Do you have a public interface in order to do nat?
The first ethernet card seems fine. However, in order to do NAT, you have to
have an interface to be routing to.

Once you configure your public interface, then read the manpage for natd (all
the way at the bottom) and it has exact instructions on how to do this.

When I did this the drives were da0 and da1 but today I've restored to use another 3 drives (they are all 300Mb SCSI) and the inital drives are now da1 & da2. Vinum is working okay but I want to create and vinum setup (this time probably a raid-5 setup.) If I do it using da0, da3 and da4 will I mangle the existing vinum setup (though I guess I could just re-arrange the SCSI-ID's). Also is it possible to re-do the vinum configuration without destroying the inital setup (it's nothing critical just a pain). Finally - has anyone ever considered the possibility of doing a vinum module for webmin? (not something I could do unfortunately).

I am in the process of doing some serious upgrading on my 3.2 machine and am wondering what the magic hook is to get CVS/RCS to expand the $FreeBSD$ tokens properly when checking out newer sources (with cvs) which have these in them instead of the old $Id$/$Header$/etc. I have pulled up to the 3.4 version of cvs and rcs, but I can not find anyplace other than some slightly cryptic setup in RCS which would possibly expand the list of tokens to expand. I am assuming that something set in my environment or some undocumented switch to cvs might do the trick.

(I was told that a recovery would be less painful if drives are mounted in sync mode - in case of a breakdown.) - Why does a simple 'mount' command tell me that both sync and async reads and writes are being performed on me FreeBSD box?

I had the same problem when the FreeBSD tags first went in. There is a file in CVSROOT called options that controls the tag expansion. As I recall, some of this was undocumented (except by c code). However, if you set up your repository correctly, it will work automatically. If you're set up like I was you probably have the FreeBSD sources as a subdir inside of a local CVS repository. If so, you've got a CVSROOT dir that controls how your local cvs works. There should be another CVSROOT dir that gets downloaded by cvsup along with the FreeBSD sources. What you want to do is use the FreeBSD version of the CVSROOT files when you check out FreeBSD. Do this by treating the FreeBSD files as a cvs repository rather than as a subdir of your own repository. In other words use the -d option to cvs checkout to specify the repository.

It should just work with CVS, I'm not sure about RCS. The important thing for CVS is $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/options: tag=FreeBSD=CVSHeader tagexpand=iFreeBSD I'm no CVS expert, but I think that's all you need. I recall putting a similar thing in my personal repository to see if it worked and I think it did. So, if your CVS tree is up to date it should work. -- 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 Apr 16 9:46:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from brent.tccsweb.com (cr314206-a.crdva1.bc.wave.home.com [24.113.53.176]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5EFC637B556 for ; Sun, 16 Apr 2000 09:46:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brent@talou.net) Received: from talou.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by brent.tccsweb.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA00415 for ; Sun, 16 Apr 2000 09:46:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brent@talou.net) Message-ID: <38F9EE7C.AB009166@talou.net> Date: Sun, 16 Apr 2000 09:46:52 -0700 From: Brent Rector X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Adaptec 1505 problems - timeout, system halts Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Good Day Everyone, I have tried unsuccessfully to install an Adaptec AVA 1505/1515 card into my 3.4 Stable system.

I am running 3.4 release with Sendmail 8.9.3 Sendmail was working fine *before* I tried installing Qmail, I had read that it would be easier to work with since I wont be pushing alot of mail and such. I had followed the Directions on freebsddiary.org to make sendmail nonactive and install Qmail. I then decided to keep sendmail for whatever reason, so here is where I am now. :P I basically backtracked the steps I had performed in making sendmail not run, into making it run again. Once I was finished I went and tested it with sending mail to various people. The following is what I found.. Root can send mail to anyone locally Root can send mail to anyone remotely My regular users get an error when they try to send mail either locally or remotely. The error: Apr 16 06:26:09 heretic sendmail[728]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(asmo): cannot chdir(/usr/var/spool/mqueue): Permission denied My Dir permission for the mqueue is drwx------ per Sendmail from Oreily I realize the error seems kind of obvious but Im at a loss to where I should go to fix this. My question is this.. Would it be easier to reinstall a new version of sendmail over this one, and what would be the safest way to do this? Is Qmail worth the trouble to install and use? And last but not least, Does anyone know where I can fix these error? :) Thanks, I hope to hear from someone!

I've done this myself on a recent installation...

Does anyone know if this insecurity is being looked into, or if there is
already a patch?  There is no mention of any security issue/patch on the
HylaFAX site (as far as I cna tell).

If you're having this problem with other apps also: XFree86 uses
75dpi fonts by default, which look pretty small on high-resolution
screens. You could change it to use 100dpi fonts by default. Edit
/etc/XF86Config, look for the FontPath lines, and change the order of
the following lines
    FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
to
    FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
and restart your X server.

Also, you can set up XFree86 to cycle through available
screen resolutions (eg if base is 1024x768, you can also use
800x600 and 640x480) by using the "hot keys" ctrl alt + and 
ctrl alt -
Then you can zoom in the entire screen with these hot keys.
Your "virtual desktop" will now be bigger than your physical
screen size and you can move around it with a mouse.

Hello,

I'm looking for information about setting up a decent IMAP
server under FreeBSD.  My current plans were to use postfix
as an MTA, and possibly cyrus for IMAP.  We are pretty much
limited to a single box, and will have about 30G of raided
storage for mail.  I'm not positive about what IMAP server
to use though--does anyone have any experience in this area?

I was also hoping for some performance tips on setting up
filesystems, and general tuning of the box.  My concerns are
mostly with the *huge* number of files that will be on the
box though if we went with cyrus.  Would it be best to have
a number of smaller file systems?  What about block sizes?

Also, we are using Kerberos 5 for authentication.  I'm not
sure how this will fit into things--I expect it may require
a bit of coding.  It would be nice not to have any local
accounts on the box though.

Thanks,
Chris

PS, please cc me as well.

I've searched the faq, handbook, lists, etc. and all I've
found is conflicting information about the soundblaster
sound drivers.  I'm running FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE.  Should
I use the snd0 driver or the pcm0 driver?  This is a real
soundblaster pro, not a clone or emulation.

From the docs, I've tried the snd0:

controller     snd0
device         sb0     at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr
device         opl0    at isa? port 0x388

and pcm0:

device pcm0 at isa? port 0x220 tty irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x0


I've tried kernels with both drivers and all I get is static
when playing wav files.  Dmesg recognizes the sb pro, but
something still isn't right.

Can someone send me the exact config to add to my kernel?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to learn more about administering DNS you might want
to look at the O'Reilly book by Cricket Liu et al.  Also resource
listed at http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/ can be usefull.

Your ISP will probably be happy to handle all your domains for you.
Simply make a request of them should be enough.  Your systems will
only need to be "stub" resolvers with a properly configured
/etc/resolv.conf.  But if you want to do it yourself it is realy
not as hard as some of the documentaton makes it sound.

If you have any specific questions then I or others on the list might be
able to help.

Hi folks,

Justa note for the archives...  Lucien found that the problem stemmed
from the drive not being configured according to the ATAPI specs --
ATAPI drives may not be slaves on masterless channels.

My current instalation is very small.  I use sendmail as my MTA

YMMV

Hello,

Previous week I sent a message explaining my problem about using squid with
a leased line. Now, I find out something.

When I looked at squid log files deeply I see that whenever a request comes
squid child process dies with the segmentation fault error and another squid
child process is starting automatically by main process.

The mentioned squid was a 2.3STABLE2. I downloaded it from squid web site
and compiled with '--prefix=/squid' parameters.

I'm using FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE. I also have some FreeBSD 3.5 and 3.3
machines. I also use squid2.3S1 on them as the same way I do in 4.0, but 4.0
seg faulting.

Then I tried to use squid-2.3.tgz from the ports collection and viola, it
runs.

Now, I wonder what made the squid die and what parameters used when
compiling the squid-2.3.tgz in the ports collection.

Regards,

Hello!

I tried to configure my FreeBSD 4.0 for playing midi files and I found
that the old  sound blaster programs for handling the midi sequencer is
not longer available.

Am I right?

is there a way of using the old drivers in version 4.0 ?

Thank you in advance.

I have just finished a long and arduous task of installing an Adaptec
1505 card now recognizes a Zip drive and a Agfa Scanner.

I have also installed the sane port from the ports collection.

Does anyone have a quick 1-2-3 for me to test this tonight... I have
been perusing the sane website without much luck (i.e. trying to find a
quick tutorial on setting up)

All I wanta do is test scan a pic?

Help

hi !

no, you're not :) if you have a fast connection to the internet you should
download the iso-image and burn it on cd afterwards.
/pub/FreeBSD/relases/i386/ISO_IMAGES/ 
another way is to go to www.freebsdmall.com and order the 4cd set there.

OK, here's a nice question.  I have to build a webserver for a 
large site (moving from NT IIS/ASP/SQL Svr7 to FreeBSD/Apache/
MySQL - woohoo!).

I could go out and spend a silly amount of money on a Compaq 
ProLiant 8000 or similar but I suspect that at the smallest 
hint of trouble the "sorry we can't support that O/S" excuse 
would be wheeled out.

So my question is - what do you recommend, would you build it 
yourself or buy branded?  What about particular hardware, mega 
fast processor? Hardware or software RAID? anything I should 
stay away from? etc.

Any advice/opinion is welcome.

Simon

So you've made sure that your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config (and in
particular, DisplayManager._0.authorize) is identical to the ones you've
used on your working hosts.  If so, perhaps you had XDM authorization
compiled in before.

Try deleting your (possibly stale) ~/.Xauthority .

Sheldon.

Um, /var would usually be in /etc/fstab already.  If you've configured
your system so that everything is on a single partition, then you're out
of luck, because quotas work on filesystems, not directory hierarchies.

Any quota you apply to your users on '/' now is going to apply to those
users' disk usage on the whole filesystem, not just in /var.  Consider
creating a separate /var filesystem (which is the default in new FreeBSD
installations).

Sheldon.

In future, please send exact error messages.  What you've shown us here
doesn't really help us. :-)

Anyway, let's try to answer the questions you asked.

The CDROMs include all those packages which can be compiled from working
ports and which we are allowed to distribute.

My first suspect in trying to sort this out on my own box would be
hardware, yes.  You haven't recently started overclocking, have you?  If
so, try running your CPU at the prescribed speed.  If not, it's time to
make sure your CPU cooling equipment is still functional, that your
pluggable bits haven't come loose.  Failing that, it's probably time to
start swapping bits out. :-)

That's probably because of numerous security-related fixes that went
into 2.2.7.  If you really need to work up a 2.2.6-RELEASE, you're
probably best off pulling the sources with the RELENG_2_2_6_RELEASE tag
and building it yourself.

I've copied the author of the new ata driver, since I don't remember
seeing this myself.  If he has any ideas, it'll be good to get them into
the freebsd-questions archives.

This file has nothing to do with Linux.  You can probably get away with
copying this file off the live filesystem on your 3.4-RELEASE CD.

It certainly does matter if there is no master on the secondary channel.
While other operating systems do support this configuration, it violates
the ATAPI specification and is not supported by our driver.  You should
be okay once you've configured the drive as the master on that channel.

I would highly recommend Release 2.28. 

I don't think there are many differences, but I can say one of my
webservers running 2.28 has been up 300+ days now .. it is a 486-DX266
with 32 Meg of Ram and it consistently pumps out about 35 GB a month in
web traffic alone.

IMHO

Is it a PnP card?  If so, I'd have thought (from the pcm(4) manual page)
that a simple ``device pcm'' should suffice.  For a non-PnP card, your
pcm0 line looks right.

I don't think the sbc0 device is appropriate, but I'm not sure.

Also, the LINT file suggests that you want the sscape and sscape_mss
drivers, but again, I'm just giving you possibilities, since nobody else
seems to have answered your question.

So if I were in your shoes, I'd first try

	device pcm

then

	device pcm0 at isa? port 0x534 irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0

then

	device sscape0 at isa? port 0x330 irq 5 drq 0
	device sscape_mss0 at isa? port 0x534 irq 10 drq 1

Good luck!

Ciao,
Sheldon.

Hey everyone!

Well after futzing with an AVA 1505 I have now installed a zip drive and
scanner.

My question is this, the zip is installed as "da0"

How on earth do format and mount this device, I have tried so many
combinations of da0s and rda0? I think I am going in circles...

I am installing FreeBSD from a DOS partition from the .iso file.

I have extracted from it.

Made the boot floppies.

Started the installation.

I got passed all of the basic stuff..... partitioned my hardrive.. have
the three partitions... everything goes fine until the installer starts to
look for the /bin directory on my DOS partition.

Here's the thing.
I have three partitions on my C drive
During the partitioning it recognizes my drives as ad0 ad1 and ad3
the partition I'm installng from should be ad0s2 or ad0s3 but it chokes
everytime I try to set the install to boot from DOS or as another file
system.

What am I missing?
Can the installer see all three partitions?
Should I redo my DOS drives?

thank you,
Steffin Spears

 +------------------

My opinion?  Three approaches:

1) Match what you have in the NT server and watch the new box scream.  
2) Spend the same ammount of money on the new server as you did on the old
    server.  Max out everything you can in the price range.  
3) Price out the dream system with all the bells and whistles then back off
    when the budget breaks.

Use an integrator unless you have the time to do it all your self.  I've
had good luck with most of the big guys when it comes to obvious hardware
problems. Some folks specialize in FreeBSD &c I've used ASA Systems
and Telenet Systems both proved very reliable.

Get several quotes for different configs and see what you like best.

Other things to think about?

    Raid 5 writes are significantly slower than spindle writes.

    Many DBAs prefer a mix of drive types for different table useage
    patterns.

    Solid State Drives are starting to become affordable.

    It is sometimes faster to newfs and recover than it is to 
    fsck a big disk.

    Fail soft is more reliable than fault tolerance.

Well you did ask for opinions :-)

This does indeed work, I can set the foreground / background colors I lik=

But it seems that only the virtual console I'm currently working on uses
the colors I set using vidcontrol. So how can I set my system up so that =
at

(for example) the look of the cursor in that file, man rc.conf doesn't sa=

anything about setting colors...

Another question about vidcontrol: I tried to change my video mode (well,=
 I
did only want to try it, I'm happy with the default...). I entered
vidcontrol -i mode and I got a list of modes supported by my system. When=
 I
entered (for example) vidcotrol 80x60 it said "Invalid argument", althoug=

this mode was listed as being supported. What could be the problem? Answe=

to this question are also welcome, although the first question about the
colors is more important to me.

Greetings,

Well first of all thanks to Marc for his concise ,down to the matter
explanation.Error message about missing vga font is gone.
But doscmd is still not tamed.
I try to boot-up from floppy disk ,message I got was:
    "Not enough place to create DOS boot partition"
It is translated and may vary somehow from the canonical message.
The original message is in German and sounds so:
     "Kein Platz vorhanden um DOS Bootpartition zu erstellen".
I have attached some files in hope the whole matter will be clearer for
you with these files.
Files are:
1)configur it is my /etc/doscmdrc file
2)dosresererved file contains output of command ls -al /usr/dos/c
3)debugoutput is what I got from following sequence :
     doscmd -bxD -d debugoutput
     tail -100 debugoutput
I use fbsd 3.3-release on PII 450Mhz with 64Mb in case it matters

Any solutions, suggestions, hints are highly welcome.

I would be glad to provide additional information related to problem in
case you should need it.

Kind Regards,
Ariel

Hi

As far as I know the when installing a newer pkg version it will just
overwrite files in the older version, And should cause no harm. However
If you try to delete the older version of a pkg you will in effect
remove the newer files from the new pkg. The only way I see to get
around this is force the pkg to be removed with pkg_delete -f
"name_of_pkg" and reinstalling. However In some cases you might need all
three versions. The best way to check is cd /usr/port/what_ever/pkg and
examine the file PLIST this will give you a list of all the files
installed and there location. By comparing these you can determine if it
is safe to remove the old versions as they will have the same file
locations. On my system pkg_info reports several versions of the same
package. This can also happen when installing a new pkg, when It needs a
newer version of a pkg already installed. It would be nice if there 
some way of cleaning up older versions of pkgs when they are not needed
without reinstalling. 


regards,

Dave

Going from memory (don't have the books in front of me) the sequence
is something like this (or you could use sysinstall):

basic sequence is something like:
	disk in drive (obvious)
	fdisk (see man page)
	disklabel (see man page, basically use "all of disk",
	           dangerously dedicated, etc)
	newfs
	mkdir 
	mount /dev/ 

More specifically (please double check man pages/book first):

	SCSI Zip drive, on the first SCSI host,
	at SCSI id 0:

	fdisk /dev/da0
	disklabel /dev/da0
	newfs /dev/da0s1c  (c is the "whole disk partition")
	mkdir /zip
	mount -t ufs /dev/da0s1c /zip

Hi

I have a DELL Dimension L550 PC (i810 chipset, Ethernet and Creative Labs SB
on board) with Windows98 on it and want to install FreeBSD on another
partition. I already managed to slice the Windows98 partition with fdisk -
so it should be ok. I tried both the AutoBootCDROM and the installation disc
thing. Everytime the devices are probed and the screen turns blue, with the
message "Probing devices (this can take a while)" it does nothing any more.
The HD LED flashes from time to time but it's just doing nothing and after 8
hours of watching the blue screen I gave up, tried again, a dozen times,
without success. I had 13 conflicts though, but removed some hw in the
kernel settings before the devices are probed, so I didn't have any
conflicts but the result was the same again. 

What can I do to solve that problem?

Could it be a problem, that we already have a LINUX on that partition? We
didn't install a boot-manager or something, it's set to be start from
3.25"disk. I want to remove the LINUX because we are switching our
development to FreeBSD, which I hope is more reliable.

Thank you very much in advance for a prompt reply

kind regards

Henning Kukulies

yep. for a SB16, you need a combination of pcm/sbc. Read their
respextive man pages and LINT for more info. There's not to much to
making the change.

I would guess so, somehow, but it's probably more grief than it's
worth. Just go with the pcm/sbc combo as mentioned above.

OK .... strangely enough I haven't had a lot of problems recently with
configuring sendmail despite the many adverse comments I've heard about it,
mind you I did stumble across a one page setup text intended for 
Redhat  that covered the basics quite well
>

Agreed .... I've got public IP addresses but would rather not waste them.
However I haven't a clue in the world what you mean by "virtual IP".
& exactly where to put the "zone file" ?? I haven't been to the site you
provided yet, hopefully that will answer those queries.

I printed out about 37 pages of Apache docs that appear to cover the
issue of name based virtual hosting fairly well ..... at this point I don't
expect to have a problem with configuring apache, its just the DNS

By "geographically diverse" do you mean that the record for
"someplace_else.com" has to be in another location than the
"somewhere.net" machine before INTERNIC will recognize
the "somewhere.net" machine as a "proper" DNS server ??

Yeah thanks ..... I don't think I would have done that exactly, my style is
usually doing something totally way out and creating the most weird error
messages ever seen on the planet :). What does continually amaze me is
how simple most things are in unix once one knows how to do it .... 99%
of the problems I've experienced have resulted from inability to figure out
what on earth the documentation is saying, and thats usually because the
writer has assumed readers know far more than many actually do.

Hello,

I am having problems with multilink ppp.
here is my setup :

FreeBSD 3.4 using mpd
Ascend Max 800

I am able to dialup and establish a mlppp connection 
with the Ascend Box.  Using ping I can see that
I can get better round trip time with 2 connections up.

Here is my problem:

When I start to download using ftp or www  using a test site on
my network, the connection seems to be very slow.
I notice that the "Receive" signal of the modems seem to stop
every now and then.  I also notice that during downloads that
I get better performance with just one link up.

using "show mp"
Multilink Self
		MRRU = 1600
Multilink Peer	
		MRRU = 1500

why are the values different ?

Thanks for your comments.

I'm afraid that in this particular case, for various political reasons
the "ISP" is not in a position to provide the necessary entries, hence 
the need for me to setup a local DNS server 

 Your systems will

Obviously I'm not the only one who believes its " not as hard 
as some of the documentation makes it sound" :) Judging from
most of the unix stuff I've learned to date its probably as simple
as falling off a log, & the problem is simply less than explicit docs.
I've recently produced an entry level tutorial on basic FreeBSD 
gateway / mailserver/ webserver setup for members of our 
non-profit internet access group, and in its simplest form its 
condensed the essentials of the regular thousand page manuals
to only about 7  A4 pages.

Hello!

I have a dumb question:

This is
FreeBSD cichlids.cichlids.com 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #0: Fri Mar 31 16:52:11 CEST 2000     alex@cichlids.cichlids.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/cichlids  i386

which was a 4.0 snap from 02/24/2000 and therefore never a 3.x machine.

now, when I start the setiathome port:

root:/usr/ports/astro/setiathome $ setiathome -email -nice 1
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libc.so.3" not found

I'm lacking an important part, I believe.

Can one give me a hint, please?
(4.0 machines that were 3.x once don't have this problem).

YES, I could link back libc.so.3 with lib.so.4, but this is an ugly
hack for now. Or shall I?

Please reply directly, I'm not subscribed to -questions.

These 3 versions of TCL install different binaries w/different names.  If
you try to delete these packages and some other ports/packages have
dependencies on them, they will fail because they depend on a specific
version of TCL.  You can possibly try hacking these ports to work a
different version of TCL if you wish, but that may or may not work.

I have read a number of posts on this mailing list about getting the above
card
to work with FreeBSD. I am somewhat confused as to what works and does not
so could someone please clarify which version of FreeBSD I need to run to
get the card working. I do not mind at the moment if the modem side does not
work, but the ethernet side I need to get working.

Many thanks

This presumably increases perfomance, but why isn't such a patch default
for FreeBSD?

(Or is this already implemented?)

If async operations are performed anyhow, why don't we just mount the
drives async from the beginning. If FreeBSD chooses to mount drives in
sync or 'non-async' mode as you say, to increase integrity, and async
operations are performed anyway this doesn't help one bit. You still have
problems with integrity, and the drives will just be slower..

Surely we should avoid any kind of breach in integrity, but I mean, a
server breakdown is what it is, and having 200 inodes instead of 300
inodes corrupted doesn't sound like a worthy result of a much slower hard
drive when the server is up. And even if FreeBSD only performed sync
operations, there would still be some parts of the filesystem that are
corrupted?

Maybe I've got it all on backwards, but I've never given much thought to
ufs - it's allways worked for me :-)


Best regards
Rasmus

I think if i've read everything here in this thread, he meant that FreeBSD
by default mounts drives 'non-async' which means all meta-data is written
sync (meaning no caching), while all other data is writen async.  This
gives a combination of speed and integrity.

Since a few days I have massiv problems in compiling libtool-1.3.4 and other
stuff on our FBSD 4.0 box. When typing "make" the script seems to look for
the tarball, but the tarball is alraedy here! It looks for something like
".tar.gz", but not for "libtool-1.3.4.tar.gz". This happens to netpbm and 
other tools, too. On the other hand, since I deleted the previous package of
libtool there occur some errors after typing Make install that reports, that
libtool 1.3.4 is out of date and I should install a newer one ..??????

Hi,

I am attempting to connect up two box (3.4)in my home. I am using two 
different cards 3Com 3c905 (PCI) and 3c509b (ISA). The address are 
192.168.5.5 and 192.168.5.10 respectivly with a netmask of 255.255.255.0 The 
problem is that I am unable to ping across the boxs. I am not using a hub 
thus I am using a cross cable for direct connection. However when I run one 
of the box using win95, I was able to ping each other. Thus I believe that 
there is nothing wrong with the cards and cable. Is there sometime that I 
might have miss out? Hope you all can help me on this. Thanks a lot. 
Regards.

Hey there,

That's correct.  FreeBSD uses it's own filesystem, though once
installed, it can mount MSDOS partitions.

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Marc

Hello guys!

That is not a real question, but an advise requirement :)

Currently I use 4.0-RELEASE, but I do want to track 4.0-STABLE
and I do need anybody explain me in detalis the process (don't
flame me, I had read handbook, but still have a few questions).

I currently don't have online, and even email at my home :(, 
the only thing I had is email in University, thus I desided to
use CTM.

As I understand, the first thing I should do is to subscribe to 
freebsd-stable and ctm-announce lists (is it really essential?).

I should  suscribe to ctm-???? list (what should I put instead 
???? here?) to get deltas by email.

After that I should install the whole source-tree from 4.0-RELEASE,
download from ftp.frebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CTM/ (or their mirror)
all previous deltas (what is their names?).

After that I save all deltas attached to the mail to floppy, put
them into /usr/delta/* , cd to /usr/src and do 
ctm -v -v /usr/delta/src-*
to modify sources.

After that I may do make world monthly.

If I am wrong, correct me please.

And one more question: 
can I do
tar cfz /dos/backup/src.tgz /usr/src
and delete all my deltas, or I should keep all deltas?

Thanks!

PS.

Sorry for my bad english.

        I've been looking around for a new OS, and
read about yours on Cnet. I use my computer for
on-line gaming. Would my windows games be able to run
on FreeBSD3.2? Does it support OpenGL. What advantages
(from a gamers point of view) would I gain from this
OS?

                                           Thank You,

Hello guys!

I do have a little problem with XFree86 4.0 and 4.0-RELEASE

As you understand my video card is S3-VIRGE/DX, XFree86
works with appropriate driver almost fine: the only 
problem is messages:

_XF86BigfontQueryFont: could not attach shm segment
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmat() failed, size = 4096, errno = 24

bombing console.
My kernel has SYSV* options, and that looks strange :(

One more: When I try to switch to another virtual console from X,
it turn off my monitor and completely hang my system :(

And the last one: when I log out X my monitor turns off and to got
it back to life I should switch between virtual consoles, after
that I saw that lines:

waiting for X server to shut down ..........
xinit:  X server slow to shut down, sending KILL signal.
waiting for server to die

Does anybody know what is the problem?
If does - HELP ME, please :)

Maybe it`s a bug in 4.0-RELEASE? Anyway I decided to switch to
4.0-STABLE, or I shoud use XFree86 3.3.x? ;)

PS.

Sorry for my bad english.

FWIW, it seems like a machine with low load / few users is not much
hit by the performance loss of sync operations, so I've left our
FreeBSD machine with its default sync setting, and also changed a
linux machine to sync.  However, we've had the power fail unexpectedly
on plenty of linux machines with async mounts, and never suffered data
loss and rarely had even to run fsck manually -- most of the time it
does an fsck with automatic corrections and continues happily from
there.  No "corruption" whatever.  So using sync mounts on some
machines was only because I've heard that it's safer. 

For an important server you'd be having stable power, reliable
hardware and regular backups anyway -- so it seems to me that async
would be preferable in that case, for better performance...

dump | restore should move all the files that you need, provided
there weren't symbolic links already on that partition before you
do the restore. (in other words restore would overwrite an existing
symbolic link).

but to be safe, check which crypt library you are using:

	ls -l /usr/lib/libcrypt.so

it should say either:

	lrwxrwxrwx  [deletes]  /usr/lib/libcrypt.so@ -> libdescrypt.so

or

	lrwxrwxrwx  [deletes]  /usr/lib/libcrypt.so@ -> libscrypt.so

the DES library will properly cyrpts/decyrpt DES and MD5 encrypted passwords,
and the S library crypts/decyrpts only the MD5 passwords. Check your password
file, /etc/master.passwd, if all the passwords start with "$1", then you use
MD5 ecryption.


Second possiblity is that for some reason the master passwrd database,
in /etc/spwd.db was not correctly created. As root, execute:

	# pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd

--mark tinguely.

I had good luck following the font de-uglification how-to from the linux
documentation project.  I edited my xf86config file following the
guidelines there and it solved a bunch of my font problems (netscape,
lyx, and (x)emacs).  See if it might help you out.  The url is
http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/FDU.html.  There is also a font how-to
there.  Don't have the slightest idea if it's relevant or not.  The
mini-howto is all about X configuration which should be pretty portable
to FBSD.

OK time to stick my neck out... 

I have been ordering my systems from Penguin Computing and installing freeBSD on their systems 
For under 6K I get the Blackfoot 2500 Series. With dual 600 P3 prossessors a Gig of Ram  and 60Gig of SCSI 
LVD 10,000rpm disk space in a  3.5 inch high rack mount  configuration with 4 hot-swapable drive bays.

As far as RAID. always use Hardware RAID for the best performance. but a good RAID controller will cut into your
checkbook for another $1000 or so.  I am not familiar with the cards that freeBSD support but I know they are limited.

Hope this helps a little...

This works, of course, but there's no need to make world just for
this. Go to /usr/src/lib/compat/compat3x.i386 and do a 'make all

Both of you guys obviously haven't understood what the problems
with async mounts are.

First of all afaik Linux's fsck concept of "corruption" is a lot
less stringant than FreeBSD's or Solaris's.  Linux does this to
cheat FS benchmarks to the detriment of users.

With 'non-async' cross linked files/directories "can't happen"
under FreeBSD.  A "cross-link" is when after a crash two filesystem
entities "own" the same blocks on the disk.

Last I checked Linux fsck will just clone the data.

Let's take the worst case scenario and assume that you just rebuilt
the password file database under Linux and at the same time a user
just created a somewhat large file:

Now since meta-data isn't consistant under async it's quite possible
that the password file's inode hasn't been truncated to free it's
blocks while the user's file's inode has been given ownership of
the blocks on disk.

*power goes out*
*machine comes back up*
*user suprised to find bits of your password file in his tempfile*
*administrator suprised to find instance of 'crack' running on
system*

oh joy.

Ok, considering that which do you think is a more reasonable default?

Also note that last I checked in Solaris (version 7) you needed
a special third-party program to turn on 'async' because I don't
think they liked the concept either.

Remeber, FreeBSD's default is 'non-async', not 'sync' so normal
filesystem data _is_ cached, just not the meta-data
(allocations/directories).

As far as making softupdates the default, again you haven't read
everything you're supposed to:

Hello,

I'm using the Name Server on our FreeBSD 4.0 machine.  It will be an
Internet server, so I've put very few DNS records on it (just the web
server, mail, etc. because this machine will eventually be accessable from
the Internet.)  Another server, the Intranet DNS (sadly, a Microsquash NT
4.0 server running DNS and WINS), has complete records for all the machines
in our network.  

The problem is, when I run nslookup to the FreeBSD Internet server and
query names that are not on the it (just on the Intranet server), it gives
the intranet record.  For example:

  nslookup internal-client.mydomain.com x.x.x.4
  DNS request timed out.
      timeout was 2 seconds.
  *** Can't find server name for address x.x.x.x: Timed out
  *** Default servers are not available
  Server:  UnKnown
  Address:  x.x.x.4

  Name:    internal-client.mydomain.com
  Address:  x.x.x.204  

(I've changed the domain name and IP addresses for this email.)

Please, does anyone have any idea what is going wrong with my Internet
FreeBSD Name Server?

I'd suggest installing either just ssh1 or ssh1 followed by ssh2 as
(AFAIR) SecureCRT doesn't support the SSH2 protocol and requires the older
(and more common) ssh1.

Hope that helps.

Hi Everyone!!

I need a little help.
We use freebsd release 3.3.
We want to generate TCP adn UDP traffic on a single link with 100Mbps
capacity. UDP traffic works correctly, but with TCP we are experiencing
problem, particularly the maximum bandwith we can achieve is about 200 kbps 
(we have tested by using ftp on a file of 2Mbyte (approx) and it took
about 30 sec.). What can be the problem??

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
				Tamas

Is there some timestamp which a FreeBSD system periodically leaves

to report the down time.

I'd appreciate any leads.  Thanks.

Hello,

How can I get a Command Buffer on FreeBSD 4.0?  By Command Buffer, I mean
that you hit the Up Arrow and it types the last command you entered.  

I've got this in RH Linux and SCO, so I assume it's easy to do in FreeBSD.
I'd sincerely appreciate your help on this.

Hi,

I setup a FreeBSD 3.3-release and have a wierd error message appearing 
during bootup, actually just before login prompt.

The error message is:
pure squid [286]: can't open /usr/local/squid/logs/access.log: (13) 
Permission denied.
pure squid [343]: can't open /usr/local/squid/logs/access.log: (13) 
Permission denied.

And keep occuring 3 more times with different numbers in the [].

Could anyone give me some suggestion about this error message? Thank you.




Jerry

Sort of, but it's not called setup.exe.  If you look around the website,
you will find instructions on the installation process.  There are two
floppy disk images you will need to get, and a program called
rawwrite.exe.  The installation program is not a DOS/Windows program, but
a bootable version of FreeBSD that fits on two floppies.  Copying these
two files to a floppy disk, you need to use the rawwrite program to create
the floppies.

When you boot the installation floppies, the install program will download
the files you need, based on the choices you make during the install
process.

I really recommed you read the information on the website on installing
FreeBSD before you begin, especially if you plan to have both FreeBSD and
Windows on your computer.  FreeBSD can not run from a Windows partition -
they use different file systems - hence the installation process begins
with partitioning your hard disk.

Because FreeBSD is a completely difference operating system, it doesn't
naturally run Windows software.  There is a commercial software package,
called VMWare, which can be purchased separately, and will allow you to
run Windows software on FreeBSD.  Unfortunately, running game software
under emulation will noticably affect performance.

Unfortunately, if playing games is how you spend most of your time on the
computer, FreeBSD is currently not a very good choice, not for technical
reasons, but for market reasons.   Until FreeBSD (or Linux) attracts a
much larger user base, most game developers are going to concentrate on 
Windows.

On the other hand, if you do more than just play games, definitely take a
look at the kind of software that is native on FreeBSD, and see if it can
meet your needs.  FreeBSD can also run Linux software.  Since FreeBSD and
Linux are more closely related, Linux emulation on FreeBSD does not incur
a significant performance hit.  You won't be able to run Microsoft
software, but there is still a lot of good software available for
FreeBSD/Linux.

No.

Basically as an an alternative root account with a different shell.
(Default shell for 'root' is /bin/csh, for 'toor' it is /bin/sh.)

(Note that 'toor' is 'root' backwards...)

See it as an example of how you can have several usernames with the same UID
and the same home directory but different shells.

Sure, nothing (AFAIK) depends on 'toor' existing.

> His password?

Unless you have changed something the password for 'toor' should be
'*' meaning that it is disabled and you can't login as that user.

Hi all,

I've recently begun mucking around with my bash prompts lately, and, due
to the use of quite a lot of colour, PS1 has become quite long in
characters (though, when displayed, is only about 15 columns, plus the
path).

For some reason, with line editing enabled in bash, readline insists on
WRAPPING lines of text after I type only a few characters (my prompt
happens to be about 70 characters long, and I'm using a terminal with 80
columns)... Thus, after I type about 10 characters at the prompt (still
only on about terminal column 30), it wraps and messes with the
display.  Thus, it looks like bash figures out the wrapping boundary
WITHOUT first filtering out the ANSI escape sequences.

Granted, the terminal is responsible for interpreting the ANSI codes, but
is there a way to make bash ignore them before handling wrapping?

The wrapping doesn't happen if I use `set +o emacs` (thus turning off
readline in bash), but I don't want to lose the command line editing.  It
DOES still happen with -o vi, though.

Has this been documented before?  I couldn't find anything in the bash
manpage or the mailing lists like this.  It smells like a bug, but has
probably been around far too long to be called anything but a feature :-)

Greg,

Thanks for the advice.  I finally found out what was wrong with my
implementation.

The mistake I had made was to assume that the partition being used by vinum was
of a special type, hence I had not gone through newfs first to create a BSD
filesystem.

Re-visiting /stand/sysinstall to create :

/dev/da0s1e from /dev/da0
/dev/da1s1e from /dev/da1

was the solution.  This was the reason why the "disklable -e  /dev/da0s1" would
not write the partition as typ vinum.  Once I had run newfs (which created
da0s1e) I was able to change the type to "vinum"

I'm fairly certain that the orginal problem was caused not starting with fresh
partitions.

1. I now have a new problem for which I require some advice.  The following
output reports that Plex ex-mirror.p1 is faulty.  The volume seems to be
operating correctly but I think that the mirroring function is not happening.
Is there a simple test I can do outside the vinum command set that will confirm
this problem?

2.  Assuming there is some kind of a failure in the mirroring, and that I have
repaired the problem, how do I then get the information to re-mirror onto the
newly attached disk?


Thanks again,

Tom

I think the question was on making async mounts the default
(linux-style).  The FreeBSD mount manpage warns against doing this;
the linux manpage doesn't. (Unsurprising, since it's the default in
linux).

Also, Rasmus's earlier benchmarks suggest that FreeBSD's performance
is 1/4 that of linux on the same hardware.  Is that typical, or some
freak of that particular hardware setup?  How much of that can be
compensated by softupdates (the README suggests a performance gain of
20% less running time and 40% less I/O)?  Is there something
especially dangerous about a FreeBSD async mount, or is the manpage
merely being more "honest" than the linux manpage?  When filesystem
performance is important (say a heavy-duty mail server, or NFS
server), and power/hardware-related crashes are not a worry and backup
precautions have been taken, what would you recommend doing?

Rahul.

Hi,

I setup a NFS server on one of my FreeBSD.
But I will get an error message as below.
Apr 15 22:37:52 freebie mountd[152]: bad xports list line /share

My /etc/exports is as below

/share      -maproot=0 -network 192.168.201.0 freebie freefall

What's wrong with my exports? please give me some suggestions.
Thanks.

Lei

put a \[ before and after the ANSI codes.  Anything between them will not
get used to determine the length of the prompt, for word-wrapping
purposes.

Yes, but I can't find my bookmark.

Ha!  Thanks, Eric...  Somehow that slipped by me.  Actually, the end of
the sequence should be marked with a \], not a \[.  From the bash manpage:

	\[	begin a sequence of non-printing characters,
		which could be used to embed a terminal con-
		trol sequence into the prompt
	\]	end a sequence of non-printing characters

Hello,

I'm using linux_base 6.1 and linux_devtools 6.1 and trying to get a

Ouch.  Any help is appreciated.

I found the nswers on the vinum home page at www.lemis.com,  the only outstanding
issue is that when I start vinum it only brings up one of the mirror subdisks.  I
then have to manually start the second drive in the pair.

	Hi.. I've recentely installed FreeBSD in my other computer, and 
I'm trying to compile the C programs I made before under DOS.
	Suprisingly for me, the GCC compiler couldn't find the "conio.h" 
library!
	Are the libraries used in C under FreeBSD much different from 
under DOS?? What are the main diferences between a C program 
made to run under FreeBSD and one made to run under DOS?

thanks...

NWerneck

I'm currently running 3.4-20000311-STABLE.  As new versions of FreeBSD are
released I run into problems compiling individual ports that I've
downloaded (the latest lftp, for example).  Usually, the cause is an
out-of-date /usr/ports/Mk tree.  Is there an easy, non-cvs way of keeping
this current?

Thanks,

Hi:
It was my understanding that gcc-2.95 came with FreeBSD as the default
compiler.  Is this true?, if so where is it?  I tried to find it on my
system but I couldn't.

Also: Is the system-supplied gcc (assuming there is one) fully functional or 
limited?  Do I still need to make install the port?

Thanks,
John

Let me guess, you're trying to clear the screen? :-)

There isn't a conio.h header in *ix (at least none that I've ever seen).
Clearing the screen in a *ix program is still -- interesting to say the
least :-)

Other than FreeBSD being a totally different, Unix-like multi-user
multi-tasking OS --there are no differences.

(read the sarcasm there :-) )

There are huge differences, way too many to get into here...

If you know  already I suggest you grab a Unix programming book (W Ricard
Stevens' "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment" being among the
best).

With EMC Data Storage Solutions over SCSI you can boot directly off of
that and have no need of any local harddrive with Solaris, and HP-UX
that I know of. Is it possible to do this with FreeBSD as well? I spoke
to an EMC Engineer on the phone but he said he was unsure if it's
supported. Is this supported in FreeBSD 3.4, 4.0 or will be in soon to
come releases? Thanks!

Good.

Take it. It's IMHO the best for Intels (and compatibles)

It supports OpenGL, but no Windows Binaries. Only with a simulator like
VMWARE. But these emulators are slow and a pain in the ass.
But you can run Linux Games.
I run RailRoad Tycoon II for Linux on FreeBSD without problems.

> (from a gamers point of view) would I gain from this

Fact: Gaster Games, but no Windows Games supported.

HTH and Hope you install FreeBSD,
	Freddy

Hi!

Yes. AFAIK. The reason is, that FreeBSD stores access rights, and it can't

Huh?! What does that mean?
Is the Mailing List Broken, that only crazy characters are posted?

Please fix this problem ASAP.

Check the ncurses manpage, it's not as bad as you think.

FreeBSD 4.0 comes with:

~ % gcc -v
Using builtin specs.
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

3.x comes with:

~ % gcc -v
gcc version 2.7.2.3

As long as the device emulates a generic scsi disk I don't see you having
any problems.

That's funny, I did a "man gcc" on my system and this is what shows up

GCC(1)                      GNU Tools                      GCC(1)


NAME
       gcc, g++ - GNU project C and C++ Compiler (gcc-2.95.1)     

It is a little out of date because if you do

jade# gcc -v
Using builtin specs.
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)    

You can see that the release is really 2.95.2. If you are using a
FreeBSD < 4.0, then you have a different setting. The default "C"
compiler for >= 4 is what you are wondering about

Has anyone used any of Comtrols Rocketmodem 
cards under FreeBSD?  I was wondering if the
Rocketmodem II (PCI) is supported or if there
are any plans to support it.  How about any
of the other Rocketmodem cards?

