Good God, when did the brits start misspelling technique in that way?  I

Hallo!
I have the following question:

I have one machine configugred with ppp -auto -nat, so that it establishes
a connection to the Internet whenever one of my other machines wants to
send packets to the Internet. The other machines are, of course, set up so
that their default route points to the ppp-machine.

So far, so good. Now, on the other machines I have sendmail running
(sendmail -bd), which also works fine BUT whenever I turn on one of these
machines, sendmail wants to look something up using the nameserver, and so
the boot-process hangs until the ppp-machine has established a connection 
to the Internet.

This bothers me a little. I wonder if there's a way to prevent sendmail
from doing that, because I don't see a need for a ppp-connection being
established every time I start one of my computers, only for allowing
sendmail to do this one nslookup operation (I don't even know WHAT
sendmail looks up...)

So... does anybody have an idea what I can do so that sendmail starts
normally but does *not* establish / need a connection to the
Internet? While this behavior is not really a problem for me, I'm just
curious if I can do something against it...

Greetings,
Nils

Dont you need to do  'make installworld' before you compile a new kernel
since  you want the new kernel to be compiled with the latest system
files.

Hi. I'm trying to upgrade my system from 3.4-stable to 4.x-stable, and am having problems getting a 4.x kernel operating.

The handbook tells me to;

  If you have just upgraded to a newer version of 4.X or higher (ie from 3.X to 4-STABLE, or even from 4-STABLE to a later version of 4-STABLE), make sure you have built the world, and then run the following commands:

    # cd /usr/src
    # make buildkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL
    # make installkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL

Unfortunately I get this error message;

	make: don't know how to make buildkernel. Stop

Can anyone tell me why?

I've followed the handbook, ofcourse, and that lead me to downloaded the sources via cvsup, using the following cvsup file;

--BEGIN contents /etc/cvsupfile
*default  host=cvsup.nl.FreeBSD.org
*default  basftpmaile=/usr
*default  prefix=/usr
*default  release=cvs
*default  tag=FreeBSD-STABLE
*default  delete use-rel-suffix

src-all
*default tag=.
ports-all
doc-all
--END contents /etc/cvsupfile

this resulted in the following file: 

-rwxr-----  1 root  wheel  211094016 Feb 18  2000 /usr/src.tar

I then proceeded with 
/usr/src # rm -Rf *
/usr # tar xf src.tar

which created me a new /usr/src tree.

/usr/src # make world; fastboot
went OK aswell.

The output of make world was saved (as advised in handbook), and is available at request due to largeness (5M+ text :)

I think I checked all that. Doublechecked.......

But I cant find anything. Root can, uzs106 cannot, without wainting for
some timeout, do http://localhost.

Hi Manfred,

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, I tried to access the security
manager in the tasks menu, and it completely froze XFree86 3.3.6. Not
really froze it, but I was unable to switch windows as the pointer
remained over the netscape menu item. I was forced to do a
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE to kill X and then restarting the X-server.

Perhaps just a warning to anyone trying this tip should be careful to
save all the data in other X-apps before attempting this tip. YMMV.  ;-)

As for me, I'll just leave netscape 6 as it is...  ;-)

Regards,

Wee Guan.

is the right way, comes straight from the authoritative document, and
he even provides a pointer to it!

You may note that the problem Kevin addresses here is a userland
and kernel being out of synch. What do you suppose might happen
if you did your install=world= and booted on the =old= kernel? Sure,
you're only rebooting to build a new kernel, but until you fix things,
your userland and kernel would be out of synch! And that could be
disastrous, depending on =how= out of synch.

The method Kevin describes avoids this problem (you can find some clues
on how in src/Makefile.inc1, which is interesting reading in general).
Consider, for starters, that the "latest system files" =are= on your
computer after a buildworld, but only the world-builders (you and 
make) know where they are. Unless you have a really unusual path.

In sum, either: understand how "make world" (a lovely bit of
engineering) really works, or follow the instructions to the
letter. (Maybe we could abbreviate that as "RTFs/U" -- "Read the
'Friendly' src/UPDATING"!) -- And that goes for a lot more than
"make world"...

Hi there!
FreeBSD 4.0
twm installed, no problem with startx but with xdm.
I have added this to /etc/ttys
ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm on secure
and created   .xsession at  /usr/home/nkr/   with executing permission
for nkr
writting on   .xsession
/usr/X11R6/bin/twm
I got this error at .xdm-errors
-------------------------------------------------------------
xlib:connection to ":0.0" refused by server^M
xlib:Client is not authorized to connect to server^M
Error: Can't open display:  :0
---------------------------------------------------------------
There is(line)
:0 local  /usr/X11R6/bin/x
at(file)
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xservers

When I write(line)
exec twm
at(file)
/usr/home/nkr/.xsession
I got this at
.xsession-errors
-----------------------------------------------------------------
xlib:connection to ":0.0" refused by server^M
xlib:client is not authorized to connect to server^M
twm: unable to open display ":0"
------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem is that when  I restart my computer I can write my login and
password on the X session but then, it doesn't go to twm display, it
asks me again the login and password, all I can do is ctrl+alt+f2 and
ctrl+alt+enter
:-(

Can someone help me please?
Thanks in advance

Where can I find info on the X keymaps?  Finding syscons was easy, but I
need to make some changes so the X keymap is the same.

thanks,

Try switching to ttyv1 with Alt F2 as the error messages shouldn't show =
up
there.  I've no idea what would be causing the "microuptime" problem =
though.

If you want to send the dmesg output to the list, then you won't need the=
 lpr
part of your line above, just 'dmesg > /root/dmesg.txt' (of course :-))

I'm having a hard time getting Xwindows to run. I went through
xf86config the same way I would under Linux (I'm posting this from
Slackware), but when I do startx I get what looks like a garbled Gnome
screen and my PC hangs up. Even CTRL-ALT-Backspace and CTRL-ALT-DEL
won't work. 

Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Larry

Hi!

   I recently found myself in "too many groups", as LIBC complains;
I found that somehow that if I present in more than in 16 groups ( what
is exactly that value of NGROUPS_MAX in sys/syslimits.h), I run into
problems. Well, first thing that popped out was to recompile LIBC, and maybe
I'll do that (later), but I'm just curious - how come that 16 is a limit?
Didn't anyone before run into this "implementation flaw"? Or, maybe, there
exists some better solution?

Sincerely,
	Dmitry

Hi,

Got a prob with one of my boxes.. it's dialing up to the internet using
usermode ppp.  The traffic stopped coming in.  When I ping on my freebsd
box (4.1) it says:

01:48:19 root@ocdi:~# ping 203.173.250.207

Local hosts I can ping fine.

On a LAN box, when I try to ping via that box:

01:50:51 data@jerya:/usr/home/data$ ping 203.173.250.207
PING 203.173.250.207 (203.173.250.207): 56 data bytes

Can anyone explain this wierd behaviour, and a way to prevent it happening

I have an Asus CUSL2 motherboard with Intel 815E. My install went fine with
no errors. On boot, I don't get any error messages however I see the
<Unknown Card> at irq 11. At this point, I am not quite sure whether this is
a freebsd issue or a bios/hardware issue. If I disable PnP in Bios,
my network card is detected and works fine but not my G400 card, however if
I enable PnP, neither my network card nor my G400 are
detected!

Please help if you can, thanks..

mike

Agreed. I have lived in England my entire life and the spelling is
"technique". Not that this has anything to do with FreeBSD anymore...

My kit:

SOYO 6BA+ Mainboard
PIII 450 (100MHz, 4.5x)
64 MB ECC
Seagate ST317221A

The disk is partitioned as so:

P1    4GB    FreeBSD
P2    3GB    NTFS (Windows 2000)
P3    1GB    FAT
P4    Extended Partition
L5    3GB    Linux ext2
L6    1GB    Linux ext2
L7    3GB    Linux ext2
L8    1GB    Linux ext2
L9    441M  Linux Swap

First of all, I have read the installation sections of the FreeBSD Handbook,
the FAQ and the Multi-OS article.

I understand that the root slice of FreeBSD must be below cylinder 1024, and
I'm pretty convinced mine is, but I cannot get FreeBSD to install. During
Installation the following happens:

FDISK Partition Editor reports:

Disk Geometry: 2096 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 33672240 sectors (16441MB)

Offset  Size(ST)   End          Name   PType   Desc       Subtype  Flags
0          63             62             -          6           unused    0
63        8193087   8193149   ad0s1  1           freebsd   165         =
other partitions....

When I try to create a root partition using the Disklabel editir I get the
following message:

"This region cannot be used for your root partition as the FreeBSD boot code
cannot deal witha root partition created in that location. Please choose
another location or amller siae for your root partition and try again."

Now, my FreeBSD partition (slice) is the first partition - deliberately - on
the disk. The partition is 4GB, a quarter(ish), of a 16.4GB disk, so it
should be contained in the first 2096/4 cylinders which is well below the
1024 cylinder limit.

What am I doing wrong?

Everything else works fine; Windows 2000 boots from the MBR and I boot Linux
from a floppy.

Hi folks!

I have trouble getting the installation kernel of FBSD 4.2-RELEASE
from the installation cd image to boot properly.

System is:

ASUS TX97 mainboard
 |- AMD K6 200 MHz
 |- 64 MB RAM
 |- PCI Bus
 |   |- Adaptec 2940U SCSI controller
 |   |    |  (automatic termination)
 |   |    |  (ultrascsi disabled)
 |   |    |- Quantum Fireball 3.2 SCSI drive
 |   |    |- Toshiba TM6201 CDROM
 |   |    |- Yamaha 4416 burner
 |   |    |- SyQuest SQ3270S (no media inserted)
 |   |    |  I know empty SQ drives report themselves as not ready,
 |   |    |  but since there is no scsi scan, I don't think that's
 |   |    |  the problem.
 |   |    |- SyQuest EZFlyer (external)
 |   |    |- Iomega ZIP      (external)
 |   |- Matrox Millennium II graphics
 |   |    |- Monitor
 |   |- SoundBlaster PCI 128 audio
 |   |    |- Speakers
 |   |- Onboard primary IDE
 |   |    |- IBM 10 GB Hard drive
 |   |- Onboard USB (nothing connected)
 |- ISA Bus (ok, it's bridged from pci, never mind)
 |   |- No-name NE2000 that works with FBSD 4.0 (irq 12, port 340)
 |   |- 3COM 3c509 ethernet
 |- Other peripherals
     |- Logitech cordless desktop mouse on COM1
     |- External graphics tablet on COM2

When I boot from the installation cdrom, I can go to config mode and
disable everything I haven't got. Then, the usual hardware probe
thingy starts, my motherboard gets found, pci gets found, ide gets
found, usb gets found, an unknown pci card gets found and then the
scsi controller is found, which is the last thing the machine
does because at that stage it freezes. It does no reset or search on
the SCSI bus, as nothing happens with the drive led's which usually
go
on flashing happily when the controller scans the bus.

What can I do? FreeBSD 4.0 booted just fine.

Thanks in advance

 Philipp                          mailto:reichmut@bonn.edu

Thank you, James, Rocky, and John...
No resolution yet, but you guys are definitely quick on the replies and
have solid answers to research.  Now I understand why so many FBSD'ers
swear by it: it's the responsiveness of these lists!  It's a very big
encouragement to someone new to the OS, and you have my deep gratitude
for your assistance.

OK, my suspicions agree with yours...and it ain't just FBSD.  FYI, I've
never gotten the SB Live! to work in Windows on this mobo, Win98 or
WinME, though no resources appear to conflict; it works perfectly in
Linux (multiple distros).  Until WinME, had an odd problem with the NDIS
driver: could not boot Win whenever any NIC was installed.  I've never
really been able to isolate the problems: CPU, mobo, bad RAM???  But
since everything worked in Linux, I figured it was differences between
the OS's.  But I've always wondered if it had something to do with the
mobo, something that Linux was more tolerant of than Win.  Installing
FBSD seems to have brought those issues to the fore.

I tried John's suggestion, going to ttyv1 (and ttyv2, 3, & 4), but as
soon as I put a command in, the "microuptime()" lines started bursting
forth as before.

I think now I'll reinstall without the APM option.  I recall where the
APM code for Linux used to be buggy, and it took developers awhile to
make it work across many mobo platforms.  It really does appear, in
reading Rocky's and James' replies, that it may have something to do
with earlier Athlon CPU's or certain Athlon motherboards (or just bad
system clocks?).

Again, thank you guys for all the solid help.  I'll post back once I've
reinstalled.

Tom Snell

I've had really good luck with generic RealTeks, 8139.  I've picked up
quite a few at http://store.yahoo.com/i-market/ for about $8 a pop, they
are 10/100baseT cards, works great in FreeBSD (the rl0 driver) & in
windoze.  I have nearly 10 spares sitting around because you never know
when you'll need them, and at $8 a piece, you can't go wrong.  You can also
pick up cheap hubs & switches & cables there.  Sure beats wasting 10x the
cost for a 3Com.

Dear Sirs.

It is one stream of struggle ...

I already set up a bunch of FreeBSD clients around here and they are
mainly equipted with German keyboards.

In kernel I configure the SC console on those machines which need
to be equipted with German keyboards and those which are equipted with
ASCII keyboards I prefer PCVT console driver.

Well, I will talk about the SC console driven machines. When switching to
console, I got my German keyboard, but in X11 in xterm I do not have
any German character I need! Why? I configured in XFree the right keyboard
but this won't work correct because I do not have "a, "o, "u and the other
characters. I have had these problems under XFree 4 also and especially in 
conjunction with FreeBSD.

TERM is set to xterm-color ... are there other environment variables which
are involved?

Thanks in advance,

Oliver

Hi all:

I'm trying to find out what's up with my remotely colocated box. I had it running fine for 4 days after RAM upgrade and all of a sudden it stopped responding. After 
reboot, which fixed the problem, I noticed /kernel: fxp0: device timeout in the syslog file repeated until the reboot. This has never happened before with this box. I 
had it virtually freeze 2 times while swapping (swap can't handle the load), so I added 512MB of RAM and now this.. Any ideas what can be wrong besides bad 
cable/NIC? Is there a way I can do something to see if it stops responding again without having to wait for it to do it on its own? remotely that is. Can attacks (flood, 
etc...) of some sort cause things like this to happen? or is this purely hardware issue? I read almost all the posts I could find regarding the same issue in the archives, 
but couldn't find what I was looking for. My plan is to have the ethernet cable changed and then the NIC. Now, what I'm afraid of is what if that doesn't fix the 
problem. Then again, maybe it will never happen again, but since it did once, I'm close to sure it will. Any help and or suggestions would be appreacited. Thank you!

Simon

Do you have any companies in Nottingham? would you take on a 17 year old to 
train in your firm to become a web page designer? i've wanted to do web 
designing for ages now and no where will help me get into it not even the 
colleges or career centres.  I'm currently living in Surrey and i'm at 
college studying Advanced in Information technology.  I feel i'd gain more 
understanding or web design if i were in a company working.

I hope you would consider taking me on.  I'm moving to Nottingham shortly and 
i'd like to go into employment.

I'd be grateful of you could get back to me

Yours faithfully



Anne Anderson

	Sadly enough, however sound and clear and precise any
language's rules may be, it's the use many people make of it
what definitely ruines the language. I would not say Spanish
is corrupted per se, but it's true that most people abuse it
largely.

	As such, I don't see a problem in technical English
words, they are mostly confined to the realm they belong to.
"Hamburguesa" and "carro" are proper Spanish words also;  I'm
not quite sure where "hamburguesa" comes from exactly (though
we do use it to name hamburgers and hamburgers only), but the
traditional Spanish "carro" is something different than English
"car" and is probably much older (only in American Spanish it
has taken that other meaning). Again, things like "abend(-)ear"
or "bootear" are not Spanish and I'm not prone to think that
Spanish is rotting because some people use them; I rather
worry because of the lenguage the media display, and people
using it because they think it's the real Spanish.

	I believe the doc at http://people.freebsd.org/~jkb/howto.html
is slightly outdated, bpf not enabled by default was the norm until
3.something, if I recall correctly.

I wish to collect caller ID info from a modem on cuaa0/ttyd0 into a
file.  The program to do this (which I hope to find or write in
PERL) needs to permit regular modem access by programs such as ppp,
Minicom, mgetty, etc., without interfering with them or itself losing the
ability to collect caller ID.  For example, if ppp or mgetty is running,
my program should see caller ID info as it comes in and still pass it on
to whatever else is running; if nothing else is running, my program should
get the caller ID info but allow programs to come along and use the
port.  The program would need to run at all times and occasionally verify
the modem's correct operation, which would involve the occasional
(transparent to other programs) transmission of an AT#CID=1 command to the
modem and the verification that the expected "OK" came back.

My problem:  I'm not sure if what I want is possible without modifying a
device driver.  If I use something like Minicom, cu, screen, etc., to
watch the port, other programs don't work correctly when they try to use
it.  I have not tried a tty snooper, but I assume these could not transmit
the AT#CID=1 now and then and might also end up collecting great
quantities of info when, say, the modem is being used by ppp.  I'm not
above modifying a device driver (I know C), but I'd like to know if
there's an easier way.  If I do need to modify a driver, I should like to
know which one, and I hope there would then be an easy way to keep up with
STABLE without manually repatching the changed file(s)... but yes, I'm
known for dreaming. :-)

Please send any answers directly to me (dgl@visi.com, from which this
message originates), as I have fallen hopelessly behind on this list since
moving to Virginia and, for a while, losing regular Internet
access.  Thanks much in advance.

You don't appear to have a 4.x Makefile.

That's not the correct tag for 4-STABLE. You want,

  tag=RELENG_4

No, it is not. CVSup does not make a tarball.

I dunno where this file came from.

I'm guessing you just rebuilt your 3.x world?

What is the result of,

  $ grep '\$(FreeBSD|Id)' /usr/src/Makefile

Just wanna see what source bundle you do have there. But what you need
to do is actually CVSup 4-STABLE.

I've installed FReeBSD 4.2, and also MRTG from the packages.

MRTG won't run though, it complains about...

/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpng.so.3" not found

Looking at the png 1.0.8 port that is a dependency, it creates libpng.so.4

Is this a problem with one or both ports?

What can I do to fix it? copy libpng.so.4 to .3?

Thanks,
Chuck

no, you don't have to install a webserver if you don't like to.

i'm no way a guru, but i wrote once or twice this kind of apps ..

you would like to start with RFC 1945 - HTTP/1.0   It's only 50
pages or so, and it's enough for what i see that you need.  I don't
see any reason to go with HTTP/1.1 - it's far more too work to do.

after that, write some html "generator".  for this, i think you 
could find some ready-written cgi libs, but i can't recommend you 
something specific, since i wrote my own wrappers. search in 
ports tree, i'm sure you will find something there.

you may need to know something about sockets.  i'll recommend "unix
network programming", w. richard stevens, prentice hall, 1990 :),
chapter 6 - berkley sockets.  also you may find another good docs on
the net.

but if you don't know nothing about sockets, and don't want to learn,
there is no problem :)  you can write a small "web server" without
this - just use the system's inetd.  for example, see how samba's swat
works (IIRC).  this will allow you to start an arbitrary program when
somebody connects to a specific port.  the port's input/ouput will
be redirected to the program's stdio, so you don't have to trouble with
sockets :)

I hate it when people who don't understand science and engineering
make demands on scientists or engineers, based solely on their
misperception of how the universe works.

The bottom line is that no aggregate structure can be more solid 
than the foundations upon which it is based.

That means that the best you can possibly do with a program
that runs on an operating system is to make it as stable as
the operationg system itself -- but no more so.

So if your Windows system crashes after 43 days of continuous
uptime because a 32 bit nanosecond counter has rolled over,
no matter what a programmer does, they can not make their own
software stay uf for more than 43 days.

The "anticrash" program you reference is largely a joke on
unsuspecting consumers, the same way "RAM doubler" and similar
programs were a joke at the consumer's expense.  Windows does
not perform correct resource tracking on a large number of
resources, and following an application crash, is therefore
not able to recover those resources from the crashed program.
Eventually, after several crashes of the program, your system
will not be able to recover sufficient resources to allow it
to continue to operate.

If it were possible to make Windows stable to several sigmas
while maintaining backward compatability, Microsoft would have
done it.  For all of their mistakes, and their use of new/raw
graduates to work on things like APIs and other "unsexy" work,
which their truly excellent programms feel is "beneath them"
leading to more instabilities than necessary, Microsoft _does_
have world-class engineers working on things like stability.

But realize this: the market has spoken, just as you have here,
and stated that maintaining compatability with the Windows
system is more important to them (just as it is more important
to you to be able to run Windows programs), than stability.  So
they made the trade-off in favor of compatability.

You have made a decision: you can no more have both Windows
compatability and BSD stability simultaneously, than you can
have a liter of vodka a day and keep your liver.  Windows
compatability _equals_ reduced stability.

For more details on this, please look up the term "Mean Time
Before Failure" or "MTBF", and how additive failure rates are
calculated.


There are kludge soloutions available.  You could run FreeBSD
as the primary OS, and run VMWare under FreeBSD, and host your
Windows OS as a hosted OS under FreeBSD.  This would keep your
host OS stable, but would not increase the Windows stability;
in addition, it would also mean that application interoperability
between the wo environments would be reduced.  In other words,
you can trade integration for stability which excludes Windows
itself.  Beware that this approach adds the MTBF for VMWare
to that of FreeBSD and Windows, for the Windows system, and
the MTBF of VMWare and FreeBSD for FreeBSD.


Here are a couple of other corrections to some of your other
misconceptions:

> THE ONLY THING THAT PREVENTED MICROSOFT FROM HAVING ABSOLUTE DOMINANCE
> BEFORE, WAS IT'S LACK OF A VIABLE UNIX IMPLEMENTATION.

Microsoft has had a UNIX implementation since 1982.

> when MICROSOFT does with linux what freebsd did, and allows

Linux does not "run under" FreeBSD.  FreeBSD provide ABI
compatability, so that _programs written for Linux_, and
_not Linux itself_, can run under FreeBSD.

Microsoft _already_ has this same capability: it recently
acquired a company that provided Linux ABI compatability
under Windows.  Realize that this is limited, due to the
need to integrate most desktop applications via the X
protocol, but that server applications will run.  As above,
however, this does _not_ render the platform any more stable
than if these were native Windows applications.


> ONCE MICROSOFT HAS NEGATED THE ARGUEMENT OF WINDOWS VS UNIX (BY
> PORTING UNIX TO WINDOWS) THERE WILL NOLONGER BE ANY ATTENTION
> PAID TO ANYTHING OTHER THAN WINDOWS.

NT achieved technical compliance with POSIX in 1994.  Technical
compliance is not the same as stability.   As long as smart people
are hired to make technical decisions on behalf of organizations,
most technical decisions will result in a meritocracy.  Technical
people are not swayed by marketing, they are swayed by the results
of testing and evaluations which they perform themselves.


> IT WAS A HEROIC ATTEMPT AT THE PRESIDENCY, BUT MICROSOFT CONTROLS
> THE ELECTION!  IT'S OVER!!

Luckily, Microsoft does not have the option of going to court
and insisting that we count a limited subset of the whole, with
rules changes on each iteration, until they get the result they
want.  The only court that matters is the court of the checkbook,
and so long as people keep ginving money to their competitors,
they will not have achieved a victory.


> THE QUESTION WAS, WHEN WILL IT BE POSSIBLE TO INSTALL FREEBSD
> FROM WINDOWS NT WITHOUT HAVING TO USE BOOT DISKS TO DO SO.

There is a _huge_ difference between "installing from" and
"installing on".  It's possible to solve the "installing from"
problem with code.

However, realize that you will not be able to utilize FreeBSD
without a reboot, should the code to do the job become available
to you.

In general, it is unlikely that the "installing from" problem
will be resolved, even though it is possible to do the work;
several barriers stand in the way:

o	It's complex; doing complex things in a Windows programming
	environment, which is where the work would have to take
	place, is not fun, it is tedious.  Because of this, if it
	is to occur at all, it will have to be funded.

o	The resulting code can not be called FreeBSD, unless the
	code is part of the FreeBSD project, due to constraints
	that have been asserted on the use of the FreeBSD
	trademark.  Because of this, there is no method of getting
	ROI (Return On Investment) for anyone other than the
	FreeBSD project itself, short of creating another BSD
	distribution entirely.  The FreeBSD project has not (yet)
	committed the funds for the work.

o	The value of doing the work is limited, since you would
	need to use a program similar to "Partition Magic" to do
	the repartitioning needed to reserve space for the new
	installation.  Such products require either licensing, or
	parallel developement, neither of which is free.  Again,
	the ROI equation means that such developement would have
	to be funded by the FreeBSD project itself.

o	It's really questionable whether having to reboot is an
	acceptable cost for getting the ability to install both
	systems simultaneously, if only one can run at a time,
	since the intent appears to be to "have the best of both
	worlds"; as previously discussed, this is not technically
	possible.

At this point it is traditional to say "patches are welcomed".

> <IF I HAD ONLY KNOWN ABOUT THIS BEFORE, I WOULD NOT HAVE BROUGHT FREEBSD!!>

The claims are greatly exaggerated.  The limitations are as noted
previously.  If you choose to believe these claims, it is at your
own risk, as the Micorsoft EULA (End User License Agreement)
points out.

The Adaptec 1520 does not have a boot ROM.  I have a number of
these cards: this is the same SCSI interface that ships with HP
scanners, and is a truly cheap card.  You can not boot from
this thing.  Boot from floppies, and use the "-v -c" kernel
options to bring up the visual configurator, and set the iRQ and
base address to the same settings as show up in the controller
configuration under Windows.  You will then be able to use the
boot floppies to boot, and the CDROm to install from.

Of course, you may not have read this far in the message, which
would be your loss.


> freebsd is the alien, not MS.

You have a strange sense of history.  Did it ever occur to you
that MS incompatability with other systems is in fact gratuitous
and intended as an anticompetitive practice?

> when freebsd generates the code that allows NT to write to UFS

Artisoft did this for Windows 95 in 1996; I was on the project.
A port to Windows NT would be rather trivial, as the IFSMgr
interfaces are comparable.  The Windows 95 code rights are
currently held by people I could put you in contact with, as
they took rights in the code as part of their severance, when
Artisoft's Tucson division was going under.


> and UFS to write to NTFS COMPRESSED,

This is a matter of code and of someone dedicating the effort to
write it.  I would go so far to say that, other than VOP_ABORT,
it is nothing more than "grunt work".  The major amount of the
effort would be dealing with the log and the compression.

If you are willing to provide the equipment and software I would
need, and willing to put up a surety bond that I will be paid
$170,000 for completing the work in no less than 3 months and
no more than 6 months, I'd be willing to do the work.  If you
are willing to change that to $510,000, I will do it as a
work-for-hire, which would mean that you would keep the rights
to sell, license, or otherwise dispose of the code, since you,
not I, would be the copyright holder.  Realize that other limits
may apply, since I would start with the read-only NTFS code that
is in FreeBSD today (prices go up for a wholly independent work).
My risk is that, if I do not complete the work, I do not get
paid.  I'm open to negotiation on timeframe and amount, of
course, and would provide for a time-limited exclusivity for
somewhere in the middle of the two amounts.

Well, I tried installing without checking the APM package, but the same
thing happened; do I need to modify the source code itself to disable
the APM option?  I have another dual-boot box with a Celeron 466 aboard,
so once I pull off the Linux distro, I'll try installing FBSD to that
one and see what happens.

Thanks again, guys, for all your feedback.

Dear Sirs.

Can anyone explain what 
	options		NSFBUFS=1024 or =4096


means? I played around with this option and on a 64MBytes machine,
pushing it to 1024 caused a heavy swapping so I commented out this
option to avoid it. What is a reasonable value for a server system
under heavy load and what for a client, maybe a diskless one?

Thanks in advance,

Oliver

Make sure that you do not have:
	apm_enable="YES"
in your /etc/rc.conf.  Either remove this line (apm_enable defaults
to NO - see /etc/defaults/rc.conf) or set it to NO.

If you do this & reboot, the microuptime stuff should stop (at
least it did for me).

I've been having this problem for a while now, but had no luck solving
it. My problem is that the hostnames that do not exist or those that are
down resolve to myself.

Here's an example:

$ ifconfig tun0 | grep "inet "
        inet 64.229.84.85 --> 64.229.84.1 netmask 0xffffff00 
$ ping example.com
PING xxxxx.xxx (64.229.84.85): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 64.229.84.85: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.311 ms
64 bytes from 64.229.84.85: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.518 ms
64 bytes from 64.229.84.85: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=0.327 ms
64 bytes from 64.229.84.85: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=0.946 ms
64 bytes from 64.229.84.85: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=0.583 ms

--- xxxxx.xxx ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.311/0.537/0.946/0.230 ms

You see what's going on?

I'm not running DNS. /etc/resolv.conf contains only two lines: primary
and secondary nameservers of my ISP.

Any suggestions where should I look?

Thanks.

No. You miss the point of the new kernel build procedure in 4.0. By
building the kernel with the "make buildkernel" in /usr/src as opposed
to the old /usr/sbin/config in /sys/i386/conf, you ARE using the new
(but not yet installed) files.

This allows the new kernel to be built and booted up so that the
installworld can be done under the new kernel. That is another reason
to reboot to single user mode prior to doing the installworld as
opposed to simple dropping into single-user mode.

I think this is probably poorly understood and a good explanation
(which I may have time to write some day, but not today) would clarify
when you need to use buildkernel and installkernel and when you can
use the faster "/sr/sbin/config CONFIG" method.

Short rule of thum..If you are rebuilding because you have updated
the system sources, use buildkernel and installkernel. If you are
making configuration changes and rebuilding from the current sources
with a different configuration, use /usr/sbin/config.

Hi,

I'm using FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE with whatever version of Samba that ships in the ports collection. I have an HP LaserJet 4L attached to lpt0 on the FreeBSD machine, shared via Samba for my local Windows users to use as their printer.

I've found that a header page (a single blank page) prints after each print job sent from one of the Windows machines. 

This didn't happen on my FreeBSD 3.3 machine; I'm using the same smb.conf file. 

The :sh: directive is set in /etc/printcap; I've not been able to find any helpful docs in the man pages or at samba.org; I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction...

Thanks!

P.S. I don't know whether a separator page prints after native print jobs; lpr file.txt results in the staircase effect, and the handy script in the printing section of the handbook simply caused the printer to print several blank pages; I haven't had time to troubleshoot...

Hiya all,

What commands are ther available for tape drives (especially backups) on a
FreeBSD 4.1.1 system. I have used "tar" but it hasn't been 100% successful.
I think I need to first format a tape. What commands are there to format
tapes / retension etc...


Thanks in advance....

Allan..

   This sets a value for the maximum number of sendfile buffers, which are
essentially headers for pages that have been queued for transmit, along with
a chunk of kernel virtual memory to map them. If your applications use
sendfile() heavily, then this will also have the side-effect of making those
[file] pages inelligble to be paged out. It is intended for tuning systems
that use sendfile() heavily.
   I would guess that your applications don't use sendfile(), however, and
thus tuning the above will have no effect except to wastefully allocate a lot
of kernel virtual memory for something that isn't used.
   Unless you know what you are doing, you should not set this option in
your kernel config file. Since you are setting it (and to the value that
is in the LINT kernel config file), this brings up the obvious question of
what other LINT options you have turned on. The options in the LINT config
file are only for testing the build of the kernel and should not be randomly
included in a production kernel config file. You should use the GENERIC
config file as a template to make your own, not LINT.

Hello,

I am new to FreeBSD. I am trying to get some linux programs to work under my
installation of FreeBSD but I am having some troubles.

I have already tried getting linux apps to work and have even followed
advice from others with no success. To summarise, I have already tried the
following:

*	When Installing FreeBSD I said "Yes" to the question "Would you like
to have linux compatibility". This then installed some compatibility
libraries which I assume are all the librararies that are needed.
*	After installation I checked the /usr/compat/linux/ shadow
directories and saw that there wer lots of directories that were ther. I
looked in /usr/compat/linux/lib and saw that there were lots of linux
libraries there.
*	Next I edited the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file and added
LINUX_ENABLE="YES". I thought that this was a bit strange that it said no to
start with because I had asked for linux compatibility during install.
*	I rebooted and did "kldstat". I expected to see the linux module but
I did not. I am running a recent version of FreeBSD (dated About June this
year and purchased as FreeBSD Toolkit v5). I am thinking that maybe the
linux compatibility module is now statically linked to the kernel. Is this
correct? I wasnt sure so I tried typing "linux" as the handbook advised but
it said that this module was unknown.
*	Anyway, after assuming that the linux compatibility is statically
linked, I then tried to install a few linux apps to see what would happen. I
got StarOffice3.1 to install and I got Wingz (spreadsheet) to install. When
I tried to execute these programs they both gave me the results
"/lib/libname not found" (I cant remember the exact name of the library but
it did exist in the linux shadow library directory). I realised that the
program was still looking for where linux keeps its modules. I therefore
created a /lib directory and copied the linux modules from the
/usr/compat/linux/lib directory and then tried to run the app. I got
"segmentation fault core dumped". 
*	I then consulted the manual again and it said that I should put the
binaries (Wingz and swriter etc) into the /usr/compat/linux/lib directory
and run them from there. This did not work - it just said "/lib/libname not
found".

Is ther anything else I can try to get this to work? Have I made a mistake
in setting up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Matthew Peacock

Hello,

I am new to FreeBSD and I recently purchased a FreeBSD toolkit that includes
a CD with the entire web pages and CVS repository on it. On viewing the
directories contained within the CD I could see that each file had the
suffix ",v" appended to it. I was hoping that I would be able to use the CD
to look up tutorials and how to's but the information contained within the
sgml files is not able to be properly read in netscape. Must I somehow
install the documentation pages before I am able to view it in netscape and
use the hyperlinks etc. Ironically, I'm sure that the documentation in the
sgml pages on the CD explains all this, but I am unable to read it properly
until I learn how to install it. I looked up the doumentation primer at
http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/docproj-primer/
<http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/docproj-primer/>  but it said "the
document assumes that you already know How to maintain an up-to-date local
copy of the FreeBSD documentation by maintaining a local copy of the FreeBSD
CVS repository". Can anyone please point me towards a how-to or expalin to
me how I install the documentation pages from the CD?

Thanks in advance,
Matthew Peacock

I would, if I were you, go to the FreeBSD website at www.freebsd.org and
read, or even better, get, in probably .pdf or .rtf format, the FreeBSD
Handbook.  It explains a *lot* of the basics of configuring/running FreeBSD.

Or, if your BSD machine is running somewhat, and you have lynx or something
like that installed, look in /usr/share/doc/handbook.  There's an html
version of it there.  You can also go to ftp.freebsd.org (or mirror site)
and get it in .PDF format, among others.

Hi all,

I am having some difficulty with the PCMCIA cards on my old Thinkpad
760EL laptop, on which I have installed 4.2-RELEASE. [previously running
Win95]

Basically I have 2 cards - A 3Com 589D ethernet and an old USR 28.8
Sportster. Both work independently, i.e., I can insert the 3Com card, do
network activity, then remove it and insert in the sportster and connect
via cu, but when I try to have both in at the same time, I run into
problems. A log of events is shown at the bottom of this mail. I've
tried all sorts of configurations, swapping ports, ordering, checking
the 'irq' line in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf, which is really confusing
me.

After enough inserting, reinstering, killing and restarting pccard with
different configurations, I once managed to get them both working, but
to test, I rebooted and was back to the square one again.

I used FreeBSD since 2.2.5, but this is my first experience with running
PCMCIA devices and using it on laptops in general - can anyone throw any
pointers as to what's going on?

Thanks;

Steven Fletcher

Can't help much more as you don't really give us much to go on. Such as 
what kind of tape is it? Tape drive? Interface? Are you sure FreeBSD 
recognizes the device? If so, what device name did you try with tar? 
And what about tar was less than 100% successful? Was it 95%? Or 0%? 
And what are you trying to backup? User files? Or the whole enchilada?

DDS (DAT), 8mm, and others, do not need or have a "format" required 
before their use.

In addition to tar there are two other utilities commonly used for 
backup, dump and pax. If you want the best possible backup of your 
system then I recommend using dump from single user mode. 

In single user mode you'd do something like this:
# mt -t /dev/nsa0 rewind
# dump 0af /dev/nsa0 /
# mount -ro /var
# dump 0af /dev/nsa0 /var
# mount -ro /usr
# dump 0af /dev/nsa0 /usr
...

Having a backup/dump of the entire system is nice to have. However a 
backup of /etc, /var, and /home, results in most all of the important 
stuff which is not on the CDROM. These filesystems (or directories) 
archive with tar very easily. A snapshot on a running system is usually 
perfectly satisfactory.

But first you have to figure out what your other problem is.

Useing adduser(8) for the first time will create pw.conf for you.

Try using "-h 0" instead of "-h fd".  man pw again!

There IS a fix.  Make a small DOS (Fat16) partition at the beginning of the
drive, and use Boot Manager to boot to your required system from there.
 As you are already on the limit of 4 partitions, to adopt this fix you would
have to delete one of the existing ones - perhaps you could manage without P3?

That 4-partition (ONE of which can be extended) limitation is a PAIN.  It is
the reason I use 2 8M drives rather than 1 16M drive.

Same as always. No changes in filesystems or disklabels between the

OK, which was a package and which was made from a port?

From what you said, MRTG was from a package? Try building it from a
port.

Hello, 
I'm in trouble, after going to 4.2-STABLE after 4.2-BETA I can't boot
my diskless/headless router :-(
dhcpd gives correct address to him, but router does not boot. 
/var/log/messages on server has:
Dec  4 08:00:41 demon dhcpd: if IN A  doesn't exist add 450 IN A  192.168.4.2: r
esolver failed.

And PC does not boot :-(

That netmask is strange. What does your routing table look at it while
we're at it?

But more to the point, what happens if you have a 'tcpdump port 53'
running when you get these odd lookup results? A,

  # tcpdump -vvnX port 53

Would be even better.

Sorry for asking.

Which mother board chip set is the most suitable for the FreeBSD?
How about the i81x and the VIA chip set?

Thank you.

Not sure if anyone's tried this. I have a heterogenous network with a
FreeBSD server running Samba for file/print sharing. I have a HP LaserJet
2100M setup with apsfilter to print, and I want to setup a lp device
either in /etc/printcap or in Samba, so that anything printed to it will
create a postscript file, or a pdf. Has anyone done this or have any
suggestions on where to start?
Thanks in advance.

Reason was not very accurate work with mergemaster. Default inetd.conf
has tftp disabled. But for netboot it need to be enabled.

I said:
> What is the procedure to I mount a 3-STABLE disk in a 4-STABLE system?


My procedure was:
squishy is 3-STABLE
daemon is 4-STABLE

I copied the approriate fstab entries from squishy to daemon, changing
from wd to ad.  for example:

was:
/dev/wd0s1a /             ufs rw 1 1

now:
/dev/ad2s1a /mnt/squishy/ ufs ro 1 1

directory /mnt/squishy exists

disk was primary master, now secondary slave.

moved disk
booted new system
choose to not fsck new fs from old disk
mount had an error regarding device not found

I don't have an exact error at hand; I'm currently using scp -pr to
move data.

I'm looking for a way to log all shell activity to a place
where the individual user can't see it's being logged to, and
if possible, cannot tamper with the log file.

I'd like it to work for all shells (bash, tcsh, csh, etc).

Anyone have a program or script?

Can't offer much help until we get the actual error message, but does
/dev/ad2s1a exist? Might have to,

  # cd /dev
  # ./MAKEDEV ad2s1a

I mounted a drive from a 2.2.4 system into a 4.2 system last week, and 3.x
drives aren't any different from that.

The device not found error possible indicates that you haven't made the
devices in /dev, ie; does /dev/ad2s1a exist?  If not, change to the /dev
directory and do:

 sh MAKEDEV ad2s1a

Hello!

I am running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE and I am the owner of a Handspring Visor
Deluxe, but I have only an USB-Cradle. 
The 4.2 RELEASE notes says that the Visor is a supported device now.
OK, I can make a backup with coldsync using /dev/ugen0. That is working
perfectly. But I cannot use the other palm apps like malsync.
Is it possible to use malsync to sync my Avantgo channels?

setenv PILOTPORT /dev/ugen0
<Pressing the Hotsync Button>
malsync 

But I only get the following error message:

Unable to bind to port '/dev/ugen0'

Anybody has an idea what's wrong?

Thanks,
Herbert

I am having a problem with the MAIL environment variable.

This is on a FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE system that was upgraded from 4.1-STABLE.
We have installed and are running qmail on this system, in place of
sendmail. Mail is stored in a Mailbox file in each user's home directory,
rather than /var/mail. Therefore, I want to have the MAIL environment
variable for all users point to this file rather than /var/mail/userid.

I have edited the default class in /etc/login.conf so that the setenv line
reads:

  :setenv=MAIL=~/Mailbox,BLOCKSIZE=K,FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES,FOO=bar:\

And I have run cap_mkdb to regenerate the database. The user's
/etc/master.passwd entry has nothing in the login class field, so the
default class should be in effect. 

However, on this system, upon login, $MAIL is always set to
/var/mail/userid. Yet $FOO is set to bar, so something strange is going
on.

I have ruled out the possibility of post-login scripts like .cshrc
interfering. There is nothing in ~/.* referring to /var/mail. There is
nothing in /etc/* referring to /var/mail. I also ruled out the shell; the
user's login shell is /bin/tcsh, nothing too unusual. I tried with /bin/sh
and got the same results.

So how is $MAIL becoming /var/mail/userid?

It's especially puzzling becasue I can't duplicate the problem on a fresh
installation of FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE with vanilla sendmail. The exact same
login.conf entry is processed just fine, and $MAIL is the absolute path to
the user's Mailbox file in their home directory, just as I intended.

'strings /usr/bin/login | fgrep mail' reveals that /var/mail is compiled
into login(1), but big deal.. the 4.2-RELEASE system has the exact same
binary (I checked).

Any ideas?

TIA,
-Mike

Using an mp3 player on my 100mhz pentium (mp3blaster)
causes sputtering - my machine is probably not fast enough.
It only drops out maybe once per song - 

Isn't there a command that puts a greater percentage of the system
resources into a single task?

That would be useful during times when my only purpose for the
machine is to play music in my house.

Hi,

Have you tried mpg123 or xmms instead? It's very fast, and will probably
work on your computer. They're in the ports collection.

To answer your question:

man renice

I managed to be able to play music on such an old machine with
starting mpg123 with the -2 option and lots of buffering. But on
the other hand, I had to start X with it also.

Man rtprio or man idprio should give you some help also.

Hello.

I was wondering what it would take to setup a cluster array of servers to
process CPU intensive tasks?

I run game servers and wonder if it would be viable or even feasable to get
some high power Dual Processor boxes and set them up in a cluster
configuration.

I run some pretty hefty game servers and they are processor intensive.  We
can push Dual 933s and Dual 800s to max.  In addition, we use a LOT of
bandwidth.

Any help or push in the right direction would be appreciated.

MAtt

Thanks, Crist and Ken.

I had read a recommendation of ./MAKEDEV all, but somehow overlooked
implementing it.  In this case, I followed your advice for each of
four partitions, and that resolved my issue.  

Maybe it wasn't clear enough in the Handbook:

Subject: automount remote CDROMs with amd

I'm trying to automount remote CDROM drives with amd (I have 7 on 3
machines), and I'd like to be able to pop a CD in a drive on any
machine, and be able to cd into it from any other machine, and then have
it timeout and auto dismount just like it does with a local cd in the
automount map.  I usually have problems with it getting errors like
Stale NFS mount, or permission denied, which seem to eventually get
cleared up if I do amq -u drive and then killall -HUP mountd several
times on the host with the drive.  This seems rather hacked to do it
this way, and I was wondering if anyone's come up with a cleaner way
to do this?

Here are the cd's amd maps:

/defaults       type:=nfs;opts:=ro,nosuid,vers=2,proto=udp

cdrom           host!=tyan;rhost:=tyan;rfs:=/amd/cdrom \

                host==tyan;type:=cdfs;dev:=/dev/cd1a;fs:=/amd/cdrom1

Peace,


   I'm running FreeBSD 3.2 release.

   I want to set up in home an internet connection, between 2 boxes.
   1 nics in BSD box, 1nic in win98 box.

   i want the fBSD to be as a proxy to net, (dialer machine)
   so the win98 will be as a gateway (connected to the fBSD).

   how i setup that in fBSD.

   Thank you

  -Marwan

I'm after some help on what gigabit ethernet card is supported on =

'man wx' says it's for "the original WISEMAN and the newer LIVENGOOD =

/usr/src/sys/pci/if_wx.c says it's the "Intel Gigabit Ethernet (82452) =

http://www.intel.com/network/products/pro1000giga.htm talks about an =
82543GC Gigabit Controller. There are 2 NICs, a Pro/1000T and a =
Pro/1000FS.
Intel don't seem to make any mention of Wiseman or Livengood chipsets.

My questions are:=20
1. Is the 82543GC Gigabit Controller from Intel supported? and=20
2. Do both the fibre optic and UTP versions work?

  Hello,

    I have a configured and good working FBSD-4.0 box. 
    Now I'm planning to migrate to 4.2 because the 4.2 kernel supports
    some new things('uscanner' driver for example).
    Please advice me how to do that smoothly and without loosing the
    configuration I have now.
    I've not found a clear description of steps how to upgrade the system.

     Thanks,
              Igor I.

Not that I know of, but I don't know what IE5 does internally. If
possibly, I'd try placing a copy where requests for /favicon.ico will
find it.

No, that's what the "buildkernel" target is for. It uses the binaries
built (but not installed) by buildworld to build the kernel.

This is why you need to use
buildworld/buildkernel/installkernel/installworld when upgrading the
sources, but can use config/make depend/make/make install when
rebuilding a kernel from installed sources.

I don't see a reasonable way to do this if you are thinking about
using the builtin "history" mechanism of the shells. At least not
without hacking the source code of each shell. The history mechanisms
are there for exploitation by the user, not the administrator, and
therefore are easy for the user to monitor and to change.

One possibility is to use the builtin accounting functionality. See
accton(8), sa(8), lastcomm(1), and acct(5) for more information.
This would be a reasonable solution for usage statitics and very basic
security monitoring (on unsophisticated users).

None of these options is practical for comprehensive security
auditing. I can't tell from your brief mail what your intentions are.

Hello again!

I'm having a problem trying to create a vinum configuration and I'm hoping 
you can help. Please read on.

I have a 4.2-RELEASE system with, amoung other things, a Compaq SMART-2 RAID 
adapter in it. Due to the collection of old hard drives I had sitting around 
the system has the following drives available in fbsd...

/dev/idad0 = 4GB Drive
/dev/idad1 = 4GB Drive
/dev/idad2 = 6.1GB Drive
/dev/idad3 = 2GB Drive

As those device names indicate these are not physical drives but logical 
drives looked after by the Compaq SMART-2 controller. I won't bore you with 
the physical details of each of those logical drives but if you think it's 
relevant I'll be happy to supply the information.

The fbsd system is installed on idad0 which leaves the other drives free. So 
I'd prefer to have 1 x 12GB drive then a collection of 1 x 4GB, 1 x 6GB and 
1 x 2GB drives.

Enter vinum. I am hoping to be able to make a logical drive across those 
drives to provide the one drive setup. Redundancy is not important to me 
(it's provided at hardware level) so a concat setup is good.

Now the problem. I have previously used vinum before (on a 3.4-RELEASE 
system) and going through the file /var/tmp/vinum_history tells me this is 
what I did to create a vinum drive previously...

5 Mar 2000 17:13:11.885224 stripe -v /dev/da0s1e /dev/da1s1e
5 Mar 2000 17:19:10.085026 ?
5 Mar 2000 17:19:11.869790 help
5 Mar 2000 17:19:24.079413 saveconfig

5 Mar 2000 17:19:28.719768 *** Created devices ***
5 Mar 2000 17:19:56.568246 quit

... and after doing that the configuration ran without a hitch for 7 months. 
Now when I try the similiar command it fails. Following are the details of 
the failure.

