I have a problem running the Squid proxy on our new FreeBSD server. I know it's something simple.. When I log into the server Squid is running... if I run something heavy on the box such as compiling some software, Squid shuts down on it's own. It only seems to happen under high system loading. Squid is running SetUID Squid.bin and I think it has something to do with the amount of resource a specific user may use?? How can I check this and/or adjust this? I'd like Squid as a user to be able to use as much system resource as needed.

You can. No hub is required, just two ethernet cards and a BNC cable between them. Put one card in your LAN Server machine and one card in the FreeBSD machine. Clients who need to access the FreeBSD machine must use TCP/IP, and that assumes you will have TCP/IP running on the LAN Server machine to route traffic between the clients and FreeBSD. This will also work if you want to use the FreeBSD machine as in Internet Gateway. And with Samba, FreeBSD makes a good DOS/Windows file server too. But it uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP, not raw NetBEUI/NetBIOS. The only weakness in this approach is IBM's TCP/IP stack which will run on the LS40 machine. I'm not sure how well it will perform or how stable it is. My own experience with IBM TCP/IP on OS/2 indicates that it is weak and not completely stable. The other alternative is BSDI, a commercial product which is a close cousin of FreeBSD. I believe they have token ring driver support and it will only cost you about $1,000 which should be a small cost for a company running a LAN Server environment. BSDI directly attached to your token ring will give you the excellent performance of genuine BSD TCP/IP and not IBM's dubious code. And if you wanted to add FreeBSD servers, via ethernet you could attach the FreeBSD machines to the BSDI machine which would route TCP/IP traffic between the token ring and the ethernet.

I Have looked in the FAQ, and documentation on sendmail at sendmail.org I can see part of my answer but do not know how to get it all to mesh well. My problem is this. I need to configure sendmail to allow user "foo" to send mail frome exchange as EITHER foo@foo.com OR foo@foop.com. foo.com being local LAN mail and foop.com being internet mail. I need sendmail to LEAVE the FROM header either foo.com or foop.com depending on how each user sends his/her mail. Then I need sendmail to use the same /var/mail/foo box for both foo@foo.com AND foo@foop.com Sooo.. 1) I need to find documentation on one user having multiple @foo.com addresses. 2) I need documentation on keeping the FROM headers from each seperate @foo.com address. So that the replies go to the right domain. foop.com is a registered domain, while foo.com isnt. so internet mail needs to be able to be replied to and keep the From header: foop.com while lan mail with a from header of foo.com will reply to just the lan. 3) I hope this made sense. thanks for any pointers.

Nothing, if I recall correctly. Some systems (at least MIPS) use *cvt() (where * is a subset of the format characters) as part of the implementation of *printf(). For some reason, this implementation is bypassing the *printf() layer.

Well, I'd say it's right. How do you get that name? What does your system report when it boots? Check it with dmesg; it's probably best just to post the output. To find what you've put on the disk, use 'disklabel -r'.

It > would be nice not to disrupt mail in such circumstances. I've always been opposed to creating more slices on a disk than necessary. In a case like this, I would definitely create only two slices: / and /usr. Create a directory /usr/var and a symlink /var to point to it. > 2) Transfering users - simply copy the /etc/passwd file and shadow passwd ? No, /etc/master.passwd is the one you want.

(i fear that such a > useful feature seems to be unique to AIX) Sorry, there's no way to do this with ufs. It's not unique to aix (the Veritas File System can do it too), but ufs can't. If you allocate all the space to /usr as I suggest above, you won't have much trouble here. About the only advantage I can find in multiple slices is that you can ensure that the usage doesn't take over the whole disk. This doesn't look like your problem, but if it is, the BSD answer is quotas. > 4) Do experienced users actually not allocate all of the space to > filesystems on installation and then allocate on a needs basis, > over the months/years ?

