcsh

However finger stands that user test is uknown:

I'm using the following nsswitch.conf:

#
# nsswitch.conf(5) - name service switch configuration file
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/nsswitch.conf,v 1.1 2006/05/03 15:14:47 ume Exp $
#
group: compat
group_compat: dns
hosts: files dns
networks: files
passwd: compat
passwd_compat: dns
shells: files
services: compat
services_compat: dns
protocols: files
rpc: files

And I do have the +::::... lines in /etc/passwd and /etc/group.

I've tried to debug the cause of the error and it reveals that hesinfo 
and finger makes different lookups:

hesinfo:
client 127.0.0.1#62846: view internal: query:

I've searched the net for 'passwd-0' cause and tried to make something

Can anyone help me with hesiod configuration? Just a little sample of

I need to get something to run on x86 computers which do not contain 
math in hardware, and FreeBSD dropped non-math cpus long time ago. 
NetBSD did the same, so Linux seems to be the only possibility.

So, the question:

What is the linux distro which is closest to FreeBSD in terms of 
installation and use.  A linux with basic userland and ports(-like) 
system, and quick and easy install like FreeBSD ?

I don't think you will have much luck installing any modern linux distro 
on ancient hardware. In your case, I would consider running an older 
version of FreeBSD, like e.g. 4.11. This will work without a math 
co-processor. You can see the hardware notes here:

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.11R/hardware-i386.html

Download from ftp-archive, here:

ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.11

See also this very interesting post on minimum memory requirements for 
each FreeBSD version:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-doc/2006-August/011029.html

I have a 4.11 installed successfully on a 386 with 20Mb RAM.

You could also go with a Linux version specifically for old PCs, but 
better have a look at distrowatch.com for these.

There is no explicit fsck for the root partition. If you have
background-checking enabled there is a single call to "fsck -p -F" that
does foreground checking on filesystems in fstab that aren't eligible
for background-checking. AFAIK the sole reason that root is foreground
checked is that sysinstall doesn't set soft-updates on it.

I guess that imaginary distro is exactly what I want.
(thinks .... )  Would v7 of FreeBSD qualify?

Thanks a lot, it works.
There is no font path in the xorg.conf, and after I add them in, it comes out.
Another thing is, it did not recognize the "\ " to space, the " " will work.
The font line I am using is:
Aterm*font:             -bitstream-bitstream vera sans
mono-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1

Though the font seems a little bigger than I suppose, anyway, it works.

Sorry for replying later due to lot of work these days.

One way is to use the rand(1) command which comes with the base system
as a part of OpenSSL:

  [riemann:/usr/home/raghu]% openssl rand -base64 6
  1olqAkXG
  [riemann:/usr/home/raghu]% openssl rand -base64 9
  gO/9nTp5/SYa
  [riemann:/usr/home/raghu]% openssl rand -base64 6
  ib9SrIe2

Base64 encoding transforms every group of 3 octets to 4 encoded
characters, so `openssl rand -base64 3N' produces a string with 4N
encoded characters.  In case it is relevant, the generated strings are
made up of the 62 US-ASCII alphanumerical characters, `+', and `/'.

HTH,
Raghavendra.

+CONTENTS can change if you use a tool like portmaster or portupgrade 

If you have portupgrade installed, pkg_glob can list packages installed
before a specific date, so presumably pkg_deinstall can delete them
directly since it support package globs.

greetings all,

firstly, i am not subscribed, please cc: responces, appreciated.

i have been using freebsd v2.2.5-release (as my domains mx host
on a 486dx33 .. that was upgraded after 20 years running with 6
years on v2.2.5  to a p5-133 mhz into which i moved teh whole scsi
harddisk ssubsystem (card and drives) ther it ran v 2.2.5-r
faultlessly untill last january when i cleaned of teh hard
drives reformated averything and installed freebsd v6.2-release
!!

than after a few weeks of settling down and setting up every
thing worked well, as expected, then the sendmail nightmares
started ... basically the system could not send mail anywhere
!!!

cutting long story short, it was basically my having to relearn
teh whole universe .. there were more differences  than i had
planned for and it was an uphill battle relearning essentially
everything i had learned about freebsd over th previous ten
years.

about 3 weeks ago things started to make sence, herebouts,
slowly it is clearing up, as i started to understand sendmail
and getting teh configurations right .. most of teh poorly
configured hosts i've now cleaned up and are working properly,
but, one ...

i have now got one left and like teh linux chappie who i found
on google who had a similar "out of teh blue experience" like
mine, (about 2003) one day sendmail worked then teh veyr next it was
defereing everytingh .. just like here. this chappie had
replaced his nic, i've not done angthiny like that hppen here,
the machine is the machine and no hardware has been changed ??

i donot understand what is going on here .. i've included all
teh differnt bits in teh maillog file

here is teh /var/log/maillog exerpt

this last entry was the resutl of teh post test after adding

'SMART_HOST' 'mail.caamora.com.au'
in teh freebsd.mc/sendmail.mc and a 'make install' to cover all
bases.

i treied to restart teh mailqueue ... no luck .. grrr

 and then an entry into the mailertable

. esmpt:mail.caamora.com.au

again did the make whatever thingie and ... tried to post,
again this defered post business .. can't asign ..

there is something going on here that i donot understand ..
some enlightenment would be appreciated, please.

the few bits i found in yahoosearch engine, google resfuses me
access still but yahoo i can use. i looked uo the error message
and turned up this one endrt refereing to teh linux incedent, i
have a copy of bat book ed 1 it just says it exists, same for
smart_host mail_hub macros.

is there some way to fix this short of upgrading and mvoing to
postfix ?? i don't have teh needed stuff to do that just yet
(me and hardware issues)

it looks like i've missed somethings but i don't know enough
about freebsd v6.x to know even where to start to look for this
one .. aside from this  i have another v6.2 host that also was
doing the same thing but after i copied a working set of
sendmail configs and restarted sendmail it work properly except
teh it dosent forward the "charlie root" mail from teh
maintenece events (at 2 am. 3 am and 4 am from teh /etc/cron
events) the mail itesm just sit in teh /var/mail/root folder

it has taken me just under 6 mnths to get this far, i've come
to teh end of my rope and am seriously thinking of going back
to freebsd v2.2.5 ..

Paul,

The message you sent right after this one produced the same error in
Outlook as Andrew's.

Yes it did.  And it appears that this is the reason:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=3Dpgp-sha1;
	protocol=3D"application/pgp-signature";
boundary=3D"H1spWtNR+x+ondvy"
Content-Disposition: inline

Andrew's is like this:
Content-Type: multipart/signed; boundary=3DApple-Mail-1-746495031;
micalg=3Dsha1;
	protocol=3D"application/pkcs7-signature"
Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v924)

X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5

Notice that his was processed through MIMEDefang twice and then Content=20
Filtered by Mailman.  Also, his content type is=20
protocol=3D"application/pkcs7-signature" whereas yours is=20
"application/pgp-signature".

There's also no Content-Disposition: line in Andrew's email headers, so
it's=20
possible that absence of that line makes a difference as well.

By default, it appears that Mailman does not do content filtering.  It
also has=20
pass rules (if filtering is enabled) for multipart/mixed,
multipart/alternative=20
and text/plain.  So, it's possible that MIMEDefang is the culprit
instead.

you are right. sorry but i was sure my / partition on my laptop have soft

Hi Kemian,

I'm glad you got it working.

To change the size of the font, you want to change the the first 0 in
the line to the font size you require in pixels. E.g: I use:

-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-normal--16-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-15

for a 16px font. I like it big!

You can test it beforehand by using xfd (in ports if not already
installed) i.e:

$ xfd -fn "-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono\
-medium-r-normal--16-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-15"

Use iso8859-15 if you want € (the euro) in your character set.

No worries. I assumed you'd got it to work.

I find the mplayer plugin to be pretty unreliable - it sounds like it's
improved at lot by your description.

I've had a lot more success with konquerer and kmplayer with the xine
backend. There's also a firefox plugin provided by gxine which may be
worth a try, although it's never been as good as kmplayer in my
experience.

It actually does if you're using portupgrade (and probably
portmaster), see the @pkgdep entries.

Use +DESC, +COMMENT or +MTREE_DIRS instead.

Silly me, I've always believed that people setup nameservers because 
they want their resources to be found.  Having one the parents of your 
zone point to a random machine of yours, which you then use to serve 
crap records, strikes me as somewhat counterproductive.  And I really 
fail to see why whomever runs the parent zone would even notice.  So I 
rather suspect that the log messages which so traumatize Wojciech would 
continue.

Problem not solved.

Hi all,

I brought a new ThinkPad T61 for work, the hardware is as follows:

T7300(2GHz), 2GB RAM, 120GB 5400rpm HD, 15.4in 1680x1050 LCD, 128MB nVIDIA 
Quadro NVS 140M, CDRW/DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn(n-disabled), Bluetooth, Modem, 
1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure chip, Intel Turbo, 9c Li-Ion,

My current working involves scientific calculation and programming. I'm from a 
linux background(redhat, debian, ubuntu), but after some googling and 
comparison, I found FreeBSD more stable and I want to try FreeBSD.  I am tired 
of a dual-boot system, so I want to just install FreeBSD or another linux 
distribution(maybe ubuntu) on my notebook.

My questions are:
1) Can FreeBSD work well with my hardware? The display card, CDRW/DVDRW, 
wireless, Ethernet and battery managment are the most important.

2) I have read the FreeBSD Handbook. According to Chapter 10: Linux Binary 
Compatibility, it seems that FreeBSD lacks support of many commercial 
softwares such as MATLAB, Oracle, Mathematica. Is the linux binary 
compatibility stable enough for work ?

Thanks a lot.

use everywhere on x86 (everything moduled, all needed things in 
loader.conf).

i used qemu

results:

16MB RAM - boots without problems, no swapping at all
12MB - boots without problems, little bit swapping
10MB - boots without problems, more swapping, hanged after booting 
multiuser, before displaying login. probably out of kernel memory for 
consoles
10MB again - after turning of all consoles but the first, boots fine, 
somehow usable, but for routers should be OK.


then i made REALLY custom kernel. minimal but enough for a router.

was able to get down to 9MB.


so - on 12MB 486DX, FreeBSD 7 is useful system for routing, firewalling, 
small nameserver, general control etc.

with 16MB - swap is barely touched.

486DX machines with 8-16MB RAM and small (like 100-500MB) disks are for 
free here, ISA network cards too.

good to know they can run newest FreeBSD release!

I've run into similar experiences with other ports, and what I have
 done 
to get it to work is to deinstall the complaining port (in this
 instance 
libcdio), and let the original port install it as a dependency instead 
of doing a "make reinstall".

--------------

Im afraid this didnt work either--whether libcdio is installed or not
(and installing it seems to work fine), any other port that
requires it tells me that it is installed and need to be
make deinstalled and make reinstalled. Yet this doesnt work.

Is there any other brute-force way to get around this? This
is getting difficult.

Thanks again, everyone.

Jen

To the OP, if you go ahead with trying to use this 486 or older hw, 
consider the effort of maintaining the system.

Sure thing.  I know exactly why.  I keep telling you why.  You keep 
ignoring me.

Frankly, I'm beginning to suspect that you're only pretending that you 
know how DNS works.  You might want to research it a bit.

Basically, according to the root servers, pl has 8 nameservers, a-dns.pl 
through h-dns.pl.  They give different answers when asked about 
gdynia.pl and tensor.gdynia.pl

a:  returns set of 5, including bilbo.nask.org.pl, which then returns 
the dreaded address

b:  returns set of 5 for gdynia.pl, BUT WHEN ASKED ABOUT 
TENSOR.GDYNIA.PL returns your 3 nameservers, with the dreaded address in 
glue (unlike all the other pl TLD servers)

c:  like a

d:  like a

e:  like a

f:  like a

g:  like a

h:  like a but less additional information

So, obviously, not all paths lead to the bad address, but there are 
plenty that do.  Is this your fault?  I haven't the foggiest.  I would 
suggest you go and talk to your parents about why they're making you so 
unhappy.  :-)

Also Slackware has a rather Unix-like concept. The versions until 11 (if
I remember right) still run on the 2.4 kernel and have an option to
install without X11 and KDE and such. I still use it on a slow server,
it is easy to understand when you come from BSD-land.

Cheers

Oops, sorry, I was not specific enough:

FreeBSD 4 or older NetBSD are no go:

The computer I am doing this is not old, it is otherwise brand new, but 
it uses an embedded cpu, a 486 clone as SoC without math.  See 
www.compactpc.com.tw, eBOX 2300SX.  It is very low cost, runs on about 
3W of power with CF card as mass memory, 128M, 3 USB2, serials, sound, 
etc, it has VESA form factor so you can attach it behind many LCD 
displays, etc. They have beefier models, but this one is cheapest and 
uses least power, latter of which is the more critical requirement for us.

We would like to use it for certain control applications.  Linux works, 
has been tested, but requires patches (turn math emulation on, add 
support for built-in ethernet, bug workaround).

The problem with is that while FreeBSD 4 seemed to boot on it, it did 
not recognize any peripherals as they are new.  Old OS's are not really 
what we want, this is not one-off but volume product, it will be 
internet-connected so we need bugfixes and we need support for latest 
chipsets on 802.11 cards etc.

There is another similar CPU, even slower and less power consuming, I do 
not remember the part number, I think it was about 100 MHz 486 without 
math as well.  This was some manufacturer of microcontrollers.

It doesn't hurt.  My tests used \+ too, though after seeing yours I
tried with just '+' which works in tcsh anyway, unlike unescaped ';'

(It was Raphael actually, though I was replying to Bill's)

Right!  Of course for balance we have a 'left!' of out-there developers,
forever pushing envelopes, generating need for updates .. but we'd best
leave the stability vs progress politics to its playground on stable@ :)

Disabling things so the log messages stop and you can pretend all the 
brokenness has magically gone away is indeed the easiest solution 
sometimes.  It's rarely a good one, particularly for the long term. 
Anyway, the OP actually uses IPv6 on his network, so this is pretty much 
akin to suggesting that he turn off his computer to keep people from 
bothering it.

The log messages are from his DNS server; he uses it for resolving and 
some local stuff; the log entries are the result of queries from random 
machines being rejected; random machines are doing that since at least 
one of his parent nameservers is handing out the IPv6 address of his 
server against his wishes; eventually he'll realize this is actually the 
case; and maybe he'll be able to convince whomever runs the parent 
nameserver(s) to update the records for his zone.  (Just to cover the 
rest of your questions. :-)

There is an active group of folks using and maintaining Dokuwiki. That
link goes to their wiki where they are using it for documentation.
Access control is flexible, but optional. There was a new release in the
past month or so which included support for a WYSIWYG editor plug-in.
Without that, you do need to learn a few specific markup conventions,
but they were never very difficult. You can edit everything from your
browser. Footnotes, line-through deletion and other editing conventions
are supported. But the best part is the change tracking that is built
in. You can trace each and every change if you need to.

Good luck,

Bob McConnell

If FreeBSD runs on your new T61, you can install the Maxima port as a free
alternative to MATLAB and Mathematica. Maxima does symbolic math
and handles tensors. You can run Maxima code that proves that Einstein's
theory of relativity has a far-reaching logical inconsistancy in it
because the theory assumes torsion = 0 and curvature is nonzero.
Non-zero curvature implies torsion also is non-zero.

> $ dig @bilbo.nask.org.pl tensor.gdynia.pl ns

so something is broken with my registrar. as other dns'es reports only 2 
nameservers.

host -t ns tensor.gdynia.pl dns.task.gda.pl

reports 2 of them, and dns.task.gda.pl is main dns for gdynia.pl

thank you for finally explaining things

maintaning? while running netbsd 1.5, my routers don't need any 
maintaining. they just works. what maintaining? just make your config so 
logs won't fill the disk.

Well it's got a recent kernel, it's got Xorg 7.3 and it's got binary
package management but it hasn't got Adobe Flash ATM.

An Ubuntu user would be better pointed at PC-BSD or DesktopBSD. They
aim at ease of use:

http://www.pcbsd.org/
http://www.desktopbsd.net/

IIRC they use the 6.3 kernel (which is currently supported & pretty
much as recent as 7.0) and they use KDE rather than Gnome. They also
have support forums aimed at new users, the FreeBSD mailing lists tend
to be more technical.

I can't comment as to how good either is as I've used neither but
they've had positive write-ups.

I use FreeBSD 7.0 on my workstation & 6.3 on my server so I know the
underlying system is sound.

not sure about display card. but everything else should be OK. it's 
IBM/Lenovo :)

I don't know if this machine is going to be sited on an insecure
network or not. If it is, then you'll probably be using ssh. Without
a math co-proc to do the crypto, it will be horrendous. I don't even
know if ssh would work with an architecture without a maths unit.

