What are these used for? I know the uses of ones like daemon, UUCP, etc. But those confused me, and I dont like having anybody with root access except for root. I also do not want a 'games' user, will the system do anything weird if I delete that default user? Thanks again.

I just purchased a new SCSI adapter for my machine (Adaptec AHA-2940AU PCI UltraSCSI adapter) and I understand that it supports "bootable CD-ROMs" I have tried booting the FreeBSD CD-ROM (after, of course, enabling the "Support for bootable CD-ROMs" in the Adaptec BIOS), but it just hangs after the "system information" screen. I doo see the CD-ROM drive light flashing, however. And I see a message saying something to the effect that my CD-ROM drive is now known as the A: drive. I've tried everything I could think of, including removing all SCSI devices except the CD-ROM, removing all of my expansion cards except for video and the Adaptec, disabling the on-board floppy controller and/or my A: drive, etc. but I get the same results. My SCSI bus is properly terminated, BTW. Can anyone tell me what (if anything) I am doing wrong here? Please e-mail me if possible. Thanks in advance!

Btw., i've found BIOS rev 1.23 to be the last stable revision regarding El Torito (even though a number of El Torito features are missing that have supposed to be fixed in 1.25 or higher). So it wouldn't surprise me to see that they've broken more than the extended BIOS int 0x13 support. El Torito is already a large pile of sh*t, but the BIOS vendor imple- mentations of it seem to be even crappier. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 10 06:22:57 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id GAA20645 for questions-outgoing; Sun, 10 Aug 1997 06:22:57 -0700 (PDT) Received: from buffnet4.buffnet.net (buffnet4.buffnet.net [205.246.19.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id GAA20639 for ; Sun, 10 Aug 1997 06:22:52 -0700 (PDT) Received: from buffnet7.buffnet.net (shovey@buffnet7.buffnet.net [205.246.19.28]) by buffnet4.buffnet.net (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id JAA16636 for ; Sun, 10 Aug 1997 09:23:05 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sun, 10 Aug 1997 09:23:04 -0400 (EDT) From: Steve Hovey To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: fts_read question Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I get the message below from some of my machines, does any one know what it means?

No such thing like a `number of allowed logins'. :) `maxusers' is a rough estimation for certain table sizes. You're probably running out of ptys.

Ah, I didn't download the port, just the tar file from Netscape. Moving the user_pref line to the end does not help, but removing it does. The preferences.js file is mode 444 now, with the side-effect that the license agreement window comes up every time now, but at least it runs.

This was a very fresh install. About the only thing I have tried to do with this computer (and not succeeded) is to tar-copy everything over from my other computer, (running 2.2.1, having mounted this 2.2.2 / directory as an NFS drive on the 2.2.1 mountpoint /newcomputer with root-writing privileges. It is as if the NFS mounting ignored the new computer's mounting on the /usr mount point, and "under-wrote" it. I tried to untar to /usr from the 2.2.1 computer to the new 2.2.2 computer. I gave a command like (cd /; tar cf - .) | (cd /newcomputer; tar xf -) & The tar command began to fail, (I think now because it was using the wrong usr directory).

As far as I know, you need to boot from the latest FreeBSD 2.2-stable boot floppy, configure the kernel (again :-( ...) and select ``Fixit'' from the installation menu. After you find yourself in a shell you should mount your disk's root partition. For example if it's on wd0 you should enter # mount /dev/wd0a /mnt Then you copy the new sysinstall from /stand/sysinstall to /mnt/stand/sysinstall. Leave the shell (enter exit), exit the installation, reboot from your disk and you should be done. You'll find the latest boot.flp/fixit.flp on FreeBSD/2.2-970801-RELENG/floppies on any FreeBSD mirror.

At the boot manager prompt ("Default: ...") I've got the options of F1, dos, and F2, BSD. My obligatory DOS partion boots fine, yet the BSD one refuses to boot: pressing F2 just causes it to repeat the choices and "Default: F?" prompt. Now, I searched the mailing list archvies, and found many messages with a similar question, but no real answers (or, at least, no answers that apply and work in my case). So, the details: Did Novice Install from FreeBSD 2.2.2 CD-ROM onto an IDE HD IDE HD is ~540MB, set as the primary (and only) IDE HD HD cylinders: 1046, heads: 16, sectors: 63 - I've double checked this with the installation program - it appears to get it right I also have an Adaptec 2940U installed (CD drive is SCSI), but same problem when I remove it Intel Pentium Pro MB (AMI BIOS?) Boots fine from floppy using "wd(o,a)/kernel" Installation CD-ROM boots very nicely on its own (surprised me the first time) DOS partion (first 25MB of HD) boots fine I did a "fdisk /mbr" from DOS and reinstalled FreeBSD and the boot manager as suggested in the mailing list archives - hasn't helped Thanks for your help - I'm ready to get this computer going!

You'll need to provide either the source code for us to compile ourselves, or a version which runs on XTs. However, if I assume that all this program does is print a screenful of the word "FATAL", then yes, FreeBSD will let you write a program which does the same but with the word "BOO".

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. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions IV: 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 break- ing into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean that you have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. In this case, you do need to tell Majordomo the correct name, and that's when the welcome message from Majordomo comes in handy. If you have not kept it, all is not lost. Send a message to majordomo asking for the list of the members of the group. In the text of the message, write: who freebsd-questions The names returned in the list are not all individual mail IDs: you'll see a number of names like: freebsd-questions-list@datatec.com freebsd-questions-redist@news.uni-stuttgart.de incoming-freebsd-questions@cisco.com freebsd-questions@clinet.fi freebsd-questions@mcs.anl.gov If you're on one of these lists, 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 ALL ELSE FAILS ----------------- 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: 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. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. "FreeBSD problem" or "Help" aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers. 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. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: - If you get error messages, don't say "I get error messages", say (for example) "I get the error message 'No route to host'". - If your system panics, don't say "My system panicked", say (for example) "my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'". - If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. 7. 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. 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". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IV: 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 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?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and 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. 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. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)". That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. Since going to press, a number of anomalies have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996 (at the time of writing the only edition that is available). If you have this book, please check this list. I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org). --- Changes: 5 December 1996 --- Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment. Replace with: If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the following steps: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may end up with two different copies of the sources. --- Changes: 28 November 1996 --- Page 135, second paragraph: replace with In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162), or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0 through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual terminals you need: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys Alternatively, you can do this with mknod: # cd /dev # ls -l ttyv0 crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0 # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3 # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4 # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5 # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6 In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the 12, in this example; it may change from one release to another). You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about major and minor device numbers, see page 160. --- Changes: 20 November 1996 --- Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h as shown. Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still* called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through /dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-) The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on page vi. The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this book. --- Changes: 1 November 1996 --- Major changes: 1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications to the text come as a result: Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives. Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the floppy." The resultant text reads: IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives, are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5 support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as slave device. The installation may or may not work--please let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program (see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38). Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for the third box from the bottom of the page should read: If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette. Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39. If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts, page 29. Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The resultant text should read: Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the system. INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further information). 2. Changes to section on installing a second disk. Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read: When the message Three seconds until format begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that, you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk activity lamp will also not light up, and since the scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on the disk, up to 90 minutes. Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a valid partition table. For example, this happened with a disk formatted for BSD/OS: # scsiformat sd1 MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48 Mode data length: 35 Medium type: 0 Device Specific Parameter: 0 Block descriptor length: 8 Density code: 0 Number of blocks: 2051615 Reserved: 0 Block length: 512 PS: 1 Reserved: 0 Page code: 4 Page length: 22 Number of Cylinders: 1760 Number of Heads: 15 Starting Cylinder-Write Precompensation: 0 Starting Cylinder-Reduced Write Current: 0 Drive Step Rate: 0 Landing Zone Cylinder: 0 Reserved: 0 RPL: 0 Rotational Offset: 0 Reserved: 0 Medium Rotation Rate: 5400 Reserved: 0 Reserved: 0 # fdisk sd1 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 0 is: sysid 255,(BBT (Bad Blocks Table)) start 1023744, size 2108293151 (1029440 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 768/ sector 15/ head 147; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 255 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 101,(Novell Netware 3.xx) start 1646292846, size 1814062195 (885772 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 356/ sector 50/ head 0; end: cyl 256/ sector 50/ head 114 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61 beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 The data for partition 3 is: Looking at the output from dmesg, we see: (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors) sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760 cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615 sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77 = 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the disk. Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic" message to: The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table. Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't surprising. It's also completely harmless. Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* to, but not including the next occurrence of this line. Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet * The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here. Page 178, middle of page: after # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161 insert When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless chicken and egg problem. Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the first line to the example: # newfs /dev/rsd1h Further down the page, the last example should also read # newfs /dev/rsd1h 3. Other changes Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition". Add the text: It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to install from extended partitions. Page 136, bottom: Add the text If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If you're running X, open another window and use su to become root. If you're running in character mode, select another virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're sure you can still access root should you log out. Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add: Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to build the cross-references. Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should read: ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to: lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you can comment out the definitions of the printers which you don't have. Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec 274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller" Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these bugs.

I had supposed that the source code just let us know how it works rather than how it is constructed. I like unix, but I don't like its limited-scalability, I mean, unlike in DOS, we can extend the system just by hooking some INTs, even in Win 3.1/95, we can extend the system by hooking APIs.

I'm using the same version with FreeBSD 2.2-970713-RELENG #0 and have never had this problem. Initially (right after installation) I did notice that it took a while to start up, but I just waited and ignored the problem. Now, Netscape starts up fine with no delays or problems. No changes were made and I did not even use the port at FreeBSD -- just the tar ball straight from Netscape.

The machine is basically a 6x86 machine with a 'VXpro' motherboard having PCI and ISA bus connections. The IDE interface is on the motherboard. To quote the (extemely limited) documentation that comes with it: "Onboard PCI bus master IDE interface with two connectors, supports four IDE devices in 2 channels and the PCI IDE controller, supports PIO mode 0 to mode 4 at maximum transfer rate of 16.67MB/s and bus master IDE DMA mode 2". I dont know if this gives anyone any clues about the interface. The floppy disk controller is also inbuilt on the motherboard and comes up fine. I had some basic fiddling with trying to config up a system (using another machine) trying to refer to the hard disk controller as being on pci? rather than isa?. No joy to be had there by the look of things. Is there any sort of definitive guide to doing strange things with a system config? I've done plenty of hacking them around in the past for various machines that I've put FreeBSD onto. I must admit that I couldn't find much information about the finer points of the config file when I went looking. To add insult to injury, Windoze 95 has no problems with it, and OS/2 warp 3 has no problems with it. There are a few BIOS settings to play with related to the IDE interface, however I'm in the dark a bit about what they do. Simple experimentation hasn't done me any good with them. As a side point, theres an ethernet card on the PCI bus which I haven't been able to convince win95 about the existance of to date. Is there any chance that that could be messing up the bus in some way if it is misbehaving? (I intend conducting some experiments with this). Thanks for any help, Brian Scott p.s. please CC any replies to bscott@ironbark.bendigo.latrobe.edu.au - I'm suspicious about how reliable my ISP is at present.

I do use this connection with Win95, but I would like to set up FreeBSD too. So far I have not managed this problem, and I do not get support from my "provider" (my university) because "they only support the normal conncetion with Microsoft machines". The University uses what seems to be the "normal" kind of connection. At the client side you just have to choose the Microsoft TCPIP and then only choose out the host and domain by name (not by adress), and DNS activated should be set. So all adresses are "unknown" before connection. Do somebody know how to set up a connection like this with FreeBSD. I can log in on the server and get the big PPP, but nothing seems to work (though I get the adresses between me and the server) , what also seems to me as reasonable, as nameserver and gateway are unknown. Can You help me ? Please return ASAP!

Please email me or this mailing list. First, check that your Ghostscript was compiled with the driver for your printer, which is escp2. 'gs -h' will typically list the available devices in your executable. If your compiled version of ghostscript doesn't support the escp2, you will probably have to compile a new version from source and include the escp2 driver. Second, install 'apsfilter' from the ports. It will configure a print queue for you that supports postscript on your printer. It is by far the easiest way to setup printers on FreeBSD. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

If you're at all serious about your web server, you will want to look into either ISDN or fractional T1, as opposed to analog modems, to connect to your ISP.

Choose no ramdac, no clockchip, and skip the probe. Then i choose 16-bit modes 1024*768. And every thing were ok. I could not installed succesfully X on FreeBSD. At least for two reasons : The mouse device. I have a PS/2 mouse. I shoul enable the psm0 in the kernel configuration menu.

You shouldn't. Ever heard of DOS ? ;-) > Which was first, FreeBSD or Linux? Once upon a time (around the sixties), there were MIT, Bell Labs and General Electric; they dreamed of MULTICS. Then MULTICS fizzled and Bell Labs gave up the project. One day at Bell Labs Ken Thompson saw a dusty DEC PDP-7 and said: "let's write an OS in assembly". Brian Kernighan saw the dust around the room and said: "Ken, call it UNICS". UNIX was born. It was the epoch. Shortly after Dennis Ritchie joined the effort. Obviously UNIX wasn't enough for Thompson, so he invented a high-level language, B, to rewrite the OS; but B failed. So Ritchie said: "hey, Ken, try my language! I'll call it C" (Yes, then come Stroustrup and C++, but this is another tale ;-) So Thompson and Ritchie rewrote UNIX in C. After AT&T, the parent of Bell Labs, licenced the UNIX source to universities for a small fee. And now comes into play the University of California at Berkley. Partly funded by DARPA (Defence Advanced Research Project Agency), Berkley gave birth to 1BSD (First Berkley Software Distribution). Later BSD releases introduced virtual memory, paging, a new file system and networking, namely TCP/IP. Ah, yes, I forgot vi! The rest is recent history. ;-) Marco From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 11 08:58:10 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id IAA11881 for questions-outgoing; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 08:58:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mail.cre8tivegroup.com (abt6.bitwise.net [204.97.222.226]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id IAA11868 for ; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 08:58:04 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [204.255.227.83] by mail.cre8tivegroup.com (SMTPD32-3.04) id A730110C04EE; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 12:00:48 -0400 Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.0 [p0] on FreeBSD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 Resent-Date: Fri, 8 Aug 1997 15:52:27 +0100 (BST) Resent-Message-Id: Resent-From: Stephen Roome Resent-To: Patrick Gardella Date: Mon, 11 Aug 1997 11:54:04 -0400 (EDT) Organization: The Creative Group From: Patrick Gardella To: netatalk@umich.edi, netatalk-admins@umich.edu, questions@freebsd.org Subject: e: Netatalk Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Some more information on the problem I was working on from last week.

