But this evening, I'm getting tons of lines in my 'messages' file after I start running my transfer stats for the evening that state: May 23 01:31:49 www /kernel: pid 3328 (perl), uid 65534: exited on signal 11 There is about one every one-three seconds with a new pid #. As soon as I terminate the stats program from processing the server logs, everything returns to normal. Nothing on the system, including the software has changed, so I'm not sure what could be causing this. In logs from Apache it writes 'premature end of script headers' when I know these scripts actually do work. And a '500 internal server' error is produced when trying to run a script. Webpages continue to load normally. The system also started displaying the following error and freezing up, or rebooting every 12-24 hours: Current process = 43350 (httpd) interrupt mask = net tty trap number = 12 panic: page fault But, none of this started until after I upgraded my system. Do I possibly need to rebuild my kernal, upgrade my bios? Any ideas??? I have PC-100 memory (1 gig), and my motherboard detects my CPU displaying the correct speed on screen upon bootup. But, I never changed any jumpers...

I have a Symbios 53c8751SPE in it. Aften soon as the message "waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle" comes up, I get an endless stream of error messages about it doing scsi bus resets. I noticed that this was reported before on freebsd-questions, but I don't see any replies. Is anyone trying to fix this? Has a fix already been checked in? If so, would there be any later snapshots that I could install?

I installed FreeBSD 4.0 and am going to configure PPPoE and NAT. I followed the instructions found in FreeBSD.org web site and man pages and easily get PPPoE work. However, NAT don't work and its behavior is strange. My environment is one FreeBSD running as gateway, connecting my LAN and ISP using PPPoE and there is a Macintosh running Darwin in the LAN for my testing purpose. Either I don't enable NAT in rc.conf, or set ppp_nat="YES" , the behaviors are the same: In Macintosh, when I telnet to outside world, I can see the login screen and login prompt. Once I key in the user name and password, there is nothing to show on screen and eventually the telnet timeout and disconnected. Similarly in ftp: I can login ftp server but get no response after playing a very short while. ftp> user anonymous 123@123 ftp> dir (show something) ftp> cd pub (OK.) ftp> dir (no response! I tested for about 4-5 sites. All are "die" in dir the /pub directory.) I suspect two possibilities: 1. only the first packet (mtu or mur?) are transmitted successful but the subsequent packets are failed. 2. Something wrong in telnet and ftp packet translation. However, I have no clue on how to proceed futher. The /var/log/alias.log shows nothing helpful.

With occasional movement on the > drive. With "occasional movement on the drive"? Please provide more details. The tape drive should be running mostly continuously. If it start-stops all the time, you have a problem. Is your network connection even fast enough? You mentioned you had a DLT4000. This has a rather fearsome throughput, you'll need a well-going 100Mbit/s network to accommodate it. If your network throughput throttles back the drive, it will have to stop, wait, rewind to pick up where it left off, and start up again. This greatly increases wear, noise, and can badly drop the *average* throughput. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 28 5:20:13 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.inka.de (quechua.inka.de [212.227.14.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5231A37B6F3 for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 05:20:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from daemon@mips.inka.de) Received: from bigeye.mips.inka.de (uucp@) by mail.inka.de with local-bsmtp id 12w232-000377-02; Sun, 28 May 2000 14:20:04 +0200 Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.mips.inka.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id NAA02988 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 28 May 2000 13:30:02 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.inka.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: restore time Date: 28 May 2000 13:30:01 +0200 Message-ID: <8gqvvp$2t3$1@bigeye.mips.inka.de> References: To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG wrote: > Well I'd say on average it takes a good 1 1/2 hours to pull off a file at > any given time. 1:30h for a file from an 1.8G archive on a DLT4000 is too much.

This is evaluated only once when PS1 is set, so it will not keep your current working directory in your prompt. For that you'll need something along the lines of this: PROMPT=$(whoami)@$(hostname -s) cd() { command cd "$@" case ${PWD} in "${HOME}"*) PS1="${PROMPT}[~${PWD#${HOME}}] " ;; *) PS1="${PROMPT}[${PWD}] " ;; esac } > case `id -u` in > 0) PS1="${PS1}# ";; > *) PS1="${PS1}$ ";; > esac > > I want to introduce a ^J or \n in the "case" so that my prompt PS1="${PS1} \$ " However, this will screw up. sh assumes that all the characters in PS1 print as one character on the same line. Putting a newline (or terminal control sequences) there will confuse the command line editor about the length of the line, and you will get strange effects when entering and editing long lines. Basically, what you are trying to do is beyond the capabilities of sh. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 28 5:34:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nemesis.worldnet.net (nemesis.worldnet.net [195.3.3.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A52AD37B6AC for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 05:34:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pcasidy@worldnet.fr) Received: from m1.worldnet.net (m1.worldnet.net [195.3.3.5]) by nemesis.worldnet.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA56886 for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 14:35:12 +0200 (CEST) Received: from greatoak.home (p14-039.province.worldnet.fr [195.3.14.39]) by m1.worldnet.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA03665 for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 14:34:27 +0200 (CEST) Received: (from pcasidy@localhost) by greatoak.home (8.9.3/8.9.3) id OAA00359 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 28 May 2000 14:33:39 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from pcasidy) Message-Id: <200005281233.OAA00359@greatoak.home> Date: Sun, 28 May 2000 14:33:39 +0200 (CEST) From: Philippe CASIDY Subject: FreeBSD 4.0 RELEASE and xdm (additional infos) To: FreeBSD Questions In-Reply-To: <20000527115956.M233@parish> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello!

If the FreeBSD system seems to work OK, but the Mac hangs up on outside connections, try adjusting the MTU to 1492 on the Mac. I guarantee that the current settings have MTU set to 1500.

Well, you had to do a bit more than this do to the lack of an install-tools target during the world process.

To boot the installation I used bootdisks made from images from ftp.tekram.com/scsi (kern.flp and mfsroot.flp as usual). At the end of the installation I had to substitute /kernel with a kernel also taken from the tekram ftp site. I then booted the new system and tried to patch and rebuild the kernel as it is said in the tekram readme. But whenever I try to do something that uses a bit of cpu resources (such as ps, top, or gcc), the system hangs. I suppose there is something wrong with this tekram kernel. Has anyone else had this experience? What I'll try next is to compile the kernel on a different machine (my one and only freebsd machine, a production system, pheew :) I hope this will work.

I'm currently doing a buildworld on a 'AMD Enhanced Am486DX4 Write-Through' CPU (reported by BIOS as 120MHz 486) with 16MB RAM, with a very slow and small hard disk (/usr/src and /usr/obj are NFS mounted over 10Mb Ethernet, so the hard disk is probably used mostly for swapping). I can't remember what time I started it but kern.boottime is Sat May 27 18:03:41 2000, so it can't have been earlier than that. It's now Sun 28 May 2000 14:13:21 BST, and it's nearly finished, so I'm guessing it will take less than 24 hours even on this hardware. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 28 7:38:31 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from po3.glue.umd.edu (po3.glue.umd.edu [128.8.10.123]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5AFA537B995 for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 07:38:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from howardjp@glue.umd.edu) Received: from z.glue.umd.edu (root@z.glue.umd.edu [128.8.10.71]) by po3.glue.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id KAA12534; Sun, 28 May 2000 10:38:19 -0400 (EDT) Received: from z.glue.umd.edu (sendmail@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by z.glue.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id KAA04201; Sun, 28 May 2000 10:38:19 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost (howardjp@localhost) by z.glue.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id KAA04197; Sun, 28 May 2000 10:38:19 -0400 (EDT) X-Authentication-Warning: z.glue.umd.edu: howardjp owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 28 May 2000 10:38:18 -0400 (EDT) From: James Howard To: Gregory Davis Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: trademark In-Reply-To: <004001bfc81e$f2a5f600$5ef018d1@rover.apple.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, 27 May 2000, Gregory Davis wrote: > I was surprised to see the FreeBSD mark being used out of context at: > > http://www6.tomshardware.com/blurb/00q2/000525/index.html It turns up in a lot of places.

That is really not a good way to set up a home network. You are going to leak all of your local traffic out to the cable LAN.

First thing, disable (comment out) any services, like the ones you mention, from inetd.conf. Then send inetd a SIGHUP to re-read the file. Use hosts.allow for restricitng services to certain hosts, but if you are not using a service at all, best to turn it off completely. As for firewalls, setting up the machine to do firewalling is quite easy... figuring out how to make a useful ruleset is non-trivial. -- Crist J.

Well, nothing coming back in would be handled correctly. Say you try to start a connection out from one of your private networks. I believe the packet gets aliases properly leaving, but when a reply comes back, it has a source of the remote machine you are trying to connect with and the destination of the NAT box, it is never going to trigger either of those divert rules. Another problem, I believe 'via ${firstreal}' and 'via ${secondreal}' actually mean the same thing in your case. From ipfw(8), via ipno Packet must be going through the interface having IP address ipno. And for both of these IP addresses we are in ed1. Hmmm... How to get this to work... How about, ${fwcmd} add 10 divert 8668 all from any to ${firstreal} recv ed1 ${fwcmd} add 20 divert 8669 all from any to ${secondreal} recv ed1 ${fwcmd} add 30 divert 8668 all from 10.0.0.0/24 to any xmit ed1 ${fwcmd} add 40 divert 8669 all from 10.0.1.0/24 to any xmit ed1 No promises. That's off the top of my head, but I think it at least shows what I think you need to do. You need to pass the incoming packets to the proper natd process by checking their destination IP. Outgoing packets need to be checked by their source address. Use recv and xmit to tell the difference between incoming and outgoing. -- Crist J.

NAT is solely address translation, no "re-frame" :) BTW, how to change MTU in windows machines as I also have NT box in the LAN. -- Victor Tsang victor.tsang@ieee.org FreeBSD + AfterStep To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 28 10:28: 5 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imsp073.netvigator.com (imsp073.netvigator.com [205.252.144.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0F5D737B6E7 for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 10:28:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from victor.tsang@ieee.org) Received: from ieee.org (bbig034067.netvigator.com [203.198.113.67]) by imsp073.netvigator.com (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id BAA09322; Mon, 29 May 2000 01:27:46 +0800 (HKT) Message-ID: <393159A7.29F373C8@ieee.org> Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 01:38:47 +0800 From: Victor Tsang X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Jahanur R Subedar Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: PPPoE and nat References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I know ppp -nat (ppp -alias) and that's what I used to establish PPPoE. I'm not using natd. As I configured it to start upon boot up, I enable it in rc.conf by setting ppp_nat="YES" as mentioned in my previous message. A fellow in this list reminded me about the MTU size... and I will try it later. However, I'd experienced something strange regarding nat which let me think the mtu is not the sole issue. I telnet to a BBS using the testing Mac machine and the bbs supports 2 kinds of languages: traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. When I login as a traditional Chinese user, after I key in the password, there is nothing to show me and the telnet eventually timeout. However, if I login as a simplified Chinese user, the telnet session works fine and I can read and write messages in the bbs for an hour without any problem. Maybe the pppoe nat works from time to time, and it happens to work when I telnet as a simplified Chinese user.

In sum, it seems that everything is OK, and the upgrade to -STABLE was successful. Hurrah! That's good news, but in my newbie ignorance, I was thinking that the kernel may need some of the /etc, /dev, or /usr/obj files when it is compiled. Are the linkages to the userland stuff dynamic? (or, perhaps vis-a-versa: dyanamic links *from* userland to the kernel?) >Do NOT edit /etc/defaults/make.conf. Instead, put entries like, > > CFLAGS=-O -pipe > NOPROFILE=true > >In /etc/make.conf. My post did propose _copying_ make.conf from /etc/defaults to /etc, since my /etc/make.conf was esstentially empty. (heh, you are not alone: I had another reply warning against editing /etc/default files) Basically, my complaint was that the handbook says to edit /etc/make.conf (specifically to enable options by removing the comment character), but doesn't state that the file may need to be copied over. I figured this out only *after* I finished, so I didn't have the options you listed above (which the handbook states should be there). Simple things like this can cause newbies (like myself) some trouble, and generate "stupid" questions on mailing lists. Should this be a problem report (PR)? (I have never used send-PR, maybe I should try) > >firewalling is quite easy... figuring out how to make a useful >ruleset is non-trivial. Right now I have a simple system and simple needs. (That will probably change, though) I just have a single PC connected to a Netopia router, and I just want to serve web pages, browse the net, send and receive email, and occasionally download files with ftp. I don't need other services. Do I really need a firewall? or do I just need to deny all ports and connections except what I need? In any case, it seems that a firewall is still a good idea if only because I can learn (it's becoming kind of standard operating procedure). It also seems that it's necessary for instituting more advanced safety measures like guarding against possible DOS attacks. What I am trying to decide now is if ipfw would be sufficient or if I should use IPfilter (or both - is that possible?). I am thinking that ipfw is probably enough for now.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am using FreeBSD 4-release, and I read through the man page on natd and followed its instructions, but no luck. I'll give you the run-down of what I have done, hopefully someone can see the problem. First, I added : options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT to my config and built the new kernel. Then I added: firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=open gateway_enable=YES to my /etc/rc.conf file. /etc/services already had the line "natd 8668/divert" so I didn't need to add it. Then I added the following to my /etc/rc.firewall, and changed the IP addresses and netmasks listed in it to the ones I am using. /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ed0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any I have ed0 as my internet connection, and xl0 as my internal network, and I run the command natd -interface ed0 when I first boot up. I can access both the LAN and the internet from this machine, but the rest of the LAN can't get internet access. Anything I missed?

This is known, and will hopefully be addressed soon.

This is known, and will hopefully be addressed > soon. The issue is that /etc/defaults/make.conf is new to 4.0. The handbook is still talking about what to do in 3.x and sometimes 2.2.x in certain parts. I think for now it should contain mention for how to handle both. Submitting a PR as a doc-bug is a perfectly good idea. Like Eric mentions, it is known that parts of the handbook are not up to date, but the best way to get a piece fixed is to do a PR _which includes a good rewrite for the portions you are criticizing._ In this case, write a section that points out what to do for both 3.4-STABLE and 4.0-STABLE. I should also mention that you really should not copy /etc/defaults/make.conf to /etc/make.conf. Only include overrides in /etc/make.conf. There are several reasons for this, and you should not get into the habit of doing it. e.g. If you copy /etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf, it will actually break your startup. -- Crist J.

If you absolutely, positively, definitely, need GNOME right now, the simplest solution is to build it from ports. However, y'all should be aware that I am in the midst of a massive upgrade of the GNOME metaport to the recently released 1.2 version, which I hope to have committed in the next week or so.

For system wide application, look in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults for a file that corresponds to the program in question. You will have to find out what the resource names are that you want to change so hopefully that is documented somewhere for your program.

Have you ran 'moused -p /dev/ums0' and then tested the mouse for example? usbd(8) will automate some of that (since it already runs moused(8) automagically). You do have to enable the devices before you can use them. See the ums(4) and ukbd(4) manpages. > BTW, did you make any progress toward USB support statically linked into a > GENERIC kernel? It's in -current right now, along with USB support in sysinstall. Right now an AT keyboard is still needed during install because of the kernel's userconfig however.

These settings are from win98. Use this as a guide as to where to find your NIC settings. The MaxMTU setting below is not present in the registry out of the box, you have to add it by hand. (And people think windows is easier to use!) NT probably has different registry key names that handle NIC behavior. By the way, if you plan to use Samba to map windows network drives, again, you'll have trouble with the out of the box settings. NT with service pack 3 and greater and win98 encrypt the network logon passwords, and Samba gags on them. You have to enable "allowplaintextpasswords" (this is from memory) on the windows machines and Samba will allow access to the drives. Microsoft's knowledge base actually has a good article on the subject. Search there for samba and you should come up with the right article.

In the mean time, I need to add a lot of swap space to it. I've done this: vnconfig -ce /dev/vn0c /usr/local/swapfile swap (vn was already in the kernel and the devices are there already). Now, it's not clear to me where I can see (other than ls -l) that the file is actually being utilized, or at what point it would be. The goal being to add space for swapping for our very busy named daemon. I've noted in /etc/rc.conf the swapfile definition, and I've set that; however, I presume I needed to add the above vnconfig statement to /etc/rc.local to enable it (since I cannot find info on the format of /etc/vnconfig). This is an emergency procedure, and of course other routes will be taken once the crisis is overwith.

No. If you add the file to /etc/rc.conf, that is all you need to do. See the following in /etc/rc, # Add additional swapfile, if configured. if [ "x$swapfile" != "xNO" -a -w "$swapfile" -a -b /dev/vn0b ]; then echo "Adding $swapfile as additional swap." vnconfig /dev/vn0b $swapfile && swapon /dev/vn0b fi > This is an emergency procedure, and of course other routes will be taken > once the crisis is overwith. One thing, you did "take up some space" with /usr/local/swapfile before you enabled it? Something like, # dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/local/swapfile bs=1m count=64 Which would make the file, and your resulting swap space, 64 MB. -- Crist J.

An underutilized gem for system administrators is the 'apropos' command. You could have done 'apropos swap' and it would give you a list of man pages related to "swap." swapinfo is in there. You can also take a look at the output of top to get a more terse outline of what's happening with swap in general.

Any idea what I have to change to fix that? sendmail(8) gets started after natd(8) in the standard boot sequence. Have you made changes to any rc-files besides rc.conf?

The _new_ kernel does not need anything in /dev or /usr/obj (the running one needs stuff in /dev). You can build a kernel with only the files in /usr/src/sys in fact. As for /etc only /etc/make.conf has an effect, and it should only change _how_ the kernel is compiled, the resulting kernel should be the same. As for dynamic linking, there are lkd(4)'s. They are all of the files under /modules. However, they are not needed at compile time and are only built at a make world, not a typical kernel compile.

Well, all it takes is putting, firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type= In your /etc/rc.conf.

Can I remove the CVS stuff by using "rm -rf" on the repository (e.g. /usr/local/cvsroot) just like normal directories (assuming no one is using it of course)? Using modules is a good idea. It seems to me that a module can have sub-modules from the format of the file modules. Is this correct?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi All:) Late last week I was bringing NFS up on two system which had not been running it, so as to mount /usr/src and /usr/obj partitions for a -stable update. I got it done eventually, but dabble in NFS as little as possible. At one point I probably tried to issue a mount as user dmiller by mistake. Imagine my surprise when, three or so days later, I ran out of virtual memory. I killed a login screen I had running and ran top on another vty.

I would like to use my FreeBSD machine there as the other end of the tunnel. I am using FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE on both my home and work machines. I tried doing it with ssh and ppp but have not been successful. It seems that nos-tun and gif are possibilities as well as a couple of ports, such as poptop/pptpclient. In the archives I saw a couple of examples of people tunneling two private networks together but not via a modem. Has anyone set up a VPN using a dynamically assigned IP address? A first step would be to know what is the best program to use for achieving this.

I have been using Unix systems for years and still get frustrated and stumped at times. And the focus of FreeBSD is to be a server, and perhaps a workstation, but not a desktop. The difference is that support for nice things like sound, fonts, and user interface are not really at the same level as you would find for other systems like Windows and MacOS. It simply has not been a priority because the core group of FreeBSD developers wish to create a solid server based system. FreeBSD does have a GUI interface and you can install Gnome or KDE which are both pretty good once you have them installed and configured to suit you, but you have to do some work to get them there. FreeBSD can also do sound and has decent support for fonts, but not to the level as other desktop oriented systems. I would expect that you will need to feel comfortable with the command-line if you hope to make FreeBSD your day to day system. If that is totally foreign to you, you will have to get past some growing pains here. I came from the DOS world from long ago before I went to college and started to get exposed to Unix. I had some command-line experience, which is becoming less and less rare as people first learn to use a computer with Win95 and above. Perhaps you would find it easier to start with Linux which does strive to create a friendly desktop environment. If you spent the $30 to buy a CD set at Best Buy you will also get phone support to get past any problems right away. If you choose FreeBSD you will have this mailing list as a resource, but responses to questions will not be a quick or perhaps as helpful as a toll free phone call to Caldera. Linux also detects and sets up your GUI interface and sound without making you read up on any of the internals of Linux. This may be get past some stumbling blocks. You can also get by for a while without much exposure to the command-line. After running Linux for a few months and you are comfortable with the Unix-like environment, back up the system entirely and install FreeBSD as you wish. With the experience with Linux you have built you will be better prepared to really enjoy running FreeBSD. I started with DOS, went to Windows, then to MacOS. I then took a job where I was on FreeBSD workstations all day. I liked them. After a year I sampled 3 of the major Linux distros and found them easy to set up, but still found FreeBSD to be preferable once the initial work to set it up was completed. FreeBSD has the ports collections and a mentality which sets it apart. You have to experience both Linux and FreeBSD for some time to see the difference. By experiencing Linux and FreeBSD you will be able to choose the one you like best. I just hope the differences between the Unix world and Windows does not scare you off. There will be a learning curve, but once you get past it, you will be that much better for overcoming that small challenge. And depending on what you do for a living, having that knowledge may make you a more valuable person to have around. :) Brennan Stehling - web developer and sys admin projects: www.greasydaemon.com | www.onmilwaukee.com | www.sncalumni.com Microsoft: Will you get a macro virus today? http://www.greasydaemon.com/noms/ <- Why avoid MS?

The backbone in both case is a Cisco Cataylst swicth (one was 1900 the other 2900). FreeBSD v3.3 is in use at both networks. 10.0.0.128/255.255.255.192 routed to access server (10.0.0.7) for dialup customers After some time of no activity on the network anyone whois dialed in to the access server can not contact the machines on 10.0.0.14,10.0.0.15 The machine all have the correct netmask being: 10.0.0.1 (router) 255.255.255.224 10.0.0.2 (mail) 255.255.255.224 10.0.0.3 (www) 255.255.255.224 10.0.0.7 (access server) 255.255.255.224 10.0.0.14 (proxy1) 255.255.255.224 10.0.0.15 (proxy2) 255.255.255.224 The mail machine is always accessible, maybe becuase it has radius and named running, keeping the connection to the access server and client alive. Externally to the network I can at all times traceroute to the dialup customer, and the proxy servers. As soon as I trace route to the proxy servers and 'open' the connection, the dialup customer can begin to use the proxy. The proxy will remain 'open' to the dialup user unless no data is transfered for more than 5-15 minutes. When it is not working the client cannot access either proxy. If a connection to one of the proxies is opened, the other proxy becomes available. The access server and router's ethernet interfaces are set the the correct netmask, and ip classless is set on both routers (10.0.0.1 & 10.0.0.6) A bainaid is currently in place which solves the problem. On the individual proxy machines i have set a ping to ping itself eg I have ping 10.0.0.14 on proxy1 and ping 10.0.0.15 on proxy 2. Any help ideas to solve this would be much appreciated. Note 10.0.0.x is not the actual network used.

A recent message on the list mentions breaking a 40gig drive into a 30gig and 10gig partition. Personally, I wanted a ton of disk space in one place I would use a hardware RAID. Having a very large partition seems like a bad idea for some intangible reason. I prefer partitions between 4 and 10gigs which allows me to move user directories to other partitions as the /home partition gets to be a bit too full. For example, I have a FreeBSD box at home which has a /home partition which is 3 gig large. Since I have been pulling down many mp3 files I run out of space quite often as my collection grows. Today I moved 1.8 gigs of mp3 files to /export2 which is a 5 gig partition which will now let me download many more files. Of course I could have created a large 20 gig partition, but I like the fact that I get an early warning that the disk space is being used up. Perhaps my methods are a bit quirky.

Umm... I don't think so. One machine, one NIC, three IPs, and three domain names do not imply NAT. Well, as for domain names, it usually has little to do with the setup the OS. It may have a lot to do with how you configure servers and apps on the machine. Since you have not mentioned any of these, no point in going further with that. For multiple IPs, see ifconfig(8) and rc.conf(5). -- Crist J.

There are a couple things to think about with these configs though. First are you going to be stepping on corporate security's toes when you do this? Second can you ping the target machine at work? The big issue is establishing any kind of connection between the work and home machines. Once that is done then it is reasonably simple to get the rest of it going. A technique that I have used is to establish an ssh session between two systems. Then bind the socket on both ends using ppp(1)'s tunneling capability. chris -- Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 28 21:53:58 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fedde.littleton.co.us (fedde.littleton.co.us [216.17.174.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4B91837BB8A for ; Sun, 28 May 2000 21:53:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cfedde@fedde.littleton.co.us) Received: from fedde.littleton.co.us (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by fedde.littleton.co.us (8.10.0/8.10.0) with ESMTP id e4T4rrv00832; Sun, 28 May 2000 22:53:53 -0600 (MDT) Message-Id: <200005290453.e4T4rrv00832@fedde.littleton.co.us> To: Zhihui Zhang Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Use CVS for the first time In-Reply-To: From: Chris Fedde Date: Sun, 28 May 2000 22:53:53 -0600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 28 May 2000 22:01:04 -0400 (EDT) Zhihui Zhang wrote: +------------------ | I am considering using CVS for a project on FreeBSD. | [...] | Any enlightment is appreciated. | | -Zhihui +------------------ I've always used some kind of revision control on even solo projects.