If it can't work with ssh, then you might be restricting your market.

I think you are punishing yourself unneccesarily by going with a
processor without maths. You restrict the software (both OS &
application) you can run.

Can't you find a manufacturer that makes something similar with a DX
instead? Or can you email this company and ask them how much it would
cost to run off X units with a 486DX rather than SX?

security patches, port updates?  Any OS will probably require at least 
some of this.

It seemed that the OP's claim was that he had NOT asked the
parents of his domain to point any nameserving to his machine.

It used to be that people would at times use random nameservers
on the Internet that they discovered, rather than using their
own ISP's nameserver.  The advent of IP-based filtering for
BIND which allows you to specify only non-recursive queries to
be answered from IP blocks that are not your own, pretty much put
a stop to that.  But for whatever reason, sometimes you can't
employ IP-based filtering, and you have to setup a nameserver
to answer recursive queries from anyone, even though you may
still only want the world to be making non-recursive queries
to it.

The suggestion to use wildcards to issue bogus responses is
the general suggestion to "convince" goofballs on the Internet
that happen to come across your recursive-query-responding
nameserver that you do not want them to use to make recursive
queries, to go elsewhere.

Obviously if you intentionally are listing your nameserver in
a parent zone, and you employ this trick, you will need to
setup a new nameserver on a different IP and change the parent
zone.

I figured though, that anyone who knew what they were doing
would have grasped that concept, however.

> which you then use to serve 
> crap records, strikes me as somewhat counterproductive.  And I really 
> fail to see why whomever runs the parent zone would even notice. 

The OP claimed that he was getting an excessive number of
DNS requests, implying that his parent was redirecting a lot
of queries to him that he wasn't supposed to get.  If his
parent is doing that because they misconfigured their own nameserver,
then anyone depending on their nameserver will get crap records
back, and likely complain.

I think the issue is that you are assuming his parent zone
admins are doing the Correct Thing when they have configured
their own nameservers.  The OP was insistent that his parent
zone admins were doing the Wrong Thing when they configured
their own nameservers.  Thus, my suggestion is essentially telling
the OP that if he is so insistent that his parents are screwed
up, then he can put his money where his mouth is and wildcard
a porno site.

As we saw by his response to my suggestion, when the OP was
challenged to do this, he rapidly backwatered.  Since backwatering
he no longer can claim (at least on this list) that his parent
admins are idiots, and thus I assume is now open to examining
his own config a bit more closely.  (which is what you were
telling him to do all along)

Sometimes if you want the horse to drink, you have to let them
run in the opposite direction of the pond.

for router - not much :) there are for sure some security flawed programs 
on them, but what's a problem. every IP except some listed numbers are 
just blocked, dns server is cache-only with queries disabled from outside 
(and by netbsd's ipf to make sure), no outside-reachable services are 
running.

that's about security :)


about patches - why to patch fully WORKING thing.

Nothing impersonal; just trying to help. I'm a big advocate of
getting rid of things you don't need to keep things simple. Sorry
that wasn't the answer you were looking for...

Yes.  And I pointed out that he was WRONG, including in the message you 
responded to.  I went so far as to send dig output showing the glue 
record that was causing his grief.

True, but quite beside the point.  Anyway, those pesky people would 
quickly leave a server that denied all their requests alone, and if 
you'd actually read what the OP posted, you'd have noticed the "denied" 
at the end of every line from his logs that he found so disturbing.

He made no such claim at any time (at least in any e-mail that reached 
me privately or via the list).  He was confused as to why random 
machines where hitting his closed nameserver at all.

Do you honestly think lots of people are going to gang up on whomever 
runs his parent zone when they stop getting mail from the OP?  Those 
that noticed would probably sigh a little sigh of relief that they'd no 
longer have to see the OP and me fussing at each other.

Wow.  You really have problems with reading comprehension, don't you? 
You have that more or less backwards.

No, I was pointing him to the parent which was handing out the glue 
record with the address he kept claiming couldn't possibly be being made 
public by anybody.  I have no reason to suspect a problem with his 
configs and never said or hinted at such a thing in any way.

Giggle.

OK, folks, I promise, given that this has sunk well into chat territory, 
I'm done responding on the list on this topic.  I was sucked in 
originally by the OP posting my DNS server's IP address in a query, and 
it appears that the OP has finally taken the time to grasp the answer I 
kept giving him, so I'm going to move on.  Feel free to send me love 
notes privately.

Using FreeBSD's random device:
tcsh syntax:
( dd if=3D/dev/random bs=3D6 count=3D1 | openssl base64 > /dev/tty ) > & /d=
ev/null

sh syntax:
dd if=3D/dev/random bs=3D6 count=3D1 2>/dev/null| openssl base64

Linux emulation is stable enough, I would say. I've used it to run
Mathematica 5 in the past (see handbook).

I much prefer apg which can generate more-or-less pronounceable
passwords which it is possible to remember (at least after typing
them a few times :-).

One of the biggest problems with random passwords is that they
end up written on yellow-stickies on the monitor or under the
keyboard.

Hello,

I don't know why nobody else has given the correct answer
to this (it's should actually be a FAQ).  So I'll try to
give an answer.

Use "-t swap" with mdconfig(8), not "-t malloc".

FreeBSD uses all memory for caching, as far as possible.
Free memory is wasted memory.

No.  It is clearly documented in the mdconfig(8) manpage:
"If the -o reserve option is not set, creating and filling
a large malloc-backed memory disk is a very easy way to
panic a system."

As I said above, you probably don't want a malloc-backed
memory disk (which means it consumes non-pagable kernel
memory), but a swap-backed disk (which is cached in regular
RAM and backed by swap).

If you're absolutely sure you want kernel-malloc for your
memory disk, you need to increase the kmem limit (see
"sysctl vm | grep kmem").

Best regards
   Oliver

Maxima is great!

The following may also be quite useful:

If you prefer an integrated environment, try:

there is no cure for that in FreeBSD. you need some non-computer hardware 
to stop that behaviour ;)

This script might be useful for that purpose:

http://www.secnetix.de/olli/scripts/pidtrace

Given the process ID of the "find" process on the command
line, it will print its parent processes all the way up to
init(8).  That way you can easily find out if the "find"
was started by a cron job, by an rc.d script, or something
else.

The linux progs run very well, what I can tell with my modest amount of
programs using this mode. BSD uses a seperate directory what contains all
linux-bins and it integrates well. Also the speed is like a normal Linux
distro. Maybe it is a good idea to get an old 20GB harddisk, change it
and give it a try while leaving your old HD with your current
installation intact?

Cheers

I'm setting CPUTYPE on all of my machines for many years,
without the slightest problems.  No pain at all.  They're
all kinds of different processors, c3-2 (VIA), athlon64,
and so on.  In some cases the difference is very noticable.

Having said that, it's certainly worth trying whether your
problems are gone when you compile without that setting.

Do you have any other unusual settings, such as non-standard
CFLAGS or anything?

BTW, I once was bitten by a similar problem, when building
software failed in strange ways, it turned out I had a bad
variable in my environment that was picked up by some build
scripts.  Maybe it's worth a try to run your ports builds
with a clean environment ("env -"), or try to install
binary packages instead of building ports yourself, in
order to narrow down where the problem is.

Best regards
   Oliver

"Python tricks" is a tough one, cuz the language is so clean. E.g.,
C makes an art of confusing pointers with arrays and strings, which
leads to lotsa neat pointer tricks; APL mistakes everything for an
array, leading to neat one-liners; and Perl confuses everything
period, making each line a joyous adventure <wink>.

Which makes sense - attachments don't clog up the list, and people can 
download them if they want. What I think is happening is that the 
attachment is being stripped, and Outlook is looking for it since it can 
be inferred that it exists from the MIME type. Of course, the error 
should be that the message can't be authenticated (That's what Mail 
does, and it's just a line, not a modal dialog), and have nothing to do 
with the recipient needing a certificate. But I think it's more general, 
as a PGP signature (which is no different from any other attachment) 
also caused Bob the error. I wonder if *any* scrubbed attachment will 
cause a problem?

I just had to set up another system as my macbook's network card has 
died, so I'll send a signed message with Thunderbird in a minute to see 
if it also causes the error. Bob, if it still causes an error, you 
should seriously look at changing to a mail client which won't cause you 
these problems, since you can't control what users on mailing lists send 
you :).

Yes, I should have been clearer: With a tunnel, I can still push routes 
and DNS, as long as I'm willing to sacrifice the same IP address.

Here's what I found:

Wed Jun 11 12:49:46 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: Learn: 
10.8.0.6 -> client1/192.168.0.1:53237
Wed Jun 11 12:49:46 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: primary 
virtual IP for client1/192.168.0.1:53237: 10.8.0.6

This was interesting since that IP wasn't being set by the client. I'd 
been manually setting it to 10.8.0.2, which caused this:

Wed Jun 11 12:50:04 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: bad source 
address from client [10.8.0.2], packet dropped
Wed Jun 11 12:50:05 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: bad source 
address from client [10.8.0.2], packet dropped
Wed Jun 11 12:50:06 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: bad source 
address from client [10.8.0.2], packet dropped
Wed Jun 11 12:50:07 2008 client1/192.168.0.1:53237 MULTI: bad source 
address from client [10.8.0.2], packet dropped

Changing it to 10.8.0.6 allowed the VPN to work over the tunnel. I could 
access the VPN server on .1.

Bridging still doesn't work - and I don't see any traffic over the 
interface either. Unfortunately, my laptop's network card just kicked 
the dust so it's going in for servicing. I might test it out using the 
Windows client on my desktop, but since it's inside the network all 
ready I imagine it would be much harder to test.

I'd been having problems with UDP and QoS a long time ago. I just hadn't 
bothered to change it since it was working.

Thanks,

That's a neat system. Are there any retailers in North America which 
sell them individually?

Yep.  Sorry.  Any of those would be a better candidate.
I'd simply forgotten about port management tools modifying
the dependencies in-place.

You need to have in /etc/mail/mailertable:
.caamora.com.au esmpt:mail.caamora.com.au
and rebuild mailertable.db

In /etc/mail/domaintable:
mail.caamora.com.au
and rebuild domaintable.db

in /etc/mail/local-host-names:
caamora.com.au

and double check your MX record and /etc/hosts

Once that is all done, execute:
/etc/rc.sendmail stop
wait until all instances die then:
/etc/rc.sendmail start

Obviously you have been lucky to never be a victim of
silent disk corruption (or you just haven't noticed).
There are other people who didn't have that much luck,
including me.

ZFS' checksumming and self-healing is a blessing.  If
you don't know how it works and call it marketing blah,
then I suggest you read up on it a bit.

And by the way, it doesn't take any significant amount
of CPU power on hardware that is not ancient.  I agree
that ZFS is not suitable to run on ancient hardware.
It isn't designed for that.

You're free to use UFS, of course, and keep suffering
from its shortcomings.

Best regards
   Oliver

         Hi all.  Ok, I'm curious of something.  I've done torrents before 
via the graphical interface before, but I want to setup a way to download 
isos and various FOSS apps via bittorrent, but I want to do it via the 
console so I can start a torrent in screen and then walk away, allowing my 
server to finish the work without having to leave my main workstation 
running to do the work like I normally do.  I'm using bittornado right now, 
and if there's a way to do this, I'd love to know how.

I've got a question.  A friend has been loaning me his old laptop at  
work that runs Ubuntu and flash runs fine.  I have not been able to  
make it fail, yet at least. Could there be a clue in Ubuntu somewhare?  
  I'm actually thinking of running it under kqemu, if there isn't too  
much overhead, on my amd64 laptop until this gets sorted out.

If anyone has flash9 working dependably under freebsd, please let us know how.

Thanks,

ed

Look into rTorrent. It's excellent. It's CLI, and runs perfect inside
a screen session. It supports encryption, prioritization, and all
other major features of any good client.

You need to take the "Message-ID" header of the message
that you're replying to, and put it into the "In-Reply-To"
header of your response.  That's what a standard mail
client does when you reply to a message.

The "In-Reply-To" header is used by clients and webmailers
to identify the thread and the order of messages within
that thread.

I've never used Gmail or Yahoo, so I don't know if they
provide a way to manually set the "In-Reply-To" header.
If they don't you're out of luck, I'm afraid.

By the way, I'm in a similar situation:  I'm not subscribed
to the lists, but I read them with a news client via an
NNTP gateway.  That gateway is one-way, i.e. I cannot post
follow-ups to the news groups.  Instead I use the reply-by-
mail function of the news client.  This works well, because
the NNTP gateway sets the "Reply-To" back to the list's
mail address (unless there already was a Reply-To header in
the original mail, which is kept), and I configured my news
client to copy the Message-ID into an In-Reply-To header,
so it works as expected.

Best regards
   Oliver

Excellent howto Herb.  My problem is that it seems that firefox-devel =20

F1 (vote yes) to rtorrent.  I have rtorrents running permanently on my
servers, seeding torrent files.  I use screen, just like you suggest.

You apparently do not use the source :), go and grep double and float 
from some of the most common programs you use (games, scientific stuff 
and crappy UI code excused).

ssh does not use any floating point for any crypto algorithm.  Oh, 
openssh does use doubles, it prints some ratios in some places, such as 
how many percent of something has been transferred.  It seems to be 
stirring random numbers as floating point non-exactness does is not a 
bother there, but that is not used past session init.  There is no 
human-noticeable effect on normal ssh use.

I was one of the first guinea pigs for original ssh.  We did have plenty 
of non-math cpus back then, and I did run ssh on non-fpu hardware until 
two years ago.  We did run backups and configuration tasks over ssh on 
number of non-fpu computers acting as routers and other servers those 
days.  Today's games might be different, but that is not what we do on 
these embedded computers...

Applications cannot tell the difference between math emulation and 
hardware from anything else than performance, so there is no code 
difference in application layer, and kernel does not do fp at all, other 
than trapping fpu instructions and emulating them on non-fpu hardware. 
Kernel itself does not do fp math.

I do not quite understand where this fear of non-fpu came from, as it 
made no practical difference just few years ago for anything but 
scientists in labs and intensive cad/graphics work.  In particular I do 
not understand why people have an idea that everything uses floating 
point.  Very few programs do heavy math processing, most common use is 
to double divide two longs to print out some statistics when program ends.

This is not 486, it is System-on-Chip thing.  There are couple of very 
cheap SoCs, which do not have math, but performance is otherwise 
adequate for most applications.  They are much faster than 486SX, by 
5-10 times factor, so they are becoming popular on embedded devices.

As far as I know (not 100% sure, though), the NFSv4 client
is under active development.  You might have better luck
getting a useful answer on the -fs and/or -hackers lists.

"python" is more likely to pass unharmed through your spelling

I have used net-p2p/ctorrent and net-p2p/rtorrent in the past and they=20
have worked well.  Both are console bittorrent clients.  I am sure there =

what you mean. that disk wrote the data wrong and doesn't detect it on 
read? i would mean broken disk processor, it's memory etc.

possible - as much as broken main processor, main memory, some of chips on 
motherboard etc. - which will make ZFS calculate checksum wrong on write, 
or even calculate checksum right of wrong data generated by badly 
operating programs.

given the complexity of motherboard+CPU etc. to complexity of disk 
hardware, i don't think "silent disk failure" happens often.

i think all your cases wasn't disk, but general hardware problems.
ZFS may help detect it, or it may not. if it helped for you.

even without ZFS it WOULD cause problems with programs like random 
crashes.


personally i often got disk failing the way that it was unable to read or 
write giving an error, but never things like that.

i have to start suffering at first....

At least on Debian, the bittornado port includes the curses interface. 
It was called 'btdownload.curses' I think. It's possible it is all ready 
installed or is available via ports.

Another possibility is to run a GUI client in a VNC session. I do this 
with Azureus and am quite pleased with it.

This is on a relatively new Dell dualcore with 4G of ram running up to =20
date stable.  I'm not on site so I have no idea what might be =20
provoking these crashes.  In fact in many years of running FreeBSD =20
I've not seen something just happen like this.  It is a =20
simi-production machine that cvsups daily and builds and installs a =20
new world and kernel.  Ports are updated about once a week and haven't =20
seen any issues previously.  It has been running 24/7 since new, about =20
8 months.

3 files were generated info, bounds and vmcore.  The info file follows:

the vmcore is about 300M so I'm not attaching it;) I could put it on =20
line at a moments notice.  I think that what I need is probably a =20
crash course on debugging a crash and I really don't know where to =20
start since after over 10 years with freebsd I've never needed it.  =20
Any help, suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

See the developers' handbook chapter on kernel debugging.

However, panics that "suddenly" start happening frequently on a system 
that has been stable for a while with no OS or workload changes made, 
are usually due to the hardware starting to fail.