I don't know and have no information either way whatsoever I'm just asking if you know for sure before you go any further, well, I started out with an Intel Etherexpress which doesn't do multicast properly at all and that didn't help things =) Anyway, I've got netatalk working fine now under -current, (well it's smp, so I have no choice). Julian Elischer (julian@whistle.com) sent me a patch which I've included on the end of this message. I beleive this is for current only though, although it's probably worth giving it a go =) (can't be any worse than not working at all.) It works now.. although the information about how atalkd can't be restarted is incorrect. to restart atalkd if you clear out all appletalk addresses (route flush/ifconfig delete altalk etc.) it seems to restart perfectly, just takes ages. Also I delete atalkd.conf when I restart as well, takes a minute to start completely, worth the wait though. Steve. (might be worth asking about if there is a more appropriate patch.

Also, what I've tried doing as well, was to CVSup from the gateway machine, and then copy the whole /usr/src directory to the other machine. I then get an error when I try to 'make world' (can't remember the error message now, but will mail it if necessary. Although I'd prefer to CVSup from that machine instead) Thanks in advance, --brad I'm a FreeBSD user-- Fortune: An egg has the shortest sex-life of all: it gets laid once; it gets eaten once.

Try putting alias > deny_incoming no in your ppp.conf I seem to recall a problem with making world. IIRC, it had to do with the include files not being updated at the start of the make world. What I did was to nuke all of the directories that would be targets in /usr/src/include/Makefile, then cd to /usr/src/include and run 'make install'. Not sure if this will fix your problem though since you didn't tell us exactly what the problem was. -- Ian Freislich UUNET Internet Africa http://copernicus.iafrica.com/ From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 11 11:11:13 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id LAA20223 for questions-outgoing; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 11:11:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from netrail.net (netrail.net [205.215.10.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA20218 for ; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 11:11:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (jonz@localhost) by netrail.net (8.8.6/8.8.6) with SMTP id OAA17896 for ; Mon, 11 Aug 1997 14:10:07 GMT Date: Mon, 11 Aug 1997 14:10:07 +0000 (GMT) From: "Jonathan A.

Date: Thu, 7 Aug 97 15:01:05 EDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, [ I'm reposting this, because I didn't see it come back, and can't find it in the archives. -cmcurtin] I've got a bit of a problem getting FreeBSD on a new machine here. We've got a system with two ultrawide SCSI-3 drives hung off of an Adaptec 7880. I see that there's a driver available for the board, but it's not on the 2.2.1-R boot disk. We can actually newfs the filesystems and get some data copied to the target disk during the install, but by about 20% or so into the installation of /bin, the system hangs. Even doing a minimal install, with the intention of getting it far enough along to build and install the right driver, then installing the rest of the system doesn't work. Is there a way that we can get FreeBSD installed on the system in a relatively straightforward manner? I'm trying to avoid having to spend the time to figure out how to build a boot/install disk for 2.2.1 with the right driver in place. I do have another 2.2.1 machine on the network, if that would make a solution any easier. Any help I can get would obviously be greatly appreciated. -- Matt Curtin Chief Scientist Megasoft Online cmcurtin@research.megasoft.com http://www.research.megasoft.com/people/cmcurtin/ I speak only for myself Pull AGIS.NET's Plug!

I have a script that works just fine for this task, however on those occasions that the process is not running and it needs to start it, I get some unusual leftovers from cron that I would like to eliminate, or at least verify to be non-harmful. In the following script, adjkerntz is the guinea pig process (since I don't want to kill the one I'm actually testing for :), however the behaviour is the same. System is 2.2.1-Release. Here is the script: #!/bin/sh /bin/ps -ax | /usr/bin/grep [a]djkerntz if [ $? != 0 ]; then /sbin/adjkerntz -i fi exit Here is the cron job: */2 * * * * root /bin/sh /home/root/test.sh And here is the result from ps when it has to start the process: 6591 ?? I 0:00.01 CRON (cron) 6592 ?? Z 0:00.00 (sh) 6598 ?? Is 0:00.01 /sbin/adjkerntz -i A kill for 6591 in this example also eliminates the zombie (sh) process, and the ghost CRON thinger doesn't seem to have any adverse affect on the system, however I don't want to take chances since the whole point of this is to have it run safely unattended. I've tried the script with and without using an & to bg the process (although it shouldn't be needed with a daemon like adjkerntz), and with and without the exit statement. I've also tried it on several other FreeBSD systems and with different processes to start, and the result is always the same. Also, the CRON (cron) process takes up some small amount of memory (about 500 bytes). I haven't had a chance to test long term if the amount of memory used increases, since I don't have any systems that I can take chances with right now. I am not doing a send-pr yet since I'm still not sure this isn't an error on my part, however I've researched everything I can find on this, and haven't found any mention of the problem I'm describing here. If it would be better to send this to -bugs or do a send-pr, just let me know.

After getting frustrated with user ppp I decided to configure pppd per the handbook. I went very nicely until I started getting the old ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR): Address already exists rtinit: wrong ifa (0xf0656580) was (0xf066cb80) that plagued me with user ppp now and again. Netstat led me to the conclusion that the routing tables were not getting cleared. My first thought was to try routed, which gave a less ominous routed[596]: ppp0 is duplicated by ppp0 at 136.16.210.150 Everyone on the archives suggested that routed should not be run. Suggestions were: 1. ip-down script 2. IPFilter My questions: Anybody have a surefire or "best" solution? What would go in an ip-down script to solve this, 'route flush'? Is gated an option? Thoughts on the subject will be greatly appreciated.

Don't think if the 2.2.1 boot disk lacked a driver for the 7880 that you'd be able to do anything with disks attached to it. The Adaptec 2940 family is probably the best supported SCSI card under FreeBSD. I've been using my 7870's a very long time. I see two possibilities as to the cause of your problem. In the early days of the 2.2 branch there were some big changes to the ahc code that introduced problems. Another would be your cabling, or the drives themselves. For now, suggest you download a 2.2.2 boot disk. Install from your CDROM (or are you installing from an ftp'ed image? If so, why 2.2.1?) using the 2.2.2 boot disk. All you have to do is go into the options menu (item 4) and change the release name. Once you have a running system it wouldn't be a bad idea to cvsup (or ftp the CTM's) an up to date 2.2-stable. "make world" is a pretty good way to validate your hardware is working right. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Ah, I didn't download the port, just the tar file from Netscape. Moving the user_pref line to the end does not help, but removing it does. The preferences.js file is mode 444 now, with the side-effect that the license agreement window comes up every time now, but at least it runs.

That's still in their area if it hangs that early. Btw., i've found BIOS rev 1.23 to be the last stable revision regarding El Torito (even though a number of El Torito features are missing that have supposed to be fixed in 1.25 or higher). So it wouldn't surprise me to see that they've broken more than the extended BIOS int 0x13 support. El Torito is already a large pile of sh*t, but the BIOS vendor imple- mentations of it seem to be even crappier. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) -- |Fidonet: J Wunsch 2:234/49.99 |Internet: J.Wunsch@234-49-99.swimsuit.roskildebc.dk | Standard disclaimer: The views of this user are strictly his own.

Any idea(s) as to when this driver will make it into the CD & how it will possibly be identifiable? Q2 & 3. How can I install FreeBSD (current?) onto a machine with a DPT HBA?

Please say yes. Thanks! Not in the base distribution, but a PnP driver is available from Sujal Patel. I don't have the address, but if you ask multimedia@freebsd.org they can probably help you.

Please email me or this mailing list. Have you tried using the 'stcolor' device? See /usr/local/share/ghostscript/5.*/doc/devices.txt and search for 'Stylus' for usage instructions. I would think the 500 would be backwards compatible to the Stylus COLOR, which I know works with this driver. I'm looking at gs 4.02 though, the driver may have been updated.

Is such an > arrangment possible without a great deal of teeth-gnashing? I've got 2 IDE and 2 SCSI drives. What you can do depends a lot on your bios, both on your motherboard and on your host adapter... In my case, the motherboard bios will always boot from the master IDE drive, although the boot manager installed by FreeBSD allows booting from the slave. The bios has an option to support SCSI, but I've never even tried it. If I disable the master IDE drive (mark it as ``not installed'') then when the motherboard bios passes control to the BusLogic host adapter bios, *that* bios comes back to the motherboard with the boot drive -- I'm not real clear on exactly how this is done, in practice it means that if I disable the master IDE disk, the system will attempt to boot off the SCSI drive (probably SCSI ID 0) -- it becomes ``C:'' to dos. I suspect that if you tell the bios that the IDE drive is ``not installed'', then FreeBSD will still be able to access it. You need to experiment with your bios settings and see what happens. Can't hurt anything as long as you remember what settings you originally had so you can put everything back as it was. In the worst case, just create a small BSD partition on the IDE drive -- you only need perhaps 15-20M for your root slice. Create the other file systems -- /usr, /var, /tmp, /home, etc. -- on your SCSI drive(s).

Eventually I figured out that these were the files I had in the archive directory, only now many were about 25% or so smaller in size. Under DOS, pkunzip is unable to extract these files saying they're corrupted. Is there any hope of repairing these files? Also, I'm curious how this lost+found directory works and what condition(s) might have caused (just) these files to be placed there. Thanks for your help!

I am bring out a development box that I loaded the FreeBsd 2.2.2.I have two Digiboard cards that have a combined total of 8 ports. My problem is as the following 1) Logging user access since pppd does not have a umtp. How would I go about getting user login usage logs made. 2) Some of my friends are loging in on two ports using the same ID and password. How would I go about limiting using a single port for a single user ID and deny access if another port is trying to get in with the same user ID. I have been through the mailing posting and I am aware that at least 2 other people share my concern from what I had read. I am a slow C programmer willing to learn and rewrite the ppp if necessary. I have also looked at some of the LINUX usergroups to see if they have something like what I would like to implement but came up with a zip. 3)Implement a radius authentication server and my 8port dialup FreeBSD server act like a terminal server connecting to a radius server for authentication only for PPP. I have downloaded the DANNY's setting up your FREEBSD machine as a terminal dialup server package and I am in the process of trying it.

It is a simple way to interface with running processes on your system. The proc filesystem creates psuedo-files that allow the process owner to read and write the process memory map, the registers for that process context, and various bits of information about the process. The advantage is that it makes writing programs like ps(1) and debuggers much more straightforward. If you want to debug process 43, you open /proc/43/ctl to control the process and /proc/43/mem to read its memory map. /proc/43/regs and /proc/43/fpregs allow you to read and modify the registers and floating-point registers, etc. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

I suspect both Perl and Tcl/Tk are more portable than shell scripts; My Tcl/Tk book I bought a little while ago came with a CD-ROM with Tcl and Tk for Windoze and Macintrash. I, of course, choose to use Tcl on the platform it was intended for -- FreeBSD. My adventure into Tcl programming was simple -- I needed to write a manufacturing acceptance test for my new baby, the Dayna Internet Station dial-up router. The MAT had to be able to do the following: o Connect to the built-in command shell and issue several commands to format the embedded flash disk, clear the NVRAM, and set the clock, then reboot the system. o FTP the initial system and configuration database to the system and reboot to get the full-featured FTP server up. o FTP the full system, which is a single TAR ball containing the entire filesystem, and reboot. o Connect to the configuration database and probe the three attached modems to make sure the serial port and PCCard controller are working. o Ascertain the ethernet hardware address contains the proper vendor and product address ranges. I did this in less than 5 hours, writing a Tcl script and a quick and simple command-line driven ftp 'put' program using libftpio. It is a complete success. It takes us about two and a half minutes to load the code and test each iStation, plus I got to learn a new language. The manfucturing manager wants me to wrap it in a window, so in the next month or so I'll get to learn Tk as well. ;^) > Finally, for general purposes, what is the "best" shell available, > and why?

I've been using bash for over 5 years now. It's big, but we have modern, efficient virtual memory systems, so who cares? RAM is cheap. Re-typing commands is stupid. Plus, I've been hooked on interactive recall since the first time I used it. I even have bash for NT. ;^0 -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

I want to install a Seagate ST32171N UltraSCSI 2.16 Gbyte disk. This disk will be the forth one on a FreeBSD machine. Already we have 2 X 2Gbyte and one 1Gbyte installed previously. This disk will be used purely for mirroring. I would want to use the whole 2Gbyte for mirroring the ATMForum site. What is the mounting procedure please? As I can understand thus far one has to attach parameters to a "disktab" file in the /etc directory. I do not have a clue as to what these values might be nor do I know what variables are to be used. Next one has to make use of the "disklabel" command which then makes use of the values specified in "/etc/disktab". What are the switches to be used if sd0 to sd2 are already used? I presume that I will use rsd3. Next one issues the command "newfs". How is it used please? And finally mounting the device. One has to create a directory from root "mkdir atmforum" and then mount the device to the atmforum directory. Please correct me if I am wrong. Hope to hear from you soon.

I know this would be a lot easier with a router, but with ISDN rates changing, putting that 200-hour cap on, any way can't have full time connection right now. Anyway I am somewhat of a newbie to FreeBSD. I will try to explain as best as I can what I have done so far. ISDN dial up with dedicated IP (205.139.43.211 netmask 255.255.255.255) connected to NT 4.0. NT 4.0 network card is set to 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0. The NT machine will not let me set the network card to 205.139.43.211 netmask 255.255.255.255. Says netmask invalid. NT 4.0 machine network card connected to HUB. FreeBSD (Ver. 2.2.2) machine with 2 network cards. One card set to 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 and the other card set to 205.139.43.211 netmask 255.255.255.255. Both cards are connected to HUB. Also have Network Address Translation Daemon installed, but do not know if it is working correctly. The other 4 machines are Win95 with one network card each. Using 192.168.0.4/7 netmask 255.255.255.0. The FreeBSD box is setup to be my second domain. My first domain my provider is hosting. I am trying to make it use the NT 4.0 as its route out to the Internet, only to be accessed when the NT 4.0 machine is connected. I have been told that the FreeBSD box will spool its mail until connected? When I telnet to the FreeBSD box, I can only get to it on 192.168.0.1. I maybe am going about this in the totally wrong direction. Please send any suggestions that you might have.

If you are assigned a dynamic ip address by your provider I think you just leave it blank. Also your host name is the name you will be using for your computer, not your provider.

Also have Network Address Translation Daemon installed, but do not know if it is working correctly. You are going about this the wrong way. Is it possible for you to put the ISDN onto FreeBSD? Is it a modem-like TA? If you can do this, then do so (read the docs on ppp, see /etc/ppp/*) Then you can put NAT onto FreeBSD. You can't run NAT on FreeBSD if your legal IP address is on the NT box. You can't use the same IP address on both the NT and FreeBSD boxes.

