These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental development code and obsolete releases. Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The report has been examined by a team member and evaluated. f - feedback The problem has been solved, and the originator has been given a patch or a fix has been committed. The PR remains in this state pending a response from the originator. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested.

The manual page itself looks pretty good. Though I can't verify its technical accuracy, I did find a few grammar things and typos. Please excuse any strange formatting that may occur in this email, since this is the first time that I've done this. #1 The fields have the following meanings: e_ident This array of bytes specify how to interpret the file, I believe that "specify" should be "specifies". #2 e_ident This array of bytes specify how to interpret the file, contents. Within this array everything is named by macros, which start with the prefix EI_ and may contain values which start with the prefix ELF. The following macros are defined: Once again, should "specify" be "specifies"? An array specifies, bytes specify. #3 SHN_COMMON Symbols defines relative to this section are common symbols, such as Fortran COMMON or unallocated C external variables. Should "Symbols" be singular? #4 The main difference between the 32-bit and the 64-but program header lies only in the location of a p_flags member in the total struct. Should "64-but" be 64-bit? #5 PT_INTERP The array element specifies the location and size of a null-terminated path name to invoke as an interpreter. This segment type is meaningful only for executable files (though it may occur for shared objects). However it may present it must precede any loadable segment The last sentence in this does not make any sense to me. #6 .data This section holds initialised data that contribute to the program's memory image. This section is of type SHT_PROGBITS. The attribute types are SHF_ALLOC and SHF_WRITE. Initialised should be "initialized". #7 .data1 This section holds initialised data that contribute to the program's memory image. This section is of type SHT_PROGBITS. The attribute types are SHF_ALLOC and SHF_WRITE. Initialised should be "initialized". #8 .init This section holds executable instructions that contribute to the process initialisation code. When a program starts to run the system arranges to execute the code in this section before calling the main program entry point. This section is of type SHT_PROGBITS. This section holds executable instructions that contribute to the process initialisation code. When a program starts to run the system arranges to execute the code in this section before calling the main program entry point. This section is of type SHT_PROGBITS. The attributes used are SHF_ALLOC and SHF_EXECINSTR. Initialisation should be "initialization" in both occurrences. Is Initialize with an "s" a British spelling? #9 .relNAME This section holds relocation information as described below. If the file has a loadable segment that includes relocation, the section's attributes will include the SHF_ALLOC bit. Otherwise the bit will be off. By convention, ``NAME'' is supplied by the section to which the relocations apply. Thus a relocation section for .text normally would have the name .rel.text. This section is of type SHT_REL. Not sure if this is an error in the file or just my system acting funny. I had an blank rule between "name" and ".rel.text" #10 STB_WEAK Weak symbols resemble global symbols, but their STB_LOPROC This value up to and including STB_HIPROC are reserved for processor-specific semantics. Once again this may just be an error on my machine, but the STB_WEAK sentence cuts off as shown above. That is all I found this time through. - Nick Sanders To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Mon Sep 20 18:31:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from voyager.thundercat.com (voyager.thundercat.com [203.37.173.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ED95214A27 for ; Mon, 20 Sep 1999 18:31:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dross@thundercat.com) Received: from mistake (ras1.thundercat.com [203.37.173.201]) by voyager.thundercat.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2232.9) id SRXHTKPD; Tue, 21 Sep 1999 11:22:37 +1000 Message-ID: <005e01bf0435$42bfff40$963ca8c0@zedstat.com> From: "David Ross" To: Subject: Sorry Date: Tue, 21 Sep 1999 23:28:38 +1000 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0059_01BF0489.08809B60" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0059_01BF0489.08809B60 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable My email program chucked a wobbly and mailed a personal email to three = different mailing lists...