Good find - it looks like Mail is using application/pkcs7-signature, 
while Thunderbird is using , application/x-pkcs7-signature, which is 
allowed. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME#Caveats, 
either is an acceptable mime type. So I guess I should email the list 
admins and ask them to allow that mime type, since they are allowing 
signatures anyways on the list.

I assume it will only work with the new kernel because the =20
kernel.debug only got to Cannot access memory at address 0x4b55.  =20
Which means I have to wait for another crash.

I have already compiled a new kernelwith debuging and will reboot =20
tonight to install the kernel and hopefully will never need to test it.

Thanks for your help,

=09The "Flashplugin"s in the ports collection are the Linux
versions, which require both a) an interface between the plugin and
the browser and b) the Linux emulation layer.
=09My last information about Flash9, gleaned from various FreeBSD
mailing lists: the problem is thought to be _somewhere_ between the
plugin and the emulation layer.  This is roughly equivalent to
saying there is a mouse somewhere in <inesrt your continent here>.
=09The current set of permanent pest control experts (the Linux
emulation crew) has considered the matter and decided this is not
worth the time.  As of the time I heard about it, this was in part
because a) Flash9 had tangible problems under Linux and b) even if
they knew what was broken in the plugin the track record of Adobe
being willing to fix it was poor.  (Volunteers for a special mission
should apply on the emulation@ list.)
=09Don't get me wrong - I'd love to have a working Flash<current>
even under emulation.  But after _years_ of having hopes raised and
dashed I'm pretty much waiting for Flash10 which is supposed to have
an open spec API (ABI??).

This is not supposed to be an offense to any author of a password 
generator, but:
Never, but never trust any random password generator. You do not know 
the author, you do not know the algoritm it uses and in worst case 
scenarion you do not know if there is a millisecond traffic to somewhere 
that is recording the generated password.

You don't need a generated password for that; it is common behaviour for 
people that aren't involved in any responsibility whatsoever.

Correct.  It does happen.

A broken processor usually results in random crashes, not
silent data corruption.  Broken memory will be noticed if
it supports ECC, otherwise it will also result in crashes,
most probably.

 > which will make ZFS calculate checksum wrong on write, 

Even if that happens (without crashes or other things that
you'll notice immediately), the error will be detected by
ZFS and fixed ("healed") if possible, i.e. when running
with redundancy and at least one copy has a good checksum.

(GELI can only detect, but not fix.  ZFS can fix it, too.
I assume in theory it would be possible to make geli co-
operate with gmirror so it could fix bad blocks, too, but
that's just theory.  ZFS is reality.)

 > or even calculate checksum right of wrong data generated by badly

What do you mean, wrong data generated by programs?  If
a program generates wrong output, there's nothing any
file system could do about that.  That's not the file
system's job at all.  The file systems job is to ensure
the integrity of data written to the disk, and ZFS does
exactly that.

Fortunately it doesn't happen often, but it does happen.
And when it happens, you are in really serious trouble.
You usually notice it when it's too late and the last
good backup media was already recycled.

 > i think all your cases wasn't disk, but general hardware problems.

In my case it was a disk with media surface errors, and
the disk failed to report the error properly to the OS.
Instead it just returned bad data.

 > ZFS may help detect it, or it may not. if it helped for you.

Please stop spreading FUD.  There is no "may or may not".
If a disk returns bad data, ZFS _will_ detect it.
Silent corruption _cannot_ happen with ZFS, except if
you disable the checksumming feature intentionally.

Please elaborate what the problem is, if you think there
is one.

As I said:  You were lucky.

Many people suffer without knowing.  :-)

I do suffer from UFS' shortcomings on many machines
on which I can't use ZFS (or other file systems) for
various reasons.

Note that using TCP on top of TCP can cause certain
problems, especially when packets are lost.  There's
a good explanation on this page:

http://sites.inka.de/sites/bigred/devel/tcp-tcp.html

The short story is:  If any packets are lost, the
resend-algorithms of the two TCP layers will start
to interfere with each other, because both have their
own timeouts and will start retransmitting packets
at their respective levels.  This is bad, because it
leads to a snowball effect.

If you can guarantee that there will be zero packet
loss, then TCP is fine.  Otherwise I recommend to
run the VPN on UDP.

Best regards

result in both in my practice. with broken companion chips (chipset) it's 
silent data corruption is common, while crashes can be under specific

please read more carefully. i didn't say it.

i just say that "disk returning bad data" is very rare case, lots of 
other - more frequent - hardware problems will not be detected.

if you like to give lots of CPU power and disk bandwidth for calculation 
of checksums on each read/write - then OK.
if you think you are secured this way - then OK.

i just say it doesn't make lot of protection against bad hardware, not 
worth the expense.

i probably shouldn't type that point as it can be turned off in ZFS.

I'm almost ready to give up on this.  I've gone as far as completely rewriting the 
original C++ program into straightforward C, and still the performance is terrible on 
FreeBSD versus Linux.  

On Linux:

$ time ./cdbf /tmp/invoice.dbf >/dev/null
./cdbf /tmp/invoice.dbf > /dev/null  42.65s user 20.09s system 71% cpu 1:28.15 total

On FreeBSD:



Also note that on the FreeBSD machine, I have enough RAM that to buffer the entire 
file, and in practice gstat shows that the drives are idle for subsequent runs after 
the first one.

Right now my code looks a lot like:

   for(recordnum = 0; recordnum < recordcount; recordnum++) {
	buf = malloc(recordlength);
	fread(buf, recordlength, 1, dbffile);

        /* Do stuff with buf */

        memoblock = getmemoblock(buf);
        /* Skip to the requested block if we're not already there */
	if(memoblock != currentmemofileblock) {
	    currentmemofileblock = memoblock;
	    fseek(memofile, currentmemofileblock * memoblocksize, SEEK_SET);
	}
	memohead = malloc(memoblocksize);
	fread(memohead, memoblocksize, 1, memofile);
	currentmemofileblock++;

        /* Do stuff with memohead */

        free(memohead);
	free(buf);
    }

...where recordlength == 13 in this one case.  Given that the whole file is buffered in 
RAM, the small reads shouldn't make a difference, should they?  I've played with 
setvbuf() and it shaves off a few percent of runtime, but nothing to write home about.

Now, memofile gets quite a lot of seeks.  Again, that shouldn't make too much of a 
difference if it's already buffered in RAM, should it?  setvbuf() on that file that 
gets lots of random access actually made performance worse.

What else can I do to make my code run as well on FreeBSD as it does on a much wimpier 
Linux machine?  I'm almost to the point of throwing in the towel and making a Linux 
server to do nothing more than run this one program if I can't FreeBSD's performance 
more on parity, and I honestly never thought I'd be considering that.

I'll gladly give shell access with my code and sample data files if anyone is 
interested in testing it.

I'm going to take this opportunity to preach. Everyone should be using  
a good password management system.  Otherwise people will use either  
weak passwords or will use passwords which are predictable from other  
passwords.  (That is using the same password or variants of the same  
password for many separate realms.)

I don't run FreeBSD on desktops so I haven't looked at the various  
tools available.  On OS X, I use 1password which makes excellent use  
of the OS X Keychain system, and has terrific webbrowser integration.   
I'm fairly sure that the Apple Keychain libraries have been or can be  
ported to FreeBSD, but it might require GnuStep.

On Window's I recommend Password Safe.  In ports, sysutils/pwsafe  
provides a CLI utility that can manage Password Safe data.  And  
security/gorilla provides a tcl/tk GUI for pwsafe.  I've used both on  
OS X, and the work fine, but I much prefer 1password in that  
environment.

I've never looked at things like kwallet or other Unixish password  
management systems.  But once again, I recommend that everyone use a  
proper password management system.

Oops!  I left that out:

Again, Linux is on a boring Dell workstation, FreeBSD is on a far faster Dell server 15K

Andrew,

I received that with no problem. There is also a button in the corner I
have never seen before that reveals the signature on this message is
Valid and Trusted.

In response to your earlier message, I do not have control over which
mail agent I use. That is dictated by the company's IT group. It may
soon be further downgraded to Office 2007, if the rumors I hear are
correct.

/etc/hosts :

::1 localhost.mydomain.tld localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.mydomain.tld localhost


/etc/defaults/rc.conf :

ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"   # default loopback device configuration.

... but ifconfig always shows no inet:

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
         inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
         inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128


so we added to /etc/rc.conf :

ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0"

... still not inet4 loopback if (so commented it out).

no errors in /var/log/messages,
dmesg -a shows no error,
... other than services failing to grab ports on 127.0.0.1


thanks
Len

No, I don't use the source :)

I kind of assumed "It must do a lot with numbers, so it will run like
a dog without a co-processor".

It was explained to me (off-list) that co-processors work on floats
not ints.

I didn't think you'd be having the odd game of Quake on one of your

I used to do a lot of CAD and buying a machine without a co-processor
was considered madness. That's where my prejudice comes from.

I was referring to the 100MHz 486 you looked at.

I'd still get an fpu so you can install a largely unpatched OS of your
choice even if the fpu is redundant beyond installing the OS.

I guess you looked at the Soekris stuff and discounted it. Shame,
because a lot of folks find them useful with *BSD.

and we can do this, too:

ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 up

then ifconfig shows:

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
         inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3

Do you have network_interfaces set to something different than "auto" in 
/etc/rc.conf?

Heikki,

Gentoo (http://www.gentoo.org) is a pretty easy install and is the most
closely aligned Linux distribution I've seen to the "build it from source"
mentality.  It's gotten fancier over the years but still has at its core
the notion of building blocks and doesn't push binary package distribution
the way most seem to these days.  Whether it'll install on an FPU-less
system I don't know.  Might be worth a look.

Please do report back with what you ultimately find works; this is a
source of interest for me and I'm sure others.

Hi All,

Today I read an article describing how my government had lost ZAR200 000 00=

from fraud.  This is just under $25 000 000.  The article credited this los=
s=20
largely due to the use of spyware. =20

My question is how secure is FreeBSD (including KDE, GNOME and XFCE) to=20
attacks, including cracking and spyware.  In addition, is there anyway to=20
prevent a user from executing a program that is not owned by root (i.e. any=
=20
program installed by the user), this would prevent spyware being installed=
=20
(assuming root has been properly locked down) and subsequently run. =20

If anyone, in addition, has answers for Linux and *BSD it would be great to=
=20
know as well. =20

Best Regards

David

I read this thread but missed that some pkg_add added 
network_interfaces in rc.conf, and left out "lo"

Hi All,

Today I read an article describing how my government had lost ZAR200 000 00=
0=20
from fraud.  This is just under $25 000 000.  The article credited this los=
s=20
largely due to the use of spyware. =20

My question is how secure is FreeBSD (including KDE, GNOME and XFCE) to=20
attacks, including cracking and spyware.  In addition, is there anyway to=20
prevent a user from executing a program that is not owned by root (i.e. any=
=20
program installed by the user), this would prevent spyware being installed=
=20
(assuming root has been properly locked down) and subsequently run. =20

If anyone, in addition, has answers for Linux and *BSD it would be great to=
=20
know as well. =20

Best Regards

David

do not include that programs to FreeBSD. they are not it's part. it's just 
few of thousand programs that can run under FreeBSD.

This is the commit that removed it:

It's probably not that difficult to reintroduce.

It should run FreeBSD just fine.   Check the hardware compatibility
lists to check for specific peripherals.

The Linux compatibility layer worked well.  Should be no problem.

I run bittornado's btlaunchmany.py script through screen (sysutils/screen) 
for the very reason you describe.  It's been working great for years.

That is a very broad question without a simple answer. It depends among
other things on the purpose of the machine and the knowledge of the
administrator.=20

E.g, if you are creating a workstation that doesn't run externally
accessible servers you could configure the firewall to block all
incoming new connection requests. That will go a long way toward
safeguarding the machine against network attacks.

There is no way to safeguard a machine that an attacker has physical
access to; he could e.g. steal the harddisk and read your data at his
leisure (unless it is encrypted on-disk, e.g. with geli(8)). Also, no OS
can defend against social engineering attacks.=20

I would not worry overly much about spyware.  Most if not all of those
are windows binaries. Also, unix mail clients as a rule do not execute
scripts embedded in mail messages.

You could mount /home and other partitions where users have write access
like /tmp with the noexec option. Note that that wouldn't block the executi=
on
of scripts, just binaries.

in case somebody gets stuck as i was - here are detailed instruction and 
the CORRECT ORDER in which the needed kernel modules HAVE to be loaded 
in order for the megacli to work properly...

You might also consider mldonkey, which does the the file sharing via
a daemon (mlnet) which you can connect to via various methods,
including telnet, a web interface, and several GUI applications. It's
primarily an ed2k client and its BT support isn't very sophisticated,
but it does have the advantage that the daemon will start from rc.d and
run in the background without any manual intervention.

Just before FBSD-7 was released, I asked if Perl 5.10.0 would be
included in the new version. I was informed that it would not be;
however, it would be released shortly after FBSD-7 was released.

Well, FBSD-7 has been out for a while now; however, I still do not see
the updated version of Perl. Is there any specific reason that it has
not been released?

It is my understanding that since 1995 all computers must have a
hardware back door that permits undetectable access by the government to
the computer. This capability can be implemented using System
Monitor(Maintenance) Mode which is built into all x86 computers now. It
would appear that, if you are connected to the internet, the government
has access to your computer.

This is not the place to get into this debate, but I think that  
someone should state for the record that the vast majority of security  
experts would disagree with you.

However, I fully acknowledge that if the National Security Agency or  
GCHQ or the like wanted to break into any one of my systems, I'm sure  
that they could.

But the question wasn't about making a system that could withstand  
something like the NSA but instead about defending against run of the  
mill spyware.  Switching from Windows to FreeBSD would obviously  
improve matters for that kind of attack, but the real answers to the  
original question require an understanding of the nature of the  
threats and the nature of the counter measures far beyond what was  
evident in the question.  After all, most spyware is installed with  
the users' consent (though the user may not know that it is sypware.)

For just about everyone, I recommend pretty much anything written by  
Bruce Schneier.  As as start there is his very brief "How to think  
about security" essay:

Great info, Kalin.

I have several boxes with LSI controllers, the PERC 5i works
wonderfully with FreeBSD (though the Dell 6850 sucks), and I have a
couple boxes with Supermicro boards with built-in LSI MegaRaid,
however it's done in software. This means that the mfi controller
works fine as individual disks, but will not support any RAID levels
in FreeBSD. You're probably almost as well off using gmirror anyway.

I've started using 3ware cards again after a bit of a hiatus and they
work great, and the FreeBSD support is good.

My next experiment is going to be some HighPoint cards. I'm not sure
at this point I wold trust them with my important data, but what's
cool is they are very inexpensive cards, show up in computer stores
like Fry's, and seem to have pretty decent FreeBSD support for their
size. I'm going to try an 8-port in my desktop (I use it for some
pretty serious MySQL work at times) soon... IMHO if the cards are
decent it'd be nice to reward them for their efforts by putting some
money their way.

A relatively new security threat known as 'The Blue Pill', based upon
hardware, is a class of virtual rootkits that can silently take over
Intel and AMD systems. A good site to visit to learn about these virtual
rootkits is http://invisiblethings.org/index.html.

That is simple (in concept) yet absolutely brilliant!  I'm sure that  
people much smarter that I am have thought about these things more  
carefully than I have, but I'm not convinced that a blue pill would be  
completely undetectable.

First it should consume memory.  A very complete test of memory  
through a modified memtest should be able to detect whether system  
reported memory is accurate.

Secondly, a blue pill would need to be reinserted after a hard  
reboot.  Therefore a look at the boot process (of a non-live system)  
should be able to see whether there is something that reinserts the  
blue pill.

But even if detection is possible these ways, a Blue Pill would be  
extremely difficult to detect once inserted, and so the focus would  
have to be entirely on prevention.

Again, these are just my first thoughts after looking at this very  
briefly.  The people who come up with this stuff and do proper  
analysis are both smarter and more knowledgeable than I am.

Cheers,

-j

Any idea what the name of the project for the Security framework is? I 
can't seem to find anything on Google. I'd love to be able to access 
keychains from OS X on other platforms, without resorting to dumping 
everything to plaintext.

the question is: how do I set the root password on mysql?  this is a 
first step in getting phpbb3 up.   i have other CMS tools installed 
on aristotle, m jail where my webserver runs.

this failed:


mysqladmin -u root password
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'


according to my logs it has been about 5 years since i did this last.

advice please!

gary

What if memtest already runs within the virtualization box? How can it
determine what the "right" amount of memory is supposed to be? And if
the virtualizer hot-patched memtest instructions, either on loading it
or dynamically while it runs, it  could make it report whatever it
liked.