I'm running ppp -auto to handle my networking (works fine) on by 2.2 box, and I'd like to check my mail with poplicent (no probs there) and send it with sendmail (ugh). During startup, sendmail (called from rc.local with -bd flag only) sends a packet to the network, causing ppp to dial. I find this strange as there is no q flag. I've disabled sendmail because of this - is this an appropriate approach for achieving my aim or is there some other way of preventing it from sending a packet (ie. should I have sendmail running as a daemon for outgoing mail delivery to work properly)? I would have thought that I don't need the sendmail daemon, but I have had slight problems... A possibly related problem is that when I try and send mail to a local user (ie. mail dmg or mail dmg@localhost), it brings up the ppp link and sends it to the internet (sendmail is currently configured not to queue mail, I'm going to get round to that Real Soon Now). Before I set up ppp -auto (and disabled the sendmail daemon), there was no problem with this (or is this a red herring?). I suspect that what is happening is that the mail is being interpreted as being sent to dmg@dmg.cc.ic.ac.uk (ie. me at full name of my host as defnined in sysconfig) which is then being sent over PPP (because I have no sendmail daemon listening on my box?), munged by Imperial's mail system to dmg@ic.ac.uk and delivered to my POP mailbox. If I need to go RTFM a bit more, point me in the right direction please :-) Thanks for any help you can give, Dave p.s. I'm not on the questions list so please cc me in any replies.

Can you tell me how to do this as currently it won't let me and gives a 'Login Incorrect' error message although the user name (root) and password I specify are correct? I can login as any other user apart from root via telnet without a problem. Please let me know.

[snip] This is *REALLY* not advisable. I suggest you install ssh on the BSD box and use ssh/scp from your client side to have encrypted comms to your ssh host.

This sounds very familiar to the problem I was having with the 9332BDT. So here is what I did to get FreeBSD 2.2.2 running using that card. For references purposes, here is what the boot sequence reports about my card. Jul 25 16:40:52 tofino /kernel: de0: enabling 10baseT port Jul 29 08:26:05 tofino /kernel: de0 rev 34 int a irq 11 on pci0:10 Jul 29 08:26:05 tofino /kernel: de0: SMC 9332BDT 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.2 Jul 29 08:26:05 tofino /kernel: de0: address 00:e0:29:06:3c:d2 Jul 29 08:26:05 tofino /kernel: de0: media: 1="10baseT" 2="Full Duplex 10baseT" 3="100baseTX" 4="Full Duplex 100baseTX" I was having the following sorts of problems: - Card would always come up in 100baseT mode even though on a 10base-T network - On occassion could do a sequence of ifconfigs to get it into 10base-T mode but transfer rate was poor and driver would often report a failure and not come back to life - This was all under 2.2.2-Release with the generic kernel I went to 3am Software's home page http://www.3am-software.com/ and checked out the tips there. I also got the new de drivers from that page and installed them. (These drivers are newer than the ones in 2.2.2-release, but you should verify that is the case with the version of FreeBSD you are using.) The final step to really get things going was to recompile the kernel with NMBCLUSTERS set to 4096 with the following line in my kernel configuration file. options NMBCLUSTERS=4096 With the above changes I was able to get files transfer rates on 200MB files in excess of 900Kbytes/second. We did, however, discover one problem card that wouldn't work even after all the changes were made, although that card seems to work fine under Windows NT 4.0. Most of these tips came from Matt Thomas at 3am Software. Hope this helps and I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

Well, I downloaded the boot image, and successfully booted from a floppy. I then went through the installation menu, and I thought I installed correctly from CD-ROM. (NOTE: The FreeBSD CD I have is not from Walnut Creek CD, but from another distributer: Trans-Ameritech.) Now, when I boot without the floppy, the boot manager kicks in and lets me select my Win95 or BSD. I select BSD. Then the boot screen comes up (the one where it waits 5 seconds and has the Boot prompt) and I let it wait 5 seconds. Then it comes back saying "Cannot find /kernel". I know that BSD can't find the kernel in the /kernel directory, but I don't know why? Did I do something wrong? Please get back to me soon, as I am eager to get started. Thanks. -Eli From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 12 09:34:31 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id JAA02529 for questions-outgoing; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 09:34:31 -0700 (PDT) Received: from netrail.net (netrail.net [205.215.10.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id JAA02518 for ; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 09:34:25 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (jonz@localhost) by netrail.net (8.8.6/8.8.6) with SMTP id MAA15164; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 12:32:20 GMT Date: Tue, 12 Aug 1997 12:32:20 +0000 (GMT) From: "Jonathan A.

So I deleted my bash history file and logged off. When I logged back on the history 'reappears' in all its glory. So what I'm wondering...is where else is it "stored" so I can look there for command like rsh and such that a "hacker" might try to use. I need to have a better understanding of all this stuff so when I call the isp of the guy that was banging on every door i have trying to see if any of the locks where non-functional, I can ask them the right things.

What you are seeing is exactly what I see when I dial into my isp. Do you have domain service setup? If you haven't (or don't know what I am talking about), get the addresses, in 'dot' format, of you isp's domain server(s). In the file, /etc/resolv.conf, put three lines. domain foo.net # the domain of your ISP nameserver 100.100.100.10 # you use the number you got from your ISP nameserver 100.100.100.11 # the second number provided by your isp Your IP may only give you one nameserver address so only use what is provided. Giving that you have domaine name service, you should be able to ping your ISP or any wonderful things.

In my opinion, a good unix admin should not become dependent on tools which vary from system to system. I believe the disktab method would work in any unix while the sysintall method would work only in FreeBSD.

My system was installed from the 2.2.2-RELEASE CD-ROM. When I install packages from the CD-ROM, it will complain the CD-ROM is of a different version, which is easily fixed by going to the install options and change the source to 2.2.2-RELEASE. When I tried to install the XFree86 distribution and nothing happened. Then I realized sysinstall was expecting XFree86 3.3 whereas the CD-ROM contained XFree86 3.2. How could I go about installing the XFree86 distribution from the CD-ROM. I also tried CTM to bring my system up-to-date (hoping it could fix the above problem). I ftp'd src-2.2.2-0300xEmpty.gz and all later deltas. When I applied the base delta, it ended with an Exit(80) error. I am not getting anyway either way. BTW, is the CTM a lot more efficient comparing to the CVSup. I have a ~40K (USR x2 56K) modem connection, which one should I use? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Elton ################################################################# UNIX works!

You can do this from the console, by pressing control-alt-delete. Wait for the OS to shutdown, then as it's rebooting enter "-s" as an argument at the boot prompt.

The strange thing is one of our machines at work has this problem and the another doesn't. I am wondering if the problem has something to do with the version of the operating system or X. In my case the machine with the problem is is a Pentium running FreeBSD 2.2.1 and a version of XFree86 that is on the 2.2.1 CD. (Off the top of my head I think it is 3.2). The machine that is working fine is a Pentium II runing FreeBSD 2.2.2 and XFree86 3.3.

Occasionally it does it when starting. I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE on a machine with 16Mb of memory, and I'm here to tell you that this puppy page-thrashes, especially when you try using the newsreader section. The solution to that is, "Buy more memory," or, alternatively, "Run a Web browser that's not such a pig." However, this looping behavior is worrisome because it doesn't happen every time, just 2/3 of the time. This Is Not Good.

There are no current plans to change the licensing terms of the I2O Specification. While I have not read the terms and conditions of FreeBSD software distribution and can not specifically comment relative to the OS, I can confirm that only those vendors with a license to develop to the I2O specification are in a position to support I2O functionality.

Unfortunately the bad blocks are going to show, so you're over your buffer. bad144 will block them out, but more will probably pop up. A new disk is in order, although a few passes with bad144 will lock out anything it finds.

Thanks in advance You can change the group of /usr/bin/write to what you like. Here are my perms for reference: -r-xr-sr-x 1 bin tty 12288 Feb 6 1997 /usr/bin/write* It's setgid tty, so I don't understand why yours doen't work. Perhaps the group got changed or the gid bit lost. It needs to be group tty to write the terminals since they are owned by :tty.

Note that FreeBSD probably isn't binary-compatible back to BSDi, ELF or a.out or whatever magical binary format you can find. I don't use BSD/OS so I don't know how close it and FreeBSD are in terms of binaries, The reverse, however, is usually true.

This Is Not Good. Ive been running it for the last few days and have had zero problems. It hasnt crashed once, and everything appears to work, include Java. I was never able to get any of the BSDI version to work with Java, but the one for FreeBSD worked out of the box using the Netscape installer. This version of Netscape seems a LOT faster than any other version of Netscape I have used in FreeBSD.

This Is Not Good. Yes, I've had the same experience. Somebody posted a message suggesting that you should modify .netscape/preferences.js and move the line user_pref("browser.startup.license_accepted", "1004 4.02b7"); to the bottom or remove it. I tried that, and it started fine, but it replaced the line towards the top on shutdown, and looped the next time. I've reported the bug to Netscape (so should everybody else who gets it), but I haven't heard from them. >From my point of view, Netscape 4 isn't that big a deal that I can't do without it, so I'm waiting for a fix before I try it again.

Suppose a client on the private net opens an ftp connection to an ftp server on the Internet. Thanks to natd, is it not true that the ftp server will be 100% convinced that the ftp client is the firewall _itself_? And, that, if proper forward and reverse DNS records exist for the firewall, if the server insists on doing double reverse DNS lookups it will be satisfied? This makes pretty clear sense to me... am I missing something? If so, what is the optimum way to satisfy these reverse lookups in the NAT situation I describe? I thought that I had this all sorted out, but in my testing I've run across some ftp sites (ftp.tis.com, for example) for which connections from my NAT'd clients fail, with the server claiming that reverse lookups failed.

Take a look at Nemeth et al for the gory details: just about every vendor does his own things nowadays. And it's really painful on FreeBSD due to the differing opinions about geometry that each tool supplies--something that could be improved. I make no bones about it: give me a properly functioning sysinstall approach, and I'll take it every time. And I work on lots of different systems.

Even better would be some good FAQ's and such available on the > net since "free" is much more in my price range nowadays. :) Best advice is to read existing shell scripts. I believe that GNU autoconf (ftp at prep.ai.mit.edu) comes with several working (ie, real-use) examples. O'Reilly and Associates probably has a good sh programming book. But really, the manual is typically enough... start small (command-command-command, no structure), and build. > Alternatively, is sh "dead" in the modern Unix world?

Shell scripts become hairy quickly. But for across-the-board Unix compatibility, nothing beats sh (aka the Bourne shell). Every still-used Unix system will probably have ksh, and most likely csh (the latter being less likely), but you can never be quite sure. Bottom line: if you're distributing it cross-platform, use the Bourne shell. If you're using it on your own company's computers only, or for personal use, use your favourite shell. > Finally, for general purposes, what is the "best" shell available, > and why?

Missing significant shells or incorrect *facts* may be corrected. > Personally I'm happy with Bash for my everyday stuff, although from what > I've heard it's looked down on by the purists. Not purists. Traditionalists. Traditional BSD hackers prefer csh. It's (marginally) cleaner, and it's been around longer. Most Linux hackers prefer bash. Almost nobody (who is serious about Unix) uses the Bourne shell as their login shell, but every Unix hacker can program in it. SysV [hiss] traditionalists tend to use ksh (which is a Bourne shell superset). In the beginning was sh, and it was without structure, and void. And came forth from the labs hackers, bearing each idiosyncrasies in their own fashion. Then Berkeley said, "Let there be job control!" And there was job control. And Berkeley said, "Let there be a shell, being of Bourne, which shall wield job control!" And thus was created jsh, but it slipped into the mists of time. Then AT&T said, "Let there be a shell of Bourne, that hath security!" And there was security, not so that of a prison of bars, but of a padded cell with an open window. And thus was created rsh, but it too slipped into the mists of time. (A utility came forth from BSD also known rsh, but that shared only name.) So stepped forth Allman, saying, "This sh(1) is of filth; it is ambiguous and hath many kluges. Let there be a different shell, of programmability and versatility." Thus was created the csh, and was structured in the fashion of C, and BSD looked, and saw it was good. So stepped forth Korn, saying, "This Bourne shell is impotent; it lacks the versaitility which are brought about by functions. Let there be a similar shell, of programmability and versatility." Thus was created the ksh, and though it was of sh(1), it was structured, and USG looked, and saw it was good. So stepped forth Gates, saying, "Let there be a shell for my OS!" And thus was created command.com, and in its hilarity much amusement was to be had by all, save those who were to use it. Then went forth Allman to create other things, and the csh was still, while Korn continued to cause the ksh to grow, and become fruitful. So came hackers from across the lands, from beyond the seas, and created shells of csh, each in their own fashion. So were created tcsh, and zsh, and others. And the hackers came forth, and each took as was in their own form, and were happy. So stepped forth Stallman, saying, "This wealth of shells across the land, and yet the only common shell is the Bourne shell. For GNU, we shall have the Bourne shell, but it shall not be the Bourne shell, lest the Demons of Copyrights destroy us forever. Let the shell be Bourne again!" And thus was created bash, in the form of the Bourne shell, and yet taking from it the lessons learned by the making of csh and ksh and others, and GNU looked, and it was good. So stepped again forth Gates, saying, "Let there be another shell!" And thus was created cmd.exe, and again amusement was had by all. Thus were created the shells and counted thus: sh, jsh, rsh, ksh, csh, tcsh, zsh, and bash, and from these their offspring, too numerous to count. And thus was never created a judge of shells, and the hackers shall choose as they see fit. -- Second law of programming: Anything that can go wrong wi sendmail: segmentation violation -- core dumped From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 12 22:16:05 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id WAA22226 for questions-outgoing; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 22:16:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from milehigh.denver.net (milehigh.denver.net [204.144.180.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id WAA22216 for ; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 22:16:02 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from jdc@localhost) by milehigh.denver.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) id XAA09055; Tue, 12 Aug 1997 23:27:09 -0600 (MDT) Message-ID: <19970812232708.44622@denver.net> Date: Tue, 12 Aug 1997 23:27:08 -0600 From: John-David Childs To: Julian Elischer Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Please explain why this is a security hole in /etc/daily References: <199708112038.WAA19822@curry.mchp.siemens.de> <19970812211715.37172@denver.net> <33F12CB1.446B9B3D@whistle.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.79 In-Reply-To: <33F12CB1.446B9B3D@whistle.com>; from Julian Elischer on Tue, Aug 12, 1997 at 08:40:33PM -0700 Organization: Enterprise Internet Solutions Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Tuesday August 1997, Julian Elischer had this to say about "Re: Please explain why this is a security hole in /etc/daily": > John-David Childs wrote: > > > > happens next if the "action" is "rm -f {} \;" :=) > > the symlink gets deleted?