Once installed, this worked except for the handbook, which didn't install until I removed the existing /usr/share/doc/handbook directory, whereupon it worked fine for both 3.3-STABLE and -current. This problem may not have occurred had I build all languages, but I commented everything but en* out of the Makefile. I notice, however, that there's now no faq.ascii or handbook.ascii, although it seems they are now called faq.txt and handbook.txt (I know they can be downloaded from ftp.FreeBSD.org, but are usually not quite up to date). How do I build a single-document text version (non-HTML) of the faq and the handbook?

This must clearly be an error on your machine. I think your follow-up mail deals with this. My test here is: .It Dv PT_INTERP The array element specifies the location and size of a null-terminated path name to invoke as an interpreter. This segment type is meaningful only for executable files (though it may occur for shared objects). However it may not occur more than once in a file.

This is really a problem on your machine: .It Dv STB_WEAK Weak symbols resemble global symbols, but their definitions have lower precedence. That's what I have.

I'm still working my way through the source code to figure out exactly how everything works. There are currently two undefined tags (FreeBSD-Current): -G and -F. The -G flag apparently lets you set trusted groups, while the -F flag apparently sets hosts you trust as masters (not sure about this yet). There are also some minor notes which will need to be added (like the fact that timed will automatically set the -M flag if you use the -G or -F flags.) The actual content rewrite will begin tonight, and I will hopefully have a draft ready by tommorow. Please let me know if you have any feedback regarding the new layout (this is also my first man page writing experience, so you may find some rather funky errors). - Nick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Tue Sep 21 20:16:33 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca (undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca [129.97.204.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D560414EFB for ; Tue, 21 Sep 1999 20:16:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rwmtse@undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca) Received: from Psytse (rn-re123b12.uwaterloo.ca [129.97.33.56]) by undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id XAA13867 for ; Tue, 21 Sep 1999 23:16:29 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <001001bf04a0$9cf8e920$38216181@uwaterloo.ca> From: "Rosa Tse" To: Subject: Broken Link Date: Tue, 21 Sep 1999 23:17:25 -0300 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_000D_01BF0487.7760EC80" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01BF0487.7760EC80 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I'd like to report the following broken link: http://www.ca.freebsd.org/tutorials/newuser/newuser.html Rosa ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01BF0487.7760EC80 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I looked it over and I like the changes. However, I think the summary of the flags should be at the top (like most (good) manpages have it). Also, when rearranging, it becomes very clear that one paragraph in the orignal page is repeated in content. I cut it out. While I was rearranging that, I tried my hand at some language/clarity/style fixes too. However, there is one technical point that really needs to be settled. Does the '-F' switch always imply '-M' even if the localhost is not one of the arguments of '-F?' I _know_ that if I run a machine with the following, # timed -F timehost Where timehost != localhost, that the machine _will_ act as a master on other networks to which it is connected. Spacing and some other things got rearranged by emacs while editing, so the diffs are pretty confusing. My whole new version is a MIME attachment. -- Crist J.

