I have some questions about primary and secondary nameserver. It's like this: i have my box in network 194.x.207.* (i won't tell direct ip - don't know why, i just won't :-). I want to have my ns set up. My ISP told me that i must set primary ns and that they will set secondary ns. At this point i would like to ask if i had configured my named.conf correctly: First there is zone "." { type hint; file "named.root"; }; I don't know what that means, but lets say that's ok. BTW: what's that "." for ? That, there is localhost zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" { type master; file "localhost.rev"; }; .. this probably isn't right (i think so). I should remove "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" and replace it with "207.x.194.IN-ADDR.ARPA" right ? OK, after that there is zone "domain.com" { type slave; file "s/domain.com.bak"; masters { 192.168.1.1; }; }; .. (this is copyed from default named.conf). So, if i want my primary ns to be 10.0.0.1 (i made up this ip :-) i should edit that text to.. zone "mydomain.com" { type master; ..than what ?.. should it be just like localhost or what ? If i am picturing this correctly, for primary ns there should be just a line for domain name, another line for type and another one for file where every pointer, "A", "MX" is ? And for secondary ns there should be one line for domain, one for type, one for file and another one for IP of the primary ns ?? Of course IN-ADDR.ARPA is included.. OK, than there is another thing.. in config file for my primary ns i typed: mydomain.com. IN SOA ns.mydomain.com ..and.. mydomain.com. IN NS ns.mydomain.com. mydomain.com. IN NS ns.myispdomain.com. ..is this right ?? I want to have primary ns, but my ISP will have secondary.. so is this configured right ? And for later on.. i should define the ip of myispdomain.com right ? Like.. ns.myispdomain.com IN A 193.x.x.66 .. is this OK too ?? And should there be another file for localhost ns ? OK that would be all. Thanks to all of you who will help me.. I really don't know how to set up this things.. Thanks for all the help again. Bye. Martin P.S.: sorry about my english - it's very bad.

I tend to question the purchase of yet another $75 (in OZ) book when all I require is a paragraph or two out of it. At at least this particular book appears to contain information on the majority of the countless minor but critical steps essential to the DNS / BIND saga, which is more than can be said for most of the other documentation on the subject !!. As is typical of most everything with unix, the stuff is unbelievably simple ... its just the terse documentation that makes unfamiliar issues so incomprehensible to those of us unfortunate enough to not be an expert. There is another extremely simple and almost totally non-technical alternative which provides both secondary DNS without the requirement of ISP approval .... providing of course one owns the rights to a "full" domain ie something like "http://www.blah.com". This is to use the services of one of the free DNS services such as granitecanyon.com or centralinfo.net. It appears that granitecanyon.com has struck some sort of problem in recent months as updates take forever & there's no means of communications with the providers .... even most of the relevant newsgroups are either down or the moderators block postings with a reference to granitecanyon, however centralinfo.net certainly looks to be very efficient & even newbie-friendly. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Len Conrad" To: "Martin" Cc: Sent: Monday, May 08, 2000 4:02 AM Subject: Re: primary and secondary nameserver > > >I don't know what that means, but lets say that's ok.