  Thanks for any info,
     Chris

Unfortunately, sync versus async doesn't address that issue.  Even
without an async mount, a file can be allocated blocks on the disk
without having written to those blocks.  Say the program writes 8k
of data to a file with 8k of data.  The kernel allocates a new block
out of the free bitmap, and immediately writes the updated inode - 
but doesn't necessarily immediately write the new data block.  If
the system crashes at that point, and the newly-reserved block was
part of the newly-freed /etc/passwd...

I've actually been bitten by this.  I had written a storage subsystem
which, by virtue of carefully arranged rename calls, should have
made file updates atomic (you either got the old file or the new file,
but always a valid file).  We once had a system crash, and after
fsck had completed, a large number of the files were corrupt.  The
system had been running for months and terabytes of transfers,
with zero detected corruption.  Inspection indicated that corruption
was data that should under no circumstances have existed in the files
in question.  The only explaination I could find was that the rename
had been synced to disk before the data blocks were sync'ed.

This is one of the things softupdates is supposed to fix.  [Since
I didn't trust softupdates at that time, I fixed my problem by
explicitely fsync'ing the file before renaming it.]

Later,
scott

It's the root user with the default shell Bourne (/bin/sh).
you can't login without a password.  everyone has that user, but i don't
ever use it unless i did somthing bad to root (only happend once the
first time i got a copy of FreeBSD at home).  I don't think it would
hurt to get rid of it, but i'd keep it for good measures

Hello,

I may be wrong, but I don't think SecureCRT 2.x supports the SSH2 protocol. 
You'll need to upgrade to version 3.x, or configure your sshd to run with 
ssh1 protocol.

You could look at 'last'.  You should see entries like:

reboot           ~                         Fri 14 Apr 22:48 
shutdown         ~                         Fri 14 Apr 22:39 

If the system was not shutdown cleanly (i.e. a panic, power failure,
etc) you won't see the "shutdown" line.  You could create a timestamp
every minute with cron, just do 'touch /var/log/timestamp' or something
and then check the mtime at boot time.  Even with 'last' you can't get
seconds, so you'd have to read /var/log/wtmp yourself, see utmp(5) for
the format.

We recently ordered and received an Overland Data 15-slot DLT 7000 SCSI-2 
autoloader.  It's connected to our FreeBSD 3.4 machine through an Adaptec 
2940U2W PCI card.  We plan on running Amanda 2.4.1p1 as our backup software 
but before that I want to make sure I can communicate and control the 
device.  Unfortunately, the tool which was suggested:  chio, doesn't appear 
to be communicating properly with the device.  I'm including the dmesg 
output as well as the output from various commands.

 From dmesg output:

I've looked through some of the mailing-list archives and I see problems 
with chio and NCR SCSI cards, but it apparently works without problems on 
Adaptec cards.

Any information would be appreciated.

Hi!

I have written to this list before about my ES1731 soundcard. Now I have upgraded to FreeBSD 3.4 since this version supports the soundcard and it's also found
by FreeBSD now:

zaphod# cat /dev/sndstat 
FreeBSD Audio Driver (981002) Apr 17 2000 11:37:57
Installed devices:
pcm1:  at 0xb800 irq 0 dma 0:0

But when I try to use it with xmms i get "Couldn't open audio" and with
xcdplayer I get "open: device not configured". 

The only thing which I did to the kernel config was:

device pcm0

and then the controller pci0 is also in the kernel config. 

However, anyone got suggestions what I have forgotten or what I'm doing wrong?

TIA, Jan

See PR i386/17228 .
You need to build custom boot floppies with this dirty patch in the kernel.

Just out of curiousity, why not use chg-scsi?

I tried the manuals simple;

$ sendfax -d 2523608 -n /etc/passwd
request id is 3 (group id 3) for host localhost (1 file)

... hmmm no errors there.

then I tried:

$ faxstat 
HylaFAX scheduler on tracker: Running

then I tried: 

$ faxstat -v
Trying localhost (127.0.0.1) at port 4559...
Connected to localhost.
220 tracker server (HylaFAX (tm) Version 4.0pl2) ready.
-> USER tracker
230 User tracker logged in.
-> PORT 127,0,0,1,4,96
200 PORT command successful.
-> LIST status
150 Opening new data connection for "status".
HylaFAX scheduler on tracker: Running
226 Transfer complete.

...that was a little different from the man sheets which said I 
should have got: 

HylaFAX scheduler on tracker: Running
Modem ttyf2 (+1 510 528-9999): Running and idle
226 Transfer complete.

as the last three lines - the (middle) modem line above
seems to be what my status message is missing.
Any ideas where I should look from here?

It's Japanese, which my exmh showed perfectly. The big giveaway is the

I do plan on using chg-scsi when I install Amanda 2.4.1p1 but I wanted to 
make sure I could control the drives with the tools that come 
installed.  I'm fairly new to all this and didn't want to jump into using a 
package without having learned the basics of the device.  Also, if 
something were to happen to the Amanda config or install, I would still be 
able to manipulate tapes in the autoloader.

I do believe I found the source of my problem.  On the control panel to the 
autoloader, you can set the device to work either in Sequential or Random 
mode.  With Amanda, I thought I would run it in Sequential mode so that the 
tapes would be ordered by date.  I started thinking about this and just for 
grins put the device in Random mode.  Lo and behold, all the "chio" 
commands now work.  When I issue the command "chio status -a", I get the 
following:

amanda# chio status -a

I'm a bit puzzled at the "scsi: " but for now I'm just happy that in 
general chio works.

Hello.
Has anyone used freenet6 with freebsd 4.0-stable to connect to the ipv6
network? If so, what numbers need to go where? how to configure the startup
files? All freenet6 gives you is a perl script file, but I don't know
exactly where and how to configure the ipv6 devices. Any help would be
appreciated. =)
Thanks.

I have been frustrated on my multi-boot system because of the
perceived lack of a 3rd button. Then I went into XF86Setup to look at
my mouse settings. There I found that by pushing the wheel down I have
my 3rd button.

I have just been installing a fresh build of FreeBSD 4.0 STABLE and I have come
across a problem that is irritating me to no end.

During my first start of the GNOME Desktop environment the whole system froze
and then when I restarted it (eventually using the hard reset on the box after
ctrl-alt-backspace and ctr-alt-delete didn't work and when an attempt to telnet
in externally revealed everything was frozen) fsck found significant damage to
the system.

Now, I have been locked out of logging in by an error message stating that
ld-elf.so.1 and libcrypt.so.2 are corrupt.

I can log in in single user mode thanks to the good old troubleshooting sections
of the handbook, but my network doesn't seem to be up & running so I can't
replace the files.

I would appreciate it if someone with /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 and
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2 from version 4.0 could e-mail them to me.

Or if someone has another solution please let me know...

Firstly I'm using FreeBSD-3.4 stable, ports cvsupped recently.

but the following blows chunks for me :

cd /usr/ports/palm/prc-tools
make install

It dies here :

gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/ports/palm/prc-tools-binutils/work/build/tools'

Unfortunately, it's all C++ to me, and I don't do weird stuff like that, so I've not got a clue
why it doesn't work.


Can anyone help me with this please, or is the port broken badly ?

Thanks in advance, 

	Steve

Hello
	How can I login into a FreeBSD computer from another, using a 
serial cable connection??
	Is it possible doing this to access resources of the other 
machine, like a modem??


	(translation: I have a great computer that has a modem and 
ru(i)ns Win98, and i want to copy some 20 Mb from it to my 486 
running FreeBSD. I'm wandering if I can do it with serial cables 
connection, and, maybe, use it modem too!   wel, hope that 
does'nt sound so confusing :Q )

	no, just some basic keyboard functions. getchar() to be more 
specific!

	Well, does it have much difference on basic commands, like 
printf/scanf, malloc and openning files?

Been trying to figure this out with no luck. 

I have a 3.2 FreeBSD box with a 200 MB root, 200 MB /var and 200 MB
/usr

I'd like to upgrade it to 3.4 so a friend can compile a program and
then I'm going to wipe it clean and install 4.0 from CDs. It's on
a DSL line, so access to the network is no problem. 

Can I cvsup and build and install sections of the /usr/src directory
individually and then remove those and build the next section? Like
/usr/src/bin and then /usr/src/contrib, etc.? If so, is there a 
particular order to do those in?

Or can I use ftp to install 3.4 over 3.2?

Thanks!

later, david

Not true. Alt becomes "Alt". Which may do nothing in your favorite
applications, but it *is* available as another modifier. Besides,
you'll find that you need Control-Alt-Fx rather than Control-Meta-Fx
to switch back to a text console. Anyway, this is a generic XFree86
issue and in no way particular to FreeBSD.

> When I'm on the console, neither key does anything

For syscons, the "Microsoft keys" have the console keycodes 106,
107, 108, normally mapped to F62, F63, F64. You can remap them any
way you see fit.

> and I have no Meta key. How can I get Alt to be Meta all the time?

Define what you mean by "meta" key.

Uh... all you need to do is run the script... it does "the right things".

Dear FreeBSDers,

Few days ago I installed (yet) another 4.0-STABLE system, thus testing
a Release CD I had made myself. I would like to download the -CURRENT
sources onto this new FreeBSD slice.

I seem to understand that these actions should be taken:

1) the first time I will cvsup the sources, I will have to use the
following tags:
A) "src-all tag=3DRELENG_4 list=3Dcvs" (ie NOT list=3Dcvs:.) in the
standard-supfile;
B) "cvs-crypto" tag=3DRELENG_4 list=3Dcvs" (ie NOT list=3Dcvs:.) in the
secure-supfile.

2) in all subsequent operations, I will be able to use the normal
supfiles (standard and secure) found in /usr/share/examples/cvsup in
my new 4.0-S system.

Is this fully correct ?  Am I missing anything ? Am I a bit paranoid ?
:-)

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,
Salvo

Dear FreeBSDers,

I am running a 4.0-S system (as of a week ago), and I have a few
doubts about the exact meaning and interrelations of some kernel and
firewall settings.

Question I
The kernel options "TCP_DROP_SYNFIN" should (?) be equivalent to a
firewall rule like "add  deny [log] tcp from any to any in
tcpflags fin,syn". Which of those, if any, is "better" (eg more
reliable, or efficient) ?

Question II
The kernel options TCP_RESTRICT_RST should (?) be similar to a=20
firewall
rule like "add  deny [log] tcp from any to any out tcpflags=

rst". I seem to understand that the former *limits* the outgoing "rst
traffic"  whilst the latter *kills* the outgoing "rst traffic". Is=20
this
correct ?
Also, is the former option more "resistant" to massive attacks (scans)
?

Question III
Does it make any sense to use *all* of the following: the
TCP_DROP_SYNFIN, TCP_RESTRICT_RST, ICMP_BANDLIM kernel options; the
tcp blackhole behavio(u)r (level 2) and the udp blackhole behavio(u)r
(level 1); the log_in_vain feauture (/etc/rc.conf); and a set of
appropriate (ipfw) packet filters rules (eg dropping packets directed
to such delicate ports as 6000-6063 etc.)

Am I missing anything (else) ?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,
Salvo

Dear FreeBSDers,

yet another question :-)

If I turn on e.g. the "noatime" option on a ufs filesystem (eg "/" or=20
"/usr"), and I want to have my /etc/fstab re-read, I seem to=20
understand that I have to reboot.

Alternatively, If I do NOT wish to reboot, I should issue a "shutdown"=20
command (with no options whatsoever), unmount the filesystem(s), and=20
remount them.=20

The problems arise with the "/" filesystem. Incidentally, "mount -u /"=20
might damage it. In particular, I seem to understand that switching=20
from read only to read/write is harmless; whereas switching from=20
read/write to read only may actually damage the FS -- especially if=20
this happens a few times.=20

Is there a safe way to turn the option on without rebooting in such=20
cases ? Am I (yawn) missing anything trivial ?

Many, many thanks for your help (and patience !)

Best regards,
Salvo

Hi.

	This is a re-submission. I am still trying to do this install and from
what I 
can ascertain, none of the settings present during the install will make
this card work properly.
Again, this card has been tested and is working. When this card was
working (3.4 stable) I had to explicitly specify its irq in the
pccard.conf, if i relied on auto negotiation it would come up but not
work correctly. So now, already somewhat knowing the answer to my own
question, how can I hax0r the boot disks to achieve this end, ie.
hardcode?

Original message...

Architecture: Dell Latitude Cpi i386.
OS: FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE
NIC's: 3COM Etherlink III and 3COM Megahertz 56k modem.
Media: Floppy disks / FTP via local lan to the internet.

	This box had 3.4-STABLE running without a hitch three days ago. I tried
to cvsup it to 4.0-STABLE
and for some reason while building, i decided to use the -k flag on make
installworld :( . After I finally got it running again I made some
backups i wiped the whole system clean. 

	So with my shiny new install disks, the setup was goin fine, the card
inits and the installation begins. However within a meg or two of
transfer it dies. 

What I have tried:

1) all possible irq/memory configurations within sysinstalls limits.
Including the default recommendations, which did not work.
2) dissabling as many devices as possible via dell's BIO's, to try and
free up the pool.
3) tried the card in a different slot, and remove the other card.
4) a different server
5) set fire to my laptop.

 From the emergency shell if I bring the device down, then re-init, it
begins transfer again, but only for a few seconds. Ping requests lag to
around 300 until it goes down.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

In rc.conf make sure you have:

ipv6_enable="YES"

You might also have to delete the default route if one
gets set before you run the perl script they give
you, with something like:

route delete -inet6 default

Otherwise their script does whats needed.

My network is configured with the cable modem connected to my FreeBSD
gateway machine (into rl0). The FreeBSD machine's second card (ed1) is 
connected to my hub's uplink. The two windows boxes (10.0.0.2 & 10.0.0.4)
are connected directly to the hub. 

I don't completely understand what leaking RFC 1918 addresses are. 
Are these essentially leaked packets from my ISP's local subnet (other
machines in my district) that are being collected by my gateway from the
cable modem? Are these causing the problem or is it an issue of my
physical configuration?

My system message buffer now has 10 pages or so worth of:
arp: 10.0.0.4 is on ed1 but got reply from 00:80:c8:e8:ea:d7 on rl0

I still have a lot to learn about configuring a home network, and I
appreciate both your help and your patience with me as I work through
this. 

Thanks again,
Fred

Hi Nicolau
Yes there are differences - you will need to check out the Unix
I/O stuff (see K&R for dir scanning, file opening etc......)


> Suprisingly for me, the GCC compiler couldn't find the "conio.h"
> library!

I think this is a DOS console library. I think you will have to check
out the Unix stuff for screen programming in the text shell.

I found that Unix has more strict requirements for use of pointers
(DOS lets you away with some things that are not defined - Unix
wont). The file I/O and screen stuff will also require changes to
your code.

Dave

OK, I don't have time to look at this now, but I'll try later.  In the

Right, this is described in the man page:

     volume name [options]

           Define a volume with name name.

           Options are:
	   [snip]
           setupstate

                               When creating a multi-plex volume, assume that
                               the contents of all the plexes are consistent.
                               This is normally not the case, and correctly
                               you should use the init command to first bring
                               them to a consistent state.  In the case of
                               striped and concatenated plexes, however, it
                               does not normally cause problems to leave them
                               inconsistent: when using a volume for a file
                               system or a swap partition, the previous con-
                               tents of the disks are not of interest, so they
                               may be ignored.  If you want to take this risk,
                               use this keyword.  It will only apply to the
                               plexes defined immediately after the volume in
                               the configuration file.  If you add plexes to a
                               volume at a later time, you must integrate
                               them.

                               Note that you must use the init command with
                               RAID-5 plexes: otherwise extreme data corrup-
                               tion will result if one subdisk fails.

I was interested in finding BBS software for freebsd which resembles what
could be found in "Renegade" and other such software for DOS.  Of course
telnet would be a requirement.  I think i'd like FreeWorld, however i
can't get it compile giving an error that Python.h can't be found, however
it is installed on my system.

Thanks,

Scott

Sure it is posable to do this.  There are several packages that
allow the Win98 machine to behave as a term server and a router.
But on the other hand you have everything you need in the FBSD box
(except the modem)

You need to read in the handbook (/usr/share/doc/handbook) about
attatching terminals to your FBSD system and about ppp on a dedecated
connection.    Then you can move your modem to the FBSD box and set it up
as a demand dialup router.

 +------------------

Taking a file system from rw to ro while it is active can cause
some data to be lost. mount -u protects against causing a problem
unless you have the "force" option on.  Taking a fs from ro to rw
while it is active is not a problem.

You can mount and unmount non active file systems to your heart's content
and change their options using -u and mount will do its best to prevent a
problem.

I'd do the experimentation on the command line before committing
it in fstab.  It is safe to run 'mount -a -u'  as long as the changes
in /etc/fstab are benign.

Actually, you add tcp_drop_synfin="YES" in rc.conf.

Same thiong with this one, put tcp_restrict_rst="YES" in /etc/rc.conf

Looking for some advise on the behavior of restore.
While doing a restore of a file from a previous dump. Here is how the
session go's.

restore -i -s 1 -f my.tape.system.com:/dev/nrsa0

restore> add myfile.txt
restore > extract
You have not read any tapes yet.
Unless you know which volume your file(s) are on you should start
with the last volume and work towards the first.
Specify next volume #: 

No mater what I enter it just pops the same message up asking me to 
specify next volume. Unless I enter in 4 as the last volume. That gives me
this message....

Specify next volume #: 4
Mount tape volume 4
Enter ``none'' if there are no more tapes
otherwise enter tape name (default: /dev/nrsa0) 

I enter /dev/nrsa0 it gives me the question again. I enter in none it
gives me the question again. What could I possibly be doing wrong?

Thanks.

Keith

I'm running XFree86 4.0 (binaries from xfree86.org) and 4.0 -STABLE. With
both XMMS and the RealPlayer7 beta, sound only plays while the console
running X is the active one. 

If I switch to another console, RealPlayer will play for a few more seconds
then stop. XMMS will continue playing the current track but won't play the
next song in the playlist until I switch back to X.

My soundcard is an ES1371. Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi

Make sure you have this line in your kernel config file:          
device  ep       
(The driver will not function properly if you try to specify ports and
irqs in your config file) 
That's all the driver needs, In FreeBSD4 the driver autoprobes the
cards. If you have two NICS in your system  you might have to
reconfigure some of your startup files as what was ep0 might now be ep1
and vice versa. Depending on which card is seen first. As far as can't
wake up eeprom error. You might have to boot up in dos and run the
configuration tool which came with your nic and disable plug_and_pray
And run the diagnostic tools to make sure the card is functioning
properly.

Hope this helps,

Dave

I was wondering how would hylafax make your machine  be vulnerable.
Would one attack by way of the modem or by way of an ethernet connection
?? Not that I have any evil thoughts in mind, but I did remove the
FORBIDDEN line and installed this port and would like to minimize the
potential for attacks.

Regards,

Dave

Hi, Paul :
     I am a system engineer. I am studying the FreeBSD with the giga
NIC.
     Now, I used the FreeBSD 3.4 and Alteon AltNIC to test the giga
function. When I use this included driver and MTU=1500 ( I have changed
the tcp window size to 65536). I got the good response. But, when I
changed the MTU to 9000, this system would not run smoothly. We
obviously found the delay (very serious).
     Could you help me to solve this question ?  Is it the memory buffer
problem ?

(My equipments:
    1. HP LPr server with 1GB ram (PIII 500)
    2. Alteon giga NIC for PCI
    3. FreeBSD 3.4
    4. Alteon switch 180 Plus
    We use this server for the www server and the access hit rate was
very high. )

Thanks!


Oyster Liu

Hello,

If you can't off the internet if you did install FreeBSD using a set of 4 cd's
I am sure ytou can install MySQL using the set of CD's

Firstly,

Are those non BSD machines with the T1 connection running some kind of proxy
program. ?

If you are:-

Then you have to setup the following in your root /root/.login and add

# Bypassing the proxy
setenv FTP_PROXY IP_ADDRESS_OF)PROXY
setenv HTTP_PROXY IP_ADDRESS_OF_PROXY

Hello,

Suggestion

Instead of downloading FreeBSD you can purchase the product from www.cdrom.com
is so much quicker.

But before you do anything read the documentation in www.freebsd.org extremely
carefully before hand

Unless you are into games such as Tetris or Kpoker or CHess then you can play
games on FREEBSD but if you want to play games like Quarke or NFS 3 you have to
use Windows because of Marketing reasons. 

Until Software development companies become educated and vendors become
educated about FreeBSD then maybe one day we might get NFS 3 on FreeBSD.

But you can use FreeBSD to setup a quake2 and quake server if you are into this
type of things.

Just a tiny point, if all of the devices connected to this hub are
NICs, you should not need to use an "uplink" port.

That packets from other machines could be reaching your NAT gateway
from the external net is a _possibility._ However, it is very
suspicious that the address happens to be one you are trying to use.

Have you identified the piece of hardware associated with
00:80:c8:e8:ea:d7? Use this command,

  % arp -a

FYI, it's a piece of D-Link hardware.

Also, what is the configuration of each interface (output of 'ifconfig
interface' for both)?

Take a look at the following option from /etc/defaults/rc.conf:

    allscreens_flags=""       # Set this vidcontrol mode for all virtual
screens

Copy it to your /etc/rc.conf file and add the commands you want; these are
sent to vidcontrol on boot, and affect all virtual terminals.

Have you recompiled your kernel with 'options  VESA' included? See
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT.

Excellent!  You might consider cvsup'ing to the latest -STABLE to ensure
the most stable production environment possible.

man dummynet, but dummynet is an ipfw function, so it can not be limited
by user.  If this is for IP based virtual hosting, you can limit bandwidth
by IP.

Why not just advertise a maximum transfer limit, run a monthly log
analyzer that analyzes pertinent transfer logs, and bill users for
overusage?  

If you have problem users/sites that are generating WAY too much traffic
for your CONNECTION to handle, you need to adjust your policies so you can
prohibit gratuitous use of bandwidth by cancelling contracts.

Anyone have an idea as to why this may be? Im not using NATD, ipfw, or
anything else that could be suspect to slowing the throughput down AFAIK.

ideas? Comments? I'd like to get this fixed. Its been this way since I
built the machine. Its a P180MMX 128Mb SCSI everything. FBSD 3.2 Release
using vr NIC driver (DLink)

--- from dmesg ---

vr0:  rev 0x06 int a irq 9 on pci0.11.0
vr0: Ethernet address: 00:80:c8:e8:ad:4b
vr0: autoneg complete, link status good (full-duplex, 10Mbps)
--- end ---

hmm...just thought of this.  It might be just the ftp daemon throttling the 
througput.  I notice the slowdowns mostly when Im ftp'ing but this is 
something I need to chcek on.  I would still appreciate any other things I 
should check.

TIA

Jim

OK, but these DNS settings don't have anything to do with what the
internal machines do for DNS.

Other than the netmask question, it seems OK, except you left out your
firewall rules, 'ipfw show'.

Turn on a tcpdump on the outer interface and ping a DNS server from
the gateway machine. Then, turn on tcpdump on the inside too and
ping from one of the internal machines. Try to pose the tcpdumps to
catch ARP packets and ICMP... cut out other noise if possible.

Hi,

Is there a way to make Adduser send the mail "after" the skel files have
been copied across? As when I changed to the maildir format, the initial
maildir directory structure is not valid when the new user message is sent
to them, so it comes back as a delivery failure.

If there's a way to:
copy skel files
then send email welcoming them etc..

can someone let me know. I've checked the adduser.conf file but I'm not sure
how to configure it even more. Other than that, is there a way I can make
Qmail maybe hang onto it for a minute whilst the Maildir directory is
created?

Thanks,
Andy.

I was the one with the rl0: watchdog timout guy.

I swapped several PCI NICs including ACCTON (which uses MPX chip and rl0
as driver), DFE530TX (vr0) and DFE550TX(ste0).
They ALL have watchdog timeout syndrome under 4.0 release. My final
solution was to revert back to a DFE220 (de1) ISA board and it
worked.....

The problem is just avoided but not solved, could anyone suggest some
solutions?
(or some project developer should be out here examining this problem
more seriously?)

Thanks

Jiawei Ye

Hello

-Running FreeBSD 3.3
-WIth KDE 1.1.2
-I have installed Xscan now all I have to do is compile the kernel to work with
my scanner on the parallel port and then run MAKEDEV.
- I have compiled the kernel previously in a file called /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
 /MYKERNEL

I was wondering what I have to add in my KERNEL in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
/MYKERNEL to get my scanner to work

And what do I do in MAKDEV to get xscan to work.

Looking forward toyour feedback.

	What capabilities do you need? ssh is a standard, any good client will
work. I really like putty,

Good luck,

	In all likelihood, /share is not a real mount point. You cannot export
arbitrary directories. It's also possible that your host names aren't
listed in /etc/hosts, or your -network specification is incorrect. I
suspect that you want to leave the .0 off the end of that IP. 

	I would try narrowing down your options to access from a known good nfs
client specified by IP, and expand from there. 

Good luck,

Doug

TeraTerm is a great telnet client, with an ssh add-on.

http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html

TeraTerm ssh supports most algorithms and data compression.

	cvs and more specifically for ports, cvsup is the canonical way to keep
your tree up to date. Why would you not want to use it?

	Figure out how the other languages do it, make yours work the same way,
then submit a PR with patches against the base system. 

Good luck,

So it appears some stuff works and some stuff doesn't. I ran
apsfilter (./SETUP), after installing it from the ports collection,
and it printed a real nice full-color test page. Well I thought
things were finally going to work. Wrong. I opened AbiWord and
printed a one page document and got about 5 pages of garbage. I
opened kmail and printed a 1 paragraph email and got a couple pages
of garbage. I also have ghostscript installed (from the ports
collection). When I run gs all I get is a gs> prompt, what do I do
with that? I don't see any setup or configure script for ghostscript.
Any ideas why a full-color test page will print but pretty
much nothing useful otherwise?

HI,

I'm trying to setup a Dial-in modem pool on my freeBSD box (203.13.222.1).
From a windoze machine (203.13.222.209) I can dial up and everything is fine
(route has been added) and I can surf the web if I use the proxy server
which is running  on the dial up machine. The problem is however, how do I
set the dial-ins gateway to another machine(203.13.222.3)?  From the windoze
machine I tell it to get everything automatically, which it does, except it
sets it's default gateway to be its IP address which the freeBSD box
assigned to it. I can ping the freeBSD box and any other box that has its
default gateway set to 203.13.222.1 (these boxes configuation is wrong which
I will change), however I need to tell the windoze machine when it dials-up
the gateway is 203.13.222.3. In windows I tried manually setting the
gateway, however when I had a look at winipcfg it told me its gateway was
still its self and it took a long time connecting (i.e. its own IP address).
The freeBSD box's gateway has been set to 203.13.222.3

Another thing I should note is we are using a subnet mask of 255.255.255.192
for address 203.13.222.0 to 203.13.222.64

Basically all I need to know is...

    How do I set the freeBSD box to tell the windoze box the gateway is
elsewhere?
    And is there something I can add to the options.tty_ files to do it?
    Do I need to add something to ip-up to add a special route?

here is one of my options.tty_ files, I have tried adding proxyarp and
defaultroute to it with no success.

hello freebsd'rs

need urgent help on nfs.

I have installed freebsd v3.2 on two machines and i
want to nfs mount filesystem from one machine to
another. I did the following (from my earlier exp
with BSDI v3.0)

1. I edited /etc/exports on the nfs server machine
   to include
   /home -alldirs 10.118.10.10 10.118.10.11
 
   basically i want to mount /home of one machine
   onto machines 10.118.x.x but these two machines
   are just examples

   I sent a SIGHUP to all 'nfsd' processes and also to
   inetd'

2. I attemped to mount this on 10.118.10.10 using
   % mount_nfs 20.0.0.2:/home /mnt
   where 10.0.0.2 is the ip address of the
   nfs server
   I got the error 
   mount_nfs : can't access /home : permission denied

   Is there anything wrong with my procedure or 
   do I need to do something else to get this working

Your help is greatly appreciated

Thanx a lot !!

Adios

Vasu

ok well I searched the archives and didn't find
anything in relation to this problem.  I wish to
enable background sound for my computer speakers.  I
have the 5 speaker set from cambridge but for now only
3 are active.   I have purchased an oss liscence
however I prefer an in-kernel driver 'device pcm0'. 
with oss they had a mixer setting "./ossmix
4chan.enable on".  I'm hoping someone here will know
how I can enable my background sound.  my hardware is
a creative labs sound blaster pci128.  thanks a bunch
=)

Hi,

After reading the recent security vulnerbility in imap-uw, I'm looking for
alternative imap/pop daemons. Looking through Ports I came up with a list of
progs that support imap/pop.  If anyone could recommend a particular
program/package I'd like to hear from you.  I recall a number of people
recommending the cyrus package.

Thanks,
- Will

Bonjourno!

I mount the diskette by this command:

 # mount -t msdos -o noexec /dev/fd0 /mnt

Then I access the files as usually, but a bit later or at umount'ing - BOOM!
Diskette was accidentally write-protected! The system hangs up or reboot!
Few seconds before it has happened the kernel is complains that the blocks
cannot be written. Afterward computer stop responding.Without panic and
without any chances to stop the fatal activity.

I use FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE, cvsup'ed at 08.04.2000. Two neighbor computers
with similar configuration has the same behaviour.

The diskette has no bad blocks and is only write-protected.

How I can fix this? Any suggestions? I want to install the amd automounter,
but with it anyone can hang or reboot my system!

Ciao!

You need to HUP mountd on the server.

Use 'showmount -e 20.0.0.2' to see what he think he is exporting.

FWIW, I've been using cyrus in production for months now and have had
nothing but success.  (Mind you, the initial configuration is certainly
more involved than that of "simpler" daemons).  Cyrus supports individual
user quotas, arbitrary mailbox creation, ACLs (great for shared mailboxes
and the like) and a whole slew of other things I haven't found anywhere
else.  It's stable, fast, secure, and is well supported.

[...etc...]

Look at sys/types.h  -- a lot of stuff that socket.h needs to have
defined *isn't* defined if _POSIX_SOURCE is defined.

In the error I left untrimmed above, for example, the corresponding
line from sys/socket.h is:

typdef u_char		sa_family_t;

... but u_char isn't defined if _POSIX_SOURCE is defined.  So, this
appears to be working exactly the way it should be.

What are you expecting having _POSIX_SOURCE defined to do for you?

I've seen this too. This bug has been there for months (since 3.1 if
not earlier) and I think there are at least two PR's on this. 

If it's an MSDOS floppy, you can try mtools. (ports/emulators/mtools)

As for me, you should read first handbook and faq's, because too many
questions 
on that list already answered here :)
You could found them in /usr/share/doc/ on installed system, or on 
www.freebsd.org/... (don`t remember)

Good luck!

As I know ANSI C libraries are the same, as in DOS (almost), but, for
example "conio.h" is not a ANSI, and maybe BORLAND-specific

Hello!

I've been able to find several versions of Quake World 2.30, among them
linux libc5, linux glibc and bsdi ports.

Maybe there are some source code of qw, so I can compile it on FreeBSD?

Anyway, the question is: which is better to use from those three?  Is BSDi
emulation better that linux's?


Cheers,

There is an interesting command called "cdcontrol" that can do this for
you.  Simply run it like so:

cdcontrol -f /dev/

You can then use play, pause, skip, stop, eject commands on the audio
cd's you have.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Marc

Hi,

i would like to know if the FreeBSD 3.4 or 4.x NFS implementation is
'NFS-locking-problem' free.
I have to run several FreeBSD mail servers with Cyrus (patched to work
over NFS) and a NFS backend made with NetAPP filers.

thank you,

Lorenzo

Hi,

I just completed building 4.0-RELEASE (which I obtained via cvsup). It
built fine (I used buildworld). I am upgrading from the 3.4 cds (Jan
2000).

Now, once I completed compiling I went into single-user mode and did a
make DESTDIR=/var/tmp/root-18042000 distrib-dirs distribution
(yes that directory existed).

It seemed to go pretty well until it started running MAKEDEV and I got
lots of /sbin/makedev syntax errors (/sbin/makedev was called with only
one parameter).

Now, I realise I probably should've done a make installworld first, but I
would like to know if you could tell me whether this is the reason that
it's failing or whether it'll still be this way after a make installworld.

The reason I'm not just going ahead and trying is that I'm a little
stressed on time at the moment and can't really afford using up too much
time hacking around to get failing upgrades working :/.

(I'm unfortunately not subscribed to the mailing lists at the point
because I can't handle the traffic [I tried, really! :) ] so please reply
to both the list/s and me, thanks!]

PS: I love being able to update using cvsup - I come from Linux, where
updating is usually a matter of a big ftp download or buying a cd :/

Thanks,

Hi, FreeBSD'ers !

I encountered some kind of problem.  I have a FreeBSD based router
between four 10MB/s Ethernet segments.  (3.3-RELEASE) The box has
3 PCI NE2000 NIC's and an ISA PnP NIC NE2000.

While they work OK on separately, I cannot make them work together

In kernel configuration I have:

controller pnp0 device     ed?

and the settings in /boot/kernel.conf to make PnP stuff work.

PCI card are detected first as ed0, ed1, ed2 and then ISA PnP card
is detected as ... ed0

I assume that PCI and PnP detection code assigns code starting from
0 or 1 or whatever it is in kernel config and does not check if
such unit already exists for such device.

I saw on archies that Blaz Zupan  has already
had such a problem, but he was only advised to change his NIC. (I
feel I'll eventually do the same :)

Now my question is: Can I make kernel assign unit numbers for
devices my way ?

I believe it is easy to hack PnP code to assign unit numbers for
devices it finds, starting from some number, e.g. 4, and it would
solve the problem.  I didn't succeed in digging kernel source for
it since I am neither kernel nor unix expert at all.

Please, help those who know how to do it.

el idioma de esta lista es ingles, asi que si no puedes
formular tu pregunta en ingles la probabilidad de ayuda
positiva en esta lista no es grande.

hay lista en espanhol --  majordomo@es.FreeBSD.org --
tambien busca en los archivos -- empezar no es dificil, hace
falta nada mas dos diskettes y se instala automaticamente,
pero te va a costar unas 4-6 horas en la linea.  comprar el
juego de CDs es mas facil.

suerte!

-------------translation, for those interested------------

this is an English list, so if you cannot put your
question in English, you are  unlikely to get a positive 
reply.

there is a Spanish list --majordomo@es.FreeBSD.org -- also,
look in the archives -- it isn't hard to start, requires
only two diskettes, and it installs automatically, but you're
going to need 4-6 hours on line.  buying the CD set is
easier.

good luck!

Hi everybody. Someone could help us?

We have a dual Pentium III 500MHZ with 256MB RAM and 2x18GB SCSI disks tied
with vinum. This machine runs postfix-19991231 with radius authentication
for about 40.000 mailboxes over FreeBSD 3.4.
The top command reports 90% of the time the CPU is above 95% idle (see
below).
Despite this, it takes about 10 seconds to show the first screen of a vi
command.
Another strange symptom is the report from iostat (see below). It shows a
great discrepancy among our disks, mainly in the msps measure. It also shows
a great discrepancy (very high numbers) about what should be the msps of any
SCSI disk.
This configuration is running for months and we have no report of hardware
or software failure or malfunction whatsoever.

Could the numbers from iostat be wrong?
Could the numbers from top be wrong?
What else could be wrong?
What can we do?
Thanks.

No, you should have read /usr/src/UPDATING first. That would have you
updating to 4.0-Stable first. Then, there is a definite sequence that
you have to go through, which includes using the new MAKEDEV to build
your devices. Read and see if you can recover.

Good luck,

Kent

Hi,

I'm trying to create two simple shares on  
4.0-RELEASE.  I have the homes shared as such...
[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   writeable = yes

and a shared directory...

[data]
   comment = data
   path = /data
   writable = yes
   valid users = djp
   create mask = 0765

I am trying to log in from WinNT 4.0 (machine name
Judah) as user djp and user djp does exist on FreeBSD.  
This is the error message I see in /var/log/log.judah

Hey there,

Checkout /usr/ports/www/linux-netscape6 -- you can install it from
there.  Pain free.  :)

Cheers,

Dear FreeBSDers,

----------------------- Previous question ----------------------------

Few days ago I installed (yet) another 4.0-STABLE system, thus testing
a Release CD I had made myself. I would like to download the -CURRENT
sources onto this new FreeBSD slice.

I seem to understand that these actions should be taken:

1) the first time I cvsup the sources, I will have to use the
following tags:
A) "src-all tag=3DRELENG_4 list=3Dcvs" (ie NOT list=3Dcvs:.) in the
standard-supfile;
B) "cvs-crypto" tag=3DRELENG_4 list=3Dcvs" (ie NOT list=3Dcvs:.) in the
secure-supfile.

2) in all subsequent operations, I will be able to use the normal
supfiles (standard and secure) found in /usr/share/examples/cvsup in
my new 4.0-S system.

----------------------------- Solution -------------------------------

A typo in the cvsup FAQ made me ask that question. The tag for the
first download (ie standard-supfile-first-time) is "tag=3DRELENG_4
list=3Dcvs:."; for subsequent downloads, I'll be using the
standard-supfile ("tag=3D."). An analolous approach holds for
cvs-crypto.

I *seem* to understand that, since I made my 4.0-S Release about a
week ago, the fact that I actually create the checkouts files for a
(slightly) subsequent 4.0-STABLE is immaterial. The time interval is
just one week.


-------------------------- Other methods ----------------------------

If much more time had elapsed, I should have followed other
procedures.

I should have installed the 4.0-Release sources, "upgraded" to
them (tag=3DRELENG_4_0_0_RELEASE list=3Dcvs:.) and then cvsup'ed the
actual -CURRENT sources (tag=3D. only). An analogous procedure should
have been applied to cvs-crypto.

Alternatively, I should have specified the "date" field instead of the
"tag" field. From cvsup(1):



 date=3D[cc]yy.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss
                This specifies a date that should be used to select
                the revisions that are checked out from the CVS
                repository. The client will receive the revisions that
                were in effect at the specified date and time.

                At present, the date format is inflexible.
                All 17 or 19 characters must be specified, exactly as
                shown.  For the years 2000 and beyond, specify the
                century cc. For earlier years, specify only the last
                two digits yy. Dates and times are considered to
                be GMT. The default date is `.', which means ``as late
                as possible''.




For instance, "date=3D2000.04.10.10.00.00", and **if** I fully
understand the cvsup man page, it is possible to combine both
concepts, ie "date=3D_date_to_be_specified" and "list=3Dcvs:.".

That is, "date=3D2000.04.10.10.00.00 list=3Dcvs:." in the
"standard-supfile-first-time" and then just "tag=3D." in subsequent
cvsup operations.

Is all this correct?

Thank you very much for your help and ... patience.

Best regards,
Salvo

Does it work on 3.4R?  For me (3.4 Stable) it crashes with a floating point
exception. Someone else reported the same thing on -chat, but someone
said it works on 4.0R.

I found it very nice to have some commercial demos, on the second CD.
However, when I tried to install the OSS demo, it complained saying that
it needs FreeBSD 2.2... Going to the www.opensound.com site I've read 
there was no support yet for 4.0.

Hey there,

I'm running 4.0-STABLE so unfortuanately I can't tell you.  I would
assume though that if you're running linux-base-6.1 it should work
regardless of whether you're running 3 or 4.

Cheers,
Marc

Ah, thank you, I missed that :/.

I only read the appropriate section from the FreeBSD handbook. Perhaps a
later release should include a reference to /usr/src/UPDATING (well,
perhaps it does already, this handbook is from 3.4 :).

Thank you again,

Unfortunately, it doesn't. I am running linux-base-6.1 and, as far as
I can tell, all the other necessary (and up-to-date) stuff like linux
libjpeg.

conio.h  is a Borland thing.  djgpp has it because of dj's work.  It is not
something you find in the unix world.  The most common standard for cursor
positioning and text colors and such is the curses library.  Which I've
heard about but never used.

Hi.. I've recentely installed FreeBSD in my other computer, and
I'm trying to compile the C programs I made before under DOS.
Suprisingly for me, the GCC compiler couldn't find the "conio.h"
library!
Are the libraries used in C under FreeBSD much different from
under DOS?? What are the main diferences between a C program
made to run under FreeBSD and one made to run under DOS?

thanks...

Hi All,

I recently wrote to this list with a mail under the subject "Big
Installation Problems".

Basically, so far as I understand, FreeBSD 4.0 won't install on my machine
because of driver problems with the RZ100 ATA controller.

Apparently this controller was fairly common on early Pentium machines.

And so what's the next step for anyone in possession of an RZ100?

In order to help me figure out my options, here are some questions...

1) FreeBSD commitment to old hardware

I guess its likely that development priorities are more focussed on newer
hardware problems, rather than problems associated with older kit. So am I
realistically going to see a fix for this anytime soon?

2) 3.4 Installation Floppies with 4.0 CDROM

I'm new to FreeBSD, so please forgive me if I'm asking an outstandingly
stupid question: In the absence of a 4.0 RZ100 fix, can I use installation
floppies from a previous release to kick-start the installation from my 4.0
CDROM? Or is the 4.0 CDROM going to overwrite the kernel drivers from the
floppy anyhow?

3) Back to 3.4

Is my only realistic course of action to install 3.4 (is it 3.4?) and forget
4.0 (for now)?

Advice and opinions gratefully received.