No, the history is only stored in .bash_history (obviously, if the shell is bash; other shells have different names for the history file). The fact that the history "reappears" depends on some shell variables that you can easily understand if you RTFM bash(1). Marco Molteni Computer Science student at the Universita' di Milano, Italy.

It depends on what you want to change. Some system configuration items can be changed while the system is still running. These generally fall into one of two categories: - System variables, such as whether or not IP packets will be gatewayed between two interfaces. These are adjusted using sysctl(8). - Filesystems and compatability modules (I'm slightly generalizing) which can be demand loaded. The modules are (typically) stored in /lkm, and are loaded when necessary. For example, my machine uses the CD drive infrequently. Rather than compile the CD9660 filesystem into the kernel, I rely on the module to be loaded when I mount a CD filesystem, and unloaded when I unmount it. > I had to add another network interface to my system, and didn't find > other way to do it. Unfortunately, this falls into neither of the above catgeories, and will need a kernel recompile to do it.

As a (perhaps) useful datapoint, I haven't had *any* problems with 4.02b7. I run stock 2.2.2, and it just works. I haven't needed to change anything in the preferences file to do this. My bookmarks file is > 90K, and it's run under XFree86 and Accelerated X servers. This was the first version of Netscape installed on this machine. I've run other versions on other machines, and they all proved to be slightly flaky. This is the first one I've used that hasn't dropped core on me so far.

Mainly, 2.2.x has a new VM subsystem, which is supposed to greatly improve performance, it has support for ELF Linux binaries, some more devices, a new configuration file structure in /etc and countless other changes that I don't recall off-hand. 2.1.7.1 is supposed to be more time-tested. 2.2.2 has some quirks and for a production server you may want to try a more recent 2.2-RELENG snapshot.

The 9600 bps that stty shows is bogus and has nothing to do with the actual speed of the pseudo terminal used by telnet, so there's absolutly no use in trying to change it. Your connection may be slow due to network problems, but stty has nothing to do with it.

Specificaly, it would be helpful to know what disks you have and on which you installed FreeBSD. If you installed it on a second IDE disk (master on secondary channel), try giving 1:wd(2,a)/kernel at the Boot: prompt. If you installed it on a SCSI disk, and also have an IDE disk, give 1:sd(0,a)/kernel at the Boot: prompt. If none of this apply, please elaborate on your configuration so people can better help you.

This Is Not Good. This happens on my workstation too (I'm running 2.2.2, 40MB) when Netscape exits (never when it opens). It only happens when Java was loaded onto the browser to view pages with applets. All the windows close, yet the process remains and absorbs all the cpu in an infinite RUN state. The only way to kill it is with a kill -9. It sucks. I'm going to try a ktrace the next time it happens to see whats going on.

My system configuration is as follows: CPU: Cyrix 166+ Disks: scsi controller = adaptec 2940 wd0 = 2GB EIDE wd1 = 3 GB EIDE sd0 = zip sd1 = jazz sd2 = 2 GB scsi I have successfully installed FreeBSD and everything including XWindows seems to work fine. I was unable to install from the latest Walnut Creek CD since my CD reader is an unsupported IDE model. So I just copied the entire CD to wd1s1 (a 2GB dos partition) to a directory named freebsd, then installed using boot floppy and the dos partition. Everything went fine during the install. I have a /usr/ports directory with a Makefile. However, I have no executables for any of the ports collection programs and no man pages for them. I am especially in need of the g77 fortran compiler. I have tried to build several of the ports collection programs but I get some message about being unable to fetch a needed file. When I try to install anything more from the dos partition using /stand/sysinstall I get the message that some index could not be found. I have looked on other FreeBSD systems and noticed that they have a /usr/local/bin directory loaded with the programs that I need. The CD cover says that all the executables and source for the ports collection are included but I can't find any souce. I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to get these programs into my FreeBSD system from the CD that I purchased.

No :-) Better, I think, to connect the printer to the uSoft box, share it, and use smbclient from lpd to print. That way you get all of the niceties that HP has included in the printer driver for uSoft (like using the sound card to emote "You're out of paper." uSoft Win95 boxes make wonderful little print servers :-) > > >If > > its possible and anyone has > > a printcap for this printer that works id appreciate it if you could > > pass it along. # printcap for HP-laserjet on Win95 and an Epson Stylus Color 500 on # HP LaserJet 4L on Win95 lp|samba line printer HP-Laserjet:\ :lp=/dev/null:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:mx#0:\ :if=/usr/local/samba/bin/smbprint:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct # Epson Stylus Color 500 on Win95 ep|samba line printer Epson:\ :lp=/dev/null:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:mx#0:\ :if=/usr/local/samba/bin/smbprint:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ep:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/ep/acct I like this smbprint a little better than that which came out of the box with Samba: ---------8<--------- #!/bin/sh -x PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/samba/bin:/bin:/usr/bin export PATH # This script is an input filter for printcap printing on a unix machine.

All the HW is ok (it runs fine under Win95 with Bay's driver). FreeBSD recognizes it as a Digital chipset (using the PCI de driver). However it no worky. It seems that the driver doesn't recognize this flavor of the chipset/adapter. It configures it as a 100Mb port, although the 310tx auto senses the network for either 10 or 100 (in my case, it's hooked up to a 10Mb hub). Trying to ping causes collision lights on the hub. Sniffing around the code/docs, I tried ifconfig de0 -link2 to force it into 10Mb mode. When I do this I get "transmit timeout" errors from the kernel. So, any support for this adapter post-2.2.1?

AFAIK the NetFlex board is not currently supported. Good replacements are the Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B or any of the DEC 21x4x-based boards, which are the non-NE2000 compatible PCI ethernet boards you'll find. I know that Accton, Dayna, and Kingston make boards with these chips.

In this case, you just need to replace the libraries and you should be set to go. The DES libs understand MD5 so you shouldn't get stuck having to reset all the passwords.

FreeBSD doesn't have explicit support for PCI IDE controllers, but IDE controllers are supported through the wdc device. I have a couple of messages about a beta version of a driver that can run these controllers in PIO modes. If you're interested in testing it and have a way of making backups (The messages warn that the driver can cause hidden data corruption) I can forward these to you. > p.s. please CC any replies to bscott@ironbark.bendigo.latrobe.edu.au - I'm > suspicious about how reliable my ISP is at present.

Either something went wrong with your installation, or you have a unusual disk setup. You'll need to give the disk explicitly. Try doing something like wd(0,a)/kernel where 0 is the disk number (0 & 1 on the first controller, 2 & 3 on the second controller). If this is a scsi device then write 'sd' instead of 'wd'. You didn't tell me your disk setup so this is all I can do for now.

The machine must have crashed or some sort of disk error occured, you rebooted and fsck found them and placed them in lost+found. fsck saves by inode (1k chunks or so) so you'll have to paste the files together. If they were .ZIPs you're probably out of luck.

He suggested I send it your way. The problem I am having is no setting changes are taking effect. They are not being written to /etc/rc.conf. Originally I was under the impression that I was missing the file /etc/sysconfig. Murray Stokely, Technical Support, Walnut Creek CDROM told me that the file has been replaced by /etc/rc.conf. I can make changes using /stand/sysinstall -- configure network interfaces, but the changes do not appear in any of the /etc files. The domain name I use midnight.org. is very persistent. That seems to not want to go away at all. this is my original message: > Any change in to the network interfaces is ignored as is the HOSTNAME > variable.

I do not think that the Cyrix processor is compatitable with it. Here's the problem. I put in the boot disk with the boot.flp file on it. I boot up my computer. It goes though it's auto install, starts decompressing the kernel and then reboots. It does this everytime. I know the disk is not bad because I tried it on my friends AMD 486/133. It booted fine. I know it is not a device conflict because I unplugged everything in the computer except the video card. Yet, the computer rebooted everytime. I even did a complete and total format of my hard drive. I tried again. Still it rebooted. I know that my memory is good so there's no problem there. Everything in my computer is good. I thought Cyrix processors were supposed to be compatitable with everything current. This version of FreeBSD is 2.2.2, the latest version. I went to their web site, they claim that it is compatitable with Cyrix. The only people i've found with a UNIX type system, running a Cyrix processor is when previously they had installed it when they had an Intel processor. But I can not find anyone tyring to do a fresh install from a Cyrix. This is getting very annoying. I cannot install Lynux. Redhat or slackware editions either. The computer reads from the floppy and then just stops. I have to manually reset it every time too. I know those disks aren't bad because i tried them on my friends 486/133 AMD and it booted fine. All I want is a UNIX OS. I cannot type any command line peramaters in the Lynux installation process because no prompt come up. My computer just hangs. So I belive that the problem is the Cyrix processor. I would like to know what your answer is, or if you could please e-mail me a special boot image so i can boot up to any UNIX type OS. Or if you could give me the address for a special kernel I would appericate that too. I also know that the problem doesn't not lie in the motherboard because it also claims compatitablity with the UNIX type OS. So...please tell me what to do..I am looking forward to the 5 day download =) Thank you.

I currently have Win95 rev B using the 32 bit FAT on wd0. I have tried stripping my system to the basics and still have not gotten anywhere. I have removed wd0 and sd0 from the system and tried to install with no luck. I bott from the floppy and begin a novice installation from the CD-Rom. Everything seems to go just fine. I install some ports, configure X windows, and everything seems peachy. I reboot and the system tells me that no operating system is installed. What am I doing wrong? During install setup when I set the partitions, I select the basic choices. (/, swap, /var, /usr). I hope this is enough information for someone to help me. I pray that someone will help me. 8^/ Much thanks, Vincent Rodriguez -- It is not whether or not you die, we all die eventually. It is, in fact, how you have lived, that will make the difference.

The first 4 (s1-s4) are the primary partitions (FreeBSD calls them slices) that are stored in the disk MBR. An extended partition picks up at s5. If D: is a DOS primary partition, use wd#s1-4 (do a fdisk wd# in FreeBSD to see what slot its in -- probably the first -- s1). If its a DOS extended partition (DOS fdisk will tell you this), use wd#s5. If the latter, don't forget to "cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV wd#s5". And as I mentioned in my other reply, wd2 is your third disk, not your second. If you meant your second, use wd1s# for the slice name instead.

It accepts my login, gives me my IP address and says I'm connected; but from that point onward, every time I attempt to contact the server, there is a three-minute delay between initiating contact and receiving a reply. For example, in Netscape I'll type 205.207.183.35 (The IP address I negotiated). The status bar immediately says "Host Contacted, Waiting for reply", and then the three minute lag kicks in. After three minutes, index.html quickly loads, and then the lag kicks in again as Netscape requests each .gif image from my server. For Telnet and FTP it's the same deal, although the lag only occurs once when initial contact is made; from then on in I can transfer as much data as I want without any delay whatsoever. Whenever FreeBSD has dial-in PPP running, the same thing occurs locally. If I attempt to contact the server while sitting at my FreeBSD machine, the lag aloso occurs. This lag is only present when someone is dialling in to me; when PPP is not running, or I'm connected to my ISP, the problem doesn't occur. Any suggestions? Please email me at either root@ppp0002.log.on.ca or, if you can't get through, andrew@log.on.ca Thanks in advance to anyone willing to offer suggestions. Yours Truly, Andrew Stevens.

I seem to recall the install thingy asks about that. In the install, you make the disk bootable, and it asks you if you want to modufy the Master Boot Record. If you don't get that right, you don't get a 'bootable' (ie, no system) disk. I forget the exact sequence, havent done an install for ages. but thats where the problem is. bob Vincent Rodriguez wrote: > Ok, I have reached a point where my pride has been squished, my snity > shredded, and my patience frayed beyond belief! > > I have been trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.2 on my system for the last > 4 > weeks.

Even making the It's not being a programmer or a PC technician which is required for a newbie to install FreeBSD. In fact, we don't even know what is required, yet.

This, of course, is the crux of the matter. When you find errors or things that could be more clear in the documentation, you are encouraged to use send-pr (a command available once FBSD is installed, or also available through a web interface from www.freebsd.org) to report them. If you include a Fix, that's even cooler (since the problem isn't that people think the docs are perfect, its that people don't feel like fixing them). PS. It is good. :) But it can take time to appreciate this, largely due to what you would call user-unfriendliness. -- tIM...HOEk OPTIMIZATION: the process of using many one-letter variables names hoping that the resultant code will run faster.

I should have kept my fingers quite. You see, I look at FreeBSD as a _production_ system. And frankly, I've found that it does as good a job and in some areas better that commercial Unices like AIX, Solaris and AT&TSVR4. In fact I use it in just such an environment. My experience with Linux is that it poops out under load -- and some of the distributions aren't much better than NT. Blame the pud whackers who put together the distributions -- not the kernel.

It did not (last time I looked) make an adequate distinction however between the "standard" C library functionality and the bolt-on extras that it includes. As such, I'd consider it a poor first-level reference.

I'm looking at one from Dec. 23, 1994, and they do seem to note for most documented functionality wether its GNU, Posix, BSD, ANSI, or "MS-DOG". Additionally, an Appendix B lists each library facility (ie. functions, macros, headers), followed by _one_ of ANSI, BSD, POSIX.1, POSIX.2, GNU, SVID, Unix, SunOS, or Unknown origin. [Oh, ok. There are a couple places where they list BSD & SVID, but most list only one] -- Outnumbered? Maybe. Outspoken?

I think its more of a question of how reliable is everything else. i.e. do you have a UPS in case of power loss, are there any apps you are running that would crash the machine for whatever reason. Async just means that there is more data at any given time in memory that is waiting to be written out. Running async lets the OS write are more convienient times. A good example is do a config with /usr mounted sync, and then async. You will see quite a difference in the time it takes. I have my newsspool mounted async, which is a pretty write intensive setup as you can imagine, and I have not had any problems to date (knock on wood). But again, its not that write behind caching is dangerous, its just dangerous if you have a crash. ---Mike From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 13 21:47:05 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id VAA22394 for questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 Aug 1997 21:47:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from radford.i-plus.net (root@Radford.i-Plus.net [206.99.237.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id VAA22386 for ; Wed, 13 Aug 1997 21:47:03 -0700 (PDT) Received: from totally (insane@totally.nutty.net [206.99.237.44]) by radford.i-plus.net (8.8.6/8.8.5) with SMTP id AAA02468; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:44:22 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199708140444.AAA02468@radford.i-plus.net> From: "Troy Settle" To: "Andrew E.

Sounds like a DNS problem. If these two boxes are the only two on the network, you can edit /etc/host.conf to tell the resolver to check /etc/hosts first, then DNS. Then, make the appropriate entries in the hosts file. Same thing on the other end. Or, if you're interest is learning about TCP/IP networking and the Internet, go ahead and get BIND set up. All the info you need is in the man page (man named).