Did you know that you have 3 votes? (unethical? Hey I don't make the rules) Now for some statistics: Since my first message about 3 weeks ago, nearly 400 votes have been recorded for the Java on FreeBSD Request for Enhancement (RFE), an increase of 13.4%! Our RFE now has 4 times as many votes as the #2 RFE, and as many votes as the next 8. The more votes that we can get, the more powerful is the *BSD message to Sun. FYI: IBM has announced an "early release" of JDK 1.3 on Linux. Several *BSD friendly folks have started requesting a port of the IBM JDK in the discussion forum at: * http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/aw.nsf/discussion?ReadForm&/forum/linuxjdk.nsf/discussion?createdocument (Look for "FreeBSD support" in the Linux-JDK-1.3.0 discussion list.) This will be my last "get out the vote" message for a while, as I think that I have reached most people who care to vote. Lastly, I would like to thank the FreeBSD Java porting team once again for their outstanding efforts. I, myself, am not a part of the java porting team, just a user who would like to use a native port and support the *BSD platform. John PS Please forward this message to any person, list, or organization that may want to support this effort. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Tue May 9 4:56: 3 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mail1.gmx.net (mail.gmx.net [194.221.183.61]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id AF14237B8F8 for ; Tue, 9 May 2000 04:55:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from M.Lammering@gmx.de) Received: (qmail 957 invoked by uid 0); 9 May 2000 11:55:57 -0000 Received: from p3ee0f271.dip0.t-ipconnect.de (HELO bigtower) (62.224.242.113) by mail.gmx.net with SMTP; 9 May 2000 11:55:57 -0000 Message-ID: <200005091353010100.00363EB9@mail.gmx.net> X-Mailer: Calypso Version 3.00.03.02 (3) Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 13:53:01 +0200 From: "Marcus Lammering" To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="=====_95787318118467=_" Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org --=====_95787318118467=_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" --=====_95787318118467=_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1" --=====_95787318118467=_-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Tue May 9 4:56:57 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from dns.proventum.net (dns.proventum.dk [194.19.64.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 64C7E37BE1A for ; Tue, 9 May 2000 04:56:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jvm@gopinocchio.com) Received: from padjacob (firewall2.proventum.dk [194.19.131.12]) by dns.proventum.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id NAA24708 for ; Tue, 9 May 2000 13:50:25 +0200 (MDT) Message-ID: <007301bfb9ad$c4686540$cc8313c0@proventum.net> From: "Jacob Vennervald Madsen" To: Subject: Keyboard maps Date: Tue, 9 May 2000 13:57:31 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0070_01BFB9BE.852C21D0" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2919.6600 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6600 Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0070_01BFB9BE.852C21D0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi I've just installed FreeBSD and I can't get my keyboard working with = special danish characters like =E6=F8=E5.

The error I keep getting seems to be regarding the id's paths - I get rsync: command not found errors (it's in /usr/local/bin) but when I look at the crontab error email there are a bunch of X-Cron-Env settings that don't match the ids ENV setting (see below - especially PATH=) Does anyone know how I modify the X-Cron-Env? Or even what/why it is? I changed the command to /usr/local/bin/rsync but then I get the same error for ssh (also in /usr/local/bin).

How strange. It sounds like somehow your X config file got something else inserted into it from somewhere. As far as I know, there's no "anti-spam" section in XF86Config. It doesn't even make sense to have such a thing there.

Something _did_ write to the XF86Config file. What, there is yet nary a clue. Have been running lsof in timed monitoring mode and thus far--nada. Simply copied a backup file to /etc/XF86Config and started over. Major error: Did not _keep_ that mucked up file in order to search for clues. Thanks, Conrad.

Hi

I need to know if there is special configuration required to support= dual processors in FreeBSD. I'm installing 4.0-Release according to the install|options screens. The box has an Intel PR440FX mainboard with dual pentium pro 180Mhz processors. Linux requires a kernal rebuild to turn on support.

Also, if someone can advise me, I have another minor question. I've= noticed the FreeBSD KDE is not nearly as graphically clear and refined as the KDE on Linux-Mandrake 7.0. By this, I mean that the graphics are blockier, grainer and just look unprofessional. Is this something that I did wrong in my setup, or what?

Thanks for your help...

A: SMP is supported in 3.0-STABLE and later releases only. As for your KDE display, it sounds like you are running in 256-color (8bpp) resolution. Run XF86Setup and try to increase your colors to 16 or 24 bpp (64k or 16M colors). This is assuming your video card can handle that much color. - M - On Wed, 10 May 2000, Steven D.

You need to look in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf copy GENERIC to a new name and edit this text file which need to show the SMP configuration. Look at the FreeBSD handbook which gives reasonably straightforward instructions on the process. I'm no expert, also coming from linux. The FreeBSD environment takes getting used to, but I've got to the stage where I can do the make world and use cvsup to update the sources. Interesting experience.

You do need to read the relevant parts of the handbook / Complete FreeBSD / mailing list archives / links on the subject at freebsd.org , but thats all I had to do to get SMP running.