Thanks,
Mick Gallagher

Must admit, you're not the only one with problems, my 4.0 install hangs
whenever it tried to fsck or newfs the partitions on install. This is
with the VIA MVP3 chipset.

That's what I'll be doing and then sticking to 3.4-STABLE until I've found
that 4.0 actually works on my PC.

This would be because FreeBSD 4.0 masks floating point exceptions by
default but FreeBSD < 4.0 traps on floating point exceptions by default.

If you have the source you can edit /usr/src/sys/i386/include/npx.h on
your FreeBSD 3.4 system. The comments in the file will tell you what to
do.

Linux emulation should probably be fine.  I'm pretty sure BSDi would be, too.
The BSDi version might work better under -CURRENT i think because as far as i
can tell i think they are merging source bases in the -CURRENT branch for
FreeBSD and BSD/OS (if i am wrong, please correct me....i usualy don't know
what's going on).  However, since i regard games like that as a waste of my time
(except that Doom kicks ass..), i wouldn't have any working knowledg of Quake
anything under anything.

I'm having a little trouble getting FreeBSD 3.4 stable to use a 40gig
maxtor HD.

boot message shows:
Apr 18 04:50:34 wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa
Apr 18 04:50:34 mysql /kernel: wdc0: unit 0 (wd0):

cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S

Fdisk from sysinstall shows:
4982 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 80035830 sectors

Label from sysinstall shows:
Disk: wd0       Partition name: wd0s1   Free: 80035767 blocks (39079MB)

newfs works fine, however the drive fails to mount with the following:
Error mounting /dev/wd0s1e on /ide : Invalid argument

console shows the error message of 'Unknown major/minor for devtype'

I know the drive works on the hardware as I have an identical machine
running NT where I took the drive from. Bios does report the
size/geometry incorrectly. Seems the bios has a max limit of 65535 for
cylinders and 16 heads however from the little I found in the archives I
was under the impression BSD got the geometry from the drive itself and
ignored the bios?

Any help would be appreciated. Please cc me in replies as I'm no longer
on the list.

Regards,

You're in luck :)  The Quakeforge project is what you're looking for.
The version in our ports tree is a bit old, though.  Just go to
www.quakeforge.net and download one of the qf-current snapshots.

If you want to use the old binaries, both the BSD/OS and Linux
executables work about the same.

XFree86 might not support that card (i've never heard of it), and i seriously
doubt that XFree86 3.3.6 or 4.0.0 would have new support for a card with specs
like that.  might be out of luck, dude.  Maybe just use the VGA16 server and set
everything to "probed" will work in XF86Setup

Do you actually have the file "/dev/wd0s1e"?  If not, you should use 
"/dev/MAKEDEV wd0s1e" to create it.  I just had sort of similar (if that 
actually makes any sense) problems with a 34GB drive.  There was a thread a 
few days ago about having problems mounting a drive.  See if you still have 
those messages, or search through the archives for them as they make prove 
useful.  The subject of those messages was:

"I'm at a loss for a way to mount this second ..."

In response to my question with the problems I was having, I also received 
this useful reply from Chris Wasser (cwasser@v-wave.com):

*****
I had a similar problem with a 37GB maxtor drive under 3.x and solved it
by using the b0ffb0ff flags on the wd driver, after that I was able to
newfs and mount it no problem, ie:

controller      wdc0    at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0xb0ffb0ff
disk            wd0     at wdc0 drive 0
disk            wd1     at wdc0 drive 1
controller      wdc1    at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 flags 0xb0ffb0ff
disk            wd2     at wdc1 drive 0
disk            wd3     at wdc1 drive 1
*****

and then this follow-up from Greg Lehey:


*****
Right, that's the recommended workaround with the wd driver.  Bit 12
(0x1000) in each of the halves of the flags sets LBA mode.  This is
probably a good idea anyway.
*****


HTH.

Glad to hear that.  I expect to be moving my Overland to a FreeBSD
system sometime in the next few months.  It's currently attached to a
HP-UX (gag) machine.

BTW, you really, really, really do want to run in random mode unless you
have a changer that won't support it.  The reason is not so much for
backups, which normally use the tapes sequentially, but for restores.

Sorry if you have twice, this second mail is just for
certainty,

Dear FreeBSD users,

I would like to know exactly how many users that the
FreeBSD Server can manage in the system. As the answer
from
ttp://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=5108641+5110123+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19991226.freebsd-questions

the maximum number is 65535, but from man adduser the
maximum number is 32000. I do not know what 's the
correct number.

I also would like to know with the large number of
users, will the processing speed slow down ? If yes,
how to speed up the system ?

Thank you very much in advance,
All the best,
--

Nguyen Manh Tho.

I understand why the errors were happening. My question was more about
if that was the intended result.

In other words, if I write POSIX compliant code and define _POSIX_SOURCE,
I'm disallowed from using sockets ?

We are trying to use the Comtrol RocketPort(PCI)
multiport serial card for one of our projects and
have run into a problem.  When we hook up the 
system and run it we start getting CRC errors.
(I should note the CRC errors are part of our own
 protocol that we are using over the serial link)
When I simply use one of the built in serial ports
these problems disappear.  We have downloaded and
installed the latest drivers from Comtrols web
site.  Has anyone experienced anything similar, or
at least have an idea what is wrong?

  Thanks
     Chris

If you installed linux-base reasonably recently it would be 6.1 .
You can check with

Subject: natd error with vmware2 networking

Hi,

I am running 4-STABLE. Recently I am using vmware2 port usually. To do
networking in virtual machine, I setup natd and other stuffs.

 1. Install vmware2. Select host networking in networking section.
    (vmware2 port of FreeBSD doesn't support bridged networking. right?)
 2. recompile kernel with these options:

  options         IPFIREWALL              #firewall
  options         IPFIREWALL_FORWARD      #enable transparent proxy support
  options         IPDIVERT                #divert sockets

 3. in /etc/rc.conf,

  firewall_enable="YES"
  firewall_type="open"
  natd_enable="YES"
  natd_interface="rl0"
  gateway_enable="YES"

 4. IP of vmnet1 device is 192.168.2.1.
    IP of virtual machine(FreeBSD 3.4) is 192.168.2.2
    IP of rl0 is 192.168.1.2.

 5. virtual machine of vmware can do networking well.
   (default router of virtual machine is 192.168.2.2)

 6. But, this message happens repeatedly:

     natd[83]: failed to write packet back (Permission denied)

I don't want to see natd error message anymore. Does I setup my vmware
networking properly? How can I remove this message?

I've searched this mail archive but I can't find proper answer.

Hello FreeBSD ,

I have on FreeBSD machine about 33000 users and this number grow!
To add a new user takes about 1 minute.At this time the machine is
very busy :(
I use the standart pw, and pwd_mkdb

Are there any solutions to make it more easely?

I tried this idea:
the spwd.db file is in DB3 format (as is written in man pages of
pwd_mkdb).
with perl database manager I tried to make some changes there, but
without any succes.
Does somebody know how can I make it?


Best regards,
 Vladimir                          mailto:vg@dnt.md

Having problems getting a file to restore off of a remote tape.
The session logs in just fine with restore but only after this prints to
the screen 


# restore -i -f coretes.cydonia.net:/dev/nrsa0
Apr 18 09:04:50 coretes rshd[21649]: auth_pam: Permission denied
Apr 18 09:04:50 coretes rshd[21649]: auth_pam: Permission denied
Apr 18 09:04:50 coretes rshd[21649]: PAM authentication failed
Apr 18 09:04:50 coretes rshd[21649]: PAM authentication failed


I get a prompt for restore. I add the needed file and the tape go's for a
good hour before asking me if I want to set permissions for the file.
I make my selection and then end the restore session. But the file is
never restored. I'm curious if the PAM errors are prohibiting it from
actualy having permissions to write the file back to the system or
something. I'm stumped.

Hello Steve,

This will not help, the maximum what I made - 30 sec for rebuiding the
database.

What will be when number of users will grow to 50000???



Best regards,

I can not seem to find an answer in the mailing list or the archives.

Apologies if i missed it.

Hello,

In writing some UNIX-for-doofi-style documentation, I've come across
something I'm not quite sure of.

Man ps includes

            s       The process is a session leader.

So, what exactly is a "session leader"?  A process with children?

I have linux_base-5.2.

That brings a few questions.
1) I suppose I can uninstall this easily enough with
 pkg_delete linux_base-5.2
2) I am behind a firewall and have not been able to get ports to automatically download ports or packages.
What is the full path for where to get linux_base-6.1?
I checked ftp.freebsd.org but was not able to find 6.l.
A port or package will do. Preferably a package.
3) Where did you get netscape6? Did you use the linux version of netscape from mozilla.org? Or is it available from ftp.freebsd.org? If so, what is the full path to this?
4) What install steps did you take to install netscape? I downloaded the mozilla version and it was not clear how to install. This is assuming that I don't use the ports.

Thanks much. I would like to get this working.
Jim

	There is still no lockd for freebsd. It's being worked on though. More
information in the -current archives.

At ftp.freebsd.org FreeBSD-stable still points to 3.4. However, I have
read this on one of my mailing lists:

,----[ uname -a ]
| FreeBSD matador.mtwd1.on.wave.home.com 4.0-STABLE FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE #1:
| Tue Apr 18 03:39:59 EDT 2000
`----

So, is 4.0 STABLE yet or not?

Thanks!

What exact changes to npx.h were made?

From what I can tell I will need to change
#define __386BSD_NPXCW__        0x362
to
#define __386BSD_NPXCW__        0x37F

and/or

#define __INITIAL_NPXCW__       __BDE_NPXCW__
to
#define __INITIAL_NPXCW__       __BETTER_BDE_NPXCW__


Also, does this change require a rebuild of the kernel or is just for the build of netscape?

TIA
Jim

That's what I did.

The kernel. And reboot. Netscape 6 is a binary (the linux binary),
there is no source (the source is available with mozilla).

Yes. faxaddmodem recognized my usr 2.0 modem no problem.
a "faxmodem cuaa1" command gave no status message but a return
to the shell prompt.

still the process does not seem to show the modem
as per my initial description.

There is also no log being created. I imagine that would help in
decoding the problem - following the man pages I tried modifying
hfaxd.conf with "ServerTracing 0x3" 
and modifying the "syslog.conf" file with;
"local5.debug     /var/spool/fax/etc/syslog"

I noticed in the troubleshooting guide at hylafax.org
it says "

"...the most common scheduler-related problem
encountered is that no outbound jobs get scheduled for processing. faxq
will only schedule an
outbound job when it believes it has a modem available that is capable
of handling a job's needs..."

It seems to me we are somewhere here in that the scheduling is not
recognizing the modem?

I think you may also need to pkg_delete linux_lib-something.

The port consists of a big bunch of Red Hat 6.1 RPM's. If you have
access to a Red Hat 6.1 cd you can copy the required ones into
/usr/ports/distfiles/rpm/  (see what's required from the makefile).
Or download the stuff from Red Hat or a mirror.
In addition to what's installed by linux_base you'll need libjpeg-6b a
nd gtk+ -- the netscape port should install these automatically, just
put the rpm's in the distfiles/rpm directory.


> 3) Where did you get netscape6? Did you use the linux version of netscape from mozilla.org? 

It's the linux netscape 6 preview release from netscape.com . I don't
know whether the same thing is available on mozilla.org.

The easiest is to use the ports
  cd /usr/ports/www/linux-netscape6
  make install

But otherwise, just untar it somewhere, cd to the package/ directory,
and run netscape from that directory.

Have you tried running XF86Setup or xf86config? 
Try running one of them and select the chipset that SuperProbe claims you
have. (sis86c02). And remeber to set the size of the videoram explicitly
when asked for it since it appears that XFree86 can't detect it
automatically.
I would recommend to try XF86Setup first since it is (IMO) both easier to
use and the generated config-file is more readable.

It will probably work.

	FreeBSD can be downloaded from free. She _will_ however require a
network connection.

The line

NO_CDROM=       'Must be downloaded direct from Sun via www interface'

in the Makefile means that it can't be put on the FreeBSD CDs. To
install it from the Sun CDs, the following from the Makefile holds the
answer:

.if !exists(${_DISTDIR}/${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX})
IGNORE="Please manually download ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX} from http://www.sun.

No, that's ridiculous.  If you don't understand it, skip over it like the

	It was at one time... but then my gateway changed from the
provider... I changed it to 255.255.255.0 and now everything works though!
Thanks for your help! Stupid little things always get ya....:)

I'm currently using 3.4-20000311-STABLE.

To compile the latest port tarballs from www.freebsd.org/ports, should I be
cvsup'ing ports-base with the tag RELENG_3 or .?

I made a real booboo.
Whilst trying to change a user password on a FreeBSD 3.2 box (as root), I
typed:

#chpass 

A vi session opened on this user which then dropped out. Now I can't access
the /etc/pwd.db file via 'vipw' - I just get:

vipw: the password db file is busy

I can see a lockfile in there .......... '/etc/pw.C39454'

But, even if I move it, the same error arises. How do I unlock my password
file? Can I resume the session?

#vi -r pw.C39454

Gives: 'No files named pw.C39454, readable by you, to recover'
I have searched the mal archive but none of the answers in there match up
with this problem. I also can't find an answer to this on any of the 'Vi'
sites. This is really quite urgent as no user changes/additions/removals can
now take place on this mahine  :o(  !



TIA,
Chris R.

Er, what version of xmms? Reading (i.e. playing audio) CDs appears to
be broken in 1.0.1 (at least with my SCSI CD, maybe IDE works OK?). It
worked fine in 0.9.5.1, although that didn't have CDDB support.

I've just had a load of similar problems on another machine, followed by a
spontaneous reboot.  (I was in X at the time so I don't know if any messages
were printed on the console.  All I see in the log is:

I'm pretty sure now it's not hardware, although I also can't see where a
bug like this could have come from if it is in FreeBSD.  The exact same
problem has happened on two machines, within the space of a couple of
weeks, and neither machine ever had problems with 3-STABLE, and neither
of my other two machines (running 3-STABLE) have done this.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what I could do to investigate
this if it happens again?  I'll upgrade to the latest -stable first
though.

I don't speak spanish, but it sure looked like a 'where do I get

I have read a number of posts on this mailing list about getting the above
card
to work with FreeBSD. I am somewhat confused as to what works and does not
so could someone please clarify which version of FreeBSD I need to run to
get the card working. I do not mind at the moment if the modem side does not
work, but the ethernet side I need to get working.

Any idea why this error is happening?  I just installed 4.0 from scratch.
I've never
had problems with vi before.

Why do people post in Portugese, Spanish, French, German, etc. ? They
can' write English. The list is international enough that there's always
someone who can respond in the poster's native language. I personally see
no reason to draconically restrict the lists to English.

There has been a lot of discussion on that.  You can search the mailing list
archive.  You can look both in the archive at freebsd.org and you might also
search at deja.com.

I forget how to get to the archives but if you mail to majordomo@freebsd.com
with 'help' as the body of you message it will probably give you a good
lead.

I too have just purchased this card, b/c it's in
the list of supported cards in the /etc/pccard.conf
file.  After inserting it, I get 'config id 1 not
present in this card' & 'Resource allocation failure'.

Is there some quick fix I can make, or do I go back to
Frye's?  Thanks...

	Hi.

A: There are a couple of possible problems.  First of all, FreeBSD does
   not support multi-function cards, so if you have a combo
   ethernet/modem card (such as the 3C562), it won't work.

hello,

i'm trying to get freebsd 4.0 onto my sony vaio. (505TX)

in linux, to get the cdrom to be recognized, i need to pass some
parameters to the kernel at boot time:

linux ide2=0x180,0x386

how would one go about doing that at freebsd boot?

essentially, the cdrom will boot just fine, get to the install, but not
see and cdrom drives.

from what i understand of the vaio boot process, the cdrom drive gets
initialized at boot time as an ide controller, not a pcmcia card. but it's
a non standard ide controller (ide2... third ide controller?) and the
memory addresses are off too.

so, can i pass this information to the kernel during install, so i can
install from CD? i can do a net install, but that's not nearly as
interesting :)

please cc: brian@us.ncipher.com on any answers, since i don't check this
list all that often.


brian

At this time Xircom cards are NOT working on 4.0 systems. Warner says
it's about 20 lines of code to get it working, but he's a bit swamped
and has not gotten it done.

It should work under 3.4-R and 3-STABLE, but you seem to always have
to edit the pccard.conf file to give it a hard IRQ. I've found 9, 10,
and 11 all work on my system. Most people use either 9 or 10. Don't
forget to remove the IRQ you specify for the card from the list of
available IRQs at the top of the file.

Finally, if you are running on a laptop and want to stay abreast of
the latest, you might subscribe to freebsd-mobil@freebsd.org. Of you
want to stay with the latest and greatest for Xircom cards, go to the
freebsd-xircom web page at
http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/~scott/xe_drv/. There you will find
instructions for subscribing to the freebsd-xircom mailing list. (It's
very low volume.) The author of the driver tends to respond to
problems much more regularly than to when they are sent to questions.

You will also find instruction for downloading and installing the
driver. You can ignore these for 3.4-R and 3-STABLE. The driver is now
included in the system. Just edit your config file as indicted and
rebuild the kernel. You will also have to comment out the ze and zp
devices as they conflict with the xe driver. (The kernel won't build
until this is done.)

Trying to play audio CDs in xmms I get these errors in the console:

(cd0:sym0:0:6:0): READ TOC/PMA/ATIP {MMC Proposed}. CDB: 43 2 0 0 0 0 9 0 c 0 
(cd0:sym0:0:6:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:24,0

Are they coming from xmms itself or from the sym SCSI driver and what
do they mean?

Yes, many home and corporate users have successfully configured and put
cable modems to use in FreeBSD systems (including 3.x and 4.0).

Though I am not affiliated with @Home, I have personally assisted about a
dozen or so of MY business clients in FreeBSD setups using @Home's
service.  DHCP (used for dynamically assigning and requesting network
addresses and services) is part of the base distributions now, and works
rather well.

Basically, if you use a supported Ethernet network card, and your cable
ISP doesn't use proprietary connection protocols (I'm not aware of any
that do, though it was rumoured that @Home's implementation of DHCP is a
bit nonstandard--I've never had problems, though), you shouldn't have any
problem configuring your cable Internet connection with FreeBSD.

I'd rather do a cable install than a PPP install :-)

Hope this helps,
- Ryan

FWIW I would abandon olvwm now. I used to use it (now I use fvwm2) but
no-one appears to be maintaining it any longer; in fact, xview-config
and xview-lib are no longer in the ports. I, and others, have found
bugs in shelltool(1) and the olvwm menus which, it appears, are never
going to be fixed.

General information on how to do @home, but I'd assume everyone is quite
similar.

or ``set -E''. Can you tell me what needs adding to ~/.profile to make
this the default behaviour when starting sh(1)? Come to think about
it, ~/.profile is probably not the best place as I usually start sh(1)
from a csh(1) prompt (so it isn't a login shell).

I seem to have a boot problem which I will eplain in detail below. I hope
that someone can help me.

Well, I have a computer that has Windows NT 4.0 Workstation installed on
the hard disk connected to the primary IDE port as master (Disk0). The
whole partition is dedicated to WinNT. Now there is another HD in that
computer. It's connected to the secondary IDE port as master (Disk1?). On
that HD I installed FreeBSD. During the installation I said that I wanted
to use the FreeBSD boot manager to allow me to choose betwen the two
operating systems. After the installation, however, the system restarted
and WinNT took over control without the FreeBSD bootmanager ever showing
up.
I then booted from a DOS-disk and used bootinst.exe from the FreeBSD
/tools directory. When I tell it to write a boot sector to the first disk
(the disk on which WinNT is installed) it seems to work, but when I
re-boot the WinNT boot-loader takes over control againg without me ever
seeing the FreeBSD bootmanager. The only thing I can do is the
following: I can install the FreeBSD bootmanager on the 2nd HD (on which
FreeBSD is installed) and then I can to to my BIOS and tell it to start
from that drive. This works, but that way I can only boot FreeBSD, in
order to get back to WinNT (well, I don't want to use it anyways, but
there are others around here who want) I have to tell my BIOS again to
boot from the NT-Disk.
This is not very practical. I remember that once upon a time I used Linux
with LILO on that 2nd HD of the computer and I could install LILO to the
first HD. At boot time, LILO asked me whether to use Linux or NT. If I
selected Linux, it booted it from the 2nd drive. When I selected NT, the
NT bootloader popped up and started NT. Something like that should be
possible with FreeBSD! I hope that someone can help me with this problem!

Greetings,
Nils

Actually, it wasn't any question or opinion.
It was an advisement.

As far as I know, the two messages written in Japaneses were both ads....
They shuold have not done it!!!
I don't know if someone has done that before here.

Personally, I use the NT boot manager to start FreeBSD. See
http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/admin.html#AEN1776 for details of how to do
this. Note that because FreeBSD is on a different disk to NT you need
to use boot0.

No problem, but you're better posting to -questions as you stand more

Hmm, the obvious question is: have you got an audio cable between your
CD-ROM and soundcard. If so try:

       # mixer
       Mixer vol      is currently set to  77:77
       Mixer pcm      is currently set to  78:78
       Mixer speaker  is currently set to  80:80
       Mixer line     is currently set to  78:78
       Mixer mic      is currently set to   0:0
       Mixer cd       is currently set to  78:78
       Mixer rec      is currently set to   0:0
       Mixer line1    is currently set to  78:78
       Mixer video    is currently set to  78:78

and make sure that "vol" and "cd" are not 0:0 (``mixer vol 100'' to
change).

Actually, I believe that IBM's PS series was based on their MCA bus, which
is not supported by FreeBSD.  Even if I'm wrong about the PS1 being
MCA bus, there are still also going to be a few other problems.

First, if she's looking to 'upgrade'  from Windows, then she's not going
to want to run text mode.  The IBM PS/1 dates back to when VGA was
standard, if not earlier.  XFree86 does, of course, support VGA mode, but
have you ever tried to run XWindow software in VGA mode?  In a word,
don't.  Some of it will be okay, but a lot of the newer stuff definitely
wants 800x600 or better - especially the KDE stuff, and I'd bet the same
it true of GNOME as well.

Second, if she's still running Win3.1 on an old PS/1, she probably still
only has 1 MB of RAM, maybe 4 MB if she upgraded since purchasing the
computer.  That's not going to be enough.  I've tried getting RAM for an
older computer.  When a store tells you that they can get RAM for an older
computer, they mean 3 to 4 years, not something as old as a PS/1 is now.

Thirdly, it's very doubtful that she would have a CD drive, or a network
card.  If she did have a modem (not a safe bet, since someone else had to
write to the mailing list,) Win3.1 doesn't even support 56k modems.  The
best she would likely have is 36.6, and again, that's assuming she's
upgraded since the original purchase, otherwise we're talking 9600 at
best.  Download FreeBSD at 9600 baud?  Aside from being a shut-on, she'd
also better be an insomniac.

Unless she's done some serious upgrading already, she is going to need more
than just a network connection.  If she doesn't have money for upgrading
her computer, FreeBSD just won't run on it.

I need a suggestion on a scsi card/tape drive solution for my 3.4-stable
box.

I have an EXB-8500 and a Adaptec 1505.  However, I am having problems with
the EXB.  Even if I were to get that working I have about 40 Gigs of total
space.  I need to be able to do a full dump.  I was thinking of an ADIC
1200D.  It seemed to be a good price point on the net, and I don't mind
visiting the colo once a week for a tape change.

I have read on some problems with the chio or changing the tapes.

I did have some problems getting the tape online when I was at 3.2-stable,
but of course it wasn't supported. :)

Also, I planning on using amanda.  I have in use at a few client locations
and I really like the product especially considering the price/feature
tradeoff.

Any thoughts would be welcome.

First off I would use ttyd1 instead of cuaa1, as cuaa0 gave me 
problems(It did with me using FreeBSD4.0) second make sure hfaxd is not
already running. Besides this I have no idea.

Good luck

With the Code Crusader port fixed, how can I get the function menu (that is,
the tags) to show up? I read on the CC web site that the Function menu can
cause crashes, but mine doesn't even show up.

When I used CC in Linux, it showed up automatically.

*Never* use anything but . for ports.

Otherwise, you'll delete everything in the ports tree.

I saw this today pokin around one of my machines

uptime
 9:02PM  up 108 days, 19:26, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.01, 0.00

As a person who began with mini computer unices, and sco - uptimes like
that (the load averages values are low at the moment, but its a heavily
used outbound smtp, web, etc server) really freaks me out periodically
at how stable and robust freebsd is.

I wonder sometimes if the people who wrote and continue writing and
working on its continuing evolution, really know just how uniquely
wonderful a thing they've done and are doing.

There has been a 'STABLE' branch of 4.0 since the day there was a
'RELEASE' version.

'STABLE' is simply the branch of FreeBSD development that incorporates
minor fixes an improvements to the 'RELEASE' of same number. It is not
a claim that the OS is now officially "stable," whatever that might
mean.

I have this problem too. See my thread, "Problem Booting 4.0R Floppy
(ATA Driver?)." And note the date. The day after 4.0-RELEASE was
announced. :(

3.4 was and is running again just fine on this machine (but it was a
pain to reinstall it). I built my own kernels with some different ata
options, but never got it to boot. Hell, I took off all IDE devices
and compiled the kernel without ATA support and it still died.

Has anyone put in a PR on this? Now that it seems pretty definate that
it is the IDE controller, I will submit one if there isn't one
already.

Sure you can, Doug. There are subtleties about how directories must be
listed in /etc/exports, however.

The problem is that you cannot mix a '-network' options with a listing
of individual hosts. I am not sure if the '-mask' argument is optional
or not when '-network' is used; feel free to expermiment on that and
respond (I don't have energy to try myself or nose through
source). The following should be OK for what you seem to want, 

  /share      -maproot=0 -network 192.168.201.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
  /share      -maproot=0 freebie freefall

If the concern is the actual time it takes to do the computing, I
think a faster processor, more memory, a faster HDD, or some
combination is what you will need.

What type of system takes 30 seconds to a minute to do those
calculations?

Out of curiousity, why do you need to go to 3.4 just to compile
something?

That would be really tricky. Then the order in which things
build is not straightforward.

If you just want to install 3.4 for one compile, I would boot up a 3.4
floppy and install it over your 3.2 with the "Upgrade" option. That is
what you are planning for 4.0, right?

Turns out that Robert Withrow  answered my 
question the day before I asked it ;-)

I added:

DisplayManager._0.authName:   MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1

to my xdm-config and now it works.  I guess the 4.0 CD-ROM doesn't have 
XDM authorization compiled in.

Greetings,

It seems xntpd is not included with 4.0R.  It's not
included in the ports or packages either.  What's the
best way to obtain it?

After upgrading from 3.4-RELEASE to 4.0-STABLE I can't get top to work.
The output I see is:

unicorn# top
top: nlist failed
unicorn# su - sjmudd
$ top
top: nlist failed

I've checked the following permissions, but don't see anything wrong.

I'm a newbie to FreeBSD and am not really sure where to look.
Any suggestions?

Thanks and regards,

Simon

Another problem that I have found with these systems is they won't even
run Windows 95 correctly in less you have windows 3.1x that came from
IBM installed first as the software has to talk to IBM's weird bios on
these boxes. The reason I suspect this, is a friend of mine with a PS2
or was it a PS1 (can't remember which) hosed his 3.1 windows software by
trying to install Windows95 over it. And according to IBM's web site the
only way to fix his computer was to install their version of windows3.1x
on it which is NLA. Apparently the bios runs some kind of graphical
interface/shell that the OS has to talk to before it will boot. Anyway
make sure you have the original software disks before attempting a
install of Freebsd.

Regards,

Dave

The ancient xntpd(8) has been dropped in favor of ntpd(8).

  % man ntpd

Running 4.0
2 network cards, 1 is pci card Linksys (dc0 in kernel file), 1 is isa NE2000 compatable (assuming ed0 in kernel file)

Unable to get ed0 working. Kernel compiles and reboots, I see a quick message flash by saying ed0 no such device.

So I thought I need to create a device in /dev so I cd to /dev and run ./MAKEDEV ed0

error comes back saying
ed0 - no such device name

This got me thinking about dc0. ls /dev/dc0 and came back no such file. dc0 works fine, but where is its device name?

What am I doing wrong?

This machine was running 3.2 and the devices were pn0 and ed0 and worked. The hard drive failed so I bought a new drive and installed 4.0.

In the kernel.  You won't find a device node for a NIC in /dev because
/dev only contains links to block or character devices.

pn0 has indeed moved under the more generic banner of dc0 in 4.0 and
-CURRENT.  Perhaps you didn't configure your kernel correctly, or perhaps
your chipset is non-standard?  I have several Bay Networks FA310TX
(Lite-On chipsets) and these work fine with dc0.  I don't know about your
specific card, though.

Samba uses a different password file. Read the documentation from:

Are there any other error messages? Did you install samba from the ports?

Samba is usually suppost to be in a trap; therefore, it should be using
/usr/local/samba/var/lock.... etc.

How much disk space is required to put FreeBSD on my system?

(Does the handbook mention this - I couldn't find the information there).

Thanks,

It should probably be removed from rc.conf, shouldn't it?

   The Athiest's Manifesto



 We live in a world full of Gods.  Many different cultures have many
different Gods.  There are two classes of Gods.  The Gods of the past, which
usually come in groups, which were generally used to explain things that the
people did not understand.  From the roaming patterns of buffalo, to
lightning and echos, people have made up stories to explain things they did
not understand, because ignorance of a subject leads to fear of it.  Lack of
knowlege can be frightening.  Still, the people of today look back at these
anchient religions and call them "myths".  They chuckle when they think of
the ignorance required to believe that the sun is a God's Chariot.

 This brings us to the Gods of the present.  Today's religions are commonly
Monotheistic, relying on the belief of a single all powerful God.  Today's
Gods usually provide us with two messages.  One is a social code which lays
out a model of society for people to abide by.  The other is a explination
of the fundamental questions which people tend to ask.  "Where did we come
from ?"  "Why are we here ?" and "What happens when we die ?".  None of
these questions can be answered to anyone's true satisfaction.  Ignorance
creates insecurity, therefore the people need to find a way to fill in this
gap in their knowlege.  The most common religion in the world today is
Christianity and it's derivitives (Catholicism, Mormon, Islam, etc).
Christianity provides the social code, and it also fills in the gaps in our
knowlege, explaining the answers to these questions via the written and
translated stories of people who lived 2000 years ago.

 What kind of people existed 2000 years ago ?  By our standards today, they
were ignorant, violent, socially obtuse, and worse.  They treated women as
objects, and slavery for both sex and labor was common.  The people of this
era were far less advanced than the Greeks, who's beliefs we laugh at today.
And yet, some how, the words, stories, and beliefs of these people are taken
as absolute fact by millions of people all over the world today.
Christianity speaks of Jesus of Nazerith, the Christ, the son of God, who
was born of a virgin, and walked about the people of the time and performed
miracles and preached the word of God.  Because of the historical impact of
the man referred to, one can hardly deny that a man named Jesus of Nazerith
exists, however, in order to believe the rest of his tale, you must take the
word of ignorant people  of the past as fact with no proof, evidence, or
other information.  This is commonly referred to as "blind faith".

 Millions of people choose to dedicate hours, days, and years of their life
worshipping this Christian God.  They are so certain that these people of
the past, whom they probably aren't even decended from, are speaking the
truth, that they are willing to devote their entire lives to this "story".
They believe in a God, who in the past performed many many miracles, but for
some reason has decided to discontinue his supernatural behaviors.  God no
longer comes to earth and speaks with men, as he did in the past.

 Why is it people are blind to the fact that they are emulating the same
behaviors they criticize the Greeks, American Indians, and others for ?  How
can anyone honestly take this 2000 year old story as fact, with no evidence,
and devote thier entire lives to it ?  I would like to put forth my theory
on that subject.

 As we've estabished, the people of today have the same types of
insecurities that need "explaining".  The fear of death has made men invent
the world of spirituality.  The idea that when one dies, that is the end;
that one's bones go into the ground and decompose, is too frightening or
depressing to people.  So instead, they have to believe that some part of
them is immortal.  That they can always live on in some form or another.  I
call this an emotional crutch.  It's a way of dealing with one's
insecurities about our lives.  It makes us feel important, like we're
something more than a street sweeper, or garbage collector.  We're all
immortal souls with a much more glorious future ahead of us.  This emotional
crutch helps many people get through the day with a little self esteem and
hope, and I don't begrudge them their crutch.  What I do disagree with is
the ignorance, but I would not be one to demand that others give up their
emotional crutches in the name of enlightenment.  I believe that enforcing
your beliefs on another person, especially beliefs based solely on blind
faith, to be the highest crime one human can do to another, short of taking
their life.

 So if we, the atheist, are going to allow the street sweeper to believe,
and we're going to choose not to believe, then what is the problem ?  What
is the purpose of this manefesto ?  I believe that atheists are condemned by
the majority of the population.  Those of us who are secure enough in our
own existance, and who feel that the 70 plus or minus 5 years on this earth
is all we have, are treated like unholy fools.  Those who will be punished
in the afterlife.  Those who are infected with this mental epidemic tend to
react to the atheist in one of several ways.  One way is to try to convert
or convince the atheist that the 2000 year old story is true, and that the
atheist needs to change his/her ways, lest they face eternal hellfire.  The
second way is to simply exclude and disassociate from the atheist, perhaps
making comments about the "poor" soul to other believers.

 You'll notice I referred to religion as a mental epidemic.  Many believers
take this as an insult.  I label religion such, because of certain behaviors
that today's "evolved" religions have.

 (1) Questioning the religion's validity, asking for proof, expressing
skepticism, etc, are all considered to be "sins" or crimes under the
religion.  In other words, independant, logical, unbiased thought are not
allowed.  Back in the earlier times when the followers were a little more
"rabid" people were burned to death for expressing such ideas.

 (2) Religion is taught to children at a VERY young age.  Basically, from
kindergarden to adulthood, a believing parent is supposed to enroll the
child in some kind of religous program like Sunday School.  The reason for
this is to expose the child to religion at an early age, before rational
logical thought develops.  This way, the child grows up with religion, so
that any thoughts, ideas, concepts of atheism or disbelief are completely
alien to them.  An analigous example would be Hitler's Youth.  Hitler also
knew this concept well.  If you wish to spread an idea, and have it safe
from independant or radical thought, ingrain it in the children before they
can reason.  Today's religions have it down to a science, with songs,
videos, and activities designed to make the child a believer before they
truly even understand what God is.  If people waited until age 13-15 before
introducing religion to their children, so that the children could
rationally decide if this was what they wanted to believe, religion would
not be such a wide spread epidemic.

 (3) Religions instruct their people to attempt to convert (or in some
radical cases, kill) any disbelievers.  The kinder, more passive religions
will simply ask their congregation to bring new people into the church every
week.  Once a person visits the church once or twice, the church has them
added to their mailing and phone lists.  They attempt to get the person to
regularly attend.  Then they attempt to get the person to participate in a
ritual, such as baptism or confession.  These are relatively benign
activities, and usually can only trap the weak minded.  The more "active"
religions send people out to visit your home.  They want to come in and talk
to you about god and convince you that the 2000 year old story is true
(because they say it is).  They run commercials, and give your free
literature or free copies of the bible.  They'll do anything to convert you
to their way.  Why ?  Because their religion specifies it.

 (4) Religion requires that you disbelieve anything scientific that might
possibly contradict the religion.  We've all seen and heard religous people
sit and argue about how the entire sciences of Biology, Genetics, and
Physics are just plain wrong, because the 2000 year old story contradicts
it.

 (5) Religion covers every base.  No matter what kind of argument or
evidence you can bring up to attempt to contradict religion, the believer
can always simply make up a little story or "possibility" of how God, using
his supernatural powers, can simply have "made it that way".  Take for
instance the Dinosaurs.  Either they didn't exist, and the bones "are really
from contemporary animals, which are being fitted together incorrectly to
look like a creature that never existed", or "God put those bones down
there."  No one knows why.  Or how about how we are all decended from Adam
and Eve ?  Adam and Eve must not have truely been human, or mankind would
have died from inbred genetic diseases (insufficeient gene pool), after the
first couple hundred generations.  And how did those people in the bible
live for hundreds of years ?  Were the laws of physics and the nature of
human biology that different back then ?  Religion fields these questions
with ease.  "God made it that way".  "It's all part of God's plan".


 Beyond the grievences I have as an atheist living in a belief based
society, I also have grievences as a human being.  I have a personal care
and interest in the well-being of my species.  I would like to see mankind
reach out into space, establish colonies on other planets and systems.
Become something more than the proverbial 2 day mold on a piece of bread
(before it is thrown out), before conditions in our solar system change and
erase us from existance.  Truthfully, everyone should care about mankind's
development.  The problem is this.  The religions are "anti-science" in many
respects.  There are many things, like cloning, which we should not do
because that is God's territory.  "Playing God" is not allowed.  Add that to
the fact that many of man's best minds, people who could be possible
Einsteins of certain fields, are robbed of their potential because they are
infected with this mental disease.  If John Doe grows up believing that
evolution, biology and genetics are in conflict with his religion, he
certainly wouldn't excersize the possibility that maybe he would have become
one of the best Geneticists in the history of the science.  Not only that,
but those who don't believe, and wish to advance mankind's knowlege are
restrained by the believers.  They are forced to move at a slow enough pace
so that the religions can readjust, reevaluate, and reinterpret the words of
their religion so that they don't reach a point in which they cannot explain
how their religion can be true with science showing the oppisite.  Then
there are such fanatics who spend every waking hour worshiping God, to the
point which they're throwing away the most valuable thing they own.  Life.
Real life, here on earth.  One only has so much time.  If one spends all of
that time trying to get ahead on the "next" life, they are throwing this
life away, and not contributing to the society and species as a whole.
Religion is a serious drain on mankind's most important resources, manpower
and time.  And no matter how much science proves that the world is 4 billion
years old and not 15,000 years old, and that the universe was formed through
the mixing and spreading of elements, and not by the wave of a magic wand,
and no matter how many times scientists try to show that life on earth was
formed by the interactions of nucleic acids (and it still is every day),
it's absolutely impossible to convince a believer that the simplest answer
is the correct answer.  The world is as it seems.  There is no second world,
second life, greater power, or magic that makes it all possible.  And it's
sad, because we need every one of those believers with us, here on earth,
helping out, not praying in some church or temple in front of some clown in
a suit or fancy religious outfit.

 I am an atheist.  I live in a world full of people, blind to their own
ignorance, dedicated to a 2000 year old story written by people who's
intellect doesn't even compare to an 8th grader.  I have to live with these
people, respect thier beliefs, and endure their constant attempts to convert
me into one of their ilk.  I have to watch as millions of man-years go down
the drain, wasted away in foolishness.  I watch as other atheists have to
hide their beliefs, to avoid being condemned by the believers and ostrasized
from society.  But as I'm watching, I'm waiting.  I see with every
generation, more and more people are simply "going through the motions".
They take part in the process, but they don't really believe in it.  They
simply do what is expected of them.  Soon, they reach a certain age or time
in their life in which they no longer attend the church, but they "still
believe".  They don't pray anymore but they "still believe".  They go about
living their real lives, pretending to themselves and others that they
believe.  These are a kind of "Casual Christians".  This behavior shows the
deterioration of the true believers as a whole.  A pattern author Frank
Herbert referred to as "rot at the core".  As parents become more and more
lax about their own religious patterns, they begin to spare their children
the foolishness of church and Sunday School.  Slowly the religious base of
mankind is deteriorating.  People are giving less and less credability to
the 2000 year old story, as they grow up in a world of computers, cloning,
genetic therapy, and microbiology.  It's only a matter of time until,
hopefully, enough of us break free of this mental disease and begin to live
life for the here and now and not to please some imaginary God in order to
gain entrance to some fantasy land.  I am not alone.  Talking privately with
many others of my generation, I know I'm not the only one who thinks
religious people are foolish.  While most will tell an adult they believe in
God, it's simply because they don't want to experience the social punishment
of being a disbeliever.  So we watch and wait.  Wait for the world to wake
up from this 2000 year old dream.  Some day people will look back on
Christianity the same way people look back at Zeus and Apollo.  They'll ask
how a people who've mastered genetics, computers, atomic physics, etc, can
possibly believe in such childish nonsense.  The answer is, most of us
don't, we're just afraid to admit it, because we've seen what kind of
violence the rabid religious can bring forth when their beliefs are
threatened.  So rather than rising against religion and preaching against
it, we watch and wait for it to die of apathy.  If we're wrong, we'll be
condemned to hell for all eternity.  If the religious are wrong, then
they'll have thrown away the single most valuable thing they possess.  Their
life.  I am an atheist.  This is my manifesto.  It is the first step in
curing the disease.

The only domain you should need in /etc/mail/relay-domains is 'mpx.com.au'.
With this you should be able to e-mail anyone in the world from your

Aside from being a little off topic, I hope you're right.

Kind of like going up in my airplane, shutting the engine off, and then
arguing about whether gravity is real or not....not matter who wins the
arguement, the plane is still going to crash.

I'm pretty sure its in the handbook....but to give you the easy answer, it
depends.  I have an old 486 with a minimal install of 2.1.5 on a 80 meg hard
drive with room to spare.  No X windows though.

I've got 3.4 on a newer machine and I installed everything off the CD onto a
2 gig drive and I have some room to spare.  (Of course spending too much
time drooling on the ports took care of that)

If I remember correctly you can get X windows and the kernel sources and
plenty of treats into 400 megs.