I have the following partitions setup (by using disklabel -e)...

# disklabel /dev/idad1s1
<snip>
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]

  e: 12656128        0     vinum                        # (Cyl.    0 -

  e:  4096544        0     vinum                        # (Cyl.    0 - 505*)

Dec  4 19:45:40 hostx /kernel: vinum: vinum0.p0 is up

I have done a bit of searching through the usual mailing list archives and 
newsgroups to find that this error usually means that the partitions in 
question have not been labelled as type vinum. Surely this isn't the case 
here.

So next I am wondering does vinum have a problem with the fact that the 
drives in question are not physical drives by logical drives themselves? 
Given the fact that vinum can make RAID-10 configurations (a logical drive 
built on a logical drive) surely this isn't the case as well...?

Please, any ideas? I'm stumped.

Thanks
Aaron Hill

Yup, I ran into it the first time I wanted to use a BSD that supported
multiple group memberships in a commercial environment. We wanted
~100s of groups per user. Contemplating the effect that changing
NGROUPS_MAX to that would have on kernel memory usage made me go look
for a better solution (and I found one).

It exists for the same reason hard limits exist in so many other
places - because Unix was written when machines were much smaller and
slower (I was once at a site that ran into a bug with Unix if you put
more than 256K or so in a machine), and it was faster and more space
efficient just to set up a hard limit than to implement a linked list
for this case. It's still there because nobody who has the time,
inclination and talent to fix it has ever been hit by the limit in
such a way as to make fixing it a reasonable solution.

Which begs the question - why do you need so many groups? There may be
a better solution to the problem that's causing that than kernel
groups.

You would need some sort of inter-machine communication code.
Several libraries are in the ports tree that support inter-machine
clustering.

Sure, tell us what you really need to do. :)

No, that's not the case.

In the manual.

The syntax is correct.  The problem must be elsewhere.  In my case,
the problem is that you haven't submitted the information I ask for in
http://www.vinumvm.org/vinum/how-to-debug.html.

OK, no known problems there.  I've run Vinum on pretty much that
configuration.

Ok, I don't know what asking for Linux compatability at install time
does. You need to do two things, though: 1) enable the kernel API
support for Linux, and install the linux_base port.

That would indicate that the linux_base port was installed. You might
verify that /compat is a symlink to /usr/compat, or /compat/linux is a
symlink to /usr/compat/linux.

You should *never* touch anything in /etc/defaults/. Those files hold
default values for things you set in files in /etc. In this case,
/etc/rc.conf - which should have had LINUX_ENABLE="yes" added by the
install process.

It doesn't look like the Linux module is statically linked.  You
should try loading it by hand, though. Try running "/sbin/kldload
linux", then check the console error messages. If Linux is already
already loaded, it will say "module linux already present" or words to
that effect. If it's wasn't loaded, and the module exists, that will
load it for you. If you can't get it loaded, you won't be able to get
them to run.

Care to provide the exact text of the message you got from running
"linux"? There are a number of things that can be interpreted as
saying the module was unknown, but don't mean that.

Um - if you have the linux module loaded, it will check
/compat/linux/lib before it checks /lib. If you managed to overwrite
FreeBSD libraries with their Linux version, your system is going to be
*very* flaky.

Binaries? In a lib directory? Where in the manual does it say that?

This is almost certainly hardware - the system isn't getting the
interrupts from the device for some reason. I'd pull the new RAM
before trying anything else.

Hi Everyone!

I want to know  if it is possible to use flash disks in FreeBSD.

If it, can anydbody tell me something about it (how much it costs, how it works...)

Thanks in advance.

Hi all

My laptop has an ATI Rage Mobility AGP card in it. According to ATI rech
support, this card is VESA-compliant - but FreeBSD doesn't recognise it
as such.

I searched the mailing list archives, and found

> /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vesa.c, line 680:
>                 if ((vmode.v_modeattr & (V_MODEOPTINFO | V_MODENONVGA))

> 
> The v_modeattr returned by ATI VESA bios has V_MODENONVGA bit set,
> so all the vesa modes are ommited...

so I hacked this code to ignore the V_MODENONVGA flag. This was only
partially successful: I now get some VESA stuff being printed upon boot,
but still can't use any of the VESA modes.

I also found someone who has the an ATI Rage Mobility in a Dell Inspiron
laptop, who claims to have no problem with the VESA modes.

Has anyone else got such a chipset, and if so, have they had any luck
with using VESA modes with syscons?

TIA

Dear Sirs,
 I recently received my FreeBSD 4.4 CDROM Set (4 CDROMs), and am having
trouble getting past the boot up process.  First let me set your mind at
ease, I have a very good understanding of computer hardware, software, and
configuration from all the way through MSDOS 3.23 through Win 2000 Pro and
have classroom experience recently with Unix System Administrator Course
(Free BSD).  Hopefully you should not have to start with did you turn the
computer on question.....  Anyway, The following is a list of my hardware,
current O/S and synopsis of what I have done and what the result was:

Hardware:
ASUS P2B-F AGP Mainboard & Award Bios
Intel Pentium II, 350mhz Celeron
128MB 168 pin DIMM Memory module
18Gbyte Hardrive space (3 Physical Drives)
Matrox Millenium G200 8MB SGRAM AGP
TEAC CD-524E IDE CDROM Drive
Matsushita CW-7582 IDE CDR Drive
IOMEGA Zip 250
Stdrd 3.5" Floppy Drive

Current O/S:
Win 2000 Professional V 5.00.2195

Synopsis of events undertaken:
Action: 	Modified BIOS to allow CDROM Boot
Result: 	Would not boot from CDROM gave the following error:
  			"CDROM Boot Failure"

Actions Taken:	Read all txt files in the FreeBSD CDROM Root, Floppies,
tools directories, and  
				and followed instructions on setting up boot
floppies as follows:

Step 1.		Modified BIOS to allow CDROM Boot:
			Received the following symptom:

  			"CDROM Boot Failure"

Step 2.  	Formatted floppies from in Win 2000 Pro utilizing the
makeflp.exe located in FreeBSD
 			CDROM Root, and it asked for 1 disk for the kern.flp
and one for mfsroot.flp and 
			the process completed with no problems.
Step 3.		Transferred image files from in Win 2000 Pro by running the
FDimage.exe file to transfer 
			image files of the kern and mfsroot .flp files to
each of their respective disks.  
			There were no errors displayed.
Step 4.		Re-Modified BIOS to boot primarily from A : Drive.
Step 5.		Put Floppy with Kern.flp into floppy drive and rebooted
computer.  Received the 
			following symptoms:

			Disk Error 0x10 (lba=0xd8)
			Invalid Format

			>>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
			Default: 0:fd(0:a)/kernel
			boot:
			No /kernel

			>>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
			Default: 0:fd(0:a)/kernel
			boot:  

NOTE: 		Cursor left flashing immediately following second "boot:"
and no further action
			from computer.

Step 6.		Started at Step 1 again and retried each step, resulting in
identical results.


I am assuming that by the errors given that my computer will not support
booting from CDROM, and the boot process could not find the kernel on the
floppy disk, but I did not receive any errors when transferring the image
file.  Can you provide me some assistance?  I am sure there is something
that I have overlooked, or did incorrectly and greatly appreciate what ever
assistance you can provide.  Thanks in advance and look forward to your
response.

Hello,
I am shortly going to be in the luxurious position of being
able to afford a new computer :) My budget is fairly limited,
but so are my needs.
I want to ask BSD experts about tradeoffs in cost (I am familiar
with these for Linux, I want to see if the same kinds of things
hold true for BSD).

- My disk space requirements are modest, and I have lots of space
on other computers i can get at through NFS. Would it be better therefore
to invest in SCSI hardware at the cost of lower processing power ?
- Advice on a good reasonable price motherboard would be appreciated.
- I require good graphics capabilities, again what tradeoff price wise
should I make here against processor/memory costs.
- Will I discernibly benefit from 256 MB ram as opposed to 128 ? The
machine will be in use all the time, but traffic volumes will be low.

One of the problems with only getting this information from hardware
compatibility lists is of course the question "do all these things
work together ?".

Any tips and hints will be gratefully appreciated.

Oh since I live in Holland dollar prices don't mean that much, everything
electronic is much dearer here than in the states. I imagine
comparitive prices are much the same though.

thanks

Cliff

Alex,

I have redirected your question to FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.org. It is the place to ask common questions about FreeBSD.

To start any application automatically at boot time, write a short shell script named <appName.sh>, make it executable and owned by root, and drop it into /usr/loca/etc/rc.d/. Most ports do this for you if they need to start up daemons at boot time. TRhe squid 2.3-port automagically produces this startup script:

---<snip here>--
#!/bin/sh

if ! PREFIX=$(expr $0 : "\(/.*\)/etc/rc\.d/$(basename $0)\$"); then
    echo "$0: Cannot determine the PREFIX" >&2
    exit 1
fi

case "$1" in
start)
        if [ -x ${PREFIX}/sbin/RunCache -a -f ${PREFIX}/etc/squid/squid.conf ];
then
                (cd /tmp; ${PREFIX}/sbin/RunCache >/dev/null 2>&1 &) ; echo -n '
 squid'
        fi
        ;;
stop)
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop}" >&2
        ;;
esac

exit 0
---<snip here>---

using /etc/rc.conf.local to start up userland apps is no longer redcommended.

21 is not many - but of course, it depends what are you conting :)
But you might be right. My problem is that I want to secure users' homes
by chmod 750, but as they often need my help with their files, I just 
want to be in every group they are in. Our current configuration is that
every user possesses a group with same name.

 i think mail.local is fooling around with the $MAIL variable.
for qmail, set delivery options when calling qmail-send, as in the script

/var/qmail/boot/home

Subject: $MAIL w/qmail defaults to /var/mail/userid?

I am having a problem with the MAIL environment variable.

This is on a FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE system that was upgraded from
4.1-STABLE.
We have installed and are running qmail on this system, in place of
sendmail. Mail is stored in a Mailbox file in each user's home
directory,
rather than /var/mail. Therefore, I want to have the MAIL environment
variable for all users point to this file rather than /var/mail/userid.

I have edited the default class in /etc/login.conf so that the setenv
line
reads:

  :setenv=MAIL=~/Mailbox,BLOCKSIZE=K,FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES,FOO=bar:\

And I have run cap_mkdb to regenerate the database. The user's
/etc/master.passwd entry has nothing in the login class field, so the
default class should be in effect. 

However, on this system, upon login, $MAIL is always set to
/var/mail/userid. Yet $FOO is set to bar, so something strange is going
on.

I have ruled out the possibility of post-login scripts like .cshrc
interfering. There is nothing in ~/.* referring to /var/mail. There is
nothing in /etc/* referring to /var/mail. I also ruled out the shell;
the
user's login shell is /bin/tcsh, nothing too unusual. I tried with
/bin/sh
and got the same results.

So how is $MAIL becoming /var/mail/userid?

It's especially puzzling becasue I can't duplicate the problem on a
fresh
installation of FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE with vanilla sendmail. The exact
same
login.conf entry is processed just fine, and $MAIL is the absolute path
to
the user's Mailbox file in their home directory, just as I intended.

'strings /usr/bin/login | fgrep mail' reveals that /var/mail is compiled
into login(1), but big deal.. the 4.2-RELEASE system has the exact same
binary (I checked).

Any ideas?

TIA,
-Mike

 one way is to use the bootdisks and select "upgrade" after you boot into
/stand/sysinstall

  Hello,

    I have a configured and good working FBSD-4.0 box. 
    Now I'm planning to migrate to 4.2 because the 4.2 kernel supports
    some new things('uscanner' driver for example).
    Please advice me how to do that smoothly and without loosing the
    configuration I have now.
    I've not found a clear description of steps how to upgrade the
system.

     Thanks,
              Igor I.

Hi
I had a similar problem - is '/' mounted using the wd or ad device?

If you hard boot you should have all ad disk devices mounted but I 
found a soft boot left me with '/' still using a wd slice. Not a problem 
anymore but after using disklabel and general futzing about the box no
longer has the problem.

Neil

I would try remaking the boot floppies.  I tend to use rawrite.exe, which is
also on the dist CD's.  It
might be worth while using new, unused floppies.

See how you get on. You'll have to do both disks manually, and I'm not aware
of any problems with 
doing this under Win2K.

Good luck...

Dan

Subject: Another 4.2 FBSD "Pcm0 interrupt timeout, channel dead"
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

I found out from searching the archives that this has
been discussed in -stable but 
1) I couldn't find anything that would help me 
2) I'm not subscribed to -stable so I'm not sending 
  this there.

(Please bear with me, I tend to be a bad writer,
 usually it's pretty hard to follow what I'm 
 trying to say ..)

FYI, I have GUS MAX (CS4231) non-pnp.

So. My problem is the pcm0 channel dead problem, but
with the following difference to other cases:
What I understood, many others have upgraded from 3.x to
4-STABLE, and have had problems with CS423x newpcm.

I upgraded from 4.0-stable from mid-april, to 4.2-RELEASE, and newpcm stopped working. What has been changed between 4.0 and 4.2?

I tried several things, and finally even used the same
kernel configuration file in 4.2 than in 4.0, and all
that I get with newpcm, is a perfectly detected card,
(same messages as in 4.0) but when I try to play
mpg123, the first time I get 1 message "pcm0 int" etc. (see the subject) if i try to play another song with mpg123, I get "cannot open /dev/dsp".

After I got too pissed off, 
(48 hours straight, including 3 make worlds, i upgraded from sources, and at least 15 custom kernels.. god I love it :) 
I deciced to give a classic a try: VOXWARE SAVED THE DAY !!! (Woohoo)

Indeed, Voxware works. I changed absolutely nothing, 
i use the same drq's, same irq and the only difference is that voxware works and newpcm doesn't.

The bad thing is that voxware tends to "lose sync" randomly when playing mp3's: sound quality drops dramatically and sounds like there would be static. 
Stopping the playing and starting fxtv and stopping fxtv
resolves the problem.

FWIW, my pc configuration 
(i dont have dmesg output at work, sorry):
GUS MAX 512k isa
Hauppauge WinTV PCI + remote
Abit HotRod Pro ATA100 controller (at pci)
samsung 30g ata100 disk
seagate 6 g ata66 disk
intel chipset 
atapi cd-rom on motherboard's ata33 controller
matrox millennium I pci

and of course a network card, realtek 8029.

Does anyone have any other solution than downgrade
newpcm sources back to 4.0?

Hello Dan,

For what it is worth: I have an ASUS P2B and also had some problems to boot
from CDROM. I canŽt check exactly anymore, as I have nowadays only
SCSI-CDROM in it. The clue was that the BIOS will magically turn the
bootable CD into a "floppy" so the boot order had to be "CDROM,A,C" (canŽt
remember exactly if it was maybe "A,CDROM,C").

For the problem with the boot floppies: I always avoided the DOS-tools, as I
had problems with them. Look for the next UNIX-machine and use
dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/<whatever_your_floppy_is_there>

That worked 100%. If not try different floppies, the ones sold nowadays are
crappy in a high percentage.

Ciao

Hello,
I am running a FreeBSD machine. I would like to store
several files on a large ramdisk. These files will be used to perform
FTP transfer via the libfetch functions.
Is there any way to set up a ramdisk for this purpose ?
Thanks
Gilles

Hi.
Im running a freebsd version called IPSO. Its kinda like a stripped freebsd version 4.0 or later i think. 
Id like to start CRON jobs. I know how to make the cron -e command, and how to configure the time or date i want it to execute, but i cant get it to execute the commands ive typed into a file.  I made a file in VI. I dont know if thats the right thing. And saved it with the regular :w , :q! . 
I want to use CRON  to take backups of files, every sunday. 
The vi file contains the dirs and files i want to backup. 
Anyone know how to help me out ?!

/Hans

Where is your site that has the icon? I would like to try it with
IE5. Also, what was the path that you placed the icon?

The problem may be that I didn't get a good copy.

I could not get it from the browser, so what I did was

fetch http://www.mired.org/favicon.ico  (if I remember the path 
correctly).

Thanks

Hi All,

I recently experienced a full lockup of a 3.4-RELEASE machine. The symptoms 
were as follows: the stack still answered pings, though no network services
were available, the console driver allowed switching virtual consoles,
but after typing "root" at "login:" prompt no "Password:" prompt appeared,
no disk activity was observable. The logs showed nothing, except that 
the last syslog entry and the last squid log entry were separated by
several seconds. It would seem that different procceses stopped or were 
killed at roughly the same time. No kernel messages were on the console.
The machine is a 3.4-RELEASE + tcp-iss patch running named, postfix, squid.
Ipfilter is installed. The time is kept by ntpdate which accidentally or 
not adjusted the time several seconds before the lockup. The box locked up 
solid at midnight and was no better nine hours later when it was reset.
Ctrl-Alt-Del did not reboot it.

Does anybody have any ideas as to what may have caused it ? I would very much
like to avoid the repetition of the problem as many people are heavily

You're right - 21 isn't many. But that number will change every time
you add a user, and your solution to the problem doesn't scale well. I
think that's the real reason this hasn't been changed - solutions that
depend on the user being a member of one or more groups don't scale
well, so they tend to be avoided.

If the goal is really to keep other users from reading each others
accounts, while letting you read them, I'd suggest that that's pretty
much what root access was meant for. If that bothers you, you can set
up sudo to let you su to a specific user id without going through a
root shell. If you feel like doing some coding, a set of shell
commands that hook into the acl interface could be used, and would
probably be something that the community as a whole would appreciate.

Hi all,

Few questions:

1. Does FreeBSD's asr driver support Adaptec Raid controllers: 2100S,
3200S and 3400S?
2. Which brand is better, Mylex or Adaptec? I've heard that Mylex's
AcceleRaid 352 is extremely good.
3. Anyone has Intel Baytown motherboard with on-board SCSI controller?
Anyone knows what type of card that is?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Noor

idem, 'my.vi.file' is your "The vi file contains the dirs and files i want to backup."

here we make a directory to contains your backups, and print it if it doesn't exists

next, for each line of the my.vi.file file, which represent a filename, we copy it to our backup directory, we can change "cp $i $SAVE" with "cp $i $SAVE/$(date "+%y%m%d")-$i" to preserve the old files

you have to chmod +x my script to be able to run it

next, pur into your cron -e:
1 3 * * * /path/myfile > /dev/null 2>&1

the "> /dev/null 2>&1" part is necessary if you don't want to receive an email each time

I noticed that vesa.c 1.34 has this change in it (4.2-stable is still
using vesa.c 1.32). This does buy me some progress, in that I get some
better dmesg output:

VESA: v2.0, 8128k memory, flags:0x0, mode_table:0xc02b6f62 (1000022)
VESA: ATI MACH64

However, using vidcontrol and attempting to set any VESA modes still
produces "operation not supported by device".

I guess the next step is to get all the debug output from vesa.c, and
see if it finds any usable VESA modes at all.

[I'm cross-posting this to freebsd-current, as it seems to be relevant
to the latest vesa.c changes]

Hi,

I suggest you use mod_rewrite (I assume you use Apache) to let Apache return
a favicon.ico file for any directory. I've set this up at
http://www.govteen.com, and it goes like this (stick this into a VirtualHost
entry)

---snip---
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule favicon.ico$ /images/favicon.ico [L]
---snip---

This, of course, requires you to stick the favicon.ico file in /images :D

Enjoy!

Greetings,
I am running:
FreeBSD proxy 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #0:
Mon Mar 20 22:50:22 GMT 2000
root@monster.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC
i386

I recently noticed 'someone' knocking on my door with anonymous
ftp.  Then I noticed others.  A total of four attempts recorded
in /var/log/messages.  Since none of those services are used on
this computer (at least by my users) I freaked a bit.
This machine provides internet access for my network.  It has
a 56K dialup link and is running userland ppp with the -auto and
-nat flags.  TIMEOUT is 300.  I thought I was pretty safe, but
evidently not.

here's what I have done:
1.  disabled inetd from starting.
2.  disabled portmapper from starting.
sockstats only shows syslogd listening.

is this sufficient ?  Also, has anyone come up with a way to prevent
Outlook from keeping the link up?  The users are forever forgetting
to shut it down on their machines and thus the link is kept alive
even when everyone's gone home.  Would it be smart to have cron
shutdown/restart the ppp process so its only available during 
business hours ?

I'm still plowing through firewall rules, so I'm not ready to
implement a firewall yet.

thanks,
Darryl

I've noticed alot of people who use the fdimage program running into 
this. You might want to try rawrite instead.

I have same problem.  I have a Web-server where the webmaster should
have write-access to all files, while local web-editors should only
have write-access to limited areas.

All file-access is via SMB (Samba).

Does anyone have any good ideas?

How can RAM cause this? everything else was working fine on the box, just the
network card stopped responding. We had faulty RAM in the past, and the box would
panic/crash. It didn't crash or panic this time.

Thanks,
Simon

Folks, I need to use Router Alert. 

* Is there any documentation for using Router Alert in the FreeBSD
  environement.
* Are there specific options that the Kernel must be compiled with?
* I know in Linux there is a IP_ROUTER_ALERT option that can be applied by
Root users to IP sockets to intercept all forwarded packets with  the
Router Alert option. Does it work similarly for FreeBSD.

Check for the IP sendmail queries, add it to the machines /etc/hosts 
file, then pray the IP never changes.
Don't forget to configure the resolver to search the hosts file before 
querying DNS.

Alternatively, start a caching-only namerserver, have ppp block DNS 
queries, or hack sendmail.cf to not issue DNS queries. All of those 
possibilities carry other consequences, thus I implemented the above 
mentioned solution at home.

I wouldn't know - I'm always amazed the hardware work at all, what
with my grey thumb. However, when the system works, you add X and it
quits working, X *has* to be the most likely suspect. That seems more
likely than that you've managed to break the NIC and/or cable
somehow. That's true even if I was doing the hardware. Hence the
logical next step is to pull the RAM and see if the problem goes away.

Recalling other conversations, it's possible that you've overloaded
the system bus in some way, and that's the problem. In which case, the
correct next step is still to pull the extra ram (or part of it) and
see if the problem goes away. If it does, try it with more ram each
time until it fails. You'll have just found the load limit of your
motherboard.

Hi,

I've noticed a problem with the 4.1.1-R and 4.2-R CD's that we have... When
you boot then in an HP LPR, via it's "Remote Admin" port, everything goes fine
- until you get to the blue-background sysinstall utility, at which point -
you lose the keyboard...

This is on machines with no keyboard of their own, i.e. they use the 'ghosted'
keyboard provided by the HP Remote Admin card in the machine...

Booting with / without "-P" seems to make no difference... The keyboard works
during the kernel config, it's only once sysinstall has loaded that it seems
to stop working...

Unfortunately I can't get a dmesg output (as I don't have a keyboard) - has
anyone come across this before? - or can offer any workarounds?

Regards,

Karl Pielorz

I just ran CVSUP and something doesn't seem right.  I configured the
cvsup-conf file as follows:

default base=/usr
default prefix=/usr/local/etc/cvsup

After several hours of downloading it just shows a whole but of created
files no edits, checkout, rsync,etc.  Is this right?  I don't understand how
the /usr/local/etc/cvsup gets merged into the right stuff.

Hi,

Where can I find some good-resolution big-size color digital version of
the FreeBSD logo? (to print and hang it at my workplace)


Thanks,

Hi,

I apologize if this has been discussed, but I searched the archives and
could not find any mention of it, at least specifically for 4.2.

rpc.lockd does not appear to work when the freebsd box is acting as an nfs
fileserver and a solaris 7 client attempts to lock a file (specifically
with cadence, a CAD app.)

I realize that in /etc/defaults/rc.conf rpc.lockd is commented as being
broken, but there is not mention of this in the man page, or what, if any,
functionality lockd currently has.

Finding that this does not work is quite depressing to me, as I just
convinced my company to move from a linux 2.4 (yuck) nfs server that was
causing problems, guaranteeing that freebsd would do a much better
job.  Unfortunately I'll never get the chance to prove this, as I had to
quickly fall back to the linux system early this morning since file
locking is essential to my users' applications.

$egg->face = 1;

Hey people,

Just downloaded the full release of Linux NS6, and it seems to work
reasonably
well.  However, I cannot get plugins working...  I downloaded FlashPlayer
and 
a Java thing, put them in the netscape6/plugins directory (under
/usr/compat/
linux/usr/local/), but they don't get picked up upon restart.  I have also
tried
making symlinks to the Flashplayer installed under Linux NS 4.73, but no go,
and I have also tried symlinks at various other locations - all to no avail.

All I get from about:plugins is the default.  Each time I go to a java-based
or
Flash-based site, I am prompted (again) to download and install...

Anyone managed to get plugins working?  I have had a look through the list
archives, and the NS 6 release notes, but can't find anything that helps...

Yes, it has been discussed several times. Both on -questions and on -stable.
Search harder next time.

It is just a dummy implementation that basically says "Sure, have a lock"
whenever an application asks for a lock, but without doing any actual
locking.
The only reason for using it is if you have an application that insists on
getting a lock without really needing it.

Thats only the start of the problems your about to encounter. I've noticed
problems such as netscape posting forms incorrectly and all around acting
more weirdly than normal. I switched back to 4.72.

EEK!  I'm beginning to think along those lines myself...

Oh well, just thought I'd try it.  No harm done...

Thats only the start of the problems your about to encounter. I've noticed
problems such as netscape posting forms incorrectly and all around acting
more weirdly than normal. I switched back to 4.72.

    LOCALE, I believe.  You need to set it to "de" or something like
that (you may need "de_CH" or "de_DE" -- have a look in
/usr/share/locale).  By default, it's "C", which is a synonym for US
English.

I am on a fresh 4.2-RELEASE machine with the current ports sup'd down.

The GLIB port installed with no problems. However when I got into the
GTK port, the following happens:

$ make
...
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.8... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding GLIB or finding the wrong
*** version of GLIB. If it is not finding GLIB, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location  Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that
*** is required on your system

So, being the inquisitive type, I investigate. I create a "conftest.c" 
file like the one in configure, called "conft.c". I then proceed to
compile this with the following line:

cc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -I/usr/local/include/glib12 -D_THREAD_SAFE
-DLINUXTHREADS conft.c -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-E -lgmodule12 -lgthread12
-lglib12 -lpthread

Already, I see no "-pthread" switch so I know this may be kinda bogus.
The interesting thing comes when I see this:

$ ./conftest
Bus error (core dumped)
$ gdb ./conftest
GNU gdb 4.18
...
This GDB was configured as "i386-unknown-freebsd"...
(gdb) r
Starting program: /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/gtk12/work/gtk+-1.2.8/./conftest 

Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error.
0x28112d67 in isatty () from /usr/lib/libc.so.4
(gdb) bt
#0  0x28112d67 in isatty () from /usr/lib/libc.so.4

#4  0x80486a5 in main () at conft.c:16
#5  0x80485f5 in _start ()

Quite odd. Anyone have a clue as to what is going on here?

My card was in the database (Diamond Stealth III S540)

Any suggestions on how to get the resolution to be a
little more resonable?

Please let us know if this can be fixed.  I too have this problem.  So
what do you guys think.  Should we get rid of that 2940 card now???
Thanks

	This is more of an Xfree86 issue so I recommend checking their
site too.  The TNT2 has only generic support (ie not specifically card by
card.) that may or may not work well for that card.  I would personally
recommend against it though.   I have a cardex Riva TNT2 M64 and the best
resolution I can get in X is 800x600 even though the card and monitor can
do 1600x1200.  I've heard the M64 is a "weaker" version of the TNT2 so
that may be part of the problem.  
	I want a card that works better, so I'm going to search through
XFree86's site and mailing lists and find the cheapest card I can that is
well supported and try that.  FWIW Matrox cards are supposed to work
really well with XFree86, I just don't see any very cheap yet.

I have followed the directions for adding truetype font support to the
letter.  I have been over the document several times and am quite sure I
have done everything.  I am a somewhat experienced user.  However, I do
not appear to have any of my installed ttf fonts available to any of my
x applications.  Should someone check this document for accuracy?

Dear all,

Thank you for your guidance. I was nowhere near asking someone to do the
research for me but just a direction to point to. I think I got what I
needed for now, and you gave me what you could.
James, George, and Tim,  thank you for your help.
James, you asked a tempting question that if I wanted more information I
should ask. So, here is it:  My question is just about a high level
architecture of the memory, and a hint or two about the paging and
segmentation's way of working. Are they close to the any Unix version that
Sun provides. Can I just go to Sun's site and find out about these?
I have found a book on FreeBSD but it is just about the installation and the
use of it. 
I hope that I am not disturbing anyone by posting these messages. If I am,
please give me a hint to stop.

Thanks again,

Esfandiar

What version of glib do you have?  I had an issue with some silly
back-compatibility failure in glib that caused the program to test if
my version was new enough to dump core.  Not a very good test, eh?

Try upgrading to the lates glib manually, and then see if it works
fine.

	No.  Try Netbsd  www.netbsd.org or OpenBSD  www.openbsd.org    But
be careful, the nubus may not be supported by either.  I don't know about
that.

While recently attempting to add packages to my box, from the main ftp site
(ftp.freebsd.org).
I received the following error.

Warning! Can't CD to "4.0-Release" on this server.

This site is the one I always used to install previous packages.

what's happened?

I think the only *nixish thing that runs on the NuBus macs is MkLinux. I
don't know if MkLinux is still actively being developed. But if you want to
take a look at it, you should be able to get it from LinuxPPC. See
especially:
http://www.mklinux.org/

And try mpg123 from the command line (to save the memory x uses and look
at the -b option from the mpg123 manpage to increase the buffering that
Edwin was talking about.  Try using the maximum amount that you can of
available memory.
	Also try renice as somebody else suggested or nice to start the
player.
man renice
man nice

Yes it will, normally. In the man pages, login.conf(5) says:

  Capabilities that set environment variables are scanned for both `~' and
  `$' characters, which are substituted for a user's home directory and
  name respectively.

Forgot to mention, I already tried that. Same result.

I don't see any evidence that mail.local is being invoked at all.

I don't see the connection between an interactive shell's environment and
the environment that is set by env(1) in /var/qmail/boot/home. The latter
is just for qmail-send when it is delivering mail. This script makes no
reference to mail.local anyway.

The problem is not where the mail is going (we want it to go into
~/Mailbox, like it is), rather it is just the fact that the $MAIL variable
is being set to /var/mail/foo for users who login and want to check their
mail with a client that relies on this variable (e.g., elm).

Not sure what happened there, but I'm using a Diamond Viper 770 Ultra
(32MB) and X works beautifully here. No resolution limitation such as
you described.

I have a similar situation with my home network: a network behind NAT, IPSEC
transport between the NAT host and another host (over the Internet in this
case), but hosts behind the NAT host cannot talk to the other host.

I was thinking this is because IPSec only processes packets originating from
the machine it is running on, not packets being gateway'd.  I can't run IPSEC
in tunnel mode because I don't have a security gateway and private network on
the other host.

I've thought of running a ppp tunnel, but haven't worked out the ipfw config
and would prefer a solution less kludgey.

The only other thing to do is open up your firewall to let those packets
in... something like this:

add 4000 pass tcp from any to 111.111.111.111 5555 #gw1 only
add 4000 pass udp from any to 111.111.111.111 5555 #gw1 only
add 4000 pass ip from any to any via tun0


That should do it.

	No.  Try Netbsd  www.netbsd.org or OpenBSD  www.openbsd.org    But
be careful, the nubus may not be supported by either.  I don't know about
that.

I don't mind putting some effort in it, but I have next to no experience with 
device drivers, especially soundcards.  So any advice how to start is 
welcome.  

Isn't it possible to just use the old pcm driver instead ? or the snd driver ?

I looked at the card, it says: Turtle Beach Systems - Tropez Plus - Rev C
with following major chips:
Crystal CS4232-KQ
Yamaha YSS225-F
WaveFront ICS2116Y
WaveFront ICS2115V

Hi,

We're running a 4.1-RELEASE web server that is serving a whole-lotta-traffic.
At one point, the route table grew to the maximum it was allowed, 64260K.
According to route monitor, there were a lot of "RTM_MISS"s - I don't know
what that means exactly.

Anyways, after doing a "route flush" and then re-adding the default route,
the route table started from scratch and is continuing to grow, now at 92361
entries (12.9 megs). It's going to get 64MB again, and it's going to start
dropping incoming connections.

This problem generates many errors per second in the Apache error_log:

[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname
[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname
[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname
[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname
[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname
[Mon Dec  4 13:41:38 2000] [error] (54)Connection reset by peer: getsockname

Has anyone else seen this problem? Could the radix tree be getting too
full for the route expiration process to function properly?

	Ok, I don't know what asking for Linux compatability at install time
	does. You need to do two things, though: 1) enable the kernel API
	support for Linux, and install the linux_base port.

	That would indicate that the linux_base port was installed. You
might
	verify that /compat is a symlink to /usr/compat, or /compat/linux is
a
	symlink to /usr/compat/linux.

	> *	Next I edited the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file and added

	You should *never* touch anything in /etc/defaults/. Those files
hold
	default values for things you set in files in /etc. In this case,
	/etc/rc.conf - which should have had LINUX_ENABLE="yes" added by the
	install process.

	It doesn't look like the Linux module is statically linked.  You
	should try loading it by hand, though. Try running "/sbin/kldload
	linux", then check the console error messages. If Linux is already
	already loaded, it will say "module linux already present" or words
to
	that effect. If it's wasn't loaded, and the module exists, that will
	load it for you. If you can't get it loaded, you won't be able to
get
	them to run.

	Care to provide the exact text of the message you got from running
	"linux"? There are a number of things that can be interpreted as
	saying the module was unknown, but don't mean that.

	Um - if you have the linux module loaded, it will check
	/compat/linux/lib before it checks /lib. If you managed to overwrite
	FreeBSD libraries with their Linux version, your system is going to
be
	*very* flaky.

	Binaries? In a lib directory? Where in the manual does it say that?

Hmm, what should it be? I'll try to experiment with my network settings
then. And here's my ``ppp.conf'' by the way; does anything look strange
here?

I have never changed the routing table manually, so if anything is out

 ohhh ok.

How about setting /etc/csh.cshrc or /etc/profile to set $MAIL every time the
user logs in?

I don't see any evidence that mail.local is being invoked at all.

I don't see the connection between an interactive shell's environment
and
the environment that is set by env(1) in /var/qmail/boot/home. The
latter
is just for qmail-send when it is delivering mail. This script makes no
reference to mail.local anyway.

The problem is not where the mail is going (we want it to go into
~/Mailbox, like it is), rather it is just the fact that the $MAIL
variable
is being set to /var/mail/foo for users who login and want to check
their
mail with a client that relies on this variable (e.g., elm).

When moving windows around in gnome enlightenment and playing xmms at the
same time, I get a scratching noise. Does anybody know what this is?
It seems to do it on earlier releases too. I have the 4.2 release
and a AWE64 sound card. I added the lines "device pcm" to my kernel, if that
helps anybody. Thanks in advance for any help.

The Nov 2000 issue from Linux Journal on page 144 has an article about GNU
Queue (www.gnuqueue.org), software to submit jobs to a cluster etc.

You could also check out the "Beowulf-HOWTO" at www.linuxdoc.org. Beowulf
is the clustering of Linux machines developed at Nasa.

Have not played with all this stuff personally, just know it exists.

It should be possible to restart while the volume is mounted.  I've
heard sporadic reports of problems in this area, but I haven't been
able to substantiate them.  Certainly there will be no problems if
you're only reading from the file system.

I'm installing FreeBSD 4.0 on my PC.  I go through the standard
installation, and set up a 100Mb root directory, a 260Mb swap directory, and
a 9.5Gb /usr directory.  When it gets where it's going to start installing
the OS, it gives me this error:



"Warning!  Unable to swap /dev/ab0s2b:  Device not configured.  This may
cause the installation to fail at some point if you don't have alot of
memory."

When continue i get this:

"Unable to make root file system on /dev/ad0s1a!  Command returned status
1."

When I hit enter:

"Couldn't make filesystems properly.  Aborting"

It then goes back to the /stand/sysinstall Main Menu.



Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I'm trying to set up AMD at the office to auto mount some file systems, most
notably my home directory...

The information is passed via the NIS map auto_home. The format is:

server:/path_to_disk/userid

So, for example, if my username was Bob, and my home directory was on frob, it
may look like (when I ypcat auto_home...):

frob:/users/Bob

My problem is that I guess I just don't get the way to talk AMD in to a.)
using this information, and b.) then mapping it in to something useful. I've
read the reference manual available on cornell.edu, but they seem to be a 
little bit thin on various examples.

If anyone could shoot a sample file and/or walk me through it, I'd greatly
appreciate it. I'd normally play with it, but I'm banging my head trying to
recover from getting back in the office after two weeks off. Thanks...

	-Brian

Hiya all,
I am a CLI freak. I wanna squeaze more lines into my screen, hopefully 
something like 80x50 line text mode. Does anyone know how to do this on 
a 4.1.1 system?

vidcontrol -f 8x8 iso-8x8
vidcontrol 80x50

I prefer the swiss-8x8 font and VGA_90x50 myself.

Hi,


I'm trying to do an SSH tunnel through a FreeBSD server 
running natd to a CVS server listening to a pserver on
it's local interface.

I have managed to get this working from a routeable IP,
but when I attempt to set up a tunnel from a non-routeable
that is being NAT'd, the non-routeable machine opens the
port ( 2401 ) but it doesn't seem to make it to the other
side ( the CVS server outside the NAT firewall ).

Is there a special consideration for SSH tunnels through
NAT that I am not understanding? Is it actually possible? :)

Thanks, and please reply to me directly as I am subscribed
to the list from this account.

I think  allowing incoming finger requests is a bad idea securitywise. 

To enable finger you have to check if it is enabled in your "inetd.conf"
file and possibly adjust your "/etc/hosts.allow" file.
According to "man finger" you could put your PGP key in a ".plan" file in
your home directory.

The book "Building Internet Firewalls" has a few recommendations for
running a finger service on page 588.

BTW does the Singapore government allow you to to use PGP?

Hiya everyone,

Does anyone know how to configure FreeBSD to use a MTA on a remote box. 
i.e I want to use another SMTP server (either another box at my site or 
my ISPs) and not sacrifice functionality by losing use of the "mail" 
command or the daily "Charlie Root" reports. I don't think it should be 
necessary to run sendmail on every FreeBSD box at our site...surely?

Did you just make a directory named swap? The swap is supposed to be a
partition of type 'swap'...

Almost forgot - I did an update after the first announcement, to
change the background to transparent. If you're not getting a
transparent background, you have the older one.

Ian, if that's the one you've got, let me know so I can flag the size
difference as well.

Hello,

Does anyone know what the reason for the following may be?

PPp ON turtle> TCP/IP: bundle_SetRoute failure:
TCP/IP: bundle_SetRoute:  Cmd =3D Add!
TCP/IP: bundle_SetRoute:  Dst =3D 0.0.0.0
TCP/IP: bundle_SetRoute:  Gateway =3D 130.67.69.0
TCP/IP: bundle_SetRoute:  Mask =3D 0.0.0.0
Warning: Add! route failed: 0.0.0.0: errno: Illegal seek

It happens with the 'add default HISADDR' setting in version 2.26 of
ppp.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Are Bryne

I'll have a crash dump and a backtrace for this problem if anyone wants to
see it. I have a machine waiting to crash when I hit it with some disk
activity. It has DDB in it's kernel, and I have it set to dump to a swap
partition so I can look at the crash dump too.

Hi Rob --

Let me first qualify this by saying that I haven't tried NAT on
FreeBSD, so my advance abject apologies if there's something
particular about FreeBSD's implementation which renders my response
here irrelevant.  However, in principle, tunneling through NAT works
ok. I use the SSH Communications server and client, and can do this
from a Linux workstation through a Linux NAT gateway.  I run this
command on the workstation:

ssh -L 2300:remotehost:23 remotehost

and log in as usual.  Then on the workstation, do:

telnet localhost 2300

And I connect to remotehost via the tunnel.  This works with any
service I choose.  I don't know anything about the internals of CVS,
so perhaps if it uses a two-way connection (like ftp), this might not
work.

I hope this is of some use to you.

Reinstallation is not a way to solve problems.  Starting from your
present installation, you should change one thing at a time.

This is the correct approach.  It's probably a known (but
unidentified) bug in the APM code.  It's possible to disable APM in
UserConfig, but past experience suggests that this will not fix the
problem: you must build a kernel with no APM support.

I've got a bunch of older machines running FreeBSD, some of them offsite.  
What with the raw speed of my newer machines, I like building world and
ports on the fastest machine, then NFS-exporting them to other machines to
install.  This works well with build/installworld, after sharing /usr/src
and /usr/obj.  It works well with Ports by sharing /usr/ports, _if_ the
port in question doesn't have dependencies.

So, is it possible to build ports on the master machine, such that if it
requires a dependency, the master will build, but not install the
dependency, and later the end-user machine can install both the primary
port and the dependancies needed?  I really don't want to be cluttering up
the master machine with all sorts of ports that I don't need, when I'm
only building them for the slower clients.

Also, the Ports don't seem to honor NOMAN=true in /etc/make.conf.  Is
there any other option to tell ports not to install man pages?  There's
one in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk, NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES, but from the
description and makefile code, it seems to apply only to limited
situations.

In fact, in an ideal world, I'd like to install the manpages and
buildtime-only dependancies on just the master machine, and install only
the runtime binaries/configurations on the client machines, just to keep
everything nice and clean...

Ken

I have never used IRC, but it seems to be listed everywhere I look. So, I
figured it's about time I learn.

However, after perusing the ports collection, I see that there a just too
many choices. Can someone suggest a starting point, i.e., which IRC to
install first?

xchat is probably the easiest and most intuitive.

	Alfred, can you provide more info on this?  In ports the only
things I see are clusterit-1.3 and pvm.  Clusterit may work,
but it's webpage at http://www.inficad.com/~garbled/clusterit.html
doesn't even mention FreeBSD as being one of the OS's it works on.  Pvm
is what the Purdue ACME system uses.  I may be wrong, but I seem to
remember reading that they had to modify it a lot.  Are there other
clustering tools you know of?   Do you know what the gohan ports building
machines are clustered with?  Any info would be appreciated, 

						Thank you,
						Tim

hi i remember there being some discussion when FreeBSD 4.2 was released that
it changed the /etc/passwd encryption from DES to MD5 or vice versa or
something...

I am trying to use the `checkpasswd' port so I can use qmail-pop3d. Having
run through some pretty basic diagnostics it appears that checkpasswd fails
to authenticate a valid user found in /etc/passwd.

(namely running `qmail-popup' to call `checkpasswd' and then after
`checkpasswd' authenticates, it calls `pwd' so it lists the directory).
this process fails the authentication step which means that `checkpasswd' is
failing

Is this because of the password scheme change from 4.1 to 4.2 or something
else? everything has been installed by default from ports.
the smtp and local parts of qmail works flawlessly and delivers stuff
straight to Maildir.

Hi there,

            Is your /etc/password using MD5 or DES? does the first char of
the password starts with a $ sign in the passwd file ( which means it is
using MD5).

Topic: Network Administrator DoS vulnerabilities

Overview: A class of vulnerabilities has been discovered, and the name LMAO
is being used to describe them as a group.  The LMAO vulnerabilities are
weaknesses in the way that Razor restates the obvious and gets media
attention.

Affected Systems:  Any and all Network Administrators who read Razor
Advisories.

Impact: By depriving the Network Administrator's brain of oxygen for an
extended period of time, the admin's mental abilities may be reduced to
levels even lower than their usual substandard state.  This could result in
even more work time spent on IRC than usual.

Background:

DoS
A denial of service attack is a purposeful action to significantly degrade
the quality and/or availability of services a system offers.

DoS->OS
Oxygen Starvation is a type of denial of service attack.

DoS->OS->LAUGHING_STATE
The Network Administrator has a diaphragm, which when exposed to Razor
advisories, may activate uncontrollably causing possibly very serious damage
due to lack of oxygen to the brain and possibly even more serious injures if
the situation is severe enough to warrant a ROFL, because the transition
from LMAO to LMFAO to ROFL usually involves the subject falling out of his
or her chair.

Details:
LMAO is a demonstration of an efficient DoS->OS->LAUGHING_STATE exploit.  It
is efficient because it does not use traditional humor, involving things
that are actually funny.  Unlike a real joke, Razor Advisories are
represented as being serious, which can actually increase the damage done to
the Network Administrator.  Here are a few examples of the many possible
LMAO weaknesses:

    - FreeBSD Administrators, when told that too many connections to a port
will consume resources, are immediately rendered useless as they quickly
fall into the LMFAO state, very possibly resulting in a tipped chair,
dumping the Admin onto the floor and there is even a remote possibility that
the Admin's soft drink of choice is spilled on the floor, resulting in
damages to the Administrator in the amount of $0.50 to $1.00 or more
depending on how cheap the owners of said Administrator's company are.

    - Novel Netware Administrators, when told they are 45 years old, they
have no life, and are using a product that should be quietly put to death,
usually begin crying and are inconsolable for hours.  The reason this
qualifies as a LMAO attack is although the Netware Administrator is crying,
all of the other Administrators who've been silently laughing at him for
years are DoSed and unable to do their jobs resulting in a SMURF style LMAO
attack.

    - Windows 2000 Administrators, usually MCSEs, are too busy trying to
figure out what they paid $5,000 for and playing Solitaire to notice Razor
Advisories.  They seem to be invulnerable to this type of attack unless the
Advisory is emailed to them with a VBS Trojan attachment.

Recommendations:

Unfortunately, most Administrators are vulnerable to LMAO attacks, and until
some ignorance patches come out, there is very little that can be done
outside of normal hiccup resolution practices.  We do have a few
recommendations:

    1. Limit the amount of humorous emails the Administrator receives,
because if the Administrator already has the hiccups when reading a Razor
Advisory, the results can be fatal.

    2. Limit who can speak to the Administrator using office partitions to
avoid office humor.

    3. Call the ISP and ask them to upstream filter all razor.bindview.com
packets.

    4. Replace the tile floors in the office with shag carpet for a much
softer landing in the event of a LMFAO escalating to a ROFL.

    5. Make certain that emergency hiccup stations are functioning properly,
that the Administrator may quickly have a drink of water after reading Razor
Advisories.

Subj: V4.2 and Adaptec AIC 7870 problems
To:   FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.org
From: raymond@one.com.au

I have a DECpc XL Server 466 (a 486) with an Adaptec AIC7870 SCSI
adaptor on the mother board.

This machine works with Version 4.0 (and earlier).

When I boot up Version 4.2, I get:

ahc0: brkadrint, Scratch or SCB Memory Parity Error at seqaddr = 0x1
followed by a reboot.

Version 4.1.1 behaved in a similar fashion.

Any ideas?

Hi folks -

I managed to get boot messages displayed to the serial console, but
then the login prompt goes to the internal console.  No opportunity is
given for login to the serial console except during the boot process.  
When I interrupt the boot for a prompt, and do "show", I see
console=comconsole, which looks promising; completing the boot
displays all messages to serial, then terminates its output with a
date string, and then no response.  login: then appears on the
internal console. That's about all I know.

Can anyone shed light?  I've tried -P, -h, and -Dh alternately in
/boot.config, same results.  This is FBSD 4.0.  I'm working on
upgrading to 4.2, but the downloads are squortchy(tm) right now.

Thank you -d

Its being fixed. Some don't reboot but loop with that message flying by
too fast to read. As for myself, the problem only happen(ed) on the
first time after cold boot. 2nd boot is fine.

Hi there,

            Is your /etc/password using MD5 or DES? does the first char
of
the password starts with a $ sign in the passwd file ( which means it is
using MD5).

Is ttyd0 marked 'off' in /etc/ttys?  It is by default.  If it is,
change 'off' to 'on' to make it look like this:

  ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   cons25  on  secure

(yes, I changed dialup->cons25, you don't have to if you don't want
to)

Note that this won't stop a login prompt from showing up on the
internal console.  You can have both.  If you don't want it, mark
v0-v7 'off' in /etc/ttys.

Once you're done with your modifications to /etc/ttys, either reboot
or send sighup to init (`kill -1 1`).