Yes, but you've got to have a very close look at it, as it won't
necessarily appear on the screen -- being caught as well by the
virtualizer. And Joanna also has a paper about fooling hardware
capture cards into reporting bogus data on her site, so you won't
even be able to detect that RAM contains something else upon boot
than those hardware capture cards are supposedly reporting.

If all this is as she's described, it is truly brilliant from a
technical POV... and a very worrying thought as well.

There are actually two versions of this in ports: sysutils/pwgen and
sysutils/pwgen2. The latter is an independent rewrite rather than a
version 2, and seems to be much more secure. 

The problem with pwgen is that its PRNG is very weakly seeded, making
it vulnerable to simple brute-force attacks. As most of the entropy
comes from the time (in *integer* seconds), it's particularly weak if an
attacker knows roughly when the password was generated. An attacker with
local access may even be able to compute the passwords directly. 

pwgen2 gets random numbers directly from /dev/random, which is how
it should be. 

IMO pwgen should be removed from the ports tree, or failing that should
be patched to use arc4random(), which is self-seeding. I don't really
see the point in keeping it though.

Is it possible to build a CD-ROM with a bootable NanoBSD on it?
If so, how?

Your mysql server already has a password for user root.

2 options

1 - mysqladmin -u root -p password

Of course I think you dont know current password or you wouldnt be
asking....so second option

Read
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html#resetting-permissions-unix

with that steps you will reset root password

Best regards

Yes.  I've now read through some of Rutowska's slides (following the  
link provided by dfeustel in another post in this thread).

Yes it is worrying.  The next time I reboot the one server I've got  
with an SVM capable processor I'm going to disconnect the power (to  
make sure that I'm getting a real reboot instead of a spoofed one) and  
then on reboot I will disable SVM in the BIOS.

But mostly I'm just in admiration of people who can think of things  
this clever (even if they are very scary and dangerous things).

Thank y'all for a very enlightening discussion.

I like sysutils/pwgen too.

In it's default state it will give a screenful of semi-pronounceable
passwords from which you pick one. 

It can also be used in a shell script to generate single passwords.

Having the password semi-pronounceable avoids the sticky-note problem
to a large extent as they're easy to learn.

Can also generate gibberish, if that's your choice. Widely tunable.

For password containment i.e all my online passwords, I use a shell
script with gpg and a strong password.

So in theory, I only have to remember my user login and the password
for gpg. In practice, I remember a few more that I use regularly.

This looks like a good place to start.

I, too, would like my OS X Keychains to be portable.

How do you know that the bios has not been reflashed by a virus, trojan,
or rootkit?

In the last 4 months I bought a new monitor to replace the one that 
clunked out in me.  I am currently using it with an old PS2 type 
keyboard and mouse attached to a creaky old desktop that will eventually 
be replaced.  Likely I will want to replace it with a laptop with wifi 
and a lot more memory and hard drive so that I can take it with me.  Can 
I still use the old monitor as a second display?

Can this be done?  Is it done?  What are the issues?

It would be nice if it could be patched and a portaudit warning issued
for it so users could update.

The patching would be beyond me unfortunately...or fortunately, as I
would likely make it *really* insecure ;)

You can search for FreeBSD + dual monitors on google and find some examples + 
usual pitfalls.

This issue is very easily solved with open source code, as you
can simply read the code before running it.  That is one of the
reasons that most crypto implementations that people trust
to actually keep things private are open source.

Such as people who don't read the source for any password generator
before running it?

Unfortunately after updating my portsnap; it did not work. Here is the
error I get: 

$ firefox
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: SendRequest: Read of ack failed: 0

System error?:: Unknown error: 0
$ firefox
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: SendRequest: Read of ack failed: 0

System error?:: Unknown error: 0

It's interesting to note that you don't have to download the tzupdater
tool from Java (which requires you to create an account with their site).
In order to avoid getting that file just edit the Makefile prior to
running make. This may be necesarry for java to work, but it gave me the
same error with and without that TZ package. Anyway, which firefox
version are your running? I'm using firefox 2.0.0.12.

On Linux, GNU libc buffers file data much more extensively than  
FreeBSD's libc does.  It means that doing things like reading a dozen  
bytes or so at a time is not intolerably slow on the former system,  
but that doesn't mean that it's a great idea either.

If your data files are small enough to fit into 2GB of address space,  
try using mmap() and then treat the file(s) as an array of records or  
memoblocks or whatever, and let the VM system deal with paging in the  
parts of the file you need.  Otherwise, don't fread() 1 record at a  
time, read in at least a (VM page / sizeof(record)) number of records  
at a time into a bigger buffer, and then process that in RAM rather  
than trying to fseek in little increments.

(This is the opposite of calling setvbuf() to set the I/O buffer to,  
say, 13 bytes...)

Also, if you're malloc'ing and freeing buf & memohead with every  
iteration of the loop, you're just thrashing the malloc system;  
instead, allocate your buffers once before the loop, and reuse them  
(zeroize or copy new data over the previous results) instead.

FWIW I had major issues with 173.14.05 (X.org crash to syscons at random
and usually immediately when using GLX stuff) and reverted to 169.12 which
is running once again without issue.

Anyhow, I remember experiencing issues like what you're mentioning though
it's a while ago so my memory is hazy.  IIRC, it comes from conflicts
between the Mesa and Nvidia libraries, and there was some voodoo that
seemed to help (though I'm not sure if it's still used), which was to
set `USE_NVIDIA_GL=3Dyes' in /etc/make.conf.

There may also be some library rebuilding needed once that make variable
has been set (libGL and friends).

Disclaimer: the above advice is based on a hazy memory of dealing with
similar issues and may be totally inaccurate and/or snake oil.

I just started using rTorrent recently, and discovered that it's pretty
much exactly what I want from a CLI/console BitTorrent client so far.

	Well, gentlemen, I may finally have a clue!  The guy who set up
	my networking stuff and whatever database ports there are
	did not install mysql50-server. Just the -client side.  This
	fellow is the salt-of-the-earth type, ETC, but evidently didn't
	get into phpbb or whatever I've been trying to do.

	The -server side is building on my serious antique Kayak now.
	My thanks to both you guys; the dev.mysql.com site is chock full
	of info and should give me a boost when I try again.

A lot of peeps use Soekris type boards, that may be an option as well.  
http://www.soekris.com/products.htm. Even the lowest model has these 
specs, including floating pint capability.

I have two server installs of FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE. One is running AMD64 
and the other is running i386.

The one running AMD64 is getting an error at SMTP time of:

   535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: generic failure

Once this happens, the saslauthd thread that took the connection causes 
this line to be written in ../messages:

   Jun 12 05:51:01 smtpgate kernel: pid 37374 (saslauthd), uid 0: exited on 
signal 11 (core dumped)

I've looked for the core dump but can't find it anywhere.

Both servers are running identical versions of:

   smtpgate# pkg_info |grep cyrus
   cyrus-sasl-2.1.22_1 RFC 2222 SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer)
   cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.22 SASL authentication server for cyrus-sasl2

Does anyone know if there is an issue with cyrus sasl and/or cyrus 
saslauthd on AMD64? Or is there anything special needed to be done?

I had the same problem installing 6.2 release.
This is mentioned only once in the section 2.13.1 of the handbook. I think
that many beginers tend to go step-by-step on the installation and when
learning something new and this notion should be pointed out somewhat
earlier in chapter 2.

Oh, doom does not require fp, its integer only and on 100MHz Pentium it 
was very smooth!  I did couple of hour-long doom sessions on one of our 
FreeBSD routers while waiting for a bug to regenerate itself in one of 
our pops some time around 1996 :)

The last I checked Soekris boards were using more power.  We use similar 
boards from pcengines.ch for wireless routers.  This application I am 
working on needs a computer with VGA and sound interfaces.

I tried to overwrite just the last sector, but though dd reported 
success (and took ages, seems it has to do a read for every skipped 
sector) the data was still there when I used dd to display it.
I have just done a search for sector editing software but I cannot 
find anything in ports.  Starting to think of writing some C... how 
hard can it be just to seek to a given sector and scribble zeros on 
it?

so then I did this (overwrite last megabyte)and that did in fact zero 
the last megabyte, taking away the raid info AND all the partition 
info.  not exactly what I wanted but I was going to repartition 
anyway.
but I now have another disk with data and raid info on it and will 
need a way to nondestructively remove the raid info there.

I did try the suggestion of 'atacontrol' but it did nothing, I also 
tried 'gmirror clear' but that gives an error message, maybe I should 
first create a gmirror then clear it.  or maybe try the 'forget' 
command....

hmmm, thinking now the gmirror create/remove route will probably 
work.  let me try it on a blankish disk and see....

this was not a cheap card, it is an Adaptec 2400A.  4 disks.  It can 
do RAID5 too but I never tried that, having needed 2 mirror pairs 
instead.

the new motherboard is an Intel D965 with 6 SATA sockets, 4 of which 
are now supporting the new RAID5 array (4x400Gb disks).  whether is 
is the RAID hardware or just because it is SATA2, it is damn fast 
compared to IDE.  pleased so far.  oh, not booting off this, it is 
just data (and the old IDE mirror disks must now work in the non RAID 
backup server)

thank all for help. i asked the registrar (gdynia.pl) to fix a problem

Xorg support 2 monitors.
be default you will simply get two X displays (:0.0 and :0.1), first 
default, and use second by
DISPLAY=:0.1 program

or you may use Xinerama in X11 that creates one virtual display from two.

if you have 2 monitors, two keyboards and two mice, you may use it as 
2-use system with patched X11, i made a patch but a long time ago, it will 
not work ouf of the box with new Xorg

if it were true, this "system maintenance mode" would have to access your

I had the opposite problem: I could not build the world/kernel until I set =

CPUTYPE to "c3-2" (or "c3"). It was a brand new VIA EDEN-EX 1.5GHz with no =

other things installed but a copy of the 7.0-RELEASE-p1 source. (I did not =

have compile problems when I installed the 6.2 on a similar machine)

I set CPUTYPE in /etc/make.conf. I think it is only used by the gcc=20
compiler so it will probably only make a difference if you compile ports=20
or from source.

Compiling the kernel/world with CPUTYPE=3Dc3-2 I think I see an improved=20
boot time. I do not know of other gains as the server idles most of the=20
time so I do not really care as long as it is stable. I never did try to=20
time the kernel and world builds.

For that matter, how do you know that the *original* bios was free
of "interesting non-essentials"?  It's been a few years since bios
were delivered in socketed ROMs/EPROMs (readable by a standalone
device, independently of their own operation) or since sources were
typically published :)

On 12 Jun 2008 , DA Forsyth entreated about
 "Re: xRAID disks....":

> hmmm, thinking now the gmirror create/remove route will probably 
> work.  let me try it on a blankish disk and see....

this appears to be the answer to the question:
how to stop ar recognizing a disk that used to be on a raid 
controller

doing a 'gmirror label gm0 /dev/ad1' filled the last sector with 
data, and 'gmirror clear /dev/ad1' reset it all to zero

now to try it on the big disk with data on it...
YES: it works, and the data slice is still there, and the commands 
happen a lot faster than a dd with a skip parameter

sidenote:  to see the last sector use sysinstall's fdisk to see the 
data for the disk.  you'll see something like

Disk name:      ad3                                    FDISK 
Geometry:  38913 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 625137345 sectors 
Offset       Size(ST)        End     Name  PType       Desc  Subtype  
         0         63         62        -     12     unused        0
        63  625137282  625137344    ad3s1      8    freebsd      165
 625137345       5103  625142447        -     12     unused        0
                       ^^^^^^^^^
you want that number in a dd commmand like this
   dd if=/dev/ad3 skip=625142447 | hd -v			

Thanks to all for the pointers

Thank you guys.

I will try to install FreeBSD on a second hard disk to have a test.

Is FreeBSD going to enhance himself on the desktop ? It seems that FreeBSD 
focuses mainly on server, while Linux has improved a lot in the past a few 
years both on server and desktop. But I'm still eager to try FreeBSD on my 
notebook :P

A near-trivial exercise in virtualization, provided it knows what 
kind of card is in use and what addresses it occupies, which is
rather easy if the "card" is in fact built onto the mainboard.  Of
course, it is also trivial to defeat it by using an add-in card
instead of the one on the mainboard, esp. a card whose design did
not exist when the bios was written.

Cycles consumed by SMM might also explain why some PCs' clocks seem
to run slower than real time ...

I am able to compile world and kernel and the temperature of the cores
is never higher than 67.
I  find it stable.

I had a similar problem when I tried to use kgdb to diagnose a page fault.  

I found that it worked fine on another vmcore from the next crash - without
any knowledge of the subject, I assume that sometimes when FreeBSD crashed
it was unable to write a correct vmcore?  Anyway, try it again with other
vmcores; I did not specifically enable debugging in the kernel but still got
a sensible trace.

Yours,
Mark

i don't understand your question. FreeBSD can run any unix program, be in 
"server program" or "desktop program" whatever "desktop" means for you.

there is nothing to be enhanced.

ZFS is very nice, but slightly over-hyped imho. However, some of the =
hype is warranted and for some use cases ZFS is a much better fit than =
UFS.

Despite what Wojciech Puchar says, ZFS checksumming can be very useful. =
I recently had two drives in a hardware RAID-5 array (8 x 1 TB on a =
Highpoint RocketRAID 2340) develop unreadable sectors seemingly at the =
same time. I'm not sure what caused it but the end result was a =
broken/unavailable array. To make a long story short I managed to get =
the drives to remap the bad sectors and bring the array back online. =
Since I had ZFS on the array I didn't have to wait for fsck to run =
(takes a very long time on a 7 TB array and requires a LOT of memory to =
even work), and after the pool had been scrubbed I had a list of files =
with bad checksums that I could restore from backup. With UFS I would =
have had silent data corruption.

Beware, there have been reports of mmap not working properly together =
with ZFS. I'm not sure if this is still a problem and if it would affect =
a typical web server. It does not seem to affect any of my fileservers =
(exporting NFS).

I didn't find nothing about this card on web!!!

Is there any generic driver? What's the chipset? Maybe Intel?

THanks!

> ZFS is very nice, but slightly over-hyped imho.

not slightly and not only over-hyped. it's definitely far from being for 
storage as "VM is for memory".
for example you can't select per file (or at least - per 
pseudo-filesystem) if you want no protection, mirrored or raidz.

you must have disks dedicated for raidz, disks dedicated for mirrored 
storage and disks dedicated for unprotected storage. it's inflexible and 
not much usable.

actually - much less usable than "legacy" 
gmirror/gstripe/gconcat+bsdlabel.


one of my systems have 8 disks. 80% of data doesn't need any protection, 
it's just a need for a lot of space, other 20 needs to be mirrored.
this 80% of data is used in high bandwidth/low seeks style (only big 
files).

i simply partitioned every disk on 2 partitions, every first is used to 
make gmirror+gstripe device, every second is used to make gconcat device, 
and i have what i need WITH BALANCED LOAD.

with ZFS i would have to make first 2 drives as mirror, another 6 for 
unprotected storage, having LOTS of seeks on first 2 drives and very 
little seeks on other 6 drives. the system would be unable to support the 
load.



to say more: zfs set copies could be usable to selectively mirror given 
data while not mirroring other (using unprotected storage for ZFS).
but it's broken. it writes N copies under write, but don't remake copies 
in case of failure!

You may be running linux_base-f8 with 7.0-RELEASE, isn't it?

linux_base-f8 uses some futex functions present only in STABLE. To get rid of 
it you could update to 7-STABLE, or, as I do, just copy linux_futex.c and 
linux_futex.h from CURRENT or STABLE into sys/compat/linux and rebuild your 
kernel, while keep using 7.0-RELEASE.

I had a question concerning how to, suggest a feature in freebsd. But I did
not know who to email, I am very new to this open-source feel, and was just
wondering who, or where I post a suggestion.

I think this argument is rather mute, just because there are no programs=20

Excellent idea, that would work just fine :-).  I think /var/tmp should be=

If a script is run using #!/bin/sh would that then be executable with noexe=

(i.e. running "./example.sh" instead of "sh ./example.sh)

Thank you to everyone who has replied, it was been informative. =20

I had this with my Linux box at home.  The solution is to change the 
CMOS setting for the drive mode to 'enhanced' (on my motherboard at 
any rate).  If you use the compatibility mode then the chipset maps 
the SATA drives to the 'IDE' space and speed will be limited to 
somewhere around PIO4  (-:

in my experience, sysinstall ALWAYS complains about geometry and I 
always just leave it and it always just works. YMMV

	One possibility:
	1) Propose it here.  Perhaps it's already been done and hiding
under another name; perhaps someone is currently working on it;
perhaps there are good reasons why it's never going to happen.
	2) Once it's passed through the crucible, write it up as a PR -
"http://www.freebsd.org/support/bugreports.html", probably as a
Miscellaneous Non-Critical Change-Request.