I just fired through the handbook and didn't see the answer to your
question.  I know it's in the installing and running FreeBSD book I have by
Greg Lehey, but its too late to find that.

Hope that helps you out.

Josh

I'm upgrading 3.4-S to 4.0-S. I've cvsup'ed the sources with:
src-all tag=RELENG_4
cvs-crypto tag=RELENG_4

made buildworld, buildkernel, and installkernel for GENERIC. I also
created /dev/ad[02]s1[a-h].

However, one thing keeps me in doubt. I assume that since the entries
in /dev changed, so should the device names in the kernel config
file. Grepping in GENERIC and LINT for ad0 produced no results. LINT
contains an entry for wd0, while GENERIC doesn't. Is this alright? Did
these files get updated with cvsup at all? ;^)

How would I specify the IDE controllers and drives in the config file
for the new kernel?

,----[ My current kernel config file ]
| controller      wdc0    at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0x90ff90ff
| disk            wd0     at wdc0 drive 0

I just tracked this one down and since I havn't seen this mentioned
thought I'd mention it to save someone else the same trouble.

I installed linux-netscape (for the linux plugins), don't run
portmapper on this machine and do use log-in-vain.

Every time it tried to resolve anything I saw 6 or 7 hits on
localhost, rpc and it had to wait for something to time out before
getting the dns resolution and then working correctly ...

It turned out that
  /usr/compat/linux/etc/nsswitch.conf
had lots of entries for nis in it. I removed the nis entries and all
went back to as I'd expect.

Should these entries be there by default ?

You should have these drives detected as "ad0" and "ad1". If you
would prefer "ad0" and "ad2", add this line along with the other
three:
options		ATA_STATIC_ID

I'm using a serial console on my FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE box, which is in turn
connected to my Windows PC and SecureCRT running at 132 cols x 50 lines.

The line for ttyd0 in /etc/ttys for set to:

ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" pcvt50w on  secure

All is working fine, except when I drop to single-user mode. At that point
the terminal type ($TERM) gets switched to cons25 (which seriously messes
with 'more' and 'mergemaster').

Is there any way I can keep single-user mode from redefining the terminal
type (i.e., where is the setting)?

TIA,

--Dan

That is because patch-ac strips it out.

/usr/src/usr.sbin/pwd_mkdb/pw_scan.c, line 87 (3.1-R):

        if (id > USHRT_MAX) {
                warnx("%s > max uid value (%d)", p, USHRT_MAX);
                /*return (0);*/ /* THIS SHOULD NOT BE FATAL! */
        }
        pw->pw_uid =3D id;

/usr/src/usr.sbin/adduser/adduser.perl, line 58:

      $uid_start =3D 1000;          # new users get this uid
      $uid_end   =3D 32000;         # max. uid

adduser seems to be coded very conservatively; the password database
allows USHRT_MAX (65536) users safely.

Probably there will be some slowdown when accessing user information, but
the binary password file build by pwd_mkdb and used by the library
functions should help to keep time in limits.

I have this problem too. See my thread, "Problem Booting 4.0R Floppy
(ATA Driver?)." And note the date. The day after 4.0-RELEASE was
announced. :(

3.4 was and is running again just fine on this machine (but it was a
pain to reinstall it). I built my own kernels with some different ata
options, but never got it to boot. Hell, I took off all IDE devices
and compiled the kernel without ATA support and it still died.

Has anyone put in a PR on this? Now that it seems pretty definate that
it is the IDE controller, I will submit one if there isn't one
already.

Hello!

Forgive me for troubling You.

Short description:
Perl script "works" with cookies
that are CHANGED while running.
When Client is running it in Windows
the one works very well.
But there are problems with running
in Your environment.

I have been studying some BSD sites
for a long time but have not found
necessary info about Users Profiles
and Cookies.

My question is:
Is it possible to use SUCH cookies by Perl in BSD/OS
(for both Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator)?

If Yes, what settings (managings, descriptions) must
be made and where, what directories and where must be
created and so on (and/or where I can read about it).

If No, where it has been written.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello,

I'm trying to use sendmail with my dialup connection. I looked at the
FAQ (http://www.fr.freebsd.org/FAQ/admin.html#ISPMAIL)
and generated my sendmail.cf file.
Sending mail works, but each time I launch sendmail (at boot time,
manually (like sendmail -bt) or with mailq), the modem opens the
connection to my ISP (even if the mail queue is empty). This problem
seems to occur only on FreeBSD (I asked my question in a french
mail-related newsgroup and Linux users told me that they have no such
problem).
I used tcpdump and found that 2 DNS queries are sent (and
therefore lauch the modem since resolv.conf lists my ISP's DNS).
Normally, sendmail uses a ServiceSwitch file to use /etc/hosts instead
of bind, but is it used on FreeBSD ?

It is not normal that the modem connects if there is no mail to send.

Any help is welcome.

Thanks.

Loic/Toulouse, France

PS : I'm on FreeBSD 3.1 with sendmail 8.9.2

	Yesterday a drive which I'd been meaning to replace died in
	a generally unhappy manner -- after much research and general
	(mostly unrelated) replacement of hardware, I (with help from
	some friends) tracked it down to disklabel problems and did
	a bunch of work trying to fix that.

	The way things stand now, `disklabel -r ad3` comes up with
	the correct information about eight times out of ten; other
	times, it'll say "bad pack magic number (label is damaged,
	or pack is unlabeled)".

	I managed to dd the entire contents of the disk to another,
	more functional slice elsewhere.  So, the data is still all
	there in one form or another.  If I could find out the exact
	start (after boot foo) of the partitions, I could dd each of
	them seperately and work from there, but I'm not sure if it'd
	really buy me all that much.

	Another possible datapoint: attempting to mount or fsck any
	of the partitions will, more often than not, result in a
	"Device not configured" message.

	My main goal at this point, after more than sixteen hours
	of working on it and nearly 25 hours of downtime -- is to
	regain the data.  If anyone could offer advice, I sure would
	appreciate it.  I have a feeling that I'm missing something
	simple -- I used to be a sysadmin, but I never had this kind
	of problem with a BSD system before.  *sigh*

	(Note: the machine in question is my own, not my employer's.)

| What was the answer though? - I'm trying to do it myself :-))))

Create a file called 'site.config.m4' in
/PATH/TO/SENDMAIL/SOURCE/devtools/Site
and add the following two lines to the file

APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DTCPWRAPPERS')
APPENDDEF(`conf_sendmail_LIBS', `-lwrap')

remove the obj.* dir and in the sendmail dir do a ./makesendmail

science is also a god.  except it calls it's beliefs axioms & i know plenty of people 
that spend all their life worshiping that god.  why?  so they achieve their own brand 
of immorality, to make them more than a 'street sweeper'.

things don't change that much i'm afraid.  we'll bury ourselves with genetics as easily 
as we did with christianity.

If your strong enough to stand up, why are you anonymous?  I'm not.

Fergus.

Atheist, yes, but it does not mean I consider mankind god.

Dear Sir/Madam - F magazine is about to launch with it's first issue.
 
We are selecting companies with a high rate of employees between the age 18-30yrs to sample a full version of F magazine CD Rom. 

The smallest box contains 50 Cd's and although it is totally free we must have your commitment that the box of CD's will be positioned in a strategic position in the company where each employee is able to pick up their copy.

If you would like to propose your company for this launch offer, please call F magazine's offices at 020 7379 4466 or email: chrissie@fmagazine.com 

The distribution is free although we would like each person who receives the CD to become a member of Club-F.
Membership to Club-F is free - for life, and among other services, grants the free mailing of future issues of F magazine at the members address. The Club will be active for subscription after the 5th May at www.fmagazine.com 

F magazine CD-Rom, the UK based digital source of style, knowledge and life opportunities for the 'digital generation'.
A beautiful magazine with electronic pages, numbered and able to ▒turn▓ in the format equivalent to a paper publication. Each page however, is a programmable module that combines the fast interactive multimedia capacity of the CD-Rom with the power of the Internet.

Note from the Managing Director- 
We have spent over 16 months researching and building the F magazine concept.  I am proud to be able to offer this first issue of 120,000 copies to our UK market.  
Fmagazine will be launching its first issue in the US in July - if you are part of US Group and would like to propose the US offices, please let us know.

Chrissie Adams

After I upgraded from 3.4-S to 4.0-S, I can no longer
connect to IMAP service, running on this box.

Network works fine otherwise, and imap4 service is listed
as before in /etc/inetd.conf. I'm using imap-uw port.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
p.s. If it's not too much trouble, could you CC your replies to my email?

I just upgraded from 3.4-S to 4.0-S. I can't compile kernel the normal
way. After doing "make depend", "make" I get:

soup:/usr/src/sys/compile/SOUP# make
cc -c -O -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes  -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wcast-qual  -fformat-extensions -ansi  -nostdinc -I- -I. -I../.. -I../../../include  -D_KERNEL -include opt_global.h -elf  -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2  ../../dev/mii/mii.c
../../dev/mii/mii.c:80: `bus_driver_added_desc' undeclared here (not in a function)
../../dev/mii/mii.c:80: initializer element is not constant
../../dev/mii/mii.c:80: (near initialization for `miibus_methods[5].desc')
*** Error code 1

The strange part is that I *can* compile kernel with the *same* config
file by going into /usr/src, and doing "make buildkernel KERNEL=SOUP".
This way the kernel compiles and installs just fine.

Any idea what's missing?

Thanks!
p.s. Could you please CC me a reply since my mail setup is a bit screwed
due to IMAP misconfiguration after the upgrade. ;^(

Hey there,

I know this probably isn't the answer you're looking for, but you might
want to take a look at using Postfix.  (/usr/ports/mail/postfix).  I
found it to be a lot more effective than sendmail especially over a
dialup and it doesn't do annoying things like dialup if you check the
mailq.

:)

Cheers,
Marc

I recently installed FreeBSD 4.0 on my system at home which is also running win95.  I think I went through the whole installation process correctly using the Complete FreeBSD book and also the online handbook.  My problem is when I get the option of booting FreeBSD or DOS and I pick BSD this is what I get:

    >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
    Default: 0:wd(0,a)/kernel
    boot:
But then I get a next message saying:  no kernel and it gives me the same screen again.  Where did I go wrong?  What did I leave out?  Help me!!!

Hey there,

I also had this problem on a machine running 3.1-RELEASE.  After a make
world, (it's now running 3.4-STABLE) this problem seems to have been
corrected.

I am building a firewall/multicast router with FreeBSD 4.0 and
would like to add a static IP-multicast route between two NIC's
on this machine. I do not know if mrouted will be able to do this
so please tell me how to set up static multicast routing/forwarding.


Regards

Here's my global settings...

My point is that the defined user exists on samba host.

There are no other messages.  The windows client sees first...
	Incorrect user name or unknown password

So I enter the valid username/password, then...

	\\hostname is not accessible
	The account is not authorized to login from this station

Yes, FreeBSD supports several Mylex controllers.  Please see the
Release Notes for 4.0 to see which controllers are supported.

try this command at the boot: prompt, (it will list of the file(s) if any in your root partition).

boot: wd(0,a)?

see if you see a 'kernel', or 'kernel.GENERIC', It sounds to me as if you selected 'skip kernel configuration' before you installed. You should be able to boot kernel.GENERIC, and make yourself a new kernel. Try this command if kernel.GENERIC shows up:

boot: wd(0,a)kernel.GENERIC

Hello guys!

For the beginning sorry for my bad english.

That is not a real question, but an advise requirement :)

Currently I use 4.0-RELEASE, but I do want to track 4.0-STABLE
and I do need anybody explain me in detalis the process (don't
flame me, I had read handbook, but still have a few questions).

I currently don't have online, and even email at my home :(,
the only thing I had is email in University, thus I desided to
use CTM.

As I understand, the first thing I should do is to subscribe to
freebsd-stable and ctm-announce lists (is it really essential?).

I should  suscribe to ctm-???? list (what should I put instead
???? here?) to get deltas by email.

After that I should install the whole source-tree from 4.0-RELEASE,
download from ftp.frebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CTM/ (or their mirror)
all previous deltas (what is their names?).

After that I save all deltas attached to the mail to floppy, put
them into /usr/delta/* , cd to /usr/src and do
ctm -v -v /usr/delta/src-*
to modify sources, am I rigth?

After that I may do "make world" monthly.

If I am wrong, correct me please.

And one more question:
can I do
tar cfz /dos/backup/src.tgz /usr/src
and delete all my deltas, or I should keep all deltas?

Thanks!

PS.

If this is a sterling example of an atheist (people who are too lazy to
check their spelling when engaging in an informed(?) discussion) I would
run to religion by default. Thankfully I am already there---one of those
uneducated, provincial Christians, as the author would have it, with a
masters degree in chemical engineering.

Could someone please open a "gratuitous-dogma@freebsd.org" for posts
like this. I doubt that anybody joined this list to be beleaguered by
such spurious, half-baked blather. FreeBSD, I believe, is the topic
here.

However, I would, for our budding athiest's sake, like to close with a
quote from Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species:" 

	There is grandeur in this view of life with its several
	powers having been originally breathed by the Creator into
	a few forms or into one; and that, while this planet has
	gone cycling on, according to the fixed law of gravity, from
	so simple a beginning endless forms, most beautiful and most
	wonderful, have been and are being evolved.

Hi Everyone;
I was looking thru the hardware compatibility list as well as Greg Leheys
book, and I noticed that 
the 3com 3C950B Ethernet card was mentioned as compatible, but there is no
mention of the 3C950C Fast-Ethernet card.
Is this card also compatible with BSD??
Thanks
Uriel

PS! IF it isnt a problem, could you please CC thius address as well as the
ist, as I am no longer on the list as my inbox was just inundated with mail.
Thanks
:-)

Hello,
Does anyone know of any FreeBSD friendly ISPs in Hong Kong that they would
recommend ? How about sysadmins there ? A FreeBSD users group ? I am
looking potentially for co-location facilities there.

Thanks,

#1 : The FreeBSD mailing list is very much the wrong place for this.

#2 : Contact the author and let him know that if he wishes any educated
people to pay attention to him and this "Manifesto", he needs to spell and
write correctly.

#3 : He has some very interesting points.

#4 : The most common religion in the world today is *NOT* Christianity.

#5 : Quit spamming, you monkey.

Folks,

I have an apparently simple requirement, and there
seems to be a number of answers from searches.

I have a FBSD box on PPP/modem to outside, and a WinNet
box inside and I want to run internet games (eg FS2000)
without plugging the modem into the WinTel box.

I just need to get some ideas of what would be the best
solution to redirecting packets from a specific port
to an internal aliased machine. I've got loads of bits that
seem to come close, but I can't quite figure which will
do it best - particularly, is it already in PPP and I've
missed something?

Many Thanks
Ian Hunter

You probably have PPP configured for Dial on Demand or somthing and it
always wants to feel usful.  I have sendmail setup to use my ISP as a
smart host, but i don't have that problem.  Mostly because i don't feel
the need to make my modem dial for me everytime i want to send a mail (i
don' send mail very often.  it's usualy just a reply to somthing else).

Can we PLEASE either put an end to this or else move it to someplace
where it is not off-topic, maybe talk.religion.misc ?

The person who posted it here is probably not even subscribed to this
list, just a drive-by spammer.

Strangely enough most of the responses so far have pointed out that it
is off-topic here, and then continued on to discuss the issue anyway.

It's off-topic here.  So either stop or take it somewhere else.

Hello!

There is lockd and rstatd in FreeBSD 4.0, it work properly
only for MFS server not for client. I use it on our FreeBSD
NFS server about 2 month without problem.
You may start it by hand or put some lines in /etc/rc.conf
for auto starting on boot:

nfs_server_enable="YES"         # This host is an NFS server (or NO).
nfs_server_flags="-u -t -n 15"  # Flags to nfsd (if enabled).

rpc_lockd_enable="YES"          # Run NFS rpc.lockd (*broken!*) if nfs_server.
rpc_statd_enable="YES"          # Run NFS rpc.statd if nfs_server (or NO).

Grigory.

use ppp -nat for 'sharing' the internet connection, and just use natd
for redirecting a port from the outside to a port/ip on the inside.

Can anyone, PLEASE tell me of a pcmcia modem that is 
absolutely sure to work with 4.0?  I'm really at a
loss here.  I've tried so many.  If someone could give
a
particular brand and model number *asap* I'd really
appreciate it.  I'm hitting against a deadline here. 
Thanks...

On one computer over here there's a Lexmark 3200 printer attached. This
printer only works properly when its driver can run under Windows, there's no
way to get it to print under a DOS-only or FreeBSD system. There is, however,
something one can do: When Windows is running, a DOS-Program in a DOS-Box *can*
print if it is using a PCL-printer (one of the many HP-deskjet drivers). If
such a driver is used in a DOS-Box, the Windows printer driver will handle the
PCL-to-Printer-specific-format-translation. The only problem is that Windows
does always have to be running. In pure-DOS mode, one can print to a file and
then, once Windows is running again, copy that file to the printer port (I
think using copy file.ext lpt1). Again, the Windows driver will do the rest.
Having that in mind, I wonder if (andf how) I can achieve that FreeBSD prints
to a file, using a PCL/Deskjet printer. If that *would* work, all I had to do
was starting Windows later and copy that file to the printer. Any ideas are
welcome.

Greetings,
Nils

What types of failures have you seen, and what types of modems
have you tried?

I've used a Zoom V.90 (Model 2975L) and it works, but generates 
LOTS and LOTS of "interrupt-level buffer overflow" messages, even
when running at "low" speeds, and does experience data loss 
("ls -lR /" is a good test).

to dial, it would freeze my system.  I downgraded to
3.4 and PAO, it wouldn't freeze my system, but I
wouldn't dial either...

Sounds like you have other problems (like IRQ conflicts, memory overlap,
etc etc etc).  Have you gotten *ANY* pcmcia cards working?  

Since IRQ9 is available on my system, I get the following when I insert 
the card:

pccard: card inserted, slot 0
sio2 at port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 9 slot 0 on pccard0
sio2: type 16550A

Then, with this entry in /etc/remote:

modem:dv=/dev/cuaa2:br#115200:pa=none:

I can:

laptop 53} tip modem
connected
AT
OK
ATDT5551212
NO DIALTONE
~
[EOT]
laptop 54} 

(since the phone line was not connected, There is no problem with the
NO DIALTONE message, it is correct.. 8)

Help me please!

I am running FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE
(FreeBSD squid.rosbnk.ru 3.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE #0:
Mon Jul 12 18:34:19 MSD 1999    
root@squid.rosbnk.ru:/usr/src/sys/compile/SQUIDF  i386)
and all was well for a long time, I successfully rebuild
kernel several times, but suddenly something goes wrong and
step `make` (after `config` and `make depend`) ends with
errors:

  loading kernel  
  vfs_bio.o: In function `vfs_buf_set_valid':
  vfs_bio.o(.text+0x2569): undefined reference to `__cmpdi2'
  msdosfs_vnops.o: In function `msdosfs_readdir':

  *** Error code 1

  Stop.

This happens for GENERIC configuration too.

I search through the web and find messages in FreeBSD Mail
Archives with the same problem. Recommendations was to `make
clean` in kernel compile directory and to remove
/usr/src/sys and reinstall it. I followed these
recommendations,
and in addition remove and install again gcc-2.8.1 package,
but nothing help.
Errors remain the same.

Are there another workarounds or I have to reinstall
FreeBSD?

Thanks in advance.

You might want to remove this file, let it log

We need big logs, so remove this line too.

You can put this back in there after the problem is fixed,
but for now remove it.

Make sure that you created a samba password file.
read smbpasswd(8)

Mailed and posted 
I've just upgraded from 3.4-S to 4.0-S, and cannot connect to IMAP
server on this box anymore. ;^( I think this is authentication
related, as I am seeing this kind of messages in /var/log/maillog:

,----[ /var/log/maillog ]
| Apr 19 12:05:40 soup imapd[278]: [dlerror: /usr/lib/libutil.so.3: \

`----

My mail reader shows the following in its logs:
,----[ *imap-log* ]
| * OK soup.thpoon.com IMAP4rev1 v12.264 server ready
| 5 LOGIN "antipode" "********"
| 5 NO LOGIN failed
`---- 

IMAP used to work just fine before the upgrade. Also, all other
services (telnet, ssh, ftp etc.) authenticate properly under 4.0. It's
just the IMAP. 8-/

This is what I have in /etc/pam.conf:
,----[ /etc/pam.conf ]
| # [...]
| 
| # Mail services
| imap   auth    required        pam_unix.so   try_first_pass
| pop3   auth    required        pam_unix.so   try_first_pass
| 
| # [...]
| 
| # If we don't match anything else, default to using getpwnam().
| other   auth    required        pam_unix.so  try_first_pass
| other   account required        pam_unix.so  try_first_pass
`----
Commenting `imap' out didn't help either.

Thanks for any input!

p.s. I'm sorry for crossposting this, but I'm quite desperate now, not
being able to read my mail. I have procmail splitting messages into
multiple mailboxes, and I have to telnet and do "mutt -f mailbox" on
each of them. 8-/

  Hi all.  This problem has been bugging me for a while now, and I haven't
been able to make much headway on it.

I have a Compaq Deskpro running:
FreeBSD medic.east.ora.com 4.0-STABLE FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE #10: Thu Apr 13
13:23:08 EDT 2000     root@medic.ora.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/DRIVER  i386

  I'm using a 3com 3905 Fast Etherlink, with autoselect 10/100mbps, device
name xl0:

xl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
        inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast x.x.x.x
        inet6 xx::250:4ff:xxx:c7a1%xl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 
        ether 00:50:xx:xx:xx:xx 
        media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active
        supported media: autoselect 100baseTX  100baseTX
10baseT/UTP  10baseT/UTP 100baseTX 


  Currently, I'm connected to a 10mbps hub, and my network connection
works fine.  However if I plug directly into a 100BaseTX port on our
switch, my connection slows to the point of being almost unusable--I can
hardly even use Pine.  It seems to be okay when there's very little data
packets going back and forth (such as the command prompt), but when hit
with anything sizable (like my inbox in Pine), it stalls and sits there
for a while.  FTPing stalls after the first 2k block or so.

  I also noticed messages in dmesg detailing a tx underrun when I made the
switch:

xl0: transmission error: 90
xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes
xl0: watchdog timeout


  I'd obviously prefer to run at 100mbps and get off the hub, but have hit
a brick wall with this problem.  Has anyone else seen this, or know of a
solution?

  Thanks!
 -Mike

How is the switch port configured?  You need to set the switch port and
the NIC so they agree.  Either both ends set to autoselect or both ends
locked to 100/full or 100/half.  The particularly bad case is when one
end is set to auto/auto and the other end is set to 100/full.  If you
do this the auto/auto end will select 100/half.

I found that when I first installed FreeBSD 4.0 on my computer I call
jade, that the xl0 NIC was defaulting to a inoperable state. I added
"media 100baseTX and mediaopt full-duplex" to my ifconfig_xl0 options
and the problems went away. A "man xl" had the full-duplex being a
media option, which doesn't work. No matter what I tried, the transfer
rate is about 1/2 of what I get between a pair of Intel Pro/100+ MA's.

up....

Thanks alot; I'm really glad we have very similar

I moved my gateway's NIC from the Uplink to a standard link on the hub,
and my lan connectivity is still working well, but I am still getting the
msgs.

this is the output of ifconfig:

rl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500

gif0: flags=8010 mtu 1280
        inet6 fe80::2e0:29ff:fe54:a201%gif0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7

and the output of arp -a is:

sakr.net (10.0.0.1) at 0:40:5:71:49:8c permanent [ethernet]
? (10.0.0.2) at 0:80:c6:f9:a5:55 [ethernet]

bb1-fe1-1.ym1.on.home.net (24.114.36.1) at 0:60:5c:76:5b:21 [ethernet]

The associated hardware seems to be my network card on the windows box
(10.0.0.2), although these messages were not occuring when I was connected
to the HUB alone on the network. Every since I added the other machine the
sys logs have been displaying the same errors.

Hi,

I'd like to use LDAP database for dialin users authentication.
The dialin server is FreeBSD 4.0, the database is OpenLDAP.
Could anyone pont me to any docs related to LDAP authentication on FreeBSD?

Andrzej

when you boot with it to intall FreeBSD, use the visual kernel config
editor and set stuff up.

Ok, 

Thanks all who helped me get this far.  My Megahertz
modem is recognized now on sio4 w/o freezing the
system.  I had to set serial ports to auto in bios.

Now I can't make it dial.  What cuaa does sio4
translate to?  Thanks...

   I was under impression that lib*_p.a libraries are "profiled"
libraries that should not be built if NOPROFILE=true is
specified in /etc/make.conf. I have uncommented this line but
after make world I still have lots of _p.a libraries in
/usr/lib. What have I got wrong?
   And while I'm at it, what about .a and .so libs. Again, I
seem to remember that .a are aout and .so elf libs. Does any
of FreeBSD programs still use aout libs?

I already try that, but i did not see a way to add support for:

# Compaq Intelligent Disk Array Controller
#
controller      ida0    at isa? bio irq ? vector idaintr
disk            id0     at ida0 drive 0
disk            id1     at ida0 drive 1
disk            id2     at ida0 drive 2
disk            id3     at ida0 drive 3

Problem I'm having is trying to install FreeBSD to the Raid Drive .. But it
is not supported on the generic kernel and or the kernel.flp .. So i was
trying to think of a way to add support for the Raid Drive so that i can
install FreeBSD on the RAID..

Any ideas?

.so are shared libraries.
.a are static libraries.
Both are elf.
As for why you have _p.a libs, did you install profile libs during initial
installation?  Rebuilding world wont delete stuff already there.

REMARK

Those who believe that science is a god are ignorant.

They do NOT know *what* Science is, *what* the scientific method is,
and how this method  works; more generally, they completely ignore the
sense and meaning of scientific knowledge; they ignore the scope and
limitations of scientific theories; finally, they ignore the nature
and limits of scientific models. Let alone the history of
philosophical thought, which eventually originated science itself ...

Also, those who substitute "Science" for "God" (or gods) and claim to
be atheists miss the subtle contradiction in terms: they adhere to the
Religion of Science ...

As to "axiomatization" , those who worship it seem to ignore eg
Goedel's theorems as well as the subtle semantical and syntactic
problems connected with "languages", "metatheories" etc. ...

The keyword is ignorance, as usual.

Dear "anonymous",

you do NOT seem to have really understood Greek mythology. In
particular, you seem to ignore, among other things, the modern
interpretations of the **deep** meaning of myths.

Hmmm, here you seem to ignore what you are criticizing:

1) Jesus NEVER says that men are superior to women, or that women have
inferior dignity, either; please note: he lived in a *barbarian*
society, a society with *barbarian* prejudices against women;
2) Jesus NEVER says that men are unequal (masters, slaves etc.).

Also, you seem to ignore the (historical) difficulties that his
thought created for the Christian Church as far as slavery is
concerned.

Quite right.
What those **barbarian** people did in the name of "God" or "Jesus"
has NOTHING to do with Jesus and his words. Did he ever say e.g.
"please kill or burn all people who will not believe" and funny things
like that ?

Have you ever read what you are currently criticizing ?

BTW, the Arabian civilization in the VIII-XII centuries has NOTHING to
do with the **barbarians** living in Algeria and other such countries
today, either.

Hmm, maybe in the XVII century or so. You seem to ignore that the
scientific perspective is completely **independent** of the religious
one. Simply put, science and religion deal with totally different
(unrelated) things. You are free to believe in what you like (or
nothing), and develop your scientific intepretation of the world.

Those who ask you to "disbelieve anything scientific etc." are
**malicious** and **ignorant** persons. Alas, the world is full of
people trying to use anything (including religion) to make others
slave. This, too, has NOTHING to do with **religion(s) per se**

Nope. Religions per se are NOT anti-science. The use that **some

anti-human so to speak.

You seem to ignore the basics of genetics, or, at least, you seem to
contradict yourself.

Producing human clones is useless.
Incidentally, Nature produces few "clones" (eg homozygote twins) NOT
without reason. A population with limited variation in its genetic
material is
subject to (wait for it) diseases and other problems. Darwin docet.

BTW, this is the *genetic* reason why marriages between relatives are
NOT encouraged.

Instead, cloning human **organs** is a most interesting research area.

As to cloning per se, just to split hairs, the laws of quantum
mechanics prevent us from producing two **perfectly** identical human
beings, however similar two such beings can look.

Even if this were possible, and it isn't, environment makes people
(more or less) different, as recent theories (e.g. neural Darwinism
etc.) indicate.

Anyway, limited or reduced genetic variation in a population IS,
genetically speaking, a bad thing.

Strictly speaking, you cannot make **any** statement about a second
world. Believing in it or not is your free choice.

You seem to ignore Kant's thought, inter alia.

Why not read a few books instead of posting such manifestos ?
Rem tene, verba sequentur ...

By the way, you can waste your life whether you are religious or not.
Yet again, this has NOTHING to do with religion.

Re-add the miibus or delete the NIC's in the uses miibus section that
you aren't using.

OFF TOPIC means it doesn't belong on this list.  Adding OFF TOPIC
to the subject header doesn't make it ok to post on this list.

Again...

Can we PLEASE either put an end to this or else move it to someplace
where it is not off-topic, maybe talk.religion.misc ?

The person who posted it here is probably not even subscribed to this
list, just a drive-by spammer.

Strangely enough most of the responses so far have pointed out that it
is off-topic here, and then continued on to discuss the issue anyway.

It's off-topic here.  So either stop or take it somewhere else.

-Mitch

Guys,

Which is considered more correct; to edit /etc/periodic/*/999.local,
or to create an /etc/daily.local?  Which should we recommend to new
users?

Or is there some other recommended way to alter the daily, etc jobs?

Hello Everyone -- thanks for your help in advance.

I'm running FreeBSD4.0Release.  When receiving mail from other smtp hosts,
sendmail seems to delay when the smtp connection is opened.  The mail
eventually is delivered, but not without delay.  I can tell this by
sending mail to the freebsd server, then watching "ps aux" until the mail
shows up.

On the other hand when I'm sending mail from the freebsd server to another
mail host, it is immediately delivered.
 
Thanks
joel@pibervision.com

I currently have the following entry in my /etc/fstab in order to mount my
MS-DOS filesystem under FreeBSD:

/dev/wd0s1	/msdos		msdos	rw

The filesystem is being mounted correctly, but only root can write to it, the
other users cannot. I thought that this might simply be changed be changing the
permissions of /msdos (where the DOS-partition is mounted to) but this does not
work. So, how do I make my mounted DOS-partition writeable for all?

Greetings,
Nils

not to be too blunt, but you are a jack-ass.  i would like to take
snippettes of your manifesto and comment them, as i would normally in this
type of forum, however, your manifesto displays such a lack of education and
seems to embrace ignorance with such enthusiasm, that i do not believe that
my (meager) words could influence you.  also, your defensiveness and desire
to spam this hollow rant appears to be a cry for confrontation.  i will
submiss to this, but please keep it off of this mailing list.  this is a
forum for FreeBSD, not a "someone made fun of me because i'm an atheist, and
now i'm insecure in my beliefs" mailing list.  ta-ta.

   The Athiest's Manifesto



 We live in a world full of Gods.  Many different cultures have many
different Gods.  There are two classes of Gods.  The Gods of the past, which
usually come in groups, which were generally used to explain things that the
people did not understand.  From the roaming patterns of buffalo, to
lightning and echos, people have made up stories to explain things they did
not understand, because ignorance of a subject leads to fear of it.  Lack of
knowlege can be frightening.  Still, the people of today look back at these
anchient religions and call them "myths".  They chuckle when they think of
the ignorance required to believe that the sun is a God's Chariot.

 This brings us to the Gods of the present.  Today's religions are commonly
Monotheistic, relying on the belief of a single all powerful God.  Today's
Gods usually provide us with two messages.  One is a social code which lays
out a model of society for people to abide by.  The other is a explination
of the fundamental questions which people tend to ask.  "Where did we come
from ?"  "Why are we here ?" and "What happens when we die ?".  None of
these questions can be answered to anyone's true satisfaction.  Ignorance
creates insecurity, therefore the people need to find a way to fill in this
gap in their knowlege.  The most common religion in the world today is
Christianity and it's derivitives (Catholicism, Mormon, Islam, etc).
Christianity provides the social code, and it also fills in the gaps in our
knowlege, explaining the answers to these questions via the written and
translated stories of people who lived 2000 years ago.

 What kind of people existed 2000 years ago ?  By our standards today, they
were ignorant, violent, socially obtuse, and worse.  They treated women as
objects, and slavery for both sex and labor was common.  The people of this
era were far less advanced than the Greeks, who's beliefs we laugh at today.
And yet, some how, the words, stories, and beliefs of these people are taken
as absolute fact by millions of people all over the world today.
Christianity speaks of Jesus of Nazerith, the Christ, the son of God, who
was born of a virgin, and walked about the people of the time and performed
miracles and preached the word of God.  Because of the historical impact of
the man referred to, one can hardly deny that a man named Jesus of Nazerith
exists, however, in order to believe the rest of his tale, you must take the
word of ignorant people  of the past as fact with no proof, evidence, or
other information.  This is commonly referred to as "blind faith".

 Millions of people choose to dedicate hours, days, and years of their life
worshipping this Christian God.  They are so certain that these people of
the past, whom they probably aren't even decended from, are speaking the
truth, that they are willing to devote their entire lives to this "story".
They believe in a God, who in the past performed many many miracles, but for
some reason has decided to discontinue his supernatural behaviors.  God no
longer comes to earth and speaks with men, as he did in the past.

 Why is it people are blind to the fact that they are emulating the same
behaviors they criticize the Greeks, American Indians, and others for ?  How
can anyone honestly take this 2000 year old story as fact, with no evidence,
and devote thier entire lives to it ?  I would like to put forth my theory
on that subject.

 As we've estabished, the people of today have the same types of
insecurities that need "explaining".  The fear of death has made men invent
the world of spirituality.  The idea that when one dies, that is the end;
that one's bones go into the ground and decompose, is too frightening or
depressing to people.  So instead, they have to believe that some part of
them is immortal.  That they can always live on in some form or another.  I
call this an emotional crutch.  It's a way of dealing with one's
insecurities about our lives.  It makes us feel important, like we're
something more than a street sweeper, or garbage collector.  We're all
immortal souls with a much more glorious future ahead of us.  This emotional
crutch helps many people get through the day with a little self esteem and
hope, and I don't begrudge them their crutch.  What I do disagree with is
the ignorance, but I would not be one to demand that others give up their
emotional crutches in the name of enlightenment.  I believe that enforcing
your beliefs on another person, especially beliefs based solely on blind
faith, to be the highest crime one human can do to another, short of taking
their life.

 So if we, the atheist, are going to allow the street sweeper to believe,
and we're going to choose not to believe, then what is the problem ?  What
is the purpose of this manefesto ?  I believe that atheists are condemned by
the majority of the population.  Those of us who are secure enough in our
own existance, and who feel that the 70 plus or minus 5 years on this earth
is all we have, are treated like unholy fools.  Those who will be punished
in the afterlife.  Those who are infected with this mental epidemic tend to
react to the atheist in one of several ways.  One way is to try to convert
or convince the atheist that the 2000 year old story is true, and that the
atheist needs to change his/her ways, lest they face eternal hellfire.  The
second way is to simply exclude and disassociate from the atheist, perhaps
making comments about the "poor" soul to other believers.

 You'll notice I referred to religion as a mental epidemic.  Many believers
take this as an insult.  I label religion such, because of certain behaviors
that today's "evolved" religions have.

 (1) Questioning the religion's validity, asking for proof, expressing
skepticism, etc, are all considered to be "sins" or crimes under the
religion.  In other words, independant, logical, unbiased thought are not
allowed.  Back in the earlier times when the followers were a little more
"rabid" people were burned to death for expressing such ideas.

 (2) Religion is taught to children at a VERY young age.  Basically, from
kindergarden to adulthood, a believing parent is supposed to enroll the
child in some kind of religous program like Sunday School.  The reason for
this is to expose the child to religion at an early age, before rational
logical thought develops.  This way, the child grows up with religion, so
that any thoughts, ideas, concepts of atheism or disbelief are completely
alien to them.  An analigous example would be Hitler's Youth.  Hitler also
knew this concept well.  If you wish to spread an idea, and have it safe
from independant or radical thought, ingrain it in the children before they
can reason.  Today's religions have it down to a science, with songs,
videos, and activities designed to make the child a believer before they
truly even understand what God is.  If people waited until age 13-15 before
introducing religion to their children, so that the children could
rationally decide if this was what they wanted to believe, religion would
not be such a wide spread epidemic.

 (3) Religions instruct their people to attempt to convert (or in some
radical cases, kill) any disbelievers.  The kinder, more passive religions
will simply ask their congregation to bring new people into the church every
week.  Once a person visits the church once or twice, the church has them
added to their mailing and phone lists.  They attempt to get the person to
regularly attend.  Then they attempt to get the person to participate in a
ritual, such as baptism or confession.  These are relatively benign
activities, and usually can only trap the weak minded.  The more "active"
religions send people out to visit your home.  They want to come in and talk
to you about god and convince you that the 2000 year old story is true
(because they say it is).  They run commercials, and give your free
literature or free copies of the bible.  They'll do anything to convert you
to their way.  Why ?  Because their religion specifies it.

 (4) Religion requires that you disbelieve anything scientific that might
possibly contradict the religion.  We've all seen and heard religous people
sit and argue about how the entire sciences of Biology, Genetics, and
Physics are just plain wrong, because the 2000 year old story contradicts
it.

 (5) Religion covers every base.  No matter what kind of argument or
evidence you can bring up to attempt to contradict religion, the believer
can always simply make up a little story or "possibility" of how God, using
his supernatural powers, can simply have "made it that way".  Take for
instance the Dinosaurs.  Either they didn't exist, and the bones "are really
from contemporary animals, which are being fitted together incorrectly to
look like a creature that never existed", or "God put those bones down
there."  No one knows why.  Or how about how we are all decended from Adam
and Eve ?  Adam and Eve must not have truely been human, or mankind would
have died from inbred genetic diseases (insufficeient gene pool), after the
first couple hundred generations.  And how did those people in the bible
live for hundreds of years ?  Were the laws of physics and the nature of
human biology that different back then ?  Religion fields these questions
with ease.  "God made it that way".  "It's all part of God's plan".


 Beyond the grievences I have as an atheist living in a belief based
society, I also have grievences as a human being.  I have a personal care
and interest in the well-being of my species.  I would like to see mankind
reach out into space, establish colonies on other planets and systems.
Become something more than the proverbial 2 day mold on a piece of bread
(before it is thrown out), before conditions in our solar system change and
erase us from existance.  Truthfully, everyone should care about mankind's
development.  The problem is this.  The religions are "anti-science" in many
respects.  There are many things, like cloning, which we should not do
because that is God's territory.  "Playing God" is not allowed.  Add that to
the fact that many of man's best minds, people who could be possible
Einsteins of certain fields, are robbed of their potential because they are
infected with this mental disease.  If John Doe grows up believing that
evolution, biology and genetics are in conflict with his religion, he
certainly wouldn't excersize the possibility that maybe he would have become
one of the best Geneticists in the history of the science.  Not only that,
but those who don't believe, and wish to advance mankind's knowlege are
restrained by the believers.  They are forced to move at a slow enough pace
so that the religions can readjust, reevaluate, and reinterpret the words of
their religion so that they don't reach a point in which they cannot explain
how their religion can be true with science showing the oppisite.  Then
there are such fanatics who spend every waking hour worshiping God, to the
point which they're throwing away the most valuable thing they own.  Life.
Real life, here on earth.  One only has so much time.  If one spends all of
that time trying to get ahead on the "next" life, they are throwing this
life away, and not contributing to the society and species as a whole.
Religion is a serious drain on mankind's most important resources, manpower
and time.  And no matter how much science proves that the world is 4 billion
years old and not 15,000 years old, and that the universe was formed through
the mixing and spreading of elements, and not by the wave of a magic wand,
and no matter how many times scientists try to show that life on earth was
formed by the interactions of nucleic acids (and it still is every day),
it's absolutely impossible to convince a believer that the simplest answer
is the correct answer.  The world is as it seems.  There is no second world,
second life, greater power, or magic that makes it all possible.  And it's
sad, because we need every one of those believers with us, here on earth,
helping out, not praying in some church or temple in front of some clown in
a suit or fancy religious outfit.