Hopefully that wasn't too confusing..

I have searched the mailing lists and most e-mail seem to say increase 
the maxuser variable in the kernel config file, but I already have
it set to 512.  Should I increase the  nmbclusters size to 4096?

I'm just a dumb newbie, so I might be totally wrong, but 64.229.84.85 
looks an awful like a Class A address. If it is, the netmask s/b 255.0.0.0 
or 0xff000000. Somebody horse-whip me if I'm out-to-lunch here....

Hi,
I'm have an iMac G3 running Mac OS X.

Is it possible to use Iomega Zip 100 using the driver for BSD?

Any clue would be of great help.
Thanks a lot,
Lizardo.

Hi.  I'm trying to install FreeBSD via ftp over a PCI Modem or a USB Modem.
I have both and they work "magically" under Windows.

But there doesn't seem to be a place where I can find out how to configure
these devices BEFORE installing FreeBSD.

Know what I mean?  I can't install via FTP because my modem isn't properly
configured, but I can't configure it until ....

I've searched the man pages but those all seem to be discreet pieces of
information about one particular topic.  I can find USB but I can't find
modem, and so forth.

Please advise.

 Many PCI modems are so-called 'winmodems'. These are technically referred
to as HSP or Host-Signal-Processing modems. They require special drivers
which hook into the CPU to do the signal processing necesarry for modulation
and demodulation.  These drivers are written specifically for windows, and
many other OSes can not use them, hence the term "winmodem".
Many companies refuse to release specification data which results in the
situation that no one can write unix/linux drivers for them.

One thing to test if your modem is compatible with linux or FreeBSD is to
see if you can boot to PURE DOS mode (that is, hit F8 before "Starting
Windows 9x" appears. Use a terminal emulator like procomm or something. Try
to see if the software can dial out using DOS.

If it can, then FreeBSD should pick up a PCI Serial controller and then you
can check the bootup messages and select the correct serial port to use for
PPP.

If your modem doesn't work in DOS, you are SOL. Such is the nature of
"Windows Only" hardware...

I have no idea of how USB modems work, I don't own one and have never used
one.

Nope. But maybe I'm just expecting more modes than I can get. I can
get 80x25, 80x30, 80x50 and 80x60 to work (modes 24, 30, 32, and 34 
respectively). But these are the only text modes shown when I do a 
"vidcontrol -i mode". I can't get more than 80 columns, and the graphic
screen savers won't work ("the console does not support M_VGA_CG320").
vidcontrol shows 15bpp, 16bpp, 24bpp and 32bpp 320x200 modes; perhaps
the screen savers are 8bpp?

I guess it makes sense I can't get 132 column modes, as even with an 8
pixel wide font a horizontal resolution of 1024 only makes 128 columns.

"vidcontrol VESA_<anything>" fails which is why I was confused about the
VESA capabilities of the ATI Rage Mobility. This includes VESA_800x600
(and yes, I do have "option SC_PIXEL_MODE" in the kernel config).

regards
Gram

FreeBSD team,


   Last night, I was installing FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE use floopy disks. After 
booting, then hang (I was downloaded the FreeBSD from www.kiarchive.ru ).
Are you have kernel loader program (like file fbsdboot.exe on FreeBSD 2.2.8-
RELEASE). If you had one, may you give it to (you can send it by attach it on 
your mail). Or if you know a site that have kernel loader for FreeBSD 4.0-
RELEASE, please tell me.

I never understood the reasoning behind each user having their own
group (with their login name).  Does anyone use this to their
advantage?  A huge "user" or "users" group that each user belongs to
was always the way to go for me.

Perhaps it just too early in the morning for me to see it...
coffee....

Okay,
I used the routine defined in 'man md' to initialised the ram disk:

disklabel -r -w md0 auto && \
newfs /dev/md0c && \
mount /dev/md0c  /ftp  && \
chmod 1777 /ftp

the response is :
'disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Inappropriate ioctl for device
 disklabel: auto: unknown disk type'

I have two files in the directory /ftp. I would like mount /ftp as a RAM disk containing my two files.
Thanks for your help
Gilles

Use MFS - and MFS is a memory file system.  It will still swap to disk if
you dont have enough ram to hold it all.

You make their home directories be owned by their personal group
(e.g. mph:mph) and you create groups for collaborative projects to
which several users belong.  Directories with project files are owned
by the project group (e.g. mph:project69).  The users run with
umask 002 and everything's group writable.

The result is that the files in the project's directory are writable
by the correct group without the user having to explictly set umask
or permissions.  The files in the user's home directory are writable only
by him, because there's nobody else in his personal group.

Hi,
 Iam Parthasarathi,I have 2 hard disks in my system.1st hard disk =
contaions 2 partions(win98 and Nt respectively),2nd hard disk contains =
one dos partion which is the first partion in that disk and the 2nd =
partion is freebsd.=20
I have installed FreeBSD but not able to load it.as The bootmanager is =
not getting loaded.I tried these options:

1.after installation, I tried the option bootinst boot.bin..but that did =
not work it shows cannot overwrite bootsav.bin in disk0 and for second =
drive also it shows cannot overwrite boot2sav.bin.

2.Second option was I reinstalled freebsd and when it asks for boot =
manager I chose the first hard disk but in this case it did not do =
anything after the post test(blue screen of configuration).So I did =
fdisk /mbr and then activated the first partion of the first hard disk =
so now I can load 98 and NT(as NT loader gives that option) but how do I =
load freebsd.

I thought there are two options to this either I load boot manager or =
there shoild be some other way that I can load freebsd when need??

Pls advise soon.
Thanks and Brgds
Partha

Makes sense in a backwards sort of way, but if a sysadmin can't teach
users how to use chmod, then he probably deserves the punishment of
dealing with more than 16 groups.  That is definately chmod's calling.

...but I never thought of this case.

Hi men of goodwill,
I would like to rebuild my disk slice/partition. I've taken a full backup
and I already have a fixit floppy. I am not sure how to go about
this. What I would like to do is to clean the partition on which FreeBSD
is, reslice and then restore.

May someone kindly point me to where this is detailed. I'd like to
simulate a scenario where the system has gone corupted and the only otion
I have is restore from tape. The tape will be accessed from another host
on the same LAN since this host I am restoring has no tape drive.
I will use restore to recover / /usr /var...

Thanks in advance.

 -Wash

Hi all,

On upgrading from 4.1-STABLE to 4.2-STABLE I get the following error during
make
installworld:

===> gnu/usr.bin/groff/devkoi8-r
Making R
bc: not found
*** Error code 127



bc is working fine and is in my path. I'm sure it is something stupid on my
part
but I can't see what!

TIA,

Sprite is an offspring of BSD designed as a distributed operating system. It
works over a LAN, with process migration to processors not in use. It was
developed by John Ousterhout and others at the CSRG, Berkeley. Sadly it has
not been maintained for about 6 years and needs porting to modern hardware.

Rumor has it that the Linux with outstanding clustering ability is
Turbolinux. Somebody better qualified than I am might like to try cloning to
FreeBSD the clustering architecture of Turbolinux.

The clustering that TurboLinux does doesn't seem to be the sort of
clustering Tim is looking for.  TurboLinux seems to be going for
high-availability while libraries like mpich/pvm/clusterit are designed
for distributing CPU workloads amongst several nodes.

The clustering the Sprite offers seems to be what he could use, 
but as you said it's been sort of dead for 6 years now. :(

No, get the 4.2 CDrom, the 4.0 CDroms were made before the RSA
patent expired, hence no crypto for you with 4.0.

4.2 has ssh in the base system.

If there's no natural grouping of users, doing this makes it possible
for a user to share their files with other users without sharing with
everyone or creating a new group. On the other hand, if you want to
share different sets of files with two groups of other users, you need
multiple groups anyway. To make proper use of this, you need a too
users can use to edit "their" /etc/group entry. Possibly a linux
distro has such a tool.

The thing is, doing this with one large group doesn't solve Dmitry's
problem, which is that he wants to be able to access the files without
giving everyone else access to them.

What is needed here is Access Control Lists, which exist on many Unices.
This is the solution to your problem ! Does BSD support these ?

Hi,

I just tried to do this:

kill -9 -1

on my FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE workstation and the console died. I could ssh to
my machine and do a "startx" which brought back the video signal to the
screen. 

But as soon as I shut X down, the video-signal went the same way. How can
I bring back the console without having to reboot?

Best regards
Rasmus

Hello,
I would like to transfer file via libfetch.
If I transfer a file from a "fetch" command:
fetch "ftp://ftp:ftp@myhost:21/myfile", the file "myfile"
is transfered in the current directory.
Il I use the function FetchGetURL (), the file is not transfered.
I don't understand why ?
Can I change the transferred file name with libfetch ?
Thanks
Gilles

While running both squid and samba om the same box I get warning messages
that I'm running out of filedescriptors.

How can I bump up the current value of 1024 with kernel configuration
options? (That is hardcoding the settings in kernel, not using sysctl)

Regards

Increase maxusers in the kernel config file.

try hitting ctrl+f1 for the vt1 ctrl+f2 for vt2, etc... ctrl+f8 is the
gui screen, as you can see in /etc/ttys. if you wanted to make
xdm/wdm/kdm start at boot, so you don't need to startx, then that's
the file you would need to edit. if so, make it so that it looks like
this:
ttyv8   "/usr/X11R6/bin/wdm -nodaemon"  xterm   on secure
you can replace wdm with your *dm of choice

Hello world :)

yes, I am having this problem also.

the only solution is an unofficial patch.

Hi all.

I was wondering if anyone could help me to make a cronjob with csh.
Ive made a VI-file containing a list of filenames.
I want to make an executable script with /bin/csh, wich i want to use to take backups of the files ive typed in the VI-file.

Anoyne know where i can get more info on csh.?!

Im running IPSO, and bash etc is not available, only /bin/csh is.

/thanks, Hans

You probably mean ALT+F1 .. etc? That doesn't help. If X is not started
there is no video-signal to the screen - "the console is dead".

And thanks, but I don't want a window thingy to start at boot time.


Best regards

Exatly two weeks later the same problem occured: machine is pingable
but I can't login any more, webserver does a connect but nothing
comes back, etc:

Looks like Perl is killing me. Any suggestion to restrict the
Perl stuff ?

Or look at example:

set path=(/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin)

mount /backup/data

foreach f ( `cat /etc/backup/dirlist` )

Hi alll,

if I want to reuse a socket, when should I call setsockopt() with
SO_REUSEADDR?  Before or after bind()?  Before or after listen()?

thanks,
Jonathon

Hi pals
I have a tape on which I did full system backup - /, /usr and /var
I did dump to /dev/nrsa0 for / and /usr and finally to /dev/rsa0 for /var.
Now I need help restoring only /var.
Pls help me on how to go about this.

Thanks.

Well, I've had this problem with avifile.  The only way I've been able
to unwedge
the sound driver is to play something with splay (in the ports).  Splay
will 
sound like white noise (but you can ^C it).  After you stop it, your
sound
driver should be working again.

	If you mean just want to take the driver file and install it in
the right place in MacOSX, certainly no, that will not work.  Drivers are
either in the kernel or interface directly with it.  That means they must
be written only fro the kernel that they work on.  MacOSX uses a mach
kernel with a FreeBSD userland "covering" if you will.  They call it
darwin.  You would have to either dig into the code and port that driver
yourself, or more likely re-write it.  Somebody may have done it already.
	So you would have much better luck asking on a darwin mailing
list.  Somebody may have already written a driver for the Zip drive but
apple may have just not released it officially.  I'm nearly 100% they
wouldn't release the final version of MacOS X without support for things
as basic as that.  Never know I guess.

hi,

i have a error, when loading rules for ipfilter:
---
host#  ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules
1:ioctl(add/insert rule): No such process
---

ipfilter is compiled into kernel.
after that, i test ipfilter:
---
host# ipstat -i -o
---

and rules seems to be added.
why ipfilter shows this message? and how fix it?


and plius, the kernel options: ipdivert & ipstealth are for ipfirewall or
for ipfilter also?

thanks,
joskis

Hello
I am a libfetch library user. Maybe you can help me.
I would to transfer a file in passive mode.

I create an URL from the function fetchMakeURL ():
ftp://ftp:ftp@remote_host:21/myfile.

WhenI use the funct fetchGetURL () to transfer the file.
I make a tcpdump to examine the transfer.

Mu local host sends a RETR command corresponding to the file.
The Remote host 'remote_host' confirms the transfer.

Here, there is a problem, the file doest not exist on my local disk.
I don't understand.

If I transfer the same file via a fetch command:
fetch "ftp://ftp:ftp@remote_host:21/myfile", the transfer is OK
and my transferred file exists in my local disk.
Can you help me please ??

	Actually I'm interested in both, but purely academically.  I like
the idea of multiple failover protection as well as distributed processing
for high workloads.  I have no need for either.  I've been studying up on
the different solutions for freebsd (clusterit and pvm were all I saw) and
was intrigued when you said you knew of more libs available for FreeBSD.
Where would I ask what solution the gohan machines are using?  They seem
to be 8 machines clustered for building the FreeBSD ports.

Yes, as I mentioned in my first reply. See the acl man page for
details.  What's missing are shell tools for manipulating them.

Hi folks,

                     gateway        switch
                      |-----|         |
                      |     |         |---- machines with real IPs
---- dsl line --------|     |---------|
               Real IP|     |Real IP  |---- machines with fake IPs
                      |-----|         |

What I would like to do is have both the real IP machines and the fake IP
machines downstream of the switch be able to get out to the world.
At the moment I can only do one or the other.
I am running the gateway box in bridging mode and with natd running.
When I enable the ipfw divert rule then I can get out on the fake IPs
but then the real ones stop getting out.  Without the ipfw divert
then just the opposite happens.
Anybody have a thought on how to get both to see the world at the
same time?

ps1: if your not using a fixed width font the ascii pic will look bad, sorry
ps2: thanks to whoever fixed the bug in the bridging/ethernet driver code
     so I can actually run in bridging mode without crashing.

steve

I'm like you - but the best way to get more characters on the screen
is with X. I've got an 80x75 line xemacs window, and more than enough
horizontal room for two of them. xterm's use a smaller font, and I get
three 80x89 xterms on a screen.

I don't think one exists for FreeBSD.  I imagine Linuxes ltrace
wouldn't be too hard to port.

	Unfortunately as Peter said if the pci is a winmodem, you're SOL.
They don't have the correct hardware to be a real modem and only drivers
for windows and a few for linux have been written.  There is actually one
USB modem supported (a 3COM) so that may work.

	Well you're actually not in the catch-22 it seems you are.  The
installation process is where you do this configuring, not before.

	Have you read through the basic install information at
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html  and especially
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html  section 2.2.1.6  ??

read those in detail, and if your modem is not a winmodem, go through the
install process by making the floppies and booting from them, then try
network installation using ppp (protocol used for modems) it will let you
configure it correctly then.
	It is possible that the install floppies don't have support for
USB, even if your USB modem would be able to be used with FreeBSD.
Then you wouldn't be able to install over the modem. but could use it
after.  Then you would have to install another way and then get your USB
modem working then.  
	I recommend buying the CD set and using those to install.  It will
be much easier on you that way.

No - you could use qmail or postfix.

More seriously, what should all those automated scripts do when they
are run and the SMTP server on the remote machine isn't reachable? If
the process just hangs until that SMTP server comes up, you could wind
up with a delayed chain reaction as other systems ran out of resources
waiting on the server. They could just throw the messages away, but if
that's acceptable, you might as well do that to begin with. The last
option is to queue the messages to disk and retry later - which is
part of the job that sendmail (or qmail, or postfix) handles.

You can configure your chosen MTA as a "dumb" server that just blindly
forwards everything it gets to the "smart" server. You should also be
able to configure thing so you don't have to have an SMTP listener on
the "dumb" systems. Once you set one up, you can just clone that to
all the others.

There may be a port designed to handle this case. The qmail docs also
talked about it, and about using qmtp instead of smtp for mail deliver
for better performance.

http://razor.bindview.com/publish/advisories/adv_NAPTHA.html ?

What about the paragraph:
- FreeBSD 4.0-REL became unusable after 495 connections to the ssh
port. Each connection started an instance of the daemon which quickly
exhausted available file handles; the system reports "too many open
files in system". After approximately 30 minutes the connections start
timing out and the system becomes usable again. 

Or was the reason for ROFL another page?

Ciao
Siegbert

 I have an HP workstation with a builtin AD1816 based soundcard. With
 4.2 it now probes correctly:

 pcm1: <AD1816> at port 0x220-0x22f,0x388-0x38b,0x500-0x50f irq 5 drq
 1,0 on isa0

 but.. 1 out of every 3 mpegs or sounds i send it .. I just get back
 static. I have upgraded and rebuilt my players.. but still same
 problem .. my config file looks like:

 # When used with 'device pcm' they also provide pcm sound services.
 device          pcm0    at isa? irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x0
 device          pcm

 Not sure which to use as I am not sure wether this card is PNP or not
 .. but it seems to probe correct. 

 Anyone else seen this behavior with AD1816 based cards? 

  - branson

 PS> LINT should probably be updated to more clearly deliniate the
 difference between pcm and newpcm .. it almost looks like both are
 there and you could use either.

Hello freebsd-questions,

  are they any free load balancing stuff available for freebsd?

  For example i would replicate a directory of a server to another
  server (for apache).

The problem with sshd was fixed several months ago, before FreeBSD
4.1 came out.

FreeBSD's sshd is modified to throttle and quickly drop unauthorized
connections so this probably doesn't apply.  Even if it did cause
some sort of resource problem it would be trivial to track the
idiot down and break his arms and legs like my advisory suggests.

Have a look at the cpdup port in combination with NFS or the rsync
port. If you feel this is to slow for you, you might be satisfied by
coda (in the port collection as well), however, I found coda not to be
exactly what I'd need in our case (replicating webservers as well) so
if anyone knows about a fast solution (which would need direct
interaction with the kernel, I presume, I'm still hoping that a
network block device will be written for FreeBSD so I could do network
based RAID as the Linux crowd does), I'm all ears.


Best regards,
 Gabriel

Hello Christine,

This ain't a German Mailinglist nor one about Python but I like Python
and found the complete lack of good literature about it somewhat
disturbing so:

Ich würde vorschlagen, dass du dich mal auf einer der Python
Mailinglisten umhörst, einige kompetente, deutschsprachige Leute
sollte es da schon geben.


And in order that this isn't completely off topic: what about a good
German book on FreeBSD, I'll bet there would be people on this list
who would be interested, both possible authors as well as possible buyers.


Best regards,
 Gabriel

	Yes of course.  You can get the source code to everything in
FreeBSD, and therefore you can modify anything you like, given the proper
programming skill.

Hi, 

I've been playing with ipf to set up my nat box connected to cable modem, 
first with release 4.1.1, recently updated to 4.2. The new release contains a 
part in the rc.network to start ipf right after boot. It didn't seem to work 
for me though.

> host#  ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules
> 1:ioctl(add/insert rule): No such process

Try: ipf -y it does some synching. Otherwise your first rule is wrong.

> and plius, the kernel options: ipdivert & ipstealth are for ipfirewall or
> for ipfilter also?

AFAIK, these are for ipfw not for ipf, you can do stealth with ipf also, 
check the manual at www.obfuscation.org/ipf (if you don't have this how-to 
already, get it, you'll need it). You can hide the firewall node with this 
stealth thing, but really you don't need it and it might slow your box down.

This is how it works for me:

I dont use the new method as mentioned before. I think it requires you to add 
a couple of lines to /etc/rc.conf. What I did was:
1) compile ipf filter and logging in kernel -- dmesg should show a line 
saying ipfilter initialized
2) put ipf rules in /etc/ipf.rules and DOCUMENT it!!
3) put nat rules in /etc/ipnat.rules
4) make a little script /etc/rc.ipfilter something like:

#!/bin/sh
echo -n ' ipfilter'
ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules
echo -n ' ipnat'
ipnat -CF -f /etc/ipnat.rules > /dev/null
echo -n ' ipmon'
ipmon -s &      # change if you don't want logging to syslog  

5) make it executable and call it from /etc/rc.network right after host 
discovery (very early)
6) just reboot once (can do without but this is easier)

This might not be the most aestatic way to do it but it works. I don't know 
why the new method suggested by 4.2 went wrong, I *had* to use rc.conf then 
to initialize ipf and it would say "already initialized". In the end it did 
work in principle, but I found it ugly and returned to my old method.

BTW, I love ipf, finally a fw package that uses human language (earlier I 
used ipchains on linux).

Hope this helps you a bit,

Danny

Hi all! I'm still having problems receiving email.
This all started when I tried to change my DNS records
to make www.1nova.com & heorot.1nova.com both work.
Since then mail has been pretty spotty. (I've not
recieved anything from the FreeBSD.org domain for
quite some time.) About 1/3 the messages I send from
yahoo.com get through, plus I get spam coming through
just fine. :) I've played with these DNS settings,
taking several people's suggestions to no avail.
heorot.1nova.com is my gateway/firewall/email machine.
I'm running postfix with main.cf set to all defaults.
I've added the hostname and such in there, but it does
that by default. Thanks much!

(I don'r subscribe to the FBSD Questions list
so please reply directly if you are reading 
from that list.  Thanks!!)

I would like to install the Netscape to get the 
most that I can on my desktop (FreeBSD 4.2)

 [ ] Should I install the FreeBSD version??

   * I heard/have found that it cannot take
   plugins.
   * I would think it would run the best.  True?

 [ ] Should I install the LINUX version??

   * I heard/never tried that it CAN take
   some plugins like RealPlayer.  True?
   * I would think it would run OK.  True?

 I would rather not install both if I don't 
have to.

Suggestions please?
Thanks!

In general, no. There are a number of categories of dependency, and
some of them are required on the build machine to actually build the
port. In fact, the only category that is not clearly needed is
RUN_DEPENDS, and those aren't installed until you do a "make install"
as things are now. In other words, you've got what you want for this
as close as you can get it without restructuring the system.

> Also, the Ports don't seem to honor NOMAN=true in /etc/make.conf.

I don't see that mentioned in /etd/defaults/make.conf or the make.conf
man page, so it doesn't surprise me that it doesn't work.

That makes a lot of sense to me, but it's not currently supported. On
the other hand, a custom script that built packages sans man pages and
deinstalled what what went into the packages should be straightforward
(packages are built from *installed* ports). You could even have it
modify the +CONTENTS file in /var/db/pkg to reflect what it left
behind.

Problem getting TrueType fonts to work.

I copied 5 test fonts from a win machine to  my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Tr=
ueType directory

used ttmkfdir to create fonts.dir in my font directory

Added Load "freetype" in my XF86Config file

Added xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType to .xinitrc file

When I launch X I get the following error.

xset: bad font path element (#38)    =20

I am using FreeBSD 4.0 and XFree 4.01

Thanks

I would suggest using the Linux version under Linux
emulation.  It will, as you say, allow you to use 
Linux plugins, and runs as well as Netscape runs :o)

my 2d worth.

Subject: Which version of Netscape


(I don'r subscribe to the FBSD Questions list
so please reply directly if you are reading 
from that list.  Thanks!!)

I would like to install the Netscape to get the 
most that I can on my desktop (FreeBSD 4.2)

 [ ] Should I install the FreeBSD version??

   * I heard/have found that it cannot take
   plugins.
   * I would think it would run the best.  True?

 [ ] Should I install the LINUX version??

   * I heard/never tried that it CAN take
   some plugins like RealPlayer.  True?
   * I would think it would run OK.  True?

 I would rather not install both if I don't 
have to.

Suggestions please?
Thanks!

You want to send mail to @1nova.com, but your postfix config doesn't
recognize 1nova.com as a local destination:

220 heorot.1nova.com ESMTP Postfix
helo daar
250 heorot.1nova.com
mail from: me@blaat.com
250 Ok
rcpt to: hamellr@1nova.com
554 <hamellr@1nova.com>: Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied

while sending it to @1nova.com works:

220 heorot.1nova.com ESMTP Postfix
helo daar
250 heorot.1nova.com
mail from: me@blaat.com
250 Ok
rcpt to: blaat@heorot.1nova.com
250 Ok

So, add your domain (1nova.com) to the mydestination-line in main.cf
and everything should be going all right.

The only other thing I could think of is that your security level is set to
high.
Reconfigure /etc/rc.conf and uncomment out kern_securitylevel &
kern_securitylevel_enable.  Reboot and try the ipf command again.

Hello,
	A number of people have had problems with not being able to access
their FreeBSD partition after they install on a Thinkpad T20.  Well way
back when FreeBSD registered partition type 165 all was good until
recently.  IBM decided to make 165 standby mode by bios default on some
laptops.  I dont' know of a work around right now but I thought I would
inform people why this happens.  I am currently using OpenBSD but miss
FreeBSD on my mobile.

Thanks,
Doug

You still teach them about chmod.  Even for windows users, it's
possible.  :-)

In one firm, I gave the web developers a quick 30 sec. lesson on
"users, groups, and others" and how easy it is for them to use their
WS_FTP to change the permissions on files after uploading.  (Because
of the default umask, it was hardly necessary.)

They were surpisingly responsive to this "new" concept.  You may call
me lucky, but it's surprising what you can teach when you tactfuly get
the dept. on your side.

Damn, why didn't I think of that. IBM sure are hiring some smart people to
come up with a solution like that. That is the most rediculous "solution"
I've ever heard of in my life.  I've bought my last thinkpad.

    Plan A. You need to set everything on the inside to fake IPs. Once that is
set use static NAT to map real IPs to the machines new fake ip.

    Plan B. add another nic to you gateway, and vlan the switch....

With just two systems, running squid on one machine to access the
second is a decent solution.  This has the advantage of being
completely self-updating and trivial to maintain.

Some also use several squid servers and hide the real web server from
public access completely.

I think what you mean is sysinstall.  Run it as root, thus:

# /stand/sysinstall

That will get you started!

Subject: rdump to Travan 8GB Cartridge

Maybe someone out there has run into this problem before.

I am trying to to use rdump to backup a file system on one machine to a
SCSI tape drive on another machine on the same network.  The first machine
(whose files I'm backing up) is running FreeBSD 4.1. The second (which has
the SCSI tape drive) is running FreeBSD 2.2.8.  The tape is a Travan 8GB
Cartridge (4GB uncompressed).  The tape specifications are as follows
according to the manufacturer:

Travan 8 GB Product Specifications:
Specification			Travan 8GB Cartridge
UPC:				0-51111-46214

Capacity
Uncompressed:			4 GB
Compressed:			8 GB

Data Transfer Rate* 
Uncompressed:			567 KB/second
                  
Tape Length:			740 ft.
Tape Coercivity:		900 Oe
                  
Tracks:				72
                  
Tested at:			50,800 ftpi
Preformatted:			QIC-170


My first attempt was to compose the following command:

/sbin/rdump -0dsfu 50800 740 root@fs.myco.com:/dev/rst0
/dev/rad0a

The density and tape length parameters were rejected as invalid and no
parameters I could come up with worked.  If I left the parameters out the
program predicted it would take scores of tapes to complete the backup
when two tapes should be able to handle the 6 gigabytes I'm trying to
backup.

I decided to try the "autosize" -a switch and came up with this
command:

/sbin/rdump -0au -f root@fs.myco.com:/dev/rst0 /dev/ad0s1f

But it always returns the following results even with different tapes:

  DUMP: 62.91% done, finished in 1:07
  DUMP: write: Input/output error
  DUMP: write error 3988030 blocks into volume 1
  DUMP: Do you want to restart?: ("yes" or "no")

Judging from the amount of progress I'd say that the tape is simply at its
end, the tape itself is good.

I've also tried splitting up the parameters various ways (e.g., -0 -a -f
/dev/rst0) and specifying the slice to backup by different names (e.g.,
/usr instead of /dev/ad0s1f) but have had no success.

If anyone has had success with rdumping to Travan 8GB tapes I'd sure
appreciate it if they let me know how they did it!

Thanks in advance for any replies,

For X: probably x-chat. Maybe kvirc.
For console: ircII or epic. BitchX, as much as it's hyped, is not for
beginners.

Yeah, I was seriously considering purchasing one, until now.

Geez, IBM thanks for the incredibly great "WORKAROUND" if you even want

I am new to FreeBSD.

I have successfully installed version 3.4.

After looking in the FreeBSD handbook and other sources I have a basic
question:

My floppy drive is detected by FreeBSD. How do you access the floppy drive
(or hard drives other than the boot drive for that matter) in FreeBSD
(Unix)? If I wanted to access the floppy drive in  an MS-DOS based platform,
I would enter a:.

Thank you,
Kevin

I have a Toshiba Portege 7020CT, which has a ES1928 sound chip.  I am
having trouble identifying this chip (the ESS site sucks) - is it
Maestro, Maestro 2, or Maestro 2E?  There is a "FreeBSD Portege
Homepage", but it hasn't been updated in some time, and his most recent
kernel config is before the ESS driver was written.

I am told that the Maestro devices are supported in 4.2-RELEASE - what
is the correct kernel config for this device - just 'device pcm' or are
other options required?

If this isn't the correct forum, I'd appreciate a nudge in the right
direction

Thanks!

	Well it seems as you have done some reading and I just noticed
there is no obvious place that tells you how to do that.  In FreeBSD
you need to mount and umount disk drives to use them.  Try man mount
But here's an example  if the floppy device is fd0 in your dmesg (type
dmesg | more at a prompt and look through it) and you want to use a dos
formatted floppy try:
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /mnt   or
mount_msdos /dev/fd0c /mnt 
then use umount /mnt  to "un"mount the device when you're done.  You can't
be in the directory you're using when you unmount it.  
	The first argument is the full device path and the second is an
empty directory to which you want to mount the device to.
If the device is a hard drive that is not mounted automatically it's
basically the same.  For example I have a Fat32 slice on my hard drive
(what windows calls a partition)  I mount it like this:
mount_msdos /dev/ad0s1 /mnt
   And a FreeBSD partition on my second hard drive.  I mount it like this:
mount /dev/ad1f /mnt      f refers to the partition on the second hard
drive that I want to mount.
	And finally if you want to mount a Cd:
mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom

	You have to be root to do this unless you have changed some
settings and permissions.
	You will probably also want to check out
http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/
and the FAQ and get a hold of Greg Lehey's "The Complete FreeBSD"  Chapter
13 on filesystems would be helpful for you as well as Chapter 11.
Have fun,	
						Tim

Hello,

I am trying to use the "search / cross-reference / identifier search"
engine in your site to find the definition of "struct ifnet" in the
kernel source code. However, I do not get reasonable results. Any
suggestions on how to proceed ?

Thanks

Kevin,
Congratulations on the new installation and welcome to our little club
(how many thousands of users are we up to now?)
before we can teach you the secret handshake, you must learn to search
for your answers before asking. when folks know that you try to answer
the question yourself first before asking others, you'll get a much
warmer response when you have a SERIOUS problem. since you have found
(or are hoping)the mailing list to be useful resource, then you should
learn to search the mailing list archives, found at:
http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists but of course
you already know that you could find this by following links if you
start at http://www.freebsd.org. Anything can be found if you just
start there. To answer your question, I searched this list
(-questions) and came up with this link:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=2159997+2161711+/usr/local
/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990926.freebsd-questions
dos-formatted disks are mounted the same way as fat32-formatted disks:
"mount_msdos" or "mount -t msdos"

p.s. get that hair sticking up in the back and you can later apply for

There have been many discussion threads on this, although I have
not been following them all.  Apparently the most detailed threads
are going on in the freebsd-mobile mailing list.

Note that the information you have is not complete.  There ARE
people running freebsd on a T20 in some circumstances.  So it
is something more than just the partition id being 165.

This is probably very basic, but I have not done it before on FreeBSD. 
How do I get my box to boot startight to the X/KDE GUI rather than using 
the usual startx command. On linux this was done by modifying runlevels 
but I beleive it's different on BSD boxes.....

Under RedHat Midnight Commander is called "mc", under FreeBSD the name is
"midc".

	It depends on your shell.  I use FreeBSD csh so if I put startx at
the end of my .login file it will execute upon logging in and start X
automatically.  I personally can't stand that, so I made an alias from x
to startx.  Then all I type is x if I choose to run it instead of using
the console.  For you we would have to know what shell you use.  Or you
could read the manpage for your shell to discover for yourself.

I've been looking, so far in vain, for some kind of guidelines about how I 
would go about writing a kernel module for FreeBSD.  What I need to do is 
more or less what a firewall or a router does, ie intercept packets at the 
lowest level inside IP and either return them to the stack if I don't want 
them, or forward them to some other IP address if I do want them.  If 
anyone could point me to a place where this jewel of rather fundamental 
information resides, I'd be very grateful.

Hi!

I've recently installed a 3com 3c509B Combo NIC on my FreeBSD box running
4.0-RELEASE and it gets detected upon startup but the LED will not light up
and I can't ping the other host on my LAN.

I searched this list's archive and found several other posts discribing
similar problems, and followed the instructions on some of them.

I got the 3c5x9cfg.exe utility and disabled the PNP option and the card was
set to port 0x300, irq 10. Now, when I boot FBSD, it shows:

ep0: eeprom failed to come ready
ep0: eeprom failed to come ready
..
ep0: Ethernet adress 00:00:00:00:00

which was the same as some of the errors described on other posts.

I then changed the IRQ from the setup program to all the others available,
one by one, and it would either return this same error or this:

ep0: no irq?!
ep0: ep_alloc() failed! (6)
device_probe_and_attach: ep0 attach returned 6

at last, I tried these same steps, but changing the port to 0x210, which
resulted in FBSD successfully detecting the NIC on startup but the LED
would light off as soon as the message from ep0 appears.
I still cannot ping the other host on my network :/

Those people who have had these same problems... How was it solved?

Thank you in advance...

Although this page is written from the 'black hat' point of view, it
does get pretty technical and can be useful:

Every now and then I get this error message and I don't know how to fix it.

xl0: transmission error : 90
xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes
Time Counter "Tsc" frequency 199432833 Hz
/kernel: xl0 transmission error: 90
Packet dropped - xl0 : no memory for rx list.

This system has only 64MB of RAM and serves as user's home directory.

I would appreciate if someone could tell me what is the problem, and how can
I fix it.

There are no classfull addresses any more. 64 is being handed out in
the same chunks that other addresses have been handed out. Classless
addressing has been the norm in the Internet backbone for about 5
years. That said, I don't know if 0xffffff00 is the correct netmask,
but I do know that 0xff000000 is not correct.

I don't see any quick elimination of the "Class" references people
use. Even Cisco routers still tacitly recognize classfull nets by only
showing the prefix length when it does not match the traditional
classfull mask for that address. (Juniper gets it right!)

The proper way to specify a network is prefix/length.
E.g. 127.0.0.1/32, 128.1.0.0/22, 64.229.84.1.0/23.

But I think I'll pass on the horse-whipping. (Are you the whip or is
the horse? Either way it sound like animal cruelty.)

For those who do not subscribe to mobile, it is clearly the partition
type that controls the problem. Newer version of BIOS on ThinkPads
simply lock up when they see the A5 partition. Older versions still
work. 

Once you ThinkPad is locked up, it is dead until the disk is removed
and the partition is either deleted or re-labeled as something other
then A5.

Bruce Mah of Cisco has hacked the boot0 and other parts of the boot
system so that he can now boot FreeBSD on a recent T20 from a partition
with a type of A6 (OpenBSD), so there is no question that partition
type is the main factor. It looks like BIOS V1.03 works OK with
FreeBSD while V1.08 fails. For other versions???

While I love my 600E, I will not consider another unless IBM resolves
this issue. (I'm sure FreeBSD will have a work-around much sooner.) If
you have contacts at IBM, feel free to let them know just what you
think of this foolishness!

Anyone know what this is about?  'cvs co world' fails with this after
about 62MB
of transfer.

	Other people had asked this, but I had not seen replies so I
thought there was nothing written about this.  But I went to the google
advanced search, restricted the domain to freebsd.org and searched for the
exact phrase "kernel module" 
	The first result is
http://people.freebsd.org/~erich/ddwg/ddwg48.html
Which is part of and gives a link to the FreeBSD device Driver Writers
Guide which I didn't know existed.  Other results from that search are
probably good too.
	Of course you'll also want to get a hold of "The Design and
Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System"  by Kirk Mckusick if you
don't already have it.
	And I just found this by looking at the tutorials page.  The last
three are fairly advanced and one links to:
Dynamic Kernel Linker (KLD) Facility Programming Tutorial [Intro]
http://www.daemonnews.org/200010/blueprints.html
	In the end the best way will be to look at the code from other
KLD's and study the kernel code.
	Care to let us know what you are working on?

On my laptop, moving my USB mouse doesn't disable the screen blanker in
X, while using the little pointy knob (enabled as a PS2 mouse) does.
How can I configure the USB mouse to do this properly?

Thanks!

In linux it was done by modifying runlevels because everything underneath
that was set up for you. In FreeBSD you first have to choose which display
manager to use (xdm, wdm, kdm, gdm etc.....) then at least for wdm, go and
edit a bunch of files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wdm (not a topic for this list
really, and I think there is help for it in the handbook), and then go to
/usr/local/etc/rc.d and add a script to start the display manager you
chose. I have this all set up and working with wdm on my personal computer
if you want to see the configs. Let me know.

I compiled an SMP kernel for the L440GX board. I used the defaults in
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC for setting up SMP. The machine boots fine
with this kernel, then I ran ByteBench, and had a major system crash. One
of the errors was "apic_io was stuck".  Any ideas as to what is going on?
Should I modify how I compile the smp kernel? (apic_io's, bus, etc)

Which version of FBSD are you using?

v 4.1.1 (I think) uses a slightly different, simpler actually, way of
configuring for a SMP machine. Check /sys/i386/conf/LINT and src/UPDATING
if necessary.

Outch.  Mea maxima culpa.  I was dumping this onto a (*shiver*) FAT32
partition, because it was the only place I had sufficient space.  It
was the filesystem that barfed; didn't like the file name for some
reason.  Oops.

Never mind.  =)   -d

It is important, but it is not the only factor.  We have over
1500 ThinkPad T20's on this campus (RPI).  If we do a dual-boot
FreeBSD+Win98 install using one method, it works fine.  If we
do a clean install, or try some WinNT+FreeBSD install, it dies.
We have taken working dual-boot machines and made them die by
trying to do something with WinNT+FreeBSD or freebsd-only

So, on the laptops we have played with, it is not true that
an A5 partition will always work, and it is also not true
that an A5 partition will always cause trouble.

If bios versions are important, then note that it is
pretty likely that we have the "earlier bios" and not the
"newer bios".  So, it could be that we're just lucky-ish.

I am afraid I can't really be of any useful help other than
to describe our experiences, as I myself do not own one of
these thinkpads (or any Intel-ish laptop), and can not borrow
one for system-installation testing.  I like freebsd, but
not enough to spend > $2,700 on a laptop I don't need... :-)

[disclaimer: while we do have 1,500 T20's, we aren't trying
  to put freebsd on all of them!  FreeBSD has probably been
  installed on somewhere between 50 to 100 of them]

Hi,

I recently cvsuped to 4_stable (which i understand is now 4.2) anyway
after building and installing, and updating stuff, im trying to recompile
my kernel, and during buildkernel i get a bunch of errors.  They are all
along the lines of:

umass.o: In function 'umass_cam_action'
umass.o(.text+0x1456): undefined reference to 'xpt_create_path'
umass.o(.text+0x1477): undefined reference to 'xpt_async'
umass.o(.text+0x147f): undefined reference to 'xpt_free_path'

All of the errors are in umass.o, and have xpt_* in them.

Im including a copy of my config file.  I dont understand what i am doing
wrong. I looked in LINT to see if anything had changed, but i dont think
it has.

Thanks
Erich Heine

Hi,

I recently installed 4.2 on a machine, and I was having trouble getting nat
& the firewall to work.

As part of my trouble shooting, I added:

echo "firewall type: $firewall_type"
echo "natd_enable" $natd_enable"

what rc.firewall spit back when I ran 'source rc.firewall'

was
firewall type:
natd_enable:

It seemed that rc.firewall wasn't properly sourcing /etc/defaults/rc.conf or
/etc/rc.conf.

My cheap fix was to add firewall_type and natd_enable to rc.firewall (after
the sourcing of /etc/defaults/rc.conf), and it all worked fine.

I'd only edited /etc/rc.conf minimally (mostly via /stand/sysinstall) to
setup variables for the firewall & nat. I couldn't figure out what was
wrong--I'm hoping someone can help point out what might be the trouble, or
if there's a known issue like this with 4.2-Release.

Also...I followed the instructions at mostgraveconcern for setting up an ntp
client.

rc.conf
### Network Time Services options: ###
xntpd_enable="YES"
xntpd_program="ntpd"
xntpd_flags="-p /var/run/ntpd.pid"


ntp.conf
server time.nist.gov prefer

rc.conf
### Network Time Services options: ###
xntpd_enable="YES"
xntpd_program="ntpd"
xntpd_flags="-p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

ntp.conf
server time.nist.gov prefer
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift

in var/log/messages, ntpd starts,

Dec  1 12:12:34 batcave ntpd[371]: ntpd 4.0.99b Mon Nov 20 11:27:20 GMT 2000
(1)
Dec  1 12:12:34 batcave ntpd[371]: using kernel phase-lock loop 2001

But no time adjustments are ever made, and /etc/ntp.drift doesn't get
created.

I've read the man pages, and I'm at a loss as to why it's not making the
adjustments... (my firewall does allow the traffic, and ntpdate -b
time.nist.gov successfully changes the time (i'm running this hourly from a
cron job now since ntpd isn't working)).

THanks!

   I am installing fbsd4.11 on a machine that has dual pentium pro 200s
and a scsi cdrom (well and a scsi harddrive too). The cd works fine on all
the other machines I have installed it on, but for some reason on this
machine the cdrom initializes and then right after you press return to
boot the kernel it fails to load the kernel and puts you into the kernel
command line interface. The error looks identical to when there isn't a
kernel present. I have installed fbsd on a dual processor machine before
and it loaded normally and then I recompiled for dual support afterwards. 
So I dunno what to do. . . . I need this to work and im out of ideas..

thanks
phoodrow wilson.

I have version 1.02 on my ThinkPad A20m (Celeron
500MHz/12G/Win98/Modem+Ethernet MiniPCI preloaded) and it works just
fine with FreeBSD.  Never tried FreeBSD without a FAT32 partition as
the first partition, though.  I guess I'll never upgrade my BIOS
then... :)

Hi!

I've recently installed a 3com 3c509B Combo NIC on my FreeBSD box running
4.0-RELEASE and it was recognized upon startup but the LED did not light up
and I couldn't ping the other host on my LAN.

I searched this list's archive and found several other posts discribing
similar problems and followed the instructions on some of them. I got the
3c5x9cfg.exe utility, disabled the PNP option and the card was set to port
0x300, irq 10. Now, when I boot FBSD, it shows:

ep0: eeprom failed to come ready
ep0: eeprom failed to come ready
..
ep0: Ethernet adress 00:00:00:00:00

which was the same as some of the errors described on other posts.
As soon as I run ifconfig ep0 192.168.0.2, it hangs the machine.

I then changed the IRQ from the setup program to all the others available,
one by one, and it would either return this same error or this other one:

ep0: no irq !?
ep0: ep_alloc() failed! (6)
device_probe_and_attach: ep0 attach returned 6

at last, I tried these same steps, but changing the port to 0x210, which
resulted in FBSD successfully detect the NIC on startup but the LED would
light off as soon as the message from ep0 appears.

I still cannot ping the other host on my network :)

Those people who have had these same problems... How was it solved?

Thank you in advance...

-
Milton Moura

Mike,

Thanks for your suggesstions and patience. I've finally got it working.
Basically I'm trying to build a network using old cheap computers that I can
pick up for next to nothing. FreeBSD has good performance on the older
machines so thats why I want to learn about it.

Anyway, on one of the machines I have an older version of FreeBSD (v4.0). I
did a kldstat on it and it showed that linux.ko was loaded. I did a whereis
on linux.ko and it said /modules. I went to machine running the newer
version of FreeBSD (v5.0-CURRENT branch, June 2000). I went to the /modules
directory and saw that it was empty. I then ran sysinstall and tried to
reinstall the linux compatibility options. I did this but it still didn't
load the modules. I then went back into sysinstall and started looking
around. In the README it said that the version of FreeBSD I had was not for
the uninitiated FreeBSD user (me) and that it could contain a few bugs. I
assume that one of the bugs is that the linux compatibility doesn't install
properly.  I didn't have anything valuable on the hard disk so I reinstalled
FreeBSD version 4. The linux stuff installed fine. I installed Wingzs (linux
spreadsheet) and it worked fine. I haven't decided yet but I'm thinking of
upgrading the v4.0 to the v5.0 disk that I have. That way I will have the
newer kernel with the linux libraries already installed. 

I hope that explains whats going on.

Thanks,
Matt

	Ok, I don't know what asking for Linux compatability at install time
	does. You need to do two things, though: 1) enable the kernel API
	support for Linux, and install the linux_base port.

	That would indicate that the linux_base port was installed. You
might
	verify that /compat is a symlink to /usr/compat, or /compat/linux is
a
	symlink to /usr/compat/linux.

	> *	Next I edited the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file and added

	You should *never* touch anything in /etc/defaults/. Those files
hold
	default values for things you set in files in /etc. In this case,
	/etc/rc.conf - which should have had LINUX_ENABLE="yes" added by the
	install process.

	It doesn't look like the Linux module is statically linked.  You
	should try loading it by hand, though. Try running "/sbin/kldload
	linux", then check the console error messages. If Linux is already
	already loaded, it will say "module linux already present" or words
to
	that effect. If it's wasn't loaded, and the module exists, that will
	load it for you. If you can't get it loaded, you won't be able to
get
	them to run.

	Care to provide the exact text of the message you got from running
	"linux"? There are a number of things that can be interpreted as
	saying the module was unknown, but don't mean that.

	Um - if you have the linux module loaded, it will check
	/compat/linux/lib before it checks /lib. If you managed to overwrite
	FreeBSD libraries with their Linux version, your system is going to
be
	*very* flaky.

	Binaries? In a lib directory? Where in the manual does it say that?

I'm trying to get working a generic pptp scenario - Win NT client
to FreeBSD server.  The example configs are great and work pretty
much out of the box.  However, in going through the log output to
make sure I'm really setting up a secure link, I'm not sure if
the link is as secure as it can be.  Most entries refer to 40 bit.

On the unix side I just have the pptp section from the sample in
mpd.conf and the corresponding section in mpd.links.  This includes the
appropriate mpd.conf commands to enable mpp-e40 and mpp-e128.  On the
windows side I created a DUN entry using RASPPTPM.  In the settings I
changed the security to be 'Accept only Microsoft encrypted authentication'
with only the 'Require data encryption' box checked.  Right now I'm
doing this only on the internal LAN so there's no firewall or anything
to worry about.

In the output produced during logon I see a few things that make me
believe things aren't right.  Hopefully someone can comment.  Because
of the size, I'll cut-n-paste rather than giving the whole log.  If
needed, I can post/send the whole thing.

My questions are:

1) Do I need to include the following in mpd.conf or is it implied
(or different than) mpp-eXXX?

      set bundle enable encryption

2) [pptp] LCP: state change Ack-Rcvd --> Opened

Why does it say 'peer wants nothing'?  Shouldn't it always be wanting CHAP?

You apparently didn't read the above line on umass, where it states
that scbus and da are required. You have them commented out in the
scsi sections above. There may be more to it than that but adding
scbus and da would be a start.

hello,

i'm fighting with getting a 4.2R diskless system up, and i've gotten
pretty far.  the system boots OK, mounts the MFS mounts (/conf/etc,
etc.), but i have some really weird problems that look kvm-ish in
nature.  

grind3# top
top: nlist failed

grind3# pstat -s
pstat: undefined symbol: _numvnodes

/dev/mem and /dev/kmem are there, have even been recreated with MAKEDEV,
and are 0640 root.kmem...