You'll need to create two mailers, one for the Internet and one for your LAN (replacing the default esmtp mailer). You'll then have to add some bits to ruleset 0 so that your LAN mailer is used based on the target machine/domain name being local (probably by setting up a class using ``C{LOCAL}'' or ``F{LOCAL}''), and the internet mailer is used for all other domains. Once you've done this, you can add a ``S='' line to each mailer, pointing at a ruleset that rewrites the sender address so that it's from the correct domain. Don't try to do this stuff unless you know what you're doing ;^P I'd suggest getting O'Reillys 2nd edition Sendmail book if you want to figure it all out.

Since I am confident in the security of my home system, I would like the ability for my "drifter" account to mount and unmount my floppy at will. Unfortunately, I have not been able to figure it out. Yes, I am being lazy in not wanting to su root all the time, and when I am in X, I don't like switching between graphics mode and text mode VTs. mtools are useful for most floppy applications, but not my UFS ZIP drive or cdrom. So, without writing an expect script, is there a way to allow non-root users to mount a floppy drive? Here is what I have tried so far: 1) make sure /dev/fd0* (all forms of fd0, such as fd0a and fd0.1440) have permissions set to rw for user, group, and other. 2) /mnt's permissions are set to 777 (I suppose 666 would suffice as well) 3) I checked /sbin/mount: permissions allow user, group, and other read/execute status. I took that one step further and added suid and sgid bits to that and /sbin/mount_msdos, making sure I chown'd the files root.bin first. 4) And (oh yeah) I tried "man mount" and "man mount_msdos". Unfortunately, there appeared to be no helpful information on that particular topic. 5) I checked the file permissions on /etc/fstab, though I didn't think it would help. It didn't. 6) I even tried the suid route on /lkm/msdos_mod.o, as well, though I don't think that has anything to do with the actual mounting. In all cases, drifter's attempts to mount the device failed, though root can of course do so. drifter$ mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt msdos: /dev/fd0: Permission denied The reason I want to do this is to allow user "drifter" to mount and unmount a floppy (or ZIP) drive by point-and-click while in an X-session. Also, user "drifter" is a member of group wheel. I am using FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. -Drifter ---- drifter@stratos.nospam.net (remove nospam to send) "Ever notice that in every commercial about the Internet, advertising geniuses can't resist having a bunch of kids staring into a monitor, awe- struck, looking at a whale jumping out of the ocean?

The first virtual terminal gets flooded with the error code isa_dmastart:channel 5 busy. If I switch the kernel config to try a different dma X, then the error would be isa_dmastart:channel X busy. Any feedback would be appreciated.

The kernels are compiled for both driver cards at the moment. But even when compiled for only one card type the behaviour is the same.

Is this a GNU bad, or has FreeBSD > done something clever, or (horrors) am I missing the point entirely? Assuming that's really the program, you're missing the point. You're using the function as an array (strerror [0] instead of strerror (0)). I don't know why gcc didn't complain about that, but maybe it's legal (strerror [0] = *sterror). What I don't understand is how you can subscript a scalar function. The assembler output indicates that it's just using the address of the function: LC0: .ascii "read failed: %s\12\0" .align 2 .globl _main .type _main,@function _main: pushl %ebp movl %esp,%ebp call ___main pushl $_strerror ; 2nd parm: address of strerror pushl $LC0 ; 1st parm: format string call _printf Certainly if you change this to: printf ("read failed: %s\n", strerror (0)); things look a whole lot better. Alternatively, you could write printf ("read failed: %s\n", sys_errlist [0]); which is probably what was confusing you.

There seems to be an error in the boot disk - when using the ppp dialup the ppp program gives an error when starting saying that it cannot create /var/run/tun0.pid ignoring this error and dialing to my isp i connected only to find that it could not lookup your ftp server. Problems I like to solve so I downloaded the /bin directory from the distribution and installed it from msdos... BAD MOVE the install errored out on the 16th floppy because of checksum errors. I decided to use what it had installed and i ran the emergency holographic shell. After about 3 minuits of "ls-ing" i descovedrd that the directory /var/run/ dosent exist and thats why the ppp program could not create the tunnell pipe /var/run/tun0.pid using the programs installed from the bin distribution i mkdir-ed a directory called /var/run .... and IT WORKED!!!! Please fix this problem.. a lot of people are tring to install freebsd and if there not *nix gurus they will just give up.