On rereading natd(8) and my natd.conf I wondered if you mightn't need:

  target_address  255.255.255.255  # unmapped go to alias_address

but expect you'd get a more useful response to this over on freebsd-net@

cheers, Ian

Hi all,

I'm new to FreeBSD and don't have a lot of time to go digging through 
archives/info to find answers, so excuse this if it's a "noob" question. 
It's an emergency server build, and needs to be solid and fast.

Will FreeBSD have any problems running on the following hardware? Which 
would be better FreeBSD 6.3 or 7?

Intel Quad Core Extreme 3Ghz, LGA775
Asus P5K-E Motherboard (P35 chipset, Onboard LAN)
4G Kingston DDR 2 RAM (PC2 6400)
Seagate 500G, SATA 2, 7200RPM
GeForce 7200GS 128MB 32-bit GDDR2 PCI-E x16 Video Card (basically a cheap 
vid card)
Samsung SATA CD-ROM

Thanks in advance.

(I've been building/running x86 boxes since DOS 3.3, just haven't had need 
of *nix environment yet, so I'm not total noob)

I have recompiled kernel to 6.2-STABLE, 7.0-RELEASE, 7.0-RELEASE-p1,
7.0-STABLE but error persists.

System work good for some time (few days) and than vmstat -i irq20;
rate increases from 60-90 to 100000+ and than system hangs.
After reboot system work good for some time.

I have replaced sever, moved disks to another server with same
hardware (and controller), and error persists.

Kind Regards

All these components will work. I have not tested the Geforce 7200, but 
I doubt that it will give you any problems.

You have the right mailing list, so go ahead with your question/comment.

Just know that if you are suggesting a feature in FreeBSD and are not
a programmer yourself, a lot will depend on how involved the feature
is and whether you can get someone to work on it.  At least in this
circumstance, "if you want a lot you have to give a lot".

You can use this instruction:
http://www.witsuite.com/support/knowledge-base/manual-installation/install-php.php#configure-php-to-use-in-command-prompt

It clearly shows how to use different php.ini for Apache PHP and PHP
CLI.
You can even create a few bat files with different environment.

For example, I think the installation and local language support(I need to 
read and input Chinese frequently) of ubuntu may be better than FreeBSD.

What FreeBSD focuses on is being an Operating System - a foundation platform
for what you want to run.   There are plenty of desktop utilities that
you can easily install to get the environment you wish.   But, FreeBSD does
not decide for you which to use.   

For example, I prefer a fairly simple desktop without a lot of extra
garbage in my way.   So, I just use Afterstep.  Some people seem to need 
the security blanket feeling of all that extra junk.

KDE and Gnome are a couple of desktops lots of people use.
Whichever you want, they are in the ports system for easy install.
Learn to use the ports system.   It makes FreeBSD very powerful as
a desktop as well as a server.

You might want to have a look at using a restricted shell for users.

I know bash & pdksh have a restricted mode. A quick look at the
manpages for sh & csh suggests they don't. Bash and pdksh are in
ports.

Can't tell you which is best as I haven't used either in restricted
mode.

Isn't it a pity that the fbsd implementation of ZFS lacks such a
feature. Your anti stories of ZFS often show these aspects.
Almost none of your comments on zfs are valid in Solaris.

But hey, what the heck, use what you want. I don't write for SUN, I use
ZFS on all systems and it never disappointed me. It's blazingly fast,
very flexible, configurable. Stripes, mirrors, it's all so easy.
It will be even better in time.

Conclusion: Wojciech Puchar is against zfs. so what. I belong to the
pro's fwiw.

Well, no, because I can't do this:

  # dd if=_.disk.full of=/dev/acd0 bs=64k

If I do this:

  % cdrecord -v -immed driveropts=burnfree dev=1,0,0 -data _.disk.full

then try to boot the machine from the CD-R, I get a "-" cursor
for a second or two, then it switches over to the hard disks to
boot from.

Okay, it's possible I messed up the compilation options or
something.  Is the cdrecord command above the correct procedure
to use to build a bootable nanobsd CD-R?

If you are a total "noob" as you put it, you will have to put 
considerable amounts of time into this, understanding basic UNIX / 
FreeBSD concepts and such. May I suggest you start reading the handbook 
right away:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook

Concerning the compatibility of your hardware, read the release notes:

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.0R/hardware.html

(I suggest you go with FreeBSD 7 unless there is any specific reason not to)

The specs seem ok to me.  The graphics card is unimportant for a server 
(nvidia cards work OK in general) and according to the specs you have a 
Marvel LAN supported by the msk(4) driver. It should work fine. To use 
your 4Gb RAM efficiently, go with the 64bit version of FreeBSD (known as 
"amd64")

Hi,

I'm trying to determine what sound card a notebook has.  There are
three relevant dmesg lines below, but looking at freebsd's hardware
notes, I can't tell whether I should use the snd_ich(4) driver for an
Intel ICH4 card, the snd_hda(4) driver for an 82801 card or a sigmatel
card.  Any suggestions?


%cat /var/run/dmesg.boot| grep pcm
pcm0: <Intel ICH4 (82801DB)> port 0xee00-0xeeff,0xe000-0xe03f mem
0xffaff800-0xffaff9ff,0xffaff400-0xffaff4ff irq 4 at device 31.5 on
pci0
pcm0: [ITHREAD]
pcm0: <SigmaTel STAC9750/51 AC97 Codec>

Thanks,

Joey

Do a lookup on what pciconf -lv says...then do a search on Google to find the chipset driver.

One important note may be that you will probably want to use the 64-bit
version of FreeBSD (called AMD64) to use all that RAM. However, as far
as I know, the proprietary nvidia drivers will not work in 64-bit mode.
Since you don't seem to be aiming at massive graphics performance,
perhaps the open source drivers will suffice?

I think the idea is to look at /dev/sndstat:

DING! ozzmosis@blizzard [~]cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel ICH2 (82801BA)> at io 0xd800, 0xdc40 irq 10 bufsz 16384 kld snd_ich (1p/1r/1v channels duplex default)
2:00 ozzmosis@blizzard [~]grep snd_ich /boot/loader.conf
snd_ich_load="YES"

But it is far from moot if you are interested in the actual threat  
against your system.  In a sense, using a less popular OS is a form of  
"security by obscurity" which is not to be heavily relied on, but  
still it does make a real, practical, difference in the case that you  
described.

> and a determined cracker would create his own program.

You have not articulated what you are trying to defend against.  Do  
you anticipate determined crackers going after your particular system  
and what resources will such attackers have?  We can't talk about a  
system being "secure" in general, but the question needs to be framed  
in terms of "secure against what".

> That said I hope there are, actually, no vulnerabilities.

That is demanding too much.  What you need to hope for is a  
combination of "no known unpatched vulnerabilities at the moment" and  
more importantly "procedures and practices to keep things that way".   
As Bruce Schneier likes to say, "Security is not a product but a  
process".  The vast majority of actual system compromises involve  
failure of system administrators to keep systems patched and follow  
good security practices.

One reason that I switched from Linux to FreeBSD is that I find it  
much easier to maintain FreeBSD, particularly in terms of security  
updates.  I have been responsible for Linux machines that did get  
rooted because I was having problems keeping them up-to-date for a  
variety of reasons.

> [Security through obscurity is just an illusion]

In your post you mentioned concern about spyware.  It is not an  
illusion that FreeBSD has not been targeted by spyware writers while  
Windows has.  Even if some of that is the consequence of security by  
obscurity, it is no illusion.  Of course we need to understand that  
those security benefits from obscurity are fragile, but we shouldn't  
dismiss it entirely.

Again, what sorts of benefits such things may add (or subtract)  
depends on the nature of the attacker.

Cheers,

Especially:

If you are not sure which driver to use, you may try to load the 
snd_driver module:

# kldload snd_driver

This is a metadriver loading the most common device drivers at once. 
This speeds up the search for the correct driver.

> Intel Quad Core Extreme 3Ghz, LGA775
> Asus P5K-E Motherboard (P35 chipset, Onboard LAN)

I have the same motherboard, and it runs great on 7.0-RELEASE (amd64).
I do not, however, use the onboard ethernet controller. I use a pair
of em cards, so I can't speak to the Marvell Gigabit chipset and
whether it works or not. The onboard ethernet on the Asus P5B is an
re, and works fine in 7-STABLE.

I also recently put a SATA DVD-RW into this box, which works well with
atapicam (for cdrecord/growisofs), but it doesn't work with burncd.
Not a huge deal, but just an FYI.

Here is my dmesg and pciconf -l -v output. Note that the ICH9
controller shows up as "Intel AHCI controller", but it works great
(full performance).

Thanks,
Josh

Joey,
More than likely snd_ich but best bet is to:
kldunload snd_driver
kldload snd_ich
dmesg
if pcm0 doesn't load then:
kldload snd_hda

BTW, this instruction is for Windows, but the approach is suitable for
FreeBSD as well.

I just got an Intel Dual gigabit nic that I planned to use with  
FreeBSD 7-STABLE. On startup neither of the Nics attach to the kernel.  
They give up with an error message of:

      "Setup of shared code failed"

I hunted around on Google for this last night and found something  
about the cards working okay so long as I turned off BSM but I  
couldn't find any reference to what BSM was or how to turn it off.

I'd like to get this card working in my FreeBSD box. Any help would be  
appreciated.

I'm running a Fileserver on a now ancient Asus A7V-E box. Until last  
week this box ran FreeBSD 6.2 and it worked okay. Now it runs 7.0- 
STABLE. Before last night I had a pair of PCI Dec Tulip Nics in it.  
I've since replaced that with a Dual Intel Pro/100 (yes, 100, not 1000  
if you saw my other post). My problem is with ACPI.

When I boot the box with ACPI enabled it cannot allocate all the  
resources needed for both tulip nics.

When I boot the box without ACPI, it can allocate the resources to  
make everything work but I cannot reboot or shutdown the box.

I'd like some suggestions about how I can either tune the box so that  
the shutdown commands work right with ACPI enabled.

I'd accept some suggestions about how to get the box to properly  
allocate resources with ACPI disabled.

Currently the box works because I've reduced the resources by using a  
Dual Nic but if the time comes that I have to add some other resources  
I'd like to have some options.

What precautions could I take to prevent users from writing to a portion 
of a ZFS mount point that might fill up the underlying filesystem that 
wouldn't impede writes to that ZFS mount point.  For example:

/foo/bar/volume

If some program accidentally started writing to /foo/bar, as far as I 
understand, it would end up filling / and not the zpool. 

I could re-do this so that /zpool1 was /foo to mitigate this - though 
I've already established production mounts pointing to /foo/bar/volume 
(which is actually zpool1/volume).  Would changing zpool1 to /dce create 
havoc, since I'm NFS exporting /foo/bar/volume.


Thanks.

FreeBSD is "unfortunately" quite popular OS, but yes - much less popular 
than linux, not to mention windoze.

I'm sorry, but I didn't quite get it. Do you mean that if I subscribe to the
newsgroup which mirrors the list, and if I answer the question in the
newsgroup, then it will be shown properly in the freebsd mailing lists as
well? I mean, is the mirroring one way or both-ways?

Thanks :)

I tried to telnet to smtp.gmail.com, but it didn't work. Is that what you
meant?

The mirroring is one-way only.  What I do in Thunderbird is to hit
"Reply to All", delete the address lines beginning with "muc*" and add
the address line "To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org".

I believe you said you were using a browser, so I don't know if what I
describe can be done through some web site.  But it works fine for me in
Thunderbird, and it will probably work fine in any other newsreader.

During a marathon session last night, I did just that.  I changed the seque=

in the "outer" file to fread many records at a time.  Then I switched to mm=
ap() for the=20
random-access file.  The results were much better, with good CPU usage and =

Also done.  I'd gotten some technical advice from Slashdot (which speaks vo=
lumes for my=20
clueless, granted) that made it sound like a good idea.  I changed almost a=
ll the=20
mallocs into static buffers.

I'm still offering that shell account to anyone who wants to take a peek.  =

Pretty much. The problem you're having is caused partially by being 
unable to manually set headers in many mail clients. If you have a 
server with Sendmail set up which can send outbound email you might be 
able to do it that way as well, by copying the message from the web and 
then sending the whole text instead of just the body.

I have an smbfs share that mounts at boot time on a 6.3-STABLE system.
I want to rsync from a FreeBSD directory to the Windows share.  For
reasons I seem to not be able to discover, rsync insists on copying
every file, every time.   The exact command is:

    rsync -va /FreeBSD-dir-tree /windows-mount

I have tried -O -no-p  without success. 

I'm guessing this is a problem mapping the filesystem semantics from
FreeBSD to SMB so that rsync always thinks the files on the
destination SMB share are out of date, but I cannot seem to find the
right magic to overcome this.


Ideas?  (And TIA),

Inevitably, as soon as I posted this, I finally discovered the problem,
which is worth describing here to save other people the same suffering:

1) The problem occurs when the SMB mount is a FAT formatted drive.
   In this case, it was a USB drive plugged into the WinXP machine
   being used as removable backup medium.

2) The problem occurs because the FAT file entry has insufficient
   resolution to maintain exactly the same timestamp as FreeBSD.
   i.e., FreeBSD (and I presume Linux or other Unix variants) have
   a finer timestamp resolution than does FAT.

3) The fix is to tell rsync to not be so fussy about exact timestamp
   matches:

     rsync -va --modify-window=1  src dest

4) This assumes that the FreeBSD server and the Windows machine
   hosting the share are more-or-less synchronized to the correct
   absolute time.  If they are not, the --modify-window= parameter
   may have to be larger to accommodate the difference in what each
   machine thinks the "correct time" is.

Does gstripe read an entire stripe at a time?  If so, why do that instead o=

just reading a few requested blocks?  If not, then is there any advantage=20

Very true, however having a large scale usage of FreeBSD (for example, if a=

such a large scale adoption in the medium to long term then it is a=20

This is a general enquiry.  What had sparked my interest in this subject is=

the above mentioned article.  In this case it is a workstation used to acce=

and manage account and cash flows.  The threat would be anyone gaining acce=

Specifically, the two threats would be remote attach (such as spyware being=

the username and password safe will be the only option?  Assuming their is =

Good point!  Thank goodness for automatic signed incremental updates (that=

	Can I upgrade a system from 6.2 to 6.3 by changing the 

*default tag=RELENG_6_2
line in my cvs-supfile to 
*default tag=RELENG_6_3

	Then, I just do the usual remaking of the world and
kernel.

	I don't know if I missed it, but I did not even find the
word 'upgrade' in the handbook table of contents.

	I have a string of 6.2 systems that need to be 6.3 and
can't be down for much more than the reboot time.

#*default tag=.
*default tag=RELENG_6_2
*default host=cvsup15.us.freebsd.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/var/db
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix

src-all

	Thsnks.

Sounds cool. I had one going in an older laptop as early as 5.x-STABLE  
I'm pretty sure it's strongly supported by FreeBSD. Did you have to do  
anything special to get it going?

I'm running FreeBSD 7.0, and I have 'ntpd_enable="YES"' in my /etc/rc.conf.
Every time I reboot my server, I get two ntpd processes:

nlandys@daffy# ps -U root | grep ntpd
  PID  TT  STAT      TIME COMMAND
  571  ??  Ss     0:00.12 /usr/sbin/ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf -p
/var/run/ntpd.pid
  686  ??  S      0:00.00 /usr/sbin/ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf -p
/var/run/ntpd.pid

When I run '/etc/rc.d/ntpd stop' it kills the first process in the output
above but leaves the second one.  I must manually kill this second process
and then run '/etc/rc.d/ntpd start' to get ntpd to function normally,
otherwise [while there are 2 processes running] ntpd does not seem to keep
the clock in sync.  Please help.

Thank you all for your replies.  It was snd_ich.

And sorry for the double post to the list.  Despite having the list
option "Receive your own posts to the list" set, it seems when I send
messages to list@freebsd.org I don't get my own copy.  I reread the
mailing list info on the freebsd.org page and it said to send messages
to freebsd-list@freebsd.org so I thought the option to send to
list@freesbd.org must have been removed and only to
freebsd-list@freebsd.org must be working now.  Strangely, when I send
to freebsd-list@freebsd.org, I get my own copy.

Yeah, my first instinct was to assume that the em driver isn't in the  
GENERIC kernel to so I did this:

      # kldload -v if_em

Which promptly fired back a bunch of errors about duplicate symbols.  
At that time I figured that the em module is already loaded into the  
GENERIC kernel. This was confirmed by doing:

      # grep '^device.*em' /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC
      device          mly             # Mylex AcceleRAID/eXtremeRAID
      device          em              # Intel PRO/1000 adapter Gigabit  
Ethernet Card
      device          nge             # NatSemi DP83820 gigabit Ethernet
      ...