Just go through without modifying anything, then tell it to install the boot manager to the MBR. After that, proceed to wd1, and set up your file systems for FreeBSD. Again, tell it to install the boot manager to the MBR. When you go to boot your system, you should recieve a menu, saying something like: F1 DOS F5 Second HD Select F5 for the second HD, then select F1 (or whatever) for FreeBSD, and it should boot.

This isn't a question of a 'dead server', it's a question of a server which is supposed to be authoritative for a zone, but which passes the buck: it isn't. In this case, the caller was looking for the zone 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA, the reverse lookup zone for addresses beginning with 206.98.115.x. According to nslookup, the name servers for this zone are: + === grog@freebie (/dev/ttyp0) ~ 6 -> nslookup + Default Server: freebie.lemis.com + Address: 0.0.0.0 + + > set type=soa + > 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA + Server: freebie.lemis.com + Address: 0.0.0.0 + + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA + origin = aureate.com + mail addr = hostmaster.aureate.com + serial = 38 + refresh = 172800 (2 days) + retry = 3600 (1 hour) + expire = 1728000 (20 days) + minimum ttl = 172800 (2 days) + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = vader.aureate.com + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = www2.thnet.com + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = ns2.mci.net + vader.aureate.com internet address = 206.98.115.1 + ns2.mci.net internet address = 204.70.57.242 See that last line? ns2.mci.net is supposed to be authoritative for the zone. So let's ask it: + > server ns2.mci.net + Default Server: ns2.mci.net + Address: 204.70.57.242 + + > 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA + Server: ns2.mci.net + Address: 204.70.57.242 + + *** ns2.mci.net can't find 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA: Non-existent host/domain So named tries another server, and this time it's lucky: + > server vader.aureate.com + Default Server: vader.aureate.com + Address: 206.98.115.1 + + > 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA + Server: vader.aureate.com + Address: 206.98.115.1 + + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA + origin = aureate.com + mail addr = hostmaster.aureate.com + serial = 38 + refresh = 172800 (2 days) + retry = 3600 (1 hour) + expire = 1728000 (20 days) + minimum ttl = 172800 (2 days) + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = vader.aureate.com + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = www2.thnet.com + 115.98.206.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = ns2.mci.net + vader.aureate.com internet address = 206.98.115.1 + ns2.mci.net internet address = 204.70.57.242 This costs you time, so it's not completely harmless. The Right Thing to do is to send mail to the DNS administrator for the zone. They should be grateful--for some reason, reverse delegation causes a lot of headaches (I know, I'm currently fighting DE-NIC about 197.109.192.in-addr.arpa). To contact the administrator, look at this line from above: + mail addr = hostmaster.aureate.com This is a real kludge. BIND uses the symbol @ for other purposes, so you can't put it in the mail address. Replace the first . in the address with a @, and you get the real address: hostmaster@aureate.com. I'm copying him on this message. Paul, the original sender, wrote: >> it seems my domain is not visible at times from various local >> carriers... up on one down on the other both up both down... it is >> making me kinda nervous? Yes, I couldn't find your address (thsos.com) either, at least not from aureate.com's name server. This seems to be a different problem.

I recommend avoiding this if you can; all of your passwords will cease to function unless you can figure out a way to convert them to MD5 before you pull the swap. I realize that md5 is probably more secure, but md5->des is really a one-way street. Usually you need DES if you are doing any inter-system authentication, ie rsh. I understand tho if you're moving out of the US or some other similiar restriction.

I have a system in which I am not able to configure cd-rom over second IDE port.... at boot time Kernel sees second IDE port on interrupt 15 but not able to get the cd-rom devices attached to it. But in case of first IDE port the HDD connected to it gets recognised... I have tried this with all the master/slave configuration... But if cd-rom is connected as slave on first IDE controller it works well on FreeBSD as well as on Windows 95.... While on Windows 95 wheather I connect cd-rom on first or second IDE port... it works well on both positions.... I have problem in configuring IDE cd-rom and Hard Disk on same IDE controller as this is a 16 X cd-rom drive and I do not get faster throughput if configured on the same controller as of hard disk... So I need to keep switching IDE controllers physically if I need to run FreeBSD. Can anyone help me in configuring IDE hard disk on first IDE controller and cd-rom over the second IDE controller... Thanks in advance for any positive thoughts.... Prashant.

Is this a bug in mount, NFS, tar, or me? I wasn't aware nfs mounts crossed mountpoints.

You've probably allocated the entire disk to Windows, even though you haven't set up any logical partitions. You'll want to use FIPS or Partition Magic to resize your extended partition to make this space completely unallocated. FIPS is available in the CDROM in /tools.

The ports are just patches that allow you to compile the program. If you drop into the port directory and type 'make' the port will fetch the distribution program for you, if you have a network connection or have the CD mounted, then patch & build the program. Run 'make install' as root to install the port into the system. Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ and that should help clear you up.

Yesterday I burned my first CD. In fact I had to change something in the shell skript burncd.sh. The line rtprio 5 team -v 1m 5 < $fname | rtprio 5 dd of=/dev/rworm0 obs=20k worked better for me as rtprio 5 team -v 1m 10 < $fname | rtprio 10 dd of=/dev/rworm0 obs=20k It seemed as if the writing process had been stopped by the reading process if both had the same priority. The latter case worked ok. Anyway, I switched off lots of daemons, even killed X to be safe and doubled the number of team-processes. I don't know if I'm more safe when I further increase the priority of the dd process. But this is not the main question. The important questions are: 1) How to burn an Audio CD ? 2) How to burn a Mixed-Mode CD ? 3) How to burn a Multisession-CD ? The CD I burned yesterday has been fixated with the onp flag so I think I can write to it again. How can I do this ? With Gear/Win95 I could simply append data to the track. Is this also possible with makeisofs/wormcontrol ? Another problem was that it wasn't possible to omit the -N flag. I always got errors and mkisofs died. Is it because of the rockridge extensions ? I must say that I used long filenames on the CD. Ok, thanx for your answers ! Bye, Udo -- Udo Wolter, email: uwp@cs.tu-berlin.de !!! LOW-TECH Page: http://low-tech.home.ml.org !!!

If it doesn't like that or you're having problems see http://www.freebsd.org/~brian for an upgrae. If you're using pppd you need to add 'proxyarp' to your config file.

In the FAQs somewhere it mentions that FreeBSD will work with the OnTrack disk manager. Since I am a user of that I assumed it would be OK for me to just choose the BootEasy option when installing a boot manager. I did and it ended up erasing my driver software, making it impossible for me to access my D: drive (2GB) which contained everything but Windows 95. Why is it that FreeBSD stuffed up my driver software despite it saying it was OK in the FAQ? (BTW I got all my data back) 2. Later I went back and tried to install again. This time I chose 'None' for the boot manager option. I restarted my computer and was again slightly alarmed when I got the FreeBSD boot menu instead of 'Starting Windows '95'. I went into FDisk and reset the active partition to what it was before. Is there any better way of doing this (since I can't use BootEasy) Can I boot from a disk and have it automatically go into FreeBSD? 3. In both of the attempts before, it stopped installing when it got to 'Chunk 29 of 74' (about 40%) I thought I hadn't allocated enough to the / directory (I'd only given it 20M since I was running low on space) so I went and changed it to 50M. Same problem. Is there a problem with the BIN file and if so, is there an easy way to check if they downloaded OK? 4. What's the deal with this 2*MEM size for the swap file system? The way I interpret that it means you need a swapfile double the size of how much physical RAM you have. Shouldn't it be that the more RAM you have (I have 16M) the less swap space you need? Please explain. 5. The distribution options (like User, X-User, Developer, etc) are REALLY confusing! Can I simply assume all options are covered in the 70 BIN files you download, or do I need to get more files to use things like the ports collection? 6. How do I resize my primary partition on a disk? I did it once but it's too big and I can't figure out how to do it again. Thanks for your time.

What are you attempting to accomplish? Are you trying to get postscript printing to work? etc? I'd suggest installing apsfilter, which should be in the ports tree under 'print'. That will set you up for postscript and text printing.

These problems are usually caused by geometry disagreements between the BIOS and the rest of the world. There isn't much you can do without starting over from scratch. I'd suggest trying OS-BS, which should be near where you found the booteasy installer (bootinst).

Am I barking up the wrong file tree? :-) -alldirs only allows a client machine to mount any directory under the server's mountpoint; it doesn't have any affect on traversing a (server) mount point. Basically, what he's doing above isn't complete. He needs to have "mount newcomputer:/usr /newcomputer/usr", as well as any other filesystems that are mounted on newcomputer's /. NFS has always been like this and I think the reason has to do with how file handles are generated. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 00:09:27 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id AAA00672 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:09:27 -0700 (PDT) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (cisco-ts6-line16.uoregon.edu [128.223.150.46]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id AAA00652 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:09:21 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id AAA02244; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:09:13 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:09:13 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White X-Sender: dwhite@localhost Reply-To: Doug White To: Paul Dekkers cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Problems with disk and/or ext2?

I'd have to forward those error to hackers@freebsd.org to find the actual problem, but it looks like part of your ext2fs is damaged.

You probably installed the Linux versions of X and not the FreeBSD versions. While the X versions may work, the FreeBSD ones are going to do a lot better. The FreeBSD versions are on ftp://ftp.freebsd.org in /pub/FreeBSD/x.x.x-RELEASE/XF86xx, depending on what version of FreeBSD you have.

When you opt to run the bad block scan it fails at the 2048 MByte point with every block past there being reported as an error. This happens whether the drive is in LBA or NORMAL mode. Will FreeBSD support a partition over 2048MBytes in length, or is this just a problem with the bad block scanning program? Also if you scan an IDE hard drive over 512MByte without LBA mode the bad block table gets written above the 512MByte boundry (1024cylinder) making the drive unbootable. Is there a way to get the bad track table to reside below cylinder 1024? Regards Craig.

Hi ... I used a port called cd-write to copy the audio tracks from a audio cd, to see if I could write them back again ... I was able to write suck a cd, using the cd-write port again :) but it wasn't 100% working :) Maybe someone could answer this ... can I use dd to dump an entire cd (/dev/worm0) to a file and then just use dump it back again or use the burn shell script .. mmhhmm probably not .... because then it will be only one track :/ > 2) How to burn a Mixed-Mode CD ? Not sure ... haven't done this .. YET ... (making some more Frisbees :) ) > 3) How to burn a Multisession-CD ? This I got working ... using the following programs ... (This is all done on a 3.0-SNAP) package - mkisofs-1.10.tgz (it has multisession support) cdrecord-1.5a4 (there might be another coice for this ... I only use it to get the correct info for mkisofs) A modified makecdfs.sh - multicdfs.sh (included below) A modified burncd.sh Basically the first image is created using the standard makecdfs.sh and then burned using the burncd.sh # sh burncd.sh session1.img onp Then I use cdrecord to get the correct info for mkisofs for the next session (if there is another way, let me know :) ) The readme files in cdrecord also describes this process well .. e.g. # ./cdrecord -msinfo -dev=0,6,0 12765, 23456 <--- output generated You then create your next file system .. preferably in a separete directory :) .. e.g. session1/dir1 and session2/dir2 and then do a # sh muticdfs.sh session2 ses2.img 12765 23456 This will then greate a multi session image to write to the CD using burncd.sh # sh burncd.sh ses2.img onp The onp is optional ... if you don't want to write any more sesions, just don't add it to the command One thing that just bothers me a bit, has to do with the long file names ... the root on the cd, after the first session could already have a Rock ridge translation file on it ... ?? You will see that I have opted to leave out the -T option on mkisofs ... because I don't know what will happen if there is more than one file with the same name trying to be written to the root of the CD ?? Anyone with any ideas on this ? Anyway .. I have written a CD with a few sessions on it and was able to retrieve the data again :) after it has been mounted, so it seems to work :) Bye Reinier From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 00:54:25 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id AAA03473 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:54:25 -0700 (PDT) Received: from oskar.nanoteq.co.za (oskar.nanoteq.co.za [163.195.220.170]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id AAA03464 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 00:54:16 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from rbezuide@localhost) by oskar.nanoteq.co.za (8.8.5/8.8.5) id JAA21117; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 09:53:59 +0200 (SAT) From: Reinier Bezuidenhout Message-Id: <199708140753.JAA21117@oskar.nanoteq.co.za> Subject: Re: Burning CDs In-Reply-To: <9708140659.AA16279@merlin.ukrv.de> from Udo Wolter at "Aug 14, 97 08:59:34 am" To: uwp@ukrv.de (Udo Wolter) Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 09:53:59 +0200 (SAT) Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL28 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi ..

First, try making an ftp connection from the firewall *itself*. If you get the same error from ftp.tis.com (or ftp.uu.net -- another good one to try), then the remote ftp server cannot resolve your *firewall* machine's address to a name. If that's the case, natd has nothing to do with it. Next, log onto a machine *outside* your domain and use `dig' or `nslookup' to do a reverse lookup against your firewall machine's address (i.e., against the `in_addr.arpa' name corresponding to your firewall's IP address). If it fails, do a reverse lookup for the SOA record to see what machine is responsible for that `in_addr.arpa' domain. Possibilities: 1. The address won't resolve, but you get *your* SOA record for the `in_addr.arpa' domain. Problem: Your DNS isn't properly handling reverse lookups. Solution: Fix your DNS. 2. The address won't resolve, and you *don't* get yo ur SOA record for the `in_addr.arpa' domain. Possible problem: Your provider hasn't delegated your class C address to you in their DNS. I've seen this happen a lot. A firm contracts with a network provider for connectivity. The provider allocates the firm a class C address from the provider's CIDR block, but they neglect to delegate the corresponding `in_addr.arpa' domain to the firm. Solution: Contact your network provider and request that they properly delegate the `in_addr.arpa' reverse-lookup domain for your class C address. ----- Brian Clapper, bmc@WillsCreek.COM, http://WWW.WillsCreek.COM/ Like so many Americans, she was trying to construct a life that made sense from things she found in gift shops. -- Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 05:00:18 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id FAA13155 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 05:00:18 -0700 (PDT) Received: from gatekeeper.ukrv.de (gatekeeper.ukrv.de [193.175.72.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id FAA13150 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 05:00:15 -0700 (PDT) Received: by gatekeeper.ukrv.de; (5.65/1.1.8.2/17Oct95-0336PM) id AA03172; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:59:54 +0200 Received: from mailhost(193.175.66.33) by gatekeeper.ukrv.de via smap (V1.3-JSC) id sma003162; Thu Aug 14 13:59:27 1997 Received: from merlin.ukrv.de by mailhost.ukrv.de; (5.65/1.1.8.2/08Mar95-0213PM) id AA14799; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:59:27 +0200 Received: by merlin.ukrv.de (4.1/UKRV-Gen PCG 0.1) id AA17095; Thu, 14 Aug 97 13:59:26 +0200 From: Udo Wolter Message-Id: <9708141159.AA17095@merlin.ukrv.de> Subject: Re: Burning CDs In-Reply-To: <199708140749.JAA20898@oskar.nanoteq.co.za> from Reinier Bezuidenhout at "Aug 14, 97 09:49:15 am" To: rbezuide@oskar.nanoteq.co.za (Reinier Bezuidenhout) Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:59:26 +0200 (MET DST) Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL31 (25)] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk > > 1) How to burn an Audio CD ? > > Hi ...