 I am an atheist.  I live in a world full of people, blind to their own
ignorance, dedicated to a 2000 year old story written by people who's
intellect doesn't even compare to an 8th grader.  I have to live with these
people, respect thier beliefs, and endure their constant attempts to convert
me into one of their ilk.  I have to watch as millions of man-years go down
the drain, wasted away in foolishness.  I watch as other atheists have to
hide their beliefs, to avoid being condemned by the believers and ostrasized
from society.  But as I'm watching, I'm waiting.  I see with every
generation, more and more people are simply "going through the motions".
They take part in the process, but they don't really believe in it.  They
simply do what is expected of them.  Soon, they reach a certain age or time
in their life in which they no longer attend the church, but they "still
believe".  They don't pray anymore but they "still believe".  They go about
living their real lives, pretending to themselves and others that they
believe.  These are a kind of "Casual Christians".  This behavior shows the
deterioration of the true believers as a whole.  A pattern author Frank
Herbert referred to as "rot at the core".  As parents become more and more
lax about their own religious patterns, they begin to spare their children
the foolishness of church and Sunday School.  Slowly the religious base of
mankind is deteriorating.  People are giving less and less credability to
the 2000 year old story, as they grow up in a world of computers, cloning,
genetic therapy, and microbiology.  It's only a matter of time until,
hopefully, enough of us break free of this mental disease and begin to live
life for the here and now and not to please some imaginary God in order to
gain entrance to some fantasy land.  I am not alone.  Talking privately with
many others of my generation, I know I'm not the only one who thinks
religious people are foolish.  While most will tell an adult they believe in
God, it's simply because they don't want to experience the social punishment
of being a disbeliever.  So we watch and wait.  Wait for the world to wake
up from this 2000 year old dream.  Some day people will look back on
Christianity the same way people look back at Zeus and Apollo.  They'll ask
how a people who've mastered genetics, computers, atomic physics, etc, can
possibly believe in such childish nonsense.  The answer is, most of us
don't, we're just afraid to admit it, because we've seen what kind of
violence the rabid religious can bring forth when their beliefs are
threatened.  So rather than rising against religion and preaching against
it, we watch and wait for it to die of apathy.  If we're wrong, we'll be
condemned to hell for all eternity.  If the religious are wrong, then
they'll have thrown away the single most valuable thing they possess.  Their
life.  I am an atheist.  This is my manifesto.  It is the first step in
curing the disease.

Well, miibus is enabled. I am using a rl0 device. Here's the relevant
snippet from my kernel config file:
,----[ SOUP ]
| # PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code.
| device		miibus		# MII bus support
| device		rl		# RealTek 8129/8139
| 
| device		ed0             # I have a PCI N2K nic
`----

All other NICs are commented out.

Also, how would you explain that the kernel builds with the *same*
configuration file using "make buildkernel KERNEL=SOUP" from /usr/src,
and fails to build the usual way?

Thanks for any ideas,

I am trying to set up a secure tunnel to another host.
The first line bellow is my command line and I have been assured that the
syntax is correct.
I have also been assured that the remote host is set up correctly.
I have a good point-to-point connection and am able to ping them.

When I issue the command line with the -v for verbose messaging on, I get
this feedback.
Can anyone help me diagnose my problem?

They might still be left over from your initial installation.  The
initial install installs profiled libs by default.

.a are static, or archive, libraries.  .so are dynamic libraries.
Both files are ELF files, the difference is how they are linked
into the program.  Static libraries are included into the program
binary.  Dynamic libraries aren't included in the program binary.
Instead, when the binary runs, it calls the dynamic linker, ld,
which then loads the dynamic library into memory and uses it.
This lets the dynamic library be shared between different programs
thus saving on memory.  It's a bit more complex than that, but
that is the basic picture.

HTH.

I am using FreeBSD 2.2.6 and am trying to add a disk.  I have made the
device
sd3 and when I do the sysinstall version of adding the disk I get
"sd3s1e device not configured".  when I do the command line version
everything works until the newfs part.
I type "newfs /dev/rsd3c" and get "cannot read disk label".  All the
instructions I have used are off www.freebsd.org.  What else can I do to
add this disk?  Oh and it is an 8gig scsi disk.

Thanks in advance

You need to run an identd server. 

I recommend pidentd or oidentd.

I think that you can unmount it, change the permissions, then remount it.

That's suppost to work.

Are they not just old copies? ls -l /usr/lib and see if the dates match
up, or whether the _p is much older, from a previous build/install.

ben@magnesium:~$ file /usr/lib/libc.{a,so,so.3}
/usr/lib/libc.a:    current ar archive
/usr/lib/libc.so:   symbolic link to libc.so.3
/usr/lib/libc.so.3: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), not stripped

nope.  All files are needed, aout libs should be in /usr/lib/aout.

> Does any of FreeBSD programs still use aout libs?

I think the FreeBSD native Netscape binaries are *still* a.out, despite
the fact we're now in the second major release cycle (3.x and 4.x) which
have used ELF binaries as default.  You might have some old stuff in
/usr/local which is a.out, so I wouldn't get rid of a.out stuff yet.

looks like libutil wants to use freeaddrinfo (new with FreeBSD 4, as
it's IPv6 related), but it is linking with an old libc, or something...
Have you tried recompiling imapd?

Yes, thank you, recompiling the port did it!

Cookies have nothing to do with OS or with Perl.  It has to
do with what web browser you're using, and how your application
is written.

If you write your application correctly, you can use cookies
just fine.  To find out how to do that with Perl, type
'perldoc CGI'.

IE doesn't run on FreeBSD.

If this isn't enough information for you, please ask in an appropriate
place (news:comp.infosystems.www.cgi.authoring).

|
|  We live in a world full of Gods.  Many
different cultures have many
| different Gods.  There are two classes of Gods.
The Gods of the past, which
| usually come in groups, which were generally
used to explain things that the
| people did not understand.  From the roaming
patterns of buffalo, to
| lightning and echos, people have made up stories
to explain things they did
| not understand, because ignorance of a subject
leads to fear of it.  Lack of
| knowlege can be frightening.  Still, the people
of today look back at these
| anchient religions and call them "myths".  They
chuckle when they think of
| the ignorance required to believe that the sun
is a God's Chariot.
|
|  This brings us to the Gods of the present.
Today's religions are commonly
| Monotheistic, relying on the belief of a single
all powerful God.  Today's
| Gods usually provide us with two messages.  One
is a social code which lays
| out a model of society for people to abide by.
The other is a explination
| of the fundamental questions which people tend
to ask.  "Where did we come
| from ?"  "Why are we here ?" and "What happens
when we die ?".  None of
| these questions can be answered to anyone's true
satisfaction.  Ignorance
| creates insecurity, therefore the people need to
find a way to fill in this
| gap in their knowlege.  The most common religion
in the world today is
| Christianity and it's derivitives (Catholicism,
Mormon, Islam, etc).
| Christianity provides the social code, and it
also fills in the gaps in our
| knowlege, explaining the answers to these
questions via the written and
| translated stories of people who lived 2000
years ago.
|
|  What kind of people existed 2000 years ago ?
By our standards today, they
| were ignorant, violent, socially obtuse, and
worse.  They treated women as
| objects, and slavery for both sex and labor was
common.  The people of this
| era were far less advanced than the Greeks,
who's beliefs we laugh at today.
| And yet, some how, the words, stories, and
beliefs of these people are taken
| as absolute fact by millions of people all over
the world today.
| Christianity speaks of Jesus of Nazerith, the
Christ, the son of God, who
| was born of a virgin, and walked about the
people of the time and performed
| miracles and preached the word of God.  Because
of the historical impact of
| the man referred to, one can hardly deny that a
man named Jesus of Nazerith
| exists, however, in order to believe the rest of
his tale, you must take the
| word of ignorant people  of the past as fact
with no proof, evidence, or
| other information.  This is commonly referred to
as "blind faith".
|
|  Millions of people choose to dedicate hours,
days, and years of their life
| worshipping this Christian God.  They are so
certain that these people of
| the past, whom they probably aren't even
decended from, are speaking the
| truth, that they are willing to devote their
entire lives to this "story".
| They believe in a God, who in the past performed
many many miracles, but for
| some reason has decided to discontinue his
supernatural behaviors.  God no
| longer comes to earth and speaks with men, as he
did in the past.
|
|  Why is it people are blind to the fact that
they are emulating the same
| behaviors they criticize the Greeks, American
Indians, and others for ?  How
| can anyone honestly take this 2000 year old
story as fact, with no evidence,
| and devote thier entire lives to it ?  I would
like to put forth my theory
| on that subject.
|
|  As we've estabished, the people of today have
the same types of
| insecurities that need "explaining".  The fear
of death has made men invent
| the world of spirituality.  The idea that when
one dies, that is the end;
| that one's bones go into the ground and
decompose, is too frightening or
| depressing to people.  So instead, they have to
believe that some part of
| them is immortal.  That they can always live on
in some form or another.  I
| call this an emotional crutch.  It's a way of
dealing with one's
| insecurities about our lives.  It makes us feel
important, like we're
| something more than a street sweeper, or garbage
collector.  We're all
| immortal souls with a much more glorious future
ahead of us.  This emotional
| crutch helps many people get through the day
with a little self esteem and
| hope, and I don't begrudge them their crutch.
What I do disagree with is
| the ignorance, but I would not be one to demand
that others give up their
| emotional crutches in the name of enlightenment.
I believe that enforcing
| your beliefs on another person, especially
beliefs based solely on blind
| faith, to be the highest crime one human can do
to another, short of taking
| their life.
|
|  So if we, the atheist, are going to allow the
street sweeper to believe,
| and we're going to choose not to believe, then
what is the problem ?  What
| is the purpose of this manefesto ?  I believe
that atheists are condemned by
| the majority of the population.  Those of us who
are secure enough in our
| own existance, and who feel that the 70 plus or
minus 5 years on this earth
| is all we have, are treated like unholy fools.
Those who will be punished
| in the afterlife.  Those who are infected with
this mental epidemic tend to
| react to the atheist in one of several ways.
One way is to try to convert
| or convince the atheist that the 2000 year old
story is true, and that the
| atheist needs to change his/her ways, lest they
face eternal hellfire.  The
| second way is to simply exclude and disassociate
from the atheist, perhaps
| making comments about the "poor" soul to other
believers.
|
|  You'll notice I referred to religion as a
mental epidemic.  Many believers
| take this as an insult.  I label religion such,
because of certain behaviors
| that today's "evolved" religions have.
|
|  (1) Questioning the religion's validity, asking
for proof, expressing
| skepticism, etc, are all considered to be "sins"
or crimes under the
| religion.  In other words, independant, logical,
unbiased thought are not
| allowed.  Back in the earlier times when the
followers were a little more
| "rabid" people were burned to death for
expressing such ideas.
|
|  (2) Religion is taught to children at a VERY
young age.  Basically, from
| kindergarden to adulthood, a believing parent is
supposed to enroll the
| child in some kind of religous program like
Sunday School.  The reason for
| this is to expose the child to religion at an
early age, before rational
| logical thought develops.  This way, the child
grows up with religion, so
| that any thoughts, ideas, concepts of atheism or
disbelief are completely
| alien to them.  An analigous example would be
Hitler's Youth.  Hitler also
| knew this concept well.  If you wish to spread
an idea, and have it safe
| from independant or radical thought, ingrain it
in the children before they
| can reason.  Today's religions have it down to a
science, with songs,
| videos, and activities designed to make the
child a believer before they
| truly even understand what God is.  If people
waited until age 13-15 before
| introducing religion to their children, so that
the children could
| rationally decide if this was what they wanted
to believe, religion would
| not be such a wide spread epidemic.
|
|  (3) Religions instruct their people to attempt
to convert (or in some
| radical cases, kill) any disbelievers.  The
kinder, more passive religions
| will simply ask their congregation to bring new
people into the church every
| week.  Once a person visits the church once or
twice, the church has them
| added to their mailing and phone lists.  They
attempt to get the person to
| regularly attend.  Then they attempt to get the
person to participate in a
| ritual, such as baptism or confession.  These
are relatively benign
| activities, and usually can only trap the weak
minded.  The more "active"
| religions send people out to visit your home.
They want to come in and talk
| to you about god and convince you that the 2000
year old story is true
| (because they say it is).  They run commercials,
and give your free
| literature or free copies of the bible.  They'll
do anything to convert you
| to their way.  Why ?  Because their religion
specifies it.
|
|  (4) Religion requires that you disbelieve
anything scientific that might
| possibly contradict the religion.  We've all
seen and heard religous people
| sit and argue about how the entire sciences of
Biology, Genetics, and
| Physics are just plain wrong, because the 2000
year old story contradicts
| it.
|
|  (5) Religion covers every base.  No matter what
kind of argument or
| evidence you can bring up to attempt to
contradict religion, the believer
| can always simply make up a little story or
"possibility" of how God, using
| his supernatural powers, can simply have "made
it that way".  Take for
| instance the Dinosaurs.  Either they didn't
exist, and the bones "are really
| from contemporary animals, which are being
fitted together incorrectly to
| look like a creature that never existed", or
"God put those bones down
| there."  No one knows why.  Or how about how we
are all decended from Adam
| and Eve ?  Adam and Eve must not have truely
been human, or mankind would
| have died from inbred genetic diseases
(insufficeient gene pool), after the
| first couple hundred generations.  And how did
those people in the bible
| live for hundreds of years ?  Were the laws of
physics and the nature of
| human biology that different back then ?
Religion fields these questions
| with ease.  "God made it that way".  "It's all
part of God's plan".
|
|
|  Beyond the grievences I have as an atheist
living in a belief based
| society, I also have grievences as a human
being.  I have a personal care
| and interest in the well-being of my species.  I
would like to see mankind
| reach out into space, establish colonies on
other planets and systems.
| Become something more than the proverbial 2 day
mold on a piece of bread
| (before it is thrown out), before conditions in
our solar system change and
| erase us from existance.  Truthfully, everyone
should care about mankind's
| development.  The problem is this.  The
religions are "anti-science" in many
| respects.  There are many things, like cloning,
which we should not do
| because that is God's territory.  "Playing God"
is not allowed.  Add that to
| the fact that many of man's best minds, people
who could be possible
| Einsteins of certain fields, are robbed of their
potential because they are
| infected with this mental disease.  If John Doe
grows up believing that
| evolution, biology and genetics are in conflict
with his religion, he
| certainly wouldn't excersize the possibility
that maybe he would have become
| one of the best Geneticists in the history of
the science.  Not only that,
| but those who don't believe, and wish to advance
mankind's knowlege are
| restrained by the believers.  They are forced to
move at a slow enough pace
| so that the religions can readjust, reevaluate,
and reinterpret the words of
| their religion so that they don't reach a point
in which they cannot explain
| how their religion can be true with science
showing the oppisite.  Then
| there are such fanatics who spend every waking
hour worshiping God, to the
| point which they're throwing away the most
valuable thing they own.  Life.
| Real life, here on earth.  One only has so much
time.  If one spends all of
| that time trying to get ahead on the "next"
life, they are throwing this
| life away, and not contributing to the society
and species as a whole.
| Religion is a serious drain on mankind's most
important resources, manpower
| and time.  And no matter how much science proves
that the world is 4 billion
| years old and not 15,000 years old, and that the
universe was formed through
| the mixing and spreading of elements, and not by
the wave of a magic wand,
| and no matter how many times scientists try to
show that life on earth was
| formed by the interactions of nucleic acids (and
it still is every day),
| it's absolutely impossible to convince a
believer that the simplest answer
| is the correct answer.  The world is as it
seems.  There is no second world,
| second life, greater power, or magic that makes
it all possible.  And it's
| sad, because we need every one of those
believers with us, here on earth,
| helping out, not praying in some church or
temple in front of some clown in
| a suit or fancy religious outfit.
|
|  I am an atheist.  I live in a world full of
people, blind to their own
| ignorance, dedicated to a 2000 year old story
written by people who's
| intellect doesn't even compare to an 8th grader.
I have to live with these
| people, respect thier beliefs, and endure their
constant attempts to convert
| me into one of their ilk.  I have to watch as
millions of man-years go down
| the drain, wasted away in foolishness.  I watch
as other atheists have to
| hide their beliefs, to avoid being condemned by
the believers and ostrasized
| from society.  But as I'm watching, I'm waiting.
I see with every
| generation, more and more people are simply
"going through the motions".
| They take part in the process, but they don't
really believe in it.  They
| simply do what is expected of them.  Soon, they
reach a certain age or time
| in their life in which they no longer attend the
church, but they "still
| believe".  They don't pray anymore but they
"still believe".  They go about
| living their real lives, pretending to
themselves and others that they
| believe.  These are a kind of "Casual
Christians".  This behavior shows the
| deterioration of the true believers as a whole.
A pattern author Frank
| Herbert referred to as "rot at the core".  As
parents become more and more
| lax about their own religious patterns, they
begin to spare their children
| the foolishness of church and Sunday School.
Slowly the religious base of
| mankind is deteriorating.  People are giving
less and less credability to
| the 2000 year old story, as they grow up in a
world of computers, cloning,
| genetic therapy, and microbiology.  It's only a
matter of time until,
| hopefully, enough of us break free of this
mental disease and begin to live
| life for the here and now and not to please some
imaginary God in order to
| gain entrance to some fantasy land.  I am not
alone.  Talking privately with
| many others of my generation, I know I'm not the
only one who thinks
| religious people are foolish.  While most will
tell an adult they believe in
| God, it's simply because they don't want to
experience the social punishment
| of being a disbeliever.  So we watch and wait.
Wait for the world to wake
| up from this 2000 year old dream.  Some day
people will look back on
| Christianity the same way people look back at
Zeus and Apollo.  They'll ask
| how a people who've mastered genetics,
computers, atomic physics, etc, can
| possibly believe in such childish nonsense.  The
answer is, most of us
| don't, we're just afraid to admit it, because
we've seen what kind of
| violence the rabid religious can bring forth
when their beliefs are
| threatened.  So rather than rising against
religion and preaching against
| it, we watch and wait for it to die of apathy.
If we're wrong, we'll be
| condemned to hell for all eternity.  If the
religious are wrong, then
| they'll have thrown away the single most
valuable thing they possess.  Their
| life.  I am an atheist.  This is my manifesto.
It is the first step in
| curing the disease.

Hi, guys

Is my first time in this list!!! I'm a brazillian guy 
And my version of my FreeBSD is 3.2Release

I 'd like to know how to display the output screen of a terminal into
another one ? Is it possible ? 

One example, I'm compiling a program into the first virtual console, and
when I need call the X, so, I dont' want to put the compiling of the
program in background, I decide to call the second virtual console,
After this, I log on it and call X, and inside of X, I need to see what
are happening in the compiling, so, instead of I press CTRL+ALT+F1, I
simply call a X-Term and "I dont know" type some commands and the
output screen of the first virtual console appears on the x-term.

I'm not referring to "xconsole".

If there are other brazillians on this mailing list, please write to me
in Portuguese, or simply write your E-Mail's for me make a Contact List
containing only brazilians. 'Cause is more easy to me talk face to face
with a brazilian or a portuguese too.

Warning - Portuguese Text - Sorry 8-)

Se hА outros brasileiros nesta lista de discussЦo, por favor escrevam
para min em PortuguЙs, ou simplesmente escrevam seus E-Mails para eu
fazer uma Lista de Contatos contendo somente brasileiros. Porque e mais
facil para mim conversar cara a cara com um brasileiro ou um portuguЙs
tambИm ( Eih, lusos, vocЙs tambИm )

I have this Problem if I put in a CD from a No-Name Company or a company
which isn't supported by my burner. Try Kodak CD-Rs I have always had
success with them.

Hmmm... probably a better way to fix it would be to just type:

    $ stty erase ^H

at the prompt, before you type vi.  Or, add that into your .profile
or .login file.

It seems like there are probably better projects for improving your
C skills.  Maybe you could use Vim, and add a feature to it (check
with the vim developers list to see what is going on).

I just completed an install of the linux base package that emulates red
Hat 5.2 on a 3.3.4 system using the ports collection. My intention is to
use the linux emulation to run sybase for linux on my system.

I would like to get some input as to wheither I should try to run the
11.0.3.3 version  or the 11.9.2 version. Though I am leaning towards the
latter version.

I want to set up the database with a web frontend using php for the forms
and have it accept input form both a custom VB application and the php
forms.

 Right now the only documentation I can find on how to do this is an
article from comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc ( search Sybase via FreeBSD Author
is Reinoud van Leeuwon 4/4/2000 ) .

An article at www.samag.com ( january 2000 ) on emulating linux on
freeBsd.

and the Handbook section on emulating Linux.

there was an article at www.martin-place.com about sybase  but it seems to
be unavailable today.

I noticed when I run kldstat i get
a listing for the kernel 

and 
ID Refs Address  Size Name
2  1   0xc088d00 e000 linux.ko

and modstat gives me 

modstat:/dev/lkm: device not configured


Questions:

What should be my next step? 



I have downloaded the files from sysbase for 11.9.2.
 what command should I use to install them ( rpm for freebsd or the rpm in
the directory under linux compat directory) ?

I had and install fail last saturday ( different machine same OS, version 
)when I used rpm without the linux compat path.  

what conditions need to be in place to get it to work this time. I added
the options to the kernel from the Samag article.  What else do I need to
add or remove?

Kernel changes i made: 

options "P1003_1B"
options "_KPOSIX_PRIORTY_SCHEDULING"
options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L"
options SYSVSHM
options SYSVMSG
options SYSVSEM
options USER_LDT

I saw  these in questions email but I'm not sure if they are necessary

options SHMMAXPGS=10000
options SHMMNI=100
options SHMSEG=10
options SEMMNS=200
options SEMMNI=70
options SEMMSL=61

Are there any more articles I can read?


TIA

Hi!.

Im trying to install 4.0-RELEASE from a CD I created from a ISO image
downloaded from ftp.freebsd.org. When Im done with the installation and
have formated the disk and the installatin program is about to begin
copying the files to disk then I get some kind of a trap saying.

PANIC: ffs_clusteralloc: map mismatch

I then tried to install 3.4-Relase also from a CD created from an ISO
image downloaded from ftp.freebsd.org and everything works with that
version.

But I really want to run FBSD 4.0 on this box so I moved the disk to
another mashine and did the installation there and everything when ok.
When I moved the disk over to the box I want to run it on and booted it
I got the following error message.

ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 309311 retrying
ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 309311 retrying
ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 309311 retrying
ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 309311ata0-master: WARNING: WAIT_READY
active=AT
A_ACTIVE_ATA
 falling back to PIO mode

Does this error message mean that there is somekind of a UDMA problem
on this box, or could i be something simple as a bad Cable ?.

Can anyone give me a clue whats wrong ?.

Im including all of the boot messages from this box.

Most gratefull for any hints or suggestions.

Regards Patrik Astrom, Stockholm Sweden.

I don't use .mail_aliases, I use /etc/aliases.

You just put the name, separated by a tab to the corresponding
user. For example:

postmaster	root

Then, type:
# newaliases

After you are done editing the file. I'm not sure if you do the
same thing for postfix though, since I use sendmail.

I would like to set up a cheap server with FreeBSD, here is my problem: the 
only scripting language I know is Visual Basic, so I would like to use 
Active Server Pages.  Will these work on a FreeBSD server?  I realize the 
use of Microsoft supported tech is sacrilege here, but it is what I know, 
call me a tool.

Thanks for your help,

Brad

>Unable to get ed0 working. Kernel compiles and reboots, I see a quick

(BTW, you can use dmesg to get a longer look at that message.)

This is a sort of answer with an embedded question:

When that happened to me it was because I hadn't given it the right IRQ and
port numbers for the particular ed0 card that I had. I had to edit
/boot/kernel.conf to give it the numbers. There was a very recent post here
asking how to find those numbers:

Subject: How to get irq and drq information?

The answer I saw assumed that FreeBSD knows the correct numbers. If that is
not the case, I still don't know the complete answer, but it seems to me
that I have in the past been able to get Windows 95/98 to divulge that
information. (I'm not sure that that meant that Windows had found out
without being told.) I have also on a couple of occasions gone to the
manufacturers website and downloaded the configuration programs for the
Ethernet boards in question. Those programs will not only tell you the
parameters of the board, but will let you change them. That turned out to
be necessary when we needed to put more than one Ethernet card into a
single computer. (It was very handy to have an extra old machine lying
around with DOS on it. We just moved the boards over to that machine and
ran the manufacturers' configuration programs there.)

If there's a a way to get FreeBSD to tell you the unknown parameters of an
Ethernet card that's plugged in but for which the software is not yet
correctly configured, I'd love to know about it, and it sounds like maybe
you would too.

Tool =0)
the GNOME project is allegedly writing a Visual BASIC clone (will use
Gtk+ as GUI, duh).
This is probably more of an Apache question, though.

Why add yet another daemon to your machine? inetd has ident support
built-in, at least on 3-STABLE and 4-STABLE.

From my search of the archives, it seems that setting up DSL with an
external modem and static IP is as simple as configuring the
interface.  Here is what I have added to /etc/rc.conf:

#ifconfig_ed0="inet 216.231.50.6  netmask 255.255.255.0"
#defaultrouter="216.231.50.1"

When I boot now I get this message:

/kernel: ed0: device timeout

'ifconfig -a' gives me this:

lp0: flags=8810 mtu 1500
ed0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
	inet 216.231.50.6 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 216.231.50.255
	ether 00:00:c0:cd:f0:c8 
lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384
	inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 

It appears to me that all should be going well.  However, I can't connect
to anything.  I wonder if this is a case of bad hardware.  It's an old ISA
NIC that I pulled out of a Boeing Surplus special that's labeled "SMC" and
nothing else.  I've never seen it working.
Has anyone ever seen a similar error message as mine regarding my NIC?  It
seems to be the only strangeness that I've encountered.

You should look at the program called 'watch' that comes with freebsd
or possibly install the third party program /usr/ports/misc/screen
which allows you to have a "floating console" which you can detach
and re-attach inside other consoles.

I was having this EXACT SAME PROBLEM the other day (Except not with
DSL).  I got my shitty card from a friend of mine who used to work at my
old ISP.  i was unable to fix this however, so i'd like to know how as
well

Those appear to be commented out. ;^) I hope that there are no `#'
signs in the rc.conf script.

What does "netstat -r" produce?

Perhaps, a misconfigured IRQ for the ed0 device?

Hi,

Either IRQ/IO Address of Ethernet adapter or

You must try to force it into 10-BaseT mode (full or half duplex), most of
the DSL Router/adapters I've seen are locked at 10Mbps, your ethernet may
be at 100Mbps for some reason (a PCI adapter?)...

Take care,
Randy Katz

PS - man 4 ed gives you the blurb on it...

   ed%d: device timeout  Indicates that an expected transmitter interrupt
     didn't occur. Usually caused by an interrupt conflict with another card
     on the ISA bus.

I would recommend IOHK (http://www.iohk.com/) as they have a long history 
of using BSD (BSDI/FreeBSD) - ask for thir GM Mr. SK Pang.

Dear Arcady Genkin,

Sysinstall failed to compile when I first built 4-(then)-CURRENT=20
although with a different error message as I recall. Well, there were=20
other bits out of, ehem, order, but I went ahead ruthlessly ...

The brute force method was (then) to remake the world (by the make=20
world tutorial, this time). Needless to say, it worked like charm and=20
fixed the "leftovers" so to speak.

If you don't feel like spotting the problem (it looks like something=20
DES-related ?), nuke it :-)

Best regards and best of luck,
Salvo  =20

Oops, that they are.  However, the reason I commented them out was because
it was interfering with my dial up interface.  They weren't commented out
when I brought up the network.

No, I said it's an old ISA card, definitely not 100Mbps.

On startup I get:

route: writing to routing socket: File exists
add net 10.0.4.0 gateway 10.0.4.1: File exists

I couldn't find anything about this in the route man page. "File exists" is
not meaningful to me in this context. Can anybody tell me what's going on
here? I can't tell whether this is strange, errorful, or normal.

Thanks.

What "File exists" means is that you have already set your default route.
So, look through your rc files and see where that route is being added
and comment out that line.

This happened once to me when I was using DHCP, and left the:
defaultrouter="192.168.0.1"

line in /etc/rc.conf

Hi all,

I'm having problems with this remote printer.  It
resides on the network and sits on 192.0.0.192.  I can
ping it fine, and telnet into it as well...

I've been reading and re-reading the handbook and "The
Complete FreeBSD", and am not getting very far.  The
lpd man page and the printcap man page are a little
more help but not much.

When I put the printer on the parport, I get excellent
printing thru magicfilter.  But when I take the
parport cable off and put it on the network it prints
the first line, then the second line about 5 tabs
over, and that's it.

I'm hoping there is some awesome docs somewhere.  But
I'm having problems... Any ideas?

Thanks...
 
-nate

4.0 does, but not as a RAID card.  It just shows up as an IDE controller
with the disks attached.

Hello everyone!

Well as you can tell by the subject I am having trouble getting both
moused and X to reconize and use my USB Microsoft Intellimouse.

I have the lines added in my kernel for usb support
	device uhci
	device ohci
	device usb
	device ums

I have done MAKEDEV ums0 in the /dev directory

I have the following lines in the rc.conf
	moused_enable="YES"
	moused_type="auto"
	moused_port="/dev/ums0"
	moused_flags=""
	
	usbd_enable="YES"
	usbd_flags=""

Now I know that in order to get XFree86-4.0 working wth the mouse I must
first get moused to work. I still have not been able to accomplish this.

In dmesg it shows that the following are detected.
	uhci0
	usb0
	uhub0

Also uhci1,usb1,uhub1.

It used to have ums0 ms intellimouse detect too but after i did cvsup to
-stable from -release and did all the neccessary things like make
world,kernel compile/install, /dev ; ./MAKEDEV all, and rebooted it is no
longer there. It didn't work before however even when it was detected.

So here I am completely stuck and out of ideas. If it helps the version of
my intellimouse is 1.1a

Thanks for taking the time to read this email. I hope you can help me.

-Kyle

Subject: sio2 inop after 3.4R -> 4.0R upgrade

I've a happy FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE system, using sio2.
An internal modem, located on an ISA slot, found by the kernel
sio2 at 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 9 on isa
sio2: type 16550A

$ vmstat -i
interrupt      total      rate
sio0 irq4      134695        0
sio1 irq3     5828191       18
sio2 irq9     5167693       16

Running right now,

Connect time: 0:19:42
5336012 octets in, 596814 octets out
  overall     5019 bytes/sec
  currently   4765 bytes/sec (over the last 5 secs)
  peak       16148 bytes/sec on Wed Apr 19 18:48:01 2000

with no errors.
deflink HDLC level errors:
 Bad Frame Check Sequence fields: 0
 Bad address (!= 0xff) fields:    0
 Bad command (!= 0x03) fields:    0
 Unrecognised protocol fields:    0

After migrating to 4.0R, with a GENERIC kernel, sio2 enabled
or manually configured using the boot floppy setting sio2/IO_COM3/irq9
I'm rewarded with 
sio2: configured irq 9 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0

Seems that it's clear sio2 works under 3.4R, it's expected to work
under 4.0R without fiddling.  Afterall it worked fine under 2.2.8R
through 3.4R. Moving the card to si3/0x2e8/irq9 also returned the same
bitmap error.

What's the magic to make it work under 4.0R?

Dear sir,

I see you've distributed some releases as ISO images, I just thought it would be a good idea if the stables or some of them also were placed.

Thanks for your time, kind regards,

There is a article in deamonnews.org which disucusses how to get FreeBSD to
work with ATM networks.

You goto the www.freebsd.org web site and click on the deamonews hyperlink
below.

I am hoping you are not talking about Automatic Teler Machines.

Looking foward to your feedback.

I have FreeBSD2.2.6.  I have made the devices for sd3 sd3c sd3s1e (just
trying)
and when I try to newfs I get device not configured.  Also an error pops
out on the
consiole when i do makedev.

Makedev:  Unknown major/minor for devtype

Ihave not wired down the devices in the kernel.  Will this help?  What
else should I look for?

That MAC address in the messages does not seem to belong to any of
your hardware. That would normally lead me to believe that the
10.0.0.4 address is leaking onto the net from someone else's
setup. However, if it is coming over the cable modem, I would expect
the MAC address to be that of your modem. I thought that's how cable
modem's bridged and that's how mine works. Could you try this,

  # tcpdump -en 'ether proto \arp || host 10.0.0.4'

And save the output. It might be interesting.

something else that may help:
my isp provides me a static ip, yet if i try to config it as static, it
doesn't work. i have to set it up as DHCP and it works like a champ, giving
me the same ip every time. one of their employees explained it's operation
to me once. it just didn't make sense to me WHY they do it that way. try
setting your nic in rc.conf to "DHCP" instead of inet xxx.xxx..  netmask
xxx.xxx...." it's worth a shot.

p.s. my isp is telocity

You're lucky your ISP's employees are capable of explaining something like
that.  What I got when I asked for help was:

"You bet I can help you.  You're running windows, right?"
"No"
"Mac?"
"FreeBSD"
"FreeB...wh.."
"Unix"
"Would you hold for a minute?................................................
.............................................................................
.............................................................................
......................I'm sorry, we don't support Unix.  But if you go to
linux.blahblah.com, there's all kinds of information to help you get set
up"

Okay, I just read the manual page.  If there is an interrupt conflict, how
do I go about changing that?  What commands tell me which ones are in
use?  Is it a simple matter of changing the line in the kernel config?

Yes (and recompiling your kernel, that is). You need to set correct
port *and* irq values. The hard thing is finding them out.

Ideally, there should be a DOS based setup utility for your card, but
IIRC you don't have any sort of drivers/docs for the card. If you went
to the manufacturer's website, you could definitely d/l the setup
utility from there. I have an ISA ne2000 card, if you want to give it
a shot, I can email you the setup disk for it.

You can also read Linux's Ethernet-HOWTO for help with identifying the
card. Specifically look at sections 5 and 7. That document describes
pretty much every card one can find, and gives links to manufacturer's
website.

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html

OTOH, if you had Window~1 installed on the same machine, you could use
it as a tool to determine the card's configuration (provided the card
is recognized by it).

You don't need this, if you look in /etc/usbd.conf, you will see that
usbd runs moused for you when your mouse is plugged in (and when the
machine is booted with the mouse plugged in).

What does the 'usbdevs' command show?

I really think the HP-722 is one of the earliest winprinters and that
you have to have Windows running before you can use it. The box for
the one I owned for a very short time also states that it can't be
networked.

This doesn't mean that you won't be able to use it but you may have to
look into the project that deals with such printers.

I just spent about 2 1/2 hours in windows trying to get the card to work
using downloaded drivers.  I've concluded that tomorrow I'll go buy a well
known, well supported one.  Any recommendations?  Preferrably cheap.

It is. Remove all traces of 'dns' from the hosts entry in the
service.switch file if you don't want DNS lookups. You also need to
have a FQDN for your host in /etc/hosts.

Sendmail wants to know the FQDN of the host it's running on. If
it can't find it elsewhere, it tries DNS. It does this on Linux too.

Subject: Strange message -- MARK --?
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

What is going on in my lab? Since I recently powered all machines up, several of
them, but not all of them, have a mysterious message after the login promt, like
this:

login:              -- MARK --
                -- MARK --


When I pressed enter the normal login:-prompt came back. I don't see how the
second line with -- MARK -- could appear, since the linefeed on the first line
should have given an intruder a Password:-prompt.

Is -- MARK -- a debug message? Or is MARK a person happily cracking away inside
my boxes? (a 'who' gave only 'root' on the machines)

The client machines are connected to a local 192.168-net with a 3.4-STABLE
server between them and the world. The message does not appear on the server.

The server had its last cvsup and make world at 29MAR2000, while the clients are
3.2-RELEASE (usenix '99 edition) compiled at 18MAY1999.

The entire lab has moved this week and the messages appeared only some 10
minutes after powerup in the new labs.

I have never seen this before in the lab and am VERY curious about it.

Cheers,
Micke

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

Correct me if I'm wrong but given you have a 20 GB IDE disk with 
one half (the first half ) with a Win98 installed then there is no way
with the present FreeBSD install disk set to boot a FreeBSD partition
(installation) that is installed on the second half of that hard disk.

So what is the way out of this dilemma? Are there 'better' bootloaders
than the stock ones that the FreeBSD installation floppy uses?

At least that was reported to me from a new user whom I recommended
to install FreeBSD 3.4. He got everything installed fine. Wanted to boot
the first time, F1 DOS, F2 FreeBSD and always ends with a ? when
pressing F2.

Why do new users have to fall into this trap?

what does the following mean: 

# last -20

....

qd               ttyp0    qd               Wed  Apr 23:02 - crash  (01:13)
....
....

I experienced a crash last night. No strange log messages, no kernel
core dump (it because it wasn't cooonfigured to dump core - I've
already corrected this). The only thing I found is that 'crash '
in lastlog.

So, Under which circumstances does crash appear in lastlog ? If I
turn off the power, will it appear next time system boots ? Or is
it added only when kernel panics ?

You may mount msdos with setting GID and UID of the owner 
of the files in the mounted file system and set mask for file 
permissions for files in it:

mount_msdos -m 775 -g  -u  /dev/wd0s1 /msdos

You may create a group (set write permission for it -m 775) and 
put all the users who need to write to this FS into group.

See 'man mount_msdos'

Subject: sendmail is complaining that mqueue doesn't exist

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

I did a dumb thing: I ran out of space on /var because
of a large message sitting in /var/spool/mqueue, so I
moved the contents of that directory over to
/usr/mqueue, and symlinked /var/spool/mqueue over to
that location. Then sendmail started complaining every
time I tried to send a message. It says '451
queuename: Cannot create "qfBAA00619" in
"/var/spool/mqueue" (euid=0): No such file or
directory'

Fine. So I deleted my symlink and built a new, empty
regular directory at /var/spool/mqueue. Same error. I
can't send mail, and it's making me sad. The mailq
command works, however (now that I've moved the queued
messages back into /var/spool/mqueue).

ls -l in /var/spool/ gives: 
...
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  daemon  512 Apr 20 02:02 mqueue
...

So why is it saying that mqueue doesn't exist? It
still has a bunch of queued messages in it, and mailq
finds them, so what's the problem?

I don't like having to use this yahoo account while my
server is broken. Please help.

 Yes. Looking at the dates I see that these are old libraries from
the initial binary installation. Is it safe to just delete them all?

 Thank you all guys for clarifying this.

Under Linux the syslogd writes this line into the syslog if nothing
happened (logging-wise) for the last 15? minutes, or so.  It does this, just to
inform you, that nothing happened, but that everything is still running.
I suspect that the FreeBSD syslog does the same thing.

Valery,
I think 'crash' appear in lastlog only when kernel panics will occur.
I saw same on one FreeBSD host, but don't have detailed information.
I think it's good idea to send this question to freebsd-hackers list.
If you'll catch any information about this problem, please, inform me.

Grigory.

Hi all,

thanks for the feedback on the last sendmail problem I had but I've still
got problems 
with it in the way that I can't rebuild sendmail. This is what I get when
I go to the 
/etc/mail directory... (I'm running FreeBSD 3.2 GENERIC)
---
# make
/usr/sbin/makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access
cannot open /etc/mail/access: no such file
*** Error code 2

Stop.
#
---
because I'm such a newbie, I don't understand what this means and it's
stopping me 
from relaying email :(

Also, where is the sendmail.cf file kept?

Cheers

Ian Clarke

In FreeBSD 4.0 or 5.0, add "device pcm" (see pcm(4)) to the configuration
of your kernel and in /dev/ do "./MAKEDEV snd0".

Slackware may use GNU su, which doesn't honour the wheel group (check the
documentation of GNU su for a chuckle).  On FreeBSD, either add the users
to the wheel group in /etc/group, for example like:

	wheel:*:0:root,zaid

or delete that group entirely if you prefer the GNU-style behaviour.  Have
a look at sudo in the ports collection too.

Hi,

I tried to do same things on my host and tried to send mail.
It works OK! 
Try to see permissions on your new mqueue dir and 
to check that symlink to it is correct.

I'm pretty damn sure this is the same thing being asked here several
times a week: Your BSD root partition must be inside the first 1024
cylinders of the IDE disk on most (?) systems. It's a BIOS restriction,
i.e. before FreeBSD can even try to boot. The second half of a 20 GB
disk sounds like it's too far in the back of the disk.

The approach I would recommend, is  split the Windows partition into two
parts: a first smaller part, (primary partition), for booting purposes,
containing (mainly) the system, including the Windows directory. Next,
the FreeBSD partition; and finally another Windows partition, up to the
end of the disk. This would make a separate logical disk, from Windows'
point of view, where the user can store their data. 

   HTH,
   Bart.

Help me please!

I am running FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE
(FreeBSD squid.rosbnk.ru 3.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE #0:
Mon Jul 12 18:34:19 MSD 1999   
root@squid.rosbnk.ru:/usr/src/sys/compile/SQUIDF  i386)
and all was well for a long time, I successfully rebuild
kernel several times, but suddenly something goes wrong and
step `make` (after `config` and `make depend`) ends with
errors:

  loading kernel  
  vfs_bio.o: In function `vfs_buf_set_valid':
  vfs_bio.o(.text+0x2569): undefined reference to `__cmpdi2'
  msdosfs_vnops.o: In function `msdosfs_readdir':

`__cmpdi2'
  *** Error code 1

  Stop.

This happens for GENERIC configuration too.

I search through the web and find messages in FreeBSD Mail
Archives with the same problem. Recommendations was to `make
clean` in kernel compile directory and to remove
/usr/src/sys and reinstall it. I followed these
recommendations, and in addition remove and install again
gcc-2.8.1 package, but nothing help.
Errors remain the same.

Are there another workarounds or I have to reinstall
FreeBSD?

Thanks in advance.

I have tried to make a CD with the ISO images.
I have used several different sites and tried with both 3.4 and 4.0
I boot from the disks but when the installation starts I always have problem with some directories and especially with the bin directory which makes the installation impossible.

Is it possible that the mages are corrupted or is it possible that there is something wrong with my CDROM drive;


any comments!

I downloaded the iso for 4.0 and used EZ-CDCreator from Adaptec to
burn an image. I then used it to install FreeBSD 4.0 on two different
computers. I would say that it is either your CD-R drive or you
mis-burned it. I can't help you there.

Hi,

Just need a little guide for info on installing FreeBSD onto a digital
HiNote VP745.
It had windows on it and I'm sick of it !  We use FreeBSD for all of of
Internet servers and I'm in the process of changing over all of our
other machines.

Any tips or ideas ?

Thanks

I have made 3 different copies of 4.0 from 3 different sites nl, se, fi
and 3 different copies of 3.4.

