I have found a very useful book in "The Complete Reference : FreeBSD" by Roderick W. Smith (ISBN 0-07-222409-6). I am tempted to get one of the others listed by you fine people, such as the Annelise Anderson book; however, as a work colleague once told me, the best way to learn is to just get stuck into it, make mistakes and then find the solutions.

It is one way to learn. It's not always the best way, but different people have different "best ways" :-) From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Sun May 30 10:41:42 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 327BA16A4CE for ; Sun, 30 May 2004 10:41:42 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hotmail.com (sea1-dav19.sea1.hotmail.com [207.68.162.123]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1116043D2D for ; Sun, 30 May 2004 10:41:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wiky1100@hotmail.com) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Sun, 30 May 2004 10:41:41 -0700 Received: from 203.170.72.235 by sea1-dav19.sea1.hotmail.com with DAV; Sun, 30 May 2004 17:41:41 +0000 X-Originating-IP: [203.170.72.235] X-Originating-Email: [wiky1100@hotmail.com] X-Sender: wiky1100@hotmail.com From: "s.m.waqas" To: Date: Sun, 30 May 2004 10:46:19 +0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2919.6700 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6700 Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 30 May 2004 17:41:41.0497 (UTC) FILETIME=[5DF58E90:01C4466D] X-Mailman-Approved-At: Mon, 31 May 2004 05:40:30 -0700 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.1 Subject: I use....

If you don't want to lose your Win 2000 then you need to find a way to repartition the hard drive so that you don't lose the data. Something like Partition Magic can do that for you, but make sure you back up any data you don't won't to lose just incase.

All support/technical questions should be sent to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org. My reply here will also be limited to items covered in the official documentation. To answer your question in a very general way, yes. However... You'll need to decide which release suits your needs best: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/current-stable.html You should check the supported hardware list for that release: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.2.1R/hardware.html http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.10R/hardware.html While your at it, read the handbook on installing to save a few headaches: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html Good luck and feel free to write -questions if you have any problems.

Just in case there were some other people out there who are trying to contact me, regarding the book recommendations topic, I have changed my Internet connection and have had to change my email address. I hope that this email shall contain it. Thanks to all regarding that particular topic who wrote to me. In answer to one person's query, yes, my friend does get paid by the hour, as he is the technical manager at the store I work for (I am a "mere" salesman) - oh, and he thinks that Microsoft is the be all and end all ....

But I figured I was a newbie so I would give it a shot. Please excuse the lengthy e-mail. I am creating my first kernel (one just to learn and two to see how much faster it is after I remove any unnecessary devices) I got lots of errors. But I fixed them. Then after several fixes in my kernel configuration file I was able to run make buildkernel KERNCONF=APOLLO After watching it run through for a few mins and feeling really cool it errored again. However I have no idea what to do now. When it errored due to the config file it gave me a line number and enough info to realize I had commented out isa support and apparently still needed it somewhere (I am not sure why I have no ISA devices. USB mouse/keyboard/, no Parallel/Serial or any devices that I can think would use isa). So here are the last several lines of the error followed by my config file if someone needs it. I am running 4.10 that was a clean install last weekend. Also if someone sees any tweaks I should make to my config I am all ears. #################### Kernel Error ###################### sh /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh APOLLO cc -c -O -pipe -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wcast-qual -fformat-extensions -ansi -nostdinc -I- -I. -I/usr/src/sys -I/usr/src/sys/../include -I/usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/acpica -I/usr/src/sys/contrib/ipfilter -D_KERNEL -include opt_global.h -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 vers.c linking kernel umass.o: In function `umass_cam_attach_sim': umass.o(.text+0x1637): undefined reference to `cam_simq_alloc' umass.o(.text+0x165d): undefined reference to `cam_sim_alloc' umass.o(.text+0x1676): undefined reference to `xpt_bus_register' umass.o(.text+0x1686): undefined reference to `cam_simq_free' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_rescan_callback': umass.o(.text+0x169f): undefined reference to `xpt_free_path' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_rescan': umass.o(.text+0x16ef): undefined reference to `xpt_periph' umass.o(.text+0x16f8): undefined reference to `xpt_create_path' umass.o(.text+0x170b): undefined reference to `xpt_setup_ccb' umass.o(.text+0x1726): undefined reference to `xpt_action' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_detach_sim': umass.o(.text+0x17df): undefined reference to `xpt_bus_deregister' umass.o(.text+0x17fd): undefined reference to `cam_sim_free' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_detach': umass.o(.text+0x183e): undefined reference to `xpt_create_path' umass.o(.text+0x185f): undefined reference to `xpt_async' umass.o(.text+0x1867): undefined reference to `xpt_free_path' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_action': umass.o(.text+0x1beb): undefined reference to `xpt_done' umass.o(.text+0x1bfd): undefined reference to `xpt_done' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_cb': umass.o(.text+0x1d19): undefined reference to `xpt_done' umass.o: In function `umass_cam_sense_cb': umass.o(.text+0x1e20): undefined reference to `xpt_done' umass.o(.text+0x1e31): undefined reference to `xpt_done' umass.o(.text+0x1e4b): more undefined references to `xpt_done' follow *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/APOLLO. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. apollo# ################################################################# # APOLLO -- Custom kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386 # # # # Joshua Lewis - 6/01/2004 My first Custom Kernel # ################################################################# machine i386 cpu I686_CPU ident APOLLO maxusers 0 #makeoptions DEBUG=-g #Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols options MATH_EMULATE #Support for x87 emulation options INET #InterNETworking #options INET6 #IPv6 communications protocols options FFS #Berkeley Fast Filesystem options FFS_ROOT #FFS usable as root device [keep this!] options SOFTUPDATES #Enable FFS soft updates support options UFS_DIRHASH #Improve performance on big directories options MFS #Memory Filesystem options MD_ROOT #MD is a potential root device options NFS #Network Filesystem options NFS_ROOT #NFS usable as root device, NFS required options MSDOSFS #MSDOS Filesystem options CD9660 #ISO 9660 Filesystem options CD9660_ROOT #CD-ROM usable as root, CD9660 required options PROCFS #Process filesystem options COMPAT_43 #Compatible with BSD 4.3 [KEEP THIS!] options SCSI_DELAY=15000 #Delay (in ms) before probing SCSI options UCONSOLE #Allow users to grab the console options USERCONFIG #boot -c editor options VISUAL_USERCONFIG #visual boot -c editor options KTRACE #ktrace(1) support options SYSVSHM #SYSV-style shared memory options SYSVMSG #SYSV-style message queues options SYSVSEM #SYSV-style semaphores options P1003_1B #Posix P1003_1B real-time extensions options _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options ICMP_BANDLIM #Rate limit bad replies options KBD_INSTALL_CDEV # install a CDEV entry in /dev options AHC_REG_PRETTY_PRINT # Print register bitfields in debug # output.