Example: gunzip apache_1.3.11 .. tar xvf apache_1.3.11 (/home/martin/apache_1.3.11).. ./configure --prefix=/bla/bla .. make.. make install .. now i can delete /home/martin/apache_1.3.11 ??? since the apache is installed in /bla/bla.

Typically, if you compiled this yourself from sources (and is not a port), then typing "make uninstall" in the build directory does the trick. If it's from a port, type "make deinstall" in the build directory instead.

Assuming, of course, that the Makefile is configured exactly as it was when the package was installed. If you used any custom settings when building/installing the package, and have since then done a "make clean" or "make distclean" or whatever, you'll have to re-run configure with exactly the same options as you did before. This is why it's much easier to use the ports collection, if possible. > If it's from a port, type "make deinstall" in the build directory > instead.

Unfortunately, no, I don't hink it will work with the native Netscape. You can, however, install something like XSwallow, and configure it to use RealPlayer for any embedded data. > I am not shure if this plugin is needed anyway, what it is good for, if > I couldnt run realplayer with some tweeking of the netscape preferences. I very seldom run across any "Real" data embedded in web pages (which would require a plugin). Incidentally, after installing the latest RealPlayer, I realized that my instructions to use "brandelf" on the executables was unnecessary. Works just fine as is. I've submitted a port of XSwallow to the ports collection, by the way, but it hasn't been committed yet. If you'd like, I can send you the package.

IBM will ship a new drive when they receive this one, so I've installed 3.2 on a Western Digital IDE drive and now the aim is to get the /usr/home files from SCSI to IDE--critical stuff is backed up but it would be nice to have it all. On the respective drives I've executed, as root and in the /dev directory: ./MAKEDEV wd* and da* respectively after reading the /dev/MAKEDEV file, and both return: bad unit for disk in wd0a through wd0h and da0a through da0h respectively. I've tried mounting all the possibilities and get: unknown sppecial file or file system Any clues out there? In the process of reading through The Complete FreeBSD for help, nothing yet.

Pulled the very cute trick of telling the system to mount the devices exactly nowhere. For anyone in the situation of wanting to copy data between SCSI and IDE drives on the same machine, the devices are as shown by df absent the trailing letter, i.e., da0s1e is /dev/da0s1. Noted that ./MAKEDEV da* does not fly, at least not today on this 3.2 box, had to make them individually, same with ./MAKEDEV vty* Hope nobody spent a lot of time answering the previous lackathoughtdisease post.

Does anyone have good ideas for doing mail in my current situation. I get all my school mail to the school unix machines, and with Windows, i used Eudora to use pop3 to get mail. I am looking for a GUI interfaced mail program that can use pop3, leaves the mail on the server, and delete mail from the server when it is few days old. I like being able to check mail by loggin onto the school unix server; I can't connect to my machine remotely because I am sharing an IP address. I have tried several programs, but so far K-mail works well except that it either downloads only the messages I haven't read or it downloads the same messages again and again and fills up my mailbox with tons of duplicate messages. Do people have suggestions? I am thinking that I would use fetchmail to use pop3 to get mail and then forward it to my local mail daemons so that it is forwarded to my local inbox. So far I haven't figured out either part. I appreciate any help!

The ~/.fetchmailrc file that I am using to fetch my mail from the campus machine called campus.host.name.gr for myself looks like: poll campus.host.name.gr proto pop3: user "myname", pass "******", is "localuser" here, fetchall, nokeep; Then, my local sendmail takes care of mail send to localuser@localhost and all works fine :) For more fetchmailrc options, see the manpage of fetchmail(1) where all the options of fetchmail are decribed in detail. Put this into a file called .fetchmailrc in your HOME directory, and edit appropriately. Then call fetchmail when you're connected to the net, as shown in: % fetchmail and watch it fetch your mail. If you want to test the ~/.fetchmailrc file, without actually fetching the mail (debugging your fetchmailrc is a good reason for doing such a thing): % fetchmail -c Ciao, Giorgos.