As others have mentioned, you can usually use sprintf to accomplish the same thing. It is a pain, tho, to have to figure out the appropriate fix each time it arises -- there is more that one software package that assumes that the *cvt() family of functions exist. To solve this at one point in the past, I ported versions from Linux's 5.4.7 libc. I also have a man page, but I don't remember where I got that -- I probably found it via Altavista when I was trying to find *cvt. Anyway, here are the RCS files for cvt.c and gcvt.c, and the man page. Compile with -DTEST to get an interactive test driver.

X.fi X.SH DESCRIPTION X.ft B XThese interfaces are obsoleted by printf(3). X.br XThey are available from liblocal. X.ft R X.PP X.I Ecvt Xconverts the X.I value Xto a null-terminated string of X.I ndigit XASCII digits and returns a pointer thereto. XThe position of the decimal point relative to the Xbeginning of the string is stored indirectly through X.IR decpt "" X(negative means to the left of the returned digits). XIf the sign of the result is negative, the word pointed to by X.IR sign "" Xis non-zero, otherwise it is zero. The low-order digit is rounded. X.PP X.IR Fcvt " is identical to " "ecvt\fR, except that the correct digit" Xhas been rounded for Fortran F-format output of the number Xof digits specified by X.IR \(*_ndigits . X.PP X.I Gcvt Xconverts the X.I value Xto a null-terminated ASCII string in X.I buf Xand returns a pointer to X.I buf. XIt attempts to produce X.I ndigit Xsignificant digits in Fortran F format if possible, otherwise E format, Xready for printing. Trailing zeros may be suppressed.

I'm running a FreeBSD server (2.2.1-RELEASE) as my primary Web Server. Up until now I was the only one updating our Web pages, but from now on there will be several others users developing their pages. They already have their user accounts working, my problem is that I can't get mshell to work. I have written a main.men file with the next format: Main Menu 1 Exit this menu {Several Options} ***** 1 cmd=csh {The next commands} But when I execute mshell main I get a blank screen. When I select any menu option, it DOES execute and when the command ends it briefly displays the content of the menu (from the first line up until the *****). But right after that it's a blank screen again... Do you have any idea? Thanks for your time. Carlos G. Andrade Network Adminsitrator.

Both run FreeBSD 2.2.5. One is a desktop that is hard wired into the outside network via the ed0 interface. The other is a laptop that I currently use via user-mode ppp over a modem at home. My ISP (my employer) provides me with a dynamically assigned IP address every time I log on to the network via the phone. The laptop does not have a "real" IP address as of yet. When I bring my laptop to work, I'd like to communicate with the rest of the outside world via a serial connection. I think I can do this by using the desktop machine as a gateway that implements NAT between the ed0 interface and some serial interface. A simple diagram: ed0 serial outside world <===> desktop machine <======> laptop My questions are: 1) Am I right in thinking that this is possible 2) If the answer to 1 is yes, what software should I use to achieve the connection. a) should I use ppp on both the laptop and desktop or b) should I run natd on the desktop and use slip or ppp on the laptop, or c) is there some solution that is better (or actually works). Any pointers or comments would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, A. -- Allan E.

How can i do that without > problems? Well, if you have the ports tree (just the makefiles) installed, you can use those without worrying about whether 2.2.2 is on an ftp site or not. However I think that you can tell sysinstall that you're trying to install 2.2.6(Due out fairly soon anyways)-RELEASE. It'd probably be worth your while to upgrade anyways. You can use cvsup to keep track of the -current (3.0) or -stable (2.2.x) branches. El hombre mas brillante dijo una vez "Cuidado hay NT".