I can try that later but given that the em driver is already in the  
kernel I don't expect it to bear fruit. However, can you do a kldstat  
on your machine with the em card? It will tell me if there is some  
firmware module or something that I'm missing.

P.S. In digging around on Google I found kern/117926 in the Bug

Doesn't look like there's a firmware module though.

This is normal. ntpd spawns a secondary process to check timesyncs on
startup. Have a look at the parent-child links with "ps l". It goes
away after it has decided which time-source to use.

I beg to differ. There is far more desktop particularly multimedia 
development in Linux - lots more people and much wider range of 
interests. Programs that are not available for FreeBSD include 
Cinelerra, projectM and (I think, but please prove me wrong) the 
climateprediction.net BOINC project. If you only want applications that 
are in the ports tree (and the vast majority are) chances are they are 
pretty current and work well, in which case FreeBSD makes an easy to 
maintain, fast, stable desktop.

It depends how much of a hacker you are. If you want out-of-the-box and 
you don't mind kde then choose between pcbsd or desktopbsd. If you want 
out-of-the-box and gnome I think you are out of luck. If you don't mind 
diy FreeBSD is your toolbox.

There was a discussion about this in questions a while back. Look for 
subject FreeBSD & Linux distro.

I think I did just about the worst thing I could do to my
organization's FreeBSD-4.11 email server today:

I was trying to free up space on the root disk and attempted to copy
the /etc directory to another disk, /new/etc, then delete and symlink
the old location to the new:

  $ sudo cp -Rp /etc /new/etc
  $ sudo rm -rd /etc/; sudo ln -s /new/etc /etc

Of course, with the sudoers file in the original /etc directory, the
first "sudo" command to remove the /etc directory disabled the second
"sudo" command's ability to run.

Now, I cannot log in as a privileged user to copy or move /new/etc
back to /etc. (Because the password files were also in /etc.) I've
tried booting into Single User mode with "boot -s" at the boot prompt,
only to receive a "mountroot>" prompt wanting to know where to find
the root filesystem. I've also tried booting from my installation
distribution, but can't get out of the installation without the
machine rebooting.

To make a long story shorter, is there any hope for getting a
privileged user account on this machine to move /etc back to where it
should be?

What type of disk(s) do you have in the box?

I can't remember the exact syntax of the mountroot prompt, but I'll 
break one of my machines here to 'remind' myself if you know what driver 
  you use for your root partition.

ad (IDE)
ar (RAID)
da (SCSI)

...etc.

Trying to apply the aforementioned patches, I ran into this during 
buildkernel. I'll remove src, re csup and rebuild and try again. If 
there is a more appropriate list for this, please let me know...

Apparently it won't read anything larger than your stripe size which  
defaults to a miserable 4k.

Doesn't appear the driver collects multiple pending reads and merges  
them into one transaction. Don't know if ATA/SATA allows that or not,  
believe it was called "scatter/gather" in SCSI.

Built a gstripe volume a while back and played with various stripe  
sizes trying to maximize KB/t as shown in "systat -v" during massive  
file read/writes. A stripe size of 131072 (128k bytes) was the best I  
could get at about 43 KB/t. About 25 MB/sec each on two drives that  
are capable of 4x that on a Mac Pro (about 55 MB/sec single drive on  
inner tracks to 100 MB/sec on outer, reading with md5).

Anyway, throughput was terrible with the default 4k stripe.

If there is a tuning knob that I have missed, would appreciate being  
told what.

IIRC vinum's default stripe was about 87.5kB and "systat -v" reported  
transactions of that size.

It may be easiest to boot a live CD (FreeSBIE, or a FreeBSD-7 install
disc 1 should work), mount both of your hard drives from it, and put
/etc back where it belongs that way.

This is a very good point, but in this case, if its only /etc that has 
been relocated, the system is at mountroot> because fstab can't be found.

If the disk type is known, it is as simple as typing the appropriate 
location of the root fs at that prompt and the system will come up. 
Under single user, the OP would have full access to everything to revert 
the changes (perhaps other disk areas with binaries may have to be 
mounted manually as well)...

I'm off to try it. I've got a system here with a da device. I'll fsck up 
/etc/fstab, reboot, and report back with the appropriate mountroot> 
prompt entry...

(..snip..)

..change /etc/fstab to mount root to /dev/ad15a, reboot:

mountroot>

# mountroot>ufs:/dev/da0a {ENTER}

...machine boots up.

To the OP...if you know what your disk type is, you CAN get it to 
continue to mount root at the mountroot prompt.

Furthering that, you can also fsck and mount your other disk mountpoints 
in order to gain access to your editing binaries.

There is no need to use an external resource to boot the machine from if 
you are already aware that the only thing that got fsck'd up is the 
mountpoints in the fstab (or, like in this case, the file was 
unavailable entirely). The disk structure is still the same, and the 
system can see this with manual intervention.

OP: at the mountroot> prompt, try this: ufs:/dev/ad0s1a

and see if you get anywhere.

I'm sorry to reply to my own posts, but I'd like to point out that this 
exact scenario is a very good reason as to why I make either a digital 
or printout copy of my /etc/fstab file of every machine I run.

should not the "esmpt:" rather be "esmtp:" most of teh literature that
i have read recently says it the esmtp way .. i live with dsylexia
amongst other neurological disabilities and need to double/triple/add a
few more time to check things before i am confident of success (not
failing) based on 'spelling' alone. 

> In /etc/mail/domaintable:
> mail.caamora.com.au
> and rebuild domaintable.db

i used to run a uucp mail service for several clients back in teh
fidonet days (internet to fidonet gateway) and this made sence then,
now i fali to understand the need .. i just do not know and would
appreciate a bit of an explanation please ..

mail.caamora.com.au is an alias (in the dns file and /etc/hosts) for
the machine seaholm.caamora.com.au which is the primary mailserver for
the domain .caamora.com.au ... is not tthe domaintable used to remap an
old domain to a new domain name after some soprt of a change or to use
names in 'rule 3' mappings .. if i have missunderstood my readings i
apoloise, i am new to sendmail fiddlings, i set it up ten years ago and
it worked i now have to relearn who and why .. my disabilities have
gotten a bit worse because of teh medicines i need to take and this
makes learning a bit on teh harder side .. but not impossible <gentle
smile>

 
> in /etc/mail/local-host-names:
> caamora.com.au

check, it was done long time ago
 
> and double check your MX record and /etc/hosts

 i looked at my dns files and found a small disaprity from a name
change about 2 years ago, i made teh change in teh main file but forgot
to carry it into teh reverse lookup file, grrrr.

as for the MX records they have been much teh same for about 15 years,
i like long term stability makes for peace of mind <grin>, the down
side is that when things go wrong like this, it is a nightmare to
recall what, how did/done way back when the system was built/changed
last .. makes for lots of work sometimes.

> Once that is all done, execute:
> /etc/rc.sendmail stop
> wait until all instances die then:
> /etc/rc.sendmail start

ok .. did teh checks, made teh changes, even the domaintable, though i
don;t understand how it works, the only thing i don't do as you wrote
was teh esmpt .. i used teh more popular esmtp ??  

apart from fixing teh esmtp mistype i did it all and checked teh mx
host my dns setup and still its dead in teh water, still defering all
mail out from this box.

might it have some thing to do with this line in teh sendmail config
line it is commented out ??

the one reference that i found on teh world wide internet made some
sort of reference to this being the cause in the linux machine that had
a similar issue back in 2003 ???

# SMTP client options
#O ClientPortOptions=Family=inet, Address=0.0.0.0


what would happen if i uncommented this line in teh sendmail.cf file ?

also, what use are teh sendmail config files that are named /etc/mail/host,name.cf

when i forst installed freebsd in this machine it built these files and
since then nothing has touched the two files .. what are they for what
do they do in teh sendmail hiearchay ??? please ?

this is a really confusing situation, i've got nowhere else to go for
informations

much appreciations for teh help.

kind regards

jonathan

I don't remember about FreeBSD 4, but last time I dealt with a broken 
fstab on FreeBSD 6 I could just press tab to get a list of valid block 
devices. Then, I could just try each one until it worked - very useful 
for when you move IDE cabling around and the drive numbers change.

I believe most of those sorts of enhancements would be provided by the 
applications or desktop environment. Gnome or KDE should have similar 
language support regardless of OS. However, you may have to enable 
language-specific features when building each port - run 'make config' 
before building to be sure there aren't any optional but disabled 
options related to language support.

There are also language specific ports of some applications - check the 
ports tree in /usr/ports/chinese/ for information (after installing).

How much money are we talking about?  If it is billions of NZD that is  
one thing, if it is thousands of NZD that is another.  The question is  
would someone with resources make a concerted effort to specifically  
target your system?  If so, you should hire a local professional.

If your concern is more about the kinds of wide spread automated  
attacks, then really it's just a matter of doing the basic sorts of  
things.  Disabling root SSH logins, have your perimeter firewall check  
for unusual out-bound traffic, and of course, keeping the system  
properly updated.

I haven't played around with it, but you might want to look at  
Mandatory Access Control (described in the Handbook).  It's something  
that has been on my "to learn" list for a while, but I am getting  
through that list very slowly.  From what you've said, it sounds like  
you are talking about a multi-user system.  Something like MAC really  
may be the best approach to preventing individual users from being  
tricked into doing stupid things.

> or physical access (in which case keeping

For a typical machine, physical access means all access.  If I have  
physical access to a machine, I may be able to boot it from my own  
boot media (a CD for example) and then read everything on the hard  
disks.  I could remove the disks and copy them.  I could install a  
physical keystroke logger between the keyboard and the box.  There  
really is a lot that can be done with physical access.

So if you have reason to believe that attackers would have physical  
access to the machine, you should use encrypted file systems.

Note that with both MAC and encrypted file systems you run an  
increased risk of locking yourself out of the system by accident.

So what measures you wish to take, with their additional costs and  
risks, depends on a careful and realistic view of what the threats are.

I've enjoyed this discussion.

Cheers,

After a fresh installation of freeBSD 7.0, I am unable to communicate
with any hosts beyond the local subnet.  All important values
(gateway, netmask,etc) were copied from other unix hosts on the same
subnet.  Presumably I've either failed to include something important
or there is a conflict. Details follow...

thanks for any assistance,

ed

  Finally, the current situation is that I can ping hosts on the 128.32.157.*
subnet, but not anything beyond.

Hello

Currently, to find where a software is located under /usr/ports/, I
rune the "find" command. Is there a database that I could query
instead so that it gives out the whole path to that the application?

Thank you.

/usr/ports/net/samba3

Why didn't "whereis" find samba3? Do I need to run a command to keep
it up-to-date with "csup ports-supfile?

Thank you.

You can use 'make search name=3D' or 'make search key=3D'

For example in /usr/ports type:
  make search name=3D"samba" | grep Path

No joy.  Produces the same disk that cdrecord does, and boots
from hard disk instead.

I think that this is the problem: The BIOS knows how to boot
from a CD if and only if that CD is an "El Torito" bootable
image.  That is, the first sector of the CD is NOT a Master Boot
Record.  That's just a hypothesis based on the observation that
all of the successfully bootable CDs I have appear to be in "El
Torito" format.

I don't have a way to make such an image without using mkisofs.
Figuring out how to pack the nanobsd image in such a way that
mkisofs can make an "El Torito" bootable CD from it sounds
difficult, offhand.  Anybody know how to do this sort of thing?
Is it even possible?

I am not sure what was going wrong then, but I now have this working, both
with a Myson-based chipset device (ATA->USB) as well as a JMicron-based
device (SATA->USB).

I am not sure whether this is a factor, but I also added a USB v2 PCI card
to the box (it is an older Pentium IV with a motherboard that only supports
USB v1.1). The chipset of this card is Via. 

For several of the ext3 partitions, I had to run "fsck_ext2fs" first before
I could mount them.

Thanks for the various suggestions; they pointed me in the right direction.

to make a freebsd CDROM bootable you need to use the /boot/cdboot as the
loader and make an ISO image. the nanobsd procedure creates a ufs disk
image from what I understand.
Try mounting the disk image
mdconfig -a -t vnode -u 11 -f /path/to/image/_.disk.full
mkdir /mnt/image
mount /dev/md11 /mnt/image
(might be /dev/md11s1a or similar, see whats created and find what works.)

Then make an ISO of the mounted nanobsd image

mkisofs -J -R -no-emul-boot -b /boot/cdboot \
-iso-level 3 -o nanobsd.iso /mnt/image

Then either burn it to CD or install qemu to see if it boots before
making another coaster.

I havent tried this exactly but this should work, may need polishing though.

i don't know if -J is needed (rather not), and -iso-level 3 too, but it is 
OK.

Ugh.  It seems like there are a few possibilities here, and I'm not sure=20
which is actually true.

Say you have two drives, striped.

1) Ideally, you could have a 512 byte stripe size.  A program tries to read=
=20
4KB.  Then, gstripe would issue a single request to each drive to read 4=20
blocks and interleaves the results.

2) Less ideally, you'd have a 128KB stripe size.  A program requests a=20
single block, but gstripe reads the entire stripe to fulfill the request. =
=20
Not so hot for random access.

3) Worst, maybe?  You have a 512 byte stripe.  A program reads 4KB.  gstrip=
e=20
reads 512B from da0, then 512B from da1, then 512B from da0, etc.

Actually, I guess you could also have a combination of #2 and #3, where=20
small reads fetch an entire stripe while large reads are broken into lots=20
of tiny ones.

So, back to gstripe.  Which of those is it most like?

Pass it along, would ya?  :-)

Oh, and don't forget to make your partition offsets

Come to think of it I didn't try setting the stripe size larger than the
ATA max transaction size of 128k.

Still, I don't understand what is going on when I use md5(1) on a
gigabyte file hosted on a gstripe partition with 128k stripes that
"systat -v" reports transactions are usually between 42k and 43k each?

On a non-striped filesystem the same operation runs 126k to 127k
transfers.

Transfer bandwidth seems to be limited by the number of transactions per
second more than the size of the transaction.

True, I just grabbed a command line I've used in the past., like I said,
needs polishing.

Even more unlikely, why are *my* numbers almost identical to yours?  Here's=

Hi all,
   I guess this is a rare issue, but "I think" my amule, when no
upload limit, eats up my swap, and cause amule to crash. After I set
limit to 10K, the mule runs fine. I have 1G ram and 2G swap, and
without upload limit, amule crash very often. does anyone know what is
going on?? thank you!

yes it is.

max transaction doesn't begin on boundary. may (usually will) start

inprobable.


BTW you mean ATA max transaction or FreeBSD default MAXBSIZE, which

yes it is.

max transaction doesn't begin on boundary. may (usually will) start 
somewhere inbetween. making stripe size >>max transaction makes it 
inprobable.


BTW you mean ATA max transaction or FreeBSD default MAXBSIZE, which 
i change to 1MB

Even more unlikely, why are *my* numbers almost identical to yours?  Here's=

a snapshot of mine at this very second:

Disks   da0   da1   da2   da3   da4
KB/t  26.77 42.05 41.70 41.98 41.70

where da[1-4] are my gstripe providers with a 128KB stripe size.  I find it=

unlikely that our workloads are so similar that we'd coincidentally have=20
almost the exact same values.

Ugh.  It seems like there are a few possibilities here, and I'm not sure=20
which is actually true.

Say you have two drives, striped.

1) Ideally, you could have a 512 byte stripe size.  A program tries to read=
=20
4KB.  Then, gstripe would issue a single request to each drive to read 4=20
blocks and interleaves the results.

2) Less ideally, you'd have a 128KB stripe size.  A program requests a=20
single block, but gstripe reads the entire stripe to fulfill the request. =
=20
Not so hot for random access.

3) Worst, maybe?  You have a 512 byte stripe.  A program reads 4KB.  gstrip=
e=20
reads 512B from da0, then 512B from da1, then 512B from da0, etc.

Actually, I guess you could also have a combination of #2 and #3, where=20
small reads fetch an entire stripe while large reads are broken into lots=20
of tiny ones.

So, back to gstripe.  Which of those is it most like?

Pass it along, would ya?  :-)

Oh, and don't forget to make your partition offsets

Yes, of course this is possible. Think of the the FreeBSD installation
images that boot from CD too. I did this already with a custom
distribution, but I don't remember the steps right now. /boot/cdboot is
the boot code that should do this. Take a look at
/usr/src/release/i386/mkisoimages.sh.

Come to think of it I didn't try setting the stripe size larger than the
ATA max transaction size of 128k.