It synchronizes the host's time with the time of other machines in a local area network which are also running .Nm Ns . The time servers will slow down or speed up the clocks of their respective machines to bring them all to the average network time. The average network time is computed from measurements of clock differences using the .Tn ICMP timestamp request message. .Pp The following options are available: .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl M Indicates that this machine may become a .Nm master if necesary. .It Fl t Flag enables .Nm to trace the messages it receives in the file .It Pa /var/log/timed.log . Tracing can be turned on or off during run-time by the program .Xr timedc 8 . .It Fl d Flag is for debugging the daemon. It causes the program to not put itself into the background. .It Fl i Each time this flag appears, the network name following (see .Xr networks 5 ) will be added to a list of networks to ingore. All other networks to which the machine is connected are used by the time daemon. .It Fl n Each time this flag appears the network name (see .Xr networks 5 ) is added to a list of valid networks. All other networks are ignored. .It Fl F Used to create a list of trusted hosts. .Nm will only accept trusted hosts as masters, and if it finds an untrusted host claiming to be master, .Nm will suppress incoming messages from that host and call for a new election. .El .Pp The .Fl n and .Fl i flags are meaningless if used together. Both flags require that their arguments are actual networks to which the machine is connected. .Pp A .Nm running without the .Fl M or .Fl F flags will always remain a slave. .Pp If the .Fl F flag is not used, .Nm will treat all machines as trustworthy. .Pp The service provided by .Nm is based on a master-slave scheme. When .Nm is started on a machine, it asks the master for the network time and sets the host's clock to that time. After that, it accepts synchronization messages periodically sent by the master and calls .Xr adjtime 2 to perform the needed corrections on the host's clock. .Pp It also communicates with .Xr date 1 in order to set the date globally, and with .Xr timedc 8 , a .Nm control program. If the .Nm master cannot be reached, then the slaves will elect a new master from among slaves running with the .Fl M or .Fl F flag. .Pp Normally at startup .Nm checks for a master time server on each network to which it is connected, except as modified by the .Fl n and .Fl i options described above. It will request synchronization service from the first master server located. If permitted by the .Fl M or .Fl F flag, it will provide synchronization service on any attached networks on which no trusted master server was detected. Such a server propagates the time computed by the top-level master. .Nm will periodically check back to see if that master has disappeared. If it finds that there are no trusted masters, it will begin the election process on that network. .Sh NOTES .Pp One way to synchronize a group of machines is to use an .Tn NTP daemon to synchronize the clock of one machine to a distant standard or a radio receiver and .Fl F Ar localhost to tell its .Nm daemon to trust only itself. This way, .Nm timed will always consider itself to be a master, and will not adjust the local clock settings (which would undo the changes made by the .Tn NTP daemon). .Pp Messages printed by the kernel on the system console occur with interrupts disabled. This means that the clock stops while they are printing. A machine with many disk or network hardware problems and consequent messages cannot keep good time by itself. Each message typically causes the clock to lose a dozen milliseconds. A time daemon can correct the result. .Pp Messages in the system log about machines that failed to respond usually indicate machines that crashed or were turned off. Complaints about machines that failed to respond to initial time settings are often associated with "multi-homed" machines that looked for time masters on more than one network and eventually chose to become a slave on the other network. .Sh WARNINGS If two or more time daemons, whether .Nm or another .Tn NTP daemon, try to adjust the same clock, temporal chaos will result. If both .Nm and another time daemon are run on the same machine, ensure that a .Fl F flag listing only the local machine is used, so that .Nm never attempts to adjust the local clock. .Pp The protocol is based on .Tn UDP/IP broadcasts. All machines within the range of a broadcast that are using the .Tn TSP protocol must cooperate. There cannot be more than a single administrative domain using the .Fl F flag among all machines reached by a broadcast packet. Failure to follow this rule is usually indicated by complaints concerning "untrusted" machines in the system log. .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /var/log/timed.masterlog -compact .It Pa /var/log/timed.log tracing file for .Nm .It Pa /var/log/timed.masterlog log file for master .Nm .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr date 1 , .Xr adjtime 2 , .Xr gettimeofday 2 , .Xr icmp 4 , .Xr timedc 8 .Rs .%T "TSP: The Time Synchronization Protocol for UNIX 4.3BSD" .%A R.

In the latest versions they also include ~ise, but only as an *alternative* spelling. I suspect that it is because Americans use ~ize that most people assume that we, in the UK, should use ~ise and because of this widespread (mis)spelling it is now included in the OED.

In the latest versions they also include ~ise, but only as an *alternative* spelling. I suspect that it is because Americans use ~ize that most people assume that we, in the UK, should use ~ise and because of this widespread (mis)spelling it is now included in the OED.