I have a few questions to assist me in getting organized. The FreeBSD Samba server will be used by approximately 30 a staff members of a law office. These users will need read/write access to the Samba server in order to store various files and/or documents. Users will also require read only access to various law journals and research tools, which will be periodically written from cd to the server hard disk drive. It is conceivable that this machine will store in excess of 15 to 20 GB of data. This server will be configured as follows: 2 18GB SCSI hard disk drives 1 40GB tape backup drive 1 Intel 700MHz PIII CPU 512 MB Ram etc... This server should be accessible from the internal tcp/ip network (192.168.0.x), and accessible from the users off-site locations via the internet. I am thinking that a VPN would be in order for off-site access. All users will accessing the FreeBSD Samba server via Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows 2000 workstations, and probably 2 or 3 systems running FreeBSD / X / KDE combinations, and/or Linux / X / KDE combinations. There may even be a Windows 3.1 or Macintosh workstation connected to the network. The internal network is connected to the internet via a cable modem connection and a FreeBSD gateway. Users currently use this gateway for online legal research, as well as general internet access. Users accessing the Samba server attached to the internal (192.168.0.) network remotely should be able to pass through the FreeBSD gateway in order to connect to the FreeBSD Samba server. My questions are as follows: What type of Virtual Private Networking software would be recommended for the situation described above? I would like to set this machine up on the internal network using a 192.168.0. ip address. I base this on the assumption that being on the internal network, the server, and the data on it, would be more secure. The problem is will I be able to VPN into the server remotely via the internet, or will I have to use IPFW to forward packets from the remotely connected internet users to the internal Samba server. Vinum - Should I use this product to enhance the performance on the FreeBSD Samba server? What are the pros and cons of implementing Vinum? I must also set up an intranet/internet server for the purpose of providing web services, email services, ftp services, and DNS. I am assuming that these services should be housed on a machine separate from the Samba server. Currently, I plan on beefing up our internet gateway in order to handle these tasks. I have a great deal of experience using FreeBSD for gateways and Samba servers, as well as email, www, and ftp servers, but the advanced techniques that I imagine that will be required to get the VPN going have me a bit concerned. Any suggestions or pointers to information which may assist me in this task would be appreciated. Thanks In Advance!

When connection comes into port 6669 it kicks off ppp with the right arguments. Addressing at the endpoints can be confusing. Think of the ssh port mapping as as a point-to-point circuit. You may need more tun devices. Some issues: WLOG If the local system is inside the corporate firewall and the remote system is outside then this technique extends the boundry of the corporate network to your remote system and by association to your home security procedures.

So first I tried using cdd from /usr/ports. No dice, the resulting file is static. Next I searched for an alternative and found daex. Since I'm running FreeBSD-4.0-RELEASE the kernel mods the author describes are outdated. I modified the daex source to use the CDIOCREADAUDIO ioctl and got another program ripping static data from my CDs. Next I thought the CDROM device simply didn't support the function so I replaced it with one I know works (in Windows). Still the static... So my question is -- does anyone have any experience with the above ioctl call? Why is my buffer coming back full of static instead of music? Does anyone have a better ripping tool? What am I doing wrong?

Since i'm just a poor high school student I can't really afford to buy the FreeBSD CD. So I downloaded quite a bit of the ports and packages directories of my local FTP site. Whenever I try to do a "make install" on any port it always ends up failing with a bunch of complaints about being unable to find the files. 1. I noticed a certain similarity between the names of some of the tarballs in the packages directory of the FTP site and the files that a "make fetch-list" will list. Actually the names are exactly the same except for the extensions, which will usually be .tgz and .tar.gz. Can I just rename the files from the packages directory and use those to make ports? 2.If I can't use those, where CAN i find the tarballs for the sources that I need? -justin ko To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 29 2:25:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ipamzlx.physik.uni-mainz.de (ipamzlx.Physik.Uni-Mainz.DE [134.93.180.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0090137B681 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 02:25:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ohartman@ipamzlx.physik.uni-mainz.de) Received: from ipamzlx.Physik.Uni-Mainz.DE (ipamzlx.Physik.Uni-Mainz.DE [134.93.180.54]) by ipamzlx.physik.uni-mainz.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA73727 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 11:27:02 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from ohartman@ipamzlx.physik.uni-mainz.de) Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 11:27:01 +0200 (CEST) From: "O.

My problem is that when I try to telnet or ftp to this server, the connection just sits and waits until it eventually times out. This happens when trying to connect from another FreeBSD machine (3.4 & 4.0) and also from a Win98 machine. All these machines are currently on a 192.168.* network and all other services (DNS, HTTPD etc)seem to work fine. Anyone have any ideas please? I am assuming that you can ping into this machine just fine, then. You could look at /etc/inetd.conf and make sure it has the lines ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/telnetd telnetd Then you can check /etc/services for the following lines: ftp-data 20/tcp ftp-data 20/udp ftp 21/tcp ftp 21/udp telnet 23/tcp telnet 23/udp It seems somewhat odd to me that telnet and ftp don't work as they are enabled by default when you install FreeBSD. The other thing you could check is to try to telnet into the box and while you are doing that try #ps -aux |grep "telnetd" to see if inetd is spawning a telnetd. (and likewise for ftpd) That's all I can think of.

I have made patches to change default width to 40 chars per Ruslan Ermilov's request. Since I removed these patches few months ago try to ask him (ru@FreeBSD.org) and just customize them with changing default values. PS: You need not to change anything in man(1).

All issues are directly related > to groff(1). It seems that I have figured how to do it. The only problem is that there is two types of manpages - one native FreeBSD and one for contributed software (e.g. tcsh, gcc etc.). For some unknown for me reasons (I'm not a very big groff expert) the latter actually make use of /usr/share/tmac/man.local, while the former requires adjustments to the mdoc/doc-nroff. It would be nice if you add ".mso man.local" somewhere in FreeBSD specific configuration, so it would be possible to amend configuration in just one place and avoid editing mdoc configuration. The best solution, however, would be appropriate modifications for man(1) to respect COLUMNS and LINES environment variables. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 29 6:12:37 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from colossus.invictanet.co.uk (colossus.invictanet.co.uk [62.232.18.118]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 697B137BC21 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 06:12:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from martynr@invictanet.co.uk) Received: from harryhome (modem98.netkonect.net [194.164.208.98]) by colossus.invictanet.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id OAA00547; Mon, 29 May 2000 14:12:28 +0100 (BST) Reply-To: From: "Martyn Routley" To: "Freebsd-Questions" Cc: "Chad Ziccardi" Subject: RE: ftp & telnet Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 14:12:32 +0100 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal In-Reply-To: <39325C56.EA77009C@bellatlantic.net> X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Chad I love you!

S3 Aurora64V+ video card (2MB) Logitech Mouseman cordless mouse (3 buttons) 4 CD-loader x8 Japanese layout keyboard Now, I've installed FreeBSD 3.3 with little trouble (not trouble-free though, but that was due to not being able to fiddle with the BIOS). Everything ok except for the mouse, which does not recognize. I wouldn't mind it if it didn't recognize it for the console, but at least for X. I've been looking for info on this mouse types (cordless ...), and all I was able to find was a page with some messages about configuring the Logitec Mouseman cordless "wheelmouse" (remember mine is just a 3-button mouse). My X version is 3.3.5, and I tried to apply the configuration protocol they talked about: imps/2 or MouseManPlus/2 or some such (I've tried several different ones), but X does not recognize this protocol ... any idea?

It is not. My bet is that you are running FreeBSD 4.0 without IPv6 enabled (or have a NIC that will not support IPv6), and you are running ftpd(8) without the '-4' option. I believe ftpd on 4.0 defaults to trying to use both IPv4 and IPv6 unless told otherwise. -- Crist J.

Yes, send information about how you tried to do this to the list, and we might be able to help. What you tried should work. The contents of rc.conf would be a good start as well as any additional files like natd.conf and rc.firewall if they are being used or have been modified from the original. -- Crist J.

But I'm not sure. I've been using bind (named) from when it was defined/implemented. (I still remember HOSTS.TXT on MILNET (shudder!).) I have no idea how to configure M$ Windoze boxes in a non-bind environment. When you have time, I would suggest you get the O'Reilly book (Cricket) and learn about DNS. It's a basic skill that anyone who will manage a UNIX system needs to be proficient. You'll need DNS as soon as you have another FreeBSD box (managing duplicate /etc/hosts files is error prone) or connect your network to the Internet. Alex Kwan wrote: > > Hi!

Your machine, a 586-75, is of the right timeframe to have one of the trouble making IDE controllers, but I've never seen that error before. People mostly have been complaining about kernel panics when they have one of the questionable controllers. See the previous threads from the list, "RZ100 ATA Controller Problem," and "Problem Booting 4.0R Floppy (ATA Driver?)." At this point, your options seem to be to not use the IDE controller or run 3.4. But like I said, I've not seen a problem like yours before. -- Crist J.

I just bought "The complete FreeBSD", the Walnut Creek CDROM Books. I already install FreeBSD, but I have some problem to log on the internet. I choose to use User PPP to log onto the net via my isp, but when I try to log on, after typing: ppp, and after that : dial isp , a message appear and said:

Warning, Chap script failed

What can I do?

My ppp.conf file is exactly (well almost) like the one in the book, can you help me? I'm tired of using windows to e-mail you.

Here is an example: .forward contents "| /usr/local/bin/mail.filter" .forward contents - alternative "| /home/wilde-user/bin/mail.filter" Then you can use the filter scripts, or simply edit the .mail.filter rules file directly. It is perl code which is eval'd from the filter, so if you know perl, this will be your best friend. .mail.filter contents $result = 1 if ($incoming{'from'} =~ /earthlink.net/);|delete $result = 1 if ($incoming{'from'} =~ /spammer/);|delete $result = 1 if ($incoming{'from'} =~ /cdnow.com/);|delete Alternatively, the script in this package will interactively ask you questions to add filters to your .mail.filter file. This name of this script is mailfilter and you can run this from the command line if you have shell access. The author of this script is continually updating this script to add more features, but so far it does what you want, including save to a file, forwarding, or running another program. I hope this helps.

None of the compile/ directories for any of my 3.4 or 4.0 systems have a modules/ directory.

Clark cjclark@home.com Dear Crist J. Clark, I am afraid Michael Harnois is right. Under -CURRENT, there IS such a .../compile/[mykernel]/modules directory. This issue, ie the mechanism to prevent kernel and modules from being out of sync with each other, has recently been discussed in the -current forum as I recall. Also, AFAICR, there was a thread dealing with "panic in the morning", or something like that, about these specific problems.

Ahh, a -CURRENT question. freebsd-questions is not really the appropriate place for -CURRENT discussion. As mentioned, freebsd-current is the place. Never thought to look at my one 5.0 machine before answering; probably should have. Sorry to add to any confusion. -- Crist J.

I have our LAN connected to the Inet via a freebsd router, but Battlecom isnt working beause of the Firewall. I have found a workaraound on the Battlecom Homepage that is ment for Linux boxes: To use BattleCom Client from within a network which is connected to the Internet through an IP Masquerade you must forward the appropriate ports to the PC behind the masquerade. Step 1: You need to have root or su access. Step 2: Find the ipmasqadm rpm for ipchains or the ipautofw rpm if you're using ipfwadm and install the RPM (if not already installed... can be found at rpmfind.net) Step 3: For IP Chains use this command set: ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r udp 2300 2400 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r tcp 2300 2400 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r tcp 47624 47624 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r udp 47624 47624 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r udp 28800 28900 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz For ipfwadm: ipautofw -A -v -r udp 2300 2400 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipautofw -A -v -r tcp 2300 2400 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipautofw -A -v -r tcp 47624 47624 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipautofw -A -v -r udp 47624 47624 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz ipautofw -A -v -r udp 28800 28900 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz You should replace www.xxx.yyy.zzz with the IP Address of the PC behind the masquerade that will be running the BattleCom Client. Now as these lines seem to be a little not so common, i have trouble to translate them into some freebsd compatible format. I have read lots of Documents about freebsd and linux firewalling, but still have trouble finding out, just WHAT THESE LINES ARE TELLING THE FIREWALL TO DO!!

In -current at least modules are built as part of the kernel build. This is rather annoying on a 486 where a kernel build took long enough before, but it's probably better than booting the kernel and getting a panic because the modules are out of sync. As for why they're all built, rather than just the ones that will be used, I guess it's because FreeBSD doesn't have a telepathy module which can tell which modules the admin will kldload in advance. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 29 12: 9:41 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 59DD637BC62 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 12:09:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #1) id 12wTPV-000Poc-00; Mon, 29 May 2000 18:33:05 +0100 Received: (from ben) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12wTPV-0000VY-00; Mon, 29 May 2000 18:33:05 +0100 Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 18:33:05 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Boucher Eric Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Problem configuration Message-ID: <20000529183305.B29735@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <3932A18B.33B23591@sympatico.ca> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: <3932A18B.33B23591@sympatico.ca> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Boucher Eric wrote: > [something in text/html] Please resend your question in plain text only, many people here probably use mailers which don't do HTML.

I did run a 'make clean' and 'make depend' first as well as verify the existance of the path the depend links..and it does infact exist. Has anyone successfully used this tutorial on 4.0-RELEASE?

You could change the permissions on 'passwd' so that they cannot execute it. Depending on your circumstances, you should probably change 'chpass' as well.

Odd, just did this a few days ago with the port, and it came up with a dialog asking me what I wanted to put in; and PHP + Postgresql is *definitely* compiled into my compile of Apache.

When the OS tells you everything, with a magical paperclip guy you get use to not having to learn something before trying to do it. Coming from DOS to Unix is one thing, but a GUI based system to a command-line heavy system which does not aspire to be a desktop system does not make for the most helpful newbie environment. If that is not what you want to hear, consider that FreeBSD is a server OS, not a desktop OS. And has been mentioned in many articles over the last couple of months, FreeBSD is trying to be positioned to be the big brother to Linux. Once someone is ready for a mature Unix-like system, they can move up to FreeBSD. Besides, if he attempts to run FreeBSD at home and cannot get PPP or any networking to work, how can he consult with this mailing list? Linux distros offer around the clock phone support for the cost of the CDs. And Linux is not all that horrible. At least it is not a MS product.

Why would that be impossible or inadvisable today?!? It's not about brains but rather the large amount of docs you must read just to get started with the system. And don't forget he'll be ** administering ** his UNIX machine. At the past (and in many companies today) UNIX workstations were administered by professionals. Most Linux distributions are designed for the desktop and are quite a bit easier for first time users. One BIG point for FreeBSD (and the reason I am switching) is the good (and mostly up-to-date) online documentation describing the SYSTEM. Linux man pages describe commands, are sometimes outdated and usually don't describe the way the system (e.g., pppd) has been integrated into the distribution. You have to read all those messy howto's. -- Nimrod.

Just curious. Anyhow, it sounds to me as if your "home" partition/directory is now missing. As root you should try to "cd /usr/home/" and see if the directory structure still exists. For the record, I doubt that you can just chmod a file/directory or two and make this go away.

Samba appears to be broadcasting to the lo0 interface. I have configured smb.conf with `bind interfaces only = true' to the internal Ethernet interface and the loopback interface to prevent broadcasts to the ISP subnet. It doesn't surprise me to see Samba performing broadcasts on the configured interfaces. I want Samba on lo0 for the password change facility. I have found that natd is translating Samba broadcasts to the loopback interface into packets with the source address of the divert socket interface. Output from natd -v is shown here (216.17.176.12 is the external interface IP address): Out [UDP] [UDP] 127.0.0.1:137 -> 127.255.255.255:137 aliased to [UDP] 216.17.176.12:137 -> 127.255.255.255:137 natd: failed to write packet back: Permission denied My ipfw setup, based largely on /etc/rc.firewall, stops such packets. The relevant parts of the ipfw configuration is shown here: (dc0 = external interface) 00100 divert 8668 ip from any to any via dc0 00200 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00300 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 [ ... ] My question is; Why is natd interfering with the lo0 broadcast packets? The divert socket is specific to the external interface (dc0) and the lo0 broadcast packets are clearly from and to the loopback interface. I'm not an IP guru so I don't fully understand the implications of broadcasting to the loopback interface. Perhaps this is normal behavior for natd. What approach should I take?

The questions are the following: 1. I install FreeBSD as my machine to working with Internet. Now I would like to have on it Xserver. In the file /etc/ttys Ihane the following string ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon " xterm off secure but when I enter Ctrl+Alt+F9 I don't see anything. 2.

I hope that someone will help FreeBSD (afaik) only supports iX86 and DEC-Alpha architectures. I checked NetBSD.org - and the 6100 is 'unsupported', and it looks like it also won't happen on OpenBSD, either. Sorry.

My ISP has installed the Brightmail filter locally. It catches quite a bit of spam. Lacking that aparently as a marketing ploy they will filter an individual's email for free: http://www.brightmail.com/individual/ Haven't tried the above but suspect they pop your mail from you ISP while at the same time you are pop'ing from them. Meaning Brightmail has to have the password to your ISP account. Further checking their FAQ suggests they don't do APOP yet, so the password traverses the net in the clear. One nice feature of Brightmail is they don't discard suspected spam. You can check on caught spam at a website. Interesting the only thing they wrongly caught was an announcement from Jordan K.

I wonder if anyone uses dump(8) nowadays in a production environment. It seems the best backup tool as it preserves hard links, sparce files etc. However, there are some practical questions I need enlightment on. 1. You are supposed to mount a filesystem readonly before you dump it, right? Then dump cannot write /etc/dumpdates and aborts. Moreover, I cannot stop the services every time I need to dump a filesystem. How do you deal with that? 2. The tape drive is only on one host, so I need to dump filesystems over the network. I can boot in single user mode, mount the filesystems readonly, but then I have to do all the ifconfig, route etc. stuff (to see the tape server) by hand which is annoying. 3. Is dump really so vulnerable to modifications of filesystems during dump? Then how is it supposed to work on non-stop systems? Surely there must be some know-how. People seem to have been using dump(8) for years, and in huge companies too. I only have to dump 11 boxes, some with very important data updated every 20 minutes or so, to a tape drive on one of the boxes. Dump users, please reply. Any input is greatly appreciated. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/149@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 29 19:58:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dfw-smtpout1.email.verio.net (dfw-smtpout1.email.verio.net [129.250.36.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D5A7837B841 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 19:58:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ericdano@ncal.verio.com) Received: from [129.250.38.64] (helo=dfw-mmp4.email.verio.net) by dfw-smtpout1.email.verio.net with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12wcEh-0004Oh-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 30 May 2000 02:58:31 +0000 Received: from [161.58.1.76] (helo=shell1) by dfw-mmp4.email.verio.net with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12wcEg-0000ss-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 30 May 2000 02:58:30 +0000 Date: Mon, 29 May 2000 22:58:30 -0400 (EDT) From: Eric Dannewitz To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Setting Up a Hard-Diskless Firewall Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, I currently have a couple of FreeBSD machines running (FreeBSD 4.0 webserver, and a firewall running 3.2).

You could have deleted a line in fstab by accident or perhaps messed up the devices in some way. Mistakes of all kinds happen to everyone. If things are really hosed, it is probably best to back it up and try to put the server back together from past backups. One way to determine how bad it is would be to boot into single user mode and have a look around. Once you are in, you will need to mount the drives... > fsck -p > mount -u / > mount -a -t ufs > swapon -a Once you have a good look around, try to find evidence of a compromise. If you can get the system working to a decent point, it would be best to do a rebuild of the world to be sure all key binaries are solid. Do the rebuild after a fresh cvs sync. But if you are worried about the security of the machine, simply do a reinstall and go off backups.

I was running as root and wanted to go to my regular user directory and change the ownership to my plain user. Here is the command I used... cd /home/brennan find / -exec chown brennan:users {} \; ^ As you see, it should have been... find . -exec chown brennan:users {} \; ^ (rookie error) It was a stupid mistake and this find took a very long time to run. I thought someone was hacking the box. Once I figured out the problem I tooke a snapshot of the twin box and ran a perl script that I wrote to compare permissions on each file and restore them back to the original settings. If you have a cdrom from Walnut Creek, you can use the live filesystem disk as an example and compare the key files and directories to determine if they look right to you. If you need to correct them, go from there. Good Luck!

After I had entered my changes with option "u" for partition 1 it started on partition 2, eventhough it was only given the device for partition 1. So I quit. The disktab entries look ancient. Looking thru the disklable for the working disk it looks like newfs did a bum job, and tunefs is needed. This was 3.2. I'll try 4.0 and see if I have better luck. This time I'll put up freebsd last. ..Al To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 29 22:48:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph (tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph [203.176.27.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9B10237B5D5 for ; Mon, 29 May 2000 22:48:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from joel@tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph) Received: from localhost (joel@localhost) by tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph (8.10.0/8.10.0) with SMTP id e4U5emO28772 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 13:40:51 +0800 Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 05:40:47 +0000 ( ) From: Joel Eusebio To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: RE: network Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I've installed a 4.0-stable of freebsd on my P 166 32 MB machine with a Realtek 8029 NIC.

Seeing that I had a million of my questions answered from the list not to long ago I'll repay the debt on your questions. :) #1 If file systems are to be mouted read only durring a dump then it's news to me. I've never heard of it and have never done it. A quick look at the man page for dump doesn't say this either. #2 I use dump for 5 servers on my network to a single machine. Works realy good. You have to allow for rsh because dump will use it to do the dirty work. Not exactly secure but if you aren't doing dumps in a cron script then you can just enable rsh durring the times you prefer to do the dumps. #3 You don't have to be single user to do a dump. That would kind of defeat the use of a network dump. #4 I'm not entirely sure about this but as far as doing a dump on an active file system. Dump takes a sort of snapshot of the file system before it starts pumping data to tape. So files modified durring a dump will only have the data as it was before dump took the snap of it. As soon as you issue the dump command your disks will go crazy as dump figures out what all needs to be dumped. I just kind of assumed that it was snaping the file system. Or depending on the level of dump you are doing will be looking to see the modification dates on files to determine what needs dumping. Anyone with more info on this I'd like to know about it. #5 I've never known anyone to halt services while dumping a file system. Hope that answered some questions.

You can either install it from the FreeBSD ports collection or download the tarball from apache.org. The first one of the two is the easiest. If you do not have the ports collection installed, you can install it with /stand/sysinstall. After you have the ports collection ready, you will find it at /usr/ports. Briefly, the ports collection is a skeleton of 1000's of applications you can easily install on your FreeBSD box. Any patches that are needed to make the general source code work for FreeBSD will be applied automatically during the simple install process. There are a few options for installing an apache server. You can look around to decide what you want. The basic server is at... /usr/ports/www/apache13 Go to the directory and run the following command. make make install These two commands will download apache 1.3 source code, compile all binaries and place all new files where they belong, including placing man pages and docs on your FreeBSD box where you can make use of them. Since I like to work apache into my own configuration with mod_perl and mod_rewrite I do not like using the ports collection to install apache. If you want to install it directly from the source so you can use the APACI system to install apache with additional modules, you can follow the install instructions in the INSTALL file. The instructions are rather detailed as there are many things that you can do. In fact, there are so many things that you can do that I created several scripts for different kinds of installs. One compiles in mod_perl with suid, another for mod_jserv and mod_perl and other variations. It took some time to learn to do it right, but it really is very interesting. Once you compile apache a few times you will be able to tackle other applications more easily. Good Luck!

As far as putty is concerned, I've never been comfortable running an ssh client by someone who not only refuses to implement rsa authentication, but also seems to lack understanding as to why rsa authentication is a good thing to have. I recommend securecrt, or tterm with ttssh extensions if cost is an issue. (you can't beat free in the price category). Most importantly, get rid of telnetd. Any ssh implementation is an amazing improvement over telnetd. Since the original request was regarding vt100, I'd lean towards securecrt. Excellent vt support, complete with a great font.