Still, I don't understand what is going on when I use md5(1) on a
gigabyte file hosted on a gstripe partition with 128k stripes that
"systat -v" reports transactions are usually between 42k and 43k each?

On a non-striped filesystem the same operation runs 126k to 127k
transfers.

Transfer bandwidth seems to be limited by the number of transactions per
second more than the size of the transaction.

Is this meant to be trolling?

For glitzy, bells-and-whistles desktop featuritis, I find that open
source Unix-like OSes actually do better in general than MS Windows Vista
and even MacOS X (though at least with MacOS X you can install the X
Window System and get much the same functionality that you can with a
Linux distribution or BSD Unix system):

  http://sob.apotheon.org/?p=3D335

For actual productivity-enhancement, assuming you're a highly competent
computer user, I'd recommend against any of the GUI systems discussed at
that URL, and stick to window managers that just stay the heck out of
your way.  Good candidates include things like wmii, AHWM, Fluxbox, and
Sawfish.  Most people seem to prefer something between the two, however.

If someone wanted a "cool" desktop "experience", though, MS Windows is
about the last place I'd send 'em.

Well, okay, maybe I'd send someone there before OpenVMS, but that's kind
of getting far afield.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================

Last update $Date: 2005/08/10 02:21:44 $

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  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.

II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions

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 freebsd-questions-request@FreeBSD.ORG.  In this message, amongst
other things, it told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical
message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list!

If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to
or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your
subscription page at:

  http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/me@me.org
  
(obviously, substitute your mail address for "me@me.org").  You can
also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to:

  freebsd-questions-request@freebsd.org
  
with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the
quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions.

You must know your password to change your options (including
changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe.
  
Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list
passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you
prefer.  This reminder will also include instructions on how to
unsubscribe or change your account options.  There is also a button on
your options page that will email your current password to you.

  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 or -hackers?
=========================================

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers.  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/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/index.html,
     and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at
     /usr/share/doc/en/books/faq/index.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.

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.  When sending a new message, well, send a new message.  Don't
      reply to some other message, erase the old content and change
      the subject line.  That leaves an In-reply-to: header which many
      mail readers use to thread messages, so your message shows up as
      a reply to some other message.  People often delete messages a
      whole thread at a time, so apart from irritating people, you
      also run a chance of having the message deleted unread.

  4.  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.

  5.  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.

  6.  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.

  7.  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?

  8.  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.

  9.  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 trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.  The result is that most leading edge
computer books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception.  Inevitably, a
number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

"The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its
predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD".  Two of these have been reprinted
with corrections.  I maintain a series of errata pages.  Start at
http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata
information.

Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF
form.  Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to
download the entire book.  See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ 
for more information.

Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing?
Please let me know: I'm no longer constantly updating it, but I may be
able to help

the thing with windoze is that you don't have a choice - in fact, until
recently you couldn't even have multiple desktops.

with *nix and the creativity inspired by open source there are many,
many opportunities. i've been using ion for about a year having tried
and liked kde, gnome, fluxbox, even plwm and many others.

rather than merely playing with some personal options here and there to
customize it, you can actually make your desktop choice to the way you

Hello,

I'm trying to capture trafic beetween vgetty and an Olitec modem on a
FreeBSD 6.3 box.

I've loaded snp(4) via kldload and watch -co /dev/ttyd2 only captures
traffic sent from vgetty to the modem, not its responses.

Am I missing something trivial or is it a known behaviour ?

TIA.

Regards

Googling didn't help. Maybe anyone here would know.

Any time I am trying to make a call I get: "Call failed: problem with 
audio playback"
I use Skype port which is 2.0.0.68 with OSS on 70-STABLE.

I use the following device:
$ cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2007061600/i386)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> at io 0xdc00 irq 17 kld snd_emu10k1 [MPSAFE] 
(4p:1v/2r:1v channels duplex default)

It works, sound plays fine. I tried a different sound card and got the 
same problem with Skype.

As devfs is running by default, it seems to me that
it would be relatively easy to run with a readonly
root partition, assuming that the directories under
which writing is necessary (ie; /tmp, /var, /home)
are located in separate, writable partitions.

The main advantages are that none of the configuration
files or binaries in /etc and /usr (which may still
be on a separate readonly partition) are vulnerable
to attack (even from a local privilege escalation)
without remounting the partition as writable.

This used to be a very common setup in the *NIX
world, so I am surprised to find little to no mention
of it in the archives.

I set up my machine this way a couple of months back,
and have noticed some minor things (some few things
assume a writable /etc, notably including dump(8),
and the boot process update to /etc/motd).  Once these
have been rectified by relocating the files and setting
up symlinks, there have been no problems.

My questions are:
  - does anyone else do this?
  - if not, why not?

hi...

do you have some kind of installation/setup manual? 
that would be really interesting to see your steps, and try that myself.

I have some questions too:
- how do you handle updates/ installation of new software?
- how do you prevent someone who hacked the machine to remount '/' as 
  writable
- how do users update theirs passwords when '/etc' is read-only?

if you will set securelevel to prevent umounts - it may add much to the 
security.

but - the same time - you'll have to reboot system to change anything!

it's OK. users that REQUIRE lots of graphics etc.. don't usually make use 
of it. so what's wrong with windoze. right software for the right people.

in unix - as you say - you have a choice in every place. so that's good 
that "desktop usage" isn't "improved" in FreeBSD as this improvement == 
lack of choice.

for those who don't like to "hack the system", just have everything just 
put up and ready to use, there is already windows!

There aren't very many steps:
 	- install as per normal, but with the following on separate
 	  partitions:  /, /tmp, /var
 	  Most people usually put /usr on a separate partition too,
 	  as it makes software updates easier

 	  DO NOT put /etc on a separate partition, or you will have
 	  an unbootable system

 	- make a directory /var/etc (or other similar location in the
 	  writable portion of your filesystem)

 	- copy the necessary files to /var/etc and create symlinks
 	  in /etc of the form ../var/etc/<filename>
 	  The files I have done this for are dumpdates and motd
 	  Other files may be required if you run other daemons;
 	  I experimented with denyhosts, and therefore had
 	  hosts.allow there for a while

 	- update /etc/fstab to have 'ro' instead of 'rw' for / and /usr

 	- reboot or run
 		mount -u -r / ; mount -u -r /usr

 	  if you want to test whether things are working, just run
 	  mount and see whether things are ok for a while before
 	  updating /etc/fstab -- then any major panics can be solved
 	  with a reboot.



> I have some questions too:

By remounting before doing updates.  I don't do updates
that often, so this is not a problem for me.


> - how do you prevent someone who hacked the machine to remount '/' as
>  writable

You don't; at least not this simply.  The main advantages of
this strategy are protection against (a) accidental changes
by root users and (b) trojans, scripts and other naive rootkits.

Like most security ideas, it is simply a single step along the
way, and the usual rule applies -- anyone who actually has root
has the privileges to damage the system to any extent they like.


> - how do users update theirs passwords when '/etc' is read-only?

This is a larger problem, and one I had forgotten about as the
machine in question is a firewall/datashare that doesn't have
many users.  Things should work fine if you are running yp
or similar from another machine; alternatively a password
update script can be written to either (a) do the remount to
allow updating on the fly, or (b) queue the update until a
regular remount+update cycle (as many large shops do).

Certainly not a one-size fits all solution for everyone, but
I remain curious as to why this technique has fallen out of
favour.  Perhaps it is this weakness with local passwords that
has caused most people to give up the (relatively small)
security advantages in favour of simplicity?

Andrew.

Helllo....

I understand your problem (I was once a SCO user/programmer....)
well
the easy way is:  a disk of 20GB miminum...   
1) Install FreeBSD 7.0 RELEASE (choose your favorite lay out...) that
is /root, /var,swap, /usr  
in diferent slices....  swap is about 2Gb...  (later will hold
the /tmp)  /root is 512M... /var is 8Gb (or more ..)
/usr the rest of the disk....
2) during the installation process do not forget to set up the ethernet,
dns...   and install docs, 
    kernel sources, and PORTS
3) once the machine boots, and is in internet, setup the timezone using
tzsetup, fix the time using
    ntpdate -t 10 pool.ntp.org...  (this is important....)
4) update the ports with portsnap fetch update ..... 
5) install some shell with pkg_add -r bash
6) create a super user named admin or whaterver you want....
    echo PASSSSWORD | pw adduser admin -o -u 0 -g wheel
-s /usr/local/bin/bash -h 0
7) logout and login as admin.... 
8) go to the /usr/ports/www/apache22 and type make package, The system
will build your apache
for you....
9) put "apache22_enable=YES"  in /etc/rc.conf, start it with the
command  /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start.

Your are done....

There are 18600 ports you may want to try.....

I use the 64 bits FreeBSD... is very stable and incredible fast.....

This is a regular occurrence, but varies by source. Brand new fBSD 6.3 
machine, what more information do I need to provide?

Wednesday it was crashed by *pagedaemon* and about 15 hours earlier by 
*g_down*. This is the only record - thus far - to hit the syslog. Also 
it crashed twice today and has not recorded

I have an 8x1TB RAID5 on a HighPoint Tech RocketRaid, the primary drive 
is a 1TB drive partitioned three times. / 30G, 4G swap and the rest is /usr.

Please advise

Ryan

Did you read /usr/ports/UPDATING (20080318)? You should upgrade to 
compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 with linux_base-fc6. Maybe you might want 
to read the thread "linux 2.6 on 7.0-RELEASE" on freebsd-emulation 
first. First one this month: 
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-emulation/2008-June/thread.html

I get the same error message with compat.linux.osrelease=2.4.2 (fc-4). 
Changing to the totally unsupported compat.linux.osrelease=2.4.20, skype 
seems to work. As far as I understood, this is just luck, because 2.4.2 
is the only supported 2.4 version and 2.6.16 the only (experimentally) 
supported 2.6 version. (Other Linux syscalls are not implemented.)

Unsurprisingly, I can reproducibly crash googleearth with 2.4.20, while 
it runs fine with 2.4.2 -- 2.4.20 really only helps skype.

For me, running evil skype in an unsupported setting is acceptable.

Cheers,
Jan Henrik

Check and/or create /etc/nsswitch.conf so you are looking in files and dns 
for hosts.

Check or create /etc/resolv.conf make sure your upsteam DNS servers are 
listed in this file along with any local caching DNS servers.

To be of any use we need a backtrace.  See=20
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html
for details.  First you need to configure a dump device then when
the system crashes a crash dump will be written to /var/crash by
default.  You then run kgdb on the file to get the backtrace.

I "assume" that mail.caamora.com.au is the name the MX record points to, 
sendmail and most mail transfer applications strictly use the DNS MX record 
to resolve the names, and you need this entry to assure your server "knows" 
it is the recipient and sender for that domain.  Otherwise it tries to send 
the mail elseware and it becomes undeliverable as you had seen in the logs.

If you update DNS files, be sure to change the serial number in the file so 
the new file is propagated.

There are multiple instances of sendmail required to be run now.  Once uses 
submit.cf, and the other uses sendmail.cf  Typically you only need to 
change the .mc file that is used to build the sendmail.cf file.  Typically 
you can sue one of the sample freebsd.mc files in /etc/mail as a start to 
make the sendmail.cf file.

There are files installed in /etc/mail as samples and as running 
files.  However the sendmail.cf installed may need customization for your 
settings and any customization you may require.  I find it best to always 
build a sendmail.cf file, and then test it out.

If you make DNS or sendmail configurations changes be sure to restart these 
services so the new configurations are used.

Thanks to Steve, Dan and Andrew for offering suggestions for regaining 
access to my box!

I was finally able to mount / from the mountroot> prompt using 
"ufs:/dev/aacd0s1a" (this is a Dell PowerEdge server with a SCSI RAID5 
array.) Fortunately, there was an "/etc.old directory left over from the 
last patch level upgrade I did; that was enough to get the system 
booting normally so that I could copy back the former /etc directory 
that I had moved at the start of this whole fiasco.

I think I will start retaining electronic and hard-copy fstab files from 
my FreeBSD boxes for future reference, as Steve suggested in a later 
message.

  I've had to install Windows XP in dual boot on a freeBSD box, and of
course it erased the bootloader to replace it with its own. Now I'd like
to restore the freeBSD bootloader.

  I've tried booting with the install CD and I use the fdisk utility to
mark the fbsd partition bootable and then said I wanted to install the
freeBSD bootloader, but I didn't know how to make it actually write the
changes to the disk.

  So... is it possible to restore the bootloader this way? Maybe I could
install lilo from a live CD but I don't want to install grub from
windows because I'll probably remove it soon, but I think lilo just
places itself in the boot segment so it should be fine.

  Any help would be most welcome...

in the glitzy, unnecessary dancing rodents sense) without having to

Look in the tools folder on the FreeBSD install CD for booteasy.  Booteasy 
will run from Windows and install the boot loader.  It will also save the 
old MBR to a floppy, hard disk, or USB disk for safety.

	PEople,

	After a long time, I've got phpbb configured into mysql.
	I've downloaded phpBB2 and installed it.  My notes from 
	2003 fail here; it may be because my apache-2 isn't configured.

	Cann anybody clue me in?

	thanks much,

	gary

I'm sure. I could get different RAM this weekend, but that just makes me 
angry. I bought all the items from recommended lists on NewEgg two weeks

Buying good hardware improves your odds a lot, but failures can still happen.

Indeed, fdisk(8) can be used to do this.

i agree. i was rather amused when a friend told me recently she had gone
over to mac from xp and started raving about having discovered multiple
desktops. i told her i was happy for her and added that i did know what
these things were since we've had them for years in *nix.

in answer to Wojciech's "... there is already windows!", i don't think
there is anything 'wrong' with that os. in fact, i rather liked win95
and win98. on old machines back then win95 was a really easy install and
required only 50M - you had to work much harder to put on linux (especially X).

however, things are very different now and the *nix world offers a lot
more. if some people don't want this and prefer to pay for propriety,
more limited software then they can certainly find what they are
looking for with xp, vista and whatever else is conjured up.

I wrote a lame-ass script to do this:

$ more /home/chris/bin/findport
#!/bin/sh
#
# Find a port whose name contains the string supplied as argument
#
prev_dir=`pwd`
cd /usr/ports
#
make search key=$1 | grep Path | grep -v deps | grep -i $1
#
cd $prev_dir

there is alot of differents ways to search for a port that you are 
looking for. My first suggestion would be to read this article from the 
freebsd handbook; 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-finding-applications.html 
.
Some people enjoy using some websites to do their searches since they 
value that more information can be used to search.
Here are some of the sites :
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/
http://www.freshports.org/
http://www.freebsdsoftware.org/

These are ones that come to me as I am writing this, they're are most 
likely several other websites that will give you some similar 
information such as these.

I would suggest that you refer to the handbook when you ask yourself 
questions concerning the operating system. The handbook is a great 
reference that I even use quite often myself when I am in doubt on a 
certain subject.

gmane.org offers many mailing lists via its news.gmane.org server and 
most of the lists will allow posting. You need a real email address to
post, because the first one has to verified.

You don't have to do that, it's an option, just do a make config and
deselect it. 

If you are trying to to get the browser plugin to work, it probably
wont. The diablo java ports are precompiled binaries, currently built
against FreeBSD 6, and this is one of the few cases where compat6x
doesn't help. You need to build java from source e.g. with java/jdk15.

What notes?  What fails and how?  Show error output and logs.

Only if you provide background, a better description of the problem and the 
steps you've taken to troubleshoot it.  When seeking help on this list, you 
should follow this advice:

	I've read Greg's advice page; I did google for instructions OR 
	tutorial on installling phpbb2 , freebsd

	and foundnothing helpful. Since I did create the mysql lines,
	my'03 notes suggested tha it was timeto point my browser at the
	BBS.  aristotle is a jail without X so I used lynx.

	The only thing I seemto remember is that in 2003, phpBB2 was
	installed withthe data directory, /usr/local/www/data/
	Now itis installed in theweb ``root'' irectory, /usr/local/www

	Below is what happened with lynx.




p4 22:05 <Jail:: aristotle> [2672] lynx http://localhost/phpBB2/
							    404 Not Found
			       Not Found

  The requested URL /phpBB2/ was not found on this server.

STAGE 1

/*
 * mysql instruuctions
 */


STAGE 2 -- APACHE

# cd /usr/ports/www/apache13/ && make install clean

***downloads and installs apache***

STAGE 3 -- MOD_PHP4

# cd /usr/ports/lang/php4/ && make install clean

list of things i enable for php:
	GD2 bzip2 cracklib mcrypt mhash pdflib IMAP GDBM OpenSSL SNMP XML FTP
CURL gettext iconv recode pspell BCMath mcve sockets

	zlib and MySQL should already be selected, but DEFINITELY select them if
they are not.  One probably doesn't need any of the above options to run
phpBB...  I just like this set in case I use php for other things in the
future.

	because we enabled snmp it stops to asks some questions while compiling
those libraries.  i just took the defaults without deviation...