I usualy get something like
/stand/cpio: invalid header: checksum error
...
then some files
and

/stand/gunzip: : invalid block type
/stand/cpio: premature end of file

I will try to locate another machine and see if this works there.

thank you
niko

I want to install FreeBSD on a computer with only 8 MEG of RAM.  What
version can I use and how do I get it.

If you don't want to use profiled libraries, yes.  If you don't even
know what they are or what they're for, yes.  (They're only used for
debugging AFAIK, so no standard piece of FreeBSD needs them if you don't
use them to debug any software you write.)

Adaptec now offers a IDE RAID 5 controller and i just was wondering if
it works fine with freebsd and will it outperform a single big SCSI drive
( i mean speed, not capacity).

Hi!

I am trying to pick a hardware config for a server which must hosts
dozens of web server. It is going to be a commercial hosting and
i picked FreeBSD as OS because of many personal reasons:) Now
i must pick some x86 compat platform hardware.

What I am thinking about right now is : Asus P2B-LS motherboard,
Pentium III above 500, 512MB ram, 1 SCSI 10GB, 1 SCSI 30GB,
1 UDMA IDE AS BIG AS IT CAN BE for backup. The main problem
is the motherboard. I just don't see any alternative and that;s bad. I'd
like
to have a choice. It seems like the newer i820 bases motherboards from Asus
have SCSI contrller Ultra160 which is not supported by 3.4 ( i'd rather no
go with 4.0). But on the other hand BX is kind old now.

If you have some experience with hosting a lot of web servers, please, share
the hardware config with me.

Artem

I know that 3.2-RELEASE can be installed on an 8Meg computer.
I think both 3.4 and 4.0 requires more than 8 MB to install. Not sure about
3.3.

As for getting it you can either try to find some old 3.2 CDs ( if you have
a CD-ROM in that computer.) or try to find some ftp-site that still has it.
(Most (all?) sites seem to just have the latest releases (3.4/4.0))

Intel Ether Express Pro 10/100 (uses the fxp driver and has been touted by
many to be one of the better card/driver combinations available). By the
way, the ISP's support techs did not officially give me the DHCP info. It
was one of the guys that I know who does programming for them, mentioned in
casual conversation.

I grep:ed my source and actually found the string in syslogd.c. I haven't
pursued further, though. Funny I have not seen it before, methinks.

I thought I had directed all messages to the server. I'll dive into that on
Monday.

I think it would be a good idea to install 3.x FreeBSD useing 2 floppies downloaded from freebsd.org or using cvsup.

Dear Nikolas Nikou,

if you wish to make a CD containing a FreeBSD Release, you have to
(wait for it) "make release" in /usr/src/release. First and foremost,
you should download the sources (**cvs** tree: look at the examples in
/usr/share/examples/cvsup). Next, carefully read the
/usr/src/release/Makefile, set the appropriate variables and, in
particular, CVSROOT.

Caveat I
Your OS version should NOT be older than your target OS version: e.g.,
you should NOT make a 4.0-STABLE from a 3.4-STABLE.

Caveat II
You should NOT use parallelism (ie No -j option.)

Caveat III
You **must** download the crypto (cvs) sources if you want to make a
4.0-something: please have a look at the above-mentioned cvsup
examples. The crypto collections are an essential constituent of
FreeBSD 4.0-R and 4.0-S.



Also, you might want to have a look at the archives.
"make release" not only makes a -RELEASE, but also a -STABLE or
-CURRENT.

Once you are finished (and it is a *long* process), you can create an
image of /where/you/put/your_release/R/cdrom/disc1, specifying
"floppies/boot.flp" via the -b (bootable) option in mkisofs; you might
also want to specify other options for mkisofs (e.g., -R, -T.)
Finally, you can burn the image (e.g. via cdrecord.)

I have recently installed (yet) another FreeBSD 4.0-S slice from my
own CD; I had put in .../R/cdrom/disc1 a lot of tarballs (no packages)
before creating my ISO image. Needless to say, everything worked like
charm.

HTH,
Salvo

Hi

I've just upgraded my system from 3.4 to 4.0 using
the Walnut Creek CD-ROM.

On bootup I'm getting an error message
saying

"Bad sector table not supported".

The drives do have some bad sectors so I ran had 3.4
run a bad sector scan when recently setting the drives
up in with Vinum and were working fine.

The drives are some old seagate SCSI's off an NCR 865 based
controller.

Thankx

The funny part is that an el-cheapo ISA NE2000 card is all you would
need for a DSL connection. When I had my DSL, the downstream was 1Mbs,
while an ne2k allows for 10Mbs. My advice is to buy one of those with
drivers and documentation, and you will get it working in no time.

If you want to get something better, Intel EtherExpress 100+ is
reportedly one of the best cards on the market. D-Link DFE-530TX (not
TX+) is also a good deal for a 100Mbps. It uses via-rhine chip and is
*very* cheap.

But, again, for what you doing really any working card would
do. RealTek 8139 - chip based cards are very cheap, and are a
no-brainer to configure, since they are PCI cards.

Check the manpages for fxp, vr, and rl. ;^)

Hey guys. I'm in the middle of an article on FreeBSD and I'm trying to
find some more detailed information on FreeBSD's SMP implementation. How
it works, how it performs, how it handles the second processor, etc,
etc. Also how it performs in comparison to say, Linux SMP.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

thanks

[Using FBSD 2.2.7, I think]

I feel this is taking me into unchartered waters....

I gather that I might have to set up ipfw, then natd. I think the reply
at the bottom also indicates an upgrade of ppp.....isn't life fun!

OK (draws breath), I'm about to embark on setting up ipfw, and I've
never rebuilt the kernal before. I want to do a series of small steps
which leave the machine running at each step. A few quick questions....

1. If I enable ipfw in the kernal, but don't set ipfw_enabled in rc.conf,
will my system still work as is, or do I have to go the whole hog?

2. Am I correct in assuming that in rc.firewall, my external interface
is tun0 when using ppp?

3. In rc.firewall, my external IP is going to be a dynamic address. Now I
currently
use userland ppp to connect. Can I enable the firewall after connecting with
PPP or
should I use kernal based ppp? In other words how do I get rc.firewall to be
configured
on a dynamic IP?

4. Any hints/tips beyond that of the manuals?

Appologies if these are silly questions!

Any help pointers appreciated...

Many Thanks
Ian Hunter

What's the deal with make.conf in 4.0-S? I see that there is now
make.conf in /etc/defaults. Is the philosophy the same as with
rc.conf? Keep /etc/defaults/make.conf untouched and put overrides into
/etc/make.conf?

Or can I "rm /etc/make.conf" now?

Thanks!

Well, I have a FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE system running and today I read the section
in the FreeBSD handbook about the ports system. Although I have been using it
for quite a while, today was the first time I really started having an indepth
look of what I can do with it besindes simply going to the appropriate
directories and saying "make install".

In the "Compiling Ports Froth The Internet" section the handbook says how I can
get my system to install updated software that was released after 3.4-RELEASE
was released. In order to get that working, I first downloaded the update-kit
for my system. I added it with pkg_add 34update.tgz (was that correct?).

Then I though I'd try the following: I went to a FreeBSD FTP-Server, got the
tarred directory siag, deleted my original /usr/ports/math/siag directory and
untarred the newly downloaded directory into /usr/ports/math. So far so good.
Then I cd'ed into siag and said make. I was waiting to see what was about to
happen now, and it was not what I expected. As it tried to fetch the
siag-tarball, I got the message:

.tar.gz not found (on the FTP-server from where it wanted to download it.)

Note that it really said the above, it didn't say .tar.gz not found,
it simply said .tar.gz not found, without a filename. The same thing happens
with what ever other port I try to install using the procedure described above.
So, after all, it seems that I'm doing something wrong. I hope that someone
else can give me a general hint on how to solve the problem... I'm really
confused now ;-)

Greetings,
Nils

Hi,

Since mount_mfs is simulating a hard drive in memory, what are the
optimal (or close to optimal) settings for such a virtual hard drive
in terms of the number of cylinders, the number of sectors per
cylinder, the number of revolutions per minute, and similar
parameters.

Can someone please give me an example of a complete line to put in
/etc/fstab?

My mfs line in /etc/fstab is currently:

/dev/da0s1b /tmp mfs rw,nodev,nosuid,async 0 0


Please cc me since I am not subscribed to this list.

TIA,
Trond.

I have been a bash addict for many years.  This is one of two bad habits I
still have not broken from my days as a Linux admin (please don't tell
anyone!).  The other is 'less.'

However, I have recently noticed that FreeBSD's sh does nearly everything
I need except for one thing.  My bash prompt is set to "\u@\h:\w\$ " and
typically my prompt is then shown as "howardjp@byzantine:~$ ".  Is there
anyway to get something similar from sh?  

Thanks, J~

Can anyone offer any advice as to how to install a HP Sure Store Dat tape 
drive, on a box running freeBSD 4.0.  And any pointers on how to use it to 
backup my system would be greatly appreciated.  Thanx in advance.

History: one week ago I cvsupped 4.0 sources
and proceeded as in UPDATING - make buildworld,
make install in /sbin/mknod and /sys/modules,
make buildkernel and make installkernel. Then,
I tested kernel and it failed with my 3C509B.
While trying to resolve this issue, I resupped
and tried to buldworld again... no go... It bombed
out with Follwing error in libperl:

Well... I cleaned /usr/obj. Same error. I resupped, made cleandir
twice in /usr/src, cleaned /usr/obj. Same error.

I searched archives and decided to follow the most radical advice:
I deleted /usr/src and /usr/obj and cvsupped sources again
this morning (9 a.m. MSK) from cvsup7.freebsd.org and crypto
from cvsup.de.freebsd.org. And 10 minutes ago buildworld
failed with absolutely the same error.

Can anybody help?

TIA,
Igor

I have two HD: one supports DMA, the other doesn't. When I was running
3.4, I used to selectively turn on such features for each drive with
flags. Now it seems like there is only "options ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_IDE",
which is global.

How would I work around that?

,----[ Currently I have ]
| device          ata0    at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14 
| device          ata1    at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15 
| device          ata 
| device          atadisk
| options         ATA_STATIC_ID           #Static device numbering
| options         ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_DMA
`----
,----[ I used to have ]
| controller      wdc0    at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0x90ff90ff 
| disk            wd0     at wdc0 drive 0 
| controller      wdc1    at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 flags 0xb0ffb0ff 
| disk            wd2     at wdc1 drive 0
`----

It seems like both drives are initialized in DMA mode:
,----[ dmesg ]
| ad0: 2014MB  [4092/16/63] at ata0-master using WDMA2
| ad2: 18366MB  [37317/16/63] at ata1-master using WDMA2
`----

I know for sure that ad0 does not support DMA, and has a habbit of
slowing down considerably if used with DMA (I remember from the time
when I experimented with different flags for the `wdc' driver).

Thanks for any insight!

I had one for a couple of weeks and ended up taking it back. It simple
would not work at all. Through proxy even some FreeBSD driver programmers
had worked on the driver to see if it could get going. All to no end.
Unless 4.0 has support for this I don't see you getting much done with it.

Try logging in to the ftp server as a normal user.  Many times it is setup to
not allow root or equivelent access.

Hello.
I was just curious if anyone has gotten an IBM model 8361 series 100 Network
station running with FreeBSD? Or any other network computer. It sounds like
this one need special software running on the server side, but what I want
is like an xterminal. Something like this possible with this hardware?
Any help would be awesome. =)

I reinvoked sendmail using the -O QueueDirectory=
option and then it worked fine. I was using a physical
directory before named /var/spool/mqueue -- I had
deleted the symlink after it found out it wasn't
working. The physical directory and the symlink now
both work fine. I reinvoked once with QueueDirectory
and then again without, and it works.

Many thanks,
Dan

Gulp...

I just installed the package linux_devel-0.2.  I looked at the
pkg/PLIST and saw hundreds of binaries that look like system
files already installed.

Did I just screw myself?  Can I run pkg_delete?  What did I
do?  The package description says, 

  "This is a binary port of the Linux development environment.  
  It unpacks unpacks actual Linux binaries which run under 
  the binary emulation."

Which is incredibly vague if this package replaced critical
system files.

Not sure about the IBM station, I've tried a few different variations of
xterminals over the years, and come to the same conclusion; don't
bother. It's less costly, and offers better performance to just use a
bunch of cheap(er) P.C.'s. You can use small (486 class) diskless
workstations to accomplish the same task.

try using a different user, root and operator are by default not allowed
FTP access on a FreeBSD box. Assuming you're using the stock ftpd, you
can override this, (at the expense of security...BIG expense I might
add), by removing the username operator/root from /etc/ftpusers

Everything would probably get installed in subdirectories of
/compat/linux .  It wouldn't overwrite your system stuff.

Hi,

I tried to setup one of my FreeBSD as a router. Therefore, I need an 
additional NIC to make my FreeBSD to be a multi-homed host. However, I have 
a question about it. Usually we use crossover UTP to connect hubs and 
routers. If I just buy a regular NIC and add in my computer to make it as a 
router, then the UTP cable which connect to this multi-homed computer 
(suppose to be a router) and hub is still straight.
Is that correct?

Or I miss some part to achieve my plan? for example,
1. maybe I need different kind of NIC to make a host like a router?
2. maybe it's a stupid and crazy idea to make a computer to be a router?

Thanks for any suggestion.


Lei

It's impossible to tell, but I would expect that, being another product 
of Adaptec's RAID division, documentation is going to be impossible to 
obtain, and thus there will be no driver support.

If anyone has any more data, I'd love to hear about it, but right now I'm 
not very optomistic.

Hi,
   I was doing a test run on my PC with the FreeBSD
software, and now when I reload Windows98, it would
not free up the entire hard disk and only allows me to
400+MB of the total 2G space. I have tried formatting
and it would not work. Please help, and more details
on how can get in tune with your software.

I do not know Adaptec one, but I know 3ware has something similar.
We asked them for an evaluation board (retail is about $270) and come with 
linux driver source. It works quite well under linux. It can be configured
as 2x2 stripe, 1x4 stripe (RAID1), and mirror (RAID0). The 2x2 stripe can
have 32MBps I/O rate which is not bad at all.
Four 45GB WDC IDE drives are $1000, plus a $270 IDE controller, you can
get total 180GB with 32MBps I/O at $1300 which is half price of the same
configuration for SCSI.

The driver code is about 16K, but requires many linux header files.
I do not have time to poke Linux syuff at this moment. If some one is
interested in it, driver source can be download from www.3ware.com.

	-Jin

Why not?

Use the port - it's easy.  If it doesn't work for you, you need
to cut and paste the error messages you get before we can help
you.

How can I get my UNIX box to print to either directly to the print server on
the hp or through the NT server running LPD and LPR?  I have been trying to
get this to work for some time now and do not even come close to it.  I just
dont get it I guess.  Please help thanks.

I have one in the lab, and am working on a driver.  It's next in the 
queue behind the ICP Vortex cards at the moment.

You could just install the Bourne Again Shell from the Ports collection,
although i'd personaly just use TCSH (i used BASH for a while, but i
find it alittle sloppy to configure in .bashrc and stuff, although
EXPORT is a do-all command)

/etc/make.conf is your local settings that override
/etc/defaults/make.conf.  You should never edit /etc/defaults/*;
just copy the lines you want to change into /etc/* and then edit
those.

That way if you update your system, your local changes don't get
wiped out and it's easier to manage.

Hello

I have recently installed the Ice Window Manager from the ports
collection.  However, it's not finding all of the icons that it should. 
It's finding icons in the icewm/lib/icons directory, but not the ones in
lib/ledclock, lib/taskbar, or lib/icewm directories.  I did put all of
these directories in IconPath in the preferences file.  I also added a
LibPath line to the preferences file (the documentation makes reference to
this line, but this line did not appear in the original preferences file.)
 Still nada.

Has anyone run into this problem?

If your goal is raw speed of disk I/O (not size), then don't overlook
fast wide SCSI-2

Here is a snippet from dmesg. SCSI at 80 MBps using the standard ahc0
driver.

da0:  Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da0: 80.000MB/s transfers (40.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing
      Enabled


Not IDE, or RAID, but fast and supported now.

Get a dual if you can. The SMP code works very well, and you'll be 
happy you did when the server starts getting busy (especially with DB 
lookups if you do them).

I wouldn't be afriad of 4.0. The FreeBSD development team kicks butt, 
and they've had quite a while to work the bugs out. Is it bug free? 
No. For my purposes, 4.0-S appears to be as bug free as 3.4-S.

Just my 2 cents...

Your systems aren't all that similar.  The Latitude CP and the Inspiron
3000 actually have little in common beyond the Dell label.  They were
neither designed nor built by the same company.

Your jetdirect config should look like this:

   ===JetDirect Telnet Configuration===
        Firmware Rev.   : G.08.04
        MAC Address     : 00:10:83:5b:ea:69
        Config By       : DHCP 

        IP Address      : x.x.x.x
        Subnet Mask     : x.x.x.x
        Default Gateway : x.x.x.x
        Syslog Server   : x.x.x.x
        Idle Timeout    : 90 Seconds
        Set Cmnty Name  : Not Specified
        Host Name       : foo.domain.com

        DHCP Config     : Enabled 
        Passwd          : Enabled 
        IPX/SPX         : Disabled 
        DLC/LLC         : Enabled 
        Ethertalk       : Enabled 
        Banner page     : Disabled 

And your printcap should look like this :

hp|hp1100|hp4050tn:\
        :sh:\
        :lp=:\
        :rm=foo.domain.com:\
        :rp=lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/hp4050tn:\
        :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
        :if=/usr/local/libexec/psif:\
        :mx#0:\
        :rs:

The /usr/local/libexec/psif is a shell script like this:

--START--
#!/bin/sh
#

read first_line
first_two_chars=`expr "$first_line" : '\(..\)'`
if [ "$first_two_chars" = "%!" ]; then
        echo "$first_line" && cat && printf "\004" && exit 0
        exit 2
else
        ( echo "$first_line"; cat ) | /usr/local/bin/a2ps --quiet --portrait -1  --no-header --output=- --sides=duplex && printf "\004" && exit 0
        exit 2
fi
---END---

You will need a2ps (/usr/ports/print/a2ps-letter) installed to make this
work.

Subject: natd/ipfw and outgoing restrictions

I have done my best to see if this has been asked/answered before.

If have a vanilla natd/ipfw setup where I'm hiding a lan using
private ip's and using a freebsd server running natd as a gateway
to the net for the lan.

I wish to restrict outgoing traffic to only allow certain hosts
to surf and what not.

my firewall is set to "open" and the rules end up looking like this:

00100 divert 8668 ip from any to any via xl0
00100 allow ip from any to any via lo0
00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8
65000 allow ip from any to any
65535 deny ip from any to any

First quesiton is do I put my restricting rules before the divert?

something like 00050 allow tcp from 192.168.0.10/32 to any 80

I'm thinking if I want to allow "joe" to surf I allow
tcp to port 80 from joe's ip, but his ip is private.

I understand (maybe incorrectly) that nat reinjects the packet
at rule 200 in this example but it is now sourced with the public IP.

Second how do you know what interfaces and directions the rules are bound to?
As it practically set itself up and worked on the first try, I don't know
exactly what is going on.

Is there any examples of setups like I want to do, or a better way to
do it. Is there some other "proxy" daemon that might work better for me?

Do a "man ata" and in the middle is a section on the sysctl options
that you can use to set ad0 to PCI. You now have a /etc/sysctl.conf
for saving options such as this one.

	Attached are the .profile and .shrc files I submitted to -hackers
(or -current, I don't remember) as candidates for inclusion in the
base. They were created out of a combination of what's already there, and
some things of my own. After much discussion nothing happened with them,
but I still think they are pretty good. :) I use them myself now.

	BTW, there is nothing wrong with using bash, it's been my primary
shell for 7 years. I use /bin/sh as my login shell for both root and my
unprivileged user, and I have the following as the very first line in my
.profile:

[ -x /usr/local/bin/bash ] &&
        exec /usr/local/bin/bash --rcfile $HOME/.bash_profile

Works like a charm.

	yes, that is precisely correct.

	If you notice, at this time there isn't anything in
/etc/defaults/make.conf that is uncommented. So if you want to specify a
setting, do it in /etc/make.conf.

	I have a technical support question and need help.

	I installed FreeBSD on 2 old Pentium based PCs about four months ago
to run applications.  Now we were given 2 new Pentium II machines to replace
the old ones.  I installed FreeBSD on the new PCs.  As with the original
Pentium PCs, I had to build new kernels on the new Pentium II machines to
add support for a second network card in each machine.  This was simple
enough to do.  All that was needed was to add a line to the kernel.

	The applications that I was using on the old Pentiums were sent by
ftp to the new machines.  Logged in as root, the owner and group properties
were changed to root and wheel, respectively.  The execute permissions were
added to the owner of the applications, which is root.  (This is the same
setup as the applications on the old Pentium PCs.)  Now, I cannot run any of
my imported applications on both of the new PCs. 
	For example, if I try to run an installation called
"install-mkchart", 
the response given is "install-mkchart: command not found" .
	This does not make sense because, as root, I am in the same
directory when trying to run the script.  I can run the programs from the
old machines without any problems.

	Is there any other configuration that should be checked in order to
run my applications on the newly installed PCs?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

The Adaptec Ultra160 controllers are only supported in 4.0 (and -current).

You can probably use a Symbios/LSI Ultra160 controller with 3.4 if you
download Gerard Roudier's sym driver from here:

ftp://ftp.tux.org/tux/roudier/drivers/freebsd

If you've got questions about that driver, send mail to
groudier@FreeBSD.ORG.

This relates to the installation of FreeBSD on a Multia.

I am getting a recurring error when trying to run the install from the boot
floppies.  I have tried several disks, so I know they are good.  I suspect
that the floppy drive itself may be bad.  The error I'm getting follows:

*** Soft Error - Error #10 - FDC: Data overrun or underrun

Diagnostic Name		ID	Device	Pass	Test	Hard/Soft	20-APR-2020
boot			00000020    err_iob	   0     0     0   22      14:55:24

*** End of Error ***

This repeats several times then asks for the mfs disk.  The same error
repeats during the read of the mfs disk and then I get dumped back out at
the prompt.  Am I correct that it should begin the installation there or am
I supposed to type something here to start the install?

Thanks,

Dave

I have a Linux program (no source) that uses RPC. I entered the
following into /etc/rpc:

bminrd		630474513

I updated my NIS maps and verified that the new info was available
to all hosts.  I started the bminrd process on all the hosts but
communication is not working as evidenced by the following
'rpcinfo -t node6 bminrd' command:

rpcinfo: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer

program 630474513 version 0 is not available

Where do I proceed from here? Can Linux RPC programs work under
FreeBSD. I am using FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE with linux_base-6.1.

Thanks in advance.

Problem system is an IBM ThinkPad 310ED, Yamaha OPL-SAx audio card.
Simply "device pcm" in the kernel config, everything else works
wonderfully.  CD audio, however, does not work at all.  When I play a CD,
the music can be heard very faintly, at a level roughly corresponding to
the signal caused my mutual inductance between the CD-ROM's amp and the
audio out.

My cdrom devices are as such:
crwxr-xr-x  1 root  operator  117,   0 Apr 16 15:36 acd0a
crwxr-xr-x  1 root  operator  117,   2 Apr 16 15:36 acd0c

How can I fix this?

Soft errors are normal for a Multia ( at least for mine). Do you have the latest
firmware? I couldn't get mine to boot until I upgraded to the latest firmware.

Try mixer(8) or one of the mixer programs in the ports--aumix, cam,
gmixer, wmmixer, xmix, xmixer, or xmmix.

Kent, thanks a lot! This did it.

This makes me wonder, though... Since sysctl.conf is only read when
system goes multiuser, suppose somebody had a device that would hang
the system if accessed in DMA mode. sysctl solution would now work in
that case.

I still think that it would be nicer to have an option in kernel
config, so that the drive is accessed in the correct mode from the
very start.

CD audio appears in the mixer and is set to 85% volume.  I guess I should
have mentioned that in the first place :}

Hey,

Can anyone clue me into why authorization seems to be busted using xdm?
This was after a 3.3 to 4.0 release upgrade.  XF86 was upgraded from 335 to
336.

xdm seems to correctly generate the authorization files, but when it spawns
clients for xrdb and to generate a console window, these clients cannot
connect to the server.

Following is relevant debug from xdm-errors.

Please copy me on replies.  TIA

For example, my "h" drive is the first logical partition of my drive
1. It is an ntfs file system. I do a "mount_ntfs /dev/ad1s5 /mnt". I
mount my "C" drive using "mount_msdos /dev/ad0s1 /mnt". There are a
lot of options listed on the bottom of "man mount"

I have recently had similar problem with authentication in IMAP after
upgrade from sources to 4.0. When I was doing research in Dejanews, it
appears that xdm was affected by exactly the same problem with
incompatibility of pam libraries.

It appears that the solution would be to recompile the program against
new libraries. It sure worked for me with IMAP, and according to
several posts I have read about xdm, recompiling xdm might help.

I don't speak spanish either, but I did understand what was written in
that e-mail. How about me writing in Romanian? Would I get that : "No,
that's ridiculous..." in my inbox? Seems unfair. I'm sure the spanish guy
understood the reply.

You have to have "device sa" in your kernel and then /dev/sa0 is your
tape drive. You use /dev/rsa0 to rewind and /dev/nrsa0 for no rewind.

Hello,

Hmmm... What other languages do? I have done my work - I have working
keymap, font and patches for INDEX.fonts and INDEX.keymaps. Who can add this
to the next FreeBSD release?

Help me,

Yes, a straight cable is what you need, unless you're connecting the NIC
directly to another NIC.

No.

Not at all.  I have a FreeBSD router right here, admittedly it's only
routing between one NIC and the modem but it's still a router... the
principle is the same.

You can't just add the second network card and have it work straight
away, you need to explicitly enable packet forwarding first.  This
is simple on FreeBSD though.  Just set gateway_enable="YES" in
/etc/rc.conf and either use the Windows way (reboot) or the Right
way (run the appropriate commands yourself, in this case 'sysctl -w
net.inet.ip.forwarding=1', as root).

Hi:
I am running 4.0-RELEASE and I mount my msdos partition (Windows 98 SE) with 
the following in /etc/fstab:
	/dev/ad0s1	/msdos	msdos	rw,longnames	0     0

I then have access to the msdos partition: the KDE filemanager can move 
through the directories and the KDE editor can open and edit files.

When click on File->Open in StarOffice, however, it does not display all of 
the files and directories (for example, the MyDocuments folder is not 
displayed) and when I bring up a MS Word file (which happens to be under the 
MyDocuments folder), it is read-only.

Has anyone had problems like this?  Does anyone know why StarOffice is 
acting like this?

Thanks for any help.

John

I am trying to track down an RPC problem and so set "portmap_flags=-v"
in /etc/rc.conf. However I could not boot because I kept getting
"proc: table full" messages.

This makes debugging more of a challenge.

I have two satelite offices connecting in via Frame PVC's to my FreeBSD
3.4 box (via Emerging Technology Serial Interface). I need to forward DHCP
messages between those W9X machines and a DHCP Server in the main
office.

My assumption is that bootpgw must be running here and at the two offices
(also using FreeBSD for those gateways), is this correct?

Also, when I run "/usr/libexec/bootpgw nt_server" at the main office I get
the message "Can not find my IP address". I haven't tried it on the
other machines yet.

Here is the ifconfig output:

ax0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I have a great many questions about firewalling, by ipfw.
Far too many to ask.

I have one working, but am often forced to punch holes
in it to ger FTP clients working, ping (ICMP), etc.

Where can I find writings on how build a USEFULL
firewall from FreeBSD?
I'm having a hard time setting it up to allow what I want
to allow through, nothing more, nothing less.
Does the o'riley book cover examples pertinent to FreeBSD?
Does anybody have a FBSD firewall DESIGN FAQ or www site?
I know the iusage of the ipfw command, I just run into problems
with things like ftp servers trying to make data sockets back
to my network... is there a way to allow them in for that?
It will only get harder when I get NAT running...

The most likely reason that you're having that FTP problem is because
you are not using PASV mode. Set your ftp client to use PASV mode
and all will be well.

Is it possible to have a vinum mirrored volume as the root partition on
a 4.0-STABLE machine?  I browsed the man pages and list archives which
seemed to suggest support would be added later but no confirmation of
whether it was in or how to implement it.
If not, anyone have suggestions on the best way to get fault tolerance
in the case that the drive with the root partition goes down.

Thanks,

I administer a number of remote machines, all of which are  
accessible by 'non experts'.

I use this schema: 2 identical disks, with 3 partitions each: /,  
/usr and /home. The /home partition is a vinum partition. The / and  
/usr partitions I copy over 'manually' (using pax, which is quite  
fast) whenever a change is made to them.

If the primary drive goes down, the 'remote people' just need to  
swap the drives, (I mount them in mobile racks), if the secondary  
drive goes down there is no downtime at all.

One BIG advantage of this setup: I can run remote 'make  
buildworld/installworld' sessions, and if something goes wrong, I can  
just have the 'remote' people swap the drives and start over.

Not a perfect solution for everyone, but works great for me.

Gerd

Does FreeBSD support the Efficient SpeedStream 3060
(PCI Internal) modem?
Here is some information on it:
http://www.efficient.com/products/internal/3060.html

If it doesn't support that, does it support the
Efficient SpeedStream 4060 (USB External) modem?
Here is some information on it:
http://www.efficient.com/products/usb/4060.html

If both are supported, which one is a better product to use?

The last time I asked Greg about this, he confirmed that vinum is not
currently capable of this and that it was in the plans for the future.
Unfortunately, there was some disagreement between Greg and one of the
other FBSD folks recently which seemed to greatly demotivate Greg, so
I don't know how much development we'll see on vinum in the near future :(

dB!

Hmm, my /drvc (msdosfs mount-point) has 777 perms and is owned by a
normal user and is writeble by everyone:

[snip]

Maybe the group ownership, and those users needing to write to it must
be in the wheel group as well??

	I have a 3.4 STABLE laptop. I believe the version of sendmail that is
	on it is the one that came with 3.4

	This machine autocinfigures to vaariosu networks. The primary two are
	at home, and at work. In both cases the networks are protecetd from the
	internet by firewalls.

	At work I have some Sum machines that I wish to be able to mail
	directly to my laptop. At home it should never recieve mail.

	I hacke the sendmail.cf files on the Sun's and coerced them inot
	sending mail to my machine. However I did not get that end of it quite
	correct, so the mail comes as user_name#hostname (without the domain
	portion). My machine rejects this out of hand. here is what I am geting
	in the logfile:

	Apr 20 16:20:29 brown sendmail[11779]: QAA11779: ruleset=check_mail,
	arg1=, relay=waterap [170.85.113.45], reject=501 ...

	What can I change in the FreeBSD machine's sendmail.cf to make it more
	tolerant of this?

	Thanks.

Hello,
Does anyone have a parallel zip250 ? If yes, can you
tell me how to install it ?
AFAIK, the VPO driver still using the old Iomega
zip100 spec, and the new zip250 use a different
interface. The linux got a driver called
imm-something. Could anyone help me ?

Add this to your .mc file and generate a new sendmail.cf

FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains') 

and possibly

FEATURE(`accept_unqualified_senders') 

Do Not do this if you are accepting mail directly from the Internet.

Did you use fdisk to format your BSD partitions.

I believe the option is 4 to delted non dos partitions.

That must have been a while ago.  I have the code ready to commit, but
we need to change some other minor stuff first.

Subject: System crash in reading floppy  for 3.1!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

I have a compaq persario with AMD (K6-2, 475 MHz) running
FreeBSD 3.1.
I have one particular floppy (dos formatted) that crashes
the system when I was trying to read it.

I could mount the floppy (using mount_msdos /dev/fd0a).

I can read the directory ok.

The problem starts when I try to read any file from that.
The file could be read. But after that, the system console
keeps printing the following message:

fd0c: hard error writing fsbn 19 (ST0 40 ST1
2 ST2 0 cyl 0 hd 1 sec 2)



I didn't try to write on the floppy and it was "write
protected". And no problem occurs  if I make the floppy
"writable". And I could see that the system is accessing the
floppy drive from time to time.
And if I check the files, there is no change in the
timestamp of the files in the floppy.

The system finally crashes after printing that message
several times on console.
Just for information, floopy was a quick-restore floppy for
windows 98.
But this thing only happens for that particular floppy.
I have another floppy with the identical set of files
(apparently, the sizes and the contents of the files are
same on both the floppies).

Any idea for this weird system crash?
Thanks,

I think you misunderstood *my* reply.  What is ridiculous is telling
someone they should only speak English.  I think that's rather
elitist.  Imagine, if you will, the amount of English language a
non-English speaking person must plow through in order to get any help
with FreeBSD.  I think the English speakers among us ought to be able to
bear with some Spanish or Romanian messages now and then.

Hi all,

I've spent countless hours troubleshooting my network, but couldn't get to
work so I'm asking for any help I can get.  I have a small network setup and
I'm using ipnat.rules and ipf.rules (from OpenBSD) for ip filtering on my
FreeBSD gateway/firewall machine.  Here's the sittuation:
I have two network cards installed on my firewall machine; of the two cards,
one entails an external ip address (dco has a cable modem static ip address
given by ATHOME) and the other entails a private ip address (dc1:
192.168.1.1).  

On a separate machine is my DNS server, which includes one network card with
a private IP address (192.168.1.2).  

I have eight computers connected on a 3Com switch.

So here's the question: 
What are some of the commands/things that I (can) need to use to
troubleshoot my network?  I've used the following the files to config:

/etc/rc.conf
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/hosts 

Here is what I did to set up my network:
(1) /stand/sysinstall => index => interfaces => no for multi-user => no dhcp
=> dc0 => dc1
(2) add primary and secondary addresses to resolv.conf file
(3) edit the "/etc/hosts" file

For my gateway/firewall server, I used "ifconfig -a" and it showed that all
network devices have the correct ip address.  However, when i used "netstat
-rn", 192.168.1.1 has a "netif" of lo0, while 192.168.1.2 has a "netif" of
dc1?  I was expecting 192.168.1.1 to have dc1...

I can ping from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.1 and vice-versa (also work when
pinging with any address on the network).  However, I can't ping to the
outside world (i.e. cnet.com or yahoo.com).  I've checked my
"etc/resolv.conf" file and it contains the correct dns address.  

I am thinking that there has to be a problem with my ipnat.rules or
ipf.rules, but not really sure.  

Anyway, i'm having trouble connecting back to the Internet.  I appreciate
any feedback or insights anyone can give.  Sorry if I did not do a good job
explaining my problem.

Thanks everyone for all your help.  I went into LINT and made a list of
all supported cards.  Then I took it to the local used PC store and found
one that was on the list.  I ended up with a 3com 3c900 PCI card.  That
made all the difference in the world, I'm happy to say.  I just downloaded
RealPlayer7 in just over two minutes!

    Hi,

     I recently installed FreeBSD 3.4 on a NEC 2400CD laptop and
everything works great except the modem.  I made sure that PCMCIA
support was enabled and that /etc/ppp.conf was pointing to the correct
device but no matter what I try, I can't seem to get this modem to
work.  It used to work when I had WIN95 on this machine.
    I also get the following message at boot up:

starting standard daemons: inetdApr 20 18:45:23 pccardd[60]: no card in
database for "Hayes" "("OPTIMA 288 + FAX for PCMCIA")

    The modem I have is a Hayes OPTIMA 288 V.34 +FAX for PCMCIA.  I've
been struggling with this one, on and off for two weeks and would
appreciate any help.  Thanks.  Joe

It seems that addresses such as 10.3.8.60 point to machines on the @home
network in the York Mills area (my district). Is this traffic caused by a
machine at my server's end in which case the provider is the cause, or is
this traffic from another machine on my subnet? I am at a loss. Whatever
the cause, is there any way I can configure the system to filter them?

Thanks again,
Frederick S.

Well, since you don't say what the problem was, this statement isn't
very useful.

Yes. The key is to define a function cd() that, when called, also
sets PS1 in addition to performing the actual "cd". (This approach
can also be used for the Korn shell.)

I have adapted the following snippet for $ENV without testing:

PROMPT="$(whoami)@$(hostname -s):"
cd()
{
    command cd "$@"
    case ${PWD} in
        "${HOME}"*) PS1="${PROMPT}~${PWD#${HOME}}\$ " ;;
        *)          PS1="${PROMPT}${PWD}\$ " ;;
    esac
}
cd "${PWD}"     # initialize prompt

Did you remember to put the directory where you installed the scripts
in your path?  The current dir is not normally in the path so you
could also do:

  ./install-mkchart

Hi, I have installed RealPlayer 5.0 for Unix on my FreeBSD 3.4, but
I don`t know how to make Netscape 4.72 recognize it as a plugin.

It is working as an `application`, the same way it would work if
I started it by hand, but it is not beeing recognized as a plugin.

Any ideas as to why there is an executable, AND two java classes?

Thanks for any help,
Leonardo

PS: The sound is quite bad, but I think that is the way RealPlayer
    works in Unix. Or am I wrong?

We just recently put together a machine with the following:

SuperMicro P6DGU Dual Slot1 440BX Board with AIC-7890 SCSI
PentiumIII 600
512M of ECC RAM
DPT RAID Card
3 x 9.1G AtlasV SCA Drives
Seagate 12G DAT Drive
Intel Pro Server Ethernet Card
Elan Vital S30 Rackmount case with HotSwap Kit

It's a very nice box that will be doing mostly transactions. Because of
the RAID card I can only run FreeBSD 3.2 on it, but it's pretty sweet.

The only other problem is the Coppermine processors will not work in Dual
mode at this time.. regardless of the Slocket adapter you try.

BX may be kind of old now, but it works and there is lots of support for
it in the OS.

You could also look at Tyan motherboards. I've used them in a number of
different systems for different things. They make good stuff.

If you are looking for a fault tollerant solution, go with the RAID
setup.. it can really save your ass when it comes to downtime.

If you're talking about "The Complete FreeBSD", you can get it from
me.  You should be able to get the "Design and Implementation" from
Dymocks.

Trying to tar -x ip-fil3.3.12.tar and I get an error:

tar: can't open /dev/rsa0 : Device not configured

I looked in my /dev and found a rsa0

So how do I configure it?

Cheers

Why don't you use RealPlayer7 Beta for Linux?  That's what I'm using now
with my newly installed DSL connection, and the sound is about like good
FM radio quality.  Of course, over a dial up connection, it isn't that
good, but still better than version 5.0 I think.  Plus, the 5.0 version
doesn't work with many of the current formats.  
As for getting it to work as a plug in, I'm not sure what the difference
is between using it as a plug in and simply setting Netscape to use
RealPlayer as the default application for opening files with a particular
suffix, in this case ra, rm, and ram.  That's how I do it and it works
well.
Hope this helps,
Joseph

Since I upgraded from FreeBSD 2.2.8 to 3.4
Kerberos authentication  no longer works for some
commands, such as SU. It appears that a file called
pam_kerberosIV.so is required but is missing from
the installation. Note I am a non-US-resident in
case that has a bearing on this.

How can I obtain the required file?
Can I use Kerberos without it?

Any help with this would be appreciated.

Hello all,
I am interested in mirroring my hard-drives through ccd only I am not quite
sure how to go about it.  In particular I am wondering if this can be done
with a live system - changing everything including the root file-system over
to ccd partitions? (unlike creating fresh raw unused partitions).   Has anyone
ever done this?  If so I would love information on what you did.  I have two
identical HDDs and only one is being used so I think I am in a good position
to do this.

This is my first time attempting to install FreeBSD, so bear with me
please :-) After choosing which individual packages I would like to
install, it tries to install them and does install a few, but then I
noticed it hung with this box:

Adding packages/All/rsaref-2.0.tgz (as a dependency)
from acd0c

it hung there for a while and so I switched to the second virtual
terminal just to see what was going on...  On this screen, there is a
dialog that says:

Do you accept the terms of the RSAREF license agreement and wish to
proceed with the build?
Yes or No

It does not respond if I hit enter or try to put no.
Any ideas why it is doing this???

thanks,
Aaron

Why do you want to do that?

No.  You can't run the root off ccd at all.

Use Vinum instead.  In the not-too-distant future it will support the
root file system.  You'll still need to repartition the disks, though.

   Thank you very much for your suggestion. I got RealPlayer7 Beta
   for Linux and installed it. The installation process even told
   me that RealPlayer had been installed as a plug-in... but...

   ... I don`t know the difference, either, but when clicking on
   some links, Netscape complains that the plug-in has not been
   installed, and it opens a page to make the download.
   (for example, you could check http://www.senado.gov.br/ and
    click on ``Radio Senado``, in the center of the page)

  ... and if I click on other files, Netscape opens RealPlayer7

  Unfortunately, the sound is even worst than with RV5, I tried
  different setup options with no luck (perhaps lack of sleep :-)

  Thanks anyway,
  Leonardo

Dear Matt Heckaman,

These options ARE documented in detail.

From (wait for it) rc.conf(5):



   tcp_drop_synfin
                   (bool) Set to NO by default.  Setting to YES will
                   cause  the kernel to ignore TCP frames that have
                   both the SYN and FIN flags set. This prevents OS
                   fingerprinting, but may break some legitimate
                   applications. This option is only available
                   if the kernel was built with the TCP_DROP_SYNFIN
                   option.

   tcp_restrict_rst
                   (bool) Set to NO by default.  Setting to YES will
                   cause the kernel to refrain from emitting TCP RST
                   frames in response to invalid TCP packets (e.g.
                   frames destined for closed ports).  This option is
                   only available if the kernel was built with the
                   TCP_RESTRICT_RST option.