I too am working on a solution with PXE and Intel Pro100 cards. So far I've managed to use a combination of PXE and ISC's dhcp v3Beta to load the "pxeloader", which in turn loads a kernel over NFS, which finally mounts an NFS_ROOT partition. However, after the root partition is mounted everything goes south. If I export a copy of the BSD root filesystem (/bin /sbin /dev /var /tmp /dev /stand) from a Solaris box nothing works, the kernel complains it can't find "/sbin/init" or "/stand/sysinstall", the filesystem is export rw as "/data/bsdfs". However if I export "/" from another BSD box everything seems to work fine, this is not an acceptable solution though as I can't have multiple boxes doing read/writes on the same root fs. As I've mentioned before I'm trying to work towards a solution where I can: (a) boot "pxeloader" using PXE (b) boot customized kernel (c) run a scripted sysinstall for an automated installation. If anyone's ever user "boot net - install" and Jumpstart (Solaris Sparc) you'll know exactly what I'm working towards. I guess I just wanted to share my experience with this PXE thing and solicit any advice/experiences that others have had. If we can get this right we've taken a huge step in remote management for FreeBSD (and other Intel) servers. -- Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 0:25: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from odin.activeisp.no (odin.activeisp.com [213.188.133.110]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 09C9F37B645 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 00:25:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nc@collector.org) Received: from kekar (kekar.activeisp.com [213.188.133.26]) by odin.activeisp.no (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id JAA06006 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 09:25:02 +0200 (CEST) Message-ID: <02cf01bfca08$322be5b0$1a85bcd5@kekar.dhs.org> From: "Kenneth Karoliussen" To: Subject: Fw: Default stack size Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 09:25:13 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2919.6700 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG stack size (kbytes) 65536 Is there a convenient way to increase the default stack size limit (64MB) in the kernel configuration?

That is a mischarecterization of the author's position, which can be found at the end of http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist.html. If you don't want to use putty, don't. But please don't cast aspersions on someone just because they don't agree with the "wisdom" of your position. Personally I agree that trying to do something like RSA identity file authentication from a windows machine is a giant security nightmare. I've used putty for a year and a half now, and I've found it to be ideal for the niche that it's designed to occupy. I've corresponded with the author (in the course of tracking down a display bug) and found him to be both responsive and sharp.

Just rename the existing rsh executable and create a link to ssh mv /usr/bin/rsh /usr/bin/rsh.o ln -s /usr/local/bin/ssh /usr/hin/rsh You would also have to configure the remote host to allow this host to connect without specifying a password. It doesn't seem to prompt for one. I would imagine that you can use public keys and host based authentication to control the access to the remote server. I don't know though if this makes it that more secure since someone gaining access to the local root account will have access to the remote server. I guess the same goes for rsh?

I did a #stty -f /dev/cuaa1 -a and it tells me that it is set for 1200. Then when I try to set up cuaa1 for a modem through KDE, it freezes on me.

I try to go back in to X and I cant figure out how to get around with out a mouse. None of the MicroShaft hotkeys work here.

My dmesg finds 2 serial ports and they seem to be the ones that are on my motherboard(com1 and com2) I am still reading though. I think I am going to read your book on this ppp stuff. Is that the best place to read about to get a modem up and running or is there a different chapter to read that would be better?

This is a known problem and it's caused by the way if_spppsubr.c and i4b_isppp.c interact. There's no fix and no work-around for it. Well, actually I have patches which make it work, but only if you have a static IP. AFAIK my patches were never incorporated (and I made them after Hellmuth updated the 4.0 tree, so they won't be in any official release).

Failure with a device busy error. cd # puts you into your home directory umount /cdrom # unmounts the cdrom (run as root) On Mark's other question: For your problem getting into a directory under /usr/local/, can you post a transcript of your session to us? Don't re-type in, actually paste the text in from your session. If you can't copy/paste, you can use the script(1) command to capture all I/O of your session to a text file, which you can then edit (strip it to a few lines that show the problem but don't change those lines) and email to the list. I'm willing to bet that once you've documented this to the point where someone can help you, you will have found a solution for yourself.

The newfs_msdos formatted it OK. That effectively erases the MBR.

Why do you need to have / writeable anyway? A properly configured system should NEVER write there, IMHO. The only thing the system's should write to, IMHO, are /tmp and /home. /etc should be changed on the server. > I guess I just wanted to share my experience with this PXE thing and > solicit any advice/experiences that others have had.

Is that PXE thingy worth a try, meaning should I go hunting for one of those cards in Switzerland? I'd prefer the well known old bootroms as those are pretty generic and therefore not bound to one vendor...

Does anyone out there have more than one PPP dialup link working?? Or a straight forward way I can debug a pure CHAP link? <<<< Original message below >>>> Recently while trying to set up a second PPP link (ppp1) I encounted an error; PPP complained that the netmask of 255.255.255.0 was invalid. I believe it may have something to do with the fact that I already have one PPP link (ppp0) which has a network mask of 255.255.255.128. I am using kernel ppp with - 'pppd file options.vpn' as the command. Setting the netmask to 255.255.255.128 on the second link (ppp1) allows the dialer script to dial and make the connection, but this mask is not valid for the client/gateway combination. Also, despite the fact that I do NOT specify the 'defaultroute' option in the second ppp link options file (options.vpn) pppd attempts to add it giving an error: 'default route exists' Anyone got a clue what's wrong. I am running 3.4S from about midway through Feb/00. Thanks Greg ps.

This is surely clever. But what can be done if I explictly want normal users be able to reboot/halt the system? One possibility that comes to my mind is to compile the kernel so that CTRL+ALT+DEL is interpreted as system-reboot ( I generally disable this, but if it's turned on, users could press these keys and after the system is halted and the reboot-process starts they could turn it of). Now I'm wondering if there's some place in which I can set the system up so that also the halt, reboot and shutdown commands work for normal users. While this surely shouldn't be done on a server in which many people log in ( that shouldn't be rebootable / haltable by everyone), it would be good if it worked on one of my computers which is normally being turned on and off by users as needed.

I use `sudo' from the ports/packages collection for this purpose; it allows to grant users special rights which usually require root privilege.

(This will only work assuming the default chown of root.operator to /sbin/shutdown).

This server (the Samba shares) is accessible from an internal tcp/ip network (192.168.0.x), but is not accessable from off- site location via the internet. I am thinking that a secure VPN would be in order for off-site access. I have looked into PoPToP (from the ports collection), but I am not sure if it will meet my needs. All users will accessing the FreeBSD Samba server via Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows 2000 workstations, and probably 2 or 3 systems running FreeBSD / X / KDE combinations, and/or Linux / X / KDE combinations. There may even be a Windows 3.1 or Macintosh workstation connected to the network. The internal network is connected to the internet via a cable modem connection and a FreeBSD gateway. This gateway is currently up and running. My questions are as follows: What type of Virtual Private Networking software would be recommended for the situation described above? I would like to set this machine up on the internal network using a 192.168.0. ip address. I base this on the assumption that being on the internal network, the server, and the data on it, would be more secure. The problem is will I be able to VPN into the server remotely via the internet, or will I have to use IPFW to forward packets from the remotely connected internet users to the internal Samba server. Would PoPToP meet my VPN needs? Will I need yet another utility/application to make the connections via the internet to the internal Samba server secure (such as IPSec or pipsecd)? Thanks In Advance!

Although I've never had the benefit of dir= ect=20 correspondence with Mr Tatham, I have no reason at all to think that's he's= =20 anything but a great guy. I'm hardly casting aspersions on Mr Tatham. Now= here have I commented on his character or personality. I can only base my opinion on his web site, which you've so considerately pointed to. I see that it's unchanged since the last time I looked. I am confused how my statement is a mischaracterization of his position. I take specific exception to the following: Implausible feature wish list These are features I will probably never get round to adding myself. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing them written, but if it happens somebody else will have to do it, because they're big and complicated and I wouldn't use them enough myself to justify spending all that effort.=20 o Forms of SSH authentication other than password. I don't believe many of these can be made sensibly secure from a Windows box, even NT, and the ones that can tend to require the client to perform RSA private-key operations, which my current RSA code is too slow to do usefully. Plus they involve more typing than a password.=20 Personally, I find this to be a gross mischaracterization of the purpose of= RSA authentication. RSA authentication is desirable for a variety of reasons, none of which have anything to do with the amount of typing required by the user. For someone who has undertaken the development and maintenance of an= ssh client, I find this apparent misunderstanding distressing. The decision to= not support RSA authentication is fine, but to misrepresent (or, it would appea= r, to misunderstand) its use casts significant doubt in my mind. I support his decision to not support RSA authentication, especially in lig= ht of the fact that his code is too slow to be useful, but the fact that he se= ems to completely misunderstand why one would want or need RSA authentication= =20 leaves me questioning his ability to implement any aspect of ssh. Lastly, your restatement of his position seems to be in conflict with the wish list you've quoted. Mr Tatham does not appear to be making the statem= ent that supporting RSA authentication is a "security nightmare". To quote: "I don't believe many of these can be made sensibly secure from a Windows box, even NT,..." I assume that here he is referring to rhosts, kerberos, or perhaps even s/k= ey authentication. "...and the ones that can [be implemented securely on a windows box] tend= to require the client to perform RSA private-key operations, which my curre= nt RSA code is too slow to do usefully." I see here that he is not making the claim that it's insecure to implement= =20 RSA auth from a win32-based client, but rather simply stating that his own implementation is inadequate to be useful. In fairness, he also acknowledges that developing a product that uses the currently patent-protected RSA algorithm is problematic. This is another valid reason to not support RSA auth. It is, however, unrelated to your depiction of his views. In summary, I've not cast any aspersions on Mr Tatham. I've simply express= ed that I have difficulty trusting someone who displays an apparent lack of=20 understanding regarding the protocol that their product ostensibly exists to support. I'm not claiming to be wise. I am just questioning the wisdom of hanging t= he=20 security of your communications on the capabilities of someone who appears = to lack the (I feel) required background and perspective to appropriately deve= lop ssh client software. There are untold millions of folks who are both sharp and responsive who are, despite that, still unqualified to do secure softwa= re design.=20 Thanks for your mail. I'm sorry that you were offended by my post to the mailing list. I hope this helps clarify my position, which was perhaps=20 stated to the list too briefly.

I run freebsd 4.0-current and after I had compiled the kernel as I want it it started giving me an error message "ed0: device timeout". I have configured it in the kernel with the string: device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 9 iomem 0xd8000 wich was the default for this device. The card is fitted in a ISA socket and currently only uses the coax-port and not the tp, I can ping some of the other computers on the network for a few seconds before it fails to send at all. I also have a 3Com 3C509-TPO Etherlink III (ep0) device that sits fit on the motherboard and seems to work fine, at least it doesn't give me any errors. What can I do to prevent this device timeout? I have clean sweeped the bios for any settings but I haven't found any so far. /Martin von Schantz ________________________________________________________________________ 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-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 8:53:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tele-post-20.mail.demon.net (tele-post-20.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9CF8237B645 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 08:53:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cliff@olive.co.uk) Received: from grimwade.demon.co.uk ([194.222.1.157] helo=olive.co.uk) by tele-post-20.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.12 #2) id 12woKz-000OQI-0K for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 30 May 2000 15:53:50 +0000 Received: from olive.co.uk (merlin.osl.co.uk [192.168.1.19]) by olive.co.uk (SMI-8.6/v3.2) with ESMTP id PAA28324 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 15:54:01 GMT Message-ID: <3933E46C.39022D38@olive.co.uk> Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 16:55:24 +0100 From: Cliff Rowley Organization: Olive Systems LTD X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.73 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Netscape...

I want to get the linux version of the adsm/tsm clients running (IBM's storage manager/Backup-system). Now the client coredumps with abort(), as it cannot find any of the shared libs required. (linux_base-6.1 is installed of course) ldd tells me, it looks in /lib/.. instead of /compat/linux/lib etc and complaint not to find e.g. libcrypt.so.1. If I preset LD_LIBRARY_PATH with /compat/linux/lib:... it just a minor improvement, as it then complains not beeing able to find the ld-linux.so.2 dynamic linker, (which is of course present in /compat/linux/lib). A link from /compat/linux/lib to /lib solves that step (but seems unintended and ugly anyway) but doesn't really help, as it then crashes in __kill (well whatever). This all gives me the impression, that although the binaries are branded (brandelf -t Linux), the loader doesn't look at the right place. I thought about chroot, but this didn't work as it somehow still can't find the libs in /compat/linux/lib (then /lib as chrooted). linux ldconfig seems to show that the cache is set up correcly. Anyway, it wouldn't help, since I couln't access the other filesystems for backup (the whole purpose). Any ideas ?

Note that while placing them in the operator group allows them to run the shutdown, it does not allow them to explicitly use 'reboot' or 'halt', but rather 'shutdown -h now' and 'shutdown -r now'. I am assuming that these are workstation machines you want the users to be able to shutdown/reboot no?

First of all, I've had no success with the NFS version of pxeloader. It works much better for me using the TFTP. Also, I've followed the directions in /usr/share/examples/diskless. Using the scheme suggested there, I export / /usr read-only. The rc.diskless{1,2} are responsible for making the right places rw using MFS mounts. I believe that in the examples directory there is a text discussing how to use DISKLESS setups for installation. I think that Matt Dillon calls this "templating". I don't actually export the root parition of server machine but a copy of it. When making this copy, don't forget to make stub directory entries for "/usr /var /tmp" to mount off of. If the "/usr" mount fails, you won't get access to the utilites /usr/{s}bin and the start-up sequence will fail with things like "find not found". You will also need a "/conf /conf/ME /conf/defaults /conf/defaults/etc" in the exported root. I'm currently working on what I think is a bug in the kernel part of BOOTP, it truncates to root path part of the BOOTP response. Until I figure out why, I'm using a shorter name for it. All in all, I'm *very* impressed with the direction that this is going, considering we're using featues that aren't really out there yet. --Mat > > -- > Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 10:22:36 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from avatar.hfdirect.com (avatar.hfdirect.com [207.43.211.121]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 2F44F37BD98 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 10:22:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nugget@avatar.hfdirect.com) Received: (qmail 5882 invoked by uid 1001); 30 May 2000 17:22:13 -0000 Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 12:22:13 -0500 From: David McNett To: Nathan Vidican Cc: Nils Holland , questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Letting normal users halt the system Message-ID: <20000530122213.A5568@avatar.hfdirect.com> References: <3933F56E.82B51937@wmptl.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i In-Reply-To: <3933F56E.82B51937@wmptl.com>; from webmaster@wmptl.com on Tue, May 30, 2000 at 01:07:58PM -0400 X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386 X-Distributed: Join the Effort! http://www.distributed.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 30-May-2000, Nathan Vidican wrote: > Alternately then, you could create a new group, (eg shutusers), and > re-chown /sbin/shutdown to root:shutusers, then chmod 750.

I'd recommend that the original poster look into implementing sudo, which is a package designed for just this type of activity. Sudo is a program designed to allow a sysadmin to give limited root privileges to users and log root activity. The basic philosophy is to give as few privileges as possible but still allow people to get their work done. With it, you can allow specific users or groups (as in the "shutusers" example Nathan suggested) access to specific actions or commands. An extra benefit of using sudo is that you will get logging of who ran the shutdown, and when. sudo is, of course, in ports. /usr/ports/security/sudo/ More info at http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 10:23: 2 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imo-d05.mx.aol.com (imo-d05.mx.aol.com [205.188.157.37]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B30DC37BB94 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 10:22:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Master9116@aol.com) Received: from Master9116@aol.com by imo-d05.mx.aol.com (mail_out_v27.9.) id n.69.59e122c (3971) for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 13:20:09 -0400 (EDT) From: Master9116@aol.com Message-ID: <69.59e122c.26655249@aol.com> Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 13:20:09 EDT Subject: Re: network To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: AOL 5.0 for Windows sub 104 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In a message dated 5/29/00 10:48:37 PM Pacific Daylight Time, joel@tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph writes: > Hi, > I've installed a 4.0-stable of freebsd on my P 166 32 MB machine with a > Realtek 8029 NIC.

The solution here is obvious - configure the card and the kernel for a different irq. Some motherboard require changing the BIOS as well to indicate that the irq is being used for a 'legacy ISA device'. The second common cause is a problem with the network connection itself. You might want to check and make sure that your termination is installed properly and working and that the cable segments are all good. It could be marginal in a way that the 3c509 works while the ed0 device doesn't. -DG David Greenman Co-founder, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.

On coming to work in the morning two of our FreeBSD machines were down two others we up. On the ones that were down the file '/kernel' was missing. Getting them back up was no problem since there were /kernel.old files still available. (Re-compiling the kernel was no problem. Everything is fine now.) Have other people reported similar problems? Are there any steps that I can take to reduce the likelihood of this sort of event occurring in the future? Any idea why a /kernel file should simply be gone? For what it's worth, the two (Debian) Linux boxes we use came through unscathed. Ralph P.

Now that I've added ADSL I've been having problems. NAT from the cable connection still works, but when using it on the tun interface it dumps core. Strange enough, it works *sometimes*, seemingly randomly. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong, whether it's a bug in natd, whether it has to do with my Cyrix P166+ CPU or something else.

Why not try using some utility like kdm, > (KDE's X-Windows login app), as a replacement for Login: ? I think, from the other information I've received, sudo is the better solution. I will get it and set it up right away. I'm not using kdm (or something) because I like the normel text console more. Although users could access the console using xterm under X11, I still like the sudo-suggestion more.

As I understand there should be an installetion file which takes all files from the web site to a directory wich I point out on my hard drive and then I have to restart computer and run installetion. But when I go to ftp://ftp3.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD, server could not be found . If I do something wrong tell me or if it is problem with the site tell me what to do to get FreeBSD . Thank you in advance. Oleg.

It's Intel's brainchild, but it seems to be catching on. Right now Intel and 3Com are adapting PXE technology on some of their cards, I'm sure that more will follow. I've been wrong about these thing before, but I suspect that PXE is here to stay, it seems to be an acceptable, generic replacement for boot roms. FYI: A quick search at Intel's site for PXE will yield plenty of reading material.

You can use .shost files after ssh'ing from each box to the other: HOWEVER... A better thing to do for network backups in most circumstances is to use amanda. remote root access is not required. Has lots of advantages for network wide backups over dump/pax/cpio/etc. look in the ports section for a better description. --- David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 12:50: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from milquetoast.cs.mcgill.ca (milquetoast.CS.McGill.CA [132.206.2.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E308C37B552 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 12:49:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mat@milquetoast.cs.mcgill.ca) Received: (from mat@localhost) by milquetoast.cs.mcgill.ca (8.9.3/8.9.3) id PAA09654; Tue, 30 May 2000 15:49:47 -0400 (EDT) Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 15:49:47 -0400 From: Mathew Kanner To: Gabriel Ambuehl Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD Diskless Message-ID: <20000530154947.C28012@cs.mcgill.ca> References: <14416104737.20000530212228@buz.ch> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i In-Reply-To: Gabriel Ambuehl's message [Re[2]: FreeBSD Diskless] as of Tue, May 30, 2000 at 09:22:28PM +0200 Organization: SOCS, McGill University, Montreal, CANADA Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On May 30, Gabriel Ambuehl wrote: > > I think that PXE is probably worth a try.

Will do some research on it. You can get PXE boot proms for quite a few cards. "www.bootix.com" seems to make quite a few. The only problem is that they proms cost an arm and a leg. The PXE proms from 3com are only about $17can, which isn't that bad. > Best regards, > Gabriel --Mat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 12:59: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.root-servers.ch (alpha.root-servers.ch [195.49.62.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C372437B5CB for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 12:59:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gabriel_ambuehl@buz.ch) Received: (qmail 5376 invoked from network); 30 May 2000 20:00:52 -0000 Received: from client99-59.hispeed.ch (62.2.99.59) by ns1.root-servers.ch with SMTP; 30 May 2000 20:00:52 -0000 Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 22:00:14 +0200 From: Gabriel Ambuehl X-Mailer: The Bat!

In previous releases (3.4-RELEASE and earlier), most distfiles were present on the CD Set. Are we now supposed to download package-sources directly off the 'Net? The 4.0 CDs are not produced by Walnut Creek but by BSD, Inc. Is this an "official" distribution? The small printed booklet still points to orders@cdrom.com and the CDs look exactly the same in design as Walnut-Creek FreeBSD CDs. How can I check, that these CD-ROMs are trustworthy? MD5-Checksums??? What's going on here? Can other FreeBSD-4.0 RELEASE users confirm, that the distfiles are really missing on the "official" CDs? Are the distfiles for the 4.0-RELEASE ports available on CD-ROM at all? (Which CD-ROM and where please?) Thank you for your help. -Farid. -- Farid Hajji Broicherdorfstr. 83, D-41564 Kaarst, Germany Phone: +49-2131-67-555, E-Mail: farid.hajji@ob.kamp.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 13:45:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web2104.mail.yahoo.com (web2104.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.68.248]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C3CB137BE5C for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 13:45:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from allenklu@yahoo.com) Received: (qmail 17231 invoked by uid 60001); 30 May 2000 20:45:51 -0000 Message-ID: <20000530204551.17230.qmail@web2104.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [216.102.221.227] by web2104.mail.yahoo.com; Tue, 30 May 2000 13:45:51 PDT Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 13:45:51 -0700 (PDT) From: Allen Lu Subject: Re: 4.0 - Release To: Lowell Gilbert Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --- Lowell Gilbert wrote: > Allen Lu writes: > > > Hi I have been seeing this error on two different hardware.

Well, in my case i get a bunch of these errors on my screen (and in log) and the kernel actually panics and says dump core. It then reboots.

The windows driver claims this is an Intel 21143/2 based 10/100 mbps Ethernet Controller, but I don't think it's even getting to the point of talking to the card; please see below. The card was inserted into the machine with the power off, so it shouldn't be a matter of detecting an insertion "on the fly". Using a 4.0 snap from 3/29/2000, I installed and turned on pccardd in /etc/rc.conf, and pointed it at /etc/pccard.conf.sample to use as a config file. Upon boot, I see (transcribed by hand, typos are mine): pcic0: at port 0xe30 iomem 0xd0000 irq 10 on isa0 pcic0: management irq 10 pccard0: on pcic0 pccard1: on pcic0 If I execute ``pccardc dumpcis'' it lists two slots, and claims both have terminators with length = 0. At boot time when pccardd starts, I get a message: pccardd[44]: No card in database for ""("") Interesting that there is only one physical slot on the machine, but that may be an architectural nuance or something. The card appears to be fine; it functions normally under windows. I am pretty much a neophyte when it comes to pccard stuff; if anyone has any hints or suggestions, or if there is further information which would be useful, please let me know. I can get a different card if need be, and can also install -current if need be, but the symptoms here almost seem to indicate that there is a problem talking to the PCMCIA controller itself which doesn't sound hopeful. I did search the FAQ, handbook, and the mailing lists with no particular luck, so any help would be most welcome. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 14:28:40 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gekko.i-clue.de (server.ms-agentur.de [62.153.134.194]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BF1FE37BC51 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 14:28:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from so@server.i-clue.de) Received: from i-clue.de (automatix.i-clue.de [192.168.0.112]) by gekko.i-clue.de (8.9.3/8.9.3/SuSE Linux 8.9.3-0.1) with ESMTP id BAA18519; Wed, 31 May 2000 01:31:17 +0200 Message-ID: <393432AF.A4C76FE@i-clue.de> Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 23:29:19 +0200 From: Christoph Sold Organization: i-clue interactive GmbH X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: JohnMannion@aol.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Fwd: Installation References: <39.5b92344.2665854c@aol.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG AFAIK, parallel port drives are not suppported in FreeBSD for some good reasons.

Dear Friends, I've downloaded the entire 4.0-install.iso (from ftp.freesoftware.com) & burned my cdrom. This night I do my installation in place of a 3.4 stable. Maybe I mistake in the masterizing but all the 4.x Netscapes (for FreeBSD) give me abort in install phase (in /stand/sysinstall). Just the good old Netscape 3.4 seems to install properly. Anyone has build a cdrom from that image? Pine installs himself but libssl.so.1 is missing (bad check dependencies?); Vim5.x it's only in ports and mutt also (the make build fail, it seems to want a connection with a ftp site for fetching the packages). If I want may install every flavor of Emacs or other mail clients. Vim & Mutt is not immediately available. It's a regular thing or maybe I had a bad masterizing?

What do you suggest? I would suggest that you have more or less proven that /dev/cuaa1 is connected to your mouse. At a wild guess, I'd suggest that your modem might be /dev/cuaa0. I'd also suggest that if you're trying to find out about modems in my book, you should read the chapter on modems. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

It seems you experienced fdisk reporting the fact. To fix the problem, you have to change your disk layout: there should be at least some room for the root file system within the first two Gigs of your disk,. something like this: slice 0 (Dos partition 1) 1G Winblows slice 1 (Dos partition 2) 1G FreeBSD root slice 2 (Dos partition 3) some more room for FreeBSD slice 3 (Dos partition 4) extended DOS partition for Winblows alternatively, add another small disk, and install FreeBSD there. Unlike Winblows, FreeBSD boots happily from any disk on your system, given itrs root partition is to be found within the first two Gig.

