I also changed the cables & found the answer on groups.google.com, too ;-) If you've bought a built pc-system it often happens that the cables are of poor quality what would result in a falling back to PIO mode. This seems to be the effect of the low data integrity that is reached in conjunction with those cables.

Can anyone help me? Here is how i did: 1) I installed 4.8-RELEASE from CD, 2) I used cvsup to upgrade. For this i used the stable-supfile as shown in the Handbook. => My OS version as shown by 'uname -a' and '/stand/sysinstall' is "4.8-STABLE". It looks like "4.8-STABLE" is slightly different from "4-STABLE": my problem is, i can't install up-to-date packaged binaries with this release. (Precision: I know i could recompile everything manually from ports, but, as i like many gory like mozilla, gnome, openoffice... it would take many days dedicated to recompilation on my single PC.) So, i tried to upgrade from within '/stand/sysinstall' by FTP. - First, it complained that it can't find the "4.8-STABLE" distribution on my FTP source (which can be any FreeBSD server or mirror) - So, i tried to force the Release Version in the Options menu to 4-STABLE. No more luck, same error message... - As the error message suggested me to put "any" in the Release Version in the Options, i tried to. The error message got different then ("unable to get packages/INDEX from selected media"). But it kept unsuccessful. I am a little puzzled, because i feel like i followed the instructions, but it does not work as expected. I must have missed something. But what? Thank you in advance for showing me what i did wrong!

But what? > > Thank you in advance for showing me what i did wrong! Packages are built for releases. To build packages for every possible snapshot of stable is impossible. If you want to install packages, change the option in sysinstall to 4.8-RELEASE. This is _not_ guaranteed to work (and is less likely the further your -STABLE is from -RELEASE) but in my experience it works fine almost all of the time. What you _should_ do is build everything from ports. I understand your argument about the time involved, but it's the price you pay for staying -STABLE. If you're trying to track a reliable version, you'd be better off tracking the 4.8 branch (i.e. RELENG_4_8 in supfile).

Have been using unionfs for the past 6 months or so, and, if you've followed my threads in this group, am pushing several limits as far as the OS is concerned in a 32bit environment (especially with regards to vnodes) ... so far, other then the very very occasional directory inode crashes, any problem that I've had has been related to kernel structures ... My 'heaviest server' right now is running: neptune# df -t union | wc -l 55 and my other servers around 30 or so ... I'm of the belief that problems don't, and won't, get fixed unless ppl are both using the feature, and providing bug reports for them ... so far, thanks to the help of several FreeBSD kernel developers, there have been a few bugs 'knocked off' and fixed in 4.x ... and, hopefully over the next few months, I can help knock off a few more ...

Hello! I'm also confused with getting _stable_ packages. How does it actually occur? If I update the ports collection with cvsup, it becomes to "current". (tag=.) I think there is no alternative, tag=RELENG_4 does not fetch the tree. How are stable packages chosen, or does portupgrade find the latest available or something?