Now for the technical point about -F . . . When you use the -M flag, the program sets a integer variable called Mflag to 1. When you use the -F flag, the program will also set this variable to 1 (thus, by using the -F flag you automatically indicate that this machine is eligable to become a master). Also, when you use the -F flag, timed.c will add the local machine's hostname to an array which contains the list of trusted hosts (those who we accept as masters). Thus, if we have a machine called bahfish.bah.net, and we call timed using: timed -F www.hotbot.com Timed will set both the master flag and add the trusted host, so the call above is the same as: timed -M -F www.hotbot.com bahfish.bah.net Does that answer your question? - Nick 622F 07DD 2F14 86DB B4D1 B807 AACC D086 623A 67F6 On Wed, 22 Sep 1999 cjc@scitec.com wrote: > The following reply was made to PR docs/11978; it has been noted by GNATS. > > From: cjc@scitec.com > To: fishy@hotbot.com (Nick Sanders) > Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, cjc@scitec.com > Subject: Re: docs/11978: timed(8) manpage does not define '-F' switch > Date: Wed, 22 Sep 1999 12:38:34 -0400 (EDT) > [SNIP] > > > However, there is one technical point that really needs to be > settled.

Let me know the details how to download the handbook . Hmm. Try right-clicking on the filename, and then choose the "Save as local file" option, which should download it. Alternatively, try downloading the appropriate .tgz file from ftp.FreeBSD.org:/pub/FreeBSD/doc/, and then running it through pkg_add.

(sorry, I couldn't resist.) Here's some stuff I'd like to tackle in the next few months, but obviously I'd welcome other people to contribute, and I'd also like others to suggest more. The resulting list should be documented somewhere, fdp-primer(?), or the Contributing section of the handbook. Application-oriented: DNS on FreeBSD (query tools, server tools, validation tools) (http://rucus.ru.ac.za/~nbm/doc/dns/article.sgml for a bad start) Chat programs on FreeBSD (IRC, ICQ, AIM) (http://rucus.ru.ac.za/~nbm/doc/chat/article.sgml for a bad start) Email on FreeBSD (qmail, exim, sendmail, mutt, elm, pine, &c. stuff like rbl) Applications in Linux Mode Development-oriented: make world documentation (variables, targets, optimizations, &c.) make release documentation (variables, targets, optimizations, &c.) ports make documentation (variables, targets, optimizations, &c.) (above three may be in the same book/article, actually) porting applications (more indepth stuff based on the handbook section, and examples of when variables and stuff are needed) Administration-oriented: Administering a student server (book, experiences in student server administration) Surviving an IRC server (some input from DES and company about useful configuration stuff) High performance Web configuration Exploring Graphical Configuration tools (SWAT at the moment, and NetMAX(?)) Surviving multiple administrators (things like RCS, may be a bit too short, may be included in administering a student server book.) Other stuff: An introduction page, which is also an index to the FDP documentation, and lists web sites like freebsd.org, freebsdmall, daemonnews, and so forth. This would also have a link to the generated list of documentation for installed packages (unless you're the web server version of this document). A User Group article, if there's enough interest, possibly with a few in-depth looks at existing thriving User Groups, and how they put it all together, and suggestions for starting your own, finding users, and other things. Making FreeBSD pretty - an eyecandy article with stuff like splash screens and screen savers, and maybe pointers to FreeBSD-related themes at (e.g.) themes.org. On the more wacky side, maybe a Humour of FreeBSD article, with things like "How many FreeBSD hackers does it take to change a lightbulb", Berkeley California song, the Danish Axe, how long sheldonh and I spoke on IRC until he realized I was sitting in the next booth (sorry, just checking if anyone is paying attention), and why "Tasks for junior documentation hackers" could be amusing. Any more?

I'm not much of a programmer but I had read that you are looking for unsupported hardware to be donated, and this I figure I can help with. In the past, being the poor soul I was, I managed to be 'enrique swavvy' with local big business and computer places/manufacturers and get lots of free stuff. I figured now that since FreeBSD is quickly becoming my fav, I could try to help if you need it. My ideas were writing local business telling them of my project to get hardware for the FreeBSD cause. In the past, my experiences with big business' was that they would rather give me the hardware for my educational use then throw it away. The stuff that was rather useless to me I ended up selling. So, this is my plan, I could get this hardware stuff, email you guys what I got, what you dont need, I could sell and donate the money to you. I also have a similar plan with large companies doing similar, except with new hardware. Anyway email me back, and if you think my ideas suck, I would be glad to help with something else (hopefully hardware/networking stuff). Later on.