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I've run into a few problems with both ijppp and pppd. During periods of increased modem activity (so it seems) FCS errors are reported (as HDLC errors in ijppp) and the link becomes unusable. pppd reports about 50 such errors and then the link gets terminated. I've tried the obvious things; reducing the connect speed, port speed, double-checking the flow control, etc. No useful results. What is interesting is that this only seems to be a problem when connecting with a digital box. It shows up both with our Ascend Max and our Portmaster 3. It doesn't seem to ever happen when connecting to a PM2e and an analog modem. I've double-checked the configurations on our digital boxen, and they are configured to use RTS/CTS only, just like my side of the connection. As I was writing this, during a period of relatively low activity, pppd reported another FCS error and disconnected. Is anyone familiar with this problem or have any similar experience or insight?

But I wanted to let you know. thanks, David Edwards david@portanc.com From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 05:37:13 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id FAA14885 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 05:37:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from portanc.com (portanc.com [206.74.11.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id FAA14873 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 05:37:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from toshi (toshi [69.0.0.203]) by portanc.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id UAA01153 for ; Wed, 13 Aug 1997 20:36:21 GMT Message-Id: <199708132036.UAA01153@portanc.com> Comments: Authenticated sender is From: "David Edwards" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 08:31:47 +0000 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: panic Reply-to: david@portanc.com Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v2.53/R1) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I am running FreeBSD 2.2.2 on a Pentium 200, with 64K of memory. Since upgrading to this release, This machine displays a panic .... message, and reboots. When this happens, it doesn't reset the necessary flags (fsck). So I must manually fsck the system. This problem occurrs even with the Generic Kernel release. I have regened the system, increasing # of users to 25, and enabling sio2 and sio3. I am not always watching the machine, when it reboots, I just hear a: drive start on reboot. I have only run 2.2.2 on this Pentium machine. I was running the previous version of BSD on an INTEL DX4-100. I upgraded the BSD OS, and the Hardware at the same time. Rebooting is no problem, except that it can easily trash my disks. What are my options here? o Can I copy a kernel from FreeBSD 2.2.1 and see if it also panics? o How long till the next release. o Suggestions and comments would be appreciated.

It was enough along with a tip I read on the freebsd page to help me find the problem. I have two IDE drives in the system. The first is on the primary IDE bus with WIN95 and FREEBSD. There is a CDROM as a slave off this drive. The next IDE disk is on the secondary IDE bus by itself. It has an extended DOS partition on it and shows up as drive D: under DOS. BSD sees this disk as wd2. The problem turned out to be that there was no device file in /dev for wd2s5. There was a wd2s1 wd2s2 wd2s3 wd2s4. So I used the MAKEDEV command and created wd2s5 and voila I could mount the DOS partition. Thanks, -- Tom :) ------ Thomas D.

And what version of the K56flex chip do you have? (ATi3) I know for PM3s it will not work with less than V1.0-56K_DLS.

On the win95 box, the driver handles everything. No need for PS on the win95 box. If there is, for some reason, then it's easy to share the printer resource from the Samba side and use the shared printer from the win95 box. It bounces the print file around a bit and makes the led on the Ethernet card blink, but it really is nice to have the printer driver bells and whistles that the win95 drivers have. It becomes even more desirable when the printer is a large format HP or Xerox or whatever, or when it's a PS printer that is serially attached to the win95 box that chats back through the serial port. With any of the appletalk equivalents integrated with Samba it makes it a reasonable way to talk to Apple printers, too.

If you look at the ftp site referenced you will quite clearly see patches against 1.2.0. To make them work against 1.2.1 isn't very hard.

Try 1.2.1. It will probably fix your problem. What do you mean patched to use one file for each virtualhost?

You can also partly adjust such things with sysctl: kern.maxfiles: 2088 kern.maxfilesperproc: 2088 You can also do something like "ulimit -n unlimited" (in a bourne shell; you can figure out the syntax for csh if you want) before starting Apache, which may increase them. However, the fact is that some of the name resolver routines are broken and limited to 256 fds on 2.2 unless you recompile libc with a higher FD_SETSIZE. There is a little bit in the Apache FAQ about this. Using 1.2.1 should work around this problem.

I added the 0x80 flag to sio3 and saw the phase 3 error. When I commented out the check for phase 3 in /sys/i386/isa/sio.c and remade the kernel, I didn't get the error (of course), but it wouldn't work still. The lines I changed were: /* EXTRA DELAY? */ failures[0] = inb(iobase + com_cfcr) - CFCR_8BITS; failures[1] = inb(iobase + com_ier) - IER_ETXRDY; failures[2] = inb(iobase + com_mcr) - mcr_image; DELAY(10000); /* Some internal modems need this time */ /* if (idev->id_irq != 0) * failures[3] = isa_irq_pending(idev) ? 0 : 1;*/ DELAY(1000); /* XXX */ failures[4] = (inb(iobase + com_iir) & IIR_IMASK) - IIR_TXRDY; The irq was set with a jumper so I know it was correct. From the answers I got from the list archives, I assumed that it was a UART problem. I guessed that the normal 16550 wouldn't work with the 56k line, so they had developed a new 16550? to run it. Either that, or it was a 16550 emulation. (I had posted the UART info in an message to the list, but I can't find it in the archives.)

So what I done is download the CTM/src-cur directory tree, and then run: ctm -v -u /location/CTM/src-cur/src-cur.3000xEmpty.gz , which is dated Aug 9 14:22. First thing I get is the message that .ctm_status not found, and then a list of messages that file XXX exists. When I check the tree, I find that nothing has been updated. Based on what I thought I read, this should have brought the source tree upto Aug 9th. What is it that I missed??? thanks, Jim Ballantine From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 13:19:53 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id NAA10861 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:19:53 -0700 (PDT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id NAA10856 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:19:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: from camail2.harvard.edu (camail2.harvard.edu [128.103.26.23]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.6/8.8.5) with ESMTP id NAA00914 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 13:19:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: from Harvard.edu.Harvard.edu ([128.103.227.152]) by camail2.harvard.edu (post.office MTA v2.0 0813 ID# 0-12718) with SMTP id AAA22628 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 16:18:31 -0400 X-Sender: jfreedma@camail2.harvard.edu X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.1.2 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: support@freebsd.com From: Justin Freedman Subject: Ferrbsd & 80M Memory Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 16:18:31 -0400 Message-ID: <19970814201830.AAA22628@Harvard.edu.Harvard.edu> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I found the information I needed.

The xargs program cheerfully makes two > arguments to rm for it...and there goes your master.passwd. A good reason for not using `xargs'. However, the cleanup script uses `find ... -exec rm -f {} \;' which correctly hands the whole filename, whitespace and all, as its argument to `rm'. Still haven't seen anything that would indicate a security issue as yet. -- Jonathan Chen e-mail : jonc@pinnacle.co.nz Pinnacle Software Ltd Voice : +64.9.415.4460 Auckland, New Zealand Fax : +64.9.415.4250 From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 14:44:14 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id OAA15263 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 14:44:14 -0700 (PDT) Received: from python.shoal.net.au (perrya@python.shoal.net.au [203.26.44.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id OAA15237 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 14:43:58 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (perrya@localhost) by python.shoal.net.au (8.8.6/8.8.5) with SMTP id HAA17352; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 07:43:39 +1000 (EST) Date: Fri, 15 Aug 1997 07:43:39 +1000 (EST) From: Andrew To: okwill@intertravel.com cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: error message In-Reply-To: <199708141554.KAA04045@mail.intertravel.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Have a look through the archives, basically you need a file /etc/login.conf If you installed the /usr/src/etc sources then copy it from there.

I have the advantage that I can see both sides of the connection, since I work for the ISP that I use. The PM3 is reporting "Circuit Disconnect" which sounds to me like a nasty problem. I'm perplexed as to why it happens with both Ascend Max and Livingston Portmaster machines... the only thing really in common is that they use digital modems on PRIs.

Qpage stuffs messages to those just fine, once you RTFM and figure out you have to dial the 888 number to page to the PCS stuff. The protocol is the TAP protocol, so Qpage, Tpage, Hylafax, or Sendpage should work fine, though I recommend Qpage, because it's the easiest, as Hylafax wants to do a lot more than just paging, and the other two haven't been submitted to the ports collection yet, that I'm aware of.

If what Adaptec says is true, then it should, or could be made to, work. Be leary though when they say 2940 compatibility. They'll probably mean it is a 785x or 786x (786x is found on the 2940AU) based controller. These controllers only have room for 3 commands at a time on the controller, whereas the 2940UW and the vanilla (non Ultra) 2940[W] have storage for 16 commands on the controller. The FreeBSD driver supports paging SCBs (these commands) in and out of the controllers storage area, so it can achieve better performance (paging is supported for all 78xx chip sets). If you performance is an issue, consider the 2940UW. If not, the 2910B should be fine (as long as it is a supported chipset). The NCR controllers are well supported under FreeBSD and also cost much less than the Adaptec controllers.

Sorry, I only got ahold of the PR166 model (new 133MHz rev, not the 150MHz one), so here is some info about my experiences. I don't have a system for "make worlds" so I won't be able to test that for you guys. 1) Is this chip fast? Feels much faster than an K5-PR166. Coretest disk I/O also went up from about 10.8MB/sec to almost 13MB/sec on the Quantum BigFoot 4Gig EIDE. 2) The chip requires a very new Bios update on the motherboard or it may not even bootup. (Panics when booting FreeBSD 3.0/2.2.2 on an older MB i.e. VXpro). 3) You can now use the 586 compile settings for the kernel, so unlike the predecessor 6x86 or 6x86L, the 6x86MX seems to be a "Pentium instruction set" clone. 3) On a motherboard with an older bios (before the 6x86MX's arrival), comptest.exe in dos says it is a 486. On this new (very new) motherboard (TXpro) comptest says it is a Pentium running at 196MHz. AMI Bios v1.4 I believe... 7/15/97 Whether it is a true Pentium clone I don't know, but perhaps without the proper bios it won't be configured right and it may require 486 compile settings (???). 4) I have tried the new chip with FreeBSD 3.0-June something snap and it works great. Also with FreeBSD 2.2.2 RELENG and it also works fine. 5) Probe Message: shell: {14} dmesg Copyright (c) 1992-1997 FreeBSD Inc.

This was done with 32MB 10ns 100MHz sdram with fastest BIOS settings. Your results may vary depending on the the cpu clock. This new motherboard has 512K onboard and is a TXpro (ALI Alladin IV+ Chipset), so I don't think it is too bad for a 133MHz processor (66x2). Setting npx flags as 0x7 also helps improve memory speed. shell: {14} dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1m count=1000 1000+0 records in 1000+0 records out 1048576000 bytes transferred in 13.358422 secs (78495499 bytes/sec) shell: {15} dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1m count=1000 1000+0 records in 1000+0 records out 1048576000 bytes transferred in 13.506459 secs (77635152 bytes/sec) shell: {16} dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1m count=1000 1000+0 records in 1000+0 records out 1048576000 bytes transferred in 12.914553 secs (81193364 bytes/sec) 7) My Conclusion: Not bad for a chip that's only a little over $100.

You don't say what directory you are in when you type the CTM command. What I do (with 2.2-stable): % cd /usr/CTM/src-2.2 # this is where my incoming src-2.2 CTM's go % cat /usr/src/.ctm* # see how current I am % ls -lt | head # see how far behind I am % ctm -u -b /usr/src list_of_what's_missing I do the same thing for ports. Notice I use -b to set the "base" directory, where ctm will update. If that directory is empty and you start with an *Empty* then it should fill appropriately. Suggest you start with an empty base directory. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

I have copied the entire CD to my hard disk and installed FreeBSD from a DOS partition. None of the ports or packages will install.

When I installed FreeBSD I told it to give me everything under the sun, but still the /usr/local/distfiles directory is empty. I don't have a network connection, and I don't have a CD player that FreeBSD recognizes. Is it possible to get either the ports or the packages installed from my dos partition??? If so, please provide me with instructions. I guess I would rather install the packages since its easire, right?

Since you're installing FreeBSD on a 4.3 Gb disk, I suspect you're probably lying to the system about the disk geometry. Go back into your BIOS, setup the disk geometry to reflect what the disk REALLY has, and then re-install FreeBSD. You'll need to make sure in the slice editor that it knows the REAL geometry as well. If this doesn't work, send me the 4.3 Gb disk. I'll send you back a nice 1.2 Gb disk with FreeBSD pre-installed on it. ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

To find out, disable the automatic start of sendmail. After booting, first start tcpdump as follows, then sendmail.

That's a possibility, but sendmail is clever enough (if you have the right sendmail.cf) to recognize where the mail needs to go. It doesn't need another sendmail on your system. But it's possible that sendmail.cf is wrong. > If I need to go RTFM a bit more, point me in the right direction please :-) Take a look at sendmail.cf. One possibility is the following pair of lines. You should have something similar in your sendmail.cf. # Don't insist that the BIND name server be running to resolve names # OI Note that this says "don't insist". You might still have problems. When I was running over a demand dialup link, I solved this by compiling sendmail to ignore DNS altogether. I think there's some comment in the Makefile; otherwise it should be in README or something like that.

To malign one of Mr. Clemens more famous quotes: There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and benchmarks. That would depend on whether you want your files fast, or want them to still exist when the power goes out. On Linux, the default is mount drives asynchronously, on the BSD the default is synchronous. To quote from the FreeBSD mount(8) man page: The options are as follows: ... -o Options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma separat- ed string of options. The following options are available: async All I/O to the file system should be done asynchronously. This is a dangerous flag to set, and should not be used unless you are prepared to recreate the file system The options are there, and the choice is yours. For a web server that gets a *lot* of hits, or a news server, you may want to use async. Do really good backups on your web files. For a mail server, if you consider your mail important, I wouldn't think of it. For a development system or other volatile but somewhat non-critical, async might be a possibility. I certainly wouldn't use it on *my* central source code repository. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Not necessary. The man page for 'setsockopt' will tell you many interesting things about the behavior of sockets. In general, network sockets have an input and an output buffer, like any other communication port, and the real I/O does not happen until the buffer is full or a timeout period has expired. Getsockopt will show you these settings and setsockopt will allow you to change them. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Sun used to grumble and groan, and occasionally even refuse to provide support, if you changed root's shell, especially to something not provided by Sun. The old-timers answer to your question is to make a root synonym account that uses the shell of choice. For instance, all of my systems have a rootb account with UID and GID 0, and the shell set to bash.