I know you said Postfix, but you might wanna look at what the qmail-ldap gang is doing, it's a nice system, but also has a steep learning curve. http://www.nrg4u.com/ That being said, there's some discussion of integrating Postfix with LDAP starting on page 148 of Gerald Carter's _LDAP System Administration_, on O'Reilly. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/ldapsa/ Conveniently, this chapter is available as a sample at: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/ldapsa/chapter/ch07.pdf From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Jun 2 20:10:02 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6801C16A4CE for ; Wed, 2 Jun 2004 20:10:02 -0700 (PDT) Received: from dieflux.afraid.org (c-67-170-54-161.client.comcast.net [67.170.54.161]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2740543D48 for ; Wed, 2 Jun 2004 20:10:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ghast@dieflux.afraid.org) Received: by dieflux.afraid.org (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 21DB75925B; Wed, 2 Jun 2004 20:13:49 +0000 (UTC) Date: Wed, 2 Jun 2004 20:13:46 +0000 From: Jarrod Wageman To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20040602201346.GA8425@dieflux.afraid.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6i Subject: portupgrade problems X-BeenThere: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Gathering place for new users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 03 Jun 2004 03:10:02 -0000 I have recently decided to move over to freeBSD.

If that's the case, then what is RELENG_4_10? The page says that RELENG_4_10 is 'the release branch for FreeBSD-4.10, used only for security advisories and other critical fixes.' Does this mean there are two lines of development here?

True. > If that's the case, then what is RELENG_4_10? The page says that > RELENG_4_10 is 'the release branch for FreeBSD-4.10, used only for > security advisories and other critical fixes.' Does this mean there > are two lines of development here? Well, yes and no. It means that people who want to stick to the 4.10-RELEASE version (marked, as you correctly wrote, by the RELENG_4_10_0_RELEASE tag) but still want to grab the latest security fixes from CVSup without having to install RELENG_4 (because, for instance, it might be already close to a newer release, like 4.12-RELEASE)... these people can use the RELENG_4_10 tag. The RELENG_4_10 tag gets you a different "branch" of the source tree, one that is updated only when there is a very good reason to do so. So then, yes... there *are* two lines of development. The difference between them is that the RELENG_4 branch receives only conservative updates to the system but RELENG_4_10 is even more conservative -- it only getscritical security fixes. Tested features of the kernel and userland, including new tools, new drivers, or anything else that is deemed stable enough for -STABLE STABLE (RELENG_4 is what we call "FreeBSD-STABLE" these days) can find their way into the RELENG_4 branch. Not all of them are eligible for inclusion into a "security branch" like RELENG_4_10. So, development does not, in fact, continue in RELENG_4_10. - Giorgos From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Jun 3 02:49:44 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 312B116A4CE for ; Thu, 3 Jun 2004 02:49:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from cloudburst.umist.ac.uk (cloudburst.umist.ac.uk [130.88.119.66]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A7B3D43D41 for ; Thu, 3 Jun 2004 02:49:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from a.shterenlikht@umist.ac.uk) Received: from pw7.mt.umist.ac.uk ([130.88.125.204]) by cloudburst.umist.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 4.34) id 1BVor0-0006l5-R6 for freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org; Thu, 03 Jun 2004 10:49:42 +0100 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" From: To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 3 Jun 2004 10:51:34 +0000 User-Agent: KMail/1.4.1 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message-Id: <200406031051.34348.a.shterenlikht@umist.ac.uk> Subject: pcmcia modem X-BeenThere: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Gathering place for new users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 03 Jun 2004 09:49:44 -0000 Hi I recently installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 on Compaq Armada 1700.
