Everything works okay but the system seem to be unstable- reboots about once a day (of course only when I am not around). Strangly enough named on this machine has NOT been a problem *shrug*. Also gated pukes after a bit with assert failed in rt_radix.c assert(RT_TABLE_PTR(socktype(rth->rth_dest) netstat -m shows 503/704 mbub clusters about 3hours after last reboot on a Sunday. My main apache proccess show 336 open files and 44781 total at the moment. (fstat of root http proccess and fstat of web user) I think I am going to redo this with FD_SETSIZE=512 and see if that helps the system. I wish I knew why the machine was crashing right now. I can only tell if I am on the console when it does and I dont want to set gdb as I prefer it to come back alive quickly. Any thoughts if 2.2 has any tweaks to handle this better.

I've just installed a second IDE drive in a small system... The bios picks it up fine; it's set up as the primary slave (second drive on same connector). When booting, the bios reports the drive; the boot sequence recognizes it because it gives two options: F1 and F5 for booting. However, when freebsd boots, it only reports wcd0 (wd0) and shows nothing of wd1. If I try to run fdisk on wd1, it says the device is "not configured"... Is my kernel lacking something? Do I need to recompile it with another configuration? Thanks for any help...

Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-isp@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi! This question probably does not belong to this list, but I have no idea where else can I ask for help. I liked very much the performance of Apache webserver on my FreeBSD box. Our main server is a DEC Alpha with OSF/1, so I downloaded Apache sources from www.apache.org and compiled on the Alpha. Everything seems to be working ok, except that I am not able to use server-parsed html :( I have configured it this way: in srm.conf: AddHandler server-parsed .shtml AddType text/html .shtml Also, the "mod_include.o" module was compiled in. Now, I have a document (called test.shtml) with just two lines: but when I open it with the browser, it appears blank (so I assume server-parsing is not working). Of course, I am opening it thru the webserver, not as a local file. Please tell me what am I doing wrong... Thanks in advance, Victor Carranza University of San Carlos, Guatemala P.D. Has anybody tried NetBSD for the DEC Alpha? Is it a good alternative, since there is no FreeBSD for the Alphas?

The modem connects the diffrent "ppp-layers" negotiate, and that works ok! Now I'm connected to the internet! Everythig works! For THREE minutes.. then I get disconnected. What could be the problem?

Sender: owner-isp@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have inherited a sysadmin job and what appears to be a pretty inefficient network comprising : DEC 500 Alpha (Digital Unix) - running 3 webservers, DNS for an entire C class, quite heavy mail server. It's struggling with only 64 MB RAM DEC 200 Alpha (Digital Unix) - running only one webserver with 96 MB RAM (don't ask !) DEC 266 Alpha (NT) - running 3 webservers. Pentium P166 (64 MB RAM) - running 2 webservers. IBM RS/600 (running AIX) - running 3 webservers. Now, if i understand this correctly, DNS and Mail should be run by themselves on dedicated machines. Is this correct ? The pentium at least will be switched to FBSD. But what should i run on it ? Would it be best suited for DNS ? Or virtual webservers ? or virtual email servers ? ( Email servers i guess can run on a slower machine and less RAM but more HD space.) I would prefer to use FBSD than Digital Unix even but .... 1. wouldn't digital unix be faster since it is made for their hardware ? 2. does FreeBSD for Alpha run perfectly ? (i had the impresssion that some of the ports etc didn't run as well.... and that the OS lagged the x86 version of FBSD - pls do correct me if an wrong) Thank you very much for your help. chas ps. in general, which is more important - CPU or RAM for DNS and webservers ? just out of a matter of interest, how many small websites (5,000 hits per day each average) would you fit onto a FBSD box with pentium 166 and 128 MB RAM ?

The card is old, at least a year or two, so it doesn't have the "newer" chipset. The card is connected to a 10/100mbs ethernet switch. When FreeBSD comes up, it "enables" the 10BaseT port, instead of the 100mbs port. Is there a way to get FreeBSD to force it to 100mbs instead of 10? I have verified that the port on the switch does 100mbs, by connecting other equipment to that port. But I haven't figured out how to tell FreeBSD to use it in the 100mbs mode. Thanks, Allen Hyer "Don't be too proud of this technological System Administrator terror you've constructed."

It's been a while since I ran tests, but a P166 should be able to handle something like 300K hits/hour. You'll run out of network before you run out of cpu unless you've got a T3. To answer your question though, that works out to 1440 "small websites". My tests weren't done with with virtual servers and ip aliasing though, and I don't know how those affect performance when you start talking about a thousand of them though. -- Alan Batie ______ It's not my fault!

I'm running gated 3.5.4, with RIP off and OSPF on, under 2.1.7, with 255 IP addresses.

I'm running 2.1.7 RELEASE#0 on a P166 machine. Whenever I 'mv' a file from one file system to another, I get this error/warning message: mv: /target/filesystem/filename: set owner/group: Operation not permitted The file is moved successfully though. mv'ing files within the same file system doesn't producing any such message. The mv man page mentioned that "As the rename(2) call does not work across file systemf, mv uses cp(1) and rm(1) to accomplish the move..." Is there anything I can do to avoid the said error/warning message? Thanks for any pointers. Regards, N.

The more interest we have, the more likely we will be supporting it in the future. To that end, if you know people who would be interested in Post.Office on FreeBSD, have them bug and pester us. The more interest there is... Also, as you indicated, we do not DIRECTLY offer Post.Office on the Linux operating system. However, we did allow Infomagic, one of our OEMs to port Post.Office to Linux. They are responsible for distributing and supporting Post.Office on this platform. You will find their website at www.infomagic.com. Hope this helps...