All other logins work ok though under X. Also, if I start X as root and then type `finger', I don't see root listed under the pseudo-terminals anywhere. For ex., if I have two xterms open, finger should report that root is on ttyp0 and ttyp1 but I don't see them. If I start a new xterm via xterm -e login dmm125 &, I can log in OK and `finger' reports me as being logged in on ttyp2.

I usually use the Custom (#7 on -current), and proceed from there. Make sure however, that your disk partitions (#2) and slices (#3) are setup, and that it eventually formats the slices.

If you must, you can enable it by changing the keyword "insecure" to "secure" on the corresponding lines in /etc/ttys, but this is STRONGLY discouraged -- at least in my opinion -- because it will permit root logins from the outside network as well and thus very dangerous.

I have two hard disks, one primary master, one secondary master. I have set aside a partition on the secondary master for FreeBSD, the rest is for Win95. The problem is when I boot, (using booteasy to select OS's), FreeBSD panics with a 'cannot mount root' message. I can boot from a fixit floppy and mount root manually just fine (using mount /dev/wd2s1 /mnt). I have even compiled a new kernel with the line: config kernel root on wd2 in the config file. The strange thing is this, just before it panics, it prints 'changing root device to wd1a'. Why should it say wd1a when I am specifying wd2? Is this a bug in 2.2.2-RELEASE? I know that I am booting the correct kernel from the console messages. I hope somebody can shed some light here. I think FreeBSD is great, but the install process is far from logical, at least in 2.2.2. Help much appreciated, Jeff.

I'm receiving the list again! Ok, big important question here for anyone who can help! Recently, I set up sendmail and fetchmail on my FreeBSD box at home. I have little or no experience with the programs; aside from knowing what they do, I know nothing about how to operate them. In my /etc/hosts file, I have my domain set as magus.inconnect.com. This is purely to distinguish my home machine from inconnect.com and is a dynamic IP (i.e., I'm not registered to InterNIC or any other DNS). The big problem I'm having is with only certain domains (FreeBSD.org is one of them). Whenever I send e-mail to these domains, I always end up with a message from Mailer-Daemon saying that magus.inconnect.com must resolve. Obviously, this is currently impossible (but may become possible in the future). So, to compose e-mail to these domains, I have to rlogin to inconnect.com, invoke a mailx (or pine or whatever) process, compose the e-mail, and send it off. This is becoming quite an inconvenience. I would like to use my regular e-mail program(s) and have everything work fine for all domains. Could any of you help me make this so? I would appreciate any help that anyone could offer! And please don't tell me it can't be done! That would be heartbreaking! Since I am a poor starving college student, I can't afford the outrageous prices for an ISDN/dedicated connection yet.

When I make a new UFS ZIP disk, I mount it and I chown rhh and chgrp zip (I created that group) on the root dir of the ZIP UFS. That of course let's me (or anyone else I put in group zip) write to it as myself/themselves without being root. Now as to the mounting part, I haven't found a way to get mount as an ordinary user. I wish there was a way to give mount access per device to a group, but if it exists I don't know about it. In lieu of that, I use a hack: setuid mount{zip,cd,...}/umount{zip,cd,...} Perl scripts, so I don't have to mess with suing all the time. Examples attached. Now this works fine for UFS disks, and on 2.2.x, it works fine for DOS ZIP disks. But there's some bug on 3.0-current that prevents you from running mount_msdos setuid, so unfortunately we'll need to su for that until the bug is fixed.

For X, in .xinitrc: > xmodmap - << EOF remove Lock = Caps_Lock remove Control = Control_L keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L add Lock = Caps_Lock add Control = Control_L EOF For syscons, copy /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.iso.kbd somewhere, make these mods: < 029 lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl O > 029 clock clock clock clock clock clock clock clock O < 058 clock clock clock clock clock clock clock clock O > 058 lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl lctrl O And then point keymap="..." to it in rc.conf. You mention dvorak. Just browsing here, I see that there are us.dvorak.kbd and us.dvorakx.kbd keymaps in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps, in addition to the standard us.iso.kbd. So to satisfy your users, what it sounds like you want is a default set of kbdcontrols/xmodmaps in the global profile (shell startup scripts for console or xinitrc for X), and user-overrides in their local profiles (shell startup scripts or .xinitrc for X).