This looks like a job for the kernel maxusers option. :) Check out the section of the handbook regarding recompiling your kernel (if you have not already). It's a fairly simple process. On a busy web/proxy server a rough rule of thumb is that you can use roughly the number of maxusers that you have megabytes of ram. So, if you have 128 megs of ram, set maxusers accordingly. If the server is so busy that you were having disk IO problems, I'd get anywhere from 512M to 1G of ram, and set maxusers to 512.

My off-and-on reading of the threads confirms your suspicion: no distfiles are on the CDs. I think the deal is that there's not enough space on the CDs to add all the distfiles.

Okay, I'll just order it now, but let's hope that there will be soon another way to get the distfiles on the regular cd-rom set. After all, FreeBSD's policy has always been to come with full sources, and that includes IMHO the sources of the packages too (as far as possible due to copyright restrictions). Considering the excellent nature of the /usr/ports system, it would have probably been much better to include the distfiles of all ports on the cd-roms, plus some binary packages that are extremely popular. sysinstall could have been expanded, so that (less requested) packages can be compiled from the distfiles. Isn't it always better to provide sources and an (automatic) way to compile them, than just binaries _w/o_ sources? > > Thank you for your help. > You're welcome. Yes, I'm missing the distfiles, too. Modems at home are > not helpful for getting distfiles, remote locations don't help, too. > Maybe BSDi thinks about another scheme to get the distfiles to the > people. Yes, that's the way I see it too. The main reason for buying the CD-ROMs is (besides helping WalnutCreek a.k.a. BSDI) saving the bandwidth and time required to fetch sources via modems. BSDI should really find a way to include the distfiles on the regular -RELEASE (and maybe -SNAP) CDs (be it by moving to a 6 CD-Case or replacing less used packages into distfiles, that can be compiled via sysinstall or manually from /usr/ports)! Maybe other subscribers could write independently to BSDI, to help them make their mind to distribute the distfiles along with the regular CDs. Even users with enough bandwidth can help keeping FreeBSD and associated software free. > -Christoph Sold Thank you very much to all who answered. -Farid. -- Farid Hajji Broicherdorfstr. 83, D-41564 Kaarst, Germany Phone: +49-2131-67-555, E-Mail: farid.hajji@ob.kamp.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 18:45:18 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from theo.namodn.com (anyhosting.com [209.0.100.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9E41237B7A0 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 18:45:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from robert@theo.namodn.com) Received: (from robert@localhost) by theo.namodn.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id SAA02729; Tue, 30 May 2000 18:57:05 -0700 Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 18:57:05 -0700 From: Rob To: Theo Bell Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Netscape...

Any other ideas? > Thanks..... Read about pppctl. Then add a local domain socket to your ppp.conf. Then, all you have to do is tell it to close. You can setup shell scripts to do the commands. I even have one for "quit all" which shuts ppp down nicely.

BSDI) to include the distfiles on their next regular FreeBSD-4.X CDs? AFAIK, they were dropped from the 4 CD-Set in favor of binary packages due to lack of space [sic!]. This seems to violently contradict with FreeBSD's policy to keep everything with sources, and this includes IMHO sources for packages as far as this doesn't infringe someone's copyright. I know that this is not really a FreeBSD issue, but that it rather concerns one specific CD-ROM vendor (the distfiles are still available on the 'net). Nonetheless, dropping the sources from one of the main distribution media (and the only one for countless modem users with slow bandwidth, possibly expensive, connections) _doesn't_ help neighther the FreeBSD-Community nor prospective new users. Wouldn't it be possible to team up with as much FreeBSD users as possible, to convince Walnut-Creek to put the distfiles back on their regular FreeBSD-CDs? As far as FreeBSD remains free software (I hope so), we are not bound to one CD-ROM vendor alone. It may be helpful to include pointers to other vendors (preferably vendors that are commited to providing complete sources of everyting as far as possible) on the FAQ, Handbook and especially on the freebsd.org website. Sorry, if this was a FAQ or if the pertinent informations were available elsewhere. I'm just really disappointed with my new FreeBSD-4.0 RELEASE CD-Set from WC/BSDi that I bought, expecting to find the new distfiles there too (what would be the point else?). I always had extremely good experiences with FreeBSD and I'm really sad, that the policy of a single company can harm the good reputation of an otherwise excellent operating system.

I consider it a bug, but it doesn't do much harm. If you do 'umount /dumps', it will remove one of the mounts. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

My suggestion is that you backup the user stuff you care about(and are pretty sure that ain't hacked), and reinstall. Even if you believe you have gotten everything, there is always that question.

I have a seperate partition for /var/mail, upon which I have quotas enabled. User X is over their hard quota, but can still receive incoming email. Not only that, but user X can cat a small file (of a couple of dozen bytes) onto the end of the mailbox, no problems. However, using perl, vi etc user cannot append to their mailbox. I have checked quotas are enabled, and indeed, if user X trys to cat a large file onto the end of the mailbox (or use perl, vi etc to append) it presents an error about being over the quota. Anyone have any ideas? My design was to enable me to set a maximum quota for any given users incoming mail, but the sidetrack issue of being able to cat small files to the end of the box has me stumped.

Here is my config: MACHINE A: ifconfig_de0="inet 207.114.198.11 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="207.114.198.250" # -- Add Vhosts -- # ifconfig_de0_alias1="inet 206.88.228.13 netmask 0xffffffff" ifconfig_de0_alias1="inet 206.88.228.14 netmask 0xffffffff" ifconfig_de0_alias1="inet 206.88.228.15 netmask 0xffffffff" ifconfig_de0_alias2="inet 199.29.143.73 netmask 0xffffffff" ======== If I only run on the primary interface, then all is fine, but if I enable the aliases which are on different subnets then the trouble begins. If I try and fire up sendmail, it just hangs and starts giving me RPC timeouts on the console from yp, as it doesn't like that the aliases are in a different subnet from the main ip range mounted on the machine. I can mount more from the main subnet, but not from anything else. I need multiple subnets on the machine, so thats the problem. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this, is there some way to tell yp to only use the primary interface for requests? Or if I am doing something wrong here please let me know as I am somewhat new to NIS.. --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 23: 0:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net (scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.49]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AF84237B5F8 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 23:00:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from calebwalker@netzero.net) Received: from netzero.net (1Cust108.tnt16.lax3.da.uu.net [63.23.97.108]) by scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id XAA18191 for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 23:00:16 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <3934A9AF.F453E2F3@netzero.net> Date: Tue, 30 May 2000 22:57:04 -0700 From: Caleb Walker Organization: PowerCom Energy & Communications X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: lpr Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is my printcap.

I have two multi-boot systems with "/", which is a 100MB partition, as a members of 13GB+ FreeBSD slices. One slice is located just above a 2GB FAT16 and and followed by a 5GB NTFS extended. The other system is located above a 2GB FAT and a 3GB NTFS extended partition. Both work just fine. With LBA turned on, cylinder 1024 is just above 8.4GB. The FreeBSD slices extend well over the 8.4GB region on the UDMA66 drives. The system with FreeBSD located after the extended partition will still boot NT4 but the first system won't.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I've done this in the past has been to specify the "real" netmask for the first alias in each extra subnet, and 255.255.255.255 for all other aliases. Otherwise the machine has little chance of interacting normally with broadcast traffic on the extra subnets... __ David Burren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 30 23:57:50 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph (tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph [203.176.27.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 17ECA37B73F for ; Tue, 30 May 2000 23:57:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from joel@tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph) Received: from localhost (joel@localhost) by tilapia.pang.pworld.net.ph (8.10.0/8.10.0) with SMTP id e4V6oRC15905 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 14:50:30 +0800 Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 06:50:27 +0000 ( ) From: Joel Eusebio To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: RE: natd Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I've been using ipchains in linux for quite sometime and since I'm shifting to FreeBSD I just want to ask if FreeBSD has a ipchain counterpart.

I had found this recommendation in the archives (so now I think it was from you ;-) ). But it looked like weird to me that such a modification had to be made for a basic FreeBSD installation. Furthermore, my current installation (3.3 Stable) works correctly with the same xdm-config file. I do not understand this authorization configuration therefore I am not vey enthusiastic in unsetting a default configuration in a FreeBSD installation. I thought that my problem was more about an hostname resolution topic or whatever! You (or someone else) may explain to me why this modification is require and what is the impact. Why do I have this behavior and why this is not the default? Thank you very much! Phil.

I make the CDs. :-) And the reason I have dropped the distfiles is that there's simply not enough room to include a meaningful number of them vs the meaningful number of packages, which include only the components necessary for installed software and are much smaller on average. You may not like the math, but there's no arguing with it. Packages are also the most frequently requested items, not distfiles, since the majority of FreeBSD's users actually prefer to have their software pre-compiled and you are actually in the minority. Since I have only 4 CDs's worth of space to work with, I produce the releases for the majority and that's why packages have replaced distfiles. I'm only doing what the majority of our customers have requested. If you want distfiles, those are part of the 4.0 FreeBSD Toolkit CD set which is 6 CDs in size and contains almost every distfile you can imagine. It's an increasing challenge to fit an expanding system (and ports collection) on 4 CDs and the creation of another 6 CD set was very necessary. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 2: 1:58 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from moutvdom00.kundenserver.de (moutvdom00.kundenserver.de [195.20.224.149]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8D2E537B50E for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 02:01:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from duz@onlinehome.de) Received: from [195.20.224.204] (helo=mrvdom00.kundenserver.de) by moutvdom00.kundenserver.de with esmtp (Exim 2.12 #2) id 12x4Ns-0005jw-00 for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:01:52 +0200 Received: from a3360.pppool.de ([213.6.51.96] helo=onlinehome.de) by mrvdom00.kundenserver.de with esmtp (Exim 2.12 #2) id 12x4No-0008Jd-00 for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:01:48 +0200 Message-ID: <39362619.D6A1ECEE@onlinehome.de> Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 11:00:09 +0200 From: Dirk Zoller Organization: none X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: microuptime went backwards on Athlon Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, yesterday I changed my mainboard/CPU to an EPOX 7KXA and an Athlon 700. Before I had an K6-2/450 and few problems (at least not the following). Now I see the system going nuts with zillions of messages "microuptime went backwards" in the syslog. Actually the system becomes unusable because it is so busy writing these messages. At the same time the clock moves rapidly forward. Within a few minutes the output of the date command advances by several hours. I'm not sure when this happens but it seems to be start when the system is under load of a big compile job. I.e. I can use it for hours with editing tasks but when I start to compile stuff -- not the first time but after a while -- the problem begins. I also observed the problem when using gzip on a very large file.

I have 256 MB RAM but otherwise no fancy stuff (one IDE drive, an old RIVA-128 graphics card). I don't think it is a thermal problem because I have a good cooler and the BIOS reports temperatures under 40 degree Celsius. Also I reduced the system clock to see if that helps. It didn't. I would be grateful for any hint, as I'd neither like to downgrade my hardware nor my operating system. -- Dirk Zoller Fon: 06106-876566 Obere Marktstraße 5 e-mail: duz@sol-3.de 63110 Rodgau To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 2:21:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news.uni-kl.de (news.uni-kl.de [131.246.137.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id AC20937B609 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 02:21:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from holger@eit.uni-kl.de) Received: from postamt.eit.uni-kl.de ( postamt.eit.uni-kl.de [131.246.73.100] ) by news.uni-kl.de id aa26829 for ; 31 May 2000 11:21 MESZ Received: from ernie.eit.uni-kl.de (root@fs.eit.uni-kl.de [131.246.12.176]) by postamt.eit.uni-kl.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA12435 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:21:39 +0200 Received: from ernie.eit.uni-kl.de (holger@ernie.eit.uni-kl.de [131.246.12.176]) by ernie.eit.uni-kl.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA31375 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:26:06 +0200 Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 11:26:05 +0200 (MEST) From: Holger Lamm To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: microuptime went backwards on Athlon In-Reply-To: <39362619.D6A1ECEE@onlinehome.de> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 1 Jun 2000, Dirk Zoller wrote: ^^^^^^^^^^ future seems not bright today.. :-) > Now I see the system going nuts with zillions of messages "microuptime > went backwards" in the syslog.

Hmm, I get these messages from time to time, in packets of 4-6, and on both systems: The first is a K6-2/400, board Asus P5A, running 4.0-STABLE, the other is a 166 MHz Alpha (AXPpci33) under 5.0-CURRENT. > At the same time the clock moves rapidly forward.

Your right, and that is a typo in the example I made, my actual config is right. Actually I have made that mistake in real life before, and what happens is you get the IP of the last one mounted, and the others all disappear. Basically I am trying to figure out how to make NIS work on a host where I have multiple subnets mounted for Vhosting, but in reality I only want the NIS functions/querys to run across the primary interface.. --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 4:46: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gwdu60.gwdg.de (gwdu60.gwdg.de [134.76.10.60]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5724137B82D for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 04:45:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de) Received: from localhost (kheuer@localhost) by gwdu60.gwdg.de (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id NAA76191; Wed, 31 May 2000 13:45:45 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de) Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 13:45:44 +0200 (CEST) From: Konrad Heuer To: Constantinos Boukouvalas Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD 3.3 Question In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=X-UNKNOWN Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 30 May 2000, Constantinos Boukouvalas wrote: > We are trying to setup in our lab a software package (specifically > the NIST MPLS switch) which runs only on FreeBSD 3.3.

I've just started getting "bad blocks" cropping up on a newish drive (it's a 34gb IBM IDE drive - <6 months old), I also, very recently upgraded from 3.4-stable to 4.0-release. [More info at end] I very rarely boot to DOS/Windows and mainly use the DOS partition from FreeBSD... some bad blocks appeared tody when DOS failed to boot and DOS scandisk seems to think they're bad. ( I thought they were remapped by the drive - and if they show up at all, then it's a really dead disk with a lot of bad blocks ? ) Although, is it possible that FreeBSD has written something wrong into the DOS partition which has caused DOS to think that there is something wrong with the disk and mark the sectors/clusters/blocks of disk bad - even if they're not. Or, has DOS just confused itself... Or, sad case, does the following give unmistakable proof that I should invest in a new disk ( and try and get a refund on this one ? unlikely! ) (Normally I'd replace any disk as soon as it starts developing bad blocks, but in this case I'm a bit concerned that there may be another solution.)

The hard drive is 12GB. Due to there being a previous installation of WIN98+NT, I was forced to install beyond cylinder 1024. After installation, the boot manager is unable to boot the FBSD partition. How can I boot using fbsdboot? I've tried using the kernel from the install CD, and the kernel from the installed root filesystem, but it complains about bad format (of the kernel, I'd guess). The root device's node is /dev/ad03a. The primary DOS partition's node is /dev/ad01a. Please help - I'm now forced to use a solution such as VMWare, which is less than optimal (to say the least :) ).

Greg has it to the point: Use the tool that solves the job, not a side effect which reminds you of your problems. OTOH, in FreeBSD 3.x, the wd IDE driver had problems with partitions greater than 8GB. For FreeBSD 4.x some mails report problems with the ad IDE driver at about 32GB. YMMV. I do not know any such problem for SCSI disks.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I've done this in the past has been to specify the "real" netmask for the first alias in each extra subnet, and 255.255.255.255 for all other aliases. Otherwise the machine has little chance of interacting normally with broadcast traffic on the extra subnets... __ David Burren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 5:35:29 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl [131.155.56.216]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1BF8B37B86F for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 05:35:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from karelj@wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl) Received: (from karelj@localhost) by wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id OAA00967; Wed, 31 May 2000 14:35:19 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from karelj) Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 14:35:19 +0200 From: "Karel J.

The port should take care of this sort of problems. There seems to be no precompiled package, I assume that's because the port asks for questions (is interactive). I'm using the teTeX distribution (also in the ports collection), which includes dvips and it is working very well. Karel.

You don't. FreeBSD wants to be installed onto any IBM PeeCee compatible featuring any 386 or better with at least 16MB RAM. To do so, you have to sit at the box.

A few more minutes looking over the code haven't given me any more clues about the situation. This is the sort of place where synchronization problems can happen in an SMP system, but the protections (locks) against that appear perfectly adequate in my (somewhat superficial) check. It probably *would* be best if you updated to -STABLE before reporting this as a problem, though. Be well.

On the other hand, how about a more timely release of distfiles-only CD-ROMs? The source repositories can hop over to snapshot CDs, I personally use CVSup to get the source.

My /etc/ppp/ppp.conf script pretty much looks like the default example script, modified to include my ISP login details. If I run ppp -backgound , then the PPP connection fails. A brief examination of /var/log/ppp.log implies that the initial outgoing LCP config-req is generated and sent, but no reply is received from the ISP. I don't buy this - the ISP connection works fine with my Windows box. And so... (i) Any ideas? (ii) Can anyone tell me how to get tcpdump to look at the bpf tun thing, so I can actually monitor the packet flow? ..and.. (iii) The PPP link actually _worked_ at some point in the past, but I didn't save the config script (doh!). I'm pretty sure its the same as it is now, except for one (possibly crucial) difference: Since PPP worked, I installed an ethernet NIC, and configured the i/f IP address of the NIC as 10.0.0.1. Because of this, I changed the default 'dummy' PPP local tun address from 10.0.0.1 to 11.0.0.1. (The original PPP 10.0.0.1 address comes from the example ppp.conf file). As ever, any help gratefully received.

All you need to do is make sure for instance that you have the following line uncommented in /etc/inetd.conf ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l -l (note the two -l's at the end for extra logging). Then just make sure that inetd is running and you'll have an FTP service. :) Try man ftpd for more information. If you don't want to use the standard FTPd, then look at some of the FTPd in the ports section or at NcFTPd (www.ncftpd.com).

I make the CDs. :-) I'm sorry that my critique was so harsh, but it seemed to me, that the decision to drop the distfiles was due to a company (BSDi) with commercial interests that may collide with the open source philosophy of FreeBSD, and I didn't know that this was actually "official" policy of -CORE. I just remember too well, how Sun dropped their C-Compiler from Solaris with the argument, that just a minority of users needed a compiler, and the hard time we had before there was a widely available port of GCC on that platform. The same scenario seemed to repeat itself with FreeBSD (CDs). I perfectly understand the space restrictions and I'm actually very impressed by the way, you managed to fit so many packages on just 4 CDs. But have you considered the following arguments? 1. Some packages are derived from GPLed sources and dropping their distfiles may not be in the spirit of the GPL. The GPL states, that it is enough to provide pointers to the sources, so that it is not necessary to include them physically on the distribution media, as long as they can be fetched off the 'Net or through other freely accessible channels. It is nonetheless sensible to provide at least the distfiles for GPLed packages (IMHO). 2. Most Linux-Distributions come with full sources or at least a substantial amount of sources, and that includes sources for everything, including what we know as packages. It can't be right, that those distributions are now much more open source compliant than FreeBSD-RELEASE! I'm actually fetching some of the missing "distfiles" from a Linux-CD and I can imagine how many other FreeBSD users are doing the same. It's a shame that we're getting dependant on Linux distributions to get at the sources. Referring to the Toolkit is okay, but the fact that it is now necessary to buy it in addition to or instead of the offical FreeBSD CDs has to get much more publicity. 3. It is certainly difficult to find space for gzipped distfiles that are on the average bigger than gzipped binaries. A small amount of space may be saved by bzip2-ing them instead but that only delays the space problem somewhat. More substantial savings could be probably achieved by considering the fact that many internationalized packages (like ja-*, ko-*, ...) derive from common sources. A set of patches (a.k.a. a port) may have been very economical in such cases (?). 4. I can't imagine that every package is equally popular. They are certainly many less required packages that could have been delivered as distfiles instead of precompiled binaries. The overhead of compiling them may be acceptable to concerned users. To make things go as smoothly as possible, sysinstall could be expanded in such a way, that missing binaries could be automacially compiled from the distfiles, thus making the installation of ports as transparent to normal users as possible, retaining the open source philosophy, at the cost of slightly increased installation time. 5. I agree with you, that sources of 3rd party packages are only needed by a minority of users. However, many users that are actually developing or enhancing/modifying software would not have done so without the sources being _easily_ available_. Even some users, that were not primarily interested in sources, were curious enough and had a look, just to find out, that they could too contribute to the free software community. This is the way Linux works and we're giving too much potential away, by deciding to put the sources on a separate CD-Set like the Toolkit (which is by the way excellent!). Is it really worth leaving the sources out of the main distribution, just to speed-up the installation as much as possible and to include a few more "exotic" binaries? I sincerely hope that there will be a way to get most distfiles back on the regular FreeBSD CDs someday. In the meantime, we should make it very clear to every user that the Toolkit _is_ actually needed and that it should be considered integral part of FreeBSD (-RELEASE & -SNAP).

I installed it in my dedicated Internet router box (a Compaq Deskpro 4/66 with an external USR I-Modem, running FreeBSD 3.4 with "flags 0x20000" compiled into the kernel "sio" lines). I have the first port on the SIIG card set pro COM1 (port 3f8, IRQ 4) and the second port is disabled. Now comes the question part: Every time I try setting the card to 230400 baud the modem won't hook up through ppp. If i use minicom (a terminal program) to talk to the modem at 230400 the modem thinks i am at 19200. If I set minicom for 115200 (leaving the SIIG card at 230400) then the modem thinks I am at 230400!?! That would be fine with me if ppp worked like this but if I set ppp for 115200 and leave the SIIG card at 230400 the modem won't dial, or it won't detect carrier (take your pick). I have trolled the newsgroups and mailing lists looking for answers, and it looks like some of you out there are using this card, but I haven't been able to find anything specific to my problem. Any thoughts?

On a single 20 GB h/d, I am unable, when installing from scratch, to select in the partition editor a slice for example of 12 GB for /usr. I would really like to know just how to be able to get this done without the message from the partition editor saying "size too big". Thus causing me to make a bunch of partions as is shown: lnb@heretic:~$ df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a 99063 26991 64147 30% / /dev/ad0s4g 2032623 1574956 295058 84% /data /dev/ad0s4e 2480982 153064 2129440 7% /home /dev/ad0s4h 6076005 2722946 2866979 49% /shared /dev/ad0s3g 353023 1755 323027 1% /tmp /dev/ad0s3e 5081581 1377594 3297461 29% /usr /dev/ad0s4f 2032623 1 1870013 0% /usr/ftp /dev/ad0s3f 1016303 5486 929513 1% /var procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc It their is a way to accomplish this, please, by all means tell me what must be done. I wonder what good reason there is for limitations on the size of each slice when the installer shows the amount of space left, yet you cannot use it in total. From a business perspective, if this drive was used for just data besides the OS installed I would have a small /usr and swap with tmp and var symlinked and all of the remaining space allocated to /data presumably for a multitude of users accessing and writing to what ever was permitted under /data.

In what situations would I need > to know the actual netmask? Offhand, I don't think you'll ever need the netmask for sending packets to the customer's machine. Where you'll probably need it is for determining whether a given packet was intended for a "local" service (in which case you'll need to simulate it) or not (in which case you'll need to proxy -- or at least address-translate -- for it). If you can figure out what a machine thinks its router's address is, that will help. If anybody's ideas of their network overlaps with anyone else's (or, Heaven Forbid, yours), life is going to get unpleasant rapidly. I think you will be finding yourself going down a rathole rather quickly with this whole concept, by the way. Each type of service the customers want will have to be handled separately, or refused entirely. Surfing the web may work with the approach you described, but sending and receiving e-mail, for example, won't. [Sending e-mail is something you could detect -- they probably use a "smarthost," and you'd have to guess that and spoof it to them -- but receiving it, obviously, is probably impossible anyway. If they can't receive their e-mail, they may not care...] For printing, I'll bet you're going to have to get into NATing for SMB networking, probably in a bridged environment back to the same wire, and that thought makes me cringe in horror. > I'm not sure how I feel about ignoring the netmask, so any ideas would be > appreciated. Well, you can ignore it until you're forced to do otherwise. I think you *really* need to better define your problem, though: you need a list of services that you're going to make work, and an understanding that no one will complain about anything else failing to work. If you don't get that, I'll pretty much guarantee you're going to look bad. I also think the list will have to be pretty short. Be well. -- P.S. In case it's not obvious, I think the whole thing is a terrible idea, and I hope no one else ever gets stuck having to implement this particular broken concept.