AFAIK there's no limit on how many Ethernet interfaces you can enable, just as long as you have the devices to back them up. if you didn't want to use some of the cards, you could just neglect to tell the kernel about them. To drive more than one card, you'll have to rebuild your kernel, but that's very simple. > (Yes I really need to compare which os the best is for me, I still don't > exacltly know, FreeBSD seems more stable, sometimes one of my linux > servers crashes... :-( (because of too many processes or smt. too heavy > load)) Yup. :-) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 14 23:45:39 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id XAA12266 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 23:45:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id XAA12259 for ; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 23:45:37 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id XAA17658; Thu, 14 Aug 1997 23:45:32 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 14 Aug 1997 23:45:31 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Ian Howson cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: A bunch of questions on FreeBSD In-Reply-To: <199708140703.AAA24388@geocities.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Thu, 14 Aug 1997, Ian Howson wrote: > I am currently working on getting FreeBSD installed and would appreciate it > very much if you could answer some of my questions. > > 1.

(BTW I got all my data back) FreeBSD will work fine with OnTrack, but booteasy won't since OnTrack is installed in the system's boot sector, which is where booteasy installs itself too. You'll have to find a different boot selector that doesn't install anything into the boot sector. The OS/2 / PartitionMagic selector might not do this, but you have to have 2mb of unallocated space to install it. > 2. Later I went back and tried to install again.

Please explain. To a point. When you get into sizes >128mb, you can relax that some, but it depends on what you're doing.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk This relates to FreeBSD Disk Partitions spontaneously ' vanishing' on several of our high-profile machines. I posted a brief message a month or so ago, but the problem has been recurring so I've decided to include a bit more detail. If you have a couple of minutes I'd REALLY appreciate if you can look through the following and make ANY comments that might throw light on this frustrating problem. _____________________________________________________________ We've been testing FreeBSD 2.2.2 on several Pentium and 486 boxes for several months with good results. So much so that I persuaded my boss to cancel an order for some new HP workstations and instead buy 3 high end Pentium IIs, to run as FreeBSD workstations. These are Gateway Pentium II (266 MHz, 64MB ram, 3.2GB EIDE Disk). No problems with the install, except I had to bypass the ULTRA DMA disk interface, and just plug the disk straight into the IDE controller on the motherboard. Gateway confirmed there is no problem with doing this and it seemed to work fine. Here is the original partition setup for the one which failed last night for third time. It's representative of the other two machines which have also both failed at different times. The stripes are in the following sequence on disk. DOS stripe 350MB Main BSD Stripe 2GB (Bootable) Second BSD Stripe 750MB (Not Bootable This was kept separate in case I needed to give it back to DOS later). The partitions created inside my main BSD Stripe were: / 64M swap 200M /var 200M /usr 750M /scratch1 780M Hence my root partition lies well within the first 504MB limit (as talked about on p29 of The Complete FreeBSD book). The second BSD Stripe was just one partition /scratch2 = 750MB. Following the install the machine runs fine for up to several weeks. In each case the failure seems to have occurred at night and we suspect a power loss or surge causing a spontaneous reboot. The machines are all securely locked away after hours. Definitely no likelihood of them all being 'hacked' at. Basically when I arrive at work I'm greeted with the console screen, cycling with the following: F1 . . . DOS F3 . . . BSD Default F2 (it waits 5 seconds then repeats these 3 lines) If I select F1, The machine will boot to DOS OK. If I select F2 I just get the same thing cycling again. If I select F3 it tries to boot off the third stripe, but naturally fails with a 'Can't find kernel' message since that isn't a bootable stripe. If I then boot from a FreeBSD Install Floppy, as it comes up it sees the hard disk as follows: wd0: 3079MB (6306048 sectors), 6256 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S After it boots from the floppy, if I go in and look at the Partitions here's what I see: ___________________________________________________________________________ __ Disk Name: wd0 Disk Geometry: 782 cyls / 128 heads / 63 sectors = 6306048 sectors Offset Size End Name Ptype Desc Subtype Flags 0 63 62 - 6 unused 0 63 685377 685439 wd0s1 2 fat 6 685440 4088448 4773887 - 6 unused 0 4773888 1532160 6306047 wd0s3 3 freebsd 165 C ___________________________________________________________________________ ____ The second-last stripe, which was my BSD boot stripe is showing up as unused!! What other info can I give you to go on? The 2 lots of BIOS info that comes up as it boots is as follows: Matrox Power Graphics Accelerator MGA Series VGA/VBE BIOS V2.2 Copyright Matrox Graphics Inc Copyright LSI Logic Corp AMI BIOS BIOS VERSION 1.00.01.DT0T (c) 1992 - 1997 Intel Corp ___________________________________________________________________ I've left the most recent failure basically as it was after the failure, in case any one suggests anything else I can check out etc. If anyone out there has ANY suggestions I'd really appreciate them. I'm under a heap of pressure from the boss to scrap the FreeBSD concept on these boxes and run them up as NT boxes.! And that would really be frustrating after all the time I've put into this. So come on guys suggestions Pleeease!

Look at my dd-test: Linux fBSD fBSD with async (linux with sync) dd-test 2.61 4.95 4.78 2m06 (!!) also with the other tests fBSD is still slower and the sync is faster, even faster than last time without async, so FreeBSD really wrote everything already. and I'm sure the / was mounted with async! (checked with mount) i'm using an i486 with 40mb's of memory so that should be enough for FreeBSD to do something :-) -= Paul =- P.S. ext2 with sync mounted is terribly slow! Comparing that with fbsd, fbsd is faster in writing really to disk.

Not true. The reliability of the filesystem is the same. The possibility of filesystem corruption should the power suddenly go out increases though.

You may want to patch the boot code (not a pleasant hack, unless you're into this sort of things) or update your OS version. For the latter, there are two options: 1. Update via sysinstall, meaning you make a boot floppy of a newer release or snapshot and use it to upgrade. You can use any of the supported install method for that, and you'll have to do some manual editing of the config files in /etc as they've changed greatly since 2.1 days. 2. Update from sources.

(maybe mount /var with sync, en /www (or smth) with async ...) nic% time 0.080u 0.070s 0:06.48 2.3% 176+96k 0+0io 0pf+0w nic% time dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1024 count=5000 5000+0 records in 5000+0 records out 0.010u 1.010s 0:01.83 55.7% 0+0k 0+0io 13pf+0w nic% time sync 0.010u 0.320s 0:01.97 16.7% 11+0k 0+0io 8pf+0w >The options are there, and the choice is yours.

I'm not sure if it's that unsafe; running sync writes everything to disk, so after updating your websites just run sync and I'll be happy :-) -= Paul =- From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 15 04:25:49 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id EAA22193 for questions-outgoing; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 04:25:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from blues.physik.rwth-aachen.de (blues.physik.rwth-aachen.de [137.226.31.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id EAA22188 for ; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 04:25:45 -0700 (PDT) Received: from panke.panke.de (anonymous213.ppp.cs.tu-berlin.de [130.149.17.213]) by blues.physik.rwth-aachen.de (8.8.6/8.6.9) with ESMTP id NAA10066; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 13:25:52 +0200 (MEST) Received: (from wosch@localhost) by panke.panke.de (8.8.5/8.6.12) id NAA00775; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 13:03:22 +0200 (MET DST) To: justin@apple.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Man pages References: <33F2FD96.4872@apple.com> From: Wolfram Schneider Date: 15 Aug 1997 13:03:18 +0200 In-Reply-To: "Justin C.

I bought a SCSI TR-4 tape drive (at triple the price) to replace a very nice ISA TR-3 unit (not supported because only SCSI tapes are supported[1]). Works well except for one peculiarity. The command: dump 0uf .... fails when the tape reaches the end of its first pass. That is, the tape is prepared to turn around and continue writing on the next track, but dump calls out for me to insert the next tape. However, by adding the 'a' option: dump 0auf .... everything's fine. Well, OK, but why should dump be interested in the individual tracks of a tape? The problem arises with another system running 2.1.0-R. I want to backup over the ethernet onto the 2.2.2 system. However, Its dump doesn't have an 'a' option, and sure enough, can't dump more than one pass' worth before asking for a new tape. Of course, I tried copying the dump from 2.2.2, but it won't compile (forgot why). Perhaps I don't understand the uses of discrete tracks on a tape. Maybe dump can get to something far down the dump file by just stepping the head a bit [2]. Thanks a heap (mebbe a stack?) to all who respond to questions like mine! I've learned a lot this way :-) Chuck Bacon - crtb@capecod.net or crtb@helix.nih.gov [1] I'll really feel silly if someone points out that tapes on the ISA bus, with and without accelerator cards, are supported. [2] I'd REALLY like to know how to take advantage of this, because I've listened and waited for a file I knew was way down the tape.

I have an Adaptec 1535- not bad, but I can't use it to boot the drive. I'm having difficulty finding a reasonable priced (<150 would be REALLY nice. ;-) ) ISA SCSI card with a BIOS. The 1542 is a bit pricy, considering that it would go in an older ISA (dx2-66) system. I'd just as soon buy a cheap Pentium motherboard and a PCI SCSI card. My hardware requirements aren't terribly taxing...a couple of SCSI-II devices...I don't need ULTRA SCSI. The Tekram 390 card has an appealing price. Does it work well under FBSD 2.2.2?

I never had a corrupt filesystem in 2 years of using FreeBSD (I did while using Linux b.t.w.). If I have, I can restore my system in an hour. It makes no sense to have less performance, just to lessen the chance for a filesystem corruption that might happen once in a year, and that can be restored in little time if you need to.

Is this a BUG or is Wow, that's very much. I don't know how that goes with majordomo, because I use 'listserv' (not the usual one, just another one ;-), my opion is that majordomo is slow (written in perl)), but here I make an sendmail-alias which points to the list-members... works ok here. e.g.: example: /usr/mail/maillists/example and in the example files stands: me@localhost me@anotherhost and I think majordomo uses that notation to. advantage is that there's just one message in the queue, but maybe thats the same as it is with majordomo, but never used it. If you want to add something to the message, e.g. a 'Reply-to', you can write a simple programm... I wrote something like that in C. My listserv just adds an adress when subscribing to the /usr/mail/maillists/example so that works really nice, and fast.

Is this a BUG or is just to queue the messages? does not include delivery? hhmmm......not good ;) sounds like you are creating a copy of the message for each and every receiptent. what big is this monthly message? try using bulk_mailer and majordomo together. you will queue one message for every X receiptents.

(Western Digital 4.3 gig Ultra Wide ScSi drive) 2 gig for each os. I used system commander as my boot manager and everything went fine. Then I installed FreeBSD on a quantum atlas 2.1 gig Ultra Wide SCSI drive with no problem. But when I connect the FreeBSD drive to the bus with the NT and 95 drive, system commander picks up all three of them and will boot fine into NT and 95 but hangs up on FreeBSD twoards the end of the startup with an error that says CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM! FAILED AUTOMATIC FILE SYSTEM CHECK. and some other stuff comes up. It will eventually let me log in but with multilple error messages of different sorts and when it finally lets me on only a very limited number of commands will function. The odd thing is that if i connect ONLY the FreeBSD drive to the computer everything works fine with it. I thought that maybe it was trying to read my other hard drive as well and was running into a problem with the different file systems ?? If you have any ideas on what could be wrong or any suggestions please let me know. Or if anyone has it running with system commander please let me know in what order you put the os's on. thanks alot! p.s.

If I put the cheap hard drive on "Primary Salve", the performance of the UltraDMA will suffer. The interface needs to run in a common mode (PIO-4 since Samsung is not U-DMA capable), so Ultra DMA transfers would be disabled. So, I have the Quantum as Primary Master and the Samsung as Secondary Master. The kernel appropriately finds the drives as wd0 and wd2, but panics when it can't mount root on wd0 (as it should). Fresh install w/ kernel.GENERIC. If I try to: Boot: wd(2,a)/kernel.GENERIC, it responds: Error: D: 0x82 C:0 H:0 S:0, and I need to reboot. I have also tried wd(1,a)/kernel, which surprisingly boots the kernel(???), but then can't mount root. Any Suggestions? Kevin PS- Where are the docs for the "Boot:" options?

Those writes are done that way so that the disk-cache doesn't get backlogged with lots of dirty pages (buffers.) I have been pondering a really async option, but that would not be the default async. Our async option is really an async metadata option.

Today, I got two new machines, a P150 and a P2 266. I can't install FreeBSD on either machine with the exact same symptoms. The motherboards are different, naturally, so I can't pin it on a bad MB at this point. I downloaded boot.flp from three distributions and made three bootdisks on three separate dos machines. 9 disks total. FreeBSD 2.2.2-release, 2.1.7.1, and 3.0-snapshot.

I just received my FreeBSD disk in the mail today and we are about to install it. But before we do we are looking for an opinion or suggestions. We started the install, perused the "Complete BSD Handbook" and read a lot of the help files on the read me text. My system configuration consists of an Intel pentium pro 200, 32 megs of ram, number nine 128 bit video card, 3.5 inch floppy drive three eide hard drives-- a 2 gig and two 4 gigs. teac cd-rom and an exabyte tape drive. The following OSes are installed NT 4.0, NT 4.0 Server, Windows 95. my physical drives are partitioned as C: my original 2 gig hard drive D: a 2 gig partition that is primary on the first added hard drive E: a 2 gig partition that is secondary on the first added hard drive F: a 2 gig partition that is primary on the second added hard drive G: a 2 gig partition that is secondary on the second added hard drive H: cd-rom drive We want to install FreeBSD on "D" drive. Is there anything we should be worrying about with the "E" Partition?. Also if we partition "D" into anything, "E" through "H" designations will suffer....that will present a number of problems. "D" is completely empty. G drive however only has 100 megs or so of programs on it. We could dump that stuff to "D" and make the "G" drive empty. Or create another partition on the third drive call it H: and bump up the cd-rom drive..... Or create the partition and make the designation a letter after H, and not worry about anything but it just looks nasty having the cd-rom drive in the middle of the hard drive letters.... Any suggestions?? We want to do this correctly and would rather not have cheesy short-cuts that might come back and bite us later. Other than that, we would like to become a mirror site for the download stuff and any text info. We might have enough space now to put some of that stuff up now. And we would like to help you guys out and become partners as we get bigger. We are currently in the middle of a business plan that some investors are looking at for becoming an ISP and multimedia content/website creation/host. We went to the Beyond HOPE convention last weekend and have decided on FreeBSD. The question of the day is, what is the best equipment to run it on? What would be your dream system to run it on.? As this is a business plan we want to able price out the absolutely best equipment for this...... Thanx for help and time in this matter..........have a great weekend! -cliff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLIFFSWORLD Homepage----------------------< Quake-Clan "R.I.P."