I started with 4.1R on this.. Recently upgraded the server to 4.2R, then
dumped its /,/usr,/var filesystems to the nfs rootdisk.. 

the client is an older system (pre-PXE), so i'm using an etherboot
floppy, and it seems to be doing fine..  it loads the kernel from the
bootp server (4.2R kernel compiled with all the bootp goodies).  the
kernel is one freshly built from within the diskless system, then moved
to the tftpboot dir on the server.  ARG.  the modules are all freshly
installed.

one weird thing i see is when i compare a kldstat between this diskless
system and a regular 4.2R system.  here's the kldstat output from a good
system:

grind2# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    2 0xc0100000 33470c   kernel
 2    1 0xc170e000 4000     mfs.ko      

here's from grind3, the diskless system:
grind3# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    4 0xc0000000 40000000 kernel
 2    1 0xc0c14000 4000     mfs.ko
 3    1 0xc0c1f000 4000     null.ko
 4    1 0xc0c37000 3000     vn.ko      

why the kernel size?  am I doing something dumb? is there a bootstrap
that has to happen before the kernel loads?  grr.

i'm starting to feel really really dumb here.  can anyone help out?

thanks
Matt Wilbur

various config files follow:

Hello Brian,

VERY interesting. Do i have to setup squid to listen on port 80
instead of 3128 for this? Or are they any other configuration tips
somewhere?  I think i have to change the port to 80, and the request
to a specific domain is resolved (internally) by an internal dns server combined
with round robin? At this point we have load sharing with cached http
pages (very userful with static pages), but even if this works we still not have
real load balancing.

Lets assume i put a squid server in front of the real webserver.
Dynamic webpages will still be processed over the real server btw the
cache must be always refreshed. As seen at many providers, this will
provide by high load servers some timing problems, the result is that
you request a page and it takes 2-5 secounds before you can see
anything. The overloaded squid server requests the overloaded master
server, the cache needs to be rebuid and send to the client.

By this way we have two machines working and the cpuŽs have much to
do. I want one machine per request of a client, not two even if
running squid is a VERY interesting idea.

I need this solution (only for interesting purposes).

machine A (apache server, "master-server")
machine B (apache server, "replicated directories")

I would use dns round robin for load sharing if there is really no
good load balancing solution (free) available (this is ok), but there is still the
problem to replicate the content from A to B if anything on A changes
somewhere.

Running a cronjob every minute kills the harddrive someadays.

I  think about the coda-fs, this would be interesting, but i have
never get it up and running -(

If you look at the comment for the umass device, it says that it
'requires scbus and da'

> device                umass           # Disks/Mass storage - Requires
>scbus and da

but you've disabled those:

> # SCSI peripherals
> #device		scbus		# SCSI bus (required)
> #device		da		# Direct Access (disks)

Just take out the #'s for those..

RSN..

I'm using an ASUS PCI SCSI card.  I'm installing 4.2-RELEASE from 
floppies.  During the probes, I see this:

sym0: <810a> port 0x6100-0x61ff mem 0xc1001000-0x10010ff irq 9 at 
device 17.0 on pci0
sym0: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-10, SE parity checking

The card has 53C810A on a SYMBIOS chip if that helps.

The last message displayed is:
Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle.

Then it stops and never comes back.  Any ideas why?

Hi all:

Before this last weekend, I had a FBSD desktop machine with a 'client'
firewall setup. I was able to define a rule to permit ssh to the machine
from only a few hosts. Great. I understand this. (I thought.)


This last weekend, I setup a LAN and the FBSD machine is now a gateway
with natd and ipfw running. Using the rules given at mostgraveconcern, I
thought I could ssh into this machine, but no luck.

After several attempts at modifiying the rules with no luck, I changed the
firewall to 'open'. Still NO SSH!

# ssh /etc/rc.firewall
Flushed all rules.
00000 divert 8668 ip from any to any via vx0
00100 allow ip from any to any via lo0
00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8
65000 allow ip from any to any

Here is some diagnostics that I have tried:

Attempting to ssh from a remote host never responds with a login.

The latter two scenarios, although I was able to get in, took upwards one
minute to finally let me in.

Thanks for any help.

	Usually it's poor termination, ID number duplication, or IRQ
sharing.

My company needs a script to do the following -
we have a list of dealers (name, address, phone,
fax,email). We want to put a zip code search
field on this page that would return the nearest
8 zipcodes to the one being searched for. That 
part is probably quite simple, the main thing it
needs to do is be able to return multiple dealers
in the same zip code, when there are more than
one. 
Example:
I search for 98036 and get 8 nearest dealers,
all in the seattle/tacoma area, several of which
are in the same seattle zip code.
If there is anyone interested in writing such a
script we will pay for it. Or if anyone knows of
one available, please point me in the right direction.
I have checked quite a number of web sites with 
various types of scripts and come up with nothing
so far. This would need to run on an apache/bsd 
machine.
Thankyou,

Hi!
I just installed a (PCI) S3 VIRGE card to use instead of the crappy SiS
5598 on
board video adapter. 
When I turn on my pc it hangs when it arrives to moused.
I tried a ps/2 and a serial mouse with the same results.
If I boot from the 4.1.1 cd and try to activate moused it fails with the
correct settings.

Any help will be apreciated.

Victor.

	No matter how annoying the person, how much of a troll their
e-mail was, etc., etc.; you do the project more harm than good with a
response like this. If you cannot possibly answer and e-mail without
calling the person names, simply don't answer it. 

Thanks,

Although this is perfectly acceptable, for the sake of the archives, I
believe the Right Way(tm) is to start (x|w|k|g)dm from /etc/ttys.
Take a look:

  dima@hornet% grep xterm /etc/ttys
  ttyvf   "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon"  xterm   on

By default, the first argument is ttyv8 instead of vf, and 'on' is
'off'.  If you change the off to on, xdm will be started by init on
ttyv8 when it starts up.  You can, of course, change xdm to whatever
you want as long it supports the 'nodaemon' option.

I'm using a simliar setup (you didn't specify which ViRGE you've, so I
can't say if it's identical) on two machines (one's 4.2-R, and one's
5.0-C) and have no such problems.  Could you provide more information,
such as..

How does it hang?  Does it panic?  Do things like alt+f1/alt+f2 work
(they won't work when it's trying to boot--disable moused in rc.conf
and try to start it manually when the system is in multi-user mode)?
Can you ping it?  Does everything else work if moused isn't running
(obviously X won't)?  If you revert to the old card, does it still
hang?

Also, what version of FreeBSD is this?  You mentioned you have a
4.1.1-R CD, but is that what's installed on the disk?

Please copy this list when replying to this message.

Hope this helps

This appears to be meaningless, as it is the same on all computers (I
tried two, and they're both identical to yours).

I am running FreeBSD 4.1-Release and I am trying to make the lame port
that I downloaded from the ftp.freebsd.org.  I port builds without
errors, but when I do a "make install" it quits with this output.

===>   Generating temporary packing list
** Missing package files for lame-3.70.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/audio/lame.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/audio/lame.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/audio/lame.

Is the lame port broken?  Am I doing somthing wrong (I don't think I am)

Me as well, a 133MHz and a 200MHz system both come up with above response. I
am interested in the answer now though:)

I believe this might be your answer:

  dima@hornet# sysctl machdep.tsc_freq
  machdep.tsc_freq: 498853267

The actual frequency is different every time you start up, and if your
application doesn't care, just round it off.

In case you're wondering how I found this, I used:
`sysctl -a | grep 498` since I know 498 is my CPU frequency as
reported by the kernel on startup.

Hope this helps

I would like to update the ports collection on my boxes via CVSup, but I'm
concerned about the risks of doing so.  I figure it's probably a good idea
not to cross major release numbers, but what about such things like 
changes from 4.0 to 4.1 to 4.2 that might break a RELENG_4 port installed
on a 4.1-R machine?  Is there an UPDATING.TXT-like file someplace that
details this, or am I worrying over nothing?

As I keep working on this issue, I keep inching forward. The ssh login
'su' garbage below was my mistake. In setting up the LAN I changed the
name of my gateway. That is now fixed.

I verfied ssh was working by removing all the firewall rules with

# ipfw -f flush

Reading some of the postings on mailing list suggestd that divert should
come after the firewall rules.

My rules started out with 

00100 0   0 divert 8668 ip from any to any via vx0
00150 0   0 allow ip from any to any via lo0
...

If I remove 100

then ssh works, but of course I have killed my lan. I tried moving divert
toward the end, but have not been sucessfull.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks much.

I don't like to do it that way for various reasons... mainly because as
far as I know, if you want to kill that process it's not as simple.. (I
know it's not much harder your way, but thats the main reason I don't do
it your way.

G'day --

I have a fast connection at the office, a miserably slow modem line at
home, and a laptop in between.  I have a complete source tree which I
sucked down at work and brought home on the laptop, and want to use it
to maintain a FBSD box at home.  I plan to use CVSup to maintain the
tree at home via the modem.  This will only be feasible if the weekly
volume of traffic via CVSup is reasonable (a couple of MB or so).  I
realize this is unpredictable, but how much traffic is typical, once
my tree is up to date?

I also have a (probably stupid) question.  I don't know how to find
out, in advance of the cvs checkout, what release tags are available
at that moment, if the latest has changed.  Greg's text gives
instructions for this, but it apparently presumes that I have access
to Makefile in src.  I have that now, having downloaded CURRENT,
but surely there's a way to check this before the download?

Thank you -d

thanks.

I've looked through the probes.  No IRQ sharing I could see.  All 
conflicts were removed during the configuration stage.  I've tried with a 
single SCSI disk to remove ID duplication possibilities.

As for termination, I've tried 4 SCSI drives, each of which I think I've 
terminated properly.  The card is a loaner and worked previously.  So 
unless there's another idea, I'll start suspecting termination.

This is only present for Pentium's or later.  This will not work on 386 and
486, nor will it work on an Alpha, IA/64, PPC, etc.

It *shouldn't* be IRQ sharing. On serial ports, yes. On PCI SCSI cards, 
no. Then again, look and see its on IRQ 9. That's a.k.a. IRQ 2, a 
common place to put an extra COM port or ethernet card. The only way I 
know to move it is with MB BIOS, and that varies with machine. Share it 
with something else PCI, like I do:

ahc0: <Adaptec 2940 SCSI adapter> port 0xe000-0xe0ff mem 0xf8000000-0xf8000fff irq 15 at device 9.0 on pci0
sym0: <875> port 0xd800-0xd8ff mem 0xf7000000-0xf7000fff,0xf7800000-0xf78000ff irq 15 at device 11.0 on pci0
fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0xd400-0xd41f mem 0xf5800000-0xf58fffff,0xf9000000-0xf9000fff irq 15 at device 13.0 on pci0

Haven't been brave enough (or desparate) to try sharing with an ATA
device. In the above example the 2nd IDE normally on IRQ 15 is disabled.

Don't think your problem is termination as it wouldn't hang forever 
unless it was stuck between the CPU and '810.

I was not aware the sym driver supported the 810, but its man page says 
it does. If you have a running system, try replacing sym with ncr. If 
ncr is in your kernel think you can disable sym with "boot -c".

If you have othern sym cards in the machine also too that you wish to
continue using sym, the SYM_SETUP_LP_PROBE_MAP option appears to allow
sym to skip the '810's so ncr will pick it up. See the sym(4) manpage.

Sometimes, "It worked in the other machine" turns out the card got 
zapped between machines. They are safest not being moved.

Good.  Because I've just moved to a SCSI cable with a terminator at the 
end of it and it still doesn't boot.

This is a fresh install.  I'm still trying to get the box to come up after visual 
configuration, removing conflicts, etc.

I've gotten myself to the "config"> prompt and I'm trying to disable sym.  
di sym, di sym0, all fail.  What have I missed?

Hi, I have a cable modem and have used IPsec to setup a VPN between my home
network, office WAN and another location I life.  I want to use RIP to
discover all the routes but I'm worried about random RIP broadcasts on the
cable line.  With Freeswan, Linux's IPsec implementation, the IPsec
traffic goes over the virtual ipsecX interface and thus limiting RIP
traffic to that interface and the internal Ethernet interface is easy.  Is
there any way I can setup something secure like that in FreeBSD?  I'm
trying to mess with creating the IPsec link and also using the gifX
interfaces, but I have yet to be successful.

Any pointers would be great.  Is there a better place for me to ask this 
question?

Thanks,

Michael

I entirely agree with Doug.
If I was a newbie here this kind of response would scare
me off from this group for good, to the consequent
detriment of the reputation of FreebSD, and one person who
may just decide it is something only for experts.

I am not a newbie to UNIX, but am relatively new to FreeBSD, so
I am not about to tell people how to behave here. But before
you shoot off insults at people (total strangers btw) think
how would feel to receive such an email or public posting.

My 0,2 (Dutch) cents worth

Quick off topic question:
Would it be better/faster to pull configuration for a C or PHP cgi from a 
text file, or GDBM db? The program will be accessed over 200,000/day, so 
speed and reliability is a concern.

Thanks

Mike

Mr. Kosinski is apparently expressing his inner feelings about himself.
It is people that have a very poor self image who are quick to point out 
the short comings of others.

Since Mr. Kosinski did it with such veracity, I'm wondering if he isn't  a 

regular on the suicide help lines.

Mr. Kosinski should realize that no matter what level of expertise he 
thinks he has attained, there are many people above him who could 
flame him worse.

So what it boils down to is:
You have to be a real ass to say something like this
You have to be a really stupid ass to say something like this in a public 
forum.

Mr. Kosinski anything from you, from now on, is | /dev/null

I hope you don't need any help from this list.  Some people have 
multi-gig memories.

I entirely agree with Doug.
If I was a newbie here this kind of response would scare
me off from this group for good, to the consequent
detriment of the reputation of FreebSD, and one person who
may just decide it is something only for experts.

I am not a newbie to UNIX, but am relatively new to FreeBSD, so
I am not about to tell people how to behave here. But before
you shoot off insults at people (total strangers btw) think
how would feel to receive such an email or public posting.

My 0,2 (Dutch) cents worth

Hi,

I was unable to build the webalizer port on a 3.5-Stable machine, and
was wondering if anyone else had this problem and/or had some info on
how to correct the problem.

I don't think it is relevant, but I cvsup-ed the 4-Stable source tree,
but have not yet rebuilt the system.

I agree.  If you have a habit of modifying your X configuration every
other day--which is by no means a bad thing!--it's much more
convenient to have xdm run as a daemon.  If you're fine with setting
it up once, it's nice to have init take care of its presence.

It's a matter of personal preference.  I was just offering an
alternative.

There are too many variables that need to be expanded to give you a 
quantitative 
answer.  Need more info. Although top of head feels like text file loaded 
to ram disk
or squid accelerator would be an all around answer.

The best answer is "it depends" 8-)

Please wrap lines at 70 characters.

Er, I've gotten full 100mbit with not very fast pentium machines.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly by your question though.

Subj: sh /etc/rc autoboot
From: troy@one.com.au

Hi, i am becoming more and more confused about the behaviour of one of my
FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE machines.

In particular the appearance of the jobs with COMMAND = sh /etc/rc autoboot.

If someone would be so kind to inform as to what possible reason these jobs
hang around in the system. The machine has been shutdown and restarted in
various ways but these jobs are consistently hanging around. With the exception
of one shutdown where the system was taken down by removing power, the
subsequent restart caused XF86 to exit on signal 6, a ps -ax is provided later
in this email.

tcsh is frequently core dumping as soon as i authenticate myself.
telnetd is occasionally core dumping.

ps -ax listing follows, if more information is required i will attempt to
provide it.

Thanks in advance,

Troy Smith

That's a workaround and only works for those shells that use those global
settings. The bug is still there.

This is nuts. It is now happening on my non-qmail system.
It doesn't have anything to do with qmail.

I get $MAIL as /var/mail/username every time.

We're talking FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE here, a completely fresh install.
No difference if rebooted (thought maybe it was caching something),
no difference if using a freshly created user account with a different
shell (/bin/sh instead of /bin/tcsh).

The problem/bug [for the freebsd-bugs folks] is that the environment
variable MAIL is set to /var/mail/userid no matter what one puts in the
/etc/login.conf file (and yes I run cap_mkdb) and also in spite of setting
it in ~/.login_conf. 

Even omitting the variable assignment has no effect; it still gets set.
Other variable settings in login.conf work just fine.

So I've got this reproducible on 2 systems now... if anyone can't
reproduce it on a 4.2 system I'd be happy to demonstrate, short of
reinstalling my OS.

I presume what you are really asking is about the efficiency of
the protocol implementations from FBSD.
I guess there are programs out there. But what exactly are you 
comparing it with ?

An easy test would be to do some large file transfers I would have thought.
Maybe some NFS copying. Set up a controlled environment and try it out.

On the other hand since you have heard of accept,connect and other socket
level system calls you could write your own test program ! That is not
very difficult to do. (if you want to pay me, I will write them for you :).


Remember there are a lot of things going on here.
100Mbits is the hardware spec. of the ethernet, the raw bit transfer rate.
There will also be the TCP/IP overhead.
There will also be the application protocol overhead.
The quality of your network hardware

Etc.

Let us know what you are comparing it with...

Cliff

Not much. I do it every other month or so via modem and while I cannot remember
how much it is it is not very much. It is quite feasible by modem as the diffs
are small textfiles of miniscule size, there are a lots of them though.

You needn't bother about release tags. Just stick to RELENG_3 or RELENG_4
depending on if your base system is a FreeBSD-3.x or -4.x. The RELENG_x will
get the most up to date sources for your system. (Of course you could get
RELENG_4_2_RELEASE - or whatever its called - but that will get you that, and
only that, not much point really...)

if you use mx, make sure its mx#0 , not mx=0. the latter is for
strings, the former for numbers. (see man printcap).

hi,

here is updated info:
securitylevel is -1 (i think, anyway, i did'nt changed it)
---
host# ls ip*
ipauth  ipl     ipnat   ipstate
---

i am trying to load rules not from rc.network, but by hand. invoking:
ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules

but ;) the first rule was wrong. so i changed it. and everything  seems to
work (including from rc.network)

thanks,
joskis

The three sizes are 16x16, 32x32 and 48x48.

I was about to mention somethig like that. I wouldn't suggest running
-CURRENT on a production machine, even if you are initiated. Right now
is particularly rocky - there are still gotchas associated with the
new SMP code (that's got a new threading/locking model, so they apply
even on non-SMP systems). As for sysinstall, are you sure you're
running a 5.0 sysinstall, and not one from the -STABLE branch?
Sysinstall isn't updated by "make world" and friends

If you're talking about runinng a 5.0 kernel with 4.0 binaries,
don't. There's a good chance the 4.0 linux module will crash your
system if you load it into a 5.0 kernel. Even if it doesn't, you'll
have *lots* of other problems.

Basically, you shouldn't run a kernel and binaries that are out of
sync with each other unless you know what you're doing. Things
regularly change in the kernel that require rebuilding - or changing -
the system utilities. If you don't have those changes in place, the
utility could break or misbehave in strange ways. For kernel modules,
it's even worse, because "breaking" translates pretty easily into a
kernel panic.

Can I install Free BSD on my Compaq Deskpro XL 5120 bought september 95 ? In
the past I had some crashes (SCSI Time Out during installation) with different
distributions of LINUX, due to the SCSI controller ("Pc-Net", made by AMD, reference
AM79C..., integrated Fast SCSI-II and Ethernet controller on PCI bus).
My system is equipped with two Hard-Disks on SCSI, a Plextor PXW4220 (SCSI)
CDR recorder and an old (5 years) IOMEGA-Ditto Tape Backup (QIC-80) connected
to the Floppy Controller.
Thanks for any answer, even negative ... 
Yours sincerely,

I apologize for my overzealous attitude.  I had a bad day; everyone has bad 
days
once in a while.  In retrospect it was a bad idea, but it seemed like a good
idea at the time.  You know, when you think you're just being stern, but you
cross the line and become overtly hostile.  I did not mean for the thread to
burst into a flame war, and I did not mean to anger so many people.

But just in my defense, why is it okay for Mr. Sarginson to use mis-conceived
assumptions and hostility as a means to criticize me, but I am forbidden to 
use
the same in at least a directed argument?  Please don't take this the wrong 
way,
but in my eyes, Mr. Sarginson's post had as much point as mine, maybe even 
less.
 This is all I will say about this matter.  Mr. Sarginson, if you have issues
with me and you wish to discuss them, I urge you to email me personally (off 
the
list) and we can discuss these in private.  The same goes for anyone else I 
have
offended; I will extend a personal apology to anyone who emails me directly 
and
requests such.

Once again, I sincerely apologize for my behavior on this list.  I am never
interested in making enemies but sometimes the worse half of me takes over.  I
also apologize for causing the list to be polluted with off-topic posts.  Once
again, this is a generic apology; if anyone wishes to discuss this matter with
me any further, I urge you to contact me directly and keep this discussion off
the list.  I've done enough damage already without polluting the list further.

Not surprising. source(1) is a csh'ism and rc.firewall is a sh
script. Try it like,

  $ sh rc.firewall

The file won't be created right away. Can you use the ntpdc(8) command
to talk to your local server?

How do you know that ntpd is not doing anything?

Hello,

I would like to ask whether a content delivery switcher/load balancer solution exists within the overall range of Freebsd applications, much like the Local Directors from Cisco or other similar products.

Thank you for any hint.

Once again I have made a mistake.  To Cliff Sarginson: I misread

Could you tell us again what does and does not work? In your last
mail, you were ssh'ing to localhost and getting messages from sshd
about attempts to login as root? So, does,

  $ ssh -v -l joeuser localhost

Work sometimes?

The ports tree has no branches (not much of a tree). There is no such
thing as a RELENG_4 port.

hello,
I asked about this 2 days ago (Gus MAX, 4.0 -> 4.2
upgrade and sound stopped working) and i didn't want to
wait for an answer anymore, so I "solved" the problem.
(I'm not specially a kernel/any driver hacker, so this
was the best I could do.. :)
Hope this helps, José, this is what I did:
(If you have ftp access or sources extracted somewhere,
it is a lot easier, just replace /usr/src/sys/dev/sound
with 4.0 version)

#cd /usr/src
#tar czf sys42.tar.gz sys
#rm -r sys
#cd /cdrom/src                 (4.0-RELEASE cdrom)
#sh install.sh sys
#cd /usr/src/sys/dev/
#tar czf sys.dev.sound40.tar.gz sound
#mv sys.dev.sound40.tar.gz /usr/src
#cd /usr/src
#rm -r sys
#tar xzf sys42.tar.gz
#cd /usr/src/sys/dev
#rm -r sound
#mv /usr/src/sys.dev.sound40.tar.gz .
#tar xzf sys.dev.sound40.tar.gz

and then I went to make the kernel 'the old way', 
config MYKERNEL and cd to ../../compile/MYKERNEL

When 'make depend' complained about missing files in 
/usr/src/sys/dev/sound/???/

I did 'echo "" /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/???/the_filename'

Until all the files needed existed.

Not a pretty solution :) but it works just fine,
sound is working. I just hope I don't have to use 4.0
pcm sources for every FBSD release from now on. I
definitely saved the 4.0 sound tarball for future use.

By the way, I don't know if it makes a difference, 
I have "NO_MODULES=yes" in /etc/make.conf

I bet he needs to kill the sshd or telnetd process (owned by root)
that is controlling ttyp1. 

I'm having a similar problem. sshd locks up on me for no apparent reason.
I can trigger the behavior by pasting text into my ssh client (SecureCRT).
Doesn't matter if it's on the LAN or over the 'net on a 256 kbps DSL link;
it just gets overwhelmed. Yet other traffic is unaffected. It's only ssh.
Didn't happen on FreeBSD 3.3; only on 4.2 for me.

Have you tried integrating the distribution into your source code
control system? This way, there is no "master" and "slave" server;
there's a source repository and a collection of "public" servers. The
public servers pull content from the repository, rather than having it
pushed from the master. The public servers either poll the repository
for updates, or you make the act of publishing a document include
starting backgrounded update commands on all the public servers.  This
spreads the load out across all the servers, which helps keep them in
sync with each other.

I user perforce for this; you can read the official perforce white
paper on web content management <URL:
http://www.perforce.com/perforce/wcm.html >. I've got a FAQ that adds
more to this topic somewhere. If you want, I'll chase down a pointer
to it for you.

You should ask the maintainer of the pine port directly (check the
port Makefile for an address).

	Simple. Like so many other areas of life, we cannot control what comes

It's not meaningless, it's just not very useful in this case. Look

Please wrap lines at 70 characters.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that, do you have scsi support in your
kernel?

I recall a small program called mhz in the lmbench port which tries to
calculate the CPU speed by finding the GCD between the lengths (in ns)
of two different instruction loops (whose lengths are relatively
prime.)

Supposedly platform independant.

Ups. Sorry.

SCSI enable. I have in my kernel
device          ahc             # AHA2940 and onboard AIC7xxx devices
device          scbus           # SCSI bus (required)
device          da              # Direct Access (disks)
device          cd              # CD
device          pass            # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access)

But why i need SCSI support in kernel for USB device?

Second msg about the same subject (first one was returned as undeliverable) 

Can I install Free BSD on my Compaq Deskpro XL 5120 bought september 95 ? In
the past I had some crashes (SCSI Time Out during installation) with various
distributions of LINUX, due to the SCSI controller ("Pc-Net", made by AMD, reference
AM79C..., integrated Fast SCSI-II and Ethernet controller on PCI bus).
My system is equipped with two Hard-Disks on SCSI, a Plextor PXW4220 (SCSI)
CDR recorder and an old (5 years) IOMEGA-Ditto Tape Backup (QIC-80) connected
to the Floppy Controller.
Thanks for any answer, even negative ... 
Yours sincerely,

hmm, ok, perhaps it's not supported at the moment, the reason for
scsi devices is that a lot of USB mass storage seem to emulate
a scsi bus over USB.  (or at least that's how they told me to get
my compact flash device working).

Hi,

I need some help regarding the upgradation. Currently my system is
running FreeBSD ver 4.0 installed using CD. Now I would like to upgrade it
to ver 4.1.

I am planning to synchronoze my local source tree with ver4.1 sources. I
am using cvsup for this. Here is my supfile:
---------- start of supfile --------

*default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org
*default prefix=/usr/src
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress

src-all tag=RELENG_4_1_0_RELEASE

----------- End of supfile -----------

I am trying to sync only the /usr/src directory.

I need a clarification whether this will overwrite the existing source
files of ver 4.0. I think it overwrites. If it overwrites, and later if I
come across any problem in compilation of Version 4.1, what is the best
way to get back to version 4.0? I am planning to take a backup of the
current 4.0 /usr/src files and then overwrite them using cvsup with
version 4.1 files.

what I am doing is correct? Doing make world is enough to build the new
vresion 4.1?

Please cc it to my address as I am not subscribed to this mailing list.

thanks a lot

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)

Hello all,

A search revealed a thread on this about a week ago, but no definite answer 
was given. Has anyone found a solution yet?

After installing FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE, including the XFree86 distribution, I 
tried configuring it with XF86Setup. It failed to start (some vague message 
appears). Trying to start X manually reveals (as root as well as user):

Fatal server error:
xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (Operation not permitted)

My video card is a ASUS V3800, but X doesn't know that yet (at least I 
haven't told him).

Any other information is available on request.

with kind regards, Rogier Steehouder

>Can I install Free BSD on my Compaq Deskpro XL 5120 bought september 95 ?

Not sure about your exact model but I've been running 3.4-RELEASE on a 
Deskpro XL 590 since 3.4 was released. It's been running a fairly well used 
web and FTP intranet site without issue.

I've been running with 1 x 1.? GB IDE drive (boot), 2 x 3GB SCSI drives, 1 x 
SCSI 4mm DAT, 1 x IDE CD-ROM.

I did use the onboard ethernet card for a while but went to a 100Mb/s PCI 
card to get higher speed from the machine.

Personally I've never liked those floppy controller based tape drives but I 
can't see how that would be causing your SCSI timeout problems. I'd 
recommend you check the SCSI termination and ensure you're running the 
latest Compaq BIOS (from 20 May 1998)...

http://www5.compaq.com/support/files/desktops/us/download/1140.html

... and based on my experience it should be all plain sailing with FreeBSD. 
Drop me a line directly if you need any further information.

Good Luck
Aaron Hill

since 4.0, freebsd has come packaged with openssh included in the
base. 3.2 did not have this feature, so you'll need to install it
manually. it can be found in the ports, if you have it installed,
under /usr/ports/security/ssh (or ssh2, if you choose). it will also
install openssl for you, since it's a dependancy.

Maybe a bit off-topic regarding your problems, but an HOURLY time update 
seems a bit much to me. I run it daily (from crontab, I only run ntpdate not 
ntpd) and it's fine. Maybe 1 or 2 minutes deviation. Is there anything wrong 
with using cron for this I wonder now?

At some point my system time seemed to be running too fast (dmesg showed the 
processor being clocked on anything between 85 and 95 MHz, while its an 
--old-- P100). But instead of hourly ntpdate, which to me seemed madness, I 
found out I had to enable APM in my kernel (see LINT). That did the trick.

Are you sure you're not having the same problem as I had?

Greetings,

Danny

cd /usr/ports/security/ssh && make install

should do to the trick. Or with the packages in /stand/sysinstall,
but it's too long ago for me that I did do that.

I am running FreeBSD on a laptop, which leads to 2 separate network
configs (work = DHCP, home = 10.0.0.1 & PPPoE).  I was thinking about
dropping an interactive (ie. prints a question and receives a keyboard
response) script into the boot process to switch my rc.conf files before
they are parsed.

Writing the script isn't the issue, but where exactly would one plug
such a script in, and would an interactive script work at that point of
the boot process?

If such a scenario wouldn't work, how would you suggest one goes about
this?  I could write a script to do the ifconfigs and make the choice
as a user after boot, but either scenario above (DHCP or PPPoE) has to
time out and fail when they are not on the proper network.  I guess I
could write a script to do the ifconfigs to setup after booting AND
one to switch the rc.conf before booting it on a different network.

Thanks to any and all suggestions

Something told me to keep my yap shut... but noooo! I've been reading a 
couple of books (the suckers must out-of-date!) trying to learn about 
creating subnets from a single IP address. Of course the matter of 
netmasks and subnet-masks is pivotal to the readings. I thought I had the 
stuff aced ;(

>E.g. 127.0.0.1/32, 128.1.0.0/22, 64.229.84.1.0/23.

Would you translate the above to the old way, so that I can see the logic. 
I read it as:

address: 127.0.0.1  use 32 bits for the netmask
address: 128.1.0.0  use 22 bits for the netmask (11111111 11111111 
11111100 00000000) or 0xfffffc00

I've broken & trained quite a few horses in my lifetime, and *never* 
injured or whipped a one. They've put a hurting to me though on several 
occasions ;,) Forget horse-whip, thanks for not flaming my butt!

Hi. I'm using FreeBSD 4.1.1 on x86.

1- I tried installing Mozilla (linux binary), both M18 and a recent daily
build, and it works, except for plugins. If I install any plugin, either
copying it to the plugins/ directory, or pointing the browser to a page
which requests it (eg. www.javasoft.com for Java, or www.spawn.com for
Flash), the browser doesn't recognize it. The files are in the correct
place, but typing "about:plugins" in the URL shows just the "default
plugin". 

2- doesn't jpilot (jpilot.linuxave.net) support plugins (like the Avantgo
one, or the mail one) on FreeBSD? Either using the port from
/usr/ports/palm/jpilot, or compiling it myself (even fixing the configure
file so it doesn't look for libdl.so), there's no "Plugins" option in the
menu. 

Thanks,
Pedro

If speed and reliability are a real concern, I wouldn't use either one
of those; I'd put it in an SQL db. On the other hand, this may not be
appropriate for what you're doing.

The two methods have different speed tradeoffs, so it's hard to say
even if I had an accurate description of the problem. On the other
hand, measuring it yourself shouldn't be hard.

As for reliability - assuming you're putting preparsed data in the
GDBM db, then not having to worry about errors during the parse makes
that a bit easier. But that's just a minor benefit.

I'm a FreeBSD rookie, so I'm not too experienced with kernel modules
etc., but this looks a little weird to me.  When I start pppoe, I get
the following output dumped on the screen:

(this is 4.2R by the way)

sjt-bsd# ppp -background pppoe
Working in background mode
Using interface: tun0
module_register: module netgraph already exists!
linker_file_sysinit "netgraph.ko" failed to register! 17

Dec  6 07:28:21 sjt-bsd /kernel: linker_file_sysinit "netgraph.ko" failed to register! 17
PPP enabled

It appears to me that modules are being loaded for options that are
already statically in my kernel.  If anyone wants to see my kernel
config or ppp.conf just ask.

This module issue seems to be a little overlooked in the handbook, so I
hope you folks don't mind a couple of questions.  PPP works fine at
this point, so this excercise is purely for my interest.  You know how
it is with these *NIXes - eradicating error messages like these is a
moral imperative!  :)

1 - can anyone explain what is happening here?  NETGRAPH,
NETGRAPH_PPPOE, NETGRAPH_SOCKET, and the pseudo devices ether, tun, ppp
(with option '1') are in my kernel, and my ethernet card is working
fine.

2 - can someone verify for my interest that options in your kernel
config file are static options in your kernel and not modules?

3 - can someone explain how one builds a module as opposed to a static
option?  In Linux it is straightforward, but there seems to be some
stuff happening automagically here.

4 - I had a previous installation of 4.1.1 that didn't appear to make a
ton of modules when the kernel was built, but this install of 4.2
does.  Am I just not remembering correctly, or has something changed?

once again, thanks to any and all respondents

All you should need are scbus and cd (unless cd needs da). ahc and
pass aren't required, though pass is handy for lots of things. What
does your dmesg report as attached to scbus?

In more detail, SCSI is both a set of commands and a physical spec. In
recent versions of the standard, this separation has been made
explicit. Some of the USB devices that look like disks use the SCSI
command set over a USB physical layer (I believe there's a standard
for such in the works as well). You need the scbus stuff to talk to
those. Of course, *some* of the USB devices use the ATA command set. I
have no idea what it takes to get one of those working.

ssh -v -l jfreeze localhost

works all the time, even with the divert rule listed below.
What did not work was ssh'ing into my gateway machine from a remote host.
To make it work, I removed rule 100 (divert rule listed below). So, now I
can ssh into my gateway machine but by removing the divert rule, I have
apparently broken natd's ability to work, ie, the machines on my private
LAN can no longer access the outside world.

The ssh firewall rule I am using is:

# SSH Login - Allow & Log all incoming
${fwcmd} add pass log tcp from any to any 22 in via ${oif} setup

I looks like the divert rule is interfering with the firewall rule.

I'm interested in the other lines.
Also, put a "log" statement on lines which you see which rules are
denying everything.

I am getting the following messages in /var/log/messages:

Dec  5 23:10:06 www sendmail[31337]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR: putoutmsg (NO-HOST): error on output channel sending "451 4.0.0 fill_fd: before main() initmaps: fd 1 not open: Bad file descriptor": Input/output error
Dec  5 23:10:06 www sendmail[31337]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(mike): fill_fd: before main() initmaps: fd 1 not open: Bad file descriptor
Dec  5 23:10:06 www sendmail[31337]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(mike): fill_fd: before main() initmaps: fd 2 not open: Bad file descriptor

Does anyone know why I am getting these messages?  What concerns me is
that they are all on port 31337.  Isn't that the chosen port of little
script kiddies, or is it normal for sendmail to be communicating over
this port?

Thanks,
Anthony

Hi all,

I need a pointer to the right direction.

If I dial manually using term in ppp all ok I get a link up and can ping the
net and do nslookups

If I use the ppp -ddial IINET (IINET being the setup created with
ppp_script.sh) it seems to not be able to negotiate with the isp. I have
pasted ppp.conf below

Thanks in advance
Kathy.

/etc/ppp/ppp.conf

default:
  set log Phase Chat Connect lcp ipcp ccp command
  set device /dev/cuaa1
  set speed 115200
  set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
IINET:
  set phone "62650000"
#Separate multiple phone numbers with a |
  set login "TIMEOUT 10 gin:-BREAK-gin: XXXXX word: XXXXXX col: ppp"
  set timeout 0
#Change to 0 if no timeout desired
  deny lqr
  set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0

That's the process id, not the port-number. For the problem? I
don't know, try the sendmail-bugs-mailing-list *mgrin*

My guess is that device is not supported.  I have a Sony spressa USB cdrw
that works with the cdrecord command as a scsi device.  It is not listed
in the HARDWARE.TXT file for 4.2-release even though it worked with 4.1.1
also.  I guess it is just lucky that it works, and unlucky that yours
doesn't.  Or maybe mine works because it can act as a little more
generic scsi device while yours needs a complete driver of it's own
written?  I don't know.  The spressa comes up in my dmesg as:

umass0: OnSpec USB Atapi, rev 1.00/0.06, addr 3
umass0: Get Max Lun not supported (STALLED)
cd0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
cd0: <SONY CD-RW  CRX120E 1.0j> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device 

	I have another USB device that comes up as just ugen in dmesg too,
and it doesn't work.  Once again, does anybody know where I should send
information to have the spressa included in the list of supported devices?

Sorry I couldn't give you a positive response, Zherdev.

:-)

euh, if you add the first line again, which made it impossible for
you to ssh to the machine, then "ipfw zero" to get rid of everything
and then try to login again, that is when there is usefull information
in this list. Then we can also have a look at /var/log/security
which tells you which packets are being blocked.

I sent the maintainer patches yesterday.  He said he'd look them over 
and get back to me within 24hrs as to whether or not I can commit them.

I suggest getting a good book on shell scripting. 
I have "Unix Shell Programming" by Lowell Jay Arthur and Ted Burns. I really
like it.
http://www1.fatbrain.com/asp/bookinfo/bookinfo.asp?theisbn=0471168947&vm=
There are many others out there, also. I just happen to have this one.

It's look like that HP 8220e use ATA commands. Umass don't look it. And on scbus only ahc :(

Greetings,
I am running :
FreeBSD proxy 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #0:
Mon Mar 20 22:50:22 GMT 2000
root@monster.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC
i386

I am using ppp (userland) on this computer.  I have disabled
inetd as part of my security tightening.  I want to use rules
in ppp.conf to keep the bad packets out, and let the good ones
flow.  As such, does anyone have a basic set of rules that will
keep most of the know hacks from working ?

I am looking for a set of rules, that I can use immediately, and
use them also to learn how to write my own rules.

thanks,
Darryl

I've got a few smaller machines here that will detect ed0 (correct
settings) when booted from the install floppies but refuse to do so once
installed. I'm mystified; the hardware hasn't changed. FWIW, the cards are
jumpered to fixed locations (i.e.: 0x300, 10, 0xcc000 / 0x280, 3,
0xd8000) and are not set in the software / EEPROM mode.

Hi folks,

suddenly, the console keyboard does no longer work. kdm is displayed,
but no keypress works (except num lock and scroll lock, which light the
appropriate LEDs). The box is still up and running, remote login is
still possible, the mouse can still be used to select things in kdm.

System: $ uname -a

Any ideas? What to check for?

The recommended way of doing what you're suggesting isn't a kernel
module at all; it's a divert(4) socket in userland.

Perhaps, you are not allowing IP fragments?
See the `frag' keyword in the ipfw(8) manpage.

Processes in the "E" state mean that they are "Exiting", which means
the kernel is trying to free up the processes resources.  To find out
exactly what's holding things up, run "ps lp 27194", and take a look at
the WCHAN column.  Most of the time it'll be waiting on "ttywai", which
means someone hit ^S on that vty, blocking output.

  The other day I posted the following questions to find out if anyone
out there is making use of Router Alert:

* Is there any documentation for using Router Alert in the FreeBSD
  environement.
* Are there specific options that the Kernel must be compiled with?
* I know in Linux there is a IP_ROUTER_ALERT option that can be applied by
  Root users to IP sockets to intercept all forwarded packets with  the
  Router Alert option. Does it work similarly for FreeBSD.


 
  Unfortunately I got no response. Maybe there is a better venue for this 
question. If anyone knows pleas let me know.

Hi Nik,

I was trying to find any information about drivers for IBM ServeRAID
adapters and I didn't find nothing. Are IBM ServeRAID adapters supported
under FreeBSD? If no, do you have any date(???) to do it?

Thanks  & Regards,

Ah, that does the trick. Thank you.

>How do you know that ntpd is not doing anything?
Over several (about 10 days, actually), there were no time
adjustments logged in /var/log/messages, and ntp.drift never got
created.

I was able to use ntpdc to talk to the local server, but, not
knowing what exactly to look for, I'm not sure what to do.

I have a FreeBSD 4.1 machine with exactly the same rc.conf
directives for ntpd and the same ntp.conf file, and it functions
as I expect: time adjustments a couple of times per day.

My CPU seems to be clocked correctly, so I don't think I need to
add anything to my kernel, but, I'm a bit lost.

Thanks for any tips!

I need to admin firewall rules from within C-program.
But there's some serious questions. Compared to command-line style
programmed access for fw seems much more complicated and hardly
documented.
As if ppl who did that docs thought I'm to know lots of things I don't
know in reality :0).

Any help will be appriciated :0)

I have a machine that originally had a 3.x BSD and has been upgraded
periodically (without following source via CVS or similar) and is now at
version 4.2-RELEASE.  I wanted to keep sources up to date via CVS so I
configured that and files were updating as expected.  When it was time to
recompile the kernel I noticed that documentation suggested making the world
before rebuilding the kernel.  I made changes as indicated in my make conf
files and make buildworld runs successfully.  When I run make installworld
it stops on an error regarding libcrypt.  Does anyone know why I might be
getting this error?

Thanks

From searching the archive, it appears as though drivers were never
released, however an employee of IBM was working on the drivers a while
back, you may wish to contact him on the status of these.
Here is the archived message:

The devloper at that time was Keith Mitchell (kmitch@guru.org)
Perhaps someone on the list might be able to help you further.

Hmm, I've tested this on a P54C-100MHz, Celeron 300A, P2-400MHz, 
K7-650MHz, K7-750MHz and K7-800MHz, all produce the correct results, all
have machdep.tsc_freq .. All the machines range from FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE
to 4.2-STABLE

Perhaps if you specify in your kernel to use CLK_USE_TSC_CALIBRATION

Thanks for the tweaked version :)

Subject: Iomega ZIP boot problem
Mime-Version: 1.0

I'm encountering difficulties booting from a 250MB Iomega ZIP drive.  The
ZIP drive is installed as the primary master IDE.  There's a UFS
filesystem on /dev/afd0a.


At the boot prompt, I enter 


boot: 0:ad(0,a)kernel 


afd0? is of course not an option here.  Since the ZIP is configured in
the BIOS to emulate an IDE HD, I take a stab.  The kernel loads properly,
devices are detected as per usual.  At the stage where the root
filesystem is remounted r/w,

I get the following:


<<CAPTURE>


<fontfamily><param>Times New Roman</param>afd0: 239MB <<IOMEGA ZIP 250

user mode

Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /sbin/sh:

</fontfamily>

<</CAPTURE>


	As you can see, manually selecting "/dev/afd0a" seems to be a valid
option.  However, once / is mounted, I get a series of read errors. 
There's more, though.  If I hit "enter" a few times, it manages to
execute /bin/sh and give me a prompt.


At this point, most any command I type that isn't a shell builtin results
in a few inital read failures followed by any number of successful
operations. For example, if I tried to 'newfs' a partition, the first two
attempts fail, and then I can 'newfs' as many partitions as I need.


I'm wondering if this kind of operation is even supported?  There don't
seem to be any problems with the drive or the media, I can read and write
files w/o errors with the drive mounted on a running system.


Has anyone done this sort of thing successfully?  If so, what am I
missing?


Thanks in advance...


-Mark

Your process is trying to exit. Try killing the child (pid 27200) first- this will eliminate
possible zombies, and then check if the parent had died.

Hope this helps!

I have installed 4.1.1-Release on my Sony PCG-748 laptop, and have been
unsuccessful at getting onto the network.  I have tried the fa_select.c
program, and played around with the defaults/pccard.conf file.

The card is the NetGear FA410TX card.  Originally, I was getting a
"Device not configured" error, but has since begun receiving a "IRQ
allocation failed" error.  This is the first time I have played with BSD
on a laptop, so this pccard thing is new to me.  (I was stuck in the
dark ages with 2.2 for the last couple of years or so, on a desktop).

I know this question gets asked a lot, but what can I do?  I want to
stop booting into my windows partition in order to connect to the
network.

Thanks,
Joe

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but someone might know the
answer. I am trying to create a "sound node", or a machine with multiple
sound boards at which audio streams can be pointed. I am looking at NAS,
and assigning each sound board a different port number, as in /dev/dsp0 ->
9000, /dev/dsp1 -> 9001, etc.

First off, how many boards will FreeBSD support, and has anyone tried this
before? The eventual goal is to stream data from a master server to this
box, and from this box, pipe the audio to different rooms. Since the
server has no free IRQ's, an offboard solution is required. I would think
an old Pentium system would handle the requirements, given that the
machine will only be running sound daemons, and maybe telnet.

Lastly, does anyone know of a way to control the mixer remotely, or do you
just set the volume at a comfortable level and adjust the input mix?

Thanks,
Seth Henry

Hello Everyone,
I have a small problem. I have 5 computers at home all connected via hub.
They are all connected to the internet via gateway running FreeBSD 3.4 using
ADSL connection. The problem is when I try to open SSH session from Win2K
pro machine to SparcSation IPC running OpenBSD 2.8, when SSH session between
these 2 machines is established. Gateway computer (FreeBSD) drops ADSL
connection, cutting the rest of the network from the internet. If I reboot
gateway machine it does not connect to the internet. And until SSH session
is terminated, gateway can not connect to the internet.
I have no Idea what could be the reason why it's doing it to me. Can anyone
help me or explain me what could be the problem?

I'm running:
FreeBSD proxy 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #0:
Mon Mar 20 22:50:22 GMT 2000
root@monster.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC
i386

In the tutorial in the online handbook for ppp, 
I am trying to understand the example of the 
ppp filters.  In addition, I have disabled
inetd so no ftp, telnet.... for security sake.
In the example filters, it shows ftp packets
in and out.  Since ftp is not running on my
box, the network users can still ftp other 
hosts on the internet ?

Also, in the from/to local section, does 
this just allow nodes on my private net
to pass packets to the internet ?


Sorry, but I'm a bit confused about 
services I've removed from my gateway,
and packets of the type (ie, ftp is
not an available service on my gateway machine,
but I want my network users to be able to 
ftp to machines on the internet).

Thanks,
Darryl

Ever noticed how "fast" CVS is, for example? I don't want to see
what's going to happen when I fed several gigs of HTML into it...

Doesn't seem to be what I need. Checking against a master copy just
ain't fast enough, thus the need for a push based system.

 Gabriel

Hello all,

I tried 3 diff TNT2 cards. Right now I have a Diamond VIPER V770.
Many say it should work fine. But I keep getting an error. I got the same
error with the 3 diff TNT2 cards.
The error says:

SuperProb: KDENABIO failed
SuperProbe: Cannot open video

I mean could it be something else that causing the problem? other than the
video card? could it be the motherboard maybe?

I can't even try to setup XFree86 from /stand/sysinstall :(
It fails!

Thanks,

    --Nader

	I had a similiar problem once, it turned out to be that the
machines were on different subnets. Ie. they should both have
255.255.255.0 as the netmask. Then the IP addresses should be something
like 192.168.1.x instead of of 192.168.x.x :)

Running squid is nice as long as you want to provide a bunch of mostly
static pages or as long as your primary server handles the load of
generating the pages and you just want to lighten it by moving the
transfer away from it.

That's what I'm looking for as well.

Same here and I've got the feeling that coda would eat up quite a bit
of CPU power as I couldn't see any documented way to access the coda
shares without connecting to codasrv (i.e. reading them directly from
the FS) so I decided I don't need to bother anymore...

 Gabriel

Thanks Courtney,

The -B parameter was what did the trick!  Thank you very much for your
help.

I checked Subnets and IP's everything looks ok.
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
#1 192.168.0.2
#2 192.168.0.3
#3 192.168.0.7
#4 192.168.0.13

Subnet for them is 255.255.255.0

So I do not know what to blame....
Any suggestions? I do not think I should blame HUB or ADSL modem...