It wasn't obvious from the documentation that the disks too be used had to be formatted in any way, it turns out that they need to be setup as ffs (freebsd native) disks before they can be used for vinum. First install the disks and use the /stand/sysinstall utility to create new bsd (type 165) filesystems on them using the fdisk feature. I also checked them by mounting the disks once they were formatted. If you then run disklabel you will see that the disks are build something like this:: root@garlic#disklabel /dev/da1s1 8 partitions: >>>>>CUT<<<<< # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 8482257 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 527*) e: 8482257 0 4.2BSD # (Cyl. 0 - 527*) effectivly /dev/da1s1e is now a BSD partition. now you can use disklabel to change the fstype to be vinum. # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 8482257 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 527*) e: 8482257 0 vinum # (Cyl. 0 - 527*) Once this has been completed build the config (in this case a simple mirror) . See Greg's home page for the best examples. drive a device /dev/da0s1e drive b device /dev/da1s1e volume mirror plex org concat sd length 4140m drive a plex org concat sd length 4140m drive b Finally you will have to tell vinum to start the array, using the "start" command. This appears to be necessary only the first time around. From then on the array will start automatically. Best of luck.

Just be sure to get the brands you want installed... Seagate or Western Digital hard drives is what I look for and 3Com ethernet cards. Since sound and video really are not much of an issue for a server you do not have to worry much about those. If you have a problem with the video card, you can replace it with a very cheap generic card. If you want to run X windows, look at the compatibility listings. But if you can, avoid Compaq hardware if possible. I found that they use custom hardware which may cause problems. If you simply build your own, with the parts you want, you will be much happier. The last server I build I built over the phone with a tech at... http://www.aberdeeninc.com/ I told him what I wanted and that I was installing FreeBSD on it and needed specific hardware. We built it piece by piece and they assembled it at no cost. They then run it for 48 hours to ensure there are no flaws in the hardware and ship the box off to you. I was very pleased with their service and the quality of their work. I think I will use them again. Perhaps one of the best things I can say about them is the guy I talked to on the phone actually knew the hardware, unlike my experience with other places, including the local computer hardware chain.

Of course, it works fine with Windows, but on my FreeBSD boxes dhclient exits after sending out the message: "select: Invalid argument". The configuration of the network is often incomplete. I captured the packet from the SonicWALL server and see only one problem...the domain name is a null terminated string. But the RFC states that clients MUST accept null terminated ASCII strings even though server SHOULD not send them. So I'm very unsure that this is the problem. Unfortunately, the dhclient is stripped, so gdb is not very helpful. On other possible issue is that option 52 is included with a value of 3. Both the SNAME and FILE fields start with 255 which indicates the end of data. Any ideas on how to work around or fix this? It really is a pain on my laptop which moves between several nets on a regular basis. Thanks, R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

More along the lines of an example including functioning (or able to anyhow) configuration files. This is a topic I have struggled with now and then, but never really gotten down to figuring out. There's little documentation regarding example configurations that I've found. I did however find one article, (from http://freebsd.peon.net as someone from the list had referred me to), but the same complaint, not a good example of setup. Don't get me wrong, that tutorial was well written, and did help; I just didn't find the examples all that good. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 10:24:33 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mrs-2.smartworld.net (mrs-2.smartworld.net [216.70.64.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C2B3037BBF0 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 10:24:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dnormandin@freewwweb.com) Received: from odie (cust58.tnt1.dial.cal1.uunet.ca [209.167.219.58]) by mrs-2.smartworld.net (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with SMTP id NAA78797; Wed, 31 May 2000 13:22:46 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <000a01bfcb25$3a8e5c60$3adba7d1@odie> From: "Duke Normandin" To: "Kent Stewart" , "Jonathan Chen" Cc: Subject: Re: How to close a ppp connection?

Under QBASIC I'd use:- OUT(&H181,0) and under Visual C I use something like:- _outp(0x181,0) However under FreeBSD, although the function seems to exist to do this in /usr/include/machine/cpufunc.h, I get Bus Errors every time I try. fred.c looks like this:- #include #include main() { outb(0x181,0) } And compiles OKay. I'm assuming I'm missing something fairly fundamental here. I've done all my testing whilst logged in as 'root' on a 3.2-RELEASE box. (without the actusl card installed just yet). Any ideas?

When you say "didn't work", what exactly happened? Some error message? These things are important. :-) If all else fails, you could try the package. There should be a link on the URL you mentioned above. It may link to a package for the wrong version of FreeBSD though, but if you dig around you should be able to find a package for your version. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 11: 9:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net (snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.120.62]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 50B7437B8DF for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:09:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from prmoyer@mail.earthlink.net) Received: from mail.earthlink.net (ip149.wilmington3.de.pub-ip.psi.net [38.30.157.149]) by snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA10470; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:09:36 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200005311809.LAA10470@snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net> From: "Philip R.

First off, I wasn't able to build it succesfully without the crypto libraries, so be sure you edit your supfile to get the crypto stuff, too. Fortunately, I'm in the US.... At the bottom of the supfile is: # The easiest way to get the export-restricted code is to use the # "cvs-crypto" mega-collection. # cvs-crypto Uncommented the last line. Here's the process I used, which is culled from the /usr/src/UPDATING file: 1. cd /usr/src 2. make buildworld 3. cd /usr/src/sbin/mknod 4. make install 5. cd /usr/src/sys/modules 6. make install 7. cd /usr/src 8. make buildkernel KERNEL= 9. make installkernel KERNEL= 10. chflags noschg /kernel 11. mv /kernel /kernel.3_4 12. mv / /kernel 13. chflags schg /kernel 14. cp /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV /dev/MAKEDEV 15.

If you're using PCMCIA cards, the pccard.conf file will be /etc/defaults/pccard.conf rather than /etc/pccard.conf, and there's the usual tuning in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, but that shouldn't be too much trouble.

I could get a ether card in it and copy the FreeBSD distr. in a folder. But to actualy install it I need to somehow boot freebsd on it. Is there a way to launch the FreeBSD installer from withing DOS or a similar way? any suggestions greatly appreciated. slava To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 11:18: 4 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.bfm.org (mail.bfm.org [216.127.218.26]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6D89E37B8DF for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 11:17:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Ryugen@palaver.org) Received: from primo.bfm.org ([216.127.218.20]) by mail.bfm.org (Post.Office MTA v3.5.3 release 223 ID# 0-52399U2500L250S0V35) with SMTP id org for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 13:18:50 -0500 Received: from porta-pad.palaver.org (unverified [24.217.51.231]) by primo.bfm.org (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Wed, 31 May 2000 13:17:45 -0500 Message-Id: <4.3.1.2.20000531131413.00a95cc0@mail.palaver.org> X-Sender: rfisher@mail.palaver.org X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 4.3.1 Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 13:17:39 -0500 To: "Doug Poland" From: Ryugen@palaver.org (Ryugen C.

I don't mind custimizing the software again (if there are incompatibilities), just as long as it works. I ask this because I recently read a post on the list by someone who said that he was planning on updating the Gnome in the ports collection to the new Gnome 1.2. On an unrelated note: has anyone had difficulties installing the newest sawmill from ports. I am on a windows box, so I can't get the actual error, but I think it was LISP related. This isn't too important though.

The GPL states, that it is enough That is incorrect and you simply need to read the GPL again a bit more closely. The GPL requires that you make this material available either by pointing the end-user at an FTP site containing the distribution sources or on some media at a reasonable price. The ftp.freesoftware.com FTP site contains the sources required and at no download fee, satisfying the requirements from one angle, and the toolkit CDROM set satisfies it from another. > 2. Most Linux-Distributions come with full sources or at least a substantial > amount of sources, and that includes sources for everything, including What the Linux distributions are doing is what the linux distributions are doing. FreeBSD does not slavishly follow everything that Linux does and if it did, it would simply be another Linux. I don't see how this point of comparison has merit. In any case, this is simply how things are and isn't likely to change until such time as DVDs become more popular or I'm allowed to increase the size of the default distribution set. Going to 6 CDs would give me the option of putting some distfiles on the same FreeBSD release collections, but the price would almost certainly have to be raised to cover the increased costs. Would you be willing to pay more for the product if that were the case? - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 14:33:36 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hindenburg.eboai.org (hindenburg.eboai.org [205.181.254.190]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1A51437B580 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 14:33:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from chip@chocobo.cx) Received: by hindenburg.eboai.org (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 5F6C33D5D; Wed, 31 May 2000 17:33:27 -0400 (EDT) Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 17:33:27 -0400 From: Chip Marshall To: Vernon Buck Jr Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: FreeBSD 3.4 stable Alt-Ctrl Fn KDE Message-ID: <20000531173327.A31645@setzer.chocobo.cx> Reply-To: chip@chocobo.cx References: <20000531212512.7322.qmail@nwcst285.netaddress.usa.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.1.4i In-Reply-To: <20000531212512.7322.qmail@nwcst285.netaddress.usa.net>; from vbuck@usa.net on Wed, May 31, 2000 at 04:25:12PM -0500 X-URL: http://www.chocobo.cx/chip/ X-OS: FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE i386 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On May 31, 2000, Vernon Buck Jr sent me the following: > When I Alt-Ctrl Fn to another screen, then when I Alt Fn back to my X-Window > session I am no longer in GUI mode.

As such, a port is usually very small, but requires that the source to be downloaded seperately. A package is the end results of the port (a "make package" command in the port directory will generate the package). No compiling is necessary, you usually just install the package and use it. Packages seldom come with source. Packages have the advantage that there is only one download, and don't need to be compiled, which is an advantage on slower machines. Ports have the advantage that they are smaller, so you can easily download all the ports quickly, whereas downloading the packages might take much more work. There is also software that can't be precompiled for you due to licensing restrictions, so a package would be impossible. They also have the advantage that if you are just a little bit of a programmer, you can modify the options of the software, update the port to a more recent version, even if the port maintainer hasn't updated yet, etc. Personally, I use ports almost every time, because I like seeing what knobs the software has. For example, the OpenSSL port/package comes in two varieties, one for US residents that uses RSAREF, one for non-US residents that gets RSA from OpenSSL itself. Well, in a commercial environment within the US, there are times that neither of these is acceptable, so I make a minor (1 line in the make file, removed a line from the PLIST file) change to the port that created a version of OpenSSL that didn't have RSA at all, and then made a package of that. While OpenSSL quite easily allows for that, the distributed port/package didn't have that as an option. Similarly, many ports of utilities are set up to use all the features of the software, pulling in tcl or python, when those enable features I'm not interested in. You can't modify the package to not pull that stuff in, since it's pre-compiled, but you can modify the port to do so. On the other hand, I can definitely see where someone that isn't familiar with makefiles and tracking down compile problems might prefer packages over ports.

And I ran some speed tests on it (ISP is Time Warner Road Runner service) and I got 570Kbits/sec upload and 1670Kbits/sec download which is pretty damn fast at these speeds you could dowmload a entire cdrom in less than an hour. Please no flames about linux!! It was a ton easier to configure my firewall because of dynamic addressing issues with linux. Also keep in mind that Roadrunner limits the bandwidth here in Rottenchester NY.

You do a ports cvsup and suddenly a new version is required in the ports. Right now the jadeTeX port is broken and I can't build it but I need it to make a local copy of the FreeBSD documents that I routinely cvsup. The package was built before the latest release and isn't broken. Everything else in the meta project docproj is a port but for right now, jadeTeX is a package. I'm happy because I can generate HTML and have the most recent copy without resorting to Internet access.

Unless they are doing filtering, or making decisions based on the source and/or destinations of the datagram, they should not need to decrement the TTL. Unless you can physically do a wire trace from the machine to router to switch (what a tedious task), I think I would be safe in stating this is impossible if this devices do not decrement the TTL. TTL: Time-To-Live. Simply, this is the maximum number of hops the datagram can be forwarded through. Traceroute works by sending out an inital packet with a TTL of 1, and the first hop (if it's not the destination) replies back with an ICMP TTL-exceeded message, and traceroute(8) prints out the host from which it received the ICMP message for the previously sent datagram. In conclusion, unless the devices decrement the TTL and respond to exceeded TTL counters with ICMP TTL-exceeded messages, they are invisible under a traceroute.

NO LUCK! my ports can't fetch the old version, so I goto the FreeBSD website, get the latest port, but since my ports are out of dat teh cvsup only tries to fetch the ".tar.gz" part of the filename.

I'm also using FreeBSD 4.0-Stable, which was installed from scratch. The ~15GB FreeBSD slice was added after a 2GB Fat16 and a 3GB NTFS in an extended partition. I assigned the partitions through /var by size and /usr was what was left. The FreeBSD slice was based on using what was left on the 20GB Maxtor.

I have a seperate partition for /var/mail, upon which I have quotas enabled. User X is over their hard quota, but can still receive incoming email. Not only that, but user X can cat a small file (of a couple of dozen bytes) onto the end of the mailbox, no problems. However, using perl, vi etc user cannot append to their mailbox. I have checked quotas are enabled, and indeed, if user X trys to cat a large file onto the end of the mailbox (or use perl, vi etc to append) it presents an error about being over the quota. Anyone have any ideas? My design was to enable me to set a maximum quota for any given users incoming mail, but the sidetrack issue of being able to cat small files to the end of the box has me stumped. The user is over 3 times their soft quota, and 1.5 times their hard quota... Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I am not a novice at freebsd, but I guess there is something I am missing.....

If you can wait till tomorrow (or about midnight PDT tonight) you can find out at DaemonNews: http://www.daemonnews.org/ Short answer is ports are a method of compiling the software on your own machine, packages are pre-compiled binaries.

See this commercial vendor's performance numbers, his expensive LSMTP product, and his sizes of machines: http://www.lsoft.com/products/default.asp?item=lsmtp And then go do the same for free with FreeBSD and postfix and maybe softupdates filesystem. Real speed comes from parallel machines and real reliablity comes from redundant machines. So build as many FreeBSD/postfix machines as you need. I know one FreeBSD/postfix user in the financial sector that runs 20 FreeBSD/postfix machines to deliver a 100,000 msgs every morning to list subscribers to stock market lists.

Not sure, specifically, but you could find out by using the m4 method to generate the default sendmail.cf file, then add in the m4 macro for masquerading the envelope and generate that separate .cf file, then diff that against the default. The diff should be what you'd need to do to your sendmail.cf file, should you choose to hand edit it. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 17:25:58 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from priv-edtnes04-hme0.telusplanet.net (edtnes04.telus.net [199.185.220.104]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A1F2037BCD3 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 17:25:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from james@aspert.com) Received: from james ([209.53.42.103]) by priv-edtnes04-hme0.telusplanet.net (InterMail vM.4.01.02.11 201-229-116-111) with SMTP id <20000601002552.HUP4208.priv-edtnes04-hme0.telusplanet.net@james>; Wed, 31 May 2000 18:25:52 -0600 Message-ID: <004601bfcb61$73452200$672a35d1@james> From: "James A.

Actually, I think I was one of the first people to mention this problem (search through the mailing list archives), and PHK was gratious enough to try and help me work it out with little success however. I also talked to Greg on IRC about it as well, and it was my understanding it was fixed in 5.0-C .. I've since dumped all my Epox 7KXA's and went with ASUS K7V's, a much nicer board. Greg also forwarded me a email which I think he(?) sent to Epox detailing the problem and they were less then responsive to the suitation with comments like, "It's possible you may have received one of the few boards which might have problems, but it's extremely unlikely" (badly paraphrased) so they don't seem real interested in fixing their broken stuff. I read elsewhere on this mailing list that the ABIT KA7's have a similar problem, perhaps it's the KX133 chipset itself at fault. For the time being, I'm sticking with the AMD 750/751 chipsets.

The GPL requires that you make this material available I didn't really want to give this argument a lot of weight and also mentioned that it would be okay to point to network resources. This is not really that important after all. As you pointed out, the toolkit does satisfy the GPL in any cases, as does the freebsd ftp server among others... > > 2.

Of course, FreeBSD should not follow what Linux distributors do. One main reason for me to switch to FreeBSD, starting with 2.0, was that it was much more cleany organized and maintained (thanks to you too!) than average Linux distributions (the other reason being its stability and quality for mission critical applications). My point was here, that _other_ users I know started compairing FreeBSD to Linux and the argument was always, that FreeBSD were a much cleaner and _complete_ OS and were a real professional system that comes with _full_ sources. Many users actually switched to FreeBSD for this very reason. As a true FreeBSD aficionado, I'm now fearing that many of these less informed users may switch back to Linux, just to be sure to get sources (_they_ won't ever need). But please let's not start a religious OS war here. > In any case, this is simply how things are and isn't likely to change > until such time as DVDs become more popular or I'm allowed to increase > the size of the default distribution set.

But I'm sure that a lot of users, if not the big majority won't agree here and I can understant that. Considering that the toolkit would be produced on a more timely fashion, it may be okay to use that as a complement to the -RELEASEs. But _please_ do refer to the toolkit on a more prominent place (probably on the CD-Cover and certainly on the freebsd website), mentioning that the distfiles had to be put there due to space requirements. This would save many users from being disappointed with their new regular -RELEASE CDs (as I was). Again, thank you very much for your patience concerning this issue! ;-) -Farid. -- Farid Hajji Broicherdorfstr. 83, D-41564 Kaarst, Germany Phone: +49-2131-67-555, E-Mail: farid.hajji@ob.kamp.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 17:38: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from s3.bn3.com (s3.bn3.com [207.0.114.195]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A048337B7A5 for ; Wed, 31 May 2000 17:38:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bsd@themaker.net) Received: (qmail 32315 invoked from network); 1 Jun 2000 00:38:02 -0000 Received: from dt181n44.tampabay.rr.com (HELO dcormier) (24.92.209.68) by s3.bn3.com with SMTP; 1 Jun 2000 00:38:02 -0000 From: "Daniel Cormier" To: "Questions, FreeBSD" Subject: Very high pings...

Earlier today I tried getting a 4.0-STABLE box to recognize 3 LPT ports, one onboard and 2 lava isa cards: lpt0: io 378 / irq 7 [onboard] - ECP mode lpt1: io 278 / irq 5 [lava isa parallel card] - ECP mode (bidirectional jumper on the card) lpt2: io 3bc / irq 7 [lava isa parallel card] - ECP mode (bidirectional jumper on the card) Now anyone from the 'ol DOS days know this combo works, and I figured it'd work under BSD as well, and was quite surprised to find it didn't. Here's my relevant config: device ppc0 at isa? irq 7 device ppc1 at isa? irq 5 device ppc2 at isa? irq 7 device ppbus device lpt Unfortunately, these lava cards do not allow any other irq other then 5 and 7. Nevertheless, plain 'ol DOS seems them just fine and uses them without a hitch (not win-dos, msdos6.22) Recompiled, and rebooted. BSD saw lpt0 and lpt1 but refused to see lpt2 erroring out with "cannot reserve i/o space". So I hit the manpage for lpt(4) and ppbus(4) and ppc(4) and read up on configuring the devices. So I tried setting them to BIOS probed ports: device ppc0 at isa? port? irq 7 device ppc1 at isa? port? irq 5 device ppc2 at isa? port? irq 7 That didn't work, and reported the same error message, except this time I lost lpt0 in the process as well. So I headed back to the manpages and decided to try polled ports (as I have to use lpt ports as polled devices via lptcontrol(8) otherwise they print really, really, really slowly. Had the same problem under Linux as well many moons ago.. Anyways...) so I tried: device ppc0 at isa? port IO_LPT1 irq 7 device ppc1 at isa? port IO_LPT2 irq 5 device ppc2 at isa? port IO_LPT3 irq 7 This also didn't work, and produced the same results as my first example. All three devices were created in /dev so that wasn't the issue. I then went back to the mailing list archives and tried an example from 3.x releases (which to my understanding with the nlpt device works just fine) device ppbus0 device ppbus1 device ppbus2 device lpt0 at ppbus0 device lpt1 at ppbus1 device lpt2 at ppbus2 device ppc0 at isa? port IO_LPT1 tty irq 7 device ppc1 at isa? port IO_LPT2 tty irq 5 device ppc2 at isa? port IO_LPT3 tty irq 7 This didn't work either. The lpt devices moved up one device number, lpt0 became lpt1, etc. I simply got frustrated and decided to give the mailing list a shot. I'm really surprised this isn't working, but I figured I must be missing something here, so if someone can clue me in, I'd be really grateful.

This is completely incorrect. Sure, you can go through setting any kind of partition type (swap, System V, whatever), but it won't work.

Well, you can read 'man restore' for its error messages to see some of the possible consequences: : not found on tape The specified file name was listed in the tape directory, but was not found on the tape. This is caused by tape read errors while looking for the file, and from using a dump tape created on an active file system. expected next file , got A file that was not listed in the directory showed up. This can occur when using a dump created on an active file system.

You'll bore me to tears if I have to read another "RE: rant on Linux!, no wait, BSD!, no wait, the guy that just twisted my words!, no wait, that guy's cousin's mother!" whew! Instead of polluting my phone line, let me pick your brains for a minute. During one of my late night sessions of endless tinkering with my BSD box, I installed GTKPortScan (merely for fun; and out of curiosity). Anyway, after running it on a few different IPs, I decided to run it on my own. Well, I was pleased to find an open port with a daemon running on it that I am unfamiliar with (I like that; it sparks more curiosity). Aside from FTP, Telnet, http, etc, I have something called "sunrpc" running on port 111. I have no idea what this is. While I was in inetd.conf disabling finger and a few others, I didn't see any mention of sunrpc. I found a sunrpc directory under /usr/share/examples, and one of the files within said something about a remote message printing protocol. Could someone be so kind as to offer a brief explanation on what this is/does? Also, while I remember, how can restart inetd (or any daemon, for that matter) without restarting BSD? I was under the impression I could send it an HUP signal via 'kill' and then just restart it, but kill wants a pid that I can't find. Anyone? Thanks...

I am, however, being pressured a bit to 'conform', and the company is now shelling out for licensed versions of VMWare. I've just assisted with the installation of a RH6.1 system with VMWare and then NT4/WS, and, apart from a few little glitches (mainly to do with NT), we had it up and on the local NT Domain in less than 6 hours (including a lunch-break). My question: what would I need to do to use the licensed (real) version of VMWare on FreeBSD rather than the (I believe) 'trial' version that comes in the ports? I'll have a closer peruse of while I'm waiting for comments here ;') Thanks and regards, haxxa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 31 21:52:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from zippy.cdrom.com (zippy.cdrom.com [204.216.27.228]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8237037BFA5; Wed, 31 May 2000 21:52:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jkh@zippy.cdrom.com) Received: from localhost (jkh@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by zippy.cdrom.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA03880; Wed, 31 May 2000 22:55:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jkh@zippy.cdrom.com) To: asami@FreeBSD.ORG (Satoshi - Ports Wraith - Asami) Cc: "Jordan K.

I think you will find that your local domain socket, i.e., /var/run/internet or what ever you called it, has 544 privaledges for root and wheel. If you auto start it, it will be owned by root. I don't know any way around that.

If you use seperate IPs for the hosts you want you can run customized ftpd's on each IP, you may want to check out 4.0 jail facility.

I'm going to build several (at least 10) of these machines in a load balanced environment. The machines will be running Sendmail 8.X and moving several million messages per day. What I was after was ideas for kernel, network, and disk performance tuning. We're probably only talking about 2 disks here, I assume Vinum will be helpful. Network is 100Mbit, Full Duplex, Switched.

Please stop suggesting this kind of approach. FWIW, the command line approach (which also happens to be the easiest) is described in the man page: DRIVE LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS vinum drives are currently BSD disk partitions. They must be of type vinum in order to avoid overwriting data used for other purposes. Use disklabel -e to edit a partition type definition. The following display shows a typical partition layout as shown by disklabel: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 81920 344064 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 240*- 297*) b: 262144 81920 swap # (Cyl. 57*- 240*) c: 4226725 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 2955*) e: 81920 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 57*) f: 1900000 425984 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 297*- 1626*) g: 1900741 2325984 vinum 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 1626*- 2955*) In this example, partition g may be used as a vinum partition. Parti- tions a, e and f may be used as UFS file systems or ccd partitions. Par- tition b is a swap partition, and partition c represents the whole disk and should not be used for any other purpose. >> This is completely incorrect. Sure, you can go through setting any >> kind of partition type (swap, System V, whatever), but it won't work. >> If you change it to vinum, it will work, but the history of how you >> got there makes no difference. > > Sorry but that previous paragraph is confusing to me, are you saying > that changing the label to vinum is the right or worng thing to do. You must set the partition type to vinum. You suggested first changing it to 4.2BSD, which is wrong. >>> Finally you will have to tell vinum to start the array, using the >>> "start" command. This appears to be necessary only the first time >>> around.

So you have "start_vinum" set in your /etc/rc.conf. > PS Greg even though I had problems getting vinum going, I find it an > excelent system and thank you for your extensive contribution to > this facility. Thanks. You're welcome. For the sake of all others reading this: sure, it's possible to have problems setting up Vinum, especially as the installation support is still somewhat primitive. But if you have problems, please ask. If you don't, and you finally get it to work anyway, at least check with me before broadcasting a description of your experiments.