The terminology is confusing, but it's not really complicat= ed:=20 The FreeBSD build cluster basically builds packages for RELENG_4 and=20 5-CURRENT, for all available platforms, from the same, unified=20 ports-collection. These are mirrored to various ftp sites around the globe.= =20 Now look at the directory on FreeBSD's primary ftp server that contains=20 various packages for the i386 platform:=20 ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386 . If you compare for example=20 ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.6.2-release/x11 , ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.8-release/x11 and ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/x11 , you wi= ll=20 notice that they all contain different versions of XFree86-libraries:=20 4.2.0_1, 4.3.0_1 and 4.3.0_3. This because they all represent different=20 _snapshots_ of the ports collection. So the "stable" packages are not build from a (nonexistent) RELENG_4 ports= =20 collection, they just represent a snapshot of the ports collection at a tim= e=20 where FreeBSD's RELENG_4 branch itself is -STABLE (as in uname -a output). = As=20 you can see in that ftp directory, this works in a similar fashion for=20 5.0-RELEASE vs. 5-CURRENT. =2D-=20 | Michael Nottebrock | KDE on FreeBSD | ,ww | | michaelnottebrock@gmx.net | --- | ,wWWCybaWW_) | | --- | http://freebsd.kde.org | free `WSheepW' | | http://tigress.com/lofi | --- | node II II | --Boundary-02=_Lxg0+tbqMFik3ut Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA+0gxLXhc68WspdLARAnvkAJ9FIxzaDaAoxotOGtrWUJwl/yh+MwCeNqk2 pQFLAzcaT6BigkTR+AP/W6s= =h6p/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Boundary-02=_Lxg0+tbqMFik3ut-- From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Mon May 26 06:12:33 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AED1E37B407 for ; Mon, 26 May 2003 06:12:33 -0700 (PDT) Received: from smtpzilla1.xs4all.nl (smtpzilla1.xs4all.nl [194.109.127.137]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A166643FA3 for ; Mon, 26 May 2003 06:12:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Dennis@pinetree.nl) Received: from list1.xs4all.nl (list1.xs4all.nl [194.109.6.52]) by smtpzilla1.xs4all.nl (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id h4QDCVjG009937 for ; Mon, 26 May 2003 15:12:32 +0200 (CEST) Received: from list1.xs4all.nl (localhost.xs4all.nl [127.0.0.1]) by list1.xs4all.nl (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id h4QDCVPP027448 for ; Mon, 26 May 2003 15:12:31 +0200 (CEST) Received: (from root@localhost) by list1.xs4all.nl (8.12.9/8.12.9/Submit) id h4QDCVUp027445; Mon, 26 May 2003 15:12:31 +0200 (CEST) From: "Dennis Ortsen" To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Via: news2mail at list1.xs4all.nl Date: Mon, 26 May 2003 15:13:05 +0200 Message-ID: <3ed212be$0$49103$e4fe514c@news.xs4all.nl> Subject: pam-mysql and freebsd 4.7 X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 26 May 2003 13:12:34 -0000 Hi everyone, I'm using freebsd 4.7 and want to authenticate some services using the pam-mysql module. I can authenticate successfully when I use the normal out-of-the-box methods, but when I try to use the pam-mysql module, I get nothing... I've got postfix running, and postfix is succesfully using mysql thanks to it's great usability. But when I want to use Courier IMAP/POP to work with pam-mysql (in /etc/pam.conf), it doesn't appear to work at all... Normally, when you cd yourself into a ported application (/usr/ports/security/pam-mysql) and type make, followed by make install and when needed, follow any other instructions on the screen, it'll work. I turned on loggin in mysql, so I can see any connection made and any select statement made, but the attempts used with pam-mysql are not logged at all. Which simply means that pam-mysql can't even connect to the mysql server. I've been searching with my friend Google, but can't find anyhting that might help me... It's very likely that I overlooked a few things, but I'm kinda wandering in a maze right now... I'm stuck... What I did was install a plain FreeBSD 4.7 from the CD's. I selected the maximum security (which means no service is started by default). Next, I installed a plain mysql. I installed a plain postfix with mysql support. I installed a plain Courier-IMAP/POP3. When I use the default pam authentication methods, no problem, everything works fine. But as soon as I want to use pam-mysql for POP3 and IMAP, no connection is made to mysql... What am I missing here??? Any help much appreciated..

Below you can see iozone results of the same disk connected to the primary/ secondary controller versus the promise one. Promise ATA100 controller: ========================= Version 1.02a ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random- -Per Chr- --Block-- -Rewrite- -Per Chr- --Block-- --Seeks-- Machine Size K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP /sec %CP damocles 1G 7285 18 7235 3 5198 3 18830 58 19332 7 180.5 0 VIA 82C686 ATA100 controller: ============================ Version 1.02a ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random- -Per Chr- --Block-- -Rewrite- -Per Chr- --Block-- --Seeks-- Machine Size K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP /sec %CP damocles 1G 24301 63 25047 11 13182 8 29843 85 30678 12 185.1 1 There is a big diference, 7MB/s connected in the promise and 24MB/s in the 686 and using UltraDMA-100 in both cases. Transfers between ATA devices are even worse, certain combinations give me transfer rates as low as 1MB/s :-? I tried with other disks/ata cables and the results where identical. If I boot GNU/Linux in the same machine all disks work as expected in the promise controller, so this make me think that it's a specific problem with FreeBSD. Until now, I haven't had any luck searching in the mailing list archives about this problem so I'm trying to asking here. Does anyone know where the problem could be?