	I had a similiar problem once, it turned out to be that the
machines were on different subnets. Ie. they should both have
255.255.255.0 as the netmask. Then the IP addresses should be something
like 192.168.1.x instead of of 192.168.x.x :)

Check your kernal secure level.  If it's greater than zero, X can't start.  If
you are in FreeBSD 4.1.1 just set the kern.securelevel variable in the
/etc/rc.conf file to 0.

	I'm by no means an expert, but the standard "reserved" numbers are
192.168.1.x not 192.168.0.x

CVS sucks, in a lot of different ways. Judging an idea based on a bad

Wow. It takes my web server (a wimpy 500MHz K6-2) less than a tenth of
a second to check against the master copy. Since that's to slow,
exactly how tight *are* your requirements?

I am looking for the firmware sources for the Tigon 2 chipset.  I have a
Netgear GA620t gigabit card and I want to install it on a FreeBSD 3.2
machine.  I have tried the Alteon site, but they require a  login.
http://support.alteonwebsystems.com/dest/Software
Does anyone have any information on where I can get the firmware sources
for the Tigon 2 chipset?


Thank you

Superprobe doesn't always work even for some cards that do work with
XFree86.

Do you get this error when trying XFree86 setup?  I think that would be
strange.

Did you try Xfree86 configure, the text based program to get x working?
That supposedly works sometimes when the graphical setup program does not.

Hi,

Has anyone tried running the Linux version of Lotus Notes under FreeBSD? I
tried
installing it but haven't managed to get it running. Any assistance or
pointers
would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

    Jonathan

First, please leave mail going to questions@freebsd.org, so that the
answers wind up in the archive, and so that others can provide answers
I can't.

Lanny Baron <lnb@FreeBSDsystems.COM> types:
> As to your answer, the file system is /var in which mail exists. So are

/var shouldn't be a slice, it should be a partition. Slices are called
partitions in the DOS world, and you get four per disk (unless you put
logical ones inside of an extensions slice). BSD file systems are
mounted on partitions.

If /var is a single partition, you can boot to single user mode, mount
/var, use tar to save everything on it to different partition (you may
need to mount another partition for that), use disklabel to create two
partitions where there was once one, use newfs to make them file
systems, then mount one as /var, do a "mkdir /var/mail", mount the
second as /var/mail, then use untar the backup copy into place.

Sounds like disk quotas could solve your problem, depending on how
your MTA deals with being out of disk space.

The systems hangs while booting just after detecting the chip. The audio
part is being detected as:

pcm0: <NeoMagic 256AV> mem 0xfea00000-0xfeafffff,0xf7800000-0xf7bfffff
irq 10 at device 0.1 on pci 1

This is also the last line I can see before the system hangs.  The only
recovery is hard reset.

Output from dmesg without the audio driver (device pcm) compiled into the
kernel looks like this:

Audio works fine under Windows 98 SE on the same machine. Windows report
the audio card as NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV and the system resources
assigned are identical with what FreeBSD sees.

Has anybody seen this problem? Or even does anybody know any solution to it?

Thanks a lot for replying.
I solved the problem, I RTFMed the motherboard manual and found that I
forgot to put an extra jumper to disable the old adapter....

I'm sorry for causing you trouble.

Victor.

Hi,
I have a problem with the FreeBSD installation. First everything works fine,
but then when the kernel is loaded, i suddenly get some display errors (all
"a" characters aren't displayed any more, just a space in place of them),
and then the system hangs. The last screen output from the kernel is "pcib0
: Host to PCI bridge", then the cursor jumps to the next line and the system
doesn't react anymore. Now ist the problem caused by the "pcib0" (what is
that, anyway, something on the mainboard?) or is it the next line, that
isn't written anymore ?

My hardware configuration : Acer-OEM-Board / Intel 430FX Chipset
 manufactered by AOpen, but I couldn't find any details about it),
Pentium120, Maxi Gamer Phoenix Grafic Card (Voodoo Banshee chip) PCI, 2 NICs
Linksys LNE100TX, 1.6 GB Maxtor IDE-HD, Noname 4xCDROM, 64MB RAM.

Can anybody help me ?

Stefan Pfenninger

Yeah many told me that, but I try XFree86Setup from /stand/sysinstall and it
fails.
I'll appreciate it if you could tell me the settings for your Xfree.
'cause I've been trying for more than 1 week now and can't get it to work :(.

Thanks,

Thanks Mike, missed that one.  Installed, but ppmtowinicon is not in
that (3.3) version.  Uninstalled it.  New netpbm package fetched (9.8),
new 34upgrade.tgz (changed since last week), and netpbm.tar fetched for
good measure, though I'd be happy to just add the package.

pkg_add - ah no, now I've got a real -question, not necessarily for you. 

netpbm.9.8 requires tiff-3.5.5 and png-1.0.8_1, so won't install.

I have tiff-3.5.1 and png-1.0.3, but can't pkg_delete either because of
huge lists of dependencies.  I've fetched the later tiff- and png- pkgs.

So can I just go ahead and add the new ones, or what do I need to do? 

Cheers, Ian

Mine won't help you, Matt's may.  I think I mentioned before I could only
get mine running correctly in 800x600 in 16bit color.

Doesn't have anything to do with superprobe.  It's unfortunate and may
just be a problem with the combination of your monitor and video card.  As
I said before I would recommend getting something better supported by
XFree86 than the TNT2.

Try running Xfree86configure in sysinstall and see if you have any more
luck.  What happens when you use XFree86Setup from /stand/sysinstall?
Sorry I can't be more helpful, but my card is not working well either.

Surely I did it forst of all :0)

but ...

man pages for ipfirewall(4) are too short in basic principles and containing
no example code at all

ipfw is cool but it's made not for tutorial :0)

hardly documented and no idea how to handle all that tricky unions and param
constants ...

Sorry :0(

At a guess, I'd say you did something wrong in one of the config
files. If you can provide a more detailed error message, I'll try and
provide a more detailed diagnosis.

Aren't you making life a little hard for yourself ?
You can use "C" or perl or shell/awk/sed etc etc as a
front end to construct firewall commands. Much less
work, and success likely in the short term !

of course, if you are doing this for eductaional purposes
then that is another matter :)

Oh !
I have 4.0 and I cannot find it on my CD set.
Someone told me it wasn't on their because of the RSA license
issue, but since that is now history, it is in the base system
for 4.2.

Can you clarify ? 
I don't see it on my CD set anywhere.

Thanks

I wouldn't worry, most of the literature is still a little schizoid about this
whole subject..telling you class A/B/C addresses were the "old" way, and then
mentioning them again and again. 
The problem was the original addressing scheme was causing addresses to run 
out basically. The class B ones were the criminals. So the whole thing
was divied up in a different way..as mentioned here.

As far as I know, FreeBSD now includes ssh into the base
system.  Actually, I know that much.  I have two systems updated to 4.2
and I have the full sources.  It now compiles OpenSSH with the world build
and the port is disabled, much like perl has been for a while.  I think it
may be totally out of the ports now.

In FreeBSD 3.x you had to get ssh1 or ssh2 and compile and configure them
seperately.  Now all you have to do is enable sshd in /etc/rc.conf.  You
can likely find example in /etc/defaults/rc.conf which may be set to
NO.  Copy that to /etc/rc.conf and set it to YES so sshd start at boot
time.

I may be giving information other than you need.  Let me know if you need
to know more.

A process cannot be "trying" to exit with a kill -KILL like he had sent,
regardless of the number of child processes or the state of the child
processes.  There's something else going on if it is a system issue at all.

Also, how will killing a child process possibly -eliminate- zombies, unless
the child itself is a parent to a zombie process?

I guess what I meant by routing issue is that other people's routes to your host might be incomplete or down.

One thing I just noticed in your original message is your statement that " but some people have problems sending stuff to it or getting to www.1nova.com/freebsd yet something like heorot.1nova.com works just fine"...  

I have two questions about that statement:

1) about the "sending stuff to it": Is this "stuff" files they are trying to upload or mail?  In the case of trying to upload files, is it via http or ftp?
2) about "yet something like heorot.1nova.com works just fine":  Does this mean that when they try to go to www.1nova.com/freebsd, they don't pull anything up, but when you set up heorot.1nova.com to point to the same directory, they can access it?

Just to provide an update here -- 4.31 was released earlier today and 
Adrian is working on patches to get the port updated to that version.  
I'll commit them when he's done.

I've encounted times where there was a single apache child/parent process
running which could not be killed. A reboot would cause the system to hang
because the process could not be killed. That only happens once in a while
tho.

Linux: "Where would you like to go tomorrow"
FreeBSD: "Hey,when are you guys going to catch up"

When you're setting up a system to be a primary DNS, what do you put in the
DNS entry of it's network config, itself or it's parent/root DNS?

I would be grateful if someone could enlighten me or point me to the
relevant docs.

Thanks, Bob

Thanks Mike.

I think for now I'll just stick with the v4 then. I'll keep my reading up
and once I know what's going on I might get a bit more adventurous and try
some new stuff. 

Thanks again,
Matt

	I was about to mention somethig like that. I wouldn't suggest
running
	-CURRENT on a production machine, even if you are initiated. Right
now
	is particularly rocky - there are still gotchas associated with the
	new SMP code (that's got a new threading/locking model, so they
apply
	even on non-SMP systems). As for sysinstall, are you sure you're
	running a 5.0 sysinstall, and not one from the -STABLE branch?

	If you're talking about runinng a 5.0 kernel with 4.0 binaries,
	don't. There's a good chance the 4.0 linux module will crash your
	system if you load it into a 5.0 kernel. Even if it doesn't, you'll
	have *lots* of other problems.

	Basically, you shouldn't run a kernel and binaries that are out of
	sync with each other unless you know what you're doing. Things
	regularly change in the kernel that require rebuilding - or changing
-
	the system utilities. If you don't have those changes in place, the
	utility could break or misbehave in strange ways. For kernel
modules,
	it's even worse, because "breaking" translates pretty easily into a
	kernel panic.

There's two well-done libs:   MPICH amd  LAM .
First one features definately for FreeBSD.
LAM likes more Linux.
But they both are just libs to create distributed programs not clustering software
that creates quazy-Cray with the help of 100 PCs.

I wish I coukld help anyhow :0)

Hi,

Does any of you know about a preferable lite IDE for C/C++
software development other than KDevelop & CodeForge???

KDevelop:
I have tried KDevelop, but the problem is that it wants the
source files to be in a sub directory of the project directory.
I can not use that with the current structure.

CodeForge:
I also tried CodeForge. It seems to do better with regards to
where the source files have to be, but it seems difficult to
define additional include paths.

If anyone knows about anything available that's like the (ahum)
Symantec C++ IDDE or Borland C++ IDE I really would like to
hear!

Thanks!
Jan

Hello Everybody,
There is very funny problem.
My friend managed to forget his root password somehow :)
Single user mode is also password protected.
The system does not have floppy or CD-ROM drive, it can be accessed directly
or via network, he only can login via guest account.(Telnet, FTP is
working).
Does anyone has any Idea how he can get root password recovered?
I just do not have any clues how to do that.
Thanks.
P.S.This really hilarious :)

	Actually it's all in the DNS itself. I've been playing with the
settings myself a little over the last week to get email and such
working. It HAD been working for a brief time, www.1nova.com and
heorot.1nova.com both point to the same place.

> 1) about the "sending stuff to it": Is this "stuff" files they are

	It's various things, mostly email and http access. FTP does the
not display the same characteristics. ftp.1nova.com works just fine! 

>2) about "yet something like heorot.1nova.com
> works just fine":  Does this mean that when they try to go to
> www.1nova.com/freebsd, they don't pull anything up, but when you set

	Yes.. heorot is the machine name. I'm trying to use www, ftp, and
mail to all alias to that. The only way I've been able to access http at
all is via heorot.1nova.com (Except for the brief point that I made a
mistake in the DNS, let it propegate out for about 5 minutes, realized it
was a problem (I thought,) and changed it back. Of course my notes on this
process have been packed away. :)

	Where my problems comes in is with the A record www entry, I
think. The Cname www seemed to work quite well. But I'm still bouncing a
few mails, which may be related to postfix misconfiguration.

Easy:

Boot FreeBSD using a kernel and fixit floppy, mount the all filesystems from
your disk on /mnt (so that'll be /mnt for root, /mnt/usr for /usr etc), and
chroot /mnt. Then, you can just passwd(1) it.

It's not all that hard to temporarily (or even permanently) plug a spare
floppy drive into the machine...  The alternative is to "crack" through
the machine's security.

There was something going around on hackers a couple of years ago concerning
processes which, even when signalled with SIGKILL, would not die if they
were in the middle of an I/O operation via a slow FS (like NFS under certain
situations).

Netscape Enterprise Server (bleh) did the same thing on Solaris, and without
NFS, before Sun patched it.  I doubt this is the same thing, though.

In any event, killing the child will have no effect.

I could very well be that since the Webserver is using a NFS for the
content which it servers.. But even when i break the nfs link or wait for
a while the process will still be unkillable.

Microsoft: "Where would you like to go to today"
Linux: "Where would you like to go tomorrow"
FreeBSD: "Hey,when are you guys going to catch up"

If I don't run named on my box but instead use a DNS server on another box.
 Where should I put this address in?

Thanks.

Mime-Version: 1.0

X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

As a newbie, I am trying to follow the directions in the Handbook for
setting up my FreeBSD box as a gateway for my ADSL connection.  In doing
so, I have run up against a wall with the step where I am supposed to put
new devices in the copy of my kernel and recompile it.  I get to the "make
depend" part and each time, it starts to do the make, but doesn't complete
it.  The last line of the make is:

../../dev/xe/if_xe.c:138: card_if.h: No such file or directory
mkdep: compile failed
***Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/sys/compile/MYKERNAL

It appears I am missing a file in the ../../dev/xe folder, but I am unsure
how to go about getting this file and placing it there.  Or, I may be doing
something else wrong that I don't know about.  I only commented out lines
in the MYKERNAL file that were obviously not in my system like pcmcia stuff
and scsi stuff.  And I did follow the directions for creating devices for
my network cards (I think).  My devices under the pci ethernet nics section
look like:

device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 10 iomem 0xd8000
device ed1 at isa? port 0x300 irq 11 iomem 0xd8000 

Any suggestions?  Do I just need to add that file that it says doesn't
exist or is something I am doing in MYKERNAL causing it to call that file
when it shouldn't need to?  

Help, I'm drowning BSD newbie lake!
Michael Walsh

In /etc/resolv.conf. Something like this:

domain my.domain.edu
nameserver 1.2.3.4
nameserver 2.3.4.5

I've added several DNS server in resolv.conf, but I still have a problem.

I've been having a problem with connectivity for a while.  When I try to
ping www.vt.edu, it gives me a DNS lookup failure.  When I ping
198.82.162.11, it says No route to host.

Do you have any idea what went wrong?

Thanks.
Ray,

This has nothing to do with DNS, and more to do with the network
setup. Looks like you haven't set up your machine to route to the IP
198.82.162.11.

What does the output of `netstat -rn' give?

I install /usr/ports/misc/buffer on the tapehost.

From the localhost, then, type:

dump 0f - / | ssh tapehost buffer -o /dev/nrsa0

I'm guessing you have no route to the host :-)

What does your routing table look like (netstat -rn)? Is there an entry
for the network the above host is on?

When you say "I installed mc", does this mean you used the port or downloaded the source and installed from that?
When you say "It won't run", what does that mean?  Are you getting an error message?
How did you "install" mc, but then need to compile it later?

What is "the same thing"?  Does is produce a similar error message?  If so, what?

Fix that problem by adding the following line in your kernel configuration 
file...

options         NETGRAPH_ETHER

... recompiling the kernel and rebooting. As I understand it that error 
shouldn't happen because the netgraph modules can be loaded neatly when they 
are needed but it obviously does.

Seems to me like the module either incorrectly detects itself as being 
already loaded or it detects shared components (with other netgraph) as 
being already loaded. I'm only speculating, I don't know for sure what it 
is.

>2 - can someone verify for my interest that options in your kernel

The config file builds static components into your kernel. It seems there's 
a lot of core OS components that are automatically build as modules if you 
don't specify them as kernel options.

I don't know about this one.

Doesn't appear to me that much has changed except for the usual inclusion of 
more features in the newer version. My latest 4.1.1-RELEASE server has 112 
modules, my 4.2-RELEASE server has 116. The machines have similiar configs 
except for different ethernet NICs and the 4.1.1-RELEASE has netgraph.


Hope that helps, good luck with it.

Aaron Hill

You also need NETGRAPH_ETHER.

Mine are static.

I believe these modules are created either during 'make world' or during
kernel builds.

Take a look at the MODULES_WITH_WORLD option in /etc/make.conf

OK.

Can you ping your default gateway (198.82.82.1)? Is this host a router,
prepared to route packets to/from your box? Is interface dc0 on your box
on the same logical network as your default router? What IP
address/subnet mask have you assigned it?

[ BTW: Your mail account at telia.com appears to be full :-) ]

Yes, when I can ping 198.82.82.1, I can ping everything.  But when I can't
ping 198.82.82.1, I can't ping anything.

198.82.82.1 is supposed to be the router for my network.

Yes, dc0 is my only network interface to the network and it is connected
directly to 198.82.82.1.

My box is 198.82.82.148 with netmask 198.82.82.255.

telia.com ???

Thanks.

I am glad to see something's never change.
All unix type systems seem to have had this problem since
the dawn of time.
A process can get into a certain state, waiting on some
event that never happens and the kernel never wakes it up
from this state. It only goes away after a reboot.

I've written a concurrent server and want to measure how many bytes per
second it can handle.  Are there any programs to do that?

Thanks.

Sorry to waste your time guys (and whats worse I know I've encountered
similar problems years ago and can't remember what I did to fix it).


  Note: I'm not running named.

search  cis.upenn.edu seas.upenn.edu

  I changed from DHCP to static IP addresses on one of my boxes the other
day and ever since have the following problems:

i) Resolving names fails.

ii) If I have a name/address in host file everything is fine.

iii) IF i just give it the address say telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx then things
     can take A VERY long time say three minutes for  the connection to
     go thorugh. If I  put it in the hosts file it then takes normal time.

iv) If I do nslookup I get
henrico# nslookup seas.upenn.edu
*** Can't find server name for address 158.130.67.1: Timed out
*** Can't find server name for address 158.130.64.11: Timed out
*** Default servers are not available


  I know I've forgotten something stupid. But wait until  old age and bad
memory strike you .....

tengo un problema de instalacion del freebsd 4.1 cuando quiero cargar la 
parte grafica, no la carga y cuando slago al modo texto muestra el siguiente 
nota

que el archivo system.fvwm2rc no se encuentra en el directorio 
/usr/X11R6/etc, me parece no estoy tan segura que ese archivo se configura 
cuando configuras el x-server, lo que ocurre es que cuando instalo los 
paquetes de X86 destok no adiciona el paquete fvwm2 y me parece que es por 
eso que no carga la parte grafica

cualquier ugerencia por fvor envienmela

I cannot resist saying I find it very cute that you describe this
as funny (and later on) hilarious.. that's the attitude !
Mmm... just glad for you that there are no users of your system
breathing fire down your neck.
I never forget mine. I write it in huge letters on my office
whiteboard with an arrow saying "TOP SECRET ROOT PASSWORD"
pointing at it :)

So when your default gateway is up, all is OK? This sounds like a flakey
router or something. I'd talk to your network admin(s).

Is that really your netmask? If so, try changing the mask to
255.255.255.0.

Every time I send mail to you, I get a 'mailbox is full' message from a
telia.com mail server. I've deleted the others; when I get the next one,
I'll forward it to you :-)

That is expected. ntpd(8) only logs large changes.

Hmmm... It should show up after an hour or so.

Try,

That is actually not expected. A properly functioning ntpd should not
need to be doing large adjustements.

Have you set your default gateway?
It's pretty neat when your box knows where to send requests for things it can
not find on the local host...

Don't worry, be Kneppie!

Hi,

I ran into a problem and could not resolve it.
I want to run an expect script during the boot
process.
So I create the script named as "abc.sh", and I put it
under the /usr/local/etc/rc.d.  This script runs ok
in the command line.  I also add & to force it to run
background.
It runs and machine boots up ok.  But if I type "ps
ax"
the process is hanging there like this:
PID  TT  STAT      TIME COMMAND
205 con- I      0:00.02 /usr/sbin/expect /root/listip

Someone mentioned that if the script trys to grap the
console, it will fail.  But since it is an expect
script(interactive), it needs the console output.

How can I solve the problem?  Any help is well
appreciated.

Regards,
Ray

Does FreeBSD support POSIX 1b?  Does it give an application the ability to
create many "REAL-TIME" timers via the timer_create and timer_settime system
calls?

Thanks in advance!

As others have pointed out, the process is trying to exit.  What does
ps lp27194 say?  The wchan field will tell you where it's waiting.

Not really.  The only module that needs to be statically defined is
NETGRAPH.  All the others can be a mix of static (compiled into the kernel)
or dynamic (loaded from /modules).  (The base netgraph code is smart enough
to use the static module if it exists, otherwise it will load the module
dynamically.)

[ Case in point - on a 4.1-R gatway machine I had NETGRAPH and
NETGRAPH_PPPOE compiled static, but if it needed others (such as
NETGRAPH_ETHER or NETGRAPH_SOCKET) it would just load them dynamically.
Yes, this is silly, but that's just the way it was. ]

To compile netgraph components statically, put the appropriate 'options
NETGRAPH' or 'options NETGRAPH_option' lines in your kernel and rebuild.  If
those lines aren't present in the kernel, then when you build and install a
kernel it will build the remaining modules into .ko files that can be
dynamically loaded via kldload.

As for your problems with ppp and pppoe, I can't really say what's causing
them.  I'd like to see the pppoe section of your ppp.conf, for starters.

Anyway, how can I know which font/videomode I can use?

This is covered in the FAQ.  It has nothing to do with "cracking" the 
machine's security.  And why would he need a floppy?  All you need to do 
is:

   1)  Reboot the machine.
   2)  Press a key other than enter.
   3)  Type boot -s at the prompt.
   4)  When it asks which shell to use, hit enter.
   5)  At the root prompt, do "mount -u /".
   6)  Run "mount -a".
   7)  Run "passwd root" and change the password.

See http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/admin.html#FORGOT-ROOT-PW for the FAQ 
entry.

Sorry, fast typing sometimes corrupt my mind.  My netmask is indeed
255.255.255.0 which means my broadcase address is 198.82.82.255  :<)

The problem I described did not happen when I just installed FreeBSD in
school.  When I went back home working offline and tried to open KDE, it
gives error because gethostbyaddr() or some other related sys call (don't
remember exactly) fails when KDE starts.  I then manually added a
hostname/IP entry in hosts.  Everything works fine at home.  However, the
problem arises when I come back to school and connect it to the network.

Any idea what might went wrong?  I appreciate your help very much.

Be sure to tell me if telia.com problem still exists, but I am not using it
tho...

Thanks.
Ray,

I have a FreeBSD 4.1 server used primarily as a firewall (with three
non-dialup ethernet interfaces).  Natd is configured and working on the
outside interface.  I need to run a second instance of natd on an inside
interface, but have been unsuccessful so far.

I defined "natd2" as a service on port 8669 in /etc/services, edited
rc.firewall to divert the desired traffic associated with the interface,
defined a script to start the second natd as follows:

/sbin/natd -v -n fxp0 -reverse -p natd2

The system shows that it translates addresses as it should for traffic
coming in from fxp0, but traffic does not get translated coming back through
the interface.  IE if I ping a second interface in the server from a machine
attached to fxp0, the monitor shows traffic coming in, shows the expected
translation, but never shows any response back out through fxp0.

The first instance of natd (on the default port 8668) continues to work
correctly and the vpn through an outside interface continues to function
properly.

Any examples or success stories of natd configuration using the -reverse
option would be greatly appreciated.

Terry

It is just a simple server that accepts BCD encoded data from potentially
100 clients at the same time.  I just want to make sure it can handle
sufficiently fast enought the simultaneous connected clients.

Is there some software that measure the data rate of a particular program
or on a number of particular sockets or ...?

Thanks.

Has anyone experienced xlock accepting more than one password for a user using
it?

I have on two seperate installations of FreeBSD (3.4 and 4.1) been logged in
as a 'normal' user and started xlock as that user... And then accidentally
typed the root password in and regained control of my X session... that does
not seem right to me....

thanks
phil

I'm assuming that you're looking to download FreeBSD.. if so, you can get
it from FTP at:
ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/

RSN
PS: Next time, please be more descriptive in your questions and add a
subject line.

Well, if you run "netstat 1" that will show you packets/bytes per second
being sent through the box.

Yes, but under FreeBSD you can specify that system calls are to be
interruptible by passing the -i option to mount_nfs(8).

euh is right.
OK, I'm still a novice here. Here is what I have done.

# sh /etc/rc.firewall

This put all the original 'simple' firewall rules back in place.

# ipfw zero

Apparently this cleared a log file or log counter, but I don't have
/var/log/security so I don't know where ipfw or natd is logging to.

From a remote host (outside) I attempted to ssh in:

$ ssh -v -l jfreeze 24.9.218.175
SSH Version OpenSSH-2.1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.

--it stopped and hung at this point

Back on the gateway machine:

/var/log/messages
Dec  6 21:29:47 eeyore1 /kernel: ipfw: Accounting cleared.

No record of the ssh activity.

Attached is scrub.c used to scrub a hard disk.

Examine the lines:

/*      if ( (fd = open("/dev/da12s1c",O_RDWR)) < 0 ) { */
        if ( (fd = open("/mnt/foo",O_RDWR)) < 0 ) {


If I newfs the 'a' partition of da12s1 (a is the same as 'c'), mount
it as /mnt, touch the file foo and then run the program it works fine.

If instead I open the c partition (as in the commented out line),
the open succeeds, the lseek succeeds but the writes fail with an
error saying read only filesystem.

Why ??

I want to scrub the whole disk, not just write to a file.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed"

I've got a ps/2-serial adapter hooked up to a freebsd 4.0 box that 
connects to a cybex switchview. The switchview is connected to a 
intellimouse optical.  I can't get the mouse to work using XF86Config 
or /stand/sysinstall. I'm using /dev/cuaa0 (and have tried cuaa1) and 
every driver combination.  Using moused doesn't seem to do anything.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Paul

I recently decided to completely rebuild on of my FreeBSD boxes which I am using at my gateway/firewall machine. I loaded it fresh with 4.2-RELEASE and now I am having some problems.

It seems as the some of the things I have put in /etc/rc.conf are not taking affect

Here is what my /etc/rc.conf looks like:

# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
# please make all changes to this file.
# -- sysinstall generated deltas -- #
ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP"
ifconfig_fxp1="inet 10.10.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
hostname="CC69971-A";
linux_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"
moused_type="auto"
moused_enable="YES"
gateway_enable="YES"
natd_enable="YES"
natd_interface="fxp0"
natd_flags="-f /etc/natd.conf"
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="router"
# -- sysinstall generated deltas -- #
saver="green"

I say some because things like the setting up of the network cards (fxp0 and fxp1) are working correctly as well is the setting up of the host name.

The gateway_enable line, firewall_enable, firewall_type and natd_enable do not seem to be overiding what is in /etc/defaults/rc.conf - I even did a sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding and found it was still set to 0.

I did go in an edit /etc/defaults/rc.conf and changed the respective lines to match my rc.conf and everything works fine. In other words, I made my /etc/defaults/rc.conf have gateway_enable="YES", natd_enable="YES", etc and after a reboot, things work.

Anyone have any idea why this would happen?

Thanks in advance!
Shawn

AFAIR, it's been like that since forever.

If you remove the hostname entry in /etc/hosts when at school, does it
work?

It could be your PS/2-to-DB9 adapter.  I've had regular (2-button or
3-button) mice that have refused to work using such an adapter; running it
through a KVM switch could be enhancing the problem if it works while
directly connection.

Also, I've heard reports that some (intelligent) mice refuse to work
through switchboxes.

That's what's frustrating.  It doesn't work either I have that hostname/IP
entry in /etc/hosts or not when I am at school.

Thanks.

It may be a hardware thing.  I've had this problem with other OS's as
well.  Some computers' PS/2 ports just don't seem to like those
switchboxes (Dell Optiplex 590s have this issue; I use them for
gateways), and it's even flakier when there are PS/2-serial adaptors
involved.  Try a combination that doesn't require an adaptor, if you
have that option.

Frankly, I've given up, and just attach a cheap mouse to each box when
necessary, and share only the keyboard and monitor.

Ah. I forgot.  You need to recompile your kernel with 

options		VGA_WIDTH90		# support 90 column modes

before that will work.

If any of the modes in the vidcontrol manpage complain, make sure
you've got an appropriate font loaded.  That's about it.

What version are you running, Andrei?  I suppose the other option is to

Yup.  This is a normal function...recall that un*x machines were often
used in lab setups...where many people could use the same machine at
various times.

If someone had xlock running and there were no option but a powercyle to
regain access to the workstation....it would be a bad thing.

to quote:

XLOCK(1)                                                 XLOCK(1)


NAME
       xlock  -  Locks  the  local  X display until a password is
       entered.
....


NOTE ON ETIQUETTE
       Xlock should not be used on public terminals when there is
       a high demand for them.

       If you find a public terminal  that  has  been  locked  by
       another  user  and there are no other terminals available,
       and the terminal appears to have  been  left  idle  for  a
       while  (normally  more than 15 minutes), it is fair to try
       to reset the session in some manner.

...

 -/+allowroot
            The allowroot option  allows  the  root  password  to
            unlock  the  server  as  well as the user who started
            xlock.  May not be able  to  turn  this  on  and  off
            depending  on  your  system and how xlock was config-
            ured.

I recieved some referrals to the XFree86 site, but as it turns out, the 
problem wasn't X.

A thread on the TNT2 chipset revealed the answer.

While installing I got the question to select a "security profile" (low, 
medium, secure) and I thought "I don't need those servers yet, so I'll choose 
maximum security." Unfortunately, the consequence is that at startup the 
kern.securelevel is raised to 2. At levels over 0 the X server won't start.

After removing the corresponding lines in rc.conf, everything worked fine.

Maybe some warning about this in the installation program is in order. Most 
newbies would not expect a network security profile to block the running of 
X.

With kind regards, Rogier Steehouder

     NETBSD 1.5 has been released, they changed rc(8) system to rc.d =
mechanism, replaced postfix with
  sendmail, enhancements to ftpd, it is interesting, should FreeBSD =

=46rom /sys/i386/conf/LINT I find that device xe is:
xe: Xircom/Intel EtherExpress Pro100/16 PC Card ethernet controller.
so you probably have a line in your kernel config like:
device xe which you can remove or comment out.

Hi all,

            I just read the release notes from www.bsdtoday.com on netbsd
1.5. It seems to be the other way round as sendmail is replaced by postfix

Since 3 days ago, our freeBSD box has automatically power-down-then-up 3
times. (This has happend only 3 times, all in the past 3 days.)

The symptom is neither of a 'reboot' command, nor a power button activation,
but a reset button activation (or someone pressing the power button twice,
or switching off and on the power point on the wall, which are publicly
accessible). The last 2 times during the boot i saw "... file system not
cleanly unmounted. rebooting automatically".

During all these reboots, i did not notice any power failure to my PC or the
office lighting. The freebsd box is in the same room, 20 meters away from
me.

Is there any software/hardware fault that can trigger a power-reset? How do
I confirm the cause? If it's a disgruntled employee, then how do i track her
down?

Hooray! Ding dong, the witch is dead...

In this case, it would seem that FreeBSD could indeed "learn something" 
from NetBSD. Can't we have a campaign to banish Sendmail to the ports
collection? The FreeBSD handbook could shrink dramatically if Postfix
were the default MTA.

Thanks for taking some of the bite out of my embarrassment...
Damn if I won't be walking with a cane and popping Geritol steady, before 
I get finished RTFMs and getting a handle on all of this ;,)

I agree it's about as confusing as we in Canada having to deal with some 
folks who insist on using Fahrenheit still instead of Celsius (not that I 
prefer one over the other). Even configuring FBSD, we still use pre-CIDR 
notation. Oh well .... it's all education I suppose. Thanks.

Aaron,

This brought up fond memories :) I used this script a long time ago when I
opened my first business as an ISP and I found an old tar file (4+ yrs
old) with it still in it, so here you go, it worked great for me. This
script runs on the backup server and then logs into each machine thru ssh
as the operater user and then executes a dump back to the backup
server. This did level 0 dumps each time mostly becuase I was much more 
paranoid back then and I was still fairly new to FreeBSD and UNIX in
general. You could easily turn this into a much more functional script
very easily. you will need to set up an account (operator in my case) that
has all the permissions necessary to execute the script.

NOTE: this was using a 8gb HP DAT drive as the hardware

Aaron,

Just to be perfectly clear :), the cyc(1,2,3) words in the script is just
the hostnames of the boxes this script was backing up. replace to your
setup accordingly.

No it won't. /usr/ports/security/ssh is not OpenSSH. If you want to
install OpenSSH from the ports into a 3.x system,

  /usr/ports/security/openssh

Neither /usr/ports/security/ssh or /usr/ports/security/ssh2 use
OpenSSL.

Using MySQL was my original plan, till I started reading more. It would 
have done everything I needed perfectly.  But with the amount of concurrent 
accesses, I am worried that it would become the bottleneck in my program.
I'm not storing a lot of data.. Reason I've been trying for GDBM as opposed 
to text files, is I've heard the programs run faster when the data is in 
binary format...

 $ dump -0f - /filesystem | ssh remote-host "restore -rf -"

I used to do it all of the time. Attached is a script I used to use to
backup a filesystem on another machine. It's pretty heavily
commented. The script actually does the opposite of the above. It is
run on the machine doing the restore.

What do you mean by a "pattern?" Anyway, to prompt for an IP from a
script,

  #!/bin/sh

  echo -n "IP Address: "
  read IP

  ping $IP

But wouldn't it be easier to specify the IP at the command line?

What is the physical setup? Just to be sure, I am guessing the FreeBSD
machine has two interfaces. One is in the hub and one in the ADSL
modem. And I assume the OpenBSD and Win2k machines are both on the
internal net? Just for future reference, which machine is which in the
list of IPs above? Can the gateway machine itself use the Internet
connection? What is the output of,

  # ifconfig
  # arp -an
  # netstat -rn
  # ipfw show

On the gateway?

I'm looking for a portal system that we can modify for our business. What
opensource portal system would you recommend? Thanks!

Hi.
Can i somehow write .cue/.bin images to a CD with burncd?
I've tried by just doing 
# burncd -s 4 -f /dev/acd0c data file.bin fixate
(the .cue file said that it was mode1).
This didn't work, complained about "/kernel: acd0: WRITE_BIG - ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=24 ascq=00 error=04" and only finished to 95%.
In Nero on Windows, this worked well though, with the same type of CD.

any ideas?

Well don't get too used to it.

Then there will be an IP address for everything on the planet,
even your pop-up toaster and microwave will have one .. :)

Hello!

Is it possible to set up FreeBSD to use a Eicon Diva T/A ISDN Modem with
two B-channels?  Just know It works with one B-channel. I have lines
from my ISP.

Best Regards

Hi there

I have a tnt2 and running 4.2-release

when I startx with kde/gnome in 8bpp, which is the default, the icons and
buttons and other widgets either show up black or not at all.

When i startx as follows
startx -- -bpp 16

everything is good
how do i get x to start at 16bpp by default?

Thanks

Hiya


I've acquired a Compaq CD Tower which consists of seven SCSI CDROM drives
and I was wondering if they're supported under FreeBSD.  I don't have the
exact
model name to hand, but the controller board has a couple of Symbiosis
controllers
and an Intel 960.

Anyone had any luck with this device?

G'day.

I've just bought a new Toshiba Satellite 1710CDS, which has a MiniPCI
NIC onboard.  On booting a recent -stable kernel, with a 4.0-RELEASE
installation (is that a bad idea?  I don't have a newer cd to install
from, and I need the NIC running to upgrade) I get the following
output from the kernel:

dc0: <Accton EN2242 MiniPCI 10/100BaseTX> irq 10 at device 17.0 on pci0
dc0: couldn't map ports/memory
device_probe_and_attach: dc0 attach returned 6

Any suggestions?  Should I try -current?

localhost?

However, this obviously won't work to resolve addresses during the
installation process, so if you're at that stage slap another NS's IP
address in (obviously, make sure that (a) it responds to your queries
and (b) you're permitted to use it). Then edit /etc/resolv.conf when
everything is in place.

There's nothing that says your resolver library needs to be configured
to use your locally-running nameserver; it just seems the natural thing
to do.

Looks like a 256AV without AC97 Codec.

Boot the machine without pcm enabled, then issue as root pciconf -l, you
should see an output like this one :

On my laptop, the neomagic is the 0x00dd1014 card. Check the card number
corresponding in your laptop and then add it to the badcards struct in
neomagic.c
/usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/neomagic.c
...
static void 	 nm_wrbuf(struct sc_info *, int, u_int32_t, int);

static u_int32_t badcards[] = {
	0x0007103c,
	0x008f1028,
	0x00dd1014, /* add after this one */
};
#define NUM_BADCARDS (sizeof(badcards) / sizeof(u_int32_t))
...

Recompile your kernel with pcm enabled, the machine shouldn't hang
anymore.

device pcm doesn't work on my box, I have to use the following :
device		pcm0	at isa? port 0x530 irq 5 drq 0 flags 0x11
following the settings found in bios and man pcm.

edit your "default depth" setting in /etc/XF86Config, assuming you're
running 3.3.6. make sure you have the proper resolutions under each
setting. if you have a res that your card/monitor won't support,
you'll have prolems when you start changing them. keep in mind that
whatever res is set as the first one in that group, that one is your
default resolution when your desktop session starts.

And write a PR about this (send-pr) so it can be added when a new
release of FreeBSD is coming out!

I had the same problem with it: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=17796

My server has LL link to ISP and has only one public IP address (x.x.x.x). I
try to count bytes from ISP to my interface with public IP address.

1. IP firewall rule for this:

0520 allow ip from any to x.x.x.x via ppp0

2. IP Filter accounting rule for this (I tried to use first rule and then
second one, results were the same):

@1 count in on ppp0 from any to any
or
@1 count in on ppp0 from any to x.x.x.x/32

Number of bytes on IP Filter accounting rule is more then number of bytes in
IP Firewall rule in two times (I used ipfw and ipfstat command to view
counters).
I used the same rules for counting incoming bytes on LAN and IP Firewall and
IP Filter give equal results.

What did I wrong?

ps: I use IP Firewall and IP Filter together, but don't think that it is
problem, because on LAN results, as I expected, are correct and equal.

Does anyone know of a version of free bsd that is designed for embedded pc
systems that can be used for industrial control apps ?? or what is the
smallest size I can get free down to, only needs nic software, basic kernel
and the control app (size will be minus control app as I have yet to build
it)

Regards Kathy

free and loving it

I experienced the very same thing two weeks ago with (then) FreeBSD 4.1 BETA.
It could not have been a powerfailure, the monitor hanging on the same outlet
still had power.

I suspect it is a hardware problem, maybe a bad power supply. Healthd showed,
that my power supply indeed delivers very unstable values.

If this does not happen again, I am happy. If it does, the first thing I'll
do is buy a better power supply.

Of course that doesn't help you much, but I wanted you to know that you are
not the only one with this problem.


cheers, Tobe

Hi

I just noted that on a 4-STABLE box (well as of a week ago) that 
the OpenSSH sshd_config uses auth.notice and that this is not sent
anywhere other than the console (not even sure about that without
going to the box to check) so you need to edit /etc/syslog.conf and
do something like
security.*;auth.info                            /var/log/security
(note no whitespace other than tabs)
as root 'touch /var/log/security' and send the syslogd process a HUP

you should then see syslog events related to sshd in /var/log/security.

Since 4.0 (I think) there is, see your syslog.conf and the man-page
for it. That's where ipfw is logging.

Also,
I don't know if this would affect either of you, but this problem has popped
up a few times with some RealTek NICs. I had this problem, swapped the NIC
and my box has now been up over 40 days without a hitch.

The first time I heard that one, they were referring to the difference
in speed between binary and packed decimal data formats. That's not
likely to be relevant today. Storing data on disk in binary format is
faster than storing it in ASCII because you have to convert it from
ASCII to binary at some point, so you do it once instead of once per
access. However, unless the conversion process is very convoluted,
that difference will be small compared to the time to do the actual
disk I/O. If you are going to use all the data every time the program
runs, gdbm will require more disk access than a simple text file. What
gdbm is good at is keyed access, where you want one record from among
many. It provides an efficient way to go from an arbitrary key to a
disk block.

Of course, a keyed table in an SQL server does the same thing - and
good SQL servers are designed for dealing with the problems of
simultaneous access and update. If you need to update the data while
it's in use, a good SQL server will will do all the hard work for
you. That said, MySQL could still turn into a bottleneck.

Dear Sirs,

I'm totally new in FreeBSD and that's why I would like to ask you a few
questions. Until now I have used Red Hat Linux and Slackware Linux.
What exactly is an ISO image? Can I /and how if it's so/ install FreeBSD
by it?
I hope you can help me. Thank you.

                                                           Sincerely,

I hope someone has some wisdom to share (other than not using cheap NICs). I have
a Netgear FA 310tx installed on my 4.0 FreeBSD box. It has worked fine for the
last couple of months but occasionally I get the following message:

dc0: failed to force tx and rx to idle state

This message will appear on the console every now and then but yesterday and
today, I get this message and the NIC just quits, or seems to. ifconfig dc0 shows
it to be up and you can ping it from the console but its not sending packets over
the lan.

Until I can get a better NIC, is there a way to restart/reset this hardware
without having to take the server down?

Thanks

Subject: PCCARD support - Ricoh RL5C478 - Sony Vaio F809

I have installed the 4.1 stable release on my Sony Vaio - no trouble with
the screen up to 1024x768 but that's not the issue.

I cannot get the PCCards to work.

(I've trawled the postings and discovered one other user claiming to have
the RICOH RL5c478 working but that was with a 3.5.1release  + PAO3-2000102
but  I believe that PAO has been rolled into 4.1.)

I've tried booting from a 3.5.1 pccard installation floppy but with no
success and 
from a 4.2 installation floppy - neither pick up my Xircom Realport 10/100
card (16 bit)
although the source code for the XE driver indicates that this should be
fine.

So what are the symptoms ?

The pccardd detects cards being inserted and removed but comes up with 'no
card in database for "(null)"("(null)") '.

Thinking that this just needed tweaking the card recognition program I
started looking at the "readcis.c" file to see if I could implement a
kludge.

However,  not wanting to go to the effort if my diagnosis was wrong I
decided to try a different card first.

I therefore tried an ancient Adaptec Slimscsi (1460a) card that is listed in
the  /etc/defaults/pccard.conf file
but got the same 'no card in database ...' response.

So as a test I tried this

insert Xircom RE100 card

pccardc dumpcis >xxx

swap Xircom card for  Adaptec slimscsi 1460a

pccardc dumpcis >yyy

cmp xxx yyy

the result - the cis dumps are the same despite the different cards.

I even tried the same thing with a reboot in-between but got the same
result.

I guess this means that communication with the cards is broken as the CIS is
not
being read properly  which is a shame given that mandrake Linux on the same
machine is fine.


dmesg shows :

...
pcic-pci0: <Ricoh RL5478 PCI-CardBus Bridge> at device 12.0 on pci0
pcic-pci1: <Ricoh RL5478 PCI-CardBus Bridge> at device 12.1 on pci0

pcic0 : management irq 10
pccard0: <PC Card bus -- kludge version > on pcic0
pccard1: <PC Card bus -- kludge version > on pcic0
...


has anyone any suggestion as to what I can do (apart from give up :-)    ).

It's a bit-by-bit image of a CD. CD-burning software will let you make a
CD from it, which should (if your hardware/BIOS supports it) be directly
bootable. So you get the ISO, burn a CD and boot it, dropping you
straight into the install with all the bits and pieces you should need
available locally.

If it's broken really badly - don't fix it either.

Have you tried 'ifconfig dc0 down' followed by 'ifconfig dc0 up'?

Yes, I tried that before I sent this to the list. The state changes from up to
down and when brought back up it still does not pass packets.

Jim,
The situation is more complicated...
As far as I told in my previous e-mail: Single User mode is also password
protected, and floppy & CD-ROM is not accessible.

This is covered in the FAQ.  It has nothing to do with "cracking" the 
machine's security.  And why would he need a floppy?  All you need to do 
is:

   1)  Reboot the machine.
   2)  Press a key other than enter.
   3)  Type boot -s at the prompt.
   4)  When it asks which shell to use, hit enter.
   5)  At the root prompt, do "mount -u /".
   6)  Run "mount -a".
   7)  Run "passwd root" and change the password.

See http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/admin.html#FORGOT-ROOT-PW for the FAQ 
entry.

Okay, You are right. FreeBSD box has 2 NICs. One goes to the HUB and one
goes to the ADSL modem. The rest of the computers are going to the HUB also.

They are all on internal network. I will sent output of the commands later
this evening as soon as I get home. But still When I SSH to any machine
running OpenBSD from Win2K, FreeBSD drops connection after SSH session is
established.

What is the physical setup? Just to be sure, I am guessing the FreeBSD
machine has two interfaces. One is in the hub and one in the ADSL
modem. And I assume the OpenBSD and Win2k machines are both on the
internal net? Just for future reference, which machine is which in the
list of IPs above? Can the gateway machine itself use the Internet
connection? What is the output of,

  # ifconfig
  # arp -an
  # netstat -rn
  # ipfw show

On the gateway?

Hi,

Yesterday I installed the new 4.2 release of FreeBSD (I downloaded the
ISO), and I noticed (or I must be terribly wrong - in that case I'm sorry
for this mail :) ) that apache and lynx were not included. I wonder why,
since the install menu traditionally even uses lynx to display some
documents... Apart from that, the installation went perfect (no errors on
the cdrom). If the 4.2 release indeed does not contain these packages, I
can't help to wonder why.


Thanks,

Wouter Van Hemel

Depending on the installation you performed, it is definitely possible that
lynx did not get installed.  The remedy is easy:

puter# cd /usr/ports/www/lynx
puter# make install

That should get you lynx.  Apache does not install by default, and I don't
recommend installing it from the ports collection, mainly because the ports
collection can sometimes be out of synch with the latest version.  Grab the
latest from apache.org and read the installation guide.

I would like to know whether there is a way to do adaptive load balancing
with the intel pro100 dual port server adapter?  I know that the card
works with the fxp driver and shows up as fxp0 and fxp1.  If there is no
way to do adaptive load balancing, is there a way to do link
redundancy?  Since the card shows up as two cards, I realize this would be
some sort of software solution.  We are also using a 3com 3300 switch
which also supports port trunking to aggregate links together into one
faster link.

How do I re-install postgresql7  port
(  /usr/ports/databases/postgresql7 )

I have missed files and I need to re-install.
But when I go to that directory and type "make install"
nothing happens.

Hey all,

I've just been through pages of the archives, and man ifconfig, etc, but
can't
seem to find what I need to know.  Is it possible to run multiple virtual 
interfaces on one physical NIC, and configure them all with DHCP?  If so,
what do I need in rc.conf to make it work each time?

I have tried adding fxp0_alias0 to the list of interfaces, and an entry
corresponding, like ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="DHCP".  Reboot doesn't to the
desired, though.

What changes to dhclient.conf are needed (I have the bare default one)?

Any thoughts on this most gratefully received.

Dan Bye

What kind of information gets put in /var/log/security?  I have a few 4.x
boxes and there is nothing in those files.  Does it only complain when a
break-in is detected or when someone is blocked?

Subject: GNOME's panel and signal 6

I've looked up this problem on both gnome's site, and the FreeBSD mailing
list archive, but I can't find anything current on it.