So "[ -f /usr/lib/libkrb.a -a -f /usr/lib/libdes.a ]" should be false and thus "-lkrb -ldes" shouldn't be added to LIBS. Strange... Adding this if-clause helped some users. So simply removing it might break the build on their machines. But it seems that the if clause doesn't cover all setups. I'm going to build KERBEROS4 on my machine to see what's going on...

If not is there a viable way to do this (some sort of python script or something). For an idea of the sort of thing look at the debian menu package, it seems very simple and easy to implement, it just needs a field in the package config file. Cheers, John Travers P.s.

You shouldn't declare them as pointers, then you pass their address (e.g. with &enable) in the ioperm call. But even after changing that, it still fails. As I said, I've never used this function, and I guess it shows. :-) I think another way is to open /dev/io before doing your outb. As long as you have /dev/io open (you don't need to read or write anything to it) your process is allowed direct IO access, AFAIK. I think i386_set_ioperm is the newer method though, so hopefully someone who has used it can explain how it's done. Aha! I think I see why, after reading the source. It appears you'll need 'options VM86' in your kernel config for these to work. The manual page should probably tell you this. If it still doesn't work then, I don't know. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 5:56:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailgw00.execpc.com (mailgw00.execpc.com [169.207.1.78]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4905437B9A6 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 05:56:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dpoland@execpc.com) Received: from judah (d185.as3.appl.wi.voyager.net [169.207.25.123]) by mailgw00.execpc.com (8.9.1) id HAA30710; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 07:56:15 -0500 From: "Doug Poland" To: "Danny" , Cc: "ListServer FreeBSD Questions" Subject: RE: tar to ftp site Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2000 07:56:15 -0500 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) In-Reply-To: <00060217521007.00323@freebsd.freebsd.org> Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Unfortunately, this is the only Unix box on the network and I do not have administrator access to Novell.

This works! open("/dev/io",O_RDONLY) and then you don't need the i386_set_ioperm() at all. The outb() just works! Thanks.

KDE's application bar derives it's contents (by default using FreeBSD port anyhow) from /usr/local/share/applnk, directories/shortcuts as created with KFM. Similar in contrast to how M$ controls the 'Start' menu. If you want something script-based, then I'd suggest fvwm, or something along that line. I use qvwm (Win98 lookalike WM) on a few Sparcstations here, and you just need to have a .qvwmrc file containing the user(s) application menu, (rather simplistic form). I guess it all depends on what you intend upon accomplishing? I'm not sure what the Debian menu package looks like so I've nothing to compare to as far as that goes. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 7:18:23 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from icarus.dur.ac.uk (icarus.dur.ac.uk [129.234.1.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E565F37BA53 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 07:18:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from J.C.Travers@durham.ac.uk) Received: from mercury.dur.ac.uk (mercury.dur.ac.uk [129.234.4.40]) by icarus.dur.ac.uk (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id PAA09221; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 15:18:10 +0100 (BST) Received: from durham.ac.uk (lib3--34.dur.ac.uk [129.234.86.34]) by mercury.dur.ac.uk (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id PAA22332; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 15:18:10 +0100 (BST) Message-ID: <393671A5.C076B914@durham.ac.uk> Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 15:22:29 +0100 From: "J.C.Travers" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: webmaster@wmptl.com Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Application menus References: <39363EBB.A6BF8011@durham.ac.uk> <39366E15.73FBBFCF@wmptl.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This isn't quite what I meant, I understand how to make menus manually (i.e.using scripts with fvwm etc) but what I was wondering is if there is anything automated. The debian system is like this: every time a debian package is installed (similar to pkg_add) it registers itself with a central database. Then a program called 'menu' reads this database and then allows the window-managers to read this as a preconfigured menu that displays all of the apps on the system. So when I start up windowmaker or kde etc, I get a menu of all the apps on the system (not just kde ones) split into sections (graphics, editors etc). I can't see that this would be hard to implement (afterall, doesn't pkg_add register the packages somewhere) I was just wondering if it had been done. I find it a little frustrating to not know exactly whats on my system. Thanks for the interest, Cheers John P.s. I am now on the mailing list...

The debian system is like this: every time a debian package is installed (similar to pkg_add) it registers itself with a central database. Then a program called 'menu' reads this database and then allows the window-managers to read this as a preconfigured menu that displays all of the apps on the system. So when I start up windowmaker or kde etc, I get a menu of all the apps on the system (not just kde ones) split into sections (graphics, editors etc). I can't see that this would be hard to implement (afterall, doesn't pkg_add register the packages somewhere) I was just wondering if it had been done. I find it a little frustrating to not know exactly whats on my system. Thanks for the interest, Cheers John P.s. I am now on the mailing list...

Ok, make world finished, now... The problem is that "test -f" evaluated to true even on a symlink (so does test -L). I added a test if /usr/lib/libdes.a is _not_ a symlink so it builds on 4.0-STABLE, now.

Wheather you choose to tie up a second ip address or not doesn't really matter -that much is up to you. Question 2: I don't know if you can have two of the same usernames on a machine, but I do know it's possible to host user@onedomain.com, and (same) user@another.net on the same machine. I'm assuming you're using sendmail? (Or have you setup QMAIL?) Anyhow, since sendmail's installed by default with FreeBSD 3.3, here's a quick rundown on how-to do that much: /etc/mail/sendmail.cw: ecbs.com.au enetbiz.com.au /etc/mail/virtusertable: user@ecbs.com.au user user@enetbiz.com.au user1 then you'll need to hash the virtusertable, (I wrote a simple shell script to do it, goes something like this): #!/bin/sh clear echo 'Removing old sourcefile' rm /etc/mail/sourcefile echo 'Creating new sourcefile' cp /etc/mail/virtusertable /etc/mail/sourcefile echo 'Updating the Virtual User Aliases File' makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable < /etc/mail/sourcefile echo 'Restarting sendmail' killall -HUP sendmail echo 'Done.' Question 3: I don't believe it's possible to do virtual ftp hosting with FreeBSD's stock ftpd, you'll propably have to look to an ftpd replacement. I know of people using Opre FTPD to do virtual ftp hosting, but I've never used it myself, maybe someone else will have the answer to this one for you. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 7:33:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nwcst322.netaddress.usa.net (nwcst322.netaddress.usa.net [204.68.23.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id ED33B37BA2F for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 07:33:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from vbuck@usa.net) Received: (qmail 11540 invoked by uid 60001); 1 Jun 2000 14:33:16 -0000 Message-ID: <20000601143316.11539.qmail@nwcst322.netaddress.usa.net> Received: from 204.68.23.67 by nwcst322 for [207.234.105.136] via web-mailer(34FM1.4.02C) on Thu Jun 1 14:33:13 GMT 2000 Date: 1 Jun 00 09:33:13 CDT From: Vernon Buck Jr To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Port question "Stop Code Error 1" X-Mailer: USANET web-mailer (34FM1.4.02C) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the ..ports/printers directory I ran make pbm2ppa-0.8.6 to install the= port to fix a problem I have with an HP712.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi. I've just switched to 4.0 right now and I have a problem. (well the first problem is that I dont know enough about freebsd, but I digress) I have two fxp network cards in box (intel ether express pro 10/100), one of which is integrated into the motherboard, the other of which is pluged into an active pci riser card. In 3.2 and 4.0, the pci-bus on the riser card is pci3 and the 'integrated' pci bus is 0. In 3.2 pci0 is scanned first, for devices and the integrated card is found and made fxp0, then pci1, pci2 and finally pci3, finding the second card, making it fxp1. In 4.0 it seems that pci3, then pci2 then pci1 then pci0 are being probed, finding the cards in the other order, and swapping what is fxp0 and fxp1. The problem is that the cards get swapped. It's a long story why just switching the cables on the cards isn't really an option (lots of machines, wiring in racks of lots of machines shouldn't depend on which kernel or even which os the box is running, etc...) So, is there some way in the kernel config file to wire down which busses fxp0 and fxp1 live on? The only experience I have with this is playing around with isa sound cards in my desktop machine... Or alternatively, I _think_ that the bus probe stuff is in /usr/src/sys/kern/subr_bus.c I tried fiddling with device_add_child and device_add_child_ordered, but in retrospect it seems that that would just ocntrol the order in which an individual bus is scanned. How can I change the order in which the busses are scanned? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Um...perhaps I'm being stupid, but why don't you just switch the IP addresses of the NICs? If I understand what you were saying, in 3.2, your config looked like: fxp0, 1.2.3.4 --> some hub fxp1, 10.11.12.13 --> a different hub and now, it looks like fxp0, 10.11.12.13 --> the 1.2.3.* hub fxp1, 1.2.3.4 --> the 10.11.12.* hub Why don't you just do # ifconfig fxp0 inet 1.2.3.4 netmask # ifconfig fxp1 inet 10.11.12.13 netmask which will give you your original configuration again, and then fold those changes into /etc/rc.conf so the configuration is preserved if the system reboots? Or is there something I'm missing?

If I try to start adduser, it shows up an interactive interface for adding users. This is nice for people who need it rarely or need to have different configs all the time. I, OTOH, need to have it scripted as we have to create almost identical accounts over and over (we use them as login for the FTPd as well as for quota reasons) again. man adduser shows switches but if I try to use # adduser -shell no -home /home/web/a/test2_com/web/ test2_com I end up with the interactive interface as well. What am I doing wrong? (Linux' useradd did this without any problems but that one hasn't got any interactive modes, AFAIK). And the second question: "You can change UT_NAMESIZE in /usr/include/utmp.h and recompile the world; people have done this and it works, but you will have problems with any precom- piled programs, or source that assumes the 8-character name limit and NIS." - adduser manpage We won't use NIS but ProFTPd [1] (which handles long names on Linux without any problems) so is it safe to do that? I'd like to have longer usernames so I can assign them pretty like the user's realname making it easy for them to remember it. I think it's a pain for them to remember and for us to figure out who's really the owner of something... [1] And NFS is going to be used as well as the standard utils such as chmod and chown.

Well, yes in general this would, but then I have to maintain two seperate configurations and remember which machines were which -- I already kind of do this but it would complicate things some. I could live with that, but, read on... The REAL problem is that the only reason the second nic is in the box in the first place is that it has a custom boot-bios that I can't put into the card integrated on the motherboard. I dont even have a cable plugged into the second card at all -- it's just there for the bios. Thanks for the idea -- upon further reflection, I could probably rewrite part of the boot-bios (was designed in house here...) and change some of the startup stuff to detect this and change cards. It still seems like this is the hard way, but at least it's an option if I can't do anything else.

Disklabel did not work and after reading the man page for disklabel I could find no way of adding a new partition and relabeling it. "fdisk/newfs" was the correct answer and in my case was in fact operated from stand sysinstall. As stated in my previos mail I thought it was necessary to add a partition, but you said that was not necessary. This was incorrect as I later discovered. This is the ambiguity that I am fighting with my so called experimental methods.

I've written a small test program, #include #include #include #include #include #include #define _PATH_FIFO "fifo" int main(void) { struct stat sb; FILE *fp; struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_handler = SIG_IGN; sa.sa_flags = SA_RESTART; sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask); sigaction(SIGPIPE, &sa, NULL); if (stat(_PATH_FIFO, &sb) != 0) err(1, "stat " _PATH_FIFO); if (!S_ISFIFO(sb.st_mode)) errx(1, _PATH_FIFO " is not a FIFO"); for (;;) { if ((fp = fopen(_PATH_FIFO, "w")) == NULL) err(1, _PATH_FIFO); fprintf(fp, "Hello!\n"); fclose(fp); } } But when I do a ``cat fifo'', I get odd results sometimes: $ cat fifo ... Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! For some reason, 'cat' doesn't see EOF when my 'fifotest' program closes the FIFO. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here please? This doesn't always happen. If I run 'cat' like that a few times in a row, it will normally happen, and if I run 'cat' again straight away it normally happens again. If I leave it for a while it generally takes a few attempts to make it happen again. If I add a sleep(2) after the fclose it seems to work fine, but this seems like an ugly kludge. FWIW I get similar results on FreeBSD 3, 4 and 5. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 9:32:11 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from goliath.dacor.com (ns1.dacor.net [205.133.75.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7B03337BF17 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 09:32:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jkonecn@green-mfg.com) Received: from green-mfg.com (ig88.green-mfg.com [205.133.74.18]) by goliath.dacor.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2448.0) id LWS5SC9K; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 12:32:04 -0400 Message-ID: <39368FFF.851FD81C@green-mfg.com> Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 12:31:59 -0400 From: Joe Konecny X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 3 nics for firewall Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I want to set up a fbsd box with 3 nics.

I have a FreeBSD-4.0 Stable system. Recently, I have not been able to compile anything because "ar" always causes a signal 11 and dies. I know that signal 11's usually indicate a memory problem, but this is a machine that has a zillion other things running on it that never signal 11. Is there anything else that can be causing these errors that is specific to "ar"? This is, as you can imagine, quite a pain because I can't install any ports or upgrade Apache. Thanks in advance!

An mt(1) command has been hung for several days now with no way to kill it and any additional mt(1) commands to the tape hang in the same state: ~: ps wuwax | grep "[m]t" root 16912 0.0 0.6 764 344 p2 DE+ - 0:00.00 (mt) root 19325 0.0 0.7 764 352 p1 D+ Fri08PM 0:41.50 mt rewind As root I tar'ed root's ~ ( tar -cf /dev/rswt0 /root ) which appeared to work, but when I sent `tar -tf /dev/rwst0` it lists most of the files but terminates before the end with (sorry it was several days ago when I did this and I don't want to hang a remote process trying to recreate the error) some message about "unexpected EOF" or "garbage in the archive". Can anyone send me a clue about how I should properly be accessing the tape please? (I've also had issues with make [build]world which is why I'm still on 3.4R of a few months ago but that's a separate issue and may well be operator error.) --Ben mailto:ben@instantemail.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 10:22:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailgw00.execpc.com (mailgw00.execpc.com [169.207.1.78]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7194037B9E8 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 10:22:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dpoland@execpc.com) Received: from judah (d185.as3.appl.wi.voyager.net [169.207.25.123]) by mailgw00.execpc.com (8.9.1) id MAA25823; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 12:21:42 -0500 From: "Doug Poland" To: "Igor B.

Currently I have 3 domains hosted on a 5 machine 100-baseTX, full-duplex switched LAN like this: 'net | aaa.bbb.25.2/27 (gw pn0 ) | [FreeBSD gateway box] ______________|____________________ | | aaa.bbb.26.88/29 (gw pn1 ) aaa.bbb.26.96/29 (gw pn1 alias) |______________________________| | ___________switch_____________ | | | | | | | | The rest of the LAN This works. I'm going to be getting this though and I've searched the 'net to little extent on how to make it work: 'net 'net ____| |____ | | aaa.bbb.25.2/27 (gw pn0 ) ccc.ddd.78.62/30 (unknown card) |_____________________________________________| | [FreeBSD gateway box] ______________|_____________________ | | | aaa.bbb.26.88/29 (gw pn1 ) | ccc.ddd.72.144/25 (gw pn1 alias) aaa.bbb.26.96/29 (gw pn1 alias) | ___________switch____________ | | | | | | | | The rest of the LAN (which will also need to answer to IP's in the ccc.ddd.72.144/25 netblock) HOW can I make this happen? I have to do something with the default route, yes? But what else? I want the machines to be able to answer on both (well, all three) subnets for an unknown time until the new 'net has "proven" itself. (It's a totally new installation and I have heard of other people on this new hardware having problems too.)

Yes. I think someone else posted instructions on using mkisofs to create the ISO image to the list.

The problem with alot of documentation in the computer field is and for years has been the assumption by the author that you already know everything and are just looking up a forgotten detail. (whether its a conscious decision or not) I THINK its just the regular human tendency to assume what assumables are, and due to the fact that software authors often have to write those things, and that software authors are not necesarily in an environment where alot of their resultant end users are. (A good example of the latter issue is just the design of smtp itself and security issues arising from the change of its use from universities and govt offices to the commercial arena) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 12:14:49 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from palrel3.hp.com (palrel3.hp.com [156.153.255.226]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 430AA37BFC9 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 12:14:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from charles_dinkey@non.hp.com) Received: from amrelay2.boi.hp.com (amrelay2.boi.hp.com [15.56.8.41]) by palrel3.hp.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 607691846; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 12:14:40 -0700 (PDT) Received: from xboibrg2.boi.hp.com (xboibrg2.boi.hp.com [15.56.8.172]) by amrelay2.boi.hp.com (8.9.3 (PHNE_18979)/8.9.3 SMKit7.02) with ESMTP id NAA14289; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 13:14:34 -0600 (MDT) Received: by xboibrg2.boi.hp.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 13:14:34 -0600 Message-ID: From: "DINKEY,GENE (Non-HP-Loveland,ex1)" To: "'Tom Collins'" , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: interested in writing articles...

Oops, I forgot about that case. Sorry. The installation is hardcoded to use vty 3 for ppp. > so am i totally screwd? If you have to use a serial console *and* have to install over a ppp link, using the normal installation program, then, yeah, you are probably screwed. Is it possible for you to install from CDROM instead ? Or have some friend help you with the installation ?

If anyone has setup restrictions this way, please help :) -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 13:11:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from igate.hand-werk.com (igate.hand-werk.com [211.5.65.184]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EBDFC37BEE0 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 13:11:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dm-admin@hand-werk.com) Received: from igate.hand-werk.com (localhost.hand-werk.com [127.0.0.1]) by igate.hand-werk.com (8.9.3+3.2W/3.7W) with ESMTP id BAA43204; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 01:46:21 +0900 (JST) Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2000 01:46:19 +0900 (JST) From: daisuki Subject: =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCJVMlOCVNJTk+cEpzGyhC?= To: Message-Id: <200006011646.BAA43198@igate.hand-werk.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-2022-JP" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Reply-To: dm-reply@hand-werk.com X-Mailer: DM System Ver.1.0 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG $B#2#0#0#0G/#77n!!F|K\H/%[!<%`%Z!<%8>R2p%S%8%M%9$,%9%?!<%H$7$^$9!*!*(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!y!z!y!z!y!!!V%9%?!<%&%'%V#2#1!W!!!y!z!y!z!y(B $B!!(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B7$B7n!JM=Dj!K$K%0%i%s%I%*!<%W%s!*!!(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!8=:_!!L5NA2>EPO?2q0wJg=8Cf!*(B $B!!!!!!!!%0%i%s%I%*!<%W%sA0$N!!$3$N;~4|$,#B#I#G%A%c%s%9$G$9!*(B $B!!!!!!!!:_Bp$G2T$.$?$$J}(B $BA4LLE*$K%P%C%/%"%C%WCW$7$^$9!!"v(B $B$H$3$m$G!!(BYahoo$B3t$,(B1$B2/1_$rD6$($?$3$H$J$I!"%$%s%?!<%M%C%H4XO"$N%S%8%M%9$O(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:#8e$N2DG=@-$,7W$jCN$l$^$;$s!#(B $B!!(B $B$3$N%S%8%M%9$K$O!!%"%a%j%+;qK\$NF16HB>G/$G$9!K(B $B$H$K$+$/!":#$^$G$N%S%8%M%9$H$O<}F~$K$J$k%9%T!<%I$,$^$k$G0c$$$^$9(B $B$3$N%S%8%M%9$rF|K\$N4k6H$,Bg4k6H$N;Y1g$rJ$$$?!!D>%@%&%s#2L>8BDj$N%P%$%J%j!<$r:NMQ!#(B $B!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"v%5!<%S%9FbMF"v(B $B!z%[!<%`%Z!<%8%S%k%@!e$K%[!<%`%Z!<%8$r2r@b$9$k$?$a$N(B $B%9%Z!<%9B_=P!J%O!<%I%G%#%9%/MFNL$N%l%s%?%k!K(B $B!z(BCGI$B%5!<%S%9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B $B@lMQ$N7G<(HD!!@lMQ$NEE;R%a!<%k!!%"%/%;%9%+%&%s%?!<%f!<%6!<$N%G!<%?!!%+%&%s%H(B $B!J%5%$%H%Z!<%8%S%e4IM}$J$I(B20$B9`L\!K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B $BNc(B : $BC/$,<+J,$N%[!<%`%Z!<%8$r8+$?$+%+%&%s%H$H%"%I%l%9$,J,$+$k!#(B $B!z%0%k!<%W%3%_%e%K%1!<%7%g%s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B $B!!!!!!(B $B%Q!<%=%J%k%G!<%?$+$i%0%k!<%W%G!<%?!<4IM}$^$GpJs%9%1%8%e!<%k$G8D?M$,8=:_2?$r$9$Y$-$+(BToDo$B5!G=$,$"$k!#(B $B!z%*%W%H%$%s%&%(%V(B $B!!!!!!(B $B&IJ!"%5!<%S%9$J$ICg2p$r$9$k(B $B!z$=$NB>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(B $B%[!<%`%Z!<%8%j%s%/$K$h$k%P%J!<9-9p%S%8%M%9$d(B WEB$B%Z!<%8%S%k%@!CHq@G(B $B!o(B550 $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!9g7W(B11,550$B1_$,!!EPO?;~$KI,MW$H$5$l$^(B $B$9!#(B $B!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z!z(B $BG/4V(B\11,550$B$G!"$3$3$^$G$N%5!<%S%9$,$K$J$$$H;W$$$^$9!#(B $B$^$?!"%*!<%W%s8e$K>e5-$N%5!<%S%9$NB>$K;dC#$N%0%k!<%WFH<+$N%5!<%S%9$b$"$j$^$9(B $B%$%s%?!<%M%C%H$r3Z$7$s$G$*>.8/$$!!!!(BGET$B"v(B $B!|F|K\$N2qEPO?$O!!4JC1$K=PMh$^$9!!$b$A$m$s%-%c%s%;%k$b=PMh$^$9!!(B $B!!8x<0#H#P$r$h$/$4Mw$K$J$j!!2>EPO?#H#P$h$jEPO?$7$F$/$@$5$$(B $B!!!!"(EPO?$O$"$/$^$G!"2>EPO?$G$9!#F~6b$OGI@8$7$^$;$s!#(B $B!!(B-------------------------------------------------------- $B!!!!!!8x<0%[!<%`%Z!<%8!!!!!!!!(Bhttp://210.239.241.194/ $B!!(B-------------------------------------------------------- $B!!!y!z!y!z!y!y!z!y!z!y!y!z!y!z!y!y!z!y!z!y!y!z!y!z!y!y!z!y!z!y(B $B!!!EPO?%[!<%`%Z!<%8!!(Bhttp://210.239.241.194/cp/taketoyo $B!EPO?$,40N;$9$k$H!"!V#I#D!W!V%Q%9%o!<%I!W$,H/9T$5$l!"(B $B!!!!$9$0$K$"$J$?$N2>EPO?%Z!<%8$,=PMh$"$,$j!!AH?%?^$N3NG'$b=PMh$^$9(B $B!!!!!!!!!!Nc!!(Bhttp://www.strweb21.com/cp/$BF~NO$7$?%K%C%/%M!<%`(B $B!!!!(B $B!!!!!!(B2$B=EEPO?$9$k$HKu>C$5$l$^$9$N$G!!$4Cm0U2<$5$$(B $B!!!!!!!!(B $B!!!!!!(B $B!!(B $B!TF10l=;=j!!JLL>EPO?$O#O#K$G$9!U(B $B!!!!!!!!!!(B $B!!(B $B!z!z!z!!!*!*3'$5$s$N$4;22C$r$*BT$A$7$F$*$j$^$9!*!*!!!z!z!z(B $B!*!J!0(B_$B!0!K!*; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 13:18:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from 3-cities.com (unverified [208.26.241.209]) by corinth.bossig.com (Rockliffe SMTPRA 4.2.1) with ESMTP id ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 13:19:02 -0700 Message-ID: <3936C502.1539E947@3-cities.com> Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 13:18:10 -0700 From: Kent Stewart Organization: BOSSig (BOSS Internet Group) X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.73 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Duke Normandin Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: How to close a ppp connection?

And speaking of these sh scripts > (e.g. -- the ones to "use" pppctl ) , ideally where should they live? I have no experience doing user-ppp as a user. I only run them as root and have a /root/bin directory that was added for root. I add root stuff such as my .sh scripts into the bin directory. You could try them as your user and create a /home/user/bin, add it to your path, and see what happens. I auto start ppp and will su to shut my system down. I'm hardly ever on the machine doing the ppp connection and it is a telnet session to begin with. My ISP shuts me down at 8 hours of connect and I usually drop and redial ppp so that I have a 8 hour session to begin a LONG download. You feel kind of foolish when you get up and only have 1 hour of download time before they dropped and killed the ftp session :).