Has anyother experienced this? If you use the port version without flags, it will look for files in /usr/local/etc (as indicated in the man page, although you probably can't see it because the system man page for named is in the way). The port definitely doesn't create a named.conf file for you, although the one in /etc/namedb/ will work as a start. You could also create a symlink in /usr/local/etc to /etc/namedb/named.conf. If you'd prefer to replace the system version of bind with the one from the port, then use the PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND8 compile option for the port.

Now I understand this, finally. ;) The reason why I would go for a little older package "snapshot", is that those packages would be all available. Unfortunately, the current tree does not have all ports available as packages. But if I go to an older ports snaphot (e.g. using the time tag), those are not available either as a complete collection of packages (except for releases). A complete and recent snaphot of both tree and packages would be nice... So, just use the current and get what I can and the rest from sources.

I think the problem is situated in your /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db and not in any index-file of your portstree. Have you tried to remove the /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db file and rebuilding it with 'pkgdb -vF' ? (Well, move the file to somewhere else before deleting it ofcourse :-)) I'm not sure if that's the problem, but I recall having a similar problem once (the ruby-errors) and this solved it.

The simplest solution is to disable the ACPI timer in loader.conf: debug.acpi.disable="timer" Alternatively, you can leave the ACPI timer in but use the kern.timecounter.hardware sysctl to select the TSC or i8254 timer instead (the TSC has less overhead but doesn't always work on SMP systems) DES -- Dag-Erling Smorgrav - des@ofug.org From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Tue May 27 06:23:38 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C933C37B401 for ; Tue, 27 May 2003 06:23:38 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mta04.mail.mel.aone.net.au (mta04.mail.au.uu.net [203.2.192.84]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 916A843F85 for ; Tue, 27 May 2003 06:23:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rbyrnes@ozemail.com.au) Received: from pootah.ozemail.com.au ([63.60.5.180]) by mta04.mail.mel.aone.net.au with ESMTP <20030527132334.EOPO26931.mta04.mail.mel.aone.net.au@pootah.ozemail.com.au> for ; Tue, 27 May 2003 23:23:34 +1000 Message-Id: <5.2.1.1.2.20030527225315.02543d90@127.0.0.1> X-Sender: pop.ozemail.com.au/110/rbyrnes@127.0.0.1 (Unverified) X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.2.1 Date: Tue, 27 May 2003 23:22:24 +1000 To: stable@freebsd.org From: Rob B Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Subject: portupgrade issue 4.8-STABLE X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 27 May 2003 13:23:39 -0000 Hi all, Having a bit of a problem with portupgrade on a -STABLE machine: [root@erwin]/root: portupgrade -aRn ---> Session started at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:00 +1000 closed stream ---> Session ended at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:01 +1000 (consumed 00:00:01) [root@erwin]/root: pkgdb -F does the same thing.

Note that you can gdb the live kernel and get a stack backtrace of any stuck process. gdb -k /kernel.debug /dev/mem (or whatever) proc N (e.g. vnlru's pid) back All the processes stuck in 'inode' are likely associated with the problem, but if that is what is causing vnlru to be stuck I would expect vnlru itself to be stuck in 'inode'. unionfs is probably responsible.