It is also available at http://www.welearn.com.au/freebsd/newbies/) FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG is the place to send all questions about installing, configuring, running and using FreeBSD. All help requests are handled by FreeBSD-Questions, including newbies questions. FreeBSD-Newbies is different. We don't ask for help or answer how-to questions. It is a discussion forum for newbies. FreeBSD-Newbies provides a place for new FreeBSD users to meet and covers any of the activities of newbies that are not already dealt with elsewhere. Examples include helping each other to learn more on our own, finding and using resources, problem solving techniques, how to seek help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use, general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories, moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who are doing the same things that we do as newbies. One of the things we do together is learn more effective ways to find help when we need it. Here are some suggestions: When something doesn't work the way you expect 1. First look at the errata for your release of FreeBSD at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/releases/ for the latest information and security advisories. 2. Search the Handbook, FAQ, and mail archives at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/search.html 3. If you still have a question or problem, collect the output of `uname -a' and of any relevant program(s) and email your question to FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. Mailing lists When you have a problem that you can't solve by yourself, there's only one support mailing list and that's FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. FreeBSD-questions helps with installation and basic setup as well as more general and advanced questions. You don't have to actually join freebsd-questions before asking a question there. Replies to your question will normally be sent to you personally as well as to the list. Just make sure you have read and followed the guidelines for posting, because you might find them different to what you're used to. If you do subscribe to freebsd-questions you'll have the advantage of seeing all of the recent questions and their answers. Before you post to FreeBSD-questions, please read the guidelines at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html Many of the people who answer FreeBSD-questions are very knowledgeable, but they get frustrated when they get questions which are difficult to understand. http://www.lemis.com/email.html is worth reading too. If you're not sure that you can follow these guidelines, come back and ask the other newbies for help on how to post an effective question to the support mailing list. Maybe your question has been asked before. If you search the mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html first you might get the answer right away. It's always worth trying. Other mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-CHARTERS) cover specialised areas and many are more developer-oriented. You'll need to read their charters carefully before participating, but it's probably a good idea to ask on either -newbies or -questions for advice about where to post a more specialised question. FreeBSD-announce is a very low volume read-only list for occasional announcements, such as notice of new releases, and the Really Quick Newsletter. It's worth subscribing to FreeBSD-announce too. Manuals You'll always be expected to show that you have made some effort to use the available documentation before asking for help. That's not always as easy as it sounds! If you know what documentation you need but can't locate it, send a brief query to FreeBSD-questions. If you don't know what you need, always have trouble finding it, or can't make any sense of it when you do, ask some patient newbies to steer you in the right direction. Anyone interested in writing or reviewing documentation for FreeBSD is encouraged to join the FreeBSD Documentation Project. Details are at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html Other resources A resource list is available at http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html to help new and inexperienced FreeBSD users to find relevant information quickly. It includes books, on line documents and tutorials, and links to web pages that other newbies have found useful for learning. If you have a suggestion for good material to be included, please write to freebsd-newbies and tell us about it. But I have seen people asking questions here! It is quite common for people to send the wrong kind of post to a mailing list. Because we're newbies it'll certainly happen here from time to time. The best thing to do if you see a message that doesn't belong on a list is to ignore it. There's always someone around whose job it is to sort these problems out privately. The posts to the lists go straight through, whatever their content. It is going to be confusing for a little while because we're all newbies so we all make mistakes. That's OK. One thing we're going to see a fair bit is people posting questions, believing they're doing the right thing by posting here as newbies, not realising how it works. If someone answers those questions the situation will snowball. There's nothing wrong with helping someone to redirect their question to freebsd-questions, but please do so gently. There's nothing wrong with the occasional mistake either. So all questions, requests for help, etc still go to freebsd-questions as usual. Ours is more of a discussion group, a place where newbies can relax with other newbies and focus more on our successes than on our temporary imperfection. We can talk about things here that are not allowed on freebsd-questions. We're also a bit freer to make the mistakes that we need to make in order to learn. _________________________________________________________________ To Subscribe to FreeBSD-Newbies: Send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "subscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message.