I'm making a jump to FreeBSD from Windows, and trying to administer a little 3-5 node network off my ADSL line. I don't think that currently people like me are as well served as possible by the documentation (or culture) that's out there. For example, when I posted to the questions list about how to do name serving, I think every single response told me to Buy The O'Reilly Book (I'm surprised BTOB hasn't been hallowed by acronymity along with RTFM). When I said "Geez, do I really have to read a 500 page book to learn how to do DNS for my puny network?", a lot of people got mad at me for being lazy and ignorant. But come on! That's just an example.

Unfortunately, the question you asked, DNS, just isn't a 20 word answer. Maybe if you'd asked about one tiny part of DNS, perhaps it would have been, but it's not. If you think this is one big conspiracy against you, then I *very* reluctantly would tell you that you'll really have to consider going back to Windows. We're not out to get you, we would like you to succeed, but the answers are NOT simple, else the book wouldn't be that fat. > > That's just an example.

You can get guides that introduce you to Unix administration, O'Reilly sells a fine one, as do many others. They give you enough info often to figure out what your problem is, but they don't usually give you enough to do your own setups from scratch, hence the larger books. We're really not out to get you, but the answer stays the same. Go visit your bookstore, or buy the FreeBSD book from Walnut Creek. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C programming, Electronics, 213 Lakeside Dr. Apt.

A lot of your response was sort of strange. I don't recall claiming there's some sort of conspiracy, I don't remember asking for a twenty word answer, and that "go back to Windows" stuff is just silly.

Right now I'm working on a section for the handbook which will teach admins how to set up named (without any domains associated with it), and how to set up named with a domain (as primary/sec master). Its true that there are many topics which can get messy (dealing with firewalls, delegating domains, etc), but setting up basic DNS easy enough to teach. Still, I recommend the O'Reily book on DNS and BIND, since it makes a very good reference. But, IMHO, you can still setup a nice, working DNS setup without it. - Nick 622F 07DD 2F14 86DB B4D1 B807 AACC D086 623A 67F6 On Thu, 23 Sep 1999 chris@tourneyland.com wrote: > >Unfortunately, the question you asked, DNS, just isn't a 20 word answer. > >Maybe if you'd asked about one tiny part of DNS, perhaps it would have > >been, but it's not.

Now THAT sounds like fun. if yor target audience was made up from experienced dns admins then sure you could write such a book... but for the target audience you are implying to reach, id suggest that such a book would be all but owrthless, hell a book with 1000 pages mighnt be enough detail given the sliding in current educational standards ... some skill that authers and sys admins seem to have forgotten is that of reading and writing. i'd be happy to bet my next 2 or three pension cheques against your success. because the basic premise upon which you have built your argument is entrily wrong. that being the idea that beginners need to know less about setting up and running (physically) small tcp/ip networks. going back to you original premice, the class b setup of a large campus tcp/ip setup. this can be far easier and require far less maintenace than a "simple" class c based netork built around a dozen or so physical machine located in several geographically diverse areas. size in tcp/ip netowrks is mearly a matter of scale, it is nt a matter of increased complexity. ergo to your argument. once you know the basics of dns&bind (and the dsn&bind book does a reasonable job of covering most of teh basics) then you will find that netowrk complexity not size is the most daunting prospect of setup and the more experince, be it from actual builds or the reading of many many and larger and larger books in association with you own experimentations will lead to a more stable form of confidence. take note beginners need bigger books, if only to impress the people who know even less than we do .. grin. take care jonathan -- =============================================================================== Jonathan Michaels PO Box 144, Rosebery, NSW 1445 Australia =========================================================== To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Fri Sep 24 17:57:10 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from monsoon.mail.pipex.net (monsoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id BF55B14CD2 for ; Fri, 24 Sep 1999 17:56:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 14902 invoked from network); 25 Sep 1999 00:56:29 -0000 Received: from useraf07.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