Once you get back up, mount the CD and use 'tar xzf /cdrom/XF8632/X32xxxx.tgz' to extract them.

Depends on the circumstances. I use FreeBSD in both environments. I've seen Linux in production environments (defined as: when the box goes down, you have many [several hundred] $25-$35 per people idled) and, so far, Linux doesn't cut the mustard -- I wouldn't put my income on the line with Linux. I am aware of the _single user_ speed advantages Linux _appears_ to have. What I've found is simply this -- put any Linux distribution under serious load and it bogs down. Some have had worse problems, but this is the one I've seen most often. >(which distrib? rh/slack/debian?) Slackware and Red Hat. I have a coworker that uses Red Hat (he's enamored with the SYSVisms) who hasn't had a stable system for months (through 4.0-4.1-4.2). I've used Slackware -- the most common varient I've seen tried in production settings. Which is why I use FreeBSD ;) [More graceless attemts to withdraw deleted] >Hmm...

I think you'll see that -- even with sync filesystems -- the _total_ time will show you the advantages. I've not tried it myself so you may enlighten us all. [my original suggestion] >>>> Hmm...

You may _believe_ in async filesystems. I see the advantages in the right environment, but I see more advantage in minimizing downtime and avoiding -- however possible -- the need to restore from backup and trusting that nothing written since last nights backup was important. If you believe Linux is better, you should use it and stop busting our chops over your percieved short comings of FreeBSD. If, on the other hand, you're not sure -- recognize the fundamental differences in perspective between the two and test FreeBSD under the conditions a _production_ OS is designed to accomodate. After that, tell us on which you would be willing to bet your job and pager. If you didn't understand what I've said -- you should use Linux. -- Jay From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 15 19:03:49 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id TAA01830 for questions-outgoing; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 19:03:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from emout06.mail.aol.com (emout06.mx.aol.com [198.81.11.97]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id TAA01819 for ; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 19:03:46 -0700 (PDT) From: Henryt3@aol.com Received: (from root@localhost) by emout06.mail.aol.com (8.7.6/8.7.3/AOL-2.0.0) id WAA19725 for questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 15 Aug 1997 22:03:14 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 15 Aug 1997 22:03:14 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <970815220313_1084623680@emout06.mail.aol.com> To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: openGL Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I am now using freebsd version 2.2.1.

When you installed FreeBSD did it automatically find the card or did you have to change the configuration in the visual kernel thingy to match the configuration of the card (irq i/o etc...)? You may need to rebuild your kernel or change the settings on the card to match the current settings expected by the GENERIC kernel. When you boot your machine, wait until it finishes starting and then hit the scroll-lock key and then page up and see if it mentions the card at all. Andrew Perry On Fri, 15 Aug 1997, Susan R.

Endsley" Subject: Lost slices (Win95) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have a 1.6 gig WD harddisk that has (had) Win3.1 and BSD 2.2.1-R. They were both about 800 megs. Without thinking, I upgraded the Win 3.1 to Win95. I also use BootManager from OS/2. When I re-booted for FBSD, it booted ok, then dropped me to a shell after doing the probes. It said to run FSCK manually. I found that I had lost all my different slices (usr/var/swap). I looked at the Fixit disk, but not knowing that much about commands, didn't know what to do. I did try the mount command, but nothing happened. Since then, I have read about installing 95 BEFORE installing FBSD. Can I get FBSD running again, or have I lost everything?? The worst is that I lose all my "helps" from this list. I have the 2.2.1-R CD and have most of it on my C drive (Win95), so I could re-install it ok, but hate losing all those files.

So I attempted to control X with startx and(all suggested): -bpp16 -bpp 16 16 --bpp16 -bpp32 --bpp32 32 -bpp 32 (yes XF86Config shows all three as possible depths with there respective window sizes) When I run 'xwininfo' the color depth is always 8 (no matter what window I click on), the images are just as grainy and the colors start going crazy very quickly (which would seem to me -a total X newbie - to indicate low color depth ie. 8 ). Can anyone give me a clear idea of what I need to do to increase the color depth. I'm using a Cirrus 5434 video chip with 1 meg of ram. Please no ' flib the dwerble with a pinny and then drib the wilden' answers - I really don't have a clue on X.

I run Linux (debian 1.3.1 and current) and FreeBSD (current) on the same machine. They both have a partition on the same disk. Since I'm kind of a benchmark fanatic I've been testing and comparing them quite a lot. I like Linux for it's nice appls (netscape plugins, dosemu etc), but for sure FreeBSD's performance beats Linux on almost all points. I test both on my machine which is a P90 with 48MB and SCSI disks (NCR815 controller). Of course, performance for Linux and FreeBSD may differ when using different types of hardware (e.g. IDE iso SCSI, or different types of IDE) or different versions. Maybe in your special case indeed Linux is faster in the dd test, but usually it is not. Did you: - recompile both kernels with same level of gcc and optimization options? - test both using the same disk, and also using a partition that is about on the same spot of the disk (the start of a disk can be quite a bit faster as the end of it). - Use options for dd to make sure that the same blocksizes were used? - etc. etc. Generally: dd on a disk is faster in FreeBSD. Also is NFS (read and write), and things like doing an 'ls directory' on a directory that contains lots (thousands) of files. Paging and multitasking behaviour, and filesystem cache are also much nicer and faster on FreeBSD. When I switch to Linux I'm always annoyed by its (relative) slowness and esp. bad multitasking (paging and fs. caching ) behaviour: one process like a tape read can eat up all of the filesystem cache and make the system real slow. -- /\_/\ ( o.o ) Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), | Trust me, I know ) ^ ( plm@xs4all.nl | the Netherlands | what I'm doing.

I'm going to make an assumption about what you're doing: You can't see your CD-ROM from FreeBSD, so you: - boot under DOS - copy the relevant packages tarballs to your DOS hard-drive - reboot under FreeBSD - mount your DOS partition (mount -r -t msdos /dev/wd /mnt) , and - copy/install the packages from the DOS partition. I used to do just that when FreeBSD couldn't recognize my CD-ROM. If that's correct, make sure you copy the packages files from the "All" subdirectory on the CD-ROM. Every other subdirectory contains a symbolic link to the corresponding file in the "All" directory--but symbolic links don't mean anything to DOS, so they're copied as zero-length files. > Also, is there a decent X windows manager available; one that at least > gives scroll bars? Scroll bars are typically a function of the application (e.g., xterm) not the window manager. To get scroll bars in an xterm, use the `-sb' and `-sl' command-line options (or their corresponding X resources). `man xterm' for more information. ----- Brian Clapper, bmc@WillsCreek.COM, http://WWW.WillsCreek.COM/ Cloning is the sincerest form of flattery.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi I have a Philips PCA21CR atapi-cd-player. Once detected it works well. But the detection at boot-time costs a little. As recommended before by the freebsd-list I removed other types of cd-players in my setup, but it still a little slow, look: wdc0: unit 1 (wd1): wd1: 408MB (836070 sectors), 899 cyls, 15 heads, 62 S/T, 512 B/S wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): , removable, iordy wcd0: 344Kb/sec, 128Kb cache, audio play, 256 volume levels, ejectable tray wcd0: 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked, lock protected So I have to wait twice for a "pretty long time" (when speaking of booting). The player works, so there's nothing wrong with that, but why that stupid delay? I just have the usual fd- and wdc-'controllers' with the 'disks' for it, and the options 'ATAPI, ATAPI_STATIC' and device wcd0... Do I have to disable the disks for my secondary controller on which my cd-player is on...? Strage, is this because the ATAPI-support is still beta?

Well, turns out I found the problem and resolved it. I e-mail this list in case someone else runs into the problem and can use the help. Turns out both machines had identical monochrome cards that needed to be jumpered differently for FreeBSD to work. These cards cost about $15 each and were made in Taiwan (you get the picture :-) They have a feature that I've never seen before called "color emulation" which was enabled. Also, I disabled the parallel port on the card. I'm not sure which of the two jumper changes I made fixed the problem - I was just happy to see the systems running FreeBSD :-) Also a note... I originally had Diamond SCSI cards in the machines, but FreeBSD only recognized them with the 3.0-SNAP version of the boot disk. The diamond cards have the symbios (NCR) chipset. I replaced the diamond cards with more generic symbios cards that looked almost identical from a brief visual inspection, and those work. This is a small error in the data sheet for supported hardware for FreeBSD 2.2.2 and under... To those who wrote to help me out, thanks!

The first #define after all the #includes (around line 111) is #define TIMEOUT 10000 Every time the kernel function wdwait() is called, it waits for TIMEOUT ms for a response from an IDE device. I added a little debugging, and with my kernel, wdwait() times out 3 times during probing. That would be around 30 seconds. Try decreasing the TIMEOUT define and see if that helps. I have TIMEOUT set at 2000, and everything still works, but the probing now takes just 6 seconds. Your mileage may vary, depending on how old your IDE devices are, and how long they take to respond during the probe. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 16 11:48:07 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id LAA05065 for questions-outgoing; Sat, 16 Aug 1997 11:48:07 -0700 (PDT) Received: from rvc1.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de (rvc1.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de [141.31.112.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA05046 for ; Sat, 16 Aug 1997 11:48:03 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from helbig@localhost) by rvc1.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de (8.8.7/8.8.5) id UAA01640; Sat, 16 Aug 1997 20:47:46 +0200 (MET DST) From: Wolfgang Helbig Message-Id: <199708161847.UAA01640@rvc1.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de> Subject: Re: Slow CD-Player detection?

It is controlled by a Promise UTLRA33 Ultra ATA controller. However, FreeBSD is reporting the drive's size incorrectly. At first, I thought I had just tried to install without LBA on (I also have a FAT32 primary partition on this drive for Win95). But I checked, and it is on. So then I attempted to set what the disk geometry was, since it seemed that was all that is needed. I tried two geometries: the "real" on with the large number of cylinders, and the LBA modified one with remapped cylinders and heads. Both times it had no effect aside from the label at the top of the fdisk screen telling me about the disk. I couldn't create anything new. Also, sometimes when I tried, it created this really huge partition, but the offsets didn't match up, and the installation program reports a fatal error and send me to a reboot. Does this mean I'm screwed and I'll have to buy a small hard drive just for this OS? All I need is a 500M-1gig FreeBSD partition.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I can't boot under my FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE system since I tried to install Debian GNU/Linux 1.3.1... Here are the details. I have a 1912M IDE hard disk (primary IDE controller, master disk). I also have an IDE CD-ROM as a slave on the same controller. This disk was initially partitioned in 4 equal parts of 478M each: - bootable DOS 5.0 (FAT 16) partition that now contains Windows 95 and is the C: drive; - FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE; - FAT 16 (D:); - FAT 16 (E:). A boot time, a driver installs itself in order to allow this large disk to be used with an older BIOS. It was necessary with the previous motherboard, but the current motherboard is very recent and does not need it. I left the driver there anyway to avoid trouble. I used the Debian 1.3.1 binary CD-ROM to install Linux on the 3rd partition (drive D: up to then). The installation went well, except for the installation of packages, which apparently corrupted the whole Linux system and beyond... Later, I tried to boot FreeBSD, but the kernel loader could not find the kernel... The "Boot:" prompt appears and after the normal delay, instead of finding the kernel and booting it, the screen said: dosdev= 80, biosdrive = 0, unit = 0, maj = 0 Can't find /kernel Saying "?" does not produce anything: it looks like the loader can't read the file system. I tried "wd(0,a)/kernel" and "wd(0,b)/kernel", but the loader said it could not find that either. I also tried those two names with a 1 instead of the 0, but then I got an infinite repetition of this line: Error: D:0x81 C:0 H:0 S:0 I suppose that wd(1,?) refers to the CD-ROM or to a drive I don't have, so this failure is expected. Is there a possibility of recovering my FreeBSD system? (I have backups to the important data, so this is not dramatic.) Is this something that happens often when installing Linux? -- Pierre Sarrazin [Montreal] From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 16 21:21:16 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id VAA02398 for questions-outgoing; Sat, 16 Aug 1997 21:21:16 -0700 (PDT) Received: from nico.telstra.net (nico.telstra.net [139.130.204.16]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id VAA02393 for ; Sat, 16 Aug 1997 21:21:12 -0700 (PDT) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (gregl1.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.136.133]) by nico.telstra.net (8.6.10/8.6.10) with ESMTP id OAA26494; Sun, 17 Aug 1997 14:20:32 +1000 Received: (grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.7/8.6.12) id NAA05400; Sun, 17 Aug 1997 13:50:31 +0930 (CST) Message-ID: <19970817135030.33381@lemis.com> Date: Sun, 17 Aug 1997 13:50:30 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: Joe Beiter Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Arrow Keys don't work for tcsh References: <199708161304.JAA00478@xioa.cosmic.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.81e In-Reply-To: <199708161304.JAA00478@xioa.cosmic.org>; from Joe Beiter on Sat, Aug 16, 1997 at 09:04:24AM -0400 Organisation: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8250 Fax: +61-8-8388-8250 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Sat, Aug 16, 1997 at 09:04:24AM -0400, Joe Beiter wrote: > > My arrow keys don't work with tcsh under X11 Am I correct in assuming you mean xterm? > but they do for regular ascii.

You also need a file called .fvwmrc. There should be a sample file somewhere. I've found, however, that the old version of fvwm is rather sensitive to the contents, and it may dump core if you put things in it doesn't like. You might prefer to use fvwm2 instead. Note that this version's config file is .fvwm2rc.

This would just make things worse. This looks like an X configuration problem. Have you done anything with the files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults? If not, then take a look at your .xinitrc file. Does it contain a line like this? xrdb -load .Xdefaults If so, look at the file .Xdefaults (or whatever). It probably contains a default which causes this to happen. If you can't figure it out, send me the file and I'll see what I can do. Don't copy the list, though: these files can be long.

If you're looking for an executable, 'which' should tell you where it is. Otherwise, use 'locate'. By default, the locate database is rebuilt every week with the cron job /etc/weekly, so if you turn your machine off at night it won't get updated. Look in /etc/weekly to see how to rebuild it manually.