I'm running the latest gnome* on FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE (built from source
out of ports), and periodically all my applets in the gnome panel like to
short out with a SIGABRT (signal 6) when gnome starts up.  I'm using
sawfish-0.34 as window manager, but the problem also happens under
afterstep.  It seems to be a panel-related problem, but it doesn't seem to
occur on my friends' Linux boxes.  Admittedly, I have not recompiled with
debugging symbols, but I wanted to know if anyone else had run into this
problem, and if they found a way to workaround or fix it.  The best thing
I've found so far (and I'm sure this is a 100% successful workaround) is
to disable event sounds.

Thanks.

Joe Clarke

Hello,

I'm looking to build high density (rack-wise) fbsd systems for a
clustering arrangement (a really boring one, our scripts chop the job up
and distribute it... no PVM here...).  I need to find a good motherboard
with onboard video/network that freebsd will like.  I was looking at
Intel 810/815s, but I've heard some bad stuff through the grapevine
about them... Has anyone had good luck with ASUS/TYAN/etc with these
items onboard?  Or have you had good luck with i810/815? 

Thanks!

hace una semana instale el freebsd 4.1 y levante el kde con el comando 
startx, al momento de adicionar el paquete de base de datos mysql el sistema 
operativo se colgo, lo unico que hice pfue resetear la maquina pero me pedia 
el pathname de /bin y como no sabia que ruta poner alli entonces decidi 
instalarlo de nuevo pero ahora ya no levanta la parte grafica no se que esta 
pasando cuando ejecuto en el shell el comando startx solo me aparece una 
ventana XTerm con el promt del sistema; ante si me levantaba una ventana 
similar a la de windows, no se que estara pasando porque ya he vuelto ha 
instalar 10 veces y en todas ocurre el msmo error; cuando salgo al modo 
texto me dice que no se ha podido encontrar el archivo fvwn2rc en /etc/X11R6

no se que esta pasando por favor cualquier sugerencia me la envian

I have had very good luck with Tyan's Tomcat i810ef.. The only real
limitation being the 512MB RAM.


I ran FreeBSD 4.0 on it for a long time. I had to finaly take it apart and
put win98 on it for my Grandfather. It's a dog with 98.


Good luck,


Erin

I am running FBSD 3.4R. ipfw is not listed in the syslog.conf file. I'll
keep looking.

This morning I put the divert rule back in and changed my ssh rule to be
added before it. 

   ${fwcmd} add 40 pass log tcp from any to any 22 in via ${oif} setup
 
# ipfw show
00040    2      88 allow log logamount 100 tcp from any to any 22 in recv
vx0 setup
00100 6155 3594957 divert 8668 ip from any to any via vx0
00150    0       0 allow ip from any to any via lo0
...


Now I get the network and ssh.
BUT..., I have not seen this done in any of the published
configurations. Can someone shed some light here?

Hi,

I tried to compile MySQL on a FreeBSD 4.0, 4.1 and 4.1.1 (all RELEASE)
boxes, but they all run out of memory. And the best box has 128MB memory and
256MB page memory, but it still runs out of memory! It did compile using
*shudder* Red Hat Linux, tho... anyknow knows what I am doing wrong? I
compile from the official TGZ file from the MySQL.com site.

Thanks!

Please stop shouting, you are hurting my ears!

This and many other questions could easily be found in
the Freebsd handbook.

Dear Sir,
I am writing to say that today I configured FreeBSD to act as a dialup
gateway for a small network of 20 computers. 
Since this is not a very small number I was wondering whether you can
advice me on TWO things:

1. Being a dialup connection (leased line -33600 bps link) I think it will
be rather a slow one. Is it possible to run a proxy server like SQUID to
help those who will be surfing the net? 

2. Is it practical to run a mail server (I prefer EXIM) in this kind of
setup. If so I'll be very grateful if you can advise me on how to go about
it. 
I am looking at using a totally FreeBSD solution since this is a setup for
a small community college that I am nobly supporting. I would like them to
be able to send and receive e-mail both internally and to the Internet.
Can I do this with EXIM via a dialup?


Thank you in advance for the help.

Hi all,

I've been having some strange problems with a FreeBSD 4.0 machine
randomly rebooting its self with no explanation. The machine was
cleanly shutdown, ie.  syslogd exits with signal 15, file systems
are also clean on reboot, but I don't know what caused it to reboot.
Maybe a kernel panic? But then shouldn't wtmp report a crash? I
also don't see any hardware errors in the messages logs. *sigh*

Anyhow, any hints would be very much appreciated...

Thanks,

Cove

The wtmp file reports (no one was logged into the machine when it
was rebooted):

reboot           ~                         Wed Dec  6 22:12 
shutdown         ~                         Wed Dec  6 22:10 

And a lastcomm |grep 22:10 reports:

Something that seems a bit strange to me (I really don't know enough
about the acct loging system though) is that the logs are out of
order:

I've experienced similar phenomenon with certain PCMCIA NICs
(involving top-quality brands of all involved equipment), so I've come
to suspect some bizarre interaction with BIOS in some cases.  I've
known some hard-resets to be associated with cheap WinModems, too, on,
um, other platforms.  Very disconcerting.

hi,
try ./configure --with-low-memory. 
that should do the job.

And ISO image, as so commonly thrown around a term as it is, is an image of
for this example an iso9660 filesystem image, which would be expanded onto a
cd for basic purposes. There are close to 20,000 ISO standards now I
believe. You can get an ISO9660 image from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/.0/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/

If you need further help, feel free to ask.

Kris

You are given the option POST install to add any packages from the ports that
you'd like on your system. lynx should be included in the menu listing, and I
know for sure that apache is. If not, cd /usr/ports/www/lynx and type 'make
&& make install'. That will install lynx for you.

If you need further assistance, please feel free to ask.

    Regards,

Kris

Hi all me again..

 Currently I have this configuration in my home network

@Home -->(into rl0) FreeBSD GW (ipfw & natd) -->(out of rl1 & into
Hub) -->from Hub to 2 boxes (one win98, one FreeBSD)..

the rl1 is configured as 192.168.12.157 netmask 255.255.255.0

With the two internal boxes on 192.168.12.2 & 192.168.12.3

Now the actual problem/situation... the Hub that I'm using now is faulty &
I'm not able to get a new one for a while.. so I was going to take the
internal Win98 box off the network.. and plug the internal FreeBSD box
directly to the rl1 of the GW (w/ a crossover cable), removing the need
for the hub.. now my question is this: do I need to change my
configuration for rl1 at all? The reason that I'm asking is that rl1 is
going from a 1->many relation to a 1->1 relation.. so I'm not sure if the
same configuration is valid.. the relevant config files are below:

/etc/rc.conf --->

network_interfaces="rl0 rl1"
ifconfig_rl0="inet xx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.254.0"
ifconfig_rl1="inet 192.168.12.157 netmask 255.255.255.0"
hostname="gw.carpoolbc.com"
gateway_enable="Yes"
defaultrouter="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"

firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="/usr/local/etc/rc.firewall"
firewall_quiet="YES"
natd_enable="YES"
natd_interface="rl0"
natd_flags="-f /usr/local/etc/natd.cf"
named_enable="YES"


/usr/local/etc/rc.firewall (I know this is a very bad config =] )--->

add allow all from any to any


/usr/local/etc/natd.cf --->

log no
deny_incoming no
use_sockets yes
same_ports yes
unregistered_only yes



Thanks in advance..

RSN

I had a bad motherboard that caused random reboots.  Once I replaced it, I
never had another reboot.  

I think it was from PC CHIPS.  It had an 'illegal' BIOS chip.

Hi guys,

I'm getting these errors:
{webairadmin@gremlin 3:07pm} ~> vmstat
vmstat: undefined symbols:
 _kmemstatistics _bucket _zlist 

In my experience that usually means the world and kernel are out of sync,
but I'm wondering if there can be any other causes. I first had
4.0-release on this machine, installed from the ISO, It had the same
errors, I then cvsupped and make {build,install}world and kernel fine...
but I still get the same errors.

Here's what I'm running:

{webairadmin@gremlin 3:07pm} ~> uname -a
FreeBSD gremlin.webair.com 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Thu Dec  7
13:27:59 EST 2000     root@gremlin.webair.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GREMLIN
i386

Freshly compiled today:

{webairadmin@gremlin 3:07pm} ~> ls -l /kernel
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2130424 Dec  7 13:31 /kernel*
{webairadmin@gremlin 3:07pm} ~> ls -l /usr/bin/top
-r-xr-sr-x  1 root  kmem  32312 Dec  7 13:39 /usr/bin/top*


Is there any other cause for this? I'm totally at a loss.


Thanks,

the firmware seems a bit old ....however

I'm running a couple of these :

dac960ptl firmware 4.08.0-33, bios 4.1,  32mb edo cache flashrom 512kb

with 18gb disks and although it seems counter intuitive, try setting 
bios/head translation option of mylex card to 2gb geometry NOT   >8gb.

Hello,

I am going to install FreeBSD 4.2 on one of my machines today.  I have =
installed FreeBSD several times on different machines but I have a few =
questions.

I am going to need to run XFree86 4 (which I will install from the ports =
collection) and KDE 2 (which I am not planning on installing from the =
ports collection) on this machine, when installing FreeBSD do I need to =
select an X user install?

If I don't select the X user install and I install XFree86 4 and KDE 2 =
will everything run properly?

My primary concern is not having files from 3.3.6 hanging around that I =
do not need. =20

If this isn't the best way to accomplish this I welcome your suggestions =
and feedback.

Thanks in advance,

Jason Sheets

Hey!

I'm really curious to hear anything you find out.  I'm having the EXACT
same problems, but have a different setup...

4.1R upgraded via binary upgrade (sysinstall) to 4.2R.

cloned the system disk (dump/restore) to another disk which is the nfs
mounted root for diskless clients.

the system itself is fine, vmstat, top, pstat all work.
the diskless client boots, mounts root, runs startup scripts...
everything works, BUT. 
I get those exact same errors when I run vmstat.  top gives nlist
errors, pstat -s gives undefined symbol: _numvnodes.

I've rebuilt libkvm, rebuilt the kernel, ensured /dev/mem, /dev/kmem are
OK, /proc is mounted, regenerated ld-elf.so.hints, I have no clue what
is broken!  running top/pstat through ktrace, both are having problems
when the linker tries to resolve those symbols, from libkvm, it looks
like. (kldsym() fails)

I'm hoping that your solution will work for me too, in some way :)  
Anyone?

Hi all,
I'm using FreeBSD as a file/print server.  For FreeBSD, Windows, and
Macs.  That is where I want to be. <g>  However I'm having a dumb
problem.
The printer is an Apple 630 with a Linksys network connection plugged
into the parallel port.  The IP for the linksys is in the  etc/hosts
file.  I can telnet into the linksys, so it's showing up on the net OK,
and I can print to it from the windows boxes.
My problem is that I need a proper filter for the printcap file.  Is
there a proper filter on the dist disk?

How about printing with the apple port?  I feel real dumb having to have
this print server plugged into the back of the printer, when there is a
perfectly good 10BaseT connection just sitting there.   My mac on the
same network sees the printer just fine.  However the internal network
connection doesn't seem to see any but Mac systems.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Where can I find a list of web stats packages to run on a FreeBSD 
box which runs Apache?  I used to run mkstats but that no longer 
exists.  I need something that is reliable, supported, and free.  
Since I am not on the list, send any replies directly to 
kris@grinz.com  - Thanks,
Kris

modlogan (http://www.kneschke.de/projekte/modlogan/) has an output module
that looks just like webalizer, but modlogan has many different plugins
for input.  It can do extended log format, common log format, squid logs,
wuftp logs, M$ II$ logs, siemens hicom 116, elmeg, and isdn logs.

You can also write your own plugins etc etc.  And its GPL'd.

I've got a Linksys Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet
10/100 network card. Model NC100 version 2.0

I got if_al.c and if_alreg.h from freebsd.org.

The only instructions said to build compiler
environment on FreeBSD system and compile source
code to produce a binary code.

I put the two files in /sys/pci/
Do I need to add any device lines or whatever
to kernal? Put the files in some other directory?

I've got FreeBSD 3.2-Release.

Thanks for any pointers.

Bruce Froemke

You are not the first to have such problems.
(And it has been discussed on this list before. Please search the archives.)
For me the cause was that I did not use /boot/loader to load the kernel but
loaded the kernel directly by specifying it in /boot.config.
If you have a file /boot.config then remove it (or rename it) and reboot.
If that doesn't help I am afraid I can't help you.

I've been happy with sqwebmail, which you can read about at inter7.com.
You'll need to use maildir delivery, which you can get from postfix or
qmail, but it's pretty flexible and reasonably powerful. It can be compiled
with full SSL support as well, which is nice.

I have a Cyclades 8-port serial card(8YoP) installed in a FreeBSD =

port (TTCY or CUAC) after about 40-seconds. The commands are spaced =
about 2-seconds apart.
When I use the CUAA port I have no problems at all.=20

You may want to take a look at NeoMail (neomail.sourceforge.net)  It reads
mail right from /var/mail, stores folders in standard mailbox format
(compatible with Pine) under user homedirs, and has a whole whack of other
goodies.  It's a nice, slick solution if you have a bunch of shell or POP3
clients to whom you want to give WebMail access to.

I have the following questions on the new ASUS A7M266 and Freebsd. 
Link: http://www.asus.com.tw/whatsnew/whatsnew2010.html

1. Is there support for the new AMD 761 chipset?

Hi,

I am trying to install a FreeBSD to my computer, but I do not have a
standard FreeBSD CD. However I have a CD-writer, so I downloaded all the
necessary distribution files from your FTP site
(ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/.0/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.2-RELEASE/) and then
copied them on the CD. I booted from floppies, and in the "options" menu
specified the installation from the CD-ROM. All went fine while it
installed the distribution files, but then it displayed the message that
it can't install kernel.

My computer does not support booting from a CD-ROM, so in any case I
will have to boot from floppies. Can you tell me what configuration the
standard CD uses, and how that might be different from the one I used on
my CD (I had all distributions placed in the proper directory on the CD,
ex. D:\BIN\bin.aa, D:\BIN\bin.ab, etc...). I had the following
distributions on my CD in this manner: \bin, \dict, \doc, \manpages,
\ports, \proflibs, \src, \XF86336.

Please inform me of a way to create a valid CD for installation using a
CD-writer,

thank you for your help,

Andrey Mavrichev.

Your Link suggests you are using an ALPHA platform.

If you are not then I would suggest that be the problem.

You should be fine with a CD-writer.

Thanks for replying,

Was this problem with FreeBSD?

I'm not aware of any Bay Networks / Netgear software for FreeBSD. Part of the
problem I believe is that I am in an older building with mixed topology. My area
of the building is not yet re-wired so my 10/100 card plugs into a hub via UTP and
then travels over 10base-2 until it reaches the nearest switch. I read the man
page on ifconfig which mentions "media type" and "media opt" parameters; however,
I'm not sure if this card supports any additional parameters. I looked on Netgears
site and didn't find anything useful. 

I would be grateful if you or anyone else knows of additional parameters regarding
the FA310TX.

Thanks again

Mike

Hi Chuck,

I had this problem myself when I installed Eterm. Don't know how to
solve it, but since there were no other answers, I thought you might
like to know how I "overcame" it. 

I made a symlink from libpng.so.3 to libpng.so.4 and the problem went
away. Copying does the same thing, but you waste a bit more disk
space.

If anyone knows of a better way, I'm all ears too...  ;-)

Regards,

Wee Guan.

Since nobody else answered, I'll take a crack at it based on what I
know about .cue files from cdrdao.

If I understand things correctly, .cue file is a table of contents
describing the tracks in the .bin file. If your .bin file consists of
a single track, burning it with burncd as you describe should work. If
it's multiple tracks - well, that could explain the problem you're
seeing.

At some point, the ATA drivers may be hooked up so you can use cdrdao
on FreeBSD. For now, burning a cd with an IDE burner in DAO mode on
FreeBSD involves writing the code to support that.

Today I decided to move /tmp from the root filesystem to /usr/tmp.

I did this because I got a "filesystem full" message after mutt tried to
close a very large mbox. I decided that /tmp should be a symlink to
/usr/tmp...

Here's what I did:

# cd /
# cp tmp /usr
# mv tmp tmp.old
# ln -s /usr/tmp tmp

Unfortunately, I did not boot into single user mode; in fact, I did this
within XWindows. Sure it seems like a stupid thing now...

Of course, my X session got a little flaky on me. After a reboot, I am
now unable to run startx. The screen goes black, the keyboard shuts
off... 

How do I begin to clean up my mess??

I'm assuming that /tmp is in the / partition:
boot from floppy, then mount the device that is normally / as /mnt and fix
the problem.

hi everyone.  i've searched the freebsd lists for the problem below
but have come up empty-handed.  i'm hoping someone out there might
know what's happening.

i have a dell dimension 300mhz p2 with 2 13 gig IDE disks, a
diamond viper 770 agp graphics card, an intel etherexpress interface,
and phoenix bios 4.0 release 6.0 revision a09 (this has the fix for
using large disks).

i've installed freebsd 4.2 with the boot floppies over ftp.
everything went smoothly.

the problem is on boot.  i get the prompt saying "f1 for disk 0" or
whatever.  i hit f1.  then right before it does that 10 second
countdown where you "press enter to continue...", the system resets
itself.  it looks like a hard reset.  and the cycle continues until i
shut it off...

about half a page of text scrolls by right before the reset, but the
system resets itself so fast that i have no idea what it said.  i also
tried hitting lots of keys to slow it down, etc., to no avail.

i'm mystified.  i have freebsd 4.2 installed successfully on a
different computer, so i did it right at least once.

any ideas?

thanks,
david

p.s.: please cc: me on reply since i'm not subscribed to this list.

Hi all,

I have just one quick question. In RH Linux I always used to set up routes
like this: ``route add -host 1.2.3.4 eth0:5'', which caused packets to
that host to come from the IP address associated with eth0:5, instead of
the default route. I did my best with the FreeBSD route and various
parameters, but can't get it right... (I have an xl0 interface with a
few IP addresses)

Any clues on this? Sorry to bother you with this :)

walter

Minor nit...domain is deprecated although it will probably continue to
work forever. 

The doc strongly suggests using the search keyword in its place. If
there is a single domain specified, it works the same a domain, but it
allows the listing of multiple domain so that it will try the name
specified in each of the domains listed in the search directive.

search mydomain.edu otherdomain.com specialdomain.com
nameserver 192.192.192.5
nameserver 24.1.0.64

addendum:

what's so mysterious to me is that the kernel from the boot floppies
worked fine.  i can't figure out why the kernel on the hard drive
would exhibit this problem.  the boot floppies are for freebsd 4.2
release and the kernel, presumably, is the same GENERIC kernel.

thanks,
david

I have a problem that I just do not seem to have the time to hunt down. I
am hoping that someone might be able to send me an e-mail of how to attack
this. 

As you can see from the logs below I have disk space on this system but
also have several processes that hare having issues with the file system
being full. To add to the mystery every thing seems to be working fine,
e-mail is getting though just fine even though the system is clearly
indicating that mail.local (MDA) and ipop3d (the retrieval program) both
are unhappy. 

Swap and memory are also showing lots of spare room for growth. 

Any ideas are welcome. I am not a UNIX guru by any means but do OK given
time to track everything down. Thanks 

Derek Bottles

Hi,
	I have a NIC named adico.
	I can't find the driver on freebsd. But I find the driver source code on Redhat 6.0.
	I had asked the vendor. They told me that I can use MX98715 driver to replace it.
	But I can't find MX98715 driver on freebsd. 
	And I hope it to be supported by freebsd. What can I do?
	Need I mail the driver source code to you ?

	best regards,

Your / partition is dreadfully small, as it is also accomodating /tmp
which is the general dumping ground for various temporary files.

You will need to create another file-system and mount it as /tmp to
get around your problem.

Hi,
Since I started using the IPLOG utility I've been seeing some weird traffic
repreating every couple hours.   I have a FreeBSD 4.0-Release Gateway/Server
with a Win/FreeBSD box inside connected with a crossover. I don't if
everyone if familiar with IPLog, it basically just tells me about an
incoming connection, ping, etc.. Here is what I'm seeing every few hours,
the addresses usually are different, but the box will be quiet for a long
time, then within a few seconds, all of these pings seem to come in
simulataneously. Can anyone read anything into this for me?

The apache build from the ports work fine. They usually always do. If you
need the latest version of the ports, cvsupdate it.

Hi,

I am going to install FreeBSD 2.2.2 and would like to use the Intel Pro/100
S Desktop Adapter. I wonder if the fxp driver that comes with FreeBsd can be
used for the card stated. The reason is that Intel EtherExpress Pro 100/B is
no more available for purchase. Please advice. Appreciate it.

Regards

Let me suggest you buy a copy (or download) of FreeBSD 4.2. You'll be
happier. As to the NIC, FreeBSD 4.2 says:

FXP(4)                 FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual                 FXP(4)

NAME
     fxp - Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B ethernet device driver

SYNOPSIS
     device fxp

DESCRIPTION
     The fxp driver provides support for the EtherExpress Pro/10, Pro/100B,
     and Pro/100+ PCI Fast Ethernet adapters based on the Intel i82557 or
     i82559 ethernet chips.

[...]

I suggest you check on the chip number of the proposed NIC. Am pretty 
sure its going to work (its PCI, right?) Am pretty sure the i82558 is 
on a couple of cards I use with fxp.

I'm running FreeBSD 3.3-19991207-SNAP and I noticed this earlier today:

Dec  8 12:28:53 fred /kernel: nzmirror.p0.s1: fatal write I/O error
Dec  8 12:28:53 fred /kernel: vinum: nzmirror.p0.s1 is stale by force
Dec  8 12:28:53 fred /kernel: vinum: nzmirror.p0 is corrupt
Dec  8 12:29:53 fred /kernel: nzmirror.p0.s1: fatal write I/O error

then

Dec  8 12:31:23 fred /kernel: vinum: drive d2 is down
Dec  8 12:31:24 fred /kernel: vinum: Can't write config to /dev/da2s1e, error 5
Dec  8 12:31:24 fred /kernel: (da2:ncr0:0:4:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE. CDB: 35 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 
Dec  8 12:31:24 fred /kernel: (da2:ncr0:0:4:0): NOT READY asc:4,0
Dec  8 12:31:24 fred /kernel: (da2:ncr0:0:4:0): Logical unit not ready, cause not reportable

Below are some other observations.  Everything on the drives can be recovered 
(its cvsup.nz.freebsd.org), but I'd rather not do that until I can source some
replacement drives.

thanks

If by accident  I  lost my / partition. Do you know where I can find

Thank you.

Hi,

I finally decided to upgrade to 4-Stable today, but I am having some
difficulty.

I am following the instructions from
http://www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd/3-4update.html and
/usr/src/UPDATING (which are basically the same).

I cvsup-ed the sources using this file (comments snipped):
   ---------------------------------
   *default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org
   *default base=/usr
   *default prefix=/usr
   *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
   *default delete use-rel-suffix
   *default compress

   src-all

   ports-all tag=.
   ---------------------------------

I skimmed the UPDATING file, and it seems that most of the information
is post-install procedure.  The only step I took was the one dated
20001006, which states that miniperl is no longer needed and
/usr/bin/miniperl should be deleted.  This seems related to the
problem, given the error message below, but I'm not sure how...

I deleted all of the files in /usr/obj (following mostgraveconcern)
and then tried `make buildworld', which ran for about 10 minutes
before failing with the following message:

cc -O -pipe
-I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl/../../../../contrib/perl5 -I/us
r/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl   -c opmini.c

In function `Perl_pp_aassign':
pp_hot.o(.text+0x16a1): undefined reference to `setresuid'
pp_hot.o(.text+0x16d4): undefined reference to `setresgid

I'm not quite sure what went wrong here.  Any ideas?

-----

On a somewhat related note: the UPDATING file has a "COMMON ITEMS"
section (just below 4.0 RELEASE line) that include some instructions
on how to upgrade from 3.x to 4.x.  These instructions are annotated
with foot-notes numbered 1-5, however I only see the notes for 1-4.
Does anybody know what [5] is :)?

TIA

I'm sorry I didn't post this. I fixed it by installing the compatibility
3.x distribution from /stand/sysinstall

When I did that, the libpng.so.3 was there in the libs directory.

I thought maybe the answer was obvious to everyone but me, so I didn't
think it was worthy of posting.

Installing the 2.x also fixed one of my other problems with some software
I've been using from two previous upgrades...

Thanks,
Chuck

I'm having trouble finding the answer to my questions. If you can point
me in the right direction (instruction page or whatever) I'd be
grateful. 

For people who have been authorized as users for somebody with BSD, how
do they login? Is there a page with instruction for how to do other
things as a person with this status?

Thanks!

boot up in single-user mode.  remount / rw so you can modify it.
(or maybe just shutdown into single user mode).

cd /
mv tmp tmp.link
mv tmp.old tmp
shutdown -r now

...that's my guess.

Hi list,

I've been searching the list archives for an answer to my question,
found similar stuff, but not exactly this one.

So.
I installed FreeBSD on a box these days, having these (brand new)
SCSI disks:

da0: <IBM-PSG DDYS-T36950M  F S94S> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device

I get them when trying to access the drives after some 10 minutes of
inactivity. They never come when the disk is active, or was active in
the last ~10 minutes.
They come in pair for target 0 and 1 since I use vinum :)
Had them before as well, but not in pairs.

These messages aren't like the ones already discussed on the list several
times, they seemingly doesn't have anything to do with bad blocks and
stuff... imho.

Any help is highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

bye,
Roland

I have been looking at a home wireless network using the Apple
Airport. It's a really neat little box and at under $300, it's fairly
affordable. 

My main concern is using it without a Mac. I know it will inter-operate
with my WaveLAN cards, but I am unsure about management
functions. Does anyone know if there is a way to set it up to from a
FreeBSD box? I don't care about the modem. I will be connecting to my
cable modem via Ethernet, so I don't have to worry about that.

But it looks like software updates are in an Apple proprietary format
and I suspect I'll need to have a Mac to upgrade. I also need to set
keys, network name and configure addresses or DHCP, although that
should "just work" if they did it right.

I'd appreciate any suggestions form anyone who is familiar with it.

It was suggested to me when I wrote about the power reset problem on the
list a few months back.

Well, that could be related, although I don't run Samba on my boxes.

Hopefully that will be a fix, from what I remember I've heard people with
uptimes of anywhere between a reset every few days to every 30 or more who
seemed to have solved it with replacing their NICs. I sure wish I could use
my old trusty DEC de204s again, hopefully the support for that will be fixed
up. They are old ISA 10m-bit, but they ran faster than the IBM NE2000s I run
now.
(Also CC to the list so solutions will appear in the archives):)

Well, I don't know what the problem is with those NICs or how to track it
down further, I presented the question to the list, and someone suggested
that they had a similar problem which was solved by replacing the realtek.
It is something that someone may want to take up with the Author of the
driver, but for all I know it could happen under other OSes as well.  Also,
you should CC messages back to the list, not only to get more feedback, but
also so others with similar problems later on will find a possible solution
in the archives.  Let me know if this is a fix:)

I can't help you with the details as the closest I've come to one is using
an airport equipped iMac as a coaster :) But a search of the archives
reveals http://people.freebsd.org/~nsayer/ which contains some info on using
FreeBSD with the Apple Airport.
Best of luck

You must start vinum during bootup. Put the following line in /etc/rc.conf:

What is easier, CVSup or the Script ugrade that comes with a newer version
of FreeBSD.

I have a 4.0Release box that I want to go 4.2 stable.  Should I CVSup to
4.2Stable or do the upgrade that comes with the boot disks and CD-Rom to get
to 4.2Release.

Thanks...

My system is already running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE (from 4.1-RELEASE) and I
want to add compatibility for 3.x binaries. I've tried using
/stand/sysinstall but I couldn't install it from there even if I set the
release name to "none" and installing it from FTP. I don't have the
4.2-RELEASE CD because I haven't downloaded it yet.

I have 2 pcs running FreeBSD. I changed nic on one pc. This pc is
triple-booting FreeBSD,
Slackware 7.0 and Windows 98. I was able to re-configure both the LInux
and Windows
network interfaces........... (old = smc-ultra, new=ne2000). After
reviewing the manual, It seems
to me that the only way to reconfigure for the new nic, is to re-install
the FreeBSD system.`
I sure hope I'm wrong...

You're wrong. =)

If I understand correctly, you swapped out a NIC with another one and want
to maintain the same configuration (IP address, broadcast, gateway, etc).
Compile support for the new card into your kernel for the device to be
recognized.  You can use /stand/sysinstall to configure it or if you want,
just add the new device to the network_interfaces list in /etc/rc.conf,
and add a configuration line for the new interface.  For example, assuming
a new 3c509 card was installed (which is device ep, the first being ep0),
you would have the following lines in /etc/rc.conf:

	network_interfaces="ep0 lo0 [any other interfaces]"
	ifconfig_ep0="inet [your ip] netmask [your netmask]"

You can reboot then, or if the card is already in the kernel and you don't
want to reboot, look at using /sbin/ifconfig to bring the new interface
up and simultaneously configuring it.  Usually something like:

	/sbin/ifconfig ep0 up [your ip address] netmask [your netmask]

Subject: How to improve FreeBSD nfs performance?  and please explain the k
	ernel parameters.

Hi, all,

 These days I encountered a nfs performance problem, Basically we use Intel
machines with 512M memory, Intel Pro100M Ethernet network interfaces and HP
switches,
But we find that the performance is too bad:

 This is the performance test,. write from nfs client to nfs server mounted
through amd ("nfsiod -n 4" and "nfsd -t -u -n 16" are running to improve
performance already):

 nfs server:	nfs client:       		transfer speed (Mega bytes)

 FreeBSD 4.1	FreeBSD 4.1  		2-4 M
 FreeBSD 4.1	RedHat Linux 6.2	5-7 M
 Linux 6.2	Linux 6.2		10+ M

So it's really terrible, because I like FreeBSD and we install a lot of
FreeBSD boxes. So I tried to change  nfs sync-write method, which is default
for FreeBSD,  try to use async method,  (sysctl -w vfs.nfs.async=1 ; sysctl
-w vfs.nfs.gatherdelay=0 ) and  test the performance again, and the
performance is improved a lot

 nfs server:	nfs client:       		transfer speed (Mega bytes)

 FreeBSD 4.1	FreeBSD 4.1  		7-10 M 
 
 This is a good nfs performance, But I'm also concerned about the reliabity
and correctness of data, since write-behind is enabled (async write). Anyone
can show me if this is really terrible?  From my test these 3 days, I found
that it is ok, no data lost at all.

Also, any one can do me a favor to explain the functions of the following
kernel parameters and their possible values?


   1.  vfs.nfs.commit_blks
   2.  vfs.nfs.commit_miss
   3.  vfs.nfs.realign_test
   4.  vfs.nfs.realign_count
   5.  vfs.nfs.bufpackets
   6.  vfs.nfs.gatherdelay
   7.  vfs.nfs.gatherdelay_v3
   8.  vfs.nfs.defect
   9 . vfs.nfs.access_cache_timeout
  10. vfs.nfs.nfsv3_commit_on_close


The following are collected on my test machine:

I just installed FreeBSD 4.2 and I can't get it to use the correct name
server. I created the file /etc/resolve.conf and put my domain and name
server's address in it, but when I do anything that involves a DNS lookup it
queries the local machine. What am I missing? This is a dumb question that I
should know the answer to but it has always worked out of the box for every
other installation I have done.

-Hello
- I have been using MySQL and Postgresql  for a long time now from the
/usr/ports collection 
- and I am using it on my old Pentium 166 with 64MB RAM without any problems
such  as running out of memory etc

- Maybe you should try to intall MySQL from www.freebsd.org/ports

- The advantages are: -

    - It installs MySQL for your automatically
    - It puts things in standard places

Just to remove all doubt, try this record:

@  86400 IN SOA ns1.centralinfo.net. hostmaster.1nova.com. (
                                     200012070   ; serial number
                                     21600   ; refresh
                                     10800   ; retry
                                     604800   ; expire
                                     43200)  ; ttl
 			IN 	NS  	ns1.centralinfo.net.
                       	IN 	NS  	ns2.centralinfo.net.
			IN 	A	63.105.24.23
                 	IN 	MX	0 mail 
	 	;
		heorot	IN	A	63.105.24.23
                www	IN	CNAME	heorot	
                ftp 	IN 	CNAME	heorot	 
                mail 	IN	CNAME	heorot

 
The way you administer your zone files is a matter of taste, really.  This is how I like to keep mine.  I always try to assign a certain hostname to every box and if I need aliases to that box, to make them to the hostname itself.  I also try not to clutter up the record with TTLs unless they are different from the default you specify in the header.  Again, that is just a matter of taste.  Some people like to have the TTLs in every entry to remind them of what value they are specifically.  The way you have yours set up looks fine to me except for two things. 

1) It's probably not a good idea to have an A entry and a CNAME entry for the same name (i.e. www)
2) You forgot to put an IN on just about everything, which will make BIND complain a little bit, or maybe not work correctly.

Also, when you're doing alot of initial domain name setup, it's a good idea to keep the TTL down to a minimum (maybe something like 3600).  This prevents any mistakes from being cached for too long.

One final note.  I'm not sure if you know where BIND logs to, but it's in /var/log/messages (typically).  A good way to see what your name server is up to and what it thinks about the changes you just made is to look at this file after you have made changes and reloaded the name server.  I typically do something like this:

/usr/sbin/named.reload && grep named /var/log/messages

If your name server doesn't like something in a zone file, it usually tells you what and where the problem is.

Hope this helps!

-Ben

	Well, you might want to broaden your search. This is discussed fairly
regularly.

	There is an experimental lockd implementation that works on a freebsd
nfs server to issue locks. You can get a copy at
http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~crossd/FreeBSD/lockd-0.2a.tar.gz

If you're going to run it on 4.2 you can ignore the xdr info, those
updates have already been committed. Just run make and then you will
have a lockd binary to play with. Keep in mind that this is
experimental, but it's passed my tests so far. Also, this does not
implement the ability for freebsd to request locks, it's a server only
item. 

Good luck,

Doug

* Spikeman <spikeman@myself.com> [20001208 07:03]: writing on the subject 'Re: FreeBSD as a dialup ROUTER/GATEWAY'
=>yes you can use SQUID, I never used EXIM but i am sure
=>you can sendmail can do it.

Thanks I did figure out how to deploy squid and it works like a charm.
I know it is possible to use sendmail, which you can fire from ppp.linkup
but I cannot remember the command syntax and that is what I am now looking
for.
I vaguely remember that it was something like
/usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail -bd -q30 & or something like that.
If this is possible then I am sure I can start EXIM with the same args and
achieve the same thing since they are both smtpds.
I only need someone to point me to where this info can be found,
especially the config for running a service via ppp.linkup once Ive fired
ppp from rc.conf

Thanks again.

Subject: IRQ problems when configuring ethernet card
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

I'm running a FreeBSD 5-CURRENT snapshot from Dec. 6, and trying to 
configure an AmbiCom Cardbus ethernet card.  I've included cardbus, pccbb, 
miibus, and dc (the driver for AMB 8100 cards) in my kernel, and enabled 
use of DHCP.  When I boot, I get "watchdog timeout" errors that appear to 
be due to the fact that my graphics controller and ethernet card are 
assigned the same IRQ.  From dmesg:

pci0: <NeoMagic MagicGraph 128XD SVGA controller> (vendor=0x10c8, 
dev=0x0004) at 2.0 irq 11
...
dc0: <Intel 21143 10/100BaseTX> port 0x3000-0x307f mem 
0x18040000-0x1807ffff,0x18022000-0x180223ff irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus0

If I try to boot -c and change the IRQ used by my ethernet card, it doesn't 
work, since 'ls' does not show dc0 as being loaded.  Any ideas on how I 
could resolve this issue?  Kernel config file, dmesg, and dmesg for a boot 
-v are available if that would help.  Thanks.

(Please cc: replies to me; I'm not subscribed to -questions.)

Actually there is a new section in the handbook for how to configure sound
cards.  See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/sound.html
	I did the steps you listed there (except pcm not pcm0) with an ISA
card (Not sure if it is PNP or not) and it worked fine.

	Edit /etc/mail/sendmail.cf (or /etc/sendmail.cf on an older system) and
look for the line that starts with 'DS'. Put the hostname of your remote
MTA right after the S (no spaces). Then the sendmail on your local
machine will always forward to that host.

You ran out of disk space, try adding another disk.

	You're making a common mistake, confusing a serial console with a
serial tty. As you've discovered, you can have one without the other.
Someone else already explained how to enable the tty, but I thought I'd
take this opportunity to let you know you're in good company. :)

	Hi, I am trying to access an image that I made of a small hard
drive.  I made it pretty simply with dd if=/dev/ad1 of=file
I can get vnconfig working fine with an iso, but I try somethig similiar
with my image and I get this output and error:
tim# ls
maxtorbackup
tim# vnconfig vn0c ./maxtorbackup
tim# mount_msdos /dev/vn0c /mnt
mount_msdos: /dev/vn0c: Invalid argument

	The disk was msdos ver 6 and mounting it worked correctly so I
figured this would too.  I read the manpage and can't see where I am going
wrong.  Did I need certain options to dd when I made the image to get this
to work?  Help would be greatly appreciated.

					Tim

hi,

is there any document for coding style for freebsd programms. like kernel,
modules, and other (non contrib non ports).

what i am looking for is, good style c programming style for my self.

by style i meen:
1. function naming
1a. string_length()
1b. str_length()
1c. stringlength()
1d. strlength()
and etc. ;))

2. function description
2a. int main(int argc, char *argv[ ])
2b. int main(argc, argv)
    int argc;
    char *argv[];
2c. int
    main(int argc, char *argv[ ])

and etc.

offcource this is not all, but i hope you cached the idea.

btw. i now, what most some of it, depends only on myself. but i do not want
to invent wheel. just use the invented one. and be happy for all my live
what is left for me ;))

thanks,
joskis

The compatability is mostly libraries. If you have the sources
installed, go to /usr/src/lib/compat/compat3x.i386 and do "make
install" as root.

I think that that being an iso image you cannot mount it as an msdos file
systems. I am not sure though but from what I did with dd, I wrote a
floppy image to filename.bin and it worked fine.
Someone else might have a better idea
I've always gone this way with an ISO image....and I thought filename.bin
is more of an iso image

At a wild guess, you're running into problems with the slice
table. Without knowing how you mounted it as a disk and how you
created the image, it's hard to say. You might try using the
appropriate sliced vn device (vn0s1, say).

I get this error "profiling timer expired"   causing 

init: /bin/sh terminates abnormally in /etc/rc  exiting to single user mode


this cropped up a while (August - September) ago with 4.1R-4.1stable and 
mysteriously vanished. it seemed to be possibly related to qlogic cards using 
the isp driver.

Any $.02 welcome (Euro accepted as well)

tried upgrading bios of qlogic to no effect

	What FreeBSD is is perfectly well explained in the
web site you have visited. But of course, if you don't
know the basics then it will be hard for you to grasp the
concepts presented there. There are docs for beginners there
though, please try to find and read them. If I were to give
a short answer to your second question I would say that you
should use FreeBSD if you really want to learn what computers
and computer science is. Not that it's the only choice, it's
not; I just mean to discard Windows and Microsoft stuff in
general (boy don't I sound biased ).

	Good luck

what your asking is basically how to hack a box. I highly doubt it will be
that easy. The less work of the two would be installing a floppy
drive. Otherwise start scanning the box for remotely / locally exploitable
programs.

(good luck, you'll need it)

Microsoft: "Where would you like to go to today"
Linux: "Where would you like to go tomorrow"
FreeBSD: "Hey,when are you guys going to catch up"

I think that's the only entry you need for both cards, but I'm not 100%
sure.  It's best to always Cc the list, especially when it's a different
question.

Well pci cards are usually 'plug and play' which means that either the =
BIOS
or the OS deals with the assignment of irq and IO range.

You may just need to change the BIOS setting for 'plug and play' to 'OS'
or whatever your particular BIOS says for _NOT_ letting the BIOS assign
parameters for plug and play.

In particiluar, I'm looking for any benchmarks/comparisons between FreeBSD
with softupdates enabled vs Solaris 8's file system ... I don't want any
addons, I consider softupdates as part of the operating system ...

Hi,

I have got a 4.2-STABLE box, cvsup'ed the last time 3 hours ago the
whole world and the ports collection. After building the world and the
kernel, "make KERNEL=MYKERNEL installkernel" (in multiuser mode, but I
am the one and only user at this time) fails with an "operation not
permitted" error executing "chflags noschg /kernel" as root.
Rebooting in single user mode, make installkernel, reboot to single user,
make installworld, mergemaster works fine.
After this I rebooted again (into multiuser), built the latest XFree86-4,
but can't get it to work.
xf86cfg fails because a fatal X server error occurs:

(WW) checkDevMem: failed to open "/dev/mem" (Operation not permitted)
[...]
Fatal server error:
xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O

(I started xf86cfg as root)
The manpages for io(4) and mem(4) didn't give me a hint what happened,
the search on deja.com and freebsd-(stable|questions) was unsuccessful.
Running xf86cfg or startx within truss also didn't show some helpful
output.

Another problem in the same category (I think):
I tried to copy a file with "mcopy foo a:" (as root) and got
Can't open /dev/rfd0: Operation not permitted.

All 3 device files (/dev/io, /dev/mem, /dev/rfd0) are read-writable for
root.

Any hints appreciated.

Regards,
	Eckart

--=====================_8045885==_.ALT
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

I recently upgraded from 3.3-STABLE to 4.0-RELEASE

Now my PPP link comes up but seems to fail after about 20 minutes.  I have 
an ISDN modem and the B1 channel stays lit, but I can't ping anything.

Also, my hard drive starts making noise like it is writing to a log file or 
something (this goes on constantly), but no log file that I have found, is 
filling up.

I started my ppp link and afterwards started a ping to a site.  About 20 
minutes later, instead of the successful ping results, I got back

"pinging - no buffer space"

The ppp.log file shows that the logfile turned over but nothing else....

I recently upgraded from 3.3-STABLE to 4.0-RELEASE<br>
<br>
Now my PPP link comes up but seems to fail after about 20 minutes.&nbsp;
I have an ISDN modem and the B1 channel stays lit, but I can't ping
anything.<br>
<br>
Also, my hard drive starts making noise like it is writing to a log file
or something (this goes on constantly), but no log file that I have
found, is filling up.<br>
<br>
I started my ppp link and afterwards started a ping to a site.&nbsp;
About 20 minutes later, instead of the successful ping results, I got
back <br>
<br>
&quot;pinging - no buffer space&quot;<br>
<br>
The ppp.log file shows that the logfile turned over but nothing
else....<br>

I have been trying to move /tmp off the / filesystem. This has been
causing some weird X11 problems...

For example if I 

# mv /tmp /tmp.old
# mkdir tmp
# chmod 777 tmp
# reboot now

I then have problems running startx! (The screen and keyboard shut
down, forcing me to reboot the system from another system.)

If I move the old tmp directory back, the problem goes away.

I assumed /tmp was temporary, and that you should be able to boot with
an empty /tmp no problem.

Any ideas?

It's a matter of taste. I personally like the idea to compile the world
and the kernel after CVSuping the Stable sources. OTOH, sometimes there
are pitfalls on the road: Make sure to read and *understand*
/usr/src/UPDATING (obviously) *before* you attempt to do it. Having a
machine not booting after an update is a common experience after not
reading this file.

Doing a binary update (/stand/sysinstall -> update) isn't less risky,
though: this one just drops the binaries where they belong. If you
forget to update /dev entires or do not adjust the configuration files,
you're in for a nasty surprise, too.

The reason why I prefer the CVSup method is easy: a full
buildworld/installworld/buildkernel/installkernel cycle lasts several
hours on my lowly P-133. More than enough time to read all the new
material accompanying the new version. When the build completes, I have
finished reading ;)

HTH

Hi,

Try chmod 1777 /tmp. You need the sticky(8) bit on the directory for it to
work properly.

/tmp should be chmod'ed with 1777 for the sticky bit turned on. I am *think* 
the perms affect X. Try it out and see if this corrects the problem.


Hope this helps!!

Strange, but it doesn't!  The only thing that restores X11 functionality
is copying the old tmp directory back.

This doesn't make any sense to me -- if /tmp were swap, wouldn't it get
cleared at each reboot? Isn't that a common configuration?

Greetings and Salutations:

I am attempting to upgrade Apache 1.3.9  to Apache
1.3.14.

The machine is running FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE and the gcc
version is at 2.7.2.3 

Upon the attempted upgrade, Apache segfaulted and left
a /usr/local/apache/conf/libhttpd.ep.core file. 

Running gdb says: 

(gdb) core libhttpd.ep.core 
Core was generated by `libhttpd.ep'. 
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

#0 0x281c6bed in ?? () 

(I have more gdb data if it would help...)

I am at a loss as to what to do next, and would
appreciate any assistance that I receive.

Please cc me directly, as I am not subscribed to
questions@freebsd from where I am currently.

Thanks in advance!

Charles

Do you have another OS on a different physical partition on
this drive? I am wondering why the slices are numbered 2a,2e,2f.

You also have not allocated as much space as you said was on the
drive. The size of each slice is the 2nd column. / is 496 KB,
/usr is 992 KB, /var is 992 KB. This is not a good layout, IMHO.

With large capacity drives, I don't see the point in limiting the
size of /usr and /var, unless you are supporting thousands of
users. Just make one big slice on / that takes up the entire
drive. Or two slices, one on / and one that you mount later on
/pub, where you can put web sites and other non-OS stuff.

/usr is 99% full. I can tell you right now that this is simply
because you need to allocate more than 992 KB to /usr, or get
rid of the ports collection. You could move it to /var and
then make a symlink in /usr/ports if you don't want to lose it
or re-slice your drive.

/ is full. If you have /usr on a separate slice, like you do,
there is no reason / should be using all 496 KB you allocated.

What is the output of (run as root)
du -s /bin /boot /dev /dist /etc /mnt /modules /modules.old /root /sbin /stand /tmp

The numbers should be not too different from this:
3848    /bin
591     /boot
56      /dev
1       /dist
828     /etc
1       /mnt
3674    /modules
3674    /modules.old
8       /root
10564   /sbin
1830    /stand
10      /tmp

If any of the numbers are very different, that will be a clue
as to why / is full.

Good luck, and be sure to cc: your replies to the FreeBSD list.
I am not your personal assistant.

   - Mike

Hello everyone,
I have RTFM question :)
But anyway,
I have 2.1Gb Hard Drive.
Can someone advise me how much would be the perfect sizes
for filesystems:
/
/usr
/tmp
/var
/mnt

If I want to use the whole disk, is that all file system I need(or I do not
need)?
Thanks.

Possible?  Our Novell dept is moving towards IP vs IPX, and will be
removing IPX altogether in the next little while ... how do I then mount
the drives, if it no longer uses IPX?

Send your messages to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org.
I am not your personal assistant; I am just a FreeBSD user like you.

Note that root cannot login via ftp, as a security measure.
See /etc/ftpusers for a list of users that cannot log in.

Make sure the user that is trying to login has a shell that is
listed in /etc/shells.

Anonymous ftp is not available by default, either. Read the ftpd
man page to find out how to set up anonymous ftp.


Make sure /etc/inetd.conf has

ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/ftpd       ftpd -d -l -l

and make sure /etc/syslog.conf has

ftp.*                                           /var/log/xferlog

and then, as root, do:

touch /var/log/xferlog
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/inetd.pid`
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`

Then you will be able to see all your FTP connection attempts in
the file /var/log/xferlog.

Good luck.

   - Mike

While testing a win95 client program (for a friend) which sends udp
packets to IPv4 addresses, I find that my FreeBSD-4.1 gateway always
tries to lookup the symbolic names by DNS, or tcpdump shows that it
does.  How can I disable this, preferably on the single port it uses?

Thanks again,
John.

If the other answers didn't cure it, and stating the obvious:

I did it and really the kernel system does not hang anymore but ...

I wasn't able to find any kernel configuration that would allow me to
actually use the device.