The vnode subsystem is *VERY* sensitive to running out of KVM, meaning that setting too high a kern.maxvnodes value is virtually guarenteed to lockup the system under certain circumstances. If you can reliably reproduce the lockup with maxvnodes set fairly low (e.g. less then 100,000) then it ought to be easier to track the deadlock down. Historically speaking systems did not have enough physical memory to actually run out of vnodes.. they would run out of physical memory first which would cause VM pages to be reused and their underlying vnodes deallocated when the last page went away. Hence the amount of KVM being used to manage vnodes (vnode and inode structures) was kept under control. But today's Intel systems have far more physical memory relative to available KVM and it is possible for the vnode management to run out of KVM before the VM system runs out of physical memory. The vnlru kernel thread is an attempt to control this problem but it has had only mixed success in complex vnode management situations like unionfs where an operation on a vnode may cause accesses to additional underlying vnodes. In otherwords, vnlru can potentially shoot itself in the foot in such situations while trying to flush out vnodes. -Matt From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Tue May 27 16:00:37 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A391837B401 for ; Tue, 27 May 2003 16:00:37 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hub.org (hub.org [64.117.225.220]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 09F0843F75 for ; Tue, 27 May 2003 16:00:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from scrappy@hub.org) Received: from hub.org (unknown [64.117.225.220]) by hub.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 681016BCED2; Tue, 27 May 2003 20:00:32 -0300 (ADT) Date: Tue, 27 May 2003 20:00:32 -0300 (ADT) From: "Marc G.

With apologies to our many Adaptec friends here in FreeBSD-land, I've been quite pleased with my Tekram DC390W for over 4 years now: sym0: <875> port 0xd400-0xd4ff mem 0xf2000000-0xf2000fff, 0xf2800000- 0xf28000ff irq 10 at device 14.0 on pci0 sym0: Tekram NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-20, SE, parity checking This controller and the associated UltraStar disk drive have migrated across two different systems with me and have been flawless. I have a DDS-2 DAT drive and a Zip drive (!) on the SCSI-2 bus and the UltraStar on the wide bus. Are you certain the added expense of SCSI is worth your money compared to ATA100 or 133? The other drive on this machine is a new Western Digital 80GB at UDMA100 and it is quite fast. -- Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?

Well, my Tekram DC-390U (Symbios 53C875 chip) works with 4.8 and is supported AFAICT. My 5.1 machine doesn't have such hardware (it has an aic7880-based adaptor instead), but check http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/hardware-i386.html#AEN33 this lists what FreeBSD 5.0 has supported. -- Matthias Andree From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Wed May 28 15:58:27 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5911A37B401 for ; Wed, 28 May 2003 15:58:27 -0700 (PDT) Received: from lakemtao02.cox.net (lakemtao02.cox.net [68.1.17.243]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6BF2843FA3 for ; Wed, 28 May 2003 15:58:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from eqe@cox.net) Received: from [192.168.0.102] ([68.110.210.240]) by lakemtao02.cox.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.05 201-253-122-122-105-20011231) with ESMTP id <20030528225826.XBZO24359.lakemtao02.cox.net@[192.168.0.102]> for ; Wed, 28 May 2003 18:58:26 -0400 From: Eriq Lamar Organization: Darkronin.net To: stable@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 28 May 2003 18:58:32 -0400 User-Agent: KMail/1.5 References: <200305280935.18800.eqe@cox.net> In-Reply-To: <200305280935.18800.eqe@cox.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200305281858.32838.eqe@cox.net> Subject: Re: need to know if there will be support ie. drivers for tekram ultra 4 wide scsi X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 28 May 2003 22:58:27 -0000 I'm building another server and must decide on scsi card the tekram DC-390U4W looks very promising to me but need to know if it will be supported or not in 4.8 or 5.1.

Sign, Eriq ps yes I did post this earlier but did not say which adaptor dc-390u4w seems to be new and not well known yet. but I do know dc-390u3 is a great peice of work and is supported.