Leaves us out in the cold with no backups. I ran across this post on deja (I'm not subscribed to this list), but some may be interested to note that there appears to be FreeBSD client support in the latest patches for Netbackup 3.2 . If there's enough interest, I can report on whether it seems to work once I get it installed.

Since sound is considerably different on =>4.x and <4.x, you have to tell us what you are running so that someone still using that system can help. Provide us with a "uname -a", the section of your dmesg where the system is trying to add your sound card, and what you added to your kernel config. This is on the side of overkill but you might get an answer on the first try that way.

You can add another *doh!* there because I don't know how either. I haven't tried configing the storage device mode at the initial boot time when you are presented with all of the devices. Your sysctl is right except you want the main device to be pio instead of dma. I'm really a believer in installing from the floppies and I think you stand a chance there. If you are having trouble at this point, you could have a machine that falls into the "or worse" category. You can follow what happened there by searching on "ad0 drivers revisited". There was a comment that one of the disk manufacturer's had a way to force a ATA drive into PIO4 mode. The "at0" search should also find that message. I would also consider using a older hard drive for the boot. The PIO 4 drives work just fine as primary master and you don't need more than 16MB/s.

Usually, I don't alter my working environment from factory default just because it's usually fine the way it is, but this time I thought I might tweak my bash prompt a bit. And I had a couple of questions about how the bash prompt '/w' option works and how it applies to the $HOME enviroment variable. First of all, if I set my prompt to PS1='\h:\w$ ' my prompt usually ends up looking like this: bsd:/usr/home/user$ rather than bsd:~$ I think this has to do with the $HOME enviroment variable being set to /home/user and not /usr/home/user, bash might not like because /home is a link to /user/home. After I set $HOME to /usr/home/user then things look okay. I'm wonder what initially sets the $HOME variable to /home/user rather than /usr/home/user. I've taken a look at my . files and I didn't see anything there that sets $HOME to /home/user so I'm thinking it's a global thing.

However, if it is, I would be grateful if you could help me with FreeBSD. I rescently installed it on my system. The problem came when I tried to install one of the ports. I have a single cdrom distribution of FreeBSD, and mounted it with the command: mount /dev/acd0c (I'm not exactly sure of the device name I used, but I know it mounted the CDROM succesfuly, as I could browse it in /cdrom). I then went to /usr/src/ports/editors/emacs. There, I typed 'make'. Unfortunately, it spouted a ton of errors at me. It would appear that it is trying to download the ports from an FTP connection, as opposed to using the CDROM. I have read the BSD handbook, but I can find no reference to this problem, and have followed all the steps as instructed. I am using FreeBSD version 4.0. Thankyou for your help.

Mike, I don't think you followed all the steps as instructed... read (yes, again) http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ports-using.html and look again. The dir you need to be in is /usr/ports/editors/emacs when you do your "make install". Reading and retaining what you read are entirely different.

There is only one machine I need to access with files on it from the firewalled machine, and since it is run by me a trust it. The pertinent parts of my firewall rules are as follows: fwcmd=/sbin/ipfw nfssrv=ip of nfs server, on a different subnet ip=my ip address ${fwcmd} add 90 pass ip from ${nfssrv} to any # allow all access from nfs server ${fwcmd} add 100 pass tcp from any to any established # allow established TCP connections ${fwcmd} add 100 pass all from any to any frag # allow fragmented tcp packets # ... some bland rules for DNS, ssh, auth, etc.. ${fwcmd} add 100 pass icmp from any to ${ip} # \___ allow all ICMP ${fwcmd} add 100 pass icmp from ${ip} to any # / ${fwcmd} add 200 deny log tcp from any to any setup # deny everything else, and log it for fun and profit Now, when I try and mount from that machine I get the following error: NFS Portmap: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Unable to send The odd thing is, if I change the first rule (90) from ``allow ip from ${nfssrv} to ``allow ip from any'', it works fine...

I had no problems. However, it is always best to atleast have working backups of your Win98 drive for the ooppsss scenario. I had a static IP, so I did not have to worry about installing it from the cdrom. Here are the steps I did: 1) Booted from the floppy, then when the install menu came up, I went to CUSTOM/EXPERT 2) There, under PARTITIONS, I selected da0 and then selected SET BOOTABLE and then QUIT, I was prompted for BootManager STANDARD or NONE, I selected BOOT MANAGER 3) Then it brouhgt me to da0 and da1 selection and this time I selected da1 and selected ALL to make it all dedicated to FreeBSD. When prompted for BootManager/Standard or None, I selected STANDARD 4) In the PARTITION section, it showed my da0 as a DOS drive, and I had da1 listed to create partitions on. I selected C for create and created: / 512MB /var 128MB swap 256MB /usr all 7GB+ of it You might have different sizes and even a /data /scratch or whatever you like. I tend to select the most basic, and then work off of that. 5) Went into Distributions and selected X-DEVELOPER and then also selected COMPAT1/COMPAT2/COMPAT3 and the like. ( You want to the DEVELOER/X-DEVELOPER option if you want the src installed. You will need it if you want to be able to compile the kernel). 6) Went into MEDIA and was prompted for which device and I selected fxp0 (remember, I had a dedicated IP) and filled in all the required info, 20 miutes later, I had FreeBSD 4.0 installed with X, Apache, PostgreSQL, PHP. Love this setup and it works great!!! Remember... BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!!!!

It requires erlang which is in the ports/lang/erlang directory. I can't seem to connect to the web-site so I'll paste a few lines from the readme. 1) What is this? This high availability software package includes the components of Eddie, the IP Migration Application, the Intelligent HTTP Gateway and the Load Balancing DNS Package. It is only meaningful to install Eddie on a *set* of hosts. Never the less it is possible to simulate advanced clusters on a single host. Read the tutorial included in this package to do this. This is a beta release but we intend to remove the beta label within the year and to release an NT version as soon as possible. The other Eddie component are the Load-balancing DNS Server and the Content Replication Application (experimental). They can be found at http://www.eddieware.org/ and can either be used separately or together. Regards Willem Brown "James A.

Anything we modify from these sources goes into /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/patch, as well as the Makefile we use to build patch. You cannot cd /usr/src/contrib/patch and run make install and expect it to work; you must cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/patch and run make install there. To sum it up, basically, stuff in /usr/src/contrib comes from GNU; stuff in /usr/src/gnu/ comes from FreeBSD.

FreeBSD is an entire operating system in itself that is full featured, and more stable then Windows 9x any day of the week. As such it can not be installed "over" Windows other then to replace or co-exist in a Dual-boot sitution with Windows.

The manpage says that ``-v'' is only for compatibility with some earlier versions of awk(1) and causes the variable assignment to take place before the BEGIN block is executed. If ``-v'' is omitted then the variable assignment will happen *after* the BEGIN block has been executed. Since the BEGIN block doesn't need ``s'' it should work without ``-v''.

Well, you could ask again. disklabel will do this for you, but you need different options. From disklabel(8): Writing a standard label To write a standard label, use the form disklabel -w [-r] disk disktype [packid] The required arguments to disklabel are the drive to be labeled and the drive type as described in the disktab(5) file. The drive parameters and partitions are taken from that file. If different disks of the same physical type are to have different partitions, it will be necessary to have separate disktab entries describing each, or to edit the label after installation as described below. The optional argument is a pack identi- fication string, up to 16 characters long. The pack id must be quoted if it contains blanks. If the -r flag is given, the disk sectors containing the label and bootstrap will be written directly. A side-effect of this is that any existing bootstrap code will be overwritten and the disk ren- dered unbootable. See the boot options below for a method of writing the label and the bootstrap at the same time. If -r is not specified, the existing label will be updated via the in-core copy and any bootstrap code will be unaffected. If the disk does not already have a label, the -r flag must be used. In either case, the kernel's in-core label is re- placed. For a virgin disk that is not known to disktab(5), disktype can be spec- ified as ``auto''. In this case, the driver is requested to produce a virgin label for the disk. This might or might not be successful, de- pending on whether the driver for the disk is able to get the required data without reading anything from the disk at all. It will likely suc- ceed for all SCSI disks, most IDE disks, and vnode devices. Writing a label to the disk is the only supported operation, and the disk itself must be provided as the canonical name, i.e. not as a full path name. The following will often work, but not always: # disklabel -w -r da0 auto > "fdisk/newfs" was the correct answer fdisk will do it too, but it's not needed. newfs is very definitely the *wrong* answer.

Well, yes, but it would be nice to catch these problems and ensure that other people don't have them too, rather than making them go through the same pain again.

Hmmm.... It's more a question of market share for each product than it is the physical number of CDs. If I make the FreeBSD 4.0 RELEASE product so much better that people buy only half as many toolkits, for example, then you can bet someone is going to want to know just how the price is going to be adjusted so that the net profits don't fall simply because I decided to be a nice guy. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 18:47:16 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from server.computeralt.com (server.computeralt.com [207.41.29.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B5DA737B5E2 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 18:47:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from scott@computeralt.com) Received: from scott.computeralt.com (scott.computeralt.com [207.41.29.100]) by server.computeralt.com (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id VAA28400 for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 21:47:11 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <4.3.1.2.20000601214655.0248db80@mail.computeralt.com> X-Sender: scott@mail.computeralt.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 4.3.1 Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 21:47:10 -0400 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: "Scott I.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just watched a crapload of traffic occur between a dialup user and our FreeBSD box. Traffic was TCP between the dialup's port 1077 and the FreeBSD box's port 50419. Most of the traffic was from the FreeBSD box to the client and it pretty much flooded the connection. Eventually it stopped. I did some looking around and couldn't find anything that would use those ports. The closest was the fake "bosniffer" which is really BO in disguise, but from reading the way it works, this wasn't it . I was about to blindly block those ports for lack of any other solution, but then the traffic stopped. So I'll check with you guys first. Any thoughts? ----------------------- Scott I.

Try getting the boot floppies and using rawrite.exe or fdimage.exe to burn those images to floppy. Once the install program is up and running you can copy bin.aa and the rest of the files from your DOS partition. If you have network access (and I'm assuming that you do since you sent this email) you can install the entire distribution from the 'net.

MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2000 15:48:00 +1200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Since it doesn't (as yet) involve any source code I thought I'd send this here and not to -hackers. Headache central. I run sshd and connect to my box through SecureCRT (an actually very good ssh client for Win32). Came in this morning and it wouldn't login. We could connect at layer 4, and some daemon and backgroud software I left running is fine, but not login as such. Since I mess around with firewalls a lot and locking myself out is not uncommon, I have a (shite) console connected to the serial port and can get a root login from here. So I got inetd up (normally disabled) and normal telnetd going and tried to connect again. The client connects instantly, but then takes ages (like, a minute) to get a login prompt. Not good, but at least I'm in. Once in, I waded through /var/log and could find nothing. Running ethereal onto a new telnet session showed what was happening (kinda): The three way handshake was completed and telnet opened the batting with the "Do suppress go ahead" command, which was acked. Then nothing for 75 seconds. It then continues and goes through to the ack for "Login:" within 0.5 seconds, as to be expected. Quite why, I don't know. I've seen a similar problem to this before, but on that occasion I had the default router set to an address not on the local subnet, and fixing that solved the login problem. On a hunch I decided to have a look at the arp cache with arp -a, which didn't seem to want to complete (ctrl-C'd it), then arp -na completed and appeared to solve all my problems. Everything goes fine, but there is still a significant gap (1.5 seconds) from "do suppress go ahead" to the next command. So, while I am 'fixed', I still have no idea what went wrong or why. It seems there was some kind of corruption in the arp cache that was causing a timeout to happen much the same as when I did something stupid with the default router. Is this the case? What can I do to prevent it? And why did it render sshd totally unable to login? A bit confused, but protective of uptime.

Can anyone point me to a good explination on the differences in NFS and Samba. As I understand it, NFS allows unix clients to connect to a centralized set of files on the NFS server. Also, the NFS can be a client to another NFS server. Samba only allows users to connect to its shares as if they were a NT Server. A Samba share can only be a network server, not a network client.

If you're intent is to optimize you'll be building a custom kernel soon enough as the default install has support for things like the x87 emulator. -- Jim On Fri, 2 Jun 2000, leegold wrote: > My 1st install of a non-MS OS ( 1st UNIX install ) I want to make sure I get > things optimized. > > storage: I'm keeping ata0, ata1, fde0 ( I think my cd-r is a master on ata1 > and my HD is master on ata0 ) > > network: deleted all devices ( I have a realtek ethernet card not cited in > this list ) > > communications: I see: ppc0 - parallel port chip set, > sio0 and sio1 - serial ports > ( I have an outboard modem on com2 ) > What should I do? should i delete sio0?

Still I have a few thoughts that I'd like to share. NFS grew up in a peer to peer environment where client and server had a different meaning than they did in the DOS world. In the Unix world a client is a program that opens a connection, and the server is the program that waits for connections. Thus a system will be a server of some things and a client of others. For example in one former environment that I managed each workstation exported it's non-system disk into a pool that was universally available to all other stations. This was done for home sharing and to provide common access to applications, code revision control, and data resources. This is in contrast to the PC paradigm, where the server is the central system and the client is the distributed system. This is the way most Novell, LANMAN and NT administrators think about their environments. For example at another place I worked there were several Novell servers that hosted applications and file shares for hundreds of PCs. Beyond some very simple functionality these PCs were useless if the "network" was unavailable. This difference in usage of the words "client" and "server" was at the core of many misunderstandings about Unix networking. Enter Samba... Samba was developed to fill a need where PC users wanted access to files available on a Unix box but it was inconvenient to run an NFS client on the PC. With Samba it became possible to use the unix system as if it were a LANMAN file server. The big problem here is that LANMAN (and WfW, NT and the rest) has a different idea of permissions, locking, and access semantics than Unix systems do. Samba has to provide a series of mappings and alternative implementations to allow the two systems to cooperate. Thus Samba would be a poor tool to choose if the environment contained only Unix systems. I like to think of NFS, AMD and Samba in a flexibility hierarchy. I use NFS to export available space from various systems into a "pool". I then use AMD to create a "virtual hierarchy" over that pool. Finally I use Samba to provide wintel users with access to the virtual hierarchy. Finally Samba does provide a command line tool called smbclient that allows a unix system to access shares and printers exported from wintel systems. I've only use this for debugging and for some simple scripted file distribution tasks. chris -- Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 22:40:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gw.Adl.USSR.net (digita1.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.137.85]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 008E837B63C for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 22:40:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wabit@adl.ussr.net) Received: from localhost (wabit@localhost) by gw.Adl.USSR.net (8.10.1/8.10.1) with ESMTP id e525dtw22252; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 15:09:55 +0930 (CST) Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2000 15:09:53 +0930 (CST) From: james To: Chris Fedde Cc: support@tecpro.com, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: NFS -vs- Samba In-Reply-To: <200006020526.e525Quv57319@fedde.littleton.co.us> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thanks for the explanation, makes it much easier to understand - can you tell me where I could find a nfs client (freebie, preferably) for NT/98 etc ? regards james On Thu, 1 Jun 2000, Chris Fedde wrote: > Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 23:26:56 -0600 > From: Chris Fedde > To: support@tecpro.com > Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: NFS -vs- Samba > > On Fri, 2 Jun 2000 00:22:14 -0400 "Charles Peters - Tech Support" wrote: > +------------------ > | Hello Yall! > | > | Can anyone point me to a good explination on the differences in > | NFS and Samba. > +------------------ > > I can't point to any succinct explanations other than to point you > to the documentation for both and make your own conclusions.

From: Lanny Baron To: Charles Peters - Tech Support Subject: RE: NFS -vs- Samba Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Lets make this real simple and short. I am the official Canadian Mirror for Samba. Just in case you're interested. NFS is Network File System made by SUN. NFS allows you to access other UNIX boxes and in particular, file systems as if they were part of your own system. An example would be cd /f/www which in my case means /f is the dir on my local box that refers to a machine some 20 miles away and www is my web directory. In this scheme i can cd to that dir and vi or pico any file and modify or what ever to that file so long as I am the same uid/gid as the remote system has for my identity. With Samba it is basically the same. But it is more intended for Windows, DOS or Mac users to be able to run apps or save files to shares on the Unix box. To the Doze user, they would see the Unix PC in Network Neighborhood and would then be able to click on that PC and see/use the shares permitted to them. As for using Samba in a Unix enviorment you can. The client side is called smbclient. Here is a sort of picture of me going into another FreeBSD box with smbclient: lnb@satan:~$smbclient -L heretic -N Domain=[FREEBSD] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.7] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- apps Disk Applications Directory backups Disk Backup Directory antivirus Disk Norton Antivirus2000 mike Disk mike's directory bus-plans Disk Business plans for Freedom Technologies mp3 Disk mp3 download directory waves Disk Directory for .wav files IPC$ IPC IPC Service (FreedomTC's File & Printer Server version 2.0.7 on heretic) Server Comment --------- ------- HERETIC FreedomTC's File & Printer Server version 2.0.7 SATAN Freedom Technologies server 2.0.7 on host s Workgroup Master --------- ------- FREEBSD SATAN Now I will login to that box and do a dir in one of the shares.

However note this. You can use smbtar to tar files and dir's of remote machines to back them up or just copy them.

In file /etc/rc.conf i wrote=20 firewall_type=3D"OPEN"
In file /etc/rc.firewall i=20 wrote:
   =20 net=3D"212.3.116.0"
   =20 netmask=3D"255.255.255.252"
   =20 ip=3D"212.3.116.90"
and i have not changed the rules = for=20 firewall_type=3D"OPEN" - i used default rules for this = section.
 
When server rebooted it said: = "Ipfirewall=20 modules loaded. Ipdivert disabled (?)."
When it red /etc/rc.firewall it = said "Rules=20 loaded".
 
As I saw in rc.firewall the main = rule for=20 "OPEN" firewall type is "allow all from any to any".
 
So, SENDMAIL said while booting:=20
gethostbyaddr (212.3.116.90) :=20 failed(1)
Jun 1 17:15:30 spark mail.local: = sendto biff:=20 Permission denied.
 
When i wish to ping something it = says: ping:=20 sendto: Permission denied.
And if i want to tell the server = "ipfw add=20 65534 allow all from any to any" it says:
ipfw: socket: Permission = denied.
 
Please tell me what is a problem? = My FreeBSD=20 version is 2.2.8
 
Thank you,=20 calman@kaliostro.crimea.com

Any help would be appreaciated. you will have to run natd, in order to do this, you have to build a custom kernel with: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT make sure you have enabled your computer as gateway (in /etc/defaults/rc.conf) make sure that in /etc/services there is a line like: natd 8668/divert edit /etc/rc.firewall or if you are not interested in a firewall, change the name of the file and create a new one with /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ed0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any here i suppose ed0 is the "outer" nic, change if this is not true if you use bourne shell and you are using the small rc.firewall: sh /etc/rc.firewall now run natd: /usr/sbin/natd -n ed0 again i assume ed0 is the outer nic \ good luck raymundo > > -Jake > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 1 23:44:44 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fedde.littleton.co.us (fedde.littleton.co.us [216.17.174.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1F03A37B6AE for ; Thu, 1 Jun 2000 23:44:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cfedde@fedde.littleton.co.us) Received: from fedde.littleton.co.us (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by fedde.littleton.co.us (8.10.0/8.10.0) with ESMTP id e526iRv61760; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 00:44:27 -0600 (MDT) Message-Id: <200006020644.e526iRv61760@fedde.littleton.co.us> To: "Tanka Rai" , yonkirati@hotmail.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: I could not find ksh shell with freebsd In-Reply-To: <000801bfcc56$29e39e20$6d1415d1@default> From: Chris Fedde Date: Fri, 02 Jun 2000 00:44:27 -0600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 1 Jun 2000 22:48:17 -0700 "Tanka Rai" wrote: +------------------ | I bought a freebsd 3.4 a month ago.

I'd like to be able to back up a 18 GB drive. I've looked at TRAVAN and at DAT. Besides the speeds should I be worried about anything?

Both the Seagate and HP drives does not say that BSD is supported (but then again, most things that are don't say they are). Is anyone using these? Any other recommendations?

In fact, Luke's question was very valid. There are good reasons to give drivers less power than the kernel itself, and most architectures have hardware support for such a concept. Unfortunately nobody's interested enough to change things, though it could make for a more reliable operating system. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Dear Tom Messmer, you have just performed a major upgrade; a number of ports simply needs rebuilding. This -- as well as the reason for this -- was documented in several places: in particular, it was (then) posted to the -current forum.

My bug report has stayed unattended for several weeks now: http://n0cgi.distributed.net/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1238 (My last comment is outdated, I have found 'ktrace') I wonder if I am too stupid to make things right, I can't imagine I am the only one who has a client running. To sum up the problem: There is no FreeBSD/alpha client, so I run the OSF/1. It always segfaults when it tries network access. Is there maybe some other OS client I should run? NetBSD?

I remember something like this as well. On The Linux box I had, I had to escape the slash as well (\\). If the user account is a local account on the ras server then you shouldn't specify the domain.

XFS uses a space manager to allocate disk space for the file system=20 and control the inodes. Inodes are created as needed and are not restricted to a particular=20 area on a disk partition. XFS tries to position the inodes close to the files and directories they reference.=20 Very small files, such as symbolic links and some directories, are stored as part of the inode, to increase performance and save space.=20 Large directories use B-tree indexing within the directory file to speed up directory searches, additions and deletions. So in a way inodes are created dynamicly. > > which is good for scalibility. >=20 > Why? >=20 Suppose you have an disk with 3 terabyte on a partition and you just created an fs on it with the default options. If you put millions of small files in many directories, you'll run out of inodes and the rest of the diskspace cant be used anymore cause of that. And just changing the amount of bytes per inode isnt possible without newfs the partition. Xfs isnt bothered by this limit and is therefor scalable. And of course the jornalling is cool and therefore the possibility to recover in case of disaster is better then that of ufs. So when i am very rude i say: xfs =3D ufs - limitations. Of course, performance wise i cant say it. But for a journalling fs the xfs performs well.

I've been using Amanda at home and a couple other sites quite happily for a few years now. I have a 4xDDS2 (4/8GB) juke which it runs very nicely. It was cheap enough for home or a small ISP; you might want something more capacious and therefore expensive (DLT, AIT). I've been backing up FreeBSD-2, -3, and -4 boxes, SunOS, and Solaris boxes; Amanda should work fine on any UNIX. Check www.Amanda.org for caveats on backup of NT: I think it cannot do "active" files such as the registry, but I don't do enough NT to really know. No idea on Netware, RTFM.

I've got one of the Travan 4/8GB drives but when I found a 4xDDS2 changer I started using that instead. Mostly, the Travan media is *way* too expensive, like $30 for the 4/8GB, versus $5 for the equivalent DDS2. And after just a few uses my drive must have missed the end-of-tape mark on the Travan and unwound all the tape off one of the spools; I had to through it out; at $30 it this was rather annoying. You might look at AIT and DLT but they're still too expensive. Would overstock or refurb units be OK? I got a couple 4xDDS2 changers from www.ez-systems.com and really like them. Automating backups is *critical* IMHO because otherwise they won't get done. Amanda can operate jukes via FreeBSD's "chio" driver; way cool. Oh, make sure whatever drive you get is SCSI.

FreeBSD's IBCS binary emulation is very good. This will run SCO 3.2v4.2-compiled programs. Programs built with SCO OSR5 are SVR4 ELF binaries, and our SVR4 emulation is nowhere near complete enough to run those binaries. The best solution is always to recompile the source for FreeBSD and run it as a native binary, but sometimes that's not possible. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jun 2 7:45: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from teapot28.domain6.bigpond.com (teapot28.domain6.bigpond.com [139.134.5.197]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 85C8937B6BF for ; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 07:45:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from port@iname.com) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by teapot28.domain6.bigpond.com (NTMail 3.02.13) with ESMTP id pa386167 for ; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 00:41:28 +1000 Received: from DKBH-T-003-p-126-125.tmns.net.au ([139.134.126.125]) by mail6.bigpond.com (Claudes-Multi-Faceted-MailRouter V2.7e 11/1273432); 03 Jun 2000 00:41:17 From: "Peter Ortner" To: Cc: "Philip Hallstrom" Subject: RE: Phone/Voice Mail system?