Zelkin" Hi Wolfram, I have reviewed www/en/cgi stuff and found that some .cgi's have "#!/usr/local/bin/perl" string. I think it's not good since perl5 is not ports dependant. Also I've took a look and found that freebsd.def file in same directory is used only by dosendpr.cgi, and it takes two or free variables which freely can be moved into script itself and then freebsd.def can be removed. PS: BTW, there update for www/en/cgi/ftp.mirrors present in docs/12773. Is it ok that I am using send-pr's docs category for sending PRs for www tree ? -- Sincerely Yours, | phantom@crimea.edu (primary) Alexey Zelkin | phantom@scorpion.crimea.ua (home) | ICQ: #6196584, FIDO: 2:460/12.26 >Description: cgi notes >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Sat Sep 25 15:50:47 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 00AF31563F for ; Sat, 25 Sep 1999 15:50:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.9.3/8.9.2) id PAA27983; Sat, 25 Sep 1999 15:50:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: from baerenklau.de.freebsd.org (baerenklau.de.freebsd.org [195.185.195.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BF2FB1521C for ; Sat, 25 Sep 1999 15:45:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wosch@panke.de.freebsd.org) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by baerenklau.de.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with UUCP id AAA24543 for FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org; Sun, 26 Sep 1999 00:45:05 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from wosch@panke.de.freebsd.org) Received: (from wosch@localhost) by paula.panke.de.freebsd.org (8.9.3/8.8.8) id WAA04542; Sat, 25 Sep 1999 22:34:06 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from wosch) Message-Id: <199909252034.WAA04542@paula.panke.de.freebsd.org> Date: Sat, 25 Sep 1999 22:34:06 +0200 (CEST) From: Wolfram Schneider Reply-To: wosch@panke.de.freebsd.org To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.2 Subject: docs/13960: Consulting group in Melbourne, Australia Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org >Number: 13960 >Category: docs >Synopsis: Consulting group in Melbourne, Australia >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: Sat Sep 25 15:50:02 PDT 1999 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Wolfram Schneider >Release: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT i386 >Organization: >Environment: To: www@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Consulting group in Melbourne, Australia Date: Tue, 27 Jul 1999 12:34:26 +1000 From: Benno Rice Hi, We're a consulting/development group in Melbourne, Australia and we were wondering if we could get a listing on the consultants page on the FreeBSD site.

The question has arisen as to how best to handle this. Do we want the documentation to be targetted at one specific version of FreeBSD (and if we did, which version -- -stable, I imagine)? Or do we want to be able to document as many versions as we can? I'm conscious of the fact that as we update the docs for new versions we're obliterating information that's probably useful to people who have older systems. Yes, they can pull the information about of the CVS repository as necessary, but it's not a particularly user friendly thing to force them to do. On 22 April this year a message from me to -doc talked about this. I'm repeating the whole thing below in the hope it will kick start a discussion this time.

Do you mean the OS attribute? The DTD says --OS: Operating system to which element applies; no default-- which is the closest match I can think of. I thought there was another one that was more appropriate but a quick scan through the DTD doesn't show anything promising (of course, we could always add one). > There are a couple of places where version specific text would be > really useful: e.g., the Handbook currently refers to disks by their > pre-3.x names `sd[0-9]', while post 3.1 disks are named `da[0-9]' > (see PR docs/11215). > > Can/should we use Docbook's facilities to handle version specific > documentation?