I was following the suggestion in the Handbook to have my refuse file include the unnecessary languages. However, this has the undesirable interaction with portupgrade to cause the dreaded 'deorigin' error. I removed my refuse file, reluctantly did a cvsup to download *all* of the languages, even though I have no way to use or understand any of them, and then I was able to resume using portupgrade. Either someone should change the Handbook to make it clear that if you follow the suggestion and actually *use* the suggested refuse file you will then be unable to follow the other suggestion and ever use portupgrade, or else fix portupgrade so that it does not dump it guts out if a language dependency is missing. Very frustrating and totally unnecessary.

Oh, wait, it's a 53C1030, which seems to be supported on 5-current by the mpt driver. No man page though. Matt Jacob (mjacob@) seems to be working on it most recently, perhaps you should solicit his input directly.

That is all well and good, but the HANDBOOK makes no mention of the fact that I have to go poring though pkgtools.conf looking for mysterious settings to put in place. Since the HANDBOOK gives a specific suggestion for the refuse file and since it mentions portupgrade, it should also mention the fact that if you use a refuse file you need to update pkgtools.conf. Trying to remember every little obscure configuration file is a royal pain in the ass. That is what the HANDBOOK is for, to help me remember all of these obscure details. /Joe From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Thu May 29 17:48:33 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 15A7D37B401 for ; Thu, 29 May 2003 17:48:33 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mail.lambertfam.org (www.lambertfam.org [216.223.208.55]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 66B5D43F3F for ; Thu, 29 May 2003 17:48:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from lambert@lambertfam.org) Received: from laptop.lambertfam.org (laptop.int.lambertfam.org [10.1.0.2]) by mail.lambertfam.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6058334D2A for ; Thu, 29 May 2003 20:48:30 -0400 (EDT) Received: by laptop.lambertfam.org (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 30B838574; Thu, 29 May 2003 20:48:13 -0400 (EDT) Date: Thu, 29 May 2003 20:47:49 -0400 From: Scott Lambert To: Joe Kelsey Message-ID: <20030530004749.GB80109@laptop.lambertfam.org> References: <1053998248.14371.79.camel@zircon> <20030527100237.68b361c3.bruno.van.den.bossche@pandora.be> <20030529010428.GA26817@bebop.thehutt.org> <20030529014046.GE13756@arsenic.theshell.com> <1054254876.968.57.camel@zircon> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <1054254876.968.57.camel@zircon> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.1i Resent-From: Scott Lambert Resent-Date: Thu, 29 May 2003 20:48:13 -0400 Resent-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Resent-Message-Id: <20030530004813.30B838574@laptop.lambertfam.org> Subject: Re: portupgrade issue X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 30 May 2003 00:48:33 -0000 On Thu, May 29, 2003 at 05:34:36PM -0700, Joe Kelsey wrote: > On Wed, 2003-05-28 at 18:40, Peter Avalos wrote: > > On Wed, May 28, 2003 at 09:04:28PM -0400, Jerry A! wrote: > > > On Wed, May 28, 2003 at 05:51:33PM -0700, Joe Kelsey wrote: > > > : follow the suggestion and actually *use* the suggested refuse > > > : file you will then be unable to follow the other suggestion and > > > : ever use portupgrade, or else fix portupgrade so that it does > > > : not dump it guts out if a language dependency is missing. > > > : > > > : Very frustrating and totally unnecessary.