***downloads and installs mod_php4***

STAGE 4 -- PHPBB

# cd /usr/ports/www/phpbb/ && make install

# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh start
 apache#

open browser now and point to "http://localhost/phpBB2/"

fill in the following values according to the db we set up earlier:
Database Server Hostname / DSN:  localhost
Your Database Name:  phpbb
Database Username:  phpbb_user
Database Password:  XXXXXXXXX (starred out, of course) // was "bbuser"
Admin Email Address:  my@real.addreSS
Domain Name:  hostname.real.address (if you do not have a valid dns name,
		it is very important that you use your IP address here
		instead of a fake DNS entry.  phpBB creates it's page links
		dynamically with the value you enter here.
Server Port:  80
Script path:  /phpBB2/
Administrator Username:  Administrator
Administrator Password:  adminpass  (starred out again...)
Administrator Password [ Confirm ]:  adminpass

click "Submit" and on the next page click "Finish"

then back to the console...

# cd /usr/local/www/data/phpBB2/
# rm -rf install/

the web install says to make sure to remove /install and /contrib, but i
didn't find any /contrib directory in the version of phpbb that installed?
 guess we'll ignore that...

I seem to have two xorg-server packages on a FreeBSD system of mine, and
I'm not sure why.  With one of them, there's no problem:

  xorg-server-1.4_10,1        =3D  up-to-date with port=20

One of them won't upgrade:

  xorg-server-1.2.99.903_1,1  <  needs updating (port has 1.2.99.903_2,1)=
=20

  ** Port marked as IGNORE: x11-servers/xorg-server-snap:
          is outdated
  ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
          - x11-servers/xorg-server-snap (marked as IGNORE)

=2E . . and portaudit says it's vulnerable:

  Affected package: xorg-server-1.2.99.903_1,1
  Type of problem: xorg -- multiple vulnerabilities.
  Reference:
  <http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/portaudit/fe2b6597-c9a4-11dc-8da8-0008a18a9=
961.html>

Why do I have this xorg-server-1.2.99.903_1,1 package?  It appears to be
nothing but an older version.  Should I remove it, or figure out how to
upgrade it?  Is it actually just an older version of the same package, or
is it a different/separate package entirely?

Any help figuring this out would be appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion.  Those files already exist with valid
entries though.  In any event, it doesn't seem like a hostname problem
as I can nslookup arbitrary hosts and then try and then ping the IP
numbers directly which fails for hosts beyond the local subnet.  

It seems more like a router/gateway network configuration type of
problem. I've just discovered that when I ping the gateway's IP
address, I get no answer.  Now I know the gateway is functioning as
every other host on the network can reach the rest of the internet and
in fact, I've just successfully ping'd the gateway from the machine
where I'm writing this message. So I'm wondering what could cause this
or at least some way of approaching the problem. 

thanks

there is nothing wrong in any product as long as it's sold with normal 
free marked rules, and nobody is forced using it.

And that's the true problem with windows - that it is forced. for example 
- using our taxpayers money - it's in every school's computer and children 
have no choice but have their brain washed.
but it's OT.

it's not "more limited software", it's more limited from our point of 
view.

from their point of view unix is limited, because you can't just click 
"install" and get cool colourfull icons and windows.

And LET IT BE THAT WAY. so please do not "improve" FreeBSD in that aspect.

There are some problems with the 3945 wifi driver (wpi) but it works
under 7-STABLE. If you have 4965AGN you need iwn driver which is only (i
think) in -CURRENT (8.0)

I run Matlab (maybe R14SP3 or something similar) under FreeBSD 7-STABLE
on this laptop with linux_base-fc4.
I use i386 and not x64

There are 3 things that need to be configured in order to have a network 
connection on an initial start, the IP, Gateway and Route.
I am ruling out the fact that it might be the firewall, cause you state 
that this on an an initial install  and I would try another ether cable 
if after this setup it still doesn't work.

make sure both these entry are in your rc.conf :
ifconfig_vr0="inet 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.0.1"

You will need to replace "vr0" by your network card, and replace all IPs 
for your own. if you modify the settings in the rc.conf you can execute 
/etc/netstart in order for the settings to take effect.

Do you have access to the gateway?  If so, can you ping the new machine 
from there?  If not, check the arp table on the gateway to see if your 
new machine has shown up.  Check that 128.32.157.5/32 routes the same 
place as the rest of the /24.

Only things I can think of that haven't already been covered are 
firewalling on the gateway, a rogue route for the /32 on the gateway, 
and the arp table on the gateway being locked down or having a static 
entry (or really, really long expire times) for the IP address you've 
given newdewey.  Ordinarily I'd worry that you had a longer netmask on 
the gateway than on your new machine, but with dewey at .3 (which works, 
yes?), newdewey  at .5, and the gateway at .1, this would be hard to 
arrange.

Be careful with hetzner.de hosting, here is their answer:

The controller is compatible with the mainboard. With linux there are no
problems. FreeBSD is also not officially supported by us (only
Debian/Ubuntu/Suse).

Sorry, but it is not possible to buy a new model only for a few customers.

As you've probably read in my previous posts I'm having issues, most 
likely with the RAM.

How would I go about slamming the RAM in testing? I was figuring I'd 
drop from 4GB to 1GB and just push the board with the same cp -rvn 
commands I've been running in an attempt to populate my 7TB RAID5.

Also, am I using the wrong FS for the RAID? I partitioned it with gpt (1 
large slice) and formatted it with newfs but is there another way? A 
better way? I read about ZFS recently but I am sure the speed of reading 
from a RAID5 is lost with it's redundancies.

TIA,
Ryan

What do your apache logs say about this?  Look for an error associated with 
trying to find this phpBB2 location.  Does it exist?  Is your httpd.conf 
configured to make that location available?

Do you set CPUTYPE in /etc/make.conf?  There has been some discussion about 
this before; check the archives for some commonly suggested solutions.

I'm full of questions, I know... And I haven't been googling well lately 
but there seem to be a lot of you with a lot of knowledge and you're 
willing to share (as am I).

This machine is running a D2C E4600 which (as I understand) is a 64-bit 
cpu, but I'm running fBSD 6.3 which is *not* 64-bit? Might this have 
anything to do with the crashes? Is there a stable 64-bit version of 
fBSD I should install? Will it upgrade the 32-bit or should I go from 
scratch?

6.3 supports 64-bit amd64-compatible CPUs, and stability is on par with 
the 32-bit version.  Besides which, amd64 CPUs are full backwards 
compatible when run in 32-bit mode, so this is not the source of your 
problems.

you should run 64-bit version on 64-bit machine for performance, but 
32-bit version should work fine too.

An upgrade may be possible, but a new installation is "recommended".  Search

If this is a server than you almost certainly should go with the 64 bit

There's a reason I use FreeBSD rather than PC-BSD, or any of the others I
mentioned.

I run `portsnap fetch update` (among other things) almost daily, and did
so yesterday a couple of times in the course of trying to figure out
what's going on with that particular Xorg package before sending a
message to the list about it.

This is workload-dependent.  Some workloads run more slowly on a 64-bit 
CPU, others faster.

	We have an account on several FreeBSD systems that is
used for  automation. Several systems can talk to each other via
ssh by using public keys so that scripts don't have to hold
passwords.

	Last night, an account that has been working for years
suddenly won't let any of its cyber cohorts in without a
password.

	I bet I accidentally changed something sometime, but I
can't figure out what.

	The public keys hadn't changed since 2005 although
today, I blew them all away and made new ones which still don't
work on this one system but work on all others.

	There is no password expiration timeout (the first thing
I thought of) since the account is several years old.

	All other accounts on this same system with public keys
from their remote partners still work fine.

	The ownership and permissions look right on the account
directory.

	Does this sound familiar and what else am I missing?

	I can telnet in to the account on the localhost via the
usual password which you can't do on an expired account.

	I even did a stupid sort of measure which was to reset
the password to itself and that didn't change anything.

	Many thanks for other suggestions.

how about on the client computer? for instance, id_rsa is supposed to
be 600. the ownership should be set for the account on .ssh and
authorized_keys.

we had only one problem getting a mac to log in which was strange. the
client generated the id_rsa.pub and id_rsa keys. it wouldn't work - and
apparently all the permissions were set correctly at both ends.

so we did the whole thing from scratch again - and this time it worked.

conclusion: the system is picky about the rsa key. :D :D

If you upgraded one system to a new major version (sometimes point releases 
will cause a problem too) the system will regenerate its keys, so you need 
to then propagate the new keys.  Other than that, if you have a drive error 
causing the key files to not be readable is the only other time I've seen 
this problem.

could you please give an example of slower running FreeBSD/amd64 thing 
than FreeBSD/i386?

there are more memory usage sometimes, that's why i use 32-bit squid 
binary on 64-bit systems

Hi guys,

Today i was on my Freebsd6.1 logged from my notebook through SSH...somehow i
lost my Internet connection on my laptop; i realized that, cause i couldnt
type anything on ssh so i checked and i had lost internet connection....I
reset my router..connect through Internet, now working, to my BSD again and
i can see the old connections as ESTABLISHED.....They are hanged there cause
of the loss of my connection i guess....So my doubt and question was;
Is this normal behaviour, who is "in charge" of managing this? the TCP
stack, or can i config SSH...If someone who's got the time and willing to
explain, share thoughts about this, i ll be grateful...

Cheers,
Agustin

Precisely that.  If your application relies on memory I/O, it may run 
slower because data is typically bigger so takes longer to copy.  Some 
java applications can fall into this category, for example.

thanks. i don't know if squid runs slower (it consumes little CPU anyway)

	Thank you!  This makes me feel down-right stupid. It
just slipped my mind. I've kind of gotten out of the habit of
looking at auth.log since we put the system in question behind a
firewall and it is not accessible from the general Internet any
more.

sshd[1746]: Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory 
/usr/home/automation

	I said that the ownership looked okay for that
directory. It needed to be 755 so everybody on the system in
question can at least look at files in it. Somehow, yesterday or
the day before, I accidentally had it set to 775 which is not
good. I think I remember realizing I was in the wrong directory,
once, and that may have been when I did it.

	sshd and sendmail will both refuse to operate on files
that are writable by other than the owner. I had looked at those
permissions several times and the fact that it was
drwxrwxr-x instead of drwxr-xr-x
hadn't sunk in yet.

	Many thanks.

Martin

	ah, good point!  hadn't thought of checing the error log.

	Below is the entry from 11june08.  (10.47.0.250 == my jail,
	aristotle.) what to i add to httpd.conf?  sorry, but
	i'veforgotten if i needed to had to set up my three phpbb
	forms as "virtual pages" {or whatever} ; also there are 
	diffs between apacche13 and apache22.   my lan volunteer set
	up apache22 when my network collapsed lastt winter and i 
	did not watch.

	Hm. The virtual sites have been moved to the apache22 subdir
	./Includes/httpd-local.conf.

What problem are you trying to solve?  And this really is a question for the 
sendmail mailing list. :-)

Perhaps.

That seems pretty clear to me.  Apache is looking for phpbb in 
/usr/local/www/thought.org/phpbb, where it does not exist.  Fix that or 
configure apache to look in the appropriate location.

Not easily.  sendmail(8) defaults to binding to all IPs on the machine
(INADDR_ANY) and the IP it will use to send with will just be whatever
would be the default from the routing table to reach the destination.

You can control what interfaces sendmail will listen on by using the
DAEMON_OPTIONS() macro in /etc/mail/$(hostname).mc and you can
set what IP number the machine will use as the origin address using
the CLIENT_OPTIONS() macro.  However, CLIENT_OPTIONS() doesn't give
you any method of cycling through multiple IP numbers.

What could you do? Run four instances of sendmail in different jails
as outgoing mail relays, each bound to a different IP.  Supposing your
server is called 'smtp.your.dom.ain' then you can make that an A record
which returns those 4 different IP numbers.  Clients looking the server
up in the DNS will get a randomised list of IPs (or round-robin,
depending on the configuration of the DNS servers you're using).

Alternatively you can use one instance of sendmail and do NAT tricks
to rewrite the packets on the way out of the firewall.  See http://www.op=
enbsd.org/faq/pf/nat.html and the 'NAT LOAD BALANCE' example
in pf.conf(5).  Note however that you should take care to ensure that
the hostname your MTA helos as matches whatever IP or IPs are ultimately
used in the connection to the other MTA, or your message may well be
refused as likely to be spam.

There are also recipes I've seen on the comp.mail.sendmail newsgroup
for running sendmail with multiple virtual identities depending on the
sender address of the e-mail, which isn't exactly what you asked for
but might be good enough.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

All AMD & Intel "x86" processors made in the last several years have the 
traditional x86 32 bit instruction set, as well as AMD's 64 bit set.

mdmfs(8) has an example of a malloc-backed md device mounted with the
async option. Is there any point in doing this with malloc and vnode
devices? In neither case does a write to the file-system require a write
to a physical disk.

I would just compile x11-server/xorg-server and once it is done do a
pkg_delete on xorg-server-snap. Then install
xorg-server/xorg-server. What it is complaining about is
x11-servers/xorg-server-snap being marked as to be ignored, which it
should be now as it is a out of date snap shot of xorg-server from
some time back.

For something that large, ZFS would be my choice.

I take it that's not something I can do after the fact, right? I am not 
looking forward to redoing 1.6TB in file copying a second time

Should that be "x11-servers/xorg-server", instead of
"xorg-server/xorg-server"?

=2E . . or are you referring to something else?

I use a port that no longer is supported thru the regular ports.

p5-Text-ParseWords-3.1 Parse text into an array of tokens or array of arrays

** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
        - textproc/p5-Text-ParseWords (port directory error)

Have tried to remove it, but then I get the message that there are still 
other installed programs are using it.

Would the only possibility be that I excluded it from being update by 
adding it to pkgtools.conf or is there another way to correct this?

Ugidfw(8) can be used to help with the executable stuff. The same is
true for using a restricted shell. The important thing is making sure
to make sure the user can't execute any thing other than the few
commands they are suppose to. If allowed access to execute any thing
in a system bin/sbin path, you begin to run into issues with
interpreters, which are as good as being able to execute something
owned by them. You can remove permissions to access them, but that
strikes me as beginning to get a bit hairy in the long run.

I have the same exact problem. I upgraded from 6.2-RELEASE to 7.0-RELEASE a
while back, recompiled my installed ports, and since then I have problems with
OpenVPN.

I have a laptop (Windows XP SP2) at home and a desktop (FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE) at
my office in the university. I have installed Samba 3.0.28,1 on my desktop and
created a share. I can access the share from anywhere within the university
network. But our university network is behind a firewall which blocks all
incoming connections except SSH, so I cannot access my Samba share from home.
What I did was to use Putty to SSH to my desktop at office, setup and OpenVPN
client/server on my laptop/desktop computers, and forward all OpenVPN
connections to my desktop through the SSH connection using Putty. Then I could
connect to my Samba server. It used to work before upgrading to 7.0-RELEASE, but
after that I can't access my shares from home. I have confirmed that my Samba
share is working fine by accessing it from another computer in the university
network, so the only culprit is OpenVPN. It connects, but apparently something
is wrong and I can't access my data...

Any ideas?

Thanks...

Not that I am aware of.

My big reason I would go with ZFS is it would make future updates
easier as you can do it on the fly if the disks are just being added
to a system.

The first step is find out what happened to it.  In this case MOVED tells us
this module has moved to core perl.  I believe upgrading perl and forcing
package delete will do it.  You may have to run pkgdb -F to delete the
dependencies.

You may want to make a note of the packages that depended on it.  I believe
they will still work after you upgrade perl, but you can rebuild them after
perl is upgraded if necessary.

Well, for vnode devices it does write to the disk, but that isn't the 
point; in both cases you are writing to the filesystem that is mounted 
on top of the md, so that will be faster if it is mounted async.

Ok, and since I have all 8 ports used on this SATA RAID controller I
won't worry about it.

I reinstalled 6.3-RELEASE for amd64 and I cannot get the DNS client to
work... I can do one lookup and then it stops working. I am sooooo
frustrated.

Yea, I know they do not officialy support FreeBSD, unluckily :-(

These interrupt storms are the only problem I have with hetzner.de...

Hello,

sysutils/fusefs-ntfs/files/README.FreeBSD refers to various environment 
variables, eg UBLIO_BLOCKSIZE and others. How do I find out what they 
are set to? set and printenv don't find them. I'm using standard csh and 
  FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE, fuse.ko is loaded and ntfs-3g works except it 
seems very slow.

thanks

Chris

	In that case, try "setenv" with no arguements.