The same question had occured to me when I was doing the conversion, but I ignored it then because I had too much else to concentrate on :-) First, I think it's a good idea if the Handbook covers more than just the latest version of FreeBSD, so including content that refers to previous versions is a good thing, and to be encouraged. Having said that, I'm not convinced as to the best way to do it. A number of possible approaches spring to mind. 1. You can use s (or other elements, possibly ) with a suitable to indicate the version that it applies to. See http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/FreeBSD/make-world/make-world.html for an example of that approach. I don't think this scales well, and it makes it difficult to pull out a version of the documentation which (for example) only contains text appropriate for version 3.1 or 2.2.8. 2. You can use the OS attribute, and duplicate elements with different values for this attribute. Perhaps <para os="RELENG_22">Disk devices look like <devicename>sd<replaceable/nn/s<replaceable/n/</devicename>.</para> <para os="RELENG_3">Disk devices look like <devicename>da<replaceable/nn/s<replaceable/n/</devicename>.</para> Or even <para>Disk devices look like <devicename os="RELENG_22"/sd<replaceable/nn/s<replaceable/n// <devicename os="RELENG_3"/da<replaceable/nn/s<replaceable/n//.</para> A pre-processor would go through the SGML, leaving only those elements that either have no OS attribute, or have a specific value in it. 3. Use parameter entities; <!DOCTYPE book .... [ <!ENTITY % releng.22 "IGNORE"> <!ENTITY % releng.30 "IGNORE"> <!ENTITY % releng.31 "IGNORE"> ]> ... <![ %releng.22 [ <para>Disk devices look like <devicename/sd/.</para> ]]> <![ %releng.30 [ <para>Disk devices look like <devicename/da/.</para> ]]> <![ %releng.31 [ <para>Disk devices look like <devicename/da/.</para> ]]> and so on. Still quite cumbersome, but doesn't need a pre-processor to strip out elements with the wrong OS attribute value. 4. Use general entities and parameter entities <!DOCTYPE book ... [ <!ENTITY % releng.22 "IGNORE"> <!ENTITY % releng.30 "IGNORE"> <!ENTITY % releng.31 "IGNORE"> <![ %releng.22 [ <!ENTITY disk.device "sd"> ]]> <![ %releng.30 [ <!ENTITY disk.device "da"> ]]> <![ %releng.31 [ <!ENTITY disk.device "da"> ]]> ]> ... <para>Disk devices look like <devicename/&disk.device;/.</para> This would also work, but would quickly lead to a profusion of general entities, which is probably over confusing. Incidentally, none of these tackle an important issue -- some changes might only affect certain releases before being superceded. For example, for a long time, the main config file was /etc/sysconfig. Then it was /etc/rc.conf. Then /etc/rc.conf.local. And now it's back to /etc/rc.conf again. The time line was something like 2.0 -> 2.2.5 /etc/sysconfig 2.2.6 -> 2.2.8 /etc/rc.conf 3.0 -> 3.1 /etc/rc.conf.local 3.1 -> -current /etc/rc.conf [ I might have some of the details wrong, but it'll illustrate this point ] There were 10 releases between 2.0 and 2.2.5, and 3 between 2.2.6 and 2.2.8. We need some way of either saying (a) This content applies to all these versions or (b) This content applies to all versions between these two values Whichever way we do this, a third application is going to need to parse this information out of the document, as I don't think this can be done in SGML. Perhaps we should extend the DocBook DTD and add two new attributes, OSVersionMin and OSVersionMax for the minmum and maximum FreeBSD versions that the element applies to? As you can see, I don't have any quick answers to this problem.

LOCALBASE isn't defined in /usr/share/mk/* or /etc/make.conf, and I'm loathe to make building the doc/ tree depend on the ports/ tree. If LOCALBASE is standard, it should move into one of the above files (/etc/make.conf I would've thought) first. Does that make sense?

Perhaps, rtld.1 should be installed into share/man/man1aout?

Their server is a single FreeBSD machine, transferring more than 7 terabytes (as of November, 1997; yes that is terabytes!) worth of files every month. The configuration details are available to those interested in building simililar systems.