I have had a refuse file that excludes the language ports for years in 4-STABLE and 5-STABLE, without bothering to set IGNORE_CATEGORIES. I keep adding new languages as they show up. Portupgrade doesn't care. cd /usr/ports/; make index; will show some errors, but that is purely cosmetic. Look elsewhere for your problem. I would suggest you start by deleteing portupgrade and ruby ports and reinstalling them. -- Scott Lambert KC5MLE Unix SysAdmin lambert@lambertfam.org From owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Fri May 30 02:47:05 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3063D37B401 for ; Fri, 30 May 2003 02:47:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fmx1.freemail.hu (fmx1.freemail.hu [195.228.242.221]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C5CBB43FB1 for ; Fri, 30 May 2003 02:47:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kovacspeter2@freemail.hu) Received: (qmail 28441 invoked from network); 30 May 2003 11:47:02 +0200 Received: from fm6.freemail.hu (195.228.242.206) by fmx1.freemail.hu with SMTP; 30 May 2003 11:47:02 +0200 Received: (qmail 64668 invoked by uid 3421979); 30 May 2003 11:46:54 +0200 Date: Fri, 30 May 2003 11:46:54 +0200 (CEST) From: =?ISO-8859-2?Q?Kov=E1cs_P=E9ter?= To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Message-ID: X-Originating-IP: [81.182.49.118] X-HTTP-User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=ISO-8859-2 Subject: mux.pid X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 30 May 2003 09:47:05 -0000 Hello, I have posted this question at the Hungarian BSD list and the FreeBSD newbies list as well, a couple of weeks ago, but no one replied to me.

First post here, so please don't bother if it's not the right place to post those kind of questions. I'm currently running a 4.7-release (upgrade to 4.8 planned but not yet started) on my production box. As I would like to setup a small WLAN (major use for my notebook, other clients are possible) I need to know which cards are really supported. The handbook is IMHO not clear about that (the chipsets are documented but how do I know which card is using what chipset as the manufacturers doesn't really name the chipset?). I've got a list of possible WLAN NICs and am wondering if somebody has any experience using one of them with FreeBSD 4.x? Netgear WG511 (Cardbus) or WAG511 (Cardbus, 5 + 2.4 GHz) SMC 2802W (PCI) or 2835W (Cardbus) D-Link DWL G520 (PCI) or DWL G650 (Cardbus) Belkin 802.11g/+ (don't have a product name by hand, PN PCI: F5D7000, PN Cardbus: F5D7010 - not yet on market) All of these cards are 802.11g devices (54 MBit/s). What about support on FreeBSD for these devices? Any experience? I would like to setup one FreeBSD box (4.7 / 4.8 or even 5.0/5.1) as a router and have at least one notebook connected wireless (running both Win2k and FreeBSD). As I was reading that the high speed wireless devices are having a better operating range compared to 802.11b devices, I don't want to install 802.11b devices.

The handbook is IMHO not clear about that (the chipsets > are documented but how do I know which card is using what chipset > as the manufacturers doesn't really name the chipset?). You just hit the nail on the head.Several manufacturers have changed chips with no change in packaging. D-Link does have a web page telling you how to figure out which chip your card has for firmware update reasons, but that does not help when you are buying one. To far too great an extent, it's a matter of trying it and seeing f it is recognized.

Maybe some day, but not any time soon. I've had a "working" driver for Atheros hardware for several months now but am unable to make it available because of a bug that renders it unusable in noisy environments. This is not a problem with the hardware. This is a problem in my code that has been very very difficult to identify. The driver supports all Atheros products used in 11a, 11a+b, and 11a+b+g cardbus and mini-pci cards. The driver is for 5.x systems and is unlikely to ever be backported to 4.x because it depends on many changes in the network infrastructure. Until then folks are pretty much stuck with 11b cards based on chips from Intersil.

Or what else could run the > program again? If you installed saslauthd via the security/cyrus-sasl2 port there is no need to start it from rc.local. The port installs the file saslauthd.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, which is the startup file for saslauthd. As far as i can see it is set "executable" by default, so the first program start comes from your rc.local and the second from saslauthd.sh. I suggest that you remove the lines from rc.local and use the startscript that comes with the port.

You are correct about the env variables, but it is not the files you named. I had already checked them, and I checked them again after reading your post. Searches for "proxy" and "3128" turn up nothing.

It took me two weeks, but I finally realized that I could grep the /usr hierarchy. The answer popped up at about the twentieth match. I had put some stuff in a .bash_ file where it didn't belong, and then forgetten about it when I set up squid for tranparent proxying. When I copied my .bash_ files to the new system with no squid, the garbage came with it. Instant headache. Bob Hall