Boris Popov announced smbfs-1.1.2 just a few hours ago... From README: -----8<------- SMB/CIFS protocol and SMB/CIFS file system implementation for FreeBSD, version 1.1.2. This is native SMB/CIFS filesystem (smbfs for short) for FreeBSD. It is a complete, kernel side implementation of SMB requester and filesystem. This release should be considered as "beta" and it doesn't contain NetBIOS name resolver so you have to supply an IP address of SMB server by hand. Please note, that this version of smbfs has been tested with recent FreeBSD-current, FreeBSD 4.0 and FreeBSD 3.4. I'm would be very grateful for any feedback, bug reports etc. Currently smbfs has been tested with following SMB servers: Samba, Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0 (SPs 4, 5, 6), Windows 2000. An updated versions of this package can be retrieved from ftp server: ftp://ftp.butya.kz/pub/smbfs/smbfs.tar.gz Perfomance ========== There is some perfomance benchmarks over 10Mbit network: Win95 machine as server: IOZONE: auto-test mode MB reclen bytes/sec written bytes/sec read 1 512 339791 323416 1 1024 481067 431568 1 2048 648394 588674 1 4096 630130 583555 1 8192 671088 618514 Samba 2.0.6 as server: IOZONE: auto-test mode MB reclen bytes/sec written bytes/sec read 1 512 409200 437191 1 1024 545600 596523 1 2048 729444 798915 1 4096 871543 919299 1 8192 900790 1024562 Author: Boris Popov -----8<------- Ah, may be he announced this only on -stable and -current...

I work for a large ISP and all our web servers use HTTP 1.1 and CNAME's. Generally, it's only REALLY old browsers (netscape 2 comes to mind) that have problems with this. IP address are more difficult to maintain and keep track of, and your web server will look a lot cleaner with just 1 IP on it, rather than thousands. :) Cheers, Marc On Fri, Jun 02, 2000 at 12:23:29PM -0700, f.johan.beisser wrote: > > generally, i think it's better to do IP based virtualhosting. > > it's not so much of a performance issue, it just makes it cleaner with > older browsers, and makes it easier to track problems with servers. > > just my $0.02. > > -- jan > > On Fri, 2 Jun 2000, Nathan Vidican wrote: > > > We are a relatively small ISP looking to grow.

Considering the fact that IPs are getting rare (US people don't notice this as likely as we in Europe. RIPE would kill small ISPs doing IP based virtualhosting) I would suggest to do standard non-IP (AKA HTTP 1.1) virtualhosting. If you think you'll have enough IPs until you get new ones (and that could be delayed until IPv6 is widely available) you should do IP based virtualhosting. In any other cases, I'd suggest to use simple namebased virtualhosts. Things change if you want to offer SSL or anonymous FTP, of course. BTW: Why is my BIND complaining about zonefiles without any A records but just CNAMES? If I add ONE single A record, it stops complaining... Is there a way to get it working without a bogus record for such "CNAME only" domains?

Pre 3.x browsers can't deal with name-based http hosts, and occasionally you may see someone using something that old. If you want to offer anon ftp access for customers, you will have a difficult time without a 1:1/site:ip mapping. (currently name-based FTP access does not really exist) Keeping track of bandwidth for seperate IPs is a cinch, while doing it for name-based hosts can be somewhat more difficult. The additional load of DNS in terms of CPU and bandwidth will be about nil in proportion to your other services. Basically, for low-level hosting services CNAMEs will work fine, but more features require more complexity- including running a "real" DNS record for each name you host. Hope this helps a little. -=Jim=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jun 2 12:56:18 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.wmptl.com (mail2.wmptl.com [216.221.73.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 373DB37B55B for ; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 12:56:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Received: from wmptl.com ([10.0.0.168]) by mail2.wmptl.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id QAA10211 for ; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 16:03:58 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Message-ID: <3938112F.279EF428@wmptl.com> Date: Fri, 02 Jun 2000 15:55:27 -0400 From: Nathan Vidican Reply-To: webmaster@wmptl.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: what is 4.0-STABLE Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG is 4.0-RELEASE up to date, or is there a 4.0-STABLE ?

One more questoin. I am trying install two NIC. I successfully installed the Realtek and I am trying to install the Compaq PCi NIC. It is recognized but does not attach a device with it. So it says "driver not assigned" at boot time. THe realtek install was realy easy it recognized it as NE2000 driver and assigned ed1 very easily. I know I heard somewhere that I can have NAT box running with one NIC but the connection will be slow. Can you tell me is there anything I need to do in the Firewall to make this 2nd NIC work.

The local ISP's provide a DSL Bronze+ connection that they claim is 768kb/s. I've been told this is an adaptive setup and you won't see it until you download a large file. A file transfer starts out slow and moves up as the need continues. There has to be some file that you need that is large enough to gauge what you eventual throughput is. I like ws-ftp-pro because it lists the current rate during the download but I only have that on my W2K machine. The problem would be finding a source with no activity so that you aren't competing with a number of people for a limited resource. With the right choice here, you may still end up seeing 768kb/s. 178kb/s is still a lot better than my usual 48kb/s modem connection :).

Of course its possible, what do you think this is, a Microsoft product? :-) Easiest way I can think of is to install nmh from the ports. Run your mail thru slocal using the ~/.forward hook. In your ~/.maildelivery filter rules simply default everything back to the system mailbox. (sorry, don't have an example of this under my fingertips, think it involves calling mail.local from slocal) Then, the final thing, is you create a file named ~/.maildelivery.db, and magically slocal will write the message-id: of everything it sees to that file. It will drop any message with a message-id already in that database. This is a good way to quickly create a zero length file. The % symbol is your shell command prompt: % :> ~/.maildelivery.db Occasionally you will have to zero your ~/.maildelivery.db as it will grow infinitely. Just type the above command again. Procmail has a way to do this also too. When I last looked into it looked like procmail did a linear search on message-id and limited its data file to 32k. And once it reached that size might have been rewriting the entire file each time it deleted one and added another. Slocal uses the dbm routines in libc. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net (hm) ====================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

And the direct answer to your question... vi /etc/ttys (I think, I don't have a box handy) and mark the pty's as secure. That will allow root logins from telnet. Now, that probably isn't the best idea from a security standpoint - using ssh and allowing root logins through ssh is probably a better idea.

Thus 4.0-RELEASE is a snapshot of the 4-STABLE branch at a particular time. When you cvsup the source you can either get the sources for 4.0-RELEASE (tag = RELENG_4_0_0_RELEASE) or for 4.0-STABLE (tag = RELENG_4), which you get depends on your configuration file.

If you can afford DAT, that's the way to go. Travan is designed for workstations while Travan NS is for small netwoks. Breakeven point between DAT and Travan is about 15-20 tapes. After that, DAT gets cheaper. Forget AIT. You've seen ads for AIT2 for the last year. Have you seen an AIT2 tape anywhere? Sony is apparently having beaucoup problems coming up with media. The only AIT2 media is about 72GB, not even close to the 100GB it's spec'ed for. DLT is a good technology for servers. SuperDLT is pretty much the end of the line, though. They'll have to pull one big rabbit out of the hat to come up with anything after that other than minor incremental improvements. If speed and capacity are a higher priority, check out LTO, http://www.lto.org. Multiple vendors for the drives and media means no shortage of replacements. Cross-compatibility is part of the spec, so interchanging data is much less of a problem than it has been in the past. Ecrix, Onstream, etc. all suffer from the same problems: new vendors with little tape experience, no future roadmap, single sources, proprietary technology. BTW, yes, I work for Seagate. > You might look at AIT and DLT but they're still too expensive. Would > overstock or refurb units be OK?

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. ===================================================================== Contents: 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 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.

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 Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ 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: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). 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 Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ 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 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 for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola 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 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.

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.

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 second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997.

If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ 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 Thanks to Sue Blake for this information 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: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt 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 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 General changes 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 and 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 for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: 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. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly 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. Page 140 ________ 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. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the 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 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ 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 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through 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. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing 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. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note 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: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example 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 for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: 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 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: 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: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, 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. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. 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. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

Both the Seagate and HP > drives does not say that BSD is supported (but then again, most things that > are don't say they are). Is anyone using these? Any other recommendations? DDS-2 has gotten quite affordable these days. Often a new good DDS-2 drive with hardware compression can be found for under $100. But that will only do an honest 4G on a $6 tape, more if the compression works for you. DDS-3's are about $600 for an uncompressed 12G on $15 tape. DDS-4's are shipping. Another company or two appeared in the past year or so offering tremendous capacity on inexpensive proprietary tape with an inexpensive drive. And advertised, "the data on this 60G tape survived boiling in water..." They didn't implement their device anything like a SCSI tape, sorta reminded me of a WinModem. Haven't heard anything more of it in quite a while, not that I've been listening. When thinking about the cost of a backup system be sure to consider both the hardware and media costs. A good rule of thumb starting point is the price of the drive, software, and 10 tapes. Once you have a tape drive for a few years you'll have lots more than 10 tapes. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

And this weekend the city festivals kick off with River Splash, a very large party along the river downtown. To have a little fun, we wanted to have a webcam set up to take some shots of the streets as the people walk by. It is now set up, but I would like to do it better, and I think I can do it with FreeBSD, but would like some opinions on hardware. Here is the current cam, if you are curious. http://www.onmilwaukee.com/webcam/bsdcam.html This cam was set up by another company for the website as I have been busy preparing the relaunch of our updated site. The image is uploaded via ftp every 30 seconds. I do not know what OS is being used, but I would guess they are using Windows. It is also using a plain old modem to get an internet connection. The camera is a Quickcam. Hardware and Camera What I would like do is build a very low cost box with basic hardware which includes a small harddrive, minimal memory, decent modem and a camera of some sort. The camera I am not sure about. I would like one which is both inexpensive but can also be adjusted to zoom in on the city streets as it will likely be positioned up high. What camera hardware can be used here? Has anyone set this up before? The OS, FreeBSD Next I want FreeBSD to be on the box, maybe even PicoBSD if it can handle it. I like the idea of running without a harddrive and being able to do an install by simply copying a disk. It also drops the cost down, allowing us to do even more cams more quickly. Web Server Once it is up, I would install a slimmed down version of apache or maybe even another webserver like zeus so that the public webserver can pull the images from the box, and not wait for an ftp connection. I like to detect if I can get the http connection and act accordingly. Modem Once I have a webserver, I need an internet connection. I could have a modem set up to dial out to on of the local ISPs, but it needs to stay online, at least from 6am to 3am. I have never scripted a modem connection, so I need suggestions here. I may also be missing some other areas where I can use FreeBSD to my advantage, but I cannot think of them now. Once I do put together a solution with FreeBSD, I hope to write up the instructions and send them to be posted on FreeBSDDiary.org. Then everyone can build a nice webcam. I would even put up the configs for PicoBSD if I go that route. The world needs more webcams! And in a couple hours I should be in the bar below that webcam, have a frosty brew.

I basically have cat 5 cable all of the way from Ruby to the GTE box on the outside of the house. Adding DSL wouldn't be that much of a deal. You in school are is Boss screwed up again :). Chatter's was at Victor's tonight. There were a few comments about KM. I'm thinking about converting the HP-1120 and opal to printing postscrip with FreeBSD. I think that will be the next effort. Time to read about ghostscript and printcap filters. Have you installed 4.0 yet? After getting me involved with FreeBSD you seem to be running slow at times. Getting the degree has the necessary precedence. I never thought my involement would be this high. I don't know whether to thank you are not. It has been a lot more fun :).

You are needlessly doubling the traffic to your nameservers for every lookup. It's much better to define each host as an A record that points to the IP address of your vhost'ing server. > The thing is, we've currently three almost > entirely free class C banks of IP addresses, and I was wondering if it > would be better to use IP based virtualhosting, or stick with our > current scheme of using cnames to one host? Better to keep the IP's for something more useful down the road. With the current IP situation, it's foolish to waste them if you don't need to, and would be frowned on by ARIN when it comes time to SWIP. > Could anyone explain the performance differences if any involved in > using IP vs CNAME virtualhosts? There is no connection between name based vhosts and CNAME's. The only requirement for a name based vhost is that it resolve to the IP of your server. By not using CNAME's you can have much more flexibility for your customers down the road because you can offer them custom DNS entries (like MX records, etc.) that you won't be able to do if you use CNAME's for their hosts. All that said, there are no performance differences between name and IP based vhosts. Why would there be?

A DNS response has plenty of room in it for multiple records. The response to a cname query contains the CNAME, potentially many A records and several authority records. The local name server is expected to cache these records to allow it to short circuit future requests for related data. My current thinking on this issue is that it is better to use a CNAME record for name based virtual hosts since it preserves the validity of name matching between A and PTR records. chris -- Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jun 2 22: 3:14 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dt051n0b.san.rr.com (dt051n0b.san.rr.com [204.210.32.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E5B5137B9A1 for ; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 22:03:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from DougB@gorean.org) Received: from gorean.org (doug@master [10.0.0.2]) by dt051n0b.san.rr.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA55449; Fri, 2 Jun 2000 22:03:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from DougB@gorean.org) Message-ID: <39389187.A6E576DA@gorean.org> Date: Fri, 02 Jun 2000 22:03:03 -0700 From: Doug Barton Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT-0528 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: support@tecpro.com Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: VNC - Virtual Network Computing - Your Comments/Opions Please References: <39384963.18229.A567C4@localhost> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Charles Peters - Tech Support wrote: > > Hello Everybody: > > I have been researching VNC, and would like to try the port, but would like > to have input from someone how has used the product and has experience > with it.

Make sure to read the docs that get installed into /usr/X11R6/share/doc/vnc by the port. It's a little dense to start with, but once you get a grip on it, it's not too bad.

Also turn on soft updates in the kernel.

My university is on a Novell NetWare network. We can use the NetWare Client to access parts of the server allocated to us (for storage, file transfer, and what not). Well, I have been looking for a way to access this through Apple's open source Darwin project (which uses BSD 4.4 just incase someone doesn't know who could otherwise help). I was informed that in the release notes to FreeBSD 4.0 there is mention of support for NWFS: >Support for the NWFS filesystem and NetWare client connections has >been added. A variety of NetWare related tools, such as ipxping >and ncprint, have been added in ports/net/ncplib. My question is this, would I be able to get this going on Darwin? Also, if so, where can I get (read download) this ability? If not, what would be required to run it on Darwin? Finally, anybody have any other solutions for my intended purpose (basically, to be able to login and access my NetWare drive space using Darwin/BSD, and ultimately OS X)? Thank you for any and all answers, Rogan P.S. Please, if you could, respond to my email address (bittin_s@denison.edu), seeing as I don't subscribe to the list. Many thanks in advance.

True, but just because there is room for it, doesn't mean that you need to include it. It still represents a bandwidth cost, whether you feel it's significant or not. At best, it's considered unfriendly to needlessly use CNAME's, especially on a permanent basis. > The local name server is expected to cache these records to allow it to > short circuit future requests for related data. Completely true, and totally irrelevant. I was talking about the requests that you actually receive at your nameserver. > My current thinking on this issue is that it is better to use a > CNAME record for name based virtual hosts since it preserves the > validity of name matching between A and PTR records. And what value do you think that has for a vhost'ing web server? I'm not going to spend a lot of time debating with you.

When I set up ppp I changed some of the files in /etc/ppp. I only changed the files ppp.conf and ppp.linkup -justin ko To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 3 5:55:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lucifer.bart.nl (lucifer.bart.nl [194.158.168.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2180037B94F; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 05:55:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from asmodai@lucifer.bart.nl) Received: (from asmodai@localhost) by lucifer.bart.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id OAA14844; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 14:55:33 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from asmodai) Date: Sat, 3 Jun 2000 14:55:33 +0200 From: Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven To: Georges Lemercier W CONT Milstar MCT Cc: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: your mail Message-ID: <20000603145533.D14170@lucifer.bart.nl> Reply-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i In-Reply-To: ; from Lemercier.Georges@AFMC.SCHRIEVER.AF.MIL on Fri, Jun 02, 2000 at 11:11:10AM -0600 Organisation: VIA Net.Works The Netherlands Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -On [20000602 19:22], Georges Lemercier W CONT Milstar MCT (Lemercier.Georges@AFMC.SCHRIEVER.AF.MIL) wrote: >Hello, > >I have two separate hard drives on my computer and I was thinking about >installing both win98 and Unix on each of them. can you think of any >potential problems with that.

It's a suite especially designed for image manipulation through scripting, e.g. on, a webs server. There are scripting interfaces available for Perl, Python, Java, C/C++. I don't immediately see "cropping" mentioned amongst the promoted list of possibilities, but I'd be very surprised if it couldn't be used for something so simple. Unfortunately, the port is still for ImageMagick-5.1.1, while the current version for ImageMagick is 5.2.0. That ought to be easily fixed. What I DON'T like, is that a command line image manipulator program requires XFree86!?!? -- Bart.

bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi All, I'm having a weird quirk that I can't seem to figure out. I edited /etc/login.conf (and did the make_cap) to change the default mail enviroment variable to something other than /var/mail/user. If a user logs in locally or if I "su - user", the new MAIL variable is set as I want. However, If I slogin into the machine, it's back to the default. What am I doing wrong, or Where is it getting set????

Beside the fact that I've no clue if they would work with FreeBSD: I can't recommend the Canon ones. Their papermanagment just suck. I once had a BJC 240 which could get the paper half the time for some reasons and I've heard some reports about the same with the 4300 series... HP is still the best, I think but they are quite expensive.

I visited the page about ports and it looks like there is a huge number of applications to use. Although, it seems FreeBSD requieres a bit more knowledge than windows. Have you ever compared windows (definetively too much resources consuming), linux, FreeBeOS (i do not remember if tis one is open source, I guess not) to FreeBSD?

Has anyone run FreeBSD on this hardware - any comments? Running 3.4-STABLE with the sym driver here, on a dual processor Proliant 3000 system. It's working very well. I have no experience with RAID on this hardware, though. If you use the builtin SCSI controllers: Please use the sym driver, not the ncr driver. The difference in stability is significant (currently 104 days uptime with the sym driver - we used to have a crash about once per week or so with the ncr driver).

The querries are tiny, and the CPU load to handle them is practically nil. DNS load is not any reason to argue one way or another. (we run DNS for 1000+ domains, each with their own IP, and the P166s we use for the servers barely budge from 100% idle) > Better to keep the IP's for something more useful down the road. If you have already been allocated your blocks by ARIN this may be an issue, but on the other hand you may (probably do) get your network blocks assigned by your upstream provider, in which case by the time you need more you'll be a much bigger customer and can demand more from them... "Down the road" may be far enough away to get into IPV6, etc- and although ignoring the future is silly, so is over-planning. You have plenty of IPs to use, so use them. If you have a crunch later, there are options and they will only become *more* diverse with time. It may require more work later, but you'll have more experience too. Changing your mind later is *not* impossible, just inconvenient. > There is no connection between name based vhosts and CNAME's. Um, yeah- there really is. If all your customers' www sites are pointed at the same IP address, the web server needs some way to decide which document root to use. Under http 1.0 this was impossible, but modern servers and browsers let you define name (not IP) based virtual hosts. If that doesn't count as a connection, well then you're right. :) > By not using CNAME's you can have much more flexibility for your > customers down the road because you can offer them custom DNS entries > (like MX records, etc.) that you won't be able to do if you use CNAME's > for their hosts. Actually, you can use a CNAME for www.theirdom and still define a zone file for them where you set up ftp.theirdom and mail.theirdom - so this argument simply doesn't hold water. > All that said, there are no performance differences between name and IP > based vhosts. Why would there be? Actually there probably *are* slight differences- but they're probably miniscule enough to be undetectable to mere mortals. Definitely they are dwarfed by the actual serving out of content. -=Jim=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 3 15:30:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns2.jjsoft.com (fig2.figdav.com [208.152.114.19]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5049737B6EB for ; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 15:30:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jahanur@jjsoft.com) Received: from ns2.jjsoft.com (ns2.jjsoft.com [208.152.114.19]) by ns2.jjsoft.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id RAA03171; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 17:21:38 -0500 (CDT) Date: Sat, 3 Jun 2000 17:21:38 -0500 (CDT) From: Jahanur R Subedar To: Pete Chon Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Private network does not get web browsing In-Reply-To: <20000603215243.16385.qmail@web1506.mail.yahoo.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I would think that it is problem with your IE not the getway setup because the you are able to ping www.yahoo.com.

Don't make me laugh. ARIN doesn't care that you use IPs, they care that you use them efficiently. IOW, don't use a whole class C for a leased line customer with 5 workstations. The situation with IP address allocations, is that we need to reduce the number of routes in the global routing tables.

To do an upgrade from ports, just make deinstall the port, then make clean, followed by a make reinstall. I'd recommend first doing a cvsup on your ports collection to make sure you have the latest Makefile (with patches, etc). This should not overwrite your existing /etc/XF86Config, if that is your concern.

Win98 is not the most stable OS in the world, but I have had good luck with it compared to win95 and win3.11 I have a lowly PII 350 with 160 megs of ram and an ATI Rage Fury MAXX video card and win98 flies right along while using a small percentage of my resources. FreeBSD 4.0 thinks this system is pretty cool as well, although I haven't played with any of the accelerated servers under X to see if my video card is supported. (I suspect it is not) Meanwhile, my 486DX2-66 with 12 megs of ram is painful to use with either win98 or FreeBSD 3.4. Both OS's dig deep into swap just sitting there. The point is this: resource hog is a relative thing. If you have lots of resources, who cares if the OS eats em up? That's what they are there for. Let's face it. The days of programmers having years to learn and massage the last ounce of performance out of a hardware platform ie the commidore 64 are over. Anyways....I like win98 for desktop stuff. Easy to set up. Easy to learn. My wife doesn't have to ask me questions everytime she tries to use the computer. All my odd hardware is supported. I like Unix for server stuff....ie my router and DNS for my home network along with my webserver all run on FreeBSD. Linux is ok, but have you ever tried to make a custom kernel under Linux? Not to mention the documentation for Linux...there's a lot of it, but so much of it is wrong. What in the world is FreeBeos?

I also tried booting the 4.0-RELEASE CD, and was able to install on the IDA driver, but it didn´t work after the reboot, just like many of you mailed me. Since I had heard a lot about changes in 4.0-STABLE regarding the IDA driver, i decided not to spend any more time on 4.0R and installed a 4.0-STABLE on my machine. In this version the IDA devices got their own device name, instead of using the IDE support. This should mean that you should be able to have IDE devices along with booting off the IDA devices. I didn´t have any IDE devices when I did this, so if any of you test this, I would very much like to hear about it, so I can put it on my website. To install 4.0-STABLE just go to ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386 and download the floppies for a snapshot, and then boot them.

If it is some new 24x or greater IDE cdrom then yes, it is supported for sure. If it is the old CR-563B twin speed then yes, it is supported, but the sound card/cd-rom controller card that many of them came with is not. You would need to find a dedicated controller (not an easy thing these days) in order for the driver to find your cd-rom. And if you have the old old old crusty (I'm talking with the original ORANGE crust on it) CR-513 (?) single speed (you can tell cause it has a caddy for the cd-rom) then no, it never was, and never will be supported.

Yes, you can do it just give the nic card two address, one on each network, on must be an alias address, see man ifconfig for details. and it is not really that slow, what this does is that each packet travel twice the same segment, each time one address. raymundo > > On Fri, 2 Jun 2000, Raymundo M.

No. It is not natd, the role of natd is to replace the inernal IP address of each packet for the external address so it can travel on the Internet. routed or gated for that matter exchange routes with your neigbors (topologically speaking) but for a simple network like yours or mine we only need to declare a default route and that is enough. raymundo > > Jahanur > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 3 19:45:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.rdc1.sdca.home.com (ha1.rdc1.sdca.home.com [24.0.3.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D799637BB09 for ; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 19:45:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from RaymundoVega@home.com) Received: from home.com ([24.5.252.61]) by mail.rdc1.sdca.home.com (InterMail vM.4.01.02.00 201-229-116) with ESMTP id <20000604024502.FUIF28251.mail.rdc1.sdca.home.com@home.com>; Sat, 3 Jun 2000 19:45:02 -0700 Message-ID: <3939C2AD.F541AAB6@home.com> Date: Sat, 03 Jun 2000 19:45:01 -0700 From: "Raymundo M.

Not a problem, but a lot of people haven't analyzed the problem that far. Another way to explain my objection is that the CNAME is not _necessary_, and a good system administration rule is not to include things that aren't necessary to make your installation work. "Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send," is still the way it's supposed to be. > The querries are tiny, and the CPU load > to handle them is practically nil.

You obviously missed the multiple places where I stated that the only requirement for name based vhosts to work is that the name resolve to the IP address of your web server. I've set up thousands of name based virtual hosts, I assure you, CNAME's are not required. > If all your customers' www sites are pointed > at the same IP address, the web server needs some way to decide which > document root to use. That would be the HTTP 1.1 HOSTS: header.

So you can add a kludge to make your first kludge work? Woo woo! At this point there really isn't any need to continue, since I've already said what I intended to say. If you don't see the wisdom in what I'm talking about, that's ok.