RTFM, RTFM, RTFM ... :-)

This is taken from the man pages on my 3.4-S.=20

The options are documented *where* one is supposed to have a look at=20
before putting hands on rc.conf :-O

However, you are quite right: this is NOT very visible and might=20
mislead people. An additional note in LINT and/or in=20
/etc/defaults/rc.conf should put things right.

I have yet to understand what difference (efficience ? Type and level=20
of action ?), if any, there is between these options and the ipfw=20
firewall rules performing analogous functions (ie deny [...] tcpflags=20
) ...

RTFM, RTFM, RTFM (myself, this time) :-)=20
=20
Best regards,
Salvo                                                                 =20

Argh, point recieved and understood. That, is a nasty habit of mine, I
don't RTFM on things that I believe I understand. I made the rather false
assumption that anything in /etc/defaults/rc.conf would not require any
special kernel modifications, even linux_enable loads the module for you.
I still believe it's worth documenting in defaults/rc.conf though, I can't
be the only one bitten by this confusing thing.

low level kernel and tcp/ip functions are far beyond my skill and

	There is a page written by a FreeBSD user of Sympatico using PPPoE
at the following:

http://sympaticousers.org/faq/freebsd_howto.htm

This page is mostly good, except for a couple of things:

1. As of 4.0-RELEASE, at least, NETGRAPH_.* options are no longer
necessary, as netgraph can load its own modules.

2. Either "ddial" or "auto" is a better ppp_mode than "background".
Same with the manual command line.

3. If you need -nat, add -nat to the command line

	Hope this helps!

	A question for PPPoE and Static IP ADSL users out there, does your
download speeds slow down to a crawl when you are uploading at the same
time as downloading?  Since atleast with PacBell ADSL, it seems that
if I am downloading only, I get between 170-200k/sec but when I upload,
the upload goes at 16k/sec and the download goes down to 30k/sec.  This is
on a 384k-1.5Mbps down/128k up ADSL.

No. 
Well, you might be able to get it to run but installing it would be a
PITA (if at all possible) and the speed at which it runs would 
probably be glacial at best.

While installing FBSD4.0 from subject CD set, and after getting to the
point where I wanted to add some packages from CDs 3 and 4, I received a
message from /stand/sysinstall that these two CDs were not FreeBSD CDs. 
I went ahead anyway and the packages I wanted from them apparently
installed OK.

Has anybody else seen such a message?  I haven't seen mention of it on
this list.  Is it anything to worry about?  I'm going to reinstall (just
for practice).  I'll see if it happens again.

Thanks,
Kevin

 I've made a little test.
 I took a bunch of files (~130 MB) and copied them from
 one filessystem to another. The HDD is IDE Quantum FB 10GB.
 While copying i run top and saw about 80% of cpu wasted on 
 interupts. 
 
 Then i anables 32bit access for the hdd and turned on DMA
 transfers. Repeated the test and saw only tiny 0.8% wasted on
 interupts, which is comparable to what SCSI takes. So, knowing
 that SCSI and IDE hdd are based on the same mechanical parts why
 should even use SCSI? Am I missing something?

Hello

I'm am having trouble with my logs.
I have tried various things like adding ' log_in_vain="YES" ' in rc.conf
(which i read from a post on the security list)

!ipfw
*.*		/var/log/ipfw

but the only information i am getting is stuff like :

00200		0	0	deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8
01400		20	1008	deny log tcp from any to any via ppp0 setup
65535		602	28986	deny ip from any to any

(from /var/log/ipfw.today) which by itself is useless for me.
I am trying to set it up so i can see the source address and ports so i at 
least
can see more of what's going on.

I have a custom kernel with the ipfirewall and divert for natd and am currently
running 3.2-release.
sorry for not giving more information but i am new to this and not sure 
what else
to put.

Any help is much appreciated
Thank you.

I have been seeing questions on this list regarding CD burning software
but can't seem to find any in the ports collection.  Is there any
software like this available from ports or do I have to go somewhere
else to get it - if so where.

Thanks

Simon

Whether this question is asked several times a week or not, my question
was if there is a solution. Splitting the first partition and the 
remedy you give is just the problem I was describing and was looking a
solution for.

Be it a BIOS issue or not, why shouldn't it be possible to
write a bootloader that does not use the BIOS. How does
the Windows NT loader do it? Is there the same restriction, that
NT has to have it's bootable partition in reach within 1024 cylinders?

if you have a scsi cd-r/rw, check out cdrecord, which is in the ports
collection under sysutils.
if you have an atapi cd-r/rw, and are using >=FreeBSD-4.0, man 8 burncd.
if you are using 3.x, read the stuff in /usr/share/examples/atapi.

Hello,

I've got an old 486 with phoenix BIOS dated 1992.  I
tried to install an new WD 17.4GB hard drive and set
the Master drive to auto-detect.  Upon boot the
BIOS tells me there's an error auto-detecting the
drive.

If I set drive0 to not installed and continue
with 4.0R installation, the probe finds the drive 
on ad0, and can read/write during an install.

It looks like my BIOS simply will not recognize
this HD.  Is there anyway around it?  Can I boot
off a "FreeBSD boot floppy" and then load the
kernel from the hard drive.  

I know the obvious question is why am I wasting
my time with this old box?  Well, it was free,
I got a great deal on two Western Digital HDs,
and this machine's only purpose in life is to
run FreeBSD and act as a hard-drive back-up
device.

Thanks for all the help.

This means: "extract a file named ip-fil3.3.12.tar from the default

Is this what you are actually trying to do?

Your kernel doesn't have support for SCSI tape drives compiled in or
you don't have such a device connected to you machine.

I have 2 questions about 4.0-RELEASE

I did not compile my kernel with the splash device because I did not want
a graphical screensaver or splash screen, I just want an ASCII
screensaver.  When the console was initialized during boot, the kernel
reported the error:
link_elf: symbol splash_register undefined
I have selected the daemon screensaver.  Is the splash device now required
for ASCII screensavers?

Is the new md0 (Malloc Disk) usefull to the average user for anything?
This doesn't mean that Malloc uses a filesystem, does it?

Ok then - is there an easy way to convert a live filesystem (minus root)
to vinum?  And is there any advantage to mirroring swap as well - or should
I just configure swap as an extra device on it's own until root support
is available? (since without root being mirrored we are only looking at read
performance benefits and not really increased system availablity).

I looked at Vinum before and kinda got lost in it - so a lay man's approach to
moving a system from single disk to mirrored would be appreciated.

You'll need to build support for it into the kernel, and possibly run
MAKEDEV again (just in case).

But, are you really trying to access the tape drive (which is
what the rsa0 device is) or are you trying to extract a file on a
filesystem called ip-fil3.3.12.tar?  If the latter, you want `tar -xf
ip-fil3.3.12.tar'.

No, not without wiping it, changing its size, and restoring from your
backup.  What you can do is move some stuff within /usr to another
partition.  Say your /usr/local is quite big and getting bigger, you
could put that on another disk mounted on /usr/local.

That was the problem... I wanted to extract the contents of the tar file and didn't understand the meaning for the f flag in the man page. Thanks for the reply.

I wrote a message similar to this one yesterday and I did not get an answer.
Most likely I didn't explain the problem enough for somebody to be able to help
me. Sorry. Here's the problem again, this time the question is more *general*.

Well, having known only Linux before I'm kind of amazed how the FreeBSD Ports
collection works. I really like it, as I like the FreeBSD system in General.

Now, one thing I don't seem to get working even after having read the FreeBSD
handbook is the following:

It says that in order to get updated ports runing on my system that were not
available when my version of FreeBSD was released (I have 3.4-RELEASE) I need
to download and install the appropriate upgrade kit. I did that, although I
don't have much of a clue what that was good for...

Now, I try the following, just as the FreeBSD handbook tells me.

cd /usr/ports/math
rm -r siag # Delete the old version of the SIAG-port dir
ftp ftp7.de.freebsd.de # I connect to the server and login to it
cd /pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports/math
get siag.tar # Getting the siag dir in tared form
bye # saying good-bye to the ftp-server
tar xf siag.tar # untar the downloaded siag dir into my /usr/ports/math dir
cd siag
make

Ok, now the system should go and fetch the appropriate file. But it doesn't. It
says something like that:

tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system
Attempting to fetch from ftp7.de.freebsd.org

Ok, it does now try to fetch a file called .tar.gz.  This cannot be successful
(and it is not) since it cannot get a .tar.gz file without a name.

Having inspected the Makefiles of the ports dirs that came with my sytsem, I
see that in these files there is a line that goes DISTNAME=something which is
not present in the Makefile of the port dirs I fetch from the FTP-server.

So, what's wrong? Won't I be able to get and use the ports from the FTP-server
on my 3.4-RELEASE system without some prior updates of my system? If so, please
tell me what I gotta do!

Thanks in advance,
Nils

I have placed sa0 into my kernel, and now when I go to use a command like 
"mt -f /dev/rsa0 fsf -1" I get an error that my device is not configured. I 
am sure that there is a simple step that I am missing, but I am missing it 
none the less.  If anyone has an opinion of what steps to take next, please 
share.  Thanx in advance.

FreeBSD has emulation for Linux-based GNU systems current to RedHat 6.1
from 4.0-RELEASE and up.  default compiler is GCC.  BASH shell is in the
ports.  we have KDE and GNOME.  Natice Netscape.  *BSD system code is
cleaner and written by people who are better than people developing for
Linux (atleast in my oppionion, but the code IS cleaner).  Cleaner code
usualy does run faster.

This is a fairly basic question, but I have tried my best to find the
answer on the web and in lehey's book and am coming up empty.  

How does one change the names assigned to the boot options in booteasy.
That is, right now it says something like
F1: ??
F2: FreeBSD

How do I get it to say "BeOS", for example, instead of "??" ?

FreeBSD probably does not "run faster". I just finished with some benchmarks
(4.0 RELASE vs. latest RED HAT on the same hardware) and they are not bad
but there is mostly some 10% loss on FreeBSD side. We tend in fact to do
things in more "logical/layered" way - i suppose thats the reason.
Not that it is at all noticeable from any user standpoint. And our code
is much cleaner:)

I think it is good only if You have old /usr/ports tree...
Anyway, personally I prefer to keep it updated wit cvsup,
see section about staying in sync in handbook. But that's
for Your future learning, let's look what You done...

Wrong, see below...

>get siag.tar # Getting the siag dir in tared form
>bye # saying good-bye to the ftp-server
>tar xf siag.tar # untar the downloaded siag dir into my /usr/ports/math dir

Here are some small hints:

1. Ports collection tree contains Makefiles for each application
to help user install apps mostly in automatic fashion. These Makefiles
are made to fetch, extract, patch, build, install apps from distfiles
which are originally not in Your tree. They are not Makefiles from
application source.

2. When You run make in the directory of port You need, it automatically:
- fetches corresponding archive (distfile) into /usr/ports/distfiles
- extracts source into /usr/ports///work/ directory
- runs corresponding patch, config, build, scripts
The last step uses /usr/ports///Makefile and
scripts and makefiles from port's source. Oh, and from /usr/ports/Mk/*.mk files,
look at bsd.port.mk for definitions of make's targets.

This is very simplistic picture, but a start. So, assuming You
want to at siag's souces, You go to /usr/ports/math/siag and run

# make patch

After some time You'll have /usr/ports/math/siag/work/
with patched souces and siag's distfile in /usr/ports/distfiles.

To build siag, just run

# make

After it builds, You run

# make install

And You have installed siag...

Hope this was helpful...

Read handbook, makefiles, maillists ;-))
Try, read again, ask questions 8-)
Enjoy...

You may need more fancy boot managers.  BTW, we use lilo to boot both
Linux and FreeBSD.

Hello,

Does anyone know of a good SPSS-like stats package for FBSD--or which runs
under linux eumulation? Have a favorite?

Thanks,

This may seem like a silly question, but I've been wondering about this
for quite some time.

When the kernel boots, when it gets to sd0, it says:

	sd0 on isa
	sd0: vaga color <16 virtual consoles, flags = 0x0>


But after the booting is finished, only Alt-F1 to Alt-F8 
work. And when I do

	ps -waux | grep tty

I can only see ttyv0 to ttyv7, apart from the console where I logged in.

So, question: where have the other 8 virtual consoles gone?

Which news reader from the ports would people recommend? I need one
that works well with mp3 newsgroups which regularly have >15,000,
mainly multi-part, messages.

The ability to select and d/l into a single file the multiple parts is
obviously a major requirement.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Are you using the Linux version of Netscape? AFAIK the RealPlayer
plugins don't work with the native FreeBSD Netscape. RP7 works for me
with Linux-netscape. Note also that rpnhelper needs to be in your
PATH. It lives in /usr/local/RealPlayer7 so either add that to $PATH
or, as I've done, symlink it from /usr/local/bin.

Is the HD UDMA/66 or /33? If it is, you will have to get
a controller because those old systems don't support UDMA.

That's probably why it isn't showing up in the BIOS.

Hi,

I managed to get it working by following the instructions in the
Handbook. Worked like a charm. Just remember to ifconfig up your ethernet
card.

If you need more help let me know.

Andrew.

They still exist, but since there are no gettys running on them, you
can't use them. Which terminals get which gettys is controlled in
/etc/ttys. You can always add more, but it's of course not such a
good idea to make more terminals than you have F-keys, cuz then you
can't reach them :)

Hi FreeBSD users!

Probably someone knew how to solve 
the next:

#startx
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libc.so.4" \
not found

 The system is 3.4-STABLE FreeBSD Mar 30 20:49:05 EEST 2000.

Thanks for help.

My file server crashed yesterday and I'm trying to prevent it from
happenning again. This is what I know so far.

Here's some output from dmesg:

Waiting 10 seconds for SCSI devices to settle
sa0 at ncr1 bus 0 target 6 lun 0
sa0:  Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device 
sa0: 20.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit)

That's all well and good, but right before the machine crashed (locked up)
I started getting some of these messages:

Furthermore, I have a perl script that fires up every night to run the
backup which may have attempted to write to this SCSI device.

Hello!

what we can do to get rid of these annoying messages?????
what do they mean? what is the impact of the cause of these messages?

Apr 21 20:39:41 gw /kernel: cy0: 1 more silo overflow (total 3)
Apr 21 20:39:41 gw /kernel: cy0: 1 more silo overflow (total 3)

Thanks in advance!

Also we continue to receive these ones:

Apr 21 15:35:28 gw ppp[2766]: Warning: iface_addr_Zap: ioctl(SIOCDIFADDR, 212.1.70.33): Can't assign requested address

We widely use user PPP program for dialup users, and the PPP processes are instructed
to use this address as an IP address from our side for all PPP incoming connections.
This address is not within any directly connected network, just hangs free in
the block of freely used addresses 32-63.

What can be the cause of this one?

We still use FreeBSD-2.2.8-STABLE

Thanks for any information.

I think that's sc0, but we know what you mean...

They should be present, but have no getty running on them.  You'll need
to enable them in /etc/ttys.  You may also need to MAKEDEV them -- use
'MAKEDEV vty16' to make 16 of them.  I'm not sure how you access the
ones beyond the 12th though with a keyboard which only has functions
keys up to F12.

libc.so.4 only exists in FreeBSD 4.0 and higher, so you will need to
upgrade to 4.0.

The advantages of SCSI are really noticable noticable when you have 
several disks attached to the same controller. 
With modern disks and controllers SCSI and IDE are just as good if you only 
have a single disk attached. (And IDE disks are usually much cheaper.)

	I've heard that parallel port conencted CD-ROM drives can be 
installed on FreeBSD. Where can i find information about this? (all 
i've found was Zip drive support).
	Is it possible to use one to install FreeBSD from CDs?

Well, now I have synchronized my system's sources using CVSup. I've also
"made world" and it wasn't at all as hard as I expected. BUT: I think I
have to update my ports-collection as well, since the ports collection of
my *old* system (before syncing sources and making world) obviously won't
compile. So I thought I'd get the whole /ports dir from an FTP-Server. I
would then rm -r my local ports dir and place the new one there. Is this
the *correct* way to do it? I think so, but I thought I'd better ask first
because I don't know if deleting my current ports dir in order to install
a new one will harm something (for example the database in which the ports
I have already built are installed).
I hope someone can tell me if what I'm planning to do is right, or ,if
not, how I should do it instead...

Thanks,
Nils

I'm having a few difficulties with some ip routing.  It's not something I do
a lot, here's my scenario. ;)

I have three interfaces, two of them are public ip's, one private.

fxp1 is my default route, web traffic goes in, dns, etc.
fxp0 is my private lan
ep0 is my 'other' public ip.

What I'd like to do is instead of ALL traffic going out fxp1, have my lan
traffic directed to go out ep0, ignoring the default route.  Ideas?  My idea
was to unload the local traffic off of the (t1) and place the internal
surfing and downloading on a seperate link.

I would appreciate any ideas or suggestions you guys might have.

Thanks,

It says Ultra ATA/66.  So that means I'll have to get a
new IDE controller for the box?  Any ideas how much a
controller costs and suggested eRetailers?

Appreciate your help!

Looks like you've downloaded a version of XFree86 built for FreeBSD 4,
when you only have FreeBSD 3.  Try to look for one built for FreeBSD 3,
or if that fails, compile it yourself from the ports/x11/XFree86 port.

You should be able to find a FreeBSD package of it, I forget the exact
URL but if you look around under 
for a ports/packages directory called something like "packages-3-stable"
you should be in the right place.

Hello all,

Basically how do youmake sure a IDE hard drive is set as UDMA? Is there a
Flag you need to add in the Kernal config? Is there a DOC explaining this?

Thanks all

It depends on which version of the system you are using. If you are
running <4.0, then you have to look at the flags in the /etc/LINT. I
ran with "flags 0xa0ffa0ff" on my kernel config until 4.0 came out. It
defaults to UDMA but you can turn that off with entries in your
/etc/sysctl.conf file. These are called out in "man ata".

I currently connect to the Internet with an ISDN router and Cable modem.
The ISDN router connects to my office which is an ISP where I get subnets
routed to me.  I have placed a FreeBSD box running natd on the Cable modem
and some machines route through the cable modem for fast web browsing, but
most machines have real IP addresses and the use the socks proxy on the
nat box for web browsing.

I want to switch my access entirely to cable modem and have my subnets
routed to me over a VPN.  I was hoping to do this with FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE
using the gif interface.  The problem is that bot ends of a gif connection
have to know each other's IP addresses, and my cable modem IP changes
periodically.  I also want the VPN router to be a seperate machine from
the cable modem proxy.  I need the VPN session to be encrypted so that my
cable modem provider will not know I am running mail, web and ftp servers 
over cable modem.

Can the gif interface be used through NAT?  If not, can anyone recommend a
better VPN solution do do what I want to do?

I can place anything I need to at my office to support the VPN connection.
Currently I have a FreeBSD 4.0R box there for this project.

Why make a lot of work when you can keep up todate using cvsup. The
easiest way to upgrade everything is by using the ports-supfile. You
can combine them but I prefer to update the ports independantly from
the system source and the docs. I copied the "ports-supfile" into a
directory in my root user space. Then, I created a shell script called
"uports" that fires off a cvsup using ports-stable. My uports looks
like

/root/bin/uports
<
#! /bin/sh
cd /root/cvsup
cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile
>

I just edited ports-supfile to do a "ports-all". BTW, I have a similar
script file for "updocs" and "upstable".

Hello,

I am running FreeBSD 4.0 with two UDMA drives. One is a 8 gig Maxtor
running at UDMA/33 and the other is a 40 gig Maxtor running at
UDMA/66. When I try to do large writes to either drive, gunzip'ing a large
file, sorting a large file, or any other type of intensive writing to the
drive, I get the following errors repeatedly:

Apr 22 05:02:40 37 /kernel: ad0: UDMA ICRC WRITE ERROR blk# 13597744
retrying

On the 8 gig drive, this will continue without any real effects, but on
the 40 gig drive, it will go so far as to halt/reboot my machine. I have
checked dmesg, and there doesn't appear to be any IRQ conflicts. Has
anyone else run across this, or possibly know what is going on? Any help
will be appreciated.

Thanks,

AG

You don't have to go that far before there is an advantage. I
benchmarked my UDMA66 Maxtor against an older IBM-UW. The IBM was more
than 10MB/s slower on sequential accesses of data. The IBM ran 8MB/s
across all of "iozone's tests. I ran both tests with setiathome
consuming all of the free cpu time. The Maxtor dropped below 750KB/s
on random accesses. The IBM continued on at 8MB/s. I think the random
test is consistent with a system build, which is the most time
consuming I/O bound thing I am doing on this machine. You can imagine
how the test would have looked with a 10K rpm IBM and a U2W controller
:).

I am trying to install freebsd 4.0-release on a new PC which has an
on-board Adaptec AIC 7890 SCSI disk.  After I boot from the two floppies,
and then try to use the "Express" option to do an quick installation.  It
says "no disk, please verify that your disk controller ...".  What
happened?

I searched the mailing list.  I may need a boot floppy that supports
CAM. There are floppies at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~abial/cam-boot/. But
they are for 3.0.  Are they still useful for 4.0-Release.

The motherboard I am using is ASUS P2B-D/P2B-DS.

Any help is appreciated.

The ports recently changed format, but new upgrade packages havent been
released supporting this format.
Your best bet is to learn how to use cvsup to update your ports.
There should be something about it in the handbook.

To clarify the subject line:

I found that in 3.4-RELEASE, if I create /etc/skey.access, then if I telnet
to the system and enter an invalid user ID, the login is aborted without
ever requesting a password.  It does NOT allow an invalid user to log on,
but it does give an attacker a method of identifying a valid user id.

An "invalid user ID" is, in this case, any user that is not allowed to
login with S/Key, either because the user doesn't exist, or is not enabled
in skey.access.

When I telnet to the system, it looks something like this:

  Connected to x.y.ufl.edu.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  login: fred
  Login incorrect
  login:   

I fixed the problem by editing /etc/pam.conf and changing the line

login   auth    requisite        pam_cleartext_pass_ok.so

to

login   auth    required        pam_cleartext_pass_ok.so 

My questions are:

1) Have I introduced some new problem by making this change?

2) Does this problem exist in 3.4-STABLE, and if not, is the fix
significantly better than what I did?  Upgrading to 3.4-STABLE would be a
real pain for at least one of the systems I encountered this on.

By the way, I cannot reproduce this on 4.0-RELEASE, so it got fixed
somewhere along the way.

Ok, having brought my 3.4-STABLE system up-to-date via CVSup, I thought
that it might be a good idea using CTM for keeping my system updated in
the future. *Unluckily* in the part of the Handbook where CTM is
explained, it does not say much of the lists that are available. Sending a
lists request to majordomo@freebsd.org tells me which CTM-lists are
available, but it does not really tell me what they're for.

So, in order to keep up-to-date with my FreeBSD-3.4-STABLE, would I
subscribe to ctm-cvs-cur or ctm-src-3? In CVSup I'm currently using
RELENG_3 and I'm getting src-all. I want to accomplish the same with CTM,
so which list do I need to subscribe to?

BTW: I'm sorry that I have posted so many questions in the last few days,
I hope it did not offend anybody. But when you move from Linux to FreeBSD,
you first notice that FreeBSD is different and then you notice that it's
much better and, after all, it's even easier to use... So, thanks to all
who have answered me so far!

Greetings,
Nils

I've seen this error before when running applications like cdcontrol.
For some reason this package seems to lock the cdrom in a strange way,
so that sysinstall doesn't recognise the CD properly.  Look for any
strange programs that might be doing something to the CDROM device.

Stop them and the error will dissapear.  :)

Cheers,
Marc

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================

Last update 3 September 1999

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  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.

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.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition




                         Last revision: 2 August 1999

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   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 third edition, formatted  on  17  May  1999.   You'll  find  this
information  on  page  iv  (the  page  before  the  beginning  of  the Table of
Contents).  See the end of this document for instructions on how  to  find  the
errata for an older version.

You can get the current document in four forms:

o A     PostScript     version,     suitable     for     printing    out,    at
  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third  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-3.txt. When
  viewed with more or less,  this  version  will  show  some  highlighting  and
  underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

o An  ASCII-only  version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This
  version is posted every week to the  FreeBSD-questions  mailing  list.   Only
  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-3.html.

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

_______

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

                     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

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.
    When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and
    underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

  o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. 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.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition

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

For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical
to   distribute   errata.    You  can  download  the  PostScript  version  from

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 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).

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.

sh, enter:

# cd /usr/X11R6

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:

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.

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.

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

Thanks to Charlie Sorsby  for drawing this to my attention.

________

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.

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.

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.

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 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

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.

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.

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

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:

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.

Out of curiosity, is there some reason why you dont want to continue to
use cvsup to keep your system up to date?  Since you've already used it
once, it would seem to be alot easier to continue using it rather than
trying to set up ctm.

Has anyone successfully installed the "sane" port? For some reason it
installed properly, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to
attach the backend to it so that it will utilize even the test backend.

When I type "scanimage -L" it returns absolutely nothing...

a shot in the dark...is the card that was xl0 when you still had the vx
card still xl0 after installing the new one or is it xl1?  perhaps the new
xl card is getting detected first and your firewall scripts are skewed
(configuring the devices in reverse).

Hello,

I recently visited the FreeBSD web site looking for version 2.2.7; I
have a kernel configuration for this version.

I recently purchased the FreeBSD kit from Walnut Creek version 3.2
stable.  I have installed this package onto a laptop and it works great,
however, I have interest in running a kernel configuration for version
2.2. When I run /usr/sbin/config  I get error that states:

"version of config does not match kernel; config version=300009, version
required=220000"

So it sounds like I need version 2.2.7.  How can I obtain? Must I
reinstall the FreeBSD OS? or can I make compatible? Is this version
included in my 3.2 distribution?

Thanks for your help.

Brian

If you have the time and a CD burner, you could download a 2.2.8 ISO
image.  I'm not sure that you can get 2.2.7.  In my opionion, it would
be easier just to make a kernel config for 3.2 or what ever that does
what you want in the new mannor.

Greetings,

	I own a Maxtor 91360D8 13 Gig IDE drive. I have partitioned it
using Dos 6.22 and partition magic. One Fat16 partitition which has
windows 98 on it, and is 7 gigs large. I am trying to install Freebsd 4.0
in the rest of the drive. I boot up with the cdrom and by the messages
that scroll by i am seeing that the drive is being detected as a Maxtor
drive with 4112650 sectors. When I arrive at the main install screen, i
switch to the virtual window to see what the error is, and the following
appears:

ad0s1: Slice extends beyond end of disk: Truncating from 18442557 to
4124673 sectors.

When i get to the partition manager, the disk geometry says 256 cyls/255
heads / 63 sectors. One partition gets detected( the DOS partition), but
it is smaller than it should be, and when i try to create a new one, (a
freebsd partition) there's no more space left it says. I've tried to
repartition many times but cannot get rid of the error above.

My BIO says the following for this drive:

Size	CYLS	Head	Precomp	Landz	Sector	Mode
13597	1653	255	0	26352	63	LBA

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Miguel Ramos
Toronto, ON, Canada.

Ever look at an autconf script (./configure) and see it checking for
deps:
Checking for GTK >= 1.1.2 
or somthing like that.  Greater than or equal too, and ports compile
from source.

I just went to Comdex in Chicago and picked up a copy 4.0. It installed
perfectly. Everything works great...except my stupid win modem, grrrr. No
way to fix that is there? Anyway, nice job. 4.0 is great so far.

Thanks,

I always answer slrn to this. It comes with slrnpull, which pulls a newsfeed
that you can then read offline. You can score messages, and kill those you
don't want (and don't bother wasting time to download).

Just use it.

Subject: Version 2.2.7??

Hello,

I recently visited the FreeBSD web site looking for version 2.2.7; I
have a kernel configuration for this version.

I recently purchased the FreeBSD kit from Walnut Creek version 3.2
stable.  I have installed this package onto a laptop and it works
great,
however, I have interest in running a kernel configuration for version
2.2. When I run /usr/sbin/config  I get error that states:

"version of config does not match kernel; config version=300009,
version
required=220000"

So it sounds like I need version 2.2.7.  How can I obtain? Must I
reinstall the FreeBSD OS? or can I make compatible? Is this version
included in my 3.2 distribution?

Thanks for your help.

Brian
bpvanle@sandia.gov

Brian,
If you absolutely need 2.2.7, I have an old 2.2.7 CD I could make an
image of and make available for you. Otherwise, I'd recommend getting
a newer version.
-Otter

I was wondering how "in sync" the document is on Apache's site for 
improving the performance of high-volume sites runing Apache.

(http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/perf.html#BSD)

Is there perhaps a more up-to-date document on the subject that one of
you grand people could point me to?

I am having some problems with my Sony SU 31 cdrom.    I just installed
4.0 from the main ftp site.  I made sure to install the src so I could
build a custom kernel.  I see the Sony cdrom referenced in LINT but
I can't get the kernel to build with the line

device    scd0    at isa?    port 0x340    bio

I've been running this machine on every release since 2.1 so I am a
little shocked to run into a problem with 4.0.

I installed FreeBSD 3.4 release and Kame v6 kernel and then configured

nis. Now I have this mysterious problem that Andreas had about a year ago.

I installed des and kerberos after the main installation was completed (because the ftp site did not have

des and kerberos libraries), and maybe because of this I am using MD5 ( the encrypted passwords start with $1)

NIS and amd are working fine and I can su to the user accounts from root.

(authentication for nis-user fails, only local user can login)

Any help?

Release 4.0 does not appear to come with an ext2fs module, and thus I
cannout mount any ext2 partitions.  Did I install wrong?

I'd really like to be able to copy my XF86Config info and whatnot over
from my linux partition.

Just to be fair, linux (Mandrake-- out of the box) does not like to mount
ufs either.

	I've used tin for years and have had nothing but good things to say about

I posted a similar message a few days ago, but figured it was crappy so i'm
doing a better post - sorry for the redundancy...

I'm trying to keep the incoming web and mail traffic isolated on it's own
physical link back to the internet (the isdn side), and push my LAN web
browsing on the cable modem (since it's not business related anyway, and for
surfing, it's much cheaper).  Besides, I can't host(business) web material
on my cable modem without violating my AUP and raining down the wrath of the
@home admins ;)

I'm trying to setup my LAN machines (10.0.0.x) to send all their data out
through ep0 on my freebsd machine.  (ep0 is a cable modem)  The FreeBSD
machine itself has a default route going out fxp1.  (Which is ISDN ...
(business))

Here are my important settings....  IP's changed to preserve the innocent ;)

fxp1 = 206.154.19.195 / gateway 206.154.19.194 (default route)
ep0 = 24.10.68.155 / gateway 24.10.68.1
fxp0 = 10.0.0.2

natd -n fxp1 (natd running translating stuff out isdn side)

It seemed to me that the obvious solution would be so set my default gateway
to the cable modem and let the other interface just do it's thing with what
traffic it gets.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work well.  My workstations get internet access,
but it appears incoming traffic from fxp1 is responded to on ep0.  That's
bad.

If any of you guys has a solution or idea, I'd be grateful.  I've been
battling this thing for a week now, inspecting man pages and faq's, reading
old mailing list archives and in general scouring the internet.  All I've
come up with is "yes it can be done" and "i don't know how" :)

Thanks guys....

Is there a listing of the laptops that are supported by BSD or can you
tell me if My laptop is supported without a lot of reconfiguring of the
kernel etc..
After reading about your OS both on the net and in my Linux Mag.
(currently I am trying out SuSE v. 6.4 Linux.

I am new to these environments, Linux and Unix but realize that it is
time to move out of the MS environment and learn a real OS.

I have a toshiba model 2065CDS 366mhz, AMD K6-2 W/3DNOW TECH..
4.3gig hd, 24x CD-ROM, S3 ViRGE MX 3D graphics controller, 32 meg of mem

also a integrated V.90/k56flex modem

My desk top computers are both using  ASUS motherboards, one a P2b-f and
the other is a P3b-f

P2b-f = 8GB HD w/192 mgb mem , ATI  RAGE FURY  32mgb 128  win98
P3B-f = 4GB HD w/64mgb mem. , ATI  Mach-64  4mgb      (little box)
Linux

Hopefully this will work so that I can use it while traveling.

CTM is useful for people whose FreeBSD systems aren't connected, or are
poorly connected, to the Internet.

If you want to use CTM, the proper thing is to start with the base against
which the CTM deltas are generated.  These are large files, so you'll
probably want to get them before taking your computer off the Internet. An
example is
http://ftp.sunet.se/ftp/pub/unix/FreeBSD/CTM/cvs-cur/cvs-cur.6200xEmpty.gz
.  If you start with the source tree that you've cvsupped, it may work for
a while, but inconsistencies are likely to show up someday.  After you've
downloaded the base, apply any deltas that have been generated since then.  
You can find them in the same directory on the FTP sites.  After that, you
can continue visiting the FTP sites occasionally to get the deltas, or you
can save them off the mailing list.

Here's the explanation
from http://www2.de.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html (on my system, it's
also in /usr/share/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook/):

   Send email to  to subscribe to one of the CTM
   distribution lists. ``ctm-cvs-cur'' supports the entire cvs tree.
   ``ctm-src-cur'' supports the head of the development branch.
   ``ctm-src-2_2'' supports the 2.2 release branch, etc.. (If you do not
   know how to subscribe yourself using majordomo, send a message first
   containing the word help -- it will send you back usage instructions.)

That document has some other information on CTM which you should read.

If you want to do "make release" (compile FreeBSD for installation or
upgrading via sysinstall), then you'll need to have the whole CVS tree.  
That will also enable you to check out any branch of FreeBSD and go back
in time to any date.  The downside is that the base is three or four times
the size of any particular branch (nearly 200 MB) and the deltas are
bigger too (because they encompass the changes to all branches).

I haven't actually used CTM yet, so take this with a grain of salt.  
Corrections are welcome.

Well, firstly you need a tape in the drive; if you don't, you'll get
that error.  Secondly, check the boot messages to see if the drive is
detected.  Thirdly, the command is wrong: you shouldn't specify
negative file numbers.  Fourthly, no matter what you do when
positioning /dev/rsa0, it will subsequently rewind, as Kent Stewart
observes.  Use /dev/nrsa0 if you want to play around with positioning.

Subject: vsload : file not found, while mounting ext2fs

Release 4.0 does not appear to come with an ext2fs module, and thus I
cannout mount any ext2 partitions.  Did I install wrong?

If you have a stock installation of 4.0-Release, it's to be expected.
The ext2 is an option, not a standard. You can add the support for it
in your kernel by adding the line "options    EXT2FS". I've got
several other things installed for Linux compatibility here. I'm not
sure what else, if any, is required. For more kernel options, check
out /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT. Hope this helps...
-Otter


I'd really like to be able to copy my XF86Config info and whatnot over
from my linux partition.

Just to be fair, linux (Mandrake-- out of the box) does not like to
mount
ufs either.

A bit of terminology, here..  ep0 is a network interface (3COM card) that
is connected to a cable modem with UTP.  You didn't connect your cable
modem to a hub/switch, did you?

It's a little hard to piece together your problem without an explanation
of how the machines are configured (i.e, which computer has which
interface, and which machines are giving you the problem).  Diagrams
always help.

You want your workstations to have Internet access from 24.10.168.0/24?  
Or from 206?  You are correct to run natd on the external interface, but,
if you wish to enable natd for the 24 network (i.e, you wish to map local
10.0.0.0/8 addresses to public 24.0.0.0/8 addresses, you must run natd on
ep0).  Thus, to specify everything explicitly (not always necessary, but
sometimes helpful):

natd -n ep0 -u -redirect_address 10.0.0.3 24.10.68.155

Note that you can specify more than one redirect_address (by repeating the
-redirect_address command in a similar manner), but only the LAST internal
address specified will recieve inbound packets from 24.10.68.155.

natd can be a tricky beast to the unwary, so keep the manpage handy :-)

On the machine(s) that will do web browsing across 24.0.0.0/8, try:

route delete default		# ***
route add default 24.10.68.1
route add -net 206.154.19.128/25 206.154.19.194

*** You may want to try `route flush` if you have been messing with the
    routes fairly heavily, leaving them in an unstable state.  You may
    even want to reboot to clear the memory and your own conscience ;-)

That will set up a default route through your cable modem, and direct all
traffic to the local 206' network through the other gateway.  Note, the
second line might require modification.  I've assumed a /25 network (i.e.,
range 128-254).  If your network is different (i.e, a /24), you'll need to
get the spec right to ensure proper broadcast and net.

Always run netstat -rn to check your routing tables against what they
should be.  Observe the MAC addresses and check against ifconfig -a to
verify that the routes are going through the correct interfaces.  
tcpdump(1) is also your friend.

This can be put in rc.conf for the next reboot:

defaultrouter="24.10.68.1"
static_routes="isdn"
route_isdn="-net 206.154.19.128/25 206.154.19.194"

If your setup is the reverse, or if you are trying to share IPs in a weird
way, you may want port based nat.  You MAY want to run a web proxy on your
24.0.0.0/8 machine.  Also, please forgive any errors in syntax.  This is 
all off the top of my head.

Different setups will probably be required depending on the role of the
machine(s) in question.  For instance, a machine that serves web requests
on port 80 AND browses, on two different networks, will require some
massaging of routes to ensure that the correct requests originate and
travel through the correct networks--port based NAT won't work with in the
way you might expect.

If this doesn't appear to help, please reply with a specific explanation
of how your network is set up (i.e, which computers are connected to what,
and which addresses (internal and external) belong to each interface).  
Output of netstat -rn, ifconfig -a and any relevant configuration
information that you might not have already stated will help us.

- Ryan

Please configure your mailer to wrap lines at ~72 characters, or enter
line breaks manually.  Doing so will help us read your post :-)

If you have Windows 98, drop to a DOS prompt and type fdisk /mbr to
restore the default boot manager.  Note that this will boot the designated
"ACTIVE" primary partition on your first drive.  One operating system will
certainly be unbootable.

In a FreeBSD system, you can run /stand/sysinstall, go to post-install
config menu, fdisk, and select the hard drive in question, and select
"Standard Boot Manager" from the options (selecting "None" is not
recommended :-).  Selecting the standard MBR should be functionally
equivalent to DOS fdisk, in the preceding paragraph.

** Hopefully, you won't have to do either one:

In answer to your problem of Windows being able to see only the 1st HD,
there are a couple possible reasons for this.  Having FreeBSD's boot
loader in the MBR is generally NOT such a reason.  If you formatted the
drive as "Dangerously dedicated", or if ALL the partitions on the drive
are NON-DOS (i.e., FreeBSD), you obviously won't have any drive letters
show up in Windows--and I think that's what you mean by Windows "not being
able to see the drive".  If that assumption is not correct, please explain
what you originally meant.

If the partitions are all DOS primaries, and one or more are not marked
active, those partitions will not be recognized by Windows.  

If you made a mistake using FDisk, your partition table may be
corrupt/invalid, in which case Windows might be confused and refuse to
show drives.

You need to write the ISO out as an image.  Don't write it out as a
file--it probably won't fit on your media, and you will just earn yourself
one very shiny coaster, with a condensation drain hole in the center :-)

Most burning hardware software will write out an ISO image--consult your
relevant documentation for details on how to do it.  The CD, if burned
correctly (and if your CD drive supports such a thing) will be bootable.  
So, if you can boot from it, it worked.  If you can't boot from it, you
may still be able to install from it by first booting from the floppy boot
disks.

If it still doesn't work, smile inwardly, observe your reflection in your
new high-tech coaster, make a set of floppy boot disks, and perform a
network install over FTP if you have that option.  May I also recommend
buying the pre-made CDs, complete with nice labels, from www.cdrom.com.  
In so doing, you will experience the truly gratifying experience of
supporting the free software effort.

Hope this helps,
- Ryan

Someone may correct me on this, but I *belive* the ElTorito format is an
extension on ISO9660 (which may or may not be compatible with the ISO9660
spec) that allows for Windows' long filenames.  However, to my knowledge,
the ISO9660 is the ONLY recommended format for cross-platform CDROMS (not
necessarily a limitation of FreeBSD).

"Illegal superblock" means the filesystem format being mounted (or, more
correctly, the block device being mounted) was not recognized.  If you get
this error mounting one of those ElTorrito discs, and NOT when mounting
genuine ISO discs, chances are ElTorrito is a Bad Idea :-)  Again, I don't
consider myself an expert on CD-ROM formats, but I DO know how to practice
common sense :-)

Or, you may be mounting your disc incorrectly.  Assuming you have an empty
/mnt directory, and that you are using an ATAPI CD-ROM (connected on your
IDE controller), try something like this:

mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0a /mnt

The -t cd9660 is essential, to specify that the media contains an ISO 9660
filesystem.  You WILL get superblock errors if you don't specify this, as
the mount program will look for a standard UFS file system otherwise.

/dev/acd0a is the location of the device node for your CD.  This may be
acd0a, acd0c, etc... Consult the output of `dmesg | grep cd` to see which
device node your CD is using.  If you have a SCSI cdrom, for instance, it
won't be an 'acd' block at all.

/mnt is the location under which the files will appear.  If you mount your
CD frequently, you may want to create a /cdrom directory for this purpose.  
/mnt, by convention, is a temporary mount point.

Hope this helps,
- Ryan

Hi Julian,

Assuming both xl cards are properly probed in the kernel and both are
functioning (they show as "UP" in the output of ifconfig -a), you
shouldn't have any real problems with configuration.