I've tried everything sensible (IMHO), ie:

device pcm

device pcm0  at isa? port 0x530 irq 5 drq 0 flags 0x11 
(the card should be detected as MSS compatible, right)

device pcm0 at isa?  port 0x530 irq 10 drq 0 flags 0x11
(the probe says that the card uses irq 10 - as a matter of fact all PCI
devices on my machine except for IDE controllers and built-in WinModem 
use this irq)

device pcm0 at isa? port 0x3c0 irq 10 drq 0 flags 0x0
(this exactly matches resources that Windows claim this device is using)

device pcm0 at isa> port ? irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0
(per some older advice found in freebsd-questions archive = another attempt
on MSS compatibility mode)

None of the above works. The system never detects any pcm device.  Using
boot -v I wasn't able to find anything that would give me a clue what is
wrong. In all isa? cases I see somthing like:

mss_probe: no address given, try 0x530
mss_detect, busy still set (0xff)
pcm0 failed to probe at port 0x530-0x537 irq 10 drq 1 on isa0

I have another datapoint; OSS 3.9.3s for FreeBNSD 4.x works for this card
and cat /dev/sndstat says:

OSS/FreeBSD 3.9.3s (C) 4Front Technologies 1996-2000

Hi John,

'FreeBSD' isn't making the DNS requests. Some application or other is,
such as applications that make us of tcp_wrappers. You will need to
determine which application is causing the DNS queries and configure it
not to. To give an example, tcpdump takes a "-n" option to stop it
making reverse lookups for IP addresses it grabs from packets.

Regards,

james

While testing a win95 client program (for a friend) which sends udp
packets to IPv4 addresses, I find that my FreeBSD-4.1 gateway always
tries to lookup the symbolic names by DNS, or tcpdump shows that it
does.  How can I disable this, preferably on the single port it uses?

I'm somewhat new to FreeBSD and could use some guidance. I'm working on
a winmodem port to FreeBSD from Linux. I have questions such as:

1) Are there exported kernel interfaces so that I can make the code a
KLD; that is,  when the module is loaded (kldload), the PCI probe code
is not automatically execute (as the ISA probe is). So is there a
find_pci_xxx like interfaces in FreeBSD. Is there a list of such
routines somewhere. (Linux has a means of finding these). When the
module is built into the kernel, the PCI probe does occur.

2) Are there kernel interfaces that a KLD can use to activate sounds.
Again, is there a list of interfaces available.
3) Can a KLD open and read files, if so, what are the interfaces
4) How does one request pinned (aka wired), non-pageable,  memory?
5) I thought newbus eliminated, somehow, the need of splx and it's
couterparts. What is the preferred method for handling interrupts?
6) Is there a real good example of code to look at. Drivers I have
looked at seem to be hybrids of old versus strictly newbus. A fully
newbus-ified driver would be great.

Any references to important doc would be greatly appreciated.

Under sysinstall you can set default values for each, then work your way
up from there.  Mainly I just use it for / and swap, then make my own
depending on the disk and function.  When setting up the disk, you can
enter 'a' for the defaults.  Delete everything but / and swap.  For your
setup, I'd assume this won't be a production machine, just a desktop.
So:

/ - default, should be around 50mb
swap - default
/tmp - 64mb
/var - 256mb
/mnt - can leave this out
/usr - the rest.  make this partition last

Good luck,

Nicolai

Sounds like you are trying to do forbidden tasks because of your

I believe telia.com is in a complete mess, I have seen
this on other mailing lists the last week.
Until that is sorted out the only cure is for the
administrator of this mail list to remove the addressees
causing it.

There is an option "device agp" that is used by people with 810
motherboards.

Your attachment wasn't readable directly and I didn't save it to read
it.

I'm a little confused as to why we specify a source IP, destination IP and
direction in the spdadd command for setkey. It would seem that specifying a
source and destination imply a direction of the packet. Can someone clarify
this for me? Or, is it source and destination of a connection, and packet
flow direction under that connection?

Thanks,
Jim

i've been trying to set up some nameservers and i seem to have run into
problems.  everything seems to be working correctly on my end of things
(though i could be wrong), however when i try to use my boxes as
nameservers for my domain i get the error message from register.com
stating that

"the nameserver you have requested has not been registered.  you are
not authorized to the nameserver ...."

do i have to spacifically register a nameserver as that or am i missing
something else here?  is it possible the problem lies in my configuration
of named?

any help would be appriciated.

peace,
brian

You must add the names of the nameservers to the whois record for the
domain.  Usually register.com puts its own DNS servers in there, just
remove them and put in your own.

You might try giving them a csh shell, and a ~/.login file containing the
word "logout", and owned root:wheel.  Also, chown their .cshrc and .tcshrc
files to root:wheel, so they cannot overwrite those with their own via
scp.

Don't know if this is the best solution, but it will work.

I've been trying to move /tmp from the root filesystem to a different
(larger) filesystem.

But /tmp is filled with WEIRD FILES put there by XFree86. I think these
are Unix domain sockets; they have permissions like: srwxrwxrwx
(I call them 'weird files' because I've never seen them before, not
because they are weird, per se.)

XFree86 fails to load (it destroys the keyboard/display) if I mv /tmp to
/tmp.old. It loads properly when I move /tmp back. I *cannot* mv /tmp to
a different filesystem because I get an "Operation not permitted" on all
of the sockets. 

Why are these files persistent? Can they be moved? Shouldn't XFree86
successfully recreate them when I startx? 

As you can see, maybe I haven't even honed in on the proper questions...

It seems that your NM2200 has a AC97 mixer, so it would be useful to post
to multimedia as Cameron Grant (newpcm maintainer) reads it.

Maybe, the mixer isn't probed the right way.

Sorry

Hello!

There were rumors about such driver in CURRENT.
Is it true?

Please keep CC, cause I'm not subscribed to these lists.

Thanks in advance for an answer.

Sergiy.

No it won't, monkeyboy. Even though the user doesn't have write access
to the files, he still owns the directory in which they reside. All
he has to do is FTP in and delete or rename them. Chown'ing the user's
home directory, would prevent this, but it might screw up other things.

I would set the user's shell to /bin/false instead. I'm not sure
how sshd will react to this though.

I didn't see a reply to this, so I thought I'd take a stab at this.  I'm
running 4.1.1-release on my laptop, but I couldn't get X running on it
correctly.  So, I cheated, and installed Redhat Linux 6.2 for a brief spell,
and the automaticly configured X file was copied over to BSD.  It works fine,
now.  Kinda crazy, but it should all function the same.  Here is the screen
definition from my XF86Config file.

Section "Screen"
    Driver      "svga"
    Device      "NeoMagic (laptop/notebook)"
    Monitor     "LCD Panel 1024x768"
    DefaultColorDepth 16

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Modes       "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       8
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection

EndSection

Notice the "DefaultColorDepth 16" line.  I'd never seen that before, but the
configuration is acceptable to the X server, so I'm not complaining at all.
I think that is the solution you were looking for.

Hi!

I have a FreeBSD-box which is a router/Firewall with a few clients behind.
The firewall is connected to the internet via ADSL-Link (german T-DSL). I
can do a pop-fetch from the router (independed of the mail-size) but from
the client behind, I only get "short" messages. If the message has a
certain size, after the RETR x command nothing will happen. The POP3-Server
on the other side is: +OK psi02 Solstice (tm) Internet Mail Server (tm)
POP3 2.0 at Fri, 8 Dec 2000 21:44:48 +0100 (MET).

Any ideas? Hints? What to try next? Ah, there is no probe for open socks or
ident.

Bye, Nils

P.S.: If any other mailing list is better for my question, please let me
know.

Subject: ipsec policy confusion


I'm a little confused as to why we specify a source IP, destination IP and
direction in the spdadd command for setkey. It would seem that specifying a
source and destination imply a direction of the packet. Can someone clarify
this for me? Or, is it source and destination of a connection, and packet
flow direction under that connection?

Thanks,
Jim

It returns a "permission denied".  If it can't find the shell, it will fail.
This will give no shell access.  This is, perhaps, the best method of removing
someones shell access.

Thank you, but it still doesn't work.

Ok I mount it like this:  (I included the wrong ways in case that tells
somebody something)
tim# mount -t msdos /dev/ad1 /mnt
msdos: /dev/ad1: Invalid argument
tim# mount -t msdos /dev/ad1c /mnt
msdos: /dev/ad1c: Invalid argument
tim# mount -t msdos /dev/ad1s1 /mnt
tim# ls /mnt
CONFIG.SYS      IO.SYS          NANSI.SYS       QBASIC      AUTOEXEC.BAT
etc.

	I created the image exactly as above in my message,
tim# dd if=/dev/ad1 of=maxtorbackup2

	But I still get: 
tim# vnconfig /dev/vn0s1 ./maxtorbackup2
tim# mount_msdos /dev/vn0s1 /mnt
mount_msdos: /dev/vn0s1: Invalid argument

tim# vnconfig vn1s1 ./maxtorbackup2
vnconfig: /dev/vn1s1: No such file or directory

	The problem may be:  (which I had forgotten about.)
tim# disklabel ad1
disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument

	Do I need to put a valid disklabel on the drive first?  Or redo
the MBR?  And if I do either of these will the drive still boot into DOS?
It is used usually as the primary drive on an old 486 for my mom.
	I thought that if I could mount the drive then I could do the same
with the image using vnconfig.  But I guess I didn't understand much of
the manpage.  Any idea what is wrong?  If you need any other info, let me
know.

						Tim

I know there have been changes to build world starting at 4.X.  Is the
process detailed in the handbook now still a valid one?  Where can i find
the "new procedure" for doing this?

thanks in advance...

In one machine here I've noticed that certain commands (eg "visudo" &
"setenv") return a "not found" response

I've checked .cshrc to see the path /usr/local/sbin is listed

Where should I look next for a solution ??

If you create your image using the slice instead of the disk device, does
that make it any easier? (note, I haven't tried this myself as I generally
don't have sliced or MSDOS disks on my machines)  Ie:

 dd if=/dev/ad1s1 of=maxtorbackup2

Hello all.

I'm sorry to bug but I don't know what else to do.
I'm installing FreeBSD 3.2 (yes I know there are other versions but that's 
the one I have been working without problems) on a new machine a Pentium 
III 500 Mhz, 256 RAM, HD 10 GB. That machine was working with NT 4.0 for a 
year without problems and finally I'm leaving the MS world step by step. I 
decided to configure that machine with FreeBsd 3.2 so I FDISK the disk , 
erasing all partition, Fdisk /MBR and started the installation process.
No problems on creating slice and decide to leave the AUTO option for the 
size of the volumes:

   40 Mb /
  501 Mb /Swap
   20 Mb /var
9207 Mb /usr

after chossing the distribution I want the system starts and after a few 
second I receive the following message:

"Error Mounting /mnt/dev/wd01s1f on /mnt/usr: Invalid argument"

and the installation stops.

Any ideas of what's causing this?. I tried before the B(ad sector option 
after creating the size of the volumes and got another error telling 
something similar on that it couldn't mount the volume....

Thanks in advance for your help. My email in case you want to answer me

There is a little blurb about how to build world depending on which
version you are building from in the /usr/src/UPDATING file.

Did you upgrade to 4.2-STABLE?  If so, you might want to edit the
/usr/src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc file to your liking, then run make in
that directory, then copy the resulting freebsd.cf to
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf

Also, you will need /usr/src/contrib to do this.

I had the same thing and rehash worked for me.  See man csh.  It rebuilds
the shells hash tables of wher to find commands.

You didn't try what I meant, which was:

# vnconfig /dev/vn0 ./maxtorbackup2
# mount -t msdos /dev/vn0s1 /mnt

You do indeed (in your words) "do the same with the image using
vnconfig". It's an image of ad1, and you mounted the first slice with
ad1s1. Therefore you need to mount the first slice of vn0, which
should be vn0s1. If it were an image of ad0s1 (i.e., you had used
/dev/ad0s1 as the if for the dd), what then you would mount /dev/vn0.

Sorry I can't test it for you; I'd like to know if it works.

I run tmp on swap (via mfs), and it works fine. However, it gets
recreated *on reboots*. I didn't see you talk about a reboot - have
you tried that?

X creates lock files and unix domain sockets in /tmp. If you don't
want to reboot with the new /tmp in place, you might try moving
/tmp.old/.X* to /tmp.

You forgot swap, but that's not a file system.

To get "perfect", we need to know what you're going to do with the
system, and what the system configuration is.

For a workstation, I'd go with 2 * memory for swap (assuming you've
got enough memory for Win98 to run reasonably), make / ~1GB, then give
the rest to /home. / can vary between 500MB and the entire disk (with
/home on another disk) for common uses of the system.

Thanks for your help.
The System is going to be DSL Router/Gateway. It's 486 machine. But also I
need to place sources in order to compile kernel.

	Yes, you're right, I did not understnd what you meant, but of
course what you're suggesting makes more sense now that I see it.  But:
tim# vnconfig /dev/vn0 ./maxtorbackup2
tim# mount -t msdos /dev/vn0s1 /mnt
msdos: /dev/vn0s1: Invalid argument

	Even though this and Ken's suggestion should accomplish the same
thing, Ken's works:
tim# dd if=/dev/ad1s1 of=maxtorbackup3

	Would you like remote root access to my system with ssh to try it
yourself?  Haha just kidding. :)
	Seriously, thanks to both of you, Mike and Ken.  Now I can wipe
that drive and not worry about being able to access the info that was on
it.

First of all, you flame me and you're wrong.  Second of all, I don't know
why someone would open FTP when they want people to use scp.  Having a bad
day?  Don't take it out on loyal FreeBSD users.

Also, if they chown'd the home directory, that would break qmail.

No go.

What is the best solution?  As I said, my suggestion may not be the best
solution, but at least it works.  And, you haven't proven that you can
break it without enabling ftp for the user.

Ok, you've just shot down the need for /home. If the gateway
functionality isn't going to include anything that requires queuing to
local disk (like an SMTP server) or generates lots of log activity,
one big file system is perfectly reasonable. If you have one of the
latter two cases, you might want to give /var a large chunk of space
(how big depends on how much) to make / mostly static. This allows you
to have different backup policies for / and /var.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hello there!

I'm currently having trouble installing DSL under FreeBSD
4.2-RELEASE.
Actually, it's German Telekom T-DSL, using PPPoE. I've posted it to
the German lists already, as some of you will probably have noticed.

The DSL cabling is OK. This is the ppp.conf file section:
- - - -----8< snip >8-----
tdsl:
 allow users user1 user2 user3
 set device PPPoE:ep1     # ep1 is the NIC I use for PPPoE.
 set MTU 1492
 set MRU 1492
 set dial
 set crtscts off
 set speed sync
 accept lqr
 disable deflate
 disable pred1
 disable vjcomp
 disable acfcomp
 disable protocomp
 set log Phase LCP IPCP CCP Warning Error Alert Lots Of Crap
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
 add default HISADDR
 set login
 set authname array_of_numbers@t-online.de
 set authkey dontlookatme
 set server /some/socket 0700
 nat enable yes
 nat same_ports yes
- - - -----8< snip >8-----

Netgraph is compiled into the kernel.

When I call "ppp tdsl" and give it a "dial" command, I get chucked
out
after five seconds because there's no carrier. Doing "set cd off"
doesn't help because the man page says I need a carrier for PPPoE.
It's rather nicely deterministic, however: after "set cd N" I get
chucked out after N seconds. How cute.

So I guess something's wrong on the PPPoE layer. The tutorial I was
using contains some nice protocol dumps from the PPPoE layer; the guy
who made them says he did it using tcpdump(1); however, I can't think
of an interface to dump with tcpdump, as tun0 is out of the question
and ep1 doesn't work because it's not configured for TCP/IP, which
ought not to be necessary because I won't be talking IP to my ep1. So
basically, I don't know what to dump, unless I start to wriggle
around
with Netgraph. The solution I'd think of would be to hang an ng_bpf
node between the ng_pppoe node created by PPP and the ng_ether node
that represents my ep1. This doesn't work, however, because I can't
hang nodes between other nodes; I can just disconnect nodes from
other
nodes and reconnect them to third nodes. As soon as I disconnect the
ng_pppoe node, it gets shut down automatically which is a nice thing
but which doesn't help me at all. When I create a new pppoe node, PPP
won't use it, and when I start PPP without creating a new pppoe node,
PPP complains quite correctly about ep1:'s orphan hook being used by
the ng_bpf node, which he's quite right about. Now I'm quite new to
Netgraph, but I haven't got a clue what I could do to get a dump from
the PPPoE layer.

Is there anything else that could be wrong? How do I tcpdump the
PPPoE
layer? Am I just an idiot or is this difficult?

The machine I'm using is not spectacular. It's an ancient 486
DX4/133,
with an NE2000 and a 3COM 3c509 as NICs. The 3COM, like so many
3COMs,
gets mirrored as ep0 and ep1, ep0 is a shadow adapter that does
nothing except linger on the bus and confuse the PnP code, while ep1
is the actual adapter. This is in the problem list as kernel/18200,
but I don't think that's the fault. The ep1 gets auto-configured by
PnP to IRQ 9, but since there is no graphics adapter in the machine,
that probably doesn't hurt.

Anyhow, what can I do about the DSL problem? Any suggestions? Thanks
in advance.

Greetings

I am searching for the firmware for the Tigon 2 chipset.  I am trying to
install a Netgear GA620t on a FreeBSD 3.2 machine.  Does anyone know
where I can find the firmware version 12.4.11 sources?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh yes. And even after a reboot, /tmp is filled with all kinds of crap,
namely those unix domain sockets and lockfiles created by X.

The sockets have been causing trouble. When I tried to mv /tmp /usr/tmp,
I get an "Operation not permitted" on every socket. I have not tried to
move the sockets separately.

I can mv /tmp all over the root filesystem, of course; just not to any
other filesystems. (I assume mv renames if the target filesystem
is the same as the source, and copies the files otherwise.)

Those sockets remain even after a reboot; even if I don'r run X.
Is this normal? I would think if you shutdown X, it would remove
all its lockfiles and sockets. It seems as if X requires those
sockets to run, because if I move /tmp, my display and keyboard
both fail until a reboot.

I searched deja.com regarding this issue, and found a message from
someone who said "I like to move /tmp to a diferent filesystem before X
has a chance to establish sockets there."

Hi there!

JMZ> Check that you have all the ng_* stuff loaded. You need

Doesn't make any difference. They get dynamically loaded, which I can
see when I do a "ngctl list" when ppp is active. I've tried that. I'd
be satisfied with getting PPPoE protocol dumps for the present, after
which I hope to be able to work it out myself :-)

Thank you anyway for your amazingly quick response :-)

You can't really "mv" files from one file system to another; in that
case mv calls cp(1) for you (it's in the man page). That doesn't work
very well on sockets.

I'd think that about X as well, but I'm not an X guru. If you're not
cleaning out /tmp at reboot, then you should: "shutdown -r"; when it
comes up, don't go multi-user, go single-user. Then mv /tmp to
/tmp.old (I'd suggest *deleting* the old /tmp) and create the new /tmp
appropriately. That got lost in here, but it's a symlink to another
fs, right?

> I searched deja.com regarding this issue, and found a message from

Which is pretty much what I outlined above. Moving /tmp to /tmp.old
*should* make X recreate them when you start it, providing that you've
rebooted the system in between.

If you've done that, then I'd seriously suggest removing the things.

Ok, I can't resist - I get asked what I working with Dana Carvey is
like regularly. Do you get asked what it's like being dead?

You really ought to generate your sendmail.cf file from your master
config again :-)

This is not a problem that makes Sendmail fail to work, though.  It's
merely a warning, as it says.  And there is nothing wrong with your
aliases file.

Have you set the MTU size to 1492 on the clients?

Do you have 'ifconfig_ep1="up mtu 1492"' in rc.conf?

Did you test that the NIC is really working (DOS Bootdisk with 3Com utility)? 

Has the ADSL modem really established a connection to the DSL service at the Telekom?

Does anyone know when the new book, "FreeBSD for Dummies" will be
released to the public?  I've been checking Books a Million (bamm.com)
for more than a month now.  I thought it was to be released in November.

hi there:
i just acquired FreeBSD 4.2 iso image and burned a cd.
then i installed freebsd on my PII 233MHz, 512MB RAM,
4x40GB WD Harddrives RAID 0+1 with Promise
FASTTRAK100. everything worked out smoothly, however,
when i start up the computer and log in as root and at
the prompt i type startx, then i get this error. it
can't startx. is there a bug in the 4.2 version?
it says that i should mail the whole error and not the
last lines, but i don't know how to email that output?
how can i get a newer version that isn't going to
crash when i want to use KDE?
peace out,
ponch

Hi,

I've just recently installed FreeBSD 4.2. I've set up and configured =
ipfw and natd to give me some basic NAT functionality with a little =
firewalling on top of it. The real issue is, that I would like to =
construct some more advanced NAT filtering. I.e. I would like to address =
a lot of port requests to be forwarded to various IP's inside of the =
FreeBSD box. I know there's the -redirect_port command for natd, but it =
doesn't seem too flexible since I presume after hitting 256 chars, I'll =
be unable to supply natd with any more rules...

So, I read that there's also ipf and ipnat, which might be the more =
advanced and configurable path to go. Hence this is what I would like to =
set up/install. It looks to me, as if all the binaries are there (ipf, =
ipstat, ipnat, etc.), but what I get when running the various programs =
is this:

On "ipnat" : /dev/ipnat: open: Device not configured
On "ipf -E" : open device: Device not configured, and on next line: =
SIOCFRENB: Bad file descriptor

The bottom of this message contains some cut'n'paste from the kernel =
bootup dmsg as well as the options I added to the MYKERNEL file =
(following the newbie kernel compile guide, MYKERNEL is the =
configuration file for it I recon :).

Does anyone have some insight as to what I should do to make ipf and =
ipnat work ? I recon I also need to create some devices in /dev. I'd =
appreciate info on how to do that as well (as I basicly suck with /dev =
entries ;).

I hope you can help me, or if I posted in the wrong mailinglist redirect =
me to the propper one.

Regards,
Rasmus (rasmus@ronlev.com)

[ START: Additional information - might be usefull, might not, I dunno ]


From my kernel boot, I have the following info (which I think might be =
important):

DUMMYNET initialized (000608)
IP packet filtering initialized, divert enabled, rule-based forwarding =
disabled, default to accept, logging limited to 100 packets/entry by =
default

I've also set up the following 'extra' info in the file MYKERNEL =
(default, since I'm a FBSD newbie, for compiling a custom kernel):

# Additional Parameters, Required for this particular kernel ;)
options IPFIREWALL # Enable firewall code
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE # Send filtered packets to logger
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=3D100
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPDIVERT # Enable divert sockets
options DUMMYNET # Possible traffic shaping on IPs
options IPFILTER # Enable IP Filter

Are you running -Stable?  Perhaps this question belongs on
FreeBSD-questions, not stable.

Anyway...What kind of modem is it?  I hope it is a real modem and not a
winmodem.  Does it show up in your bootup/dmesg? (My PCI modem shows up as
sio4, as an example.)

	I'd never heard of it, but it looks like it's already out.  I did
a google search for FreeBSD for Dummies and it came up several places.
Must be your store of choice just doesn't carry it yet.  Amazon lists
it but does not carry it.  Try searching amazon for FreeBSD.  At the least
it will help show demand for FreeBSD and second there is another book
about FreeBSD and corporate networking that is coming out soon.  I noticed
there was some idiocy in the online sample chapter of it about FreeBSD
considering networking with Windows as one of it's primary goals, but oh
well.
	Has anybody read FreeBSD for dummies and can comment if it is
worth anything?

Right, it looks as if a drive has died.  The system seems to have
handled the situation correctly, but since you only have one plex,
you've effectively lost the volume, though you can access bits of it.
Did you have a question?  I don't see one.

If you're wondering why d2 is shown as "up", it's because you got a
write error, not a "device not present" error.  That's also what you
get when only part of the drive is inaccessible, so it's not
appropriate to mark the drive down.

I think a 'camcontrol rescan' would remove da2.

No, you haven't really given us much to go by.  You didn't go and put
them on partition c, did you?

I think you can assume she's done this.

Hello all.

Just wanted to share my experience and solution for my problem.

After trying several combinations on activating or deactivating LBA, 
changing to off the 32 bits option on  the SETUP of the machine,doing 
changes on the values of the volumes, changing the CD (52x) for another, 
separating the CD and IDE disk so both were master devices nothing worked 
at all.

The disk was a SEAGATE Model ST310212A of 10.2 GB
The errors I received always were:

	"Error Mounting /mnt/dev/wd01s1f on /mnt/usr: Operation Not Permitted"
or

	"Error Mounting /mnt/dev/wd01s1f on /mnt/usr: Invalid argument"

Fortunately I had another disks. With one of 8.3 GB SAMSUNG everything 
installed fine (emergency disk for any machine). Other disk I had was a 
FUJITSU model MPF3403AT of 10 GB and I installed it without problems ( I 
wanted to have the more space possible ).

Anyway, FreeBSD version 3.2 installed perfectly on a disk of 10 GB but not 
in that SEAGATE specific model.

Thanks to all who offered help.
Special thanks to Eric De La Cruz Lugo and Raymond Hicks for their advice.


JB

Good.  That's what my conclusion was too.  If you recall, I had trouble 
with these disks a while ago.  They've finally died...  This was 
cvsup.nz.freebsd.org, but it's in the process of rebuilding the cvsup tree.

No, just looking for confirmation of the worst.

About an hour ago, I removed the two old full height 1GB SCSI drives 
and replaced them with a half-height 2GB SCSI drive.  Hopefully we'll 
get a year or so out of that disk.  The old ones lasted more than 18 
months.

thanks for the feedback Greg.

Done and done. I was a bit squeamish about removing /tmp.old, because it
seems to contain essential files for the running of my X server. But I
dumped / before proceding. 

The sockets were rm'd without any problem. And now /tmp is where I want
it. 

Of course, X still doesn't start. I am still rather troubled that
X requires certain files to be in /tmp in order to function properly.
That seems very wrong.

Oh yes. All the time. At least, in my case, I've got the name of a
*dead* SNL star. When he was alive people would constantly ask "Are you

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================

Last update 3 September 1999

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  If
you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender
thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your
message:

- You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate.
- You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read.
- You asked more than one unrelated question in one message.
- You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone.
- You sent out the same message more than once.
- You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.

If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you
will get more than one copy of this message from different people.
Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

This document is also available on the web at
http://www.lemis.com/questions.html.

I:    Introduction
II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:    How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

I: Introduction
===============

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the
questions (the "hackers").

       Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking
       into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
       activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out
       yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
       security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==============================================

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG.  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!

  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:

      unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey <grog@lemis.de>

  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS               User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed.  That's where
      keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy.  For
      example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
      grog@lemis.de.  Since then, I have changed it to
      grog@lemis.com.  If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from
      the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
      which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
      FreeBSD-questions.  If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
      which one it is and get your name taken off that one.  If you're
      not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
      messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
      clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things
out for you.  Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers?
===================================================

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers.  In addition, the
FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to
FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment.  In
some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask.  The
following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however:

     If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this
     isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ).  There's a list of these
     questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on
     your own system (once you've installed it) at
     /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html.  Check there, and if you don't find
     an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions.  Examples might be questions
     about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility.

     If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure,
     or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to
     FreeBSD-questions.

     If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that
     it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code
     where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.  You should also enter a problem
     report with the send-pr utility.

     If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can
     make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.

     If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as
     implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send
     the message to FreeBSD-hackers.

     If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own
     relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies.

There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for
example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet
Service Providers) who run FreeBSD.  If you happen to be an ISP, this
doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to
FreeBSD-isp.  The criteria above still apply, and it's in your
interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good
results that way.

IV:  How to submit a question
=============================

When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the
following points:

  1.  Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question.
      They do it of their own free will.  You can influence this free
      will positively by submitting a well-formulated question
      supplying as much relevant information as possible.  You can
      influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete,
      illegible, or rude question.  It's perfectly possible to send a
      message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you
      follow these rules.  It's much more possible to not get an
      answer if you don't.  In the rest of this document, we'll look
      at how to get the most out of your question to
      FreeBSD-questions.

  2.  Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message:
      they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests
      them.  Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject.
      ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough.  If you provide
      no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it.  If your
      subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may
      not read it.

  3.  Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T
      SHOUT!!!!!.  We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak
      English as their first language, and we try to make allowances
      for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message
      written full of typos or without any line breaks.  A lot of
      badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly
      configured mailers.  The following mailers are known to send out
      badly formatted messages without you finding out about them:

      Eudora
      exmh
      Microsoft Exchange
      Microsoft Internet Mail
      Microsoft Outlook
      Netscape

      As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent
      offenders.  If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer.  If you must
      use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set
      up correctly.  Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers
      which don't get on very well with MIME.

      For further information on this subject, check out
      http://www.lemis.com/email.html.

  4.  Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly.  This may
      seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but
      many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred
      messages a day.  They frequently sort the incoming messages by
      subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the
      first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to
      look.

  5.  Don't include unrelated questions in the same message.  Firstly,
      a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's
      more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the
      questions to read the message.

  6.  Specify as much information as possible.  This is a difficult
      area, and we need to expand on what information you need to
      submit, but here's a start:

         If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error
         messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No
         route to host'''.

         If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say
         (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free
         vnode isn't'''.

         If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us
         what hardware you have.  In particular, it's important to
         know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in
         your machine.

         If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the
         configuration.  Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of
         authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic
         IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file?

  7.  If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see
      your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend
      the message.  Wait at least 24 hours.  The FreeBSD mailer
      offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the
      world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to
      get through.  And once it gets through, the one person who might
      know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part
      of the world.

  8.  If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there
      could be other reasons.  For example, the problem is so
      complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does
      know the answer was offline.  If you don't get an answer after,
      say, a week, it might help to re-send the message.  If you don't
      get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably
      not going to get one from this forum.  Resending the same
      message again and again will only make you unpopular.

To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following
question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-).  You choose which of
these two questions you would be more prepared to answer:


Message 1:
Subject: (none)

I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong.

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

Message 2:
Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD

I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm
having a lot of difficulty installing it.  I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16
MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball
disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive.  The installation works just
fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing
Operating System".

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

V: How to follow up to a question
=================================

Often you will want to send in additional information to a question
you have already sent.  The best way to do this is to reply to your
original message.  This has three advantages:

1.  You include the original message text, so people will know what
    you're talking about.  Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out,
    though.

2.  The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to
    put one in, didn't you?).  Many mailers will sort messages by
    subject.  This helps group messages together.

3.  The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the
    previous message.  Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages,
    showing the exact relationships between the messages.

VI: How to answer a question
============================

Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider:

1.  A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to
    answering questions.  Read them.

2.  Has somebody already answered the question?  The easiest way to
    check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then
    (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all
    together.

    If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean
    that you shouldn't send another answer.  But it makes sense to
    read all the other answers first.

3.  Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been
    said?  In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much,
    although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a
    problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or
    whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software.  If
    you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further
    relevant information.

4.  Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the
    person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express
    himself very well.  Even with the best understanding of the system,
    it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question.  This
    doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question
    more frustrated or confused than ever.  If nobody else answers, and
    you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more
    information.

5.  Are you sure your answer is correct?  If not, wait a day or so.
    If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply
    and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since
    nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI
    CD-ROM with a frog?".

6.  Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender
    and to FreeBSD-questions.  Many people on the FreeBSD-questions
    are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to
    by others.  If you take a message which is of general interest off
    the list, you're depriving these people of their information.  Be
    careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with
    hundreds of CCs.  If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc:
    lines appropriately.

7.  Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the
    minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for
    somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what
    you're talking about.

8.  Use some technique to identify which text came from the original
    message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending
    ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space
    after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the
    original text both make the result more readable.

9.  Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it
    replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where
    each reply comes before the text to which it replies.

10.  Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a
     text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it
     automatically, you should do it manually.

11.  If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too
     long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it.  In the case of
     an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the
     subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was:
     HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread
     will have less difficulty following it.

     In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you
     did it, but try not to be rude.  If you find you can't answer
     without being rude, don't answer.

     If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format,
     just reply to the submitter, not to the list.  You can just send
     him this message in reply, if you like.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition




                         Last revision: 2 August 1999

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   The  result  is  that  most  leading  edge
computer  books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut  Creek,  is  no  exception.   In-
evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

The  following  is  a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.  They
relate to the third edition, formatted  on  17  May  1999.   You'll  find  this
information  on  page  iv  (the  page  before  the  beginning  of  the Table of
Contents).  See the end of this document for instructions on how  to  find  the
errata for an older version.

You can get the current document in four forms:

o A     PostScript     version,     suitable     for     printing    out,    at
  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third  edition
  to  find  out  how  to print out PostScript.  If at all possible, please take
  this document: it's closest to the original text.

  Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible  to
  reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When
  viewed with more or less,  this  version  will  show  some  highlighting  and
  underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

o An  ASCII-only  version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This
  version is posted every week to the  FreeBSD-questions  mailing  list.   Only
  take  this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure
  that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html.

All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing  source  text  of  the
book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well.  If you find a

_______

The instructions on page ii (opposite the title  page)  tell  you  to  look  at
ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2  for  the  errata  list.   That's wrong.
Look at this list.

Pages 190 and 191
_________________

The description is not very clear about which text appears  when  booting  from
floppy  for  initial  install,  and  which  appears when booting normally.  The
procedure is very similar, but there are some differences.  Add  the  following
text after the heading Boot messages:

You'll  boot  your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot
from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system.  Later, after the  system
is  installed,  you'll boot from hard disk.  The procedure is almost identical,
so we'll look at both versions in the following examples.

Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with:

If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see:

Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter:

When you insert the MFS root floppy and press  Enter,  you  see  more  twirling
batons, then the UserConfig screen appears.

UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration
____________________________________________

After  the  kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are
installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c  option  to  the
boot loader:

that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file

Page 265
________

The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver.   The
scsi  program  is  no  longer  available  in  FreeBSD  3.x.   Instead,  use the
camcontrol program.  Replace the text with:.

Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by  allocating  an
alternate sector for the data.  IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI
drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation.   Usually  it
is  turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not.  When installing a
new disk, you should check that the parameters  ARRE  (Auto  Read  Reallocation
Enable)  and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on.  For example,
to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter:

# camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3
# scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3

This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one  specified  in
the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data:

AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld):  0
ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld):  1
TB (Transfer Block):  0
RC (Read Continuous):  0
EER (Enable Early Recovery):  0
PER (Post Error):  0
DTE (Disable Transfer on Error):  0
DCR (Disable Correction):  0
Read Retry Count:  16
Correction Span:  41
Head Offset Count:  0
Data Strobe Offset Count:  0
Write Retry Count:  16
Recovery Time Limit:  0

The  values  for  AWRE  and  ARRE should both be 1.  If they aren't, as in this
case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit.  The
camcontrol  program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option.


                                                                         Page 3

________

The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0.  This  is  the  old
name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should
be da0.

Thanks  to  Francisco  Reyes  <francisco@natserv.com>  for  pointing  out  this
problem.

Page 362
________

Replace the text at the top of the page with:

Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel:

# cd ../../compile/FREEBIE
# make depend
# make

   The  make  depend  is needed even if the directory has just been created:
   apart from creating dependency information, it also  creates  some  files
   needed for the build.
Thanks to Mark Ovens <marcov@globalnet.co.uk> for drawing this to my attention,
and   to   Francisco   Reyes   <francisco@natserv.com>   and   Bill    Fumerola
<billf@jade.chc-chimes.com>  for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the
third edition.

Page 409
________

The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end  of  the
PPP  links  in  some  places.  It should always be the ``far'' end of the link.
Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following  it,  with  this
text:

defaultrouter="139.130.136.129"    # Set to default gateway (or NO).
static_routes=""              # Set to static route list (or leave empty).
gateway_enable="YES"               # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway.

This  is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface.
In fact, for PPP you don't  need  to  specify  the  default  address:  the  PPP
packages will set it for you when the link comes up.  This makes it possible to

Page 4






                     Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition


set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP  addresses,  where  you
don't know the address at this point.  We'll see how PPP does this on page 446.

In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the  second
example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with:


defaultrouter="139.130.237.65"          # Set to default gateway (or NO).


Thanks to Andreas Longwitz <longwitz@Incore.de> for pointing out this error.

Getting errata for older editions of the book
_____________________________________________

There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''.
The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date,  which  you'll
find  at  the  bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of
Contents) in all versions of the book.

1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and  was  formatted
  on 24 February 1996.  No errata list exists for this book.

2. For  the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er-
  rata-1.   This   same   file   is   also   available   via   the   web   link
  http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list.

3. The  list  for  the  second  edition (16 December 1997) is available in four
  forms:

  o A    PostScript    version,    suitable    for     printing     out,     at
    ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps.  See  page  222  of  the  second
    edition to find out how to print  out  PostScript.   If  at  all  possible,
    please take this document: it's closest to the original text.

    Be  careful  selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible
    to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

  o An enhanced ASCII  version  at  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt.
    When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and
    underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

  o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This
    version  is  posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list.  Only

                                                                         Page 5






Getting errata for older editions of the book


    take this version if you have real problems with  PostScript:  I  can't  be
    sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

  o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html.

4. The  revised  second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999.  As the name
  suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three  chapters  are
  different:

  o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date.

  o Appendix  D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two
    appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time)
    and  ``FreeBSD  3.0'',  which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x
    and FreeBSD 3.x.

  There is no separate errata list for this book.  Refer to the second  edition
  errata list.

5. The  current,  third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999.  This is the correct
  list for this edition.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition

o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the  following  command  to  find
  process information:

  $ ps aux | grep foo

  Unfortunately,  ps  is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator
  upon which it is working.  This command usually works fine  on  a  relatively
  wide  xterm,  but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate
  exactly the information you're looking for, so you end  up  with  no  output.
  You can fix that with the w option:

  $ ps waux | grep foo

Location of the sample files
____________________________

On  the  2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the
specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).  The 2.2.5 CD-ROM  came
out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM
as a single gzipped tar file  /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.   It  contains  the
following files:

See page 209 for more information on using tar.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book.  I'll put up
some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future.

Thanks  to Frank McCormick <gfm@readybox.com> for drawing this to my attention.

Chapter 8: Setting up X11
_________________________

For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical
to   distribute   errata.    You  can  download  the  PostScript  version  from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps,   or   the    ASCII    version    from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt.  No HTML version is available.

Page xxxiv
__________

Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add:

In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents
(sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh).  With the exception of sh, they are all  in  the
Ports Collection.  I personally use the bash shell.

This  is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard
shell.  The standard BSD shell is the  C  shell  (csh),  which  has  a  fuller-
featured  descendent  tcsh.   In particular, the standard installation sets the
root user up with a csh.  See page 152 (in this errata) for details of  how  to
change the shell.




                                                                         Page 3

Page 11: Reading the handbook
_____________________________

The  CD-ROM  now includes Netscape.  Replace the last paragraph on the page and
the example on the following page with:

If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the  handbook.
If you don't have X running yet, use lynx.  Both of these programs are included
on the CD-ROM.  To install them, enter:

# pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz
or
# pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz

The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change  after  this  book  has
been  printed.   Use  ls  to  list the names if you can't find these particular
versions.

Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape:  since  it  is  text-
only,  it  is  not  capable  of  displaying  the  large  majority  of web pages
correctly.  It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however.

Thanks to Stuart Henderson <stuart@internationalschool.co.uk> and <gkaplan@cas-
tle.net> for drawing this to my attention.

Page 12: Printing the handbook
______________________________

The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete.  Replace the section
starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text:

Alternatively,  you  can  print  out  the  handbook.   You  need  to  have  the
documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system.  You can  find  them
on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name.  To install them, first
mount your CD-ROM (see page 175).  Then enter:

$ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook
$ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook            you may need to be root for this operation
$ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook

You have a choice of formats for the output:

o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII  output,  suitable  for  reading  on  a
  character-mode terminal.

Page 4






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser.

o latex  will  give  you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX
  and LATEX.

o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing.

o roff will give you output in troff source.  You can process this output  with
  nroff  or  troff,  but  it's  currently not very polished.  LATEX output is a
  better choice if you want to process it further.

Once you have decided your format,  use  make  to  create  the  document.   For
example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter:

$ make FORMATS=ps

This  creates  a  file  handbook.ps  which  you  can then print to a PostScript
printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222).

Thanks to Bob Beer <r-beer@onu.edu> for drawing this to my attention.

The  floppy  set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start
with bin. followed by two letters.  These other  files  are  all  240640  bytes
long,  except  for the final one which is usually shorter.  Use the MS-DOS COPY
program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until  you've
got  all  the  distributions  you  want  packed  up in this fashion.  Copy each
distribution into subdirectory corresponding to  the  base  name--for  example,
copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on.

all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both.

If  you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver
is included in the kernel.  The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both  mice,
but the PS/2 driver is disabled.  Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it.

Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph:

If  you  do  manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost.  Reboot the
machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter:

# mount -u /             mount root file system read/write
# mount /usr             mount /usr file system (if separate)
# passwd root            change the password for root
Enter new password:
Enter password again:
# ^D                enter ctrl-D to continue with startup

If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it
as  well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin.  Note that you
should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system  doesn't
have the concept of user IDs.

corresponding individual files.

In  addition,  login  classes  (page  141)  offer  another  method  of  setting
environment variables at a global level.

Changing your shell
___________________

The  FreeBSD  installation  gives root a C shell, csh.  This is the traditional
Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line  editing  is
very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of
the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay
with  the  C  shell,  you  may  still need to understand the Bourne shell.  The
latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line  editing.
See page 148 for details of how to enable it.

You  can  get  better  command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection.
You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash,
also in the Ports Collection.

If  you  have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a
more general way: use chsh (Change Shell).  Simply run the program.  It  starts
your  favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable).  Here's
an example before:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /bin/csh
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location:
Office Phone:
Home Phone:

You can change anything after the colons.  For example, you might  change  this
to:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location: On the road
Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999
Home Phone:

Page 10






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


chsh  checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and
exit the editor.  The next time you log in, you get the new shell.  chsh  tries
to  ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the
name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a  very
good  idea  to  check  the shell before logging out.  You can try this with su,
which you normally use to become super user:

bumble# su velte
Password:
su-2.00$                 note the new prompt

There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell:

o The shell for root must be on the root file system,  otherwise  it  will  not
  work  in single user mode.  Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell
  in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is  almost  never  on  the  root  file
  system.

o Most  shells  are  dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files
  such as /usr/lib/libc.a.  These files are not available in single user  mode,
  so  the shells won't work.  You can solve this problem by creating statically
  linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond
  the scope of this book.

If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps
to install it:

o Copy the shell to /bin, for example:

  # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin

o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells,  in this example the line  in  bold
  print:

  # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1).
  # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using
  # one of these shells.
  /bin/sh
  /bin/csh
  /bin/bash


You can then change the shell for root as described above.


                                                                        Page 11

Add the following paragraph

Unmounting file systems

When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and
in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file  system.
This  is the same effect we discussed on page 158.  As a result, if you want to
stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it.   You  do  this
with  the umount command.  Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name.

You need to do this even with read-only  media  such  as  CD-ROMs:  the  system
assumes  it  can  access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite
unhappy if it can't.  Where possible, it locks  removable  media  so  that  you
can't remove them from the device until you unmount them.

Using  umount  is  straightforward:  just  tell  it what to unmount, either the
device name or the directory name.  For  example,  to  unmount  the  CD-ROM  we

Page 12






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands:

# umount /dev/cd1a
# umount /cd1

Before  unmounting  a  file  system, umount checks that nobody is using it.  If
somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like  umount:
/cd1:  Device  busy.   This  message often occurs because you have changed your
directory to a directory on the file system you want to  remove.   For  example
(which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt):

=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1
umount: /cd1: Device busy
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 ->

ttypv,  ttyq0  through  ttyqv,  ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0
through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv,  ttyR0  through  ttyRv  and  ttyS0  through
ttySv.   To  create  each  set  of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the
first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7.  Note that some processes,  such
as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv.

spooled  jobs.   By default it isn't started at boot time.  If you're root, you
can start it by name:

# lpd

Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system
starts up.  You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf:

lpd_enable="YES"              # Run the line printer daemon

See page  for more details of /etc/rc.conf.

Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon:

lpd_flags=""        # Flags to lpd (if enabled).

You  don't  normally  need  to  change this line.  See the man page for lpd for
details of the flags.

The  Berkeley  Packet  Filter  (bpf)  allows  you to capture packets crossing a

that  this  capability represents a significant compromise of network security.
The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes  that  can  use
the facility.  Not all network interfaces support bpf.

In  order  to  use  the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device
nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4).   Current-
ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately:

Problems executing Linux binaries
_________________________________

One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux  binaries  is
that  they  usually  contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries.
They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries.  That's  not  really  a
problem  at  this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands
is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format  as  well,
and  of  course  that's  the default.  If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on
such a system, you must brand the executable using the program  brandelf.   For
example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter:

# brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3

tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and  displays  selected
information which passes through it.  It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf),

see page 257 for information on how to configure it.

If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like

tcpdump: /dev/bpf0:  device not configured

If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like:

tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory

Since  tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to
run it.  The simplest way to run it is without any parameters.  This will cause
tcpdump  to  monitor  and  display  all  traffic  on  the  first active network
interface, normally Ethernet:

  since there is no reply.

o Line 2 is not an IP message at all.  tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and
  the beginning of the packet.  We don't consider this kind of request in  this
  book.

o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message.  We looked at ntp on page 160.

o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait.

o Line  5  is  a  broadcast  message  from  bumble  on  the  rwho  port, giving
  information about its current load averages and how long it has been up.  See
  the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information.

o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on
  presto.  It is sending 384 bytes (with  the  sequence  numbers  536925467  to
  536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received
  from presto had the sequence number 325114346.  The window size is 17280.

o Line 7 is another ARP request.  presto is looking for the Ethernet address of
  freebie.   How  can  that  happen?   We've  just  seen  that  they have a TCP
  connection.  In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes.   It's  quite
  possible  that  all  connections between presto and freebie have been dormant
  for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again.

o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address.

o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw  on
  line  6.   It  acknowledges  the  data  up  to sequence number 536925851, but
  doesn't send any itself.

o Line 10 shows  another  448  bytes  of  data  from  freebie  to  presto,  and
  acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6.

Page 450: anonymous ftp
_______________________

Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp:

Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home  directory  and
the  shell  /dev/null.  Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log
in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp.  ftp  can
be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group
to /etc/group.  See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page
on page 805 for adding groups.

  To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our  case,  mail.example.net),  find

Dear Sirs.

I installed StarOffice now successfully on several machines - but the
target machines were freshly installed. I have still trouble installing 
StarOffice 5.2 on the main server and the error seems really to be curious.

After the download the installationscript starts extraction and after
determining the glibc-version of the Linux emulation (I got the newest
stuff from the ports now) I receive an error message like this:

could not find shared library libvos1GCC.so

Nnormally, this library resides in /usr/local/office52/program. Obviously
is the installation routine seeking for this lib before it is installed.
How does it come? I search the whole tree for another lib like this bit
there is no one else. 

It seems that something went wrong with my installation on the main server,
but I can not simply reinstall all the stuff, so I have to look for the
mistake by hand.

Has anybody ideas how to track down the problem or is this problem known?

Please email me, thanks in advance,

Oliver

Instead of downloading just the files/directories, you should download the
ISO image of the release you want. Then burn that to CD.. they are
available at:
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/<__yourArchType__>/ISO_IMAGES/

Y'know, I installed FreeBSD 4.2 with the default partitioning (I was in a hurry... ;-) and as a result /tmp is on the root partition which is, of course, very tiny... so I moved /tmp to /usr/real-tmp and made a symlink to it and have had no problems since...

