Configuring Windows 95 Configuring Windows 95 to act as an attached resource on your LAN is relatively simple. The Windows 95 network configuration must be slightly modified to use the FreeBSD system as the default gateway to the ISP. Perform the following steps: Create the Windows 95 "hosts" file: In order to connect to the other TCP/IP systems on the LAN you'll need to create an identical copy of the "hosts" file that you installed on the FreeBSD system in Section 3.4. Click the "Start" button; select "Run..."; enter "notepad \WINDOWS\HOSTS" (without the quotes) and click "OK" In the editor, enter the addresses and system names from the hosts file shown in Section 3.4. When finished editing, close the notepad application (making sure that you save the file!). should include sample \WINDOWS\HOSTS files for your Larry.my.domain example. You've included sample FreeBSD pages, why not the Win pages? IMHO, YMMV, and thanks for the manual. Also, helpful would be the ability to d/l the PPP Primer for off-line perusal without generating a lot of paper pages. But it sure looks like something I'm going to be using in the near future. Thanks for putting it up. -- ---------------------------------------- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApplications angussf@geoapps.com Tucson, Arizona ---------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Mon Mar 1 10:20:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 766D315651 for ; Mon, 1 Mar 1999 10:20:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.9.2/8.9.2) id KAA59755; Mon, 1 Mar 1999 10:20:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix, from userid 32767) id 1A10015462; Mon, 1 Mar 1999 10:14:05 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <19990301181405.1A10015462@hub.freebsd.org> Date: Mon, 1 Mar 1999 10:14:05 -0800 (PST) From: gson@araneus.fi To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org X-Send-Pr-Version: www-1.0 Subject: docs/10331: pccardd(8) claims FreeBSD does not support LKMs Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org >Number: 10331 >Category: docs >Synopsis: pccardd(8) claims FreeBSD does not support LKMs >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon Mar 1 10:20:01 PST 1999 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Andreas Gustafsson >Release: 3.0-STABLE >Organization: Araneus Information Systems Oy >Environment: FreeBSD gufa.araneus.fi 3.0-STABLE FreeBSD 3.0-STABLE #0: Mon Feb 8 12:31:54 EET 1999 gson@gufa.araneus.fi:/usr/sup/src/sys/compile/GUFA i386 >Description: The pccardd(8) man page says: Since FreeBSD does not currently support loadable kernel modules, any irq specifications in the configuration file must match the config entry for the kernel.

This, of course, has nothing to do with -doc; I'm copying -questions on the issue. First, the standard install is three file system partitions and a swap partition, so I don't understand how you got only one unless you asked for it. Secondly, not all BIOSes have this limitation any more. And finally, yes, I suppose we should recommend LBA addressing. Disks are rather a moving target at the moment, and we're just trying to keep up. > Some lesser things. A good thing is that several HTML docs come > with it. So why no HTML browser like lynx?

That sort of thing can be truly > infuriating. Possibly. Nevertheless, the version we supply is straight from the XFree86 project, and it does support "the Matrox" (well, the Millenium, anyway). This could be a documentation problem with the XFree86 distribution.

We also want to install a Proxy Server like Squid, so we would like to ask you some questions: Can we use this kind of computer for these proposals? Are there any difficulties about hardware with HP NetServer? Could you give us some advice? Thank you very much for your attention. Best Regards. The Binh.

Yes. I have one LH3 2xPII/400 here and it works very well with FreeBSD. Keep in mind that Squid is really efficient (it uses threads instead of forking a new process for each request, for example), but any proxy server software needs a large quantity of memory and mass storage. Let's say at least 128 MB RAM and 4 GB dedicated disk space for a low-end installation. It would be nice if your LH3 had the second CPU installed, too... but this shouldn't be a strict requirement. Anyway, the requirements depend from the load you'll be facing. > Are there any difficulties about hardware with HP NetServer? The only problem is the internal hardware RAID system: HP NetRAID. It isn't supported by FreeBSD, so you can't use it with FreeBSD. Use the two AIC-7880 controllers. If you absolutely need RAID, you have to buy a DPT card or a SCSI-to-SCSI controller from Mylex, CMD, etc. We recently bought a CMD-5440 and it's a very good product. I also know that there's an "unofficial" driver for some Compaq RAID card(s). If your machine will be a Squid server only, probably you don't need RAID. > Could you give us some advice? Install the HP utility partition, then install FreeBSD 3.1 without modifying the boot block and track the 3.1-STABLE tree. You will find more info about STABLE on the website, starting from the applications' page. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.