You MAY have just missed something when changing configs.  If you setup
worked before, and both cards ARE indeed functioning, double check your
configs.  grep vx0 /etc/* might be a good strategy.  Check the output
dmesg to ensure that the cards are probed correctly as xl0 and xl1.  
Check the MAC addresses against the outgoing connections to ensure that
you haven't got the cards mixed up.  (If you added another one, the new
card might become xl0, pushing the old one to xl1, depending on what BUS
order it was probed in).

If you are sharing a block of network addresses between the cards, special
care will be required to make sure the individual addresses are routed to
the correct machines.

You talk about being able to ping "outside" on either card.  Do you mean
to say that BOTH cards have routes to the outside?  What is your default
route?  Which networks do either cards access?  The output of netstat -rn
with ifconfig -a would be helpful here to show us how routing is set
up.

With two interfaces, you PROBABLY have one or more public IP addresses on
one of them (say, xl0), and any number of RFC 1918 (private) addresses,
from 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/16, or 192.168.0.0/16.  In doing so, you would
have to configure NAT on xl0 to redirect anything to/from your private
addresses (or maybe ports, depending on what you want), to one of your
public addresses.  I just posted a message in a different thread on this
list about configuring natd.

If this doesn't help, send us a more detailed description of your network
so we have a clear picture of what you need.

I`m wondering If creative webcam II works on Freebsd 3.4 or 4.0.
It`s based on CPiA, chipset which  is made by the
company STMicroelectronics (VLSI Vision Ltd.).
At boot time it get`s detected ...but what should i know i only started to
used freebsd.
Thanks for your answers.

ok, i'll correct you ;) the thing you mean is joliet. the unix pendant is called rockridge.
anyway el torito is an extesnsion, which emulates a floppy drive from cd, so the cd is bootable. so if you want to burn a bootable cd, the burning software will ask you for a boot floppy image.

i think this should solve the problem. in my first freebsd days i was used to the auto-regocnition of filesystems by linux, and i often got this error. :-)
btw. could alsao be mount_cd9660 ....
mine was automatically configured for mount /cdrom. how nice :)

I believe you can.  It's not something that I have tried, but assuming the
vtys exist and can be created by /dev/MAKEDEV, and have gettys running,
the PrintScrn key should iterate through all available virtual consoles.

Really, though, if you need more than 10 or 12 ttys, including an X seat,
you should save yourself the trouble and check out "screen" in the ports:

  cd /usr/ports/misc/screen && make all install

Allows for a HORRENDOUS amount of consoles, split consoles, and more.  It
is truly a programmers tool :-)

Ahh... Right.  Thanks.  It's been awhile since I burned anything but
straight ISOs.

Yup... I generally recommend the -t parameter as opposed to the mount_*.  
For this purpose, they are functionally equivalent anyway.


> mine was automatically configured for mount /cdrom. how nice :)

# echo '/dev/acd0a   /cdrom  cd9660  ro,noauto  0  0  ' >> /etc/fstab

..should do the trick (make sure those are TABS separating the fields, not
spaces.  I've used spaces here for ease of formatting).  Then a mount
/cdrom will pull the entry from fstab.  Similar entries are also
convenient for occasional/periodic NFS mounts, and floppies.

Hi!

I am new to FreeBSD and I have long experienc with other UNIX
( SCO ). Several day ago I install 3.3-RELEASE to my PC and found
some strange situation. After loggin in as regular user (uid=200)
I do the folowing:

$ cd /tmp
$ id
uid=200(artem) gid=100(group) groups=100(group)
$ > some.file
$ ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r--  1 artem  wheel  0 22 apr 09:29 some.file
$

Directory /tmp has typical mode -- no SUID, SGID flags, only sticky bit.

And I'm not member of wheel group. Friens says that it is FreeBSD
spesific.

But I'd like to have normal UNIX behavior with setting uid and gid in
i-node.
How I can fix this situtation? It sims to me, that some changes need to
be done
in sources of ufs filesystem...

Sorry for my english. Thank you!

Hi,

The sort by date feature on the www.freebsd.org/search/search.html
page is gone since a while. Any specific reason? It still seems to
work fine when I modify the URL by hand, and I rather miss it.

Thanks

Gerd

By no means do I express to be a filesystem guru, so I can't delve into
the history or rationale of "why" it is this way from a completely
informed standpoint.

At first guess, however, I'd say it is to enforce very strict permissions
on files created in sticky directories.  As an example, if a file with
default permissions of 775 (umask 002) is created with a common GID, any
group member would have access to rename or delete that file.  Thus, the
files are always owned by the wheel group so only superusers or wheel
members can perform those operations.  The behaviour makes sense when you
read sticky(8):

STICKY DIRECTORIES
     A directory whose `sticky bit' is set becomes an append-only 
     directory, or, more accurately, a directory in which the deletion of
     files is restricted.  A file in a sticky directory may only be
     removed or renamed by a user if the user has write permission for the
     directory and the user is the owner of the file, the owner of the
     directory, or the super-user.  This feature is usefully applied to
     directories such as /tmp which must be publicly writable but should
     deny users the license to arbitrarily delete or rename each others'
     files.

     Any user may create a sticky directory.  See chmod(1) for details
     about modifying file modes.
 
You will note that the man page makes no reference to "group member" in
regards to unlinking files.  Some may argue that "group member" is
implied, but, I think, given the behaviour, the current configuration is
sensible.

This might be a nitpick with freebsd-doc :-)

By all means, go for it on your own system.  Personally, I'm happy with
the current configuration.  Perhaps others would find your patch useful,
however.

I got this same error until I blew out all of /usr/src and reinstalled
the kernel sources from the CD (alternately, you could cvsup).  My
situation was a 3.x to 4.0 upgrade, so I think I did something wrong
and ended up with mixed kernel sources.

Hi,

I am not sure about the 3.2 kernel, but in 4.0 you can add
IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE to your kernel. Also try and have a look at whether
using the sysctl(8) interface in the MIB base of net.inet.ip.fw can do
what you need. I read the above from the ipfw man page.

My syslog.conf file only has
security.*                                      /var/log/security
for the security logs, and that seems to work.

One other thing, did you make sure that you have tabs and NOT spaces
separating the *.* and /var/log/ipfw in your syslog.conf file?

By the way, I just tried your method on my firewall logs and it worked. See
if it is the spaces. Thank you.

Hope that helps. I wish I knew more about 3.2.

Andrew.

Hi Everyone,

Looking through the news archives I see many people thinking
something may be wrong when 'gnutar -xzf' occasionally spits
out

	Broken pipe; child returned status 1
	
Doing a little research the reason appears to be that gnutar
sometimes finds the end of an archive when gunzip still
wants to send some final null bytes (something about
differing block sizes).

A small patch (sample below) could avoid this: Read any
pending data from the pipe to gunzip before closing it.

I am not absolutely sure however if that patch has side
effects in one of the many many modes gnutar supports.

gnutar seems to have no current maintainer, nor does the
gnu.org site provide any obvious means to supply patches.

Any suggestions how to procede with this?

Thanks

Gerd

The Apache documentation would be an excellent place to start.  It should
be installed on your system.  If not, it can be found under
http://www.apache.org/

Virtual hosting is a broad topic with an assortment of different "options"
in terms of implementation.  Perhaps the most important distinction is the
difference between name-based virtual hosting (many domains on one IP
address), or IP based virtual hosting (one-to-one mapping of domain to IP
address).  Unless you are an ISP with your own large block of addresses,
or your ISP has delegated a fairly large block to you, you will probably
want to utilize name-based virtual hosting.  As well, name-based virtual
hosting typically uses far fewer file handles and socket bindings, so it
is generally easier on system resources.  It also preserves network
addresses.

As an example of name based virtual hosting, we will assume you have a
public network address 172.16.0.1 (actually, that's a non
Internet-routable private address.  Please don't use it ;-)  You currently
have www.currentdomain.com pointed at 172.16.0.1.  Now, you also have
www.mydomain.com pointed at 172.16.0.1.  This is a DNS issue.  If you do
your own DNS, you will of course have to create a zone file for
mydomain.com and point the 'www' host to 172.16.0.1.  If your ISP does
your DNS for you, kindly ask them to do the same.  The convention is often
to also point mydomain.com at the same address for virtual hosts.  (So
they both forward resolve to 172.16.0.1).  The reverse entry for name
based virtuals is often nonsensical. :-)  It should usually resolve to a
host at your "primary" corporate domain. DNS is beyond the scope of your
query, and this message, so please ask if you have a specific problem with
hostname lookups.

Now, in your httpd.conf, you need to add a  container,
something like the following:


# The following line causes Apache to listen on the given network
# address and port number.  The :80 is usually implied, unless you've
# told Apache to bind to a nonstandard port in the default container.

NameVirtualHost 172.16.0.1:80



        ServerAdmin     webmaster@mydomain.com
        DocumentRoot    /www/mydomain/public_html
        ServerName      www.mydomain.com
        ServerAlias     mydomain.com
          


Note that you can also add things like custom logs, scriptaliases, and
locations inside  containers.  Consult the Apache
documentation for examples and further instructions.

Of course, after adding those lines to httpd.conf, you will need to
restart Apache.  Running `apachectl graceful` will nicely tell Apache to
reload its config files and restart server processes as they become idle.

Hope this helps,
- Ryan

I'm not going to verify your patch, but I WILL recommend posting it to
freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org so that someone will look at it, given that
you are uncertain as to its side effects.

When you are confident that your patch works (and/or an experienced bin
hacker has given it the thumbs up), you will probably be asked to submit a
PR including a problem description and your (possibly updated) patch.  Use
send-pr to submit the problem report and patch.

Hope this helps,

This ranges from simple, to annoyingly difficult.  Here's how to do it
on windows:

Load up your burning application.
Go to help/Find
search for ISO

you should see some entry on how to burn an ISO image.  It's a standard
format that is supported by most windows apps.  For *BSD or Linux, I am
not sure how to do it.

Hi Guys, Im sure you've seen this before, so just what have I screwed up?

Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
         If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
         and start again.

I get this whenever I start an Eterm.

Running version 4 secure-stable on a Toshiba 7020CT laptop.

thanks in advance.

Lee.

I don't know whether this is the reason, but there was a problem
with sort-by-date which I'd pointed out on the -doc list a few
months ago. 

http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=151495+0+archive/1999/freebsd-doc/19991114.freebsd-doc

Basically, you couldn't get the 25 most recent matches with
sort-by-date: if you picked "limit results to 25" and "sort by date",
it would pick the 25 highest-scoring matches overall and sort those by
date. So you may miss out recent messages and get higher-scoring but
older messages.  I'd suggested either changing the behaviour or
changing the wording on the page to make it clear what it actually does.

If you want to sort by date, try geocrawler (http://www.geocrawler.com)

What that is involved in FreeBSD is making an ISO image and then burning it
out using some sort of writing tool.  A good set that seem to work well
together is 'mkisofs' and 'cdrecord' which you will find in the
/usr/ports/sysutils directory.  There are lots of options detailed in the man
pages for both of these programs so take the time to sit down and actually
read them.  An idea when starting out is to use a rewritable cd so you can
have a couple of tries once you work out what you want to do without going
through a small pile of CDs.

There is also a GUI which runs under X11 called cd-write which apparently is
rather nice to use (I haven't had time to look at it yet - am still rebuilding
my X Terminal) and this is also found under /usr/ports/sysutils so could well
be worth the look if you are after a more one-click sort of deal rather than
something you can automate.

Well, I *will* continue to use cvsup. Now that I have gotten an answer on
how to use CTM (and after having re-read the appropriate part of the
handbook) I have decided that cvsup is in fact better suited to fit my
needs. The original idea why I wanted to use CTM was that I wanted to
update a machine that is not always connect to our network. So I thought
I'd get the CTM deltas in the mail, copy them to the other machine, and
that's it. But that's actually not the best way: If I want to update the
machine that does not normally have net connection, I can simply
disconnect one computer and then connect that machine for the time of
upgrading. I can then either run cvsup or mount the source tree of my
main-FreeBSD-system which was already updated via cvsup. It works that
simple ;-)

Well, I think cvsup is really great and I don't see a reason why I should
not use it. I really like it and I'm sure that it'll be helpful to me in
the future.

Greetings,
Nils

Thanks for your help, I had fun toying with some new ideas for a few hours,
but I guess I didn't give you guys a good picture of what I was trying to
do.  See down for the gory details.

I'd never used the redirect_address before.  Is this static NAT?  To tell
you the truth, i'm not that interested (yet) in redirecting all ports to the
workstations...  I'll keep this email handy though ;)

> natd can be a tricky beast to the unwary, so keep the manpage handy :-)

Tell me about it.

We're talking about the web server right?  the browsers will be on
10.0.0.0/8 addresses.  In any case, that route didn't do much except disable
the isdn side and turn the cablemodem side back on.  Now, if we're talking
about the client side, it appeared to work.  But anything hitting anything
in that /28 wasn't sending responses back.

Everything looks kosher actually.  Well, things match up.

I've run Squid+Junkbuster for quite some time.  Saves that expensive ISDN
bandwidth, kills cookies.  Gotta like ;)

My route tables are certainly tense, they need a good massage. ;)

Okay, I'll lay out the goodies below.  This is how I would like it to look
like.

        Workstation (10.0.0.12) ----- HUB ----- Other Workstations

                                  -----------

And this is how it currently stands

        Workstation (10.0.0.12) ----- HUB ----- Other Workstations
                                       |

                                  -----------

As I've tried to illustrate in my own primitive way, Internal Mail and Web
Browsing should go out the left hand side and leave out the Cable Modem.
(ep0)

Incoming Internet Mail and Web traffic should come in from the right hand
side and leave via  fxp1 and ISDN Router.

Below is my current configuration.  At this point, the cable modem is just
sitting there doing nothing.  I can ping the cable modem's router, and if i
reset my ipfw divert rule, natd, and default route, the cable modem works
fine - while dumping the ISDN side.

Here's a table of values ;)

host | Workstation  | 10.0.0.12      | /24 - 255.255.255.0   | 10.0.0.2
fxp0 | Into Hub     | 10.0.0.2       | /24 - 255.255.255.0   | no gateway

The most easiet way is to boot with a MSDOS Boot disk with a copy of FDISK.EXE
on it and type the following at the command line:

FDISK /MBR

This will rewrite the Master Boot Record.  Then run FDISK.EXE and make sure
your Windows Partition is the ACTIVE one.  (Should be easy to find under the
menus).  Reboot and you should find yourself back in Windows.

Remember though that this will mean you will have to activate your FreeBSD
partition to boot to it.  (Ie:  set it to the ACTIVE partition - once again
under FDISK.EXE).

 Hello,

 I am tring to use USB and having a difficulty.
 I have a FIC VA503+ motherboard and AMD K6-2 500.
The motherboard has onboard VIA USB controller.

On-board VIA controller, 
 1. With BIOS setup menu, USB keyboard works.
 2. With Win98 and DOS, USB keyboard works.
 3. With FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE, the keyboard is sometime
not recognized. When it is recognized, the keystorkes
are often lost and behaves quite erratically.


 To make sure the keyboard is Ok, I put in a ADS's USB
PCI card. The card uses OPTi's chip / OHCI driver.
 With this, USB keyboard works well under FreeBSD 4.0-
RELEASE.

 Since Keyboard (and mouse) works OK  with 98, I 
am assuming the on board USB controller, wiring, etc.
are fine.

 I compiled the kernel with some USB debug options
turned on. The keyboard reports status = 13 from
keyboard interrupt which is IOERROR.

 I am suspecting there is a subtle timing issue in
VIA controller which is causing the problem with 
UHCI driver.
 Could someone help me?

 Thanks.

Hi,

I recently obtained the 3.4-RELEASE ISO and installed that on my system. I'm
now a little confused with regards to the 3.4-STABLE release - am I right in
thinking that the RELEASE was a snapshot of STABLE at a certain point (Dec
1999)?

If this is the case, and I wish to make my system STABLE, are there any
listings of the files which have been changed since RELEASE, so I don't have
to get *all* the files?

I'm on a modem at home, so getting the whole src tree would take me ages -
however I could FTP the files from university and bring them home - would
that be okay and just copy the src tree I downloaded into my current src dir
and "make world" ?

So just wondered which is the best option for me here; simply get the latest
src tree via ftp, or just the files that've been updated since RELEASE. If
its as easy as getting the src tree, that would be easiest for me. I just
need assurance its okay to simply do that with messing up my system (like
there are other files which i need to update which i might not know about).

Many thanks,
Andy.

If you have a /usr/src tree already, you should take a look at CVSup.
Install it, create a supfile (/usr/share/examples/cvsup will set you
on the right road), tweak your /etc/make.conf and "cd /usr/src; make
update".

Yes. Except that before 3.4-RELEASE was made, the stable tree was
called 3.3-STABLE.

The easiest and quickest way to upgrade your source tree is via cvsup.
See the handbook, 
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html
which, if you installed the docs, should also be there on your machine in
/usr/share/doc/handbook/

Rahul.

I have IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE in the kernel and i used tabs in syslog.conf.
I tried killing syslogd and restarting it but still nothing.
I have only just noticed the following line in dmesg -
'IP packet filtering initialized, divert enabled, rule-based forwarding 
disabled,
logging disabled'   <---- is this the source of my troubles ???
I have blindly messed around some but can never get that enabled.

Anyways i have just ordered 4.0 so i wont worry too much for now
Thanks for all the suggestions

Hi All

I have a Acer Laptop fitted with PCMIA slots and am having trouble getting the
Ethernet PCMIA card working.

I'm running 4.0-RELEASE and added to the kernel 

device  card
device  pcic0   at isa? irq? port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000
device  pcic0   at isa? irq? port 0x3e2 iomem 0xd4000 disable


The error I get when I put in the Ethernet PCMIA card in is.

/kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot0
pccardd[46]: driver allocation failed for IC-CARD(IC-CARD):
Device not configured.


I know I have missed a step in setting up and any help would be great

Thanking you

You can use nohup, with ftp or wget (/usr/ports/net/wget).  Instead of
ftp, use nohup ftp, proceed as usual, use prompt and mget to
get several files without confirmation,  make sure the
downloading has started, then disconnect: the ftp should
continue. With wget, or with ftp  for a single file, you
can just put an & at the end of the command, the thing will be put
in the background and you can disconnect whenever you like without
disturbing it.

Unless, like all of the other laptop modems it is a WinModem which will
not work.

You can use nohup, with ftp or wget (/usr/ports/net/wget).  Instead of
ftp, use nohup ftp, proceed as usual, use prompt and mget to
get several files without confirmation,  make sure the
downloading has started, then disconnect: the ftp should
continue. With wget, or with ftp  for a single file, you
can just put an & at the end of the command, the thing will be put
in the background and you can disconnect whenever you like without
disturbing it.

* Yes, this may be a working solution. You should really check out
screen (/usr/ports/misc/screen). Yes, the others will work if you have
a task you want completed and don't care about the state you leave it
in. Let's say that you're editing a script or reading a log file and
get disconnected. Screen will allow you to return to that same view
you were at when you left (providing no errors show to that screen).
As a customer of an undependable dialup ISP back around '95, I found
that to be a very handy tool for working in remote machines. Check
into it. It's definitely worth your time.

Hi,

I have a machine that was running 3.4-STABLE and had PGP 5.0i
installed. Everything was working fine. The machine died (drive
failure) and has now been rebuilt, running 4.0-STABLE but again with the
pgp 5.0i port.

Unfortunatly now no one can "unlock" their secret keyring...pgp says their
passphrase is incorrect. I have my key on another another machine as well
and I can unlock it there. I've tried scping it from the working machine
but it doesn't help...it still says I'm getting my passphrase wrong.

I'm guessing it must be a library or some change to the port as it is
affecting all users. I cant see anything that would have caused it in cvs.

Thanks,

Andrew

I did have the src tree, so I did the update. Couldn't find any info
regarding what to do after the update, so I just presumed you did the "make
world" once it had updated. Well its been going at that for a while now, so
it looks promising :)

Thanks for the info, and for Rahul or also replied.

Your best bet would probably be IRC. try http://www.defcon1.org, they used
to have some pretty comprehensive quides to setting up ipfw/natd. It will
most likely be easiser for you when you start using natd translation to
allow inside access to outside.

In kernel, I configured vt220 support (VT-Terminal), my standard

Is there a reason you added extra support for hardware you decided to
emulate? I can understand if your pax application requires it. If not,
why not just use vt100? It seems to be more widely accepted and
probably isn't that much different. I can see some local applications
requiring it (interfacing to electronics, etc) but for remote access,
vt100 is a no-brainer. Don't take this email as an insult. I'm just
offering up advice in case you weren't aware of other vt models.
There's plenty of general info in the RFC about virtual terminals and
how they work if you need detail on it:

Hiyall,

I'm getting this error being displayed from pppd kernel ppp links,
running 4.0-STABLE:

pppnn: IPv6 not supported

(Where 'nn' is the ppp number).

Is it possible to prevent this?

Regards,

d.

I can tell you that a) it's a resource pig, and b) when I run it here,
all I type to start it is "netscape6". that automagically starts
./mozilla-bin and it runs as it should, well... as it was programmed
to.

/dev/cuaa3 isn't being detected on boot.  My modem is there, so I
cannot ppp from my bsd side.  Basic message:
stty -f /dev/cuaa3 -a 
"Bad file name" (paraphrasing from my short term memory)

bsd is detecting the mouse at COM0 and something I don't recognize
at COM1 (speed is 9600 if that is a clue).

Booting to linux confirmed the first two COMs and showed the modem
on COM3.

There was an odd thing in the linux dmesg:
ttyS0 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
ttyS1 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A
ttyS3 at 0x02e8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A

(where ttyS == cuaa -- I'd give the bsd dmesg too if it didn't require 
two reboots)

Could I have had an IRQ conflict all this time and just not noticed?

This came up 3 or 4 days ago.  Someone pointed out that FreeBSD 4.0
masks floating point exceptions, but 3.x doesn't. You can change that
by editing /usr/src/sys/i386/include/npx.h and changing a couple
of fairly obvious definitions, and recompiling kernel/rebooting. 
That worked for me.
Check the mail archives of the last week or so.

Rahul.

Thank you very much Ishmael and Ryan for responding!  I'll try some of
your suggestions on monday.  I had to change everything back for now since
that is a production machine.  If I have any troubles after your
suggestions I'll e-mail you some of the outputs.  I have a feeling that
Ryan might have hit it on the head when he said that the cards might have
gotten mixed up (my old xl0 became xl1). Thanks again!

with cdrecord.

It looks like it would be nice, but unless you run your wm in >800x600 you 
won't get all the options in one of the windows (its beena long time) nor 
will you be abl to click OK from the selection of those options.

Thanks for the answers.  Since I occasionally get old 486's for free,
and canabilize them for parts, I don't have to spend money on an old
box to get it running FreeBSD.  These freebies also give me the chance
to install the latest version of FreeBSD and "operate" on them and not
having to worry about the consquences.  I have quite a collection of
old 486's running various releases.  This old machine in question  will
have to be satisfied with a couple of old 250mb/340mb HDs that are 
lying around and I'll save the 174gb HD for another day.  Some day I'm 
going to spend money on a real computer!

I have made the first bootable 4.0 CD and the problem goes away.  
Obviously, the floppies do not have CAM driver.

Hi,

I currently have a Abit BP6 motherboard with 2 celeron 466's. I'm not sure
how to make FreeBSD make use of both these processors, can anyone give me a
point in the right direction as to where I should be looking?

I added SMP options in the kernel config, but I wasn't too sure what to use
so I left the defaults in:
# To make an SMP kernel, the next two are needed
options   SMP     # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
options   APIC_IO     # Symmetric (APIC) I/O
# Optionally these may need tweaked, (defaults shown):
options   NCPU=2      # number of CPUs
options   NBUS=4      # number of busses
options   NAPIC=1     # number of IO APICs
options   NINTR=24    # number of INTs

Would that be okay? And how can I test that I am using both processors? I
tried running a CPU intensive program and the load average never went over
1, which I thought would reach 2 if 2 processors were in use.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy.

Yes, I'm trying to install WP2000

I've either forgotten or never knew how to fix ldconfig to see the linux
libs...

I keep getting the error:
Error: libc6 (for Redhat glibc) is required to use this application.
Please refer to your Linux vendor...


How do I make the linux ldconfig see the linux glibc? Defining
LD_LIBRARY_PATH and running ldconfig didn't work. Please help. Thanks.

Try running two of your intensive programs and see what 'top' tells you.

I have a FIC SD-11 motherboard and an Athlon 500Mhz with 4.0-RELEASE.  I
experienced the "no keyboard detected" problem when installing 4.0 from
the boot floppies.  Now, after a successful install, the machine crashes
right after the boot manager prompts for "F2 FreeBSD".  I experienced
the same problem under the 3.4-RELEASE.  

If I use the boot floppy to get the boot loader up, I can tell it to
load the kernel off of the hard drive, and everything works correctly.

So what is causing the problem.  I am also on the latest BIOS (610) from
FIC.

Hehe, I ran both programs and sure enough they both were using 98% and 99%
CPU time. So I take it that little test was successful, as now the load
average is 2.2.

Guess I just wasn't pushing it enough!

Thanks.

Andy.

Is there any correct and accurate reference to what a load average means?
Mine runs as high as 1.8 and it's a single cpu machine.  Whereas on
a server it runs at 2.2 and it's an 8way machine, and I know it's usually
running at about 50%.  However that machine runs AIX 4.x

I have two questions. But don't despair yet, I think they will be my last
ones...

First, about the great CVSup think I've just learned to use a day ago: I
have FreeBSD-4.3-STABLE, which was 3.4-RELEASE before I updated it with
CVSup. Now, if I wanted to get 4.0-STABLE, is all I have to do running
CVSup and getting RELENG_4 or is there more to do in order to get from
3.4-STABLE to 4.0-STABLE?

Second question: I have messed up a system! In /etc/fstab I have set a
wrong root file system, and I noticed it after I had already
rebooted. Now, how can I create a floppy disk on a working machine with
which I can boot the other machine, so that I can mount the appropriate
partition and edit /etc/fstab. Or, as an alternative, is there some
argument I can set on the *bad* machine while it boots in order to specify
a root-fs different from the one specifies in its /etc/fstab?

Thanks in advance,
Nils

The load is the number of processes that want to run at a given moment.
The load average is just the average of the load over some (short) amount of
time. The three load numbers displayed with uptime or top is the load
average over the last 1, 5 and 15 minutes.

RFC 1321 describes the algorithm, if I'm not mistaken.

The MD5 algorithm in general is described in RFC 1321, which may be of
some help.  You can get RFCs from many places online, one such place is
 IIRC.  If that URL is wrong
(it's from memory, so it may well be) Altavista or any search engine
should be able to help you find it.

Could you please use a valid email address when posting to these lists?
I just got this when I tried to mail you:

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. The following address(es) failed:

  otter@telocity.com:
    SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO::
    host mail.telocity.com [216.227.56.40]:

I was going to ask you to use proper quote marks (like everyone else
does) in your mails so people reading can easily tell which bits you
wrote and which bits you're replying to.

Thanks.

You can use the FreeBSD installation disks to boot the machine, then
switch to another virtual console, mount the partition which contains
/etc, edit the fstab, and then reboot.

Dear Jim Conner,

My experience is quite different.

I have used cdrecord to backup data, to burn my releases etc. Also, I=20

In particular, I succedeed in burning a couple of "impossible" CD-RW=20

used by a Winblows guy who had been trying every possible Winblows=20
program to burn them=20

My hardware:
bartequi /kernel: cd0:  Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2=20
device=20
bartequi /kernel: cd0: 8.333MB/s transfers (8.333MHz, offset 15)

My software: cdrecord-1.8=20

N.B. The SCSI device I currently use is neither *expensive* nor=20
particularly *professional* albeit it IS a SCSI device.

Best regards,
Salvo

I'm just getting interested in using my HP-8100i (atapi) to burn CD-R
and CD-RW. Do you use mkisofs or do you burn directly to the cd. I
will have to use burncd but I'm wondering what options you use. The
next system I may convert to FreeBSD has a scsi cd-r burner on it. I
recently created a number of coffee coasters when they wouldn't burn
properly on NT. I was using a much older verison of EZ CD-Creator by
Adaptec. It turned out that cd-r really didn't like the new 700MB
media.

Hello,

I try to make X work on a DEC Alpha Personal Workstation 433 au with
XFree86-3.3.6, without success.
I think the graphics device within the box is a ZLXP-E  (or something
similiar) with 2MB of memory and a CL-GD5424 Chip on it.

Has anybody managed to get X work with this constellation under
XFree86-3.3.6? If so, could you mail me your /etc/XF86Config, please,
just to get a hint how to put things right.

Thanks a lot

Carlo.

I have a 'set' of 3com 3C595 PCI 10/100 adapters (qty 5). I am using a
FreeBSD 4 machine as the server. I have scanned through the handbook and
most of the online information, and have yet to find answers to my
questions. (including FAQ and handbook)

Where can i find documentation on getting them (multiple network cards)
usable by the system?
What would be the best methods, compiled into kernel or modules?

(i think pointing me to a multiple ethernet faq would be best.. I am
just unable to locate one)

	Not really. You'll want to use the 256 maxusers option at least, then
monitor your system to see how it flies. Use FreeBSD 4.0-Stable, which
already has SOMAXCONN defined much higher than 32, and does not need the
*_MAX options. Just make sure that you set everything to "unlimited" in
/etc/login.conf. Also, use SOFTUPDATES, and look through LINT to see if
there are any performance options that apply to your system. But don't
just apply them blindly, test and make sure that they give you a
benefit. 

	Other than that, the system you get with 4.0 is the product of years of
tuning that has taken place since that document was written. Apache +
FreeBSD is one of the most popular combinations of web serving platforms
in use on the internet today, so you will be in good company.

Just configure the kernel to handle all the different types of adapters you
have.  If you just have 3Com cards, that would be the vx or xl driver.  Some
ethernet drivers require you to put multiple entries in the kernel config
for each card, while others just require one entry and will auto-discover as
many interfaces as you have installed.

I presume that you're using the vx driver, since the newer xl driver for
3Com cards doesn't support the 595 chipset.  If you look at the vx(4)
manpage, you'll see that this is one of the drivers that requires multiple
entries in the kernel config.  You are probably seeing a message like:

vx%d: not configured; kernel is built for only %d devices.

upon boot.  Just put entries for vx0 through vx4 in your kernel config,
rebuild the kernel and you should be up and running.

	I have a different problem with RP7. I have installed the latest
linuxelator on my 5.0-Current system. I've installed the linux version
of RP7, and it works just fine for the real.com stuff, and for any URL's
that end in .ra or .ram. However, if I go to a page like,
http://webevents.broadcast.com/yahoo/nationalpressclubjyang0400/ with
those cheesy .asp links, it doesn't work. It starts up RP, but all I get
is the little welcome music and the clip I want to view never starts.
This is true whether I use the linux version of netscape, or the
freebsd. I also have rpnphelper symlinked in /usr/local/bin. I've
checked my mime types, and basically done everything I can think of to
make this work, and still no joy. 

	E-mail to real.com got a standard response of "we don't support
freebsd," but at my insistence the worker bees did go try that page with
"real" linux and they could view the clips no problem. I'm at the end of
my rope here, so any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.

FreeBSD 4.0 supports the ultra66, that's what i run.  I'm not sure about
the FastTrak, but it's essentially the same card.

Is this a gnu issue or a freebsd issue?

I'd recommend getting the newest tar (from alpha.gnu.org) and
seeing how it works...

gnutar does have maintainers...read the info file with gnu tar...

Reporting bugs or suggestions
=============================

   If you find problems or have suggestions about this program or
manual, please report them to `bug-tar@gnu.org'.



But please get the newest tar and see whether this still has bad behavior...

Sounds like you need to have the POSIX 1003.1b scheduling in your kernel
config:

# POSIX P1003.1B

# Real time extensions added in the 1993 Posix
# P1003_1B: Infrastructure
# _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING: Build in _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
# _KPOSIX_VERSION:             Version kernel is built for

options         P1003_1B
options         _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
options         _KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L

I've been following all of the burning cd threads on -questions and
-stable and it never occurred to me to look at -current. It was a
wakeup in two respects because I had never noticed anything but
-questions on geocrawler and I have my own archive of the last month
or so. There were certainly a lot of discussion of what didn't work
and never saw anything about what did work. I spent a couple of hours
on geocrawler last night and found one message from "Randall Hopper"
that was almost a cookbook for burning your own FreeBSD cd but it was
from Feb 1998. A lot has changed since then. Eventually, I did a "man
mkisofs | col -b > mkisofs.txt" and another for burncd. Then, I lpr'ed
them and spent some time reading each. Before I ever do my first
mkisofs I will have a .mkisofsrc created. There are simply too many
meaningless options to mis-type until you find the magic combo. 

That was quite a list of messages to look at. It could keep me
occupied (out of trouble) for awhile after I get back from eating
dinner. I can always do a mkisofs and then transfer the image to the
Windows 2000 side of the machine to burn it. I just have to reboot it,
which I'm trying not to do. I also want the CD's readable on
W2K/NT/Win9x, which doesn't permit many choices for creating the iso.
I have some mapping programs and data that I have collected (1GB +)
and want to ship to someone involved with a similar project in
Germany. He is using Win 98. My dat tape is a much easier solution on
my end.

Thanks (I think :) ),

Kent

I just finished reading them. I didn't wait :). One of the points that
either HP or Adaptec made on one of their support list's about burning
cd's that died in the creation of the TOC was busmastering. I don't
remember where I was reading that. It may only be a problem with EZ
CD-Creator on Windows. I may have to follow my trail and see if I can
find it again.

I will end up trying to burn a CD fairly soon but I have yet to turn
on _DMA_ kernel support for the ATAPI-cdrom. It is the master and
there is a slave HD on the secondary controller.

Yeah, it does seem a bit excessive, but on the other hand, these options
are standard in GENERIC thesedays (at least on 4.0 and above). A native
NS6 binary (if/when they release one) might not have this limitation -
i.e. it might be because linux supports these by default.

I agree that these options is useful.
I never set s bit for mozilla - at first.
And never use high priority for such an application - at second and main.

Excellent drive, and as close to plug-and-play as you'll get.

I am thinking about getting a stand-alone isdn router
for use on my home network if i cannot find a
usrobotics internal ta....if i cannot get one of
these, i may get a nortel rt338 isdn router that is
capable of nat/dhcp....i would really rather use the 
fbsd 3.4 box i have as a firewall/dfgw....however, i cannot
determine how i will be able to overcome the dynamic ip
that the isp will assign the router...is there a command
that i have overlooked in the man pages that will allow
this? pppoed sounds like a possibility....

Is the pan newsreader port broken? I cvsup'd the ports tree at
21:30 BST last night (22/4) but it dies. I've included part of the
output below but to avoid wasting bandwidth the complete output is at
ftp://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/pub/mark/pan_build.script=20

It would appear from the messages that GNU gettext is required, but if
this is the case why is it not a dependency?

Output of ``uname -a'':

You still need to look at this.  What was the reply you got at your

That's not enough.  You need signal lines, at least crossed over DTR,
DSR, DCD, CTS and RTS.

Yes, that's the cable.  You can solve the problem on the host machine
by setting the clocal attribute with stty, but I don't think the
target machine will react without DCD and DSR.

Well, XFS is a file system, not a direct I/O facility.  What exactly
do you mean?

If you run one CPU intensive program, it will run in one CPU.  You
need at least two to use both CPUs.  Take a look at dmesg.  You should
see:

  SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!

Yep, its there. I did actually see that message on bootup, and first
impression was that only #1 CPU had been started or something, and wondered
where #2 was :-)
Thanks for clearing it up.

Now I rest in the knowledge my box is running at its fastest :-)

You don't have a #2.  #0 is what produced all the messages so far.

I've just installed a system with exactly the same motherboard/CPU
combination.  I'm quite impressed.

That won't necessarily be true using a Celeron. The bottleneck in the
kind of calculations I do is the PC-66 memory. In scaling tests that I
did, my Celeron 433a ran at about the same throughput as a p-II 300 on
a 100MHz FSB. They only sold them for 66MHz bus but that was the ratio
I obtained. A pair of dual P-II 350's with 100MHz FSB could out
produce your dual Celeron's.

As am I, and I was tempted to try and overclock them - but I hear its hard
to debug if the system dies from overclocking. If anyone else has the same
setup (BP6/2x466 celerons) and has safely overclocked them for some time now
without any instability, let us know.

Andy.

Try going to tbelow it mihg help.

You know there is documentation in httpd.conf itself on how to modify your
httpd.conf to setup www.mydomain.com

There is a file in apache called httpd.conf located in /usr/local/apache
(depends where you installed apache) do "locate" to find it.

Now type in cd conf to access the conf files 

Now yo uhave to create a directories for document root before you modify
httpd.conf

Now modify httpd.conf so you have something like for your virtualhost


   ServerAdmin webmaster@host.some_domain.com
   DocumentRoot /www/docs/host.some_domain.com
   ServerName host.some_domain.com
   ErrorLog logs/host.some_domain.com-error_log
   CustomLog logs/host.some_domain.com-access_log common

Hello try the ports /usr/ports/linux/realplayer 
I think, I never had a need to use RealPlayer so I am not 100% certain.

-Hello over the last few  months I have finally to make FreeBSD my workstation
also.
-I have invested in Applixware for FreeBSD to do my job on FreeBSD, etc etc
The only final stepping stone is to get my scanner working on FreeBSD

-The scanner is plugged to the parallel port
-The scanner is Optic Pro 

Question

-I what entry I have to add /sys/i386/conf/MYKERNEL file to get FreeBSD to work
with the scanner

-What do I do with MAKEDEV to get my scanner to work

You shouldn't need any kernel mods.

Nothing.

What you *do* need is a scanner package such as sane.  Take a look at
the port (/usr/ports/graphics/sane).

Ok, I'm kinda curious if anyone else has noticed this.  I realize there are 
some things that have been added, but it seems like a pretty significant jump.

The system:
P3-600E, 384M, Adaptec 3950U2 with a seagate baracuda and cheetah 
drive.  (/usr/src is on the baracuda).

With 3.x-stable, our make buildworld time was about 35 minutes.  We just 
updated that to 4.x-stable using the cd upgrade method in sysinstall, and 
the build time has jumped to 55 minutes.  Now, has that much really been 
added to the build process? Or is something odd going on?

I'll also note, the times for make, make -j 2, and make -j 4 all are about 
3 minutes apart, so there's no benefit for trying those.

So basically, is this jump normal? Or is it unusual?

It is about the same jump that I'm seeing. I have setiathome running
in the background (nice of 19) and on 3.4 it would still show about
90% of the cpu running top. On 4.0-stable, I am seeing the buildworlds
jump from 2000u second to 3500u second and setiathome doesn't accrue
any appreciable cpu time.

I just got a Linux software program at work (no source code). One of its
features is to do distributed processing via RPC. I am using FreeBSD
4.0-STABLE, with the latest Linux_base port. The software runs fine
except for the RPC. Portmap is running.

Here is what I did. I added the following line to /etc/rpc:

bminrd          630474513

I then updated the NIS maps and verified that the info was getting
across to each host via rpcinfo -p.

I started up the daemon, bminrd, on each of the hosts that will be
running calculations. The daemon is running and appears to be fine but
communication does not work as evidenced by the following output of
rpcinfo -t node6 bminrd:

rpcinfo: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection reset by peer

program 630474513 version 0 is not available

Does RPC for Linux binaries work in FreeBSD? If so, what do I need to
do?

Thanks in advance.

Dear gentleman,

i was wondering which device does Free support, but i don't want to look
on the standard documentation. Instead, i would like to get this
information from the sources.
I have a simple question for all you: Which file should i look into for
?
I am running 4.0Stable, and searching for Myles Raid Support and adaptec
SCSI controller.

Thank you for your time and cooperation.

Only increases the arguments for the faster more powerful machine I
"need":)

First I run 3.4-RELEASE on P233

Anyway the information from the thread I have been able to get
'acroread4' running.  In the process I have changed the error trying to
run 'netscape6'.

I now error out with:

.//run-mozilla.sh ./mozilla-bin
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/local/lib/linux-netscape6
 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/linux-netscape6:/usr/local/lib/linux-netscape6/Cool

I would like to get this resolved.  Or is it simply better to install
4.0-RELEASE or later.

Hello,
Can I get some information with respect to SNP and how well FreeBSD can 
handle up to 8 processors. Would anyone know what RAID cards are 
supported. Someone sent me mail saying that only Vinum will work.

Thank you for your help,

Lanny Baron

Yesterday whilst running several instances of Netscape and Acroread my
machine hung. There was several minutes of endless disk thrashing, but
no response from the keyboard or mouse. Trying to switch to a ttyv
resulted in a blank screen. Despite waiting ~10 minutes after the disk
thrashing stopped I resorted to the good old 3-finger salute.

Checking /var/log/messages after re-booting I found:

Apr 22 05:04:24 parish /kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space
Apr 22 05:04:24 parish /kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed

OK, I know the cause and the solution, but what I am curious about is
why can't FreeBSD handle this situation? I would have expected it to
kill the process that needed the swap, or at least allow me to switch
to a ttyv and kill processes manually.

Curiously, it did shutdown cleanly as no fs errors appeared (and fsck
didn't run) when it re-started.

Is there any way to recover from an out of swap situation without
resorting to a reboot?