I simply did:

brx# mv /tmp /usr/real-tmp
brx# ln -s /usr/real-tmp /tmp

That's the idea that my usual setup of running sendmail with

	sendmail -q5m

is based on.  No smtp-listener on "dumb" machines, and a SMART_HOST set up
properly is all one needs, and everything is fine :-)

What errors are you receiving when you start X?  You DID go into
single-user mode to move /tmp, right?  I have never heard of so many
problems moving /tmp, and, frankly, there shouldn't be.  I've done it
myself many a time on busy systems and X workstations.... And 90% of my
machines put /tmp on MFS anyway... so it's cleared on reboot. (Like that
ever happens :-)  The other 10% symlink it to /var/tmp, and no machines
have ever had any problems, beyond the occasional large email attachment
filling a sometimes small MFS partition. :-)

Make sure that you:
	o Don't have any open files on /tmp.  Check with fstat(1).
	  i.e.,  # fstat /tmp

	o Stop X, xdm, and any daemons that use /tmp (basically,
	  just about everything :-)

	Better to just boot into single user mode.

	o Execute:
	  # cd /		 # cd /tmp is a _bad_ idea :-)
	  # rm -Rf tmp		 # mv(1) won't unlink the inode
	  # ln -s /var/tmp	 # create the symlink
	  # chmod 1777 /var/tmp  # ..though it should be already

	o And carry on

If X continues to have problems, make sure that:
	o /var/tmp (or whatever) is rwxrwxrwt, owned by root:wheel, and
	  has no file flags set (immutable, for example)
	o The directory is initially empty (to be sure no funny
	  temp files are hanging around that would conflict with X)

If those two points are satisfied, I suggest checking your X configuration
again, and forwarding any startup error messages to the list.  "X doesn't
start" doesn't allow anyone to provide much more information than this :-)  
Run your X startup script under script(1) to grab all the stdout/stderr
output that you might otherwise miss.

I don't know exactly WHERE you intend to move /tmp in the last place, but
it couldn't hurt to check the properties of that device to ensure that
everything is working as expected there. If you are doing something more
complex than another BSD file system, ensure that you don't get hung up
that way.  Do some tests of your own on the destination partition.

I've probably reiterated some of what has gone before, but perhaps in my
detail I have identified a contingency that hasn't yet been checked.

I _am_ joining the thread a bit late, so if I missed something important
in the earlier messages which I only skimmed, let me know.

My 4.2-stable server froze up this evening while under heavy NFS load.  I
was a few hours into a "glimpseindex -o" on an NFS filesystem.  The load
average hovered nicely at around 1.0.  since this is our main server, it
had 49 NFS filesystems mounted.

anyhow, what does one do to troubleshoot freezes?  there is nothing useful
in /var/log/messages, but i had seen many entries like the following
earlier this week:

Dec  4 16:10:19 msg /kernel: got bad cookie vp 0xcf29ae00 bp 0xc643ba60
Dec  4 16:24:48 msg /kernel: got bad cookie vp 0xcf319cc0 bp 0xc64a2ca0
Dec  4 16:24:51 msg /kernel: got bad cookie vp 0xcf319cc0 bp 0xc649b950

hardware = athlon 750, abit ka7-100, mylex raid controller, 256MB ECC ram.

or am i S.O.L. since it's PC hardware?  i'm used to computers from DEC and 
SGI which tell you nice things when crashing like, "SIMM in slot 2 is 
bad".  unfortunately i haven't seen such capable diagnostics on PC 
hardware except on high-end IBM servers.

Can someone reccomend a FreeBSD compatable program that can rip audio
tracks from a ATAPI cd-rom  drive?  It looks like /ports/audio/cdd could
rip from an ATAPI cd-rom (because it is mentioned as a requirement for
the ripit-atapi port), but I can't make it because it says that it uses
the "pre-CAM" SCSI layer.  Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks for this.
Some kind person offered me a Christmas present.  Naturally I opted for  "The
Complete FreeBSD".
Will a Fourth edition, covering v4 (or even 4.2) be available soon?  In
Adelaide?

Well, Do you have a 3.5.1 CD set? What model is the ThinkPad? Where did this
FreeBSD bootdisk appear from?

There are plenty of good applications that are not part of "Packages"

Where is a good place to install them?
/usr/local ?
/usr/home/ ?
/usr/local/etc ?
/usr/local/share ?

I know I could install them anywhere but where is a "secure" place to do so.

I dont want to have my trash all over the system.
Thanks... IN Advance.

hi,
I noticed with the iso image for 4.2 that it does not have the

I installed kde2.0 and nothing but problems, most of the apps would =

now i realize bsd has no control ove kde project but I was wondering if =
you have had
other complaints concerning kde2.0, or possibly a work around I did chk  =
there web sight and a few bugs (grave) concerning
logging off was addressed but no fix to date

all else considered freeBSD 4.2 is a gem, am looking forward to the =
commercial release 11th of dec
will be using it to replace linux after 4 years of use

tnx for your ear!!!

Hi, All:

When I just boot up my FBSD-3.3-R box, it keeps displaying following
weird error messages in length for the first time:

...
Dec 8 23:14:21 mycomputer /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (0000 != 0080).
Dec 8 23:14:21 mycomputer /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0080).
Dec 8 23:14:21 mycomputer /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (0040 != 0080).
...

What is wrong with this?  The last time the machine worked well without
any problem.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.


-Paul

Recently I have noticed quite a few inquiries pertaining too PPPoE on 
FreeBSD. 

I came across this link to an, IMO, excellent tutorial that I now use, 
in the archives recently, which has worked extremely well in my setup. 
It gives a great overview and description of PPPoE and especially the 
setup on FreeBSD.

Hope it helps you all with the PPPoE pains.....

according to the Filesystems Hierarchy Standard 1 (FHS) Version 2.1
/sbin, /bin, and /usr are reserved for the base OS and it's dependant
packages.  more or less essential packages are to be built and installed
in /usr/local/bin.  non-essential applications and add-ons are to be
installed in /opt/<package>/ (with binaries in /opt/<package>/bin).

and technically you're supposed to create a seperate disk partition for
/opt.

hope that helps.

peace,
brian

	I am installing FreebSD on 4 machines for use at work. All of the
	machines are varios models of HP Vectras. All are Pentium 1's of
	various speeds from 75 to 90 MHZ. They have various generations of Hp's
	BIOS. I have installed brand new 20G Quantum drives in all of the.

	3 of the four are fine. However the 4'th one (which I think has a
	_newer_ BIOS that the others) Will not boot after doing an install. I
	just get "Read Error".

	I have played around with the setting relating to the hard disk in the
	bIOS, but have not lucked up on a combination that works.

	Can anyone give me some advice on how they should be set up? The BISO
	comments actually talk about "UNIX" operating systems. For example
	recomending that "transfer mode" be ste to stnadard. But i think it's
	refering to SCO. This machine has a "Runing Windows 95" choice which I
	have ste to "NO". Should I have LBA on or off? 

	BTW the machine has a "auto detect" of had disk drive, but when I use
	it, I don;t get anything thta looks like the blocks/cylinders/sectors
	reported by dmesg on the 3 working systems.

	Help, please.

Thanks Matt Rudderham:

But I can't command MAKEDEV at /dev.  When it executes, it says it can't be
found MAKEDEV...

I looked up /dev directory and I found many 'Operator' along with usual
wheel.  Have I been hacked?

I copied the GENERIC kernel to WIEGAND, ran vi to add one
line at the bottom of the file -
device	pcm		then ran
/usr/sbin/config -g WIEGAND		and all is okay
../../compile/WIEGAND		and get the following error:
cc -c -0 -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith
-Winline -Wcast-qual -fformat-extensions -ansi -g -nostdinc

../../dev/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.h:40: aic7xxx_reg.h:
no such file or directory Error Code 1
stop in /usr/src/sys/compile/WIEGAND

I then ran vi WIEGAND and found one line with aic and 
commented out that one line, reran the above and got
the same results. I then deleted WIEGAND and started 
over but did not comment out the aic line, just added
the device pcm only, and now get access denied even 
though I am doing this as root.

I can't find a log file of the errors, is there one?
I wrote all that stuff down on paper then typed it all
in this long-hand.
Help please, I just want to enable a sb64 card.

  # config WIEGAND
  Don't forget to do a ``make depend''
  Kernel build directory is ../../compile/WIEGAND

	Hi, I recently aquired the 4.4BSD System Manager's Manual out of
the Usenix/Oreilly set.  I was wondering how much of it is applicable to
FreeBSD, and how much of it is too out of date to be useful.  Some
obviously are not like the chapter on installing on architectures like the
HP9000. I'm especially interested in the chapters on fsck and FFS.  How
applicable are they?  I don't want to study something that is incorrect.
Could someone that has it or knows it well comment on what chapters to
avoid perhaps? I would really appreciate it.  Thanks,
	
					Tim

Odd.  I've switched out NICs a nontrivial number of times and haven't had any
problems.  Certainly nothing warranteeing a reinstall.  Sometimes I've juggled
IP addresses between two cards in the same system without rebooting.  No
probs.

There is the possibility that arp tables aren't updating quickly enough
before you give up and try again.  I'm certainly no networking guru, but I've
seen machines which believed the IP address of another machine to reside at
an old NIC when a new one had been swapped in the meantime (IP address to
hardware translations are kept in the routing tables).  Usually required
flushing the tables on the culprit and letting them update, or waiting the
(hopefully short) time for them to update themselves.  I have no idea how long
FreeBSD waits for this...I've never timed it.

What does /sbin/ifconfig -a report when you do this?

hihi,
      i have installed freebsd from the CDROM .
I have encountered the following problems

when i started running squid which i key in 
./squid.shi get the foolowing messages which were 
commBind: cannot bind socket FD 36 to
*3128:(48)Address already in use.cannot open HTTP port
fatal error!!!

when i do a squid -k, i don't get the statement
accepting HTTP connections on port 3128, FD 36.

Furthermore, i didn't even start squid but it is
already running!!!!!  How can that be right?????
It can't be running on its own correct????

Is there really something wrong????????

Subject: Partition Magic, Windows 98 & FreeBSD
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

I've been trying to figure out how to partition my hard drive
which is on a Toshiba laptop with 4.2gb of space, so that I
can add FreeBSD & be able to study it more & learn while I'm
away from home on my job. Is FreeBSD like so many other OS's
where the 1024 cylinder comes into play? That is, because the
Windows 98 install takes up so much room, even after cleaning
out as much as possible, there is only 1.35gb of free space,
so am wondering even if I successfully install FreeBSD, will
it boot from beyond the 1024 cylinder?  If I use Partiton
Magic to add a partition, should it be a primary, extended or
logical partition & if the 1024 cylinder point is crucial,
will I have to move part of my Windows 98 to another partition?
Lot of questions, but have tried to find the answer in the
FreeBSD book, as well as at the FreeBSD web site & in news
groups, to no avail. Thanks for any & all help you can give
me on this issue.

Yeah, for whatever reason I figured doing the make was 
the same, in your book (3rd ed. 1999) it shows make with 
the depend. Was this corrected in one of the addendums I 
haven't read all of? :)
Anyway, now the following happens quite a ways in to the 
process (I'm now running make depend) -
===> agp
make: don't know how to make apg_if.c stop
error code 2
stop in /usr/src/sys/modules
error code 1
stop in /usr/src/sys/compile/WIEGAND

I went through the WIEGAND kernel and do not see any 
references to agp at all. What am I missing now?
Shoot, I've done a kernel rebuild on another machine
in the past with no problems whatsoever.

Did you also remember to change the target "ident" form GENERIC to
WIEGAND near the top of the file?

If you need to send the output of something, try script(1).

A typical session would be accomplished like this...

# cd /sys/i386/conf
# script
Script started, output file is typescript
# config WIEGAND
Don't forget to do a ``make depend''
Kernel build directory is ../../compile/WIEGAND
# cd ../../compile/WIEGAND
# make depend
.. make depend output ..
# make
.. make output ..
# make install
.. install (short output) ..
# exit
exit

Script done, output file is typescript

You can then send us portions of the file "typescript" from the current
directory that show the errors.  There are many more options with
script(1).  man 1 script.

Yup.  It's counterintuitive to *require* a make depend if you have
just created the directory, and it took me a while to realise that
people depended on it.

These are the modules, not the kernel.  I don't know why this isn't
working, but it points to problems in your makefile configuration.
The good news is that you don't need it.  Just go back and build the
kernel.

Well, I have not read the book... But I can tell you that fsck and FFS
haven't radically changed across 4.4BSD implementations.  Stay away from
architecture dependent sections (except for possibly the i386 :-), as
that's where the majority of changes take place.  Each OS varies only very
slightly at administration level (/etc/rc.d vs /usr/local/etc/rc.d, some
slight differences in syntax for system commands...).  A good handbook
will tell you 10% of what you need to know in the subject area.  Leave the
rest up to the man pages :-)

You'll never find a printed UNIX reference that is 100% "correct". :-)

Thanks, my 5 unix books, 1 freebsd book and 5 linux books don't 
even mention typescript or script (except in the other contexts).
Thanks for the tip.

I was wondering, is it a good idea or bad idea to use softupdates on a

Okay, so I ran make (I am assuming that is what you mean by
'build'
the kernel). And I got the following error this time -

-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 ../../i386/i386/bioscall.s
/tmp/ccmx5306.s:Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccmx5306.s:775:Error:operands don't match any known 386
instruction
/tmp/ccmx5306.s:840:Error:operands don't match any known 386
instruction
Error code 1

This is getting deeper into the operating system now isn't it?

Well, the 1024 rule with LBA turned on is usually aroung 8.4GB. You
most likely don't need to worry. With only 1.35GB, you probably can't
play with building systems and such. I think they need more room but
I've never done things like "make clean", which removes files used to
do the install, when I get through with an install and that biases my
space requirements. I was creating /tmp's that were on the order of
1.5GB. If you only create a / and swap, you will use all of the disk
that you have. If you run out of space, at some point the system shuts
down. That will be a definition point on what you can do.

The rule on swap is 2x memory. With a CD around, an install doesn't
take long and if you make a serious error in judgement, you can change
it in the next version. I believe that if you aren't making mistakes,
you aren't learning anything. There are a number of tutorials on
www.freebsd.org that will help you.

FreeBSD 4.1 and later doesn't have a cylinder 1024 rule. It has to be
a primary partition or slice in the FreeBSD terminology. I have
multi-boot machines with FreeBSD located between my primary partition
(Windows) and the extended partition. I also have FreeBSD located
after the extended partition. You are permitted to have 4 partitions
and the primary and extended only represent 2 partitions. I tried to
install Linux on one of those systems but got hopelessly confused,
removed it, and continued to install FreeBSD on all of them.

I used Partition magic to adjust the Windows partitions.

I suggest you to drop KDE and to use GNOME. I am a developer and i
tried to begin KDE programming on BSD, but there are too many bugs in
KDE 2 and it is slow as hell (this is no BSD problem, itŽs a KDE
problem). Gnome is the better choice. The old days
of a strange-looking Gnome Gui is over and everything looks well.

I have dropped KDE some days ago and I will not use it anymore. There
are too less cvs mirrors, i have no real way to download bugfixes,
always the probs with the lame environment variables for QT and so on. No
more again. Gnome rules, I want a clear design and a fast + bugfree
environment.

Hi Armand,

> so am wondering even if I successfully install FreeBSD, will
> it boot from beyond the 1024 cylinder?

In Addition to Kent: If the 1024 cylinder boundary really troubles you
because of some strange CHS translation, note that the primary slice
you create with Partition Magic can be divided into (Unix) partitions.
Only the / partition has to be completely under the 1024 cylinder
boundary. As Kent said, it would be better to have only / and a swap
partition as Unix partitions inside your one primary slice to avoid
wasting space. MurphyŽs law states, that itŽs always the partition
with the smallest freespace, that is needed most :-) And your 1,4 GB
isnŽt very much indeed.
So if really 1024 cylinder matters, think of reinstalling Win also
with a LBA translation of your disk then in your BIOS (i.e. 63 sectors
and 255 heads per cylinder => 1024 cylinder thus being around 8 GB).

Ciao
Siegbert

I use dagrab (/usr/ports/audio/dagrab) to rip CDs.  Then I use
/usr/ports/audio/gogo to encode the .wav files into .mp3 format.  Or
rather, my modified version of the ripit-atapi perl script does that.

works fine with bsd and linux clients.
I am trying to configure a Windows 98 client on the same
LAN, and I am completely de-skilled !
Is there a simple way of doing this, or simple instructions
somewhere - what is so diabolical in Windows is every time you
change anything you have to re-boot the frigging thing !
Life is too short for this .. any help appreciated !


Cliff

(My own advice to myself is dont use Win 98, unfortunately
that is not an option)

if you're just joe user, it maybe a suid issue. try su'ing to root and
starting starting xdm and then login as joe user to see if that works
for you.

You mount_msdos /dev/ad0s1 /dos or what ever. If it is a logical in
the extended partition, then the slice starts like ad0s5, and etc.

I've just downlaoded the tarball for wine 20001202.  I
extracted it and followed the instructions in the
README file.  I get to the stage where I do 'make
install' and I hit a problem:

"/usr/libexec/elf/ld: warning: type and size of
dynamic symbol `CALL32_Regs' are not defined
make: don't know how to make libcomm.so. Stop
*** Error code 2
"

Is a port (or even better - a package) of 20001202
underway?  I am eagerly awaiting it!

Thanks,
Paul

	I am setting up 4 recycled HP Vectras for use at work. Sure is nice m$
	keeps providing me with free computers, as they get more and more
	resource hungr :-)

	3 of them are P75's, and 1 is a P90 The P75'a have BIOS'es
	D.08.01,D.06.03, and D.08.03. I am isntalling brand new Quantam 20G IDE
	drives as the only thing on the IDE busses (No CD's).

	When I look in Setup on all the P75's, I see that they are detecting
	the disks as 8468MB 16383/63/16 preload -116382 Ther is an XL flag
	which is on on some, and off on oters.

	All these machines boot fine after I do an install (from the hard
	disks). The P90 however I have been unable to get to boot after
	repeated installs :-(

	It Has BIOS version GT.07.02. The setup screen here has many more
	options related to hard disk. First It wan'ts to know if I want to use
	"Standard" or,"Extended" transfer methi\od. Rhere is a note that
	"Standard" might need to be used on "UNIX" systems, I think this might
	mean SCO. This option is gloabal to all the IDE controlers/disks on the
	machine.

	On a per disk bassis, the choces are:

	Multi Sector Transfers: disable/2/4/8/16
	LBA mode control enabled/disabled
	32 bit I/O Enabled/Disbaled
	Transfer mode standard/Fast Pio 1,2,3, or 4

	Considering it takes about 30 to 45 minutes to do a minimal install to
	test each choice, and that there are a lareg number of choices :-( I
	could be here a while (days ?).

	Can some kkind soul that understands the hardware issues here, pleas
	educate me?

	Thanks!

On Saturday 09 December 2000 05:15, you wrote:

Just compile/install the port, it works fine. You might want to compile qt2.2 
as well (before kde). I wouldn't use snapshots from the kde website. Get 
lesstif before compiling if you want Netscape plugins to work with Konqueror. 
If you want to be able to run java applets as well, you can install a jdk 
before or afterwards (the 1.2.2beta works well although it takes long to 
download and compile all pieces).

Boris: I really have no idea why anyone would have gnome prevail over kde 
because of stability issues, I *really* don't. Don't like the look, don't 
like the apps, fine... but don't tell me its so very unstable, thats nonsense.

I think most of the debugging code has been taken out now, I don't find it 
slow at all. Also, I expect a kde2.01 port pretty soon (kde2.01 has mainly 
bugfixes).

Best regards,

Danny

ASUS V7100 GFORCE2M 32 MB Video card
128 MB 133 Mhz memory

Does anyone have any comments or experience of such
a specification for FreeBSD

Harware compaibility lists never really tell you whether it will all work 
together...

Thanks you in anticipation

Cliff

It's great! Thanks a lot for the link!
I installed and started it with no problems.
Very professional and rich in functions.

try installing the ports collection (http://www.freebsd.org/ports/)
and then...
cd /usr/ports/emulators/wine
make install
p.s. the port version mentioned here is 2000.10.26 (as shown in the
Makefile)

Everyone has another opinion. The KDE Webbrowser K... is always
hanging up with a strange exception. Sometimes the menu bar has
doubled entries. Gnome applications seems to be faster (i mean the
gui). KDE is very SLOW. The CVS Server is very often not accessible
(overloaded) and so on. KDE is history for me. Maybe i will look
sometimes how the developing is going on but i am not interested in
coding apps for KDE at the moment or for the next months.

The only "problem" you might experience is with the graphics
card and X Windows.
Find out if the chipset is supported in X and your good to go.

Running the setup you are talking about therefor the only
problem I might see is with the Video Card.

Check out asus hompage for techi info, and search the
HAL list of X.

I'd recommend the Abit motherboard over the Asus. I've been building the 
Athlon commercially for almost two years now and I've had too many failures 
with the Asus, plus there's a known bug about a crazy alarm on the Asus 
(check out their site for more details, check the message threads on their 
suport pages) that is causing lots of grief. Plus I'd go with the Guillimot 
card, for no other reason than I'm just a little skittish about Asus

> coding apps for KDE at the moment or for...

Well, I can understand that especially with all the "this time you need QT
release x.y.z for a change" that kept popping up when kde2 was still
in beta. From what I've gathered though it would be easier coding for qt/kde
then it is for gtk/gnome but I have no experience with that myself.

Still, as an environment to work with rather than work on (as I do),
admittedly with 256megs of ram, I feel its all could ask for at this time.
Sure I'm biased like everyone else :-) but I think the konqueror browser is
the most important improvement that kde has for the end user (ok if/when
working properly). It's so much nicer than netscape.

I don't have random crashes or anything like that with kde, but sure it's not
perfect (aRTS anyone?) and it probably will never be. But I do think that
it's a good thing that the kde folks did a rewrite and really made everything
modularized much like windows is (meant to). People will disagree about this.
In fact, I believe this is where the whole kde/gnome wars bog down to on any
level from user experience up to developers interests/likings.

I hope I wont get flamed for having discussions in a Q & A mailinglist...

Grtz,

Danny

I've got a Linksys Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet
10/100 network card. Model NC100 version 2.0

I got if_al.c and if_alreg.h from freebsd.org.

The only instructions said to build compiler
environment on FreeBSD system and compile source
code to produce a binary code.

On a wild hunch I put the two files in /sys/pci/ 
Do I need to add any device lines or whatever
to kernal? Put the files in some other directory?

I've got FreeBSD 3.2-Release and I'm new to all this!

Thanks for any pointers.

Greetings,

I am attempting to build FreeBSD 3.5-STABLE on my current 3.4-STABLE
system.  I'm running into the following problem:

I downloaded a fresh source tree, but that didn't seem to help.  Any
thoughts, suggestions, etc. will be greatly appreciated!  Thanks in

Yep, that's exactly it.. everyone has their own opinion.. I've found that
people are almost as passionate in their support of their GUI choice
(KDE/GNOME etc) as they are about their OS families (*BSD, *nix, Win*) or
they software licences (GNU, GPL)... 

I'll be the first to admit that installing KDE2 on FreeBSD is not a walk
in the park.. but in my opinion the trouble is worth it.. I've used GNOME
for about month altogether in the past, but I always went back to KDE
eventually...

Regis, can I phone a friend? I recently got a Toshiba Satellite 330CDS
and eventually got the pccard NIC working, and am quite happy with it
now. One of the guys I work with is a potential BSD convert, and I
offered to install on his Toshiba Satellite 225CDS laptop for him. I
was able to use the pccard NIC to do an FTP install over the LAN here,
but now I can't get it to recognize it since the reboot. I've removed
the word "disable" from the pcic1 line in the kernel (as I had to do
on the other laptop). I've copied the pccard.conf from /etc/defaults
to /etc. I've enabled it in /etc/rc.conf by adding:

pccard_enable="YES"
pccardd_flags=" -i 10"
pccard_mem="DEFAULT"
network_interfaces="ep0 lo0"
pccard_ifconfig="inet 192.168.1.90  netmask 255.255.255.0"
(I only pasted the pccard relevant lines)

... I've swapped NIC's from one machine to another. the 3com 574 works
fine on the other machine, but neither NIC is found here. In the
dmesg, I get a "pccardc /dev/card0: device not configured" error, yet
there are card0-3 in my /dev. I noticed there's not even any pcic0
entries in my dmesg, unlike the machine that it works on.

Also, doing a "pccardc dumpcis" reports "0 slots found". I installed
through the NIC, so I know it's compatible. Anyone have ideas on what
I've missed?

-Otter

It's not.  It was cancelled a few months ago.

I've seen this one myself. The StarOffice installation process is
dearchiving files in /tmp, then attempting to run using those files as
shared libraries. For some (unknown) reason, the dynamic linking fails
on some systems. It's hard to track down beyond that, because the
(*)&&(^% StarOffice installation process cleans up all the files you
need to diagnose it after the failure.

Anyway, the workaround is to make a package on one of the machines
you've got it installed on properly, then install the package. You can
then run ${PREFIX}/office52/program/soffice to do the per-user
installation process.

Use the "kern.ps_showallprocs" sysctl knob.

Run "sysctl -w kern.ps_showallprocs=0" as root.

Put "kern.ps_showallprocs=0" in your /etc/sysctl.conf file to make
your system do this whenever it boots up.

This will hide other users' processes in both 'top' and 'ps'.  The
restrictions do not apply to thel 'root' user though.

Users can still interrogate your "/proc" directory though, so you may
want to unmount that if you're feeling really paranoid.  Just be aware
that some programmes require access to "/proc" to run correctly.

Okay. My /tmp issue was a red herring. Indeed I could not copy tmp
to another filesystem because /tmp contained numerous unix domain
sockets (possibly stale? I don't yet understand sockets) put there
by XFree86.

rm -R /tmp worked fine, however. /tmp now lives elsewhere.

My X problems are apparently related to /tmp, but also to the fact I
made world without specifying NO_X=true. (I was running XFree86-4)
Reinstalling XFree86-4 fixed everything.

My first "make world" has revealed many interesting FreeBSD discoveries.
I'm not sure I have any additional functionality, but I have learned a
*lot* more about FreeBSD.

Thanks, freebsd-questions!

IIRC these work by adding "device ed" to the kernel config file.

I can't find *any* of that in FHS 2.1. By my reading, /usr/local is
reserved "for use by the system administrator when installing software
locally." /opt is for "Add-on application software packages", with no
mention of "essential" at all. Nor do I see anything about needing to
put these things on a separate partition. In fact, the definition of
"essential" implied by section 3.1 is "commands ... which are required
when no other file systems are mounted", which would seem to make /opt
having essential things and being on another disk partition
mutually exclusive propositions. Perhaps you could let me know which
parts led you to those conclusions?

While on the topic, I note that the FreeBSD package system fails to
comply with the FHS by putting packages in /usr/local instead of
/opt.

Well if WINE's numbering scheme goes as I remember it the version in 
the ports is about 2 months older than the one he downloaded. Alot 
changes in each individual release of WINE. However, if he is doing 
something that isn't critical to the newer 20001202 version then he 
should be fine.

For instance take Starcraft if you go to some of the WINE homepages. 
With different versions of WINE different functionality was gained or 
lost depending on which version was run. Especially the networking 
support.

Depends on the goal. Personally, I build ports into /usr/opt, and
install the non-port applications in /usr/local (which is a mounted
file system, not part of /usr, and has a different backup policy).

Another solution is to make a port for them in ~/src/ports. and then
install that. You can also submit the port via send-pr to give back to
the community.

Dear Mike.

Today I found out, that the curoius thing seems to be regarded to
the usage of shells! I prefer the ksh/bash/sh shells and they 
mess up the installation. i have some users using csh on our server

does not have any effect, it seems to be a more tricky thing on
the other accounts.
I can assure the following: using bash turns myself into loosing hairs,
using csh offers me a base installation, but the per-user installation
fails on some accounts, on others it works great.

Hope someone find the mistake in the shellskript and do the trick of bugfixing

	With `tar -x' by itself tar defaults to
	looking at the hard drive rather than the neomail 
	tarball.  Try:

	 # tar -xzvf neomail-1.20.tar.gz

	instead. The -z handles the gzip *.gz un-compression, and
	the -f point tar at the tarball (file).

Alright, since nobody is answering me in the freebsd-scsi list about my
4.2 panic with the AHA-2940, I'll send this here. I have gotten the crash
again, and in addition to that, I have the panic messages, a backtrace and
what I think is happening. I can send whoever needs it my vmcore.0,
kernel.0, and kernel.debug if you want

#18 0xc0204165 in Xint0x80_syscall ()

I looked at what caused the trap and it seems to be in the line

                if (ncp->nc_dvp == dvp && ncp->nc_nlen == cnp->cn_namelen
&&
                    !bcmp(ncp->nc_name, cnp->cn_nameptr, ncp->nc_nlen))
                        break;

I think it is because ncp->nc_name has a value:

(kgdb) print ncp->nc_name
$7 = 0x804ae00 "admindefines"

but cnp->cn_nameptr is a null pointer:

(kgdb) print cnp->cn_nameptr
$8 = 0x0

but the length argument to bcmp is:

(kgdb) print ncp->nc_nlen
$9 = 73 'I'

I don't know where to go from here though, I have absolutely no idea why
cnp->cn_nameptr would be NULL, or how any of this could be caused 
by the SCSI driver, but I know it is the ahc driver's fault
because when I take that driver out of the kernel, everything
works fine again. Anyway, any help is appreciated.

I tried to use mpg123 to play a mp3 file under Gnome window and got the 
error: can't open /dev/dsp.  If I exit X windows, the problem still
exists. But if I never start X, it works fine.  So obviously, this has
to do with Gnome.  How to run mpg123 under Gnome or is there a better
tool I can use?  Thanks.

I've been looking around for scriptable file mover utils to move 
files from FreeBSD +  Win32 production machines to a central backup 
server with a tape drive.   What I've found so far is:

ftpbackup
rsync
scp

any others I should be looking at?

Hi Salvo,

a few weeks ago you wrote me that you recompile X after some problems
with the version under release 4.0. What do you exactly mean by
'recompile'. You don't compile the X server binary, don't you?!

I had been off the last weeks and will now try again to fix it. If you
have an idea what causes this problem I'll appreciate to hear it.

Hi to the rest,

is there anyone out there with helpful hints for the X server setup
after upgrading 3.4 to 4.0. I found nothing at the usual places and
think this problem should have occured not only to me.

Thanks for any help and have a good time.
Holger

You should quote the prvious messages and CC: to the list, that way you will
get more and faster responses, and also there will be a record in the
archives for people with similar problems. (See:
http://www.lemis.com/questions.html )

I would suggest you make another disk, it is not uncommon for disks to get
damaged during shipping, especially considering the 3.5.1 disk would most
likely be a little old, 4.2 is out now.  There should be a utility on the CD
if you have access to another PC which would allow you to make a set of
bootdisks.  Use a new disk of course:) See:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html for directions on making
install floppys, I don't know for sure that these fit with 3.x can anyone

I'm sorry but none of your solutions works.
/bin/false as shells denies any access via ssh (including scp)
~/.login containing logout could be circumvented by starting another =
command (e.g. /bin/sh) via ssh.

Hi, folks -

I'm trying to talk through a serial port, and freebsd's fighting me
every step of the way. (seems that way!)

I've got a microcontroller spitting out 2400 baud characters to ttyd1,
and not all that fast at that. My problem is that the getty process
doesn't seem amenable to control. I tried changing gettytab and ttys,
and I don't seem to have control of things. I can't get echo to stay
off, I can't get it to stay in clocal mode. My C program reading it is
just a simple getc/putc copy function like what's on page 3 of every C
book in sight.

Even poking with stty doesn't seem to affect it, at least not all the
time. Sometimes sending

	stty -f /dev/ttyd1 clocal && ./inputprog </dev/ttyd1 

works, at least after I renice things so that the getty and my program
get all the CPU time, but other times it doesn't work. I'd like to know
why, if someone could tell me.

TIA! I'm not subscribed, so please cc: me.

I really don't know what will happen in web servers that have high
loads, but what you describe seems to remind me of NFS.  I haven't
tested such a setup on high loads, but I would be interested to know
what others have to say.

On a side note, having read the thread so far, I like the Squid
solution for quickly changing, dynamic stuff.  But, even if you have a
setup like:

    Internet -->  Squid --+--> Apache (1) --+--> SQL server
                          |                 |
                          +--> Apache (2) --+
                          :                 :
                          +--> Apache (n) --+

You are going to have a bottleneck not in the time it takes Apache to
load and process a page, but on your SQL server.  But if you use more
than one SQL servers, you are going to need database mirroring too. 
The problem of getting two web servers to respond with the `same' data
seems to be more complicated than plain `rsync' of two directories :/

I would be very interested to know what other people have to say on
this one, though.  Oh, and when this becomes kind of off-topic for
-questions, perhaps we should take it to -chat.

I looked at them for a about year and a half. KDE was the first one
that I was comfortable with.

The thing I have found about installing KDE-2 on 3 or 4 machines was
you had to let the meta port kde2 build everything belonging to kde-2.
I went down the list of build-requires and run-requires and made a
clean add of every one of them before I started my make and make
install in /usr/ports/x11/kde2. KDE-2 is sensitive to what it requires
and the meta port checks to see if qt2 is installed but you may need
qt-2.2.1_2. When you update your ports with a cvsup and then do a
clean installs, KDE-2 works on the first try and runs. I haven't had a
core since Kevlo fixed kde2multimedia2.

Did you try rm -rf /usr/obj/*  You will have to chflag the directory
to completely remove everything.

I can't test build's on 3.x. I gave up on that line a 4.0-release.

Hi.

Has anyone ever coming across the aforementioned problem above?
The HTTP-AUTH services (I don't know if I've termed it correctly) are
the server-side enabled login/password pages, something like Apache's
htaccess/htpasswd password-protected pages. When I try to open the pages
in the browser, I get a blank output on ther server, on and on and on
.....

The particular sites I'm having problems connecting to are actually 2
other servers which are running phpMyAdmin, and am trying to access the 
login pages. I recalled having the same problem accessing some other
sites as well previously. I just can't seem to be to connect from home
(dial-up through tun0 on a FreeBSD4.2 proxy/GATEWAY with IPFILTER/IPNAT
3.3.8, squid2.3). I can confirm that I am able to connect to the 2 exact
servers from elsewhere, so I guess my home setup is messed-up.
Incidentally, bypassing the proxy gets me nowhere, except that 'ipnat
-l' rapidly fills up with lots of outgoing connection.

Every other services seems to be working OK. ICQ, IRC, HTTP, etc. 

Any tips/pointers/guidance on how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

PS:
I've attached a tcpdump output on the gateway's tun0 interface. 
(EXTSERVER1 and EXTSERVER2 are the external servers I was trying to
connec to, while LOCALX is the public interface of my gateway i.e. tun0)

Addditionally,
my ipnat.rules are:

map tun0 192.168.1.0/24 -> 0.0.0.0/32 portmap tcp/udp 20000:30000
map tun0 192.168.1.0/24 -> 0.0.0.0/32

FreeBSD freedom.my.domain 4.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE #2: Tue Dec  5 
18:07:27 CST 2000     goyo@freedom.my.domain:/usr/src/sys/compile/FREEDOM  i386

Using 4.1-R on a rather pitiful old 486, I ran into trouble compiling some 
larger ports and running out of swap space. Have 32M physical RAM, took 
defaults on install and got 36M swap (should've known to increase it off 
the bat, but...).

OK, found the handbook steps for increasing swap using vn driver. Sounds 
sweet & easy, but reviewed some -questions threads and decided I'd be best 
off with genuine swap space as I've been accustomed to.

Created another 36M swap partition with /stand/sysinstall's disk label tool 
using some space I'd reserved as ad0s1h, and marked its availability and 
swap assignment in /etc/fstab. Got recognized and mounted as swap fine at 
boot time and swapinfo showed it being used in equal proportion to the 
primary swap device as desired (yay!). But about an hour later during a 
heavy compile the system booted itself.

Since it had been behaving fine prior to my hacking at the swap config, I 
figured I did something wrong. But looking about, I think I did it right...

Not finding ready step-by-step documentation for the disk label method 
(which I'd done before on 2.x and 3.x machines and thought I'd completed 
satisfactorily here), I decided to comment out the fstab line for the new 
swap partition and try with the handbook instructions despite a performance 
hit warning for this method (I need the swap already, at least until I find 
more compatible SIMMs):

>Make sure your kernel was built with the line
>     pseudo-device   vn 1   #Vnode driver (turns a file into a device)
>in your config-file. The GENERIC kernel already contains this.

I had stripped down GENERIC to a bare minimum and added back what I needed 
(config appended to this message), so had to replace this entry. But, no 
apparent problems making/installing the new kernel.

>create a vn-device
>     # cd /dev
>     # sh MAKEDEV vn0
>create a swapfile (/usr/swap0)
>     # dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swap0 bs=1024k count=64

(in actuality, I used count=96, assuming it fair game to tweak)

>set proper permissions on (/usr/swap0)
>     # chmod 0600 /usr/swap0
>enable the swap file in /etc/rc.conf

OK, no problem.

freedom# ll /usr/swap0
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  98304 Dec  9 10:00 /usr/swap0

However, no matter whether I enable swap0 in rc.conf and boot, or enable it 
manually with vnconfig, I don't seem to get additional swap space. It 
reports as -32 blocks, 100% filled. What'd I break and how do I fix it?

freedom# swapinfo
Device          1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Type
/dev/ad0s1b         37312    34412     2900    92%    Interleaved
/dev/rvn0c            -32      -32        0   100%    Interleaved
Total               37280    34380     2900    92%

TIA for any advice/pointers. As you can see, compiles readily consume my 
usable swap, no RAM is on hand, and I'd like to resolve this ASAP.

Expecting maybe I slashed my kernel config too much and that you'll ask for 
it, here:

There is a getty listening on the same port as your program?  You've set
your self up for a race condition.  You need to turn off the getty.
Then send init a hup.

Hello!

I've a little technical problem and I would ask you for help :-)

Situation: FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE (cvsupped few days ago) on a Microstar MS-6321 dual socket 370 motherboard.
The CPUs are two Celeron 433 Mhz and the motherboard chipset is VIA VT82C694X (Apollo Pro 133A) with also a Promise ATA 100 dual channel controller (not used).
I attached to this email my "dmesg" output.

I noted that the USB subsystem get really crazy when running a SMP kernel.

I've a Logitech Pilot Wheel Mouse USB that I used really fine on another 4.2-stable box, but on this one it is not usable.

As you'll see from dmesg output, the USB controllers are correctly found, but seems not to work.

But if I boot using a single CPU kernel then USB works fine.


What could be ? Is this a known problem ?


Here I include also the "usbdevs" output captured under SMP kernel:

libero:(root)/root# usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 0x0100
 port 1 powered
 port 2 powered
Controller /dev/usb1:
addr 1: self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 0x0100
 port 1 powered
 port 2 powered

I guess that 0x0000 are not correct values for that parameters.. ;-)


Please, could someone help me ? What I should do, besides disabling SMP ? ;-)

Thanks a lot anyway!


NOTE: please CC: the answer to me directly too, since I'm not yet subscribed to these lists! Thanks!

Hello,

I have the following kernel messages:
Dec  9 15:16:33 inca /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): WRITE(10). CDB: 2a 0 2 21 67 e9

Dec  9 15:16:33 inca /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): Logical unit communication time-

In short, should I be concerned about this? If so- steps to identify/resolve 
problem?
Please copy me @ chris@sitemajic.net as I am no longer subscribed to questions 
and I right now can't review messages at freebsd.org. hmm.

It is a 4.1 -STABLE system. The first time didn't bother me- this the 2nd and 
3rd event.

	I have a machine (4.2-STABLE, December 1) with lots of free RAM and a
loadaverage of zero. It's maintaining a few thousand connections, and
network performance has dropped to basically zero. A 'netstat -m' shows:

1739/18432/18432 mbufs in use (current/peak/max):
        323 mbufs allocated to data
        1416 mbufs allocated to packet headers
311/4608/4608 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
13824 Kbytes allocated to network (100% of mb_map in use)
2414666 requests for memory denied
293 requests for memory delayed
1062 calls to protocol drain routines

	So I've hit the mbuf limit and the mbuf cluser limit at some point in the
past. But nothing appears to be the problem now. The counts for memory
requests denied or delayed are not increasing. For example, here's another
'netstat -m':

1860/18432/18432 mbufs in use (current/peak/max):
        421 mbufs allocated to data
        1439 mbufs allocated to packet headers
384/4608/4608 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
13824 Kbytes allocated to network (100% of mb_map in use)
2414666 requests for memory denied
293 requests for memory delayed
1062 calls to protocol drain routines

	Any suggestions? Network performance is near-zero now.

	DS

	Nope, no errors. I'll add those two to the kernel config. I also noticed a

tar(1) defaults to looking at the _tape_ drive, /dev/rsa0.

Hi all,

I provide NAT for my 3 roommates for an ADSL connection.=20
My roommate was trying to look something up on..
http://voh.chem.ucla.edu
And it wasn't coming through on 80, wouldn't reply to ping,=20
etc.  I told him the server might be down cause EVERY other=20
website was coming through.  He told me he was pretty sure=20
it was up and fine.  I talked to a few more of my friends, and=20
sure enough it's just not coming through for US.  I can get it
just fine using lynx on the firewall box itself.

Does this sound like something obvious, or.. do you need
more details?  I'm just running :
ppp -quiet -background -nat pppoe

Thanks for your help!!!

James Turner

How about the 'command=' option in the authorized_keys file? See
sshd(1).

Sure it can. Is there a start-up script for it in /usr/local/etc/rc.d?
That would start it at boot.

But you implied had a freeze and not crash?

The real issue is, that I would like to construct some more advanced NAT filtering. I.e. I would like to address a lot of port requests to be forwarded to various IP's inside of the FreeBSD box. I know there's the -redirect_port command for natd, but it doesn't seem too flexible since I presume after hitting 256 chars, I'll be unable to supply natd with any more rules...

Well, the command line limit is a lot greater than 256 characters, but
before you got to that point I would recommend using a configuration
file for natd. See the -f option of natd(8).

But there could still be reasons one would want to use IPFilter,
so...

> So, I read that there's also ipf and ipnat, which might be the more advanced and configurable path to go. Hence this is what I would like to set up/install. It looks to me, as if all the binaries are there (ipf, ipstat, ipnat, etc.), but what I get when running the various programs is this:

Do you have a /dev/ipnat? Probably not, which would explain the
error.

Let's find out how to make ipnat together,

  % more /dev/MAKEDEV
  .
  .
  # Special purpose devices:
  .
  .
  .
  #       ipl     ipfilter control devices (ipl, ipnat, ipstate, ipauth)

So, all you need to do is,

  # cd /dev
  # ./MAKEDEV ipl

Well, ipfw is all go, but you wanted to use IPFilter?

That's all ipfw stuff.

That's all you need if you will just use IPFilter.

I'd just like to make a brief apology for my previous post...  I was 
on my roommate's computer, and I tried to force outlook to send plain

I'm trying to set up a raid on my machine.  I've used the DOS utilities
to create a mirror'd pack, and initialize it.  I can partition & disklabel
it, but can't create a filesystem.  Can anyone point out where I've screwed
things up?  Things to look for? Thanks!

Rob

Here's what I've done:

The mlx driver sees the drive and I can get the config info via mlxcontrol:

  # mlxcontrol config mlx0
  # Controller <INSERT DETAILS HERE>
  #
  # Physical devices connected:
  # disk0001  (online)
  #    'WDIGTL  ' 'WDE18300 ULTRA2 ' '1.30' 17461MB  fast wide sync

  # disk0002  (online)
  #    'WDIGTL  ' 'WDE18300 ULTRA2 ' '1.30' 17461MB  fast wide sync
tag-enabled
  # disk0003  (standby)
  #    'QUANTUM ' 'QM318000TD-SW   ' 'N491' 17366MB  fast wide sync
tag-enabled

  # System Drives defined:
  drive00 RAID1 writeback
    span0 0x00000000-0x0221a800 17461MB on disk0001 disk0002

I've created the slice and labelled it:

  # disklabel -r /dev/mlxd0
  # /dev/mlxd0c:
  type: SCSI
  disk: mlxd0s1
  label:
  flags:
  bytes/sector: 512
  sectors/track: 32
  tracks/cylinder: 128
  sectors/cylinder: 4096
  cylinders: 8729
  sectors/unit: 35758048
  rpm: 7200
  interleave: 1
  trackskew: 0
  cylinderskew: 0
  headswitch: 0           # milliseconds
  track-to-track seek: 0  # milliseconds
  drivedata: 0

  8 partitions:
  #        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
    c: 35758048        0    unused        0     0         # (Cyl.    0 -
8729*)
    e:   819200       32    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16   # (Cyl.    0*-
200)

But, when I try to newfs it, I get the following to the screen:

  # newfs /dev/mlxd0s1e
  /dev/mlxd0s1e:  819200 sectors in 200 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors
          400.0MB in 13 cyl groups (16 c/g, 32.00MB/g, 7680 i/g)
  super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at:
  write error: 80
  newfs: wtfs - writecombine: Input/output error

and the following to the console & log:

  /kernel: mlxd0s1: type 0xa5, start 32, end = 35758079, size 35758048 : OK
  /kernel: bus_dmamap_load: Too many segs! buf_len = 0x5a0
  /kernel: mlx0: I/O error - attempt to write beyond end of drive

a dummy newfs (newfs -N) produces what I'd expect:

  # newfs -N /dev/mlxd0s1e
  /dev/mlxd0s1e:  819200 sectors in 200 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors
          400.0MB in 13 cyl groups (16 c/g, 32.00MB/g, 7680 i/g)

589856,
   655392, 720928, 786464

BTW, a verbose boot gets the following info from the mlx driver:

I've already got a stripped binary of 20001026 running
on my system.  I found the location from the Wine
binary downloads page:

http://panter.soci.aau.dk/~dailywine/freebsd/stripped/00/

After reading the apps database and the wine newsgroup
I've been told I should be able to run the windows
terminal server client (16 bit) using wine. 
Unfortunately I get an unhandled page fault or
exception and it crashes out. The newsgroups indicated
that this worked on older versions of wine.  I'm
hoping that 20001026 will fix this specific problem.
I'm using FreeBSD 4.2 and I've downloaded the package
for 20001026 from the FreeBSD ports repository.  This
doesn't install properly.  Is there likely to be a
port fo the new version anytime soon?

Thanks.

Greetings, all!
Could anyone point me to a utility such as GetRight (from a silly foreign OS)
which will resume a stalled download ?  I have twice attenpted a 16M download
and got to 94% on the second occasion before the line dropped out and I lost
the lot.  :-(

Also, I now receive 300+ emails daily, and would like to have them
automatically sorted by source (eg all LinuxSA in the LinuxSA inbox, all
FreeBSD-questions in a FreeBSD-questions inbox and so on).  I am using kmail at
the moment.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

TIA

  $ man ftp
  .

  .
       reget remote-file [local-file]
                 Reget acts like get, except that if local-file exists and is
                 smaller than remote-file, local-file is presumed to be a par-
                 tially transferred copy of remote-file and the transfer is
                 continued from the apparent point of failure.  This command
                 is useful when transferring very large files over networks
                 that are prone to dropping connections.

I'm interested in downloading and installing FreeBSD. I'm a newbie to
UNIX and linux OSs and I would like to know if FreeBSD can be installed
on the same partition as win9x. Also the program which i read on the web
site "FIPS" if it works under win9x (only DOS was mentioned) and fat32
to repartition drives without losing data.

Thanks

How?  If their ~/.login contains 'logout', and they don't have access to
overwrite it, they can't execute anything else.  Maybe I'm missing
something, show me how you are doing this.

On bubbles,

Or to be a little more slick,

  $ ssh bubbles "tcsh -f"

Would give me an interactive shell.

Oops.

The standard command-line ftp client supports this:  Use the "reget"
command instead of "get" to resume an aborted download;  It'll pick
up from whereever the file on your disk leaves off.

Hi there,

I've just recently did a make installworld for 4.2. Would it be safe to say
that any files left over from the previous installation (ie, older creation
timestamps) can be deleted without affecting the core system? Thanks.

- Khairuddin.