Which one would I pick? Well, if you want to port pine, do: # cd /usr/ports/mail/pine # make install To answer your question, though: If you have the choice BSD, BSDI (I don't think anybody calls it BSDi) and NetBSD, you can probably assume that 'BSD' is less specific, and thus possibly older (4.2BSD or 4.3BSD, depending on the package). BSDI is usually closer to FreeBSD than NetBSD is, so I'd try that first. Of course, you can always run into minor problems in any of the three, and even for FreeBSD if it was developed for a different version.

You can stop sendmail from guessing your hostname by defining the "j" macro. In your /etc/sendmail.cf, add a line such as this one: Djmail.iconnect.com Of course, this is a lie but not too far from the truth. Also, it is probably more useful than some random IP number especially if your account names on inconnect.com and your FreeBSD machine are the same.

Obviously, This is technique that is being used by many sites (including freebsd.org :) to limit spam. A very large chunk of incoming spam is from unresolvable hosts, and very little (to none) of such hosts are sending valid mail. That's the why.

In-Reply-To: <19980126173246.37663@ct.picker.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk Hi, Use xkeycaps to make a new keyboard mapping for X. Save it as something like /usr/X11/lib/keymaps/dvorak. Then in the user's ~/.xinitrc, add xmodmap /usr/X11/lib/keymaps/dvorak Xkeycaps gives you a picture of the keyboard and lets you change the keymappings around. It is available in the ports. Xmodmap comes with X. For the console, just do kbdcontrol -l /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.dvorak.kbd This works as long as the user is logged in on any one of the consoles, but changes the map for all of them. Substituting iso for dvorak switches it back, but I can't think of any good automatic way to know when to do that. --Neil On Mon, 26 Jan 1998, Randall Hopper wrote: > Jeffrey M.

Thanks for your = > time. startx is the command to start the "X server", whcih handles the graphical windowing environment. the ">&" redirects all output (both normal output and errors) to a file, called "startx.log" in this case. So whatever is going on (e.g., an error message), is being directed to this file and that is why you don't see anything. Best bet would be to type "more startx.log"! At some point you'll probably want to configure your X Server --use XF86Config to do this.

Is this correct? If so, why? Some old (broken) CDROMs report themselves incorrectly. If you are interested in working out what's wrong with the wfd driver, please drop me a line off the list and I can bring you up to speed. If you have the bits and some time it should be fairly straightforward. (It is trivial to retrofit the wfd driver into 2.2.5; see www.jp.freebsd.org/~junichi) -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 26 22:57:52 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA24255 for questions-outgoing; Mon, 26 Jan 1998 22:57:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f49.hotmail.com [207.82.250.60]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id WAA24248 for ; Mon, 26 Jan 1998 22:57:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mcwong@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 15559 invoked by uid 0); 27 Jan 1998 06:57:16 -0000 Message-ID: <19980127065716.15558.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 203.22.111.42 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Mon, 26 Jan 1998 22:57:15 PST X-Originating-IP: [203.22.111.42] From: "M.C Wong" To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Kde/kwm questions Content-Type: text/plain Date: Tue, 27 Jan 1998 17:57:15 EST Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk Hi, Does anyone know how to configure kwm to add program to start off at pop up menu etc like other windows manager (fvwm, twm etc) ?

If you installed it at system install time with sysconfig, simply run `xf86config', answer the questions, then run `startx'. If you didn't, then, well, it gets messy. You have to grab the correct chunks (and there are several) and install them with `tar xzf file.tgz' from /usr/X11R6. Sysinstall or the README file in the XF86311/ directory on the FTP site or CDROM should list the different component definitions about 2/3 down.
