If you will use a different HD to install FBSD - which I personally think to be a better idea - you won't have a problem, except for the fact that you won't be able to exchange files among platforms; But you can avoid this by leaving a DOS (pure old FAT) partition at your FBSD disk. This can be done at installation time, when you are defining FBSD's slices. Won't require too much expertise, IMHO. Now, if the case would be installing FBSD in the same disk, w/ Win98... oh, well... I do't know... Then you will have to make sure that fips will be able to partition it correctly. AFAIK, it is not that sophisticated right now, and you may have to use Norton's tools, i've heard.

The clients connection stops working and we can not ping the client. Once the computer has been restarted everything returns to normal until next time. The client logs in ok, and their username appears as being logged in .. but thats as far as it goes. This is becoming a big problem now, as we are getting more clients.

My Logitech Mouseman mouse is hooked up to a PS2 mouse port on my machine and FreeBSD does not see it. It works when I switch to com1, but I hate doing that since com1 is my modem port. Is there anything special that I need to do in order to have the PS2 mouse port working on FreeBSD? Secondly is there a shortcut to install ALL packages without going in and selecting everyone with the space bar? Thank you for your help. Srinivasan Iyengar.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok, I went to sleep with popper working perfectly fine, and I wake up today with it dying with the message: Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[432]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[428]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[423]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[431]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[425]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[419]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 (This is repeated a bunch of time for every connect attempt). Looking through the sources, this error is caused by a call to get getpeername failing, so I assume that the problem lies there. Hmm, error number 57 appears to be ENOTCONN, which is odd because I would have thought popper wouldn't even start without a connection (since it's being run from inetd). The really odd thing about this is nothing about the system has changed from last night when it was working fine. So far I've tried disabling named on the system, recompiling the same version of popper, and installing a more recent version of popper. As far as I can recall I haven't changed anything on this system before this for the last few weeks, so it seems really odd taht this problem would crop up mysteriously overnight. If anyone has any suggestions I'd really appreciate them, also if you could please cc it to gschrock@voyager.net, the volume of mail I get at my main email address makes it tough to look for responses with things like elm :).

The front end program uses popen() to create a pipe to the first program and gets the return code from pclose(). The program that is piped to uses exit() to return an error code other than 0 if a problem occurs. At first I thought I was getting garbage values returned but then I discovered that all the returned where multiplied by 256. If I divide the value returned by 256 I get one of the return codes I specified in my program but I'm afraid something may be wrong if I'm getting it back as a multiple of 256.

Unfortunately you didn't provide us with nearly enough information to even guess what the problem is. :) The first thing I would do is open two windows to the machine that the nameserver is on. You can do this at the console with virtual terminals or with X windows... whatever works for you. In one window I'd tail the log that named writes to. On a default system you'd do: tail -f /var/log/messages If you've moved your named log to a different location, use that filename instead. Next, I'd kill the nameserver and restart it. Then go to the other window and watch the messages you see in the log while the nameserver is starting. You should get some good hints as to what the problem is and where to look to solve it. If that doesn't fix you up and the zone file is short, post it to the list and I or someone will take a look at it and hopefully find your error. If you're not comfortable posting it to the list or it's very long, feel free to send it to me personally. DNS work is one of the things I do for a living, but if your problem is easy to see and fix (and most problems of this nature are, especially if it was working at one time) I won't charge you. If it's something that would take more time to fix than I'm comfortable with giving away I will contact you and we can negotiate terms. Finally, if you are doing serious DNS work where your time is valuable, I cannot recommend highly enough that you purchase the book "DNS and BIND, Second Edition" by Paul Albitz and Cricket Liu. It is published by O'Reilly and Associates and is THE book on DNS.

You want the one in /usr/X11R6/lib/.

DG already described the literal cause of the problem, the process table (which is predetermined when you compile your kernel) was full. The specific reason it happened at this time (after such a long uptime) was probably a mail bomb if your log snippet is any indication. I also agree that upgrading should be a high priority, at least in part since it seems like you're using this box for mail and getting a more secure version of sendmail should be a high priority, in addition to all the other stuff that's improved since way back then. :) If you need help with the upgrade, visit http://www.freebsd.org/docs.html and check out the upgrading from source tutorial.

The returned status contains additional information in the high order bits, the lowest 8 bits contain the return code. man wait for details, you may want to use the WEXITSTATUS(status) macro to get the return code.

If you have from 3 to 5 PeeCees that you intended to network at home 10Mbit/sec should do it; if you are commercial, you'll need 100Mb.

Once all the european countries are in the Euro we can replace the local currency, symbol keycode 243 in UK, with the Euro symbol and everything works out OK. National currencies will hopefully then cease to exist - despite our Euro-sceptics and the banks will be unable to fleece on every currency exchange.

I generally wander off for a cup of coffee when I'm doing a big Java compile, but for interactive stuff I have no complaints about the performance. Can't say the same about Win95 on my P150 laptop :( As someone else said, the main bottlenecks will be the ethernet and that video card. Maybe you can pick up a cheap VLB S3 card somewhere.

Hm, I have been under the impression that -current has the latest fixes to ppp. Guess I was wrong :) By the way, I cvsupped and rebuilt the world on Saturday, so I assumed that I was fairly up-to-date.

I have a choice of F1 [dos (Win95)] or F5 (2nd drive). After I choose I get a message that my boot sector is going to be modifiied. If I choose F5, I then get another prompt with the above plus F2 for FreeBSD followed by another warning that my boot sector is about to be modified. Should this be happening? During the install I chose to install the boot manager (apparently on both drives) and did not use any flags (such as make bootable) anywhere. My question: When installing Boot Easy, is it only necessary to put it on my original boot drive (wd0s1), and should I have made my FreeBSD slice bootable? Yes I have read all the installation references I could find, including the page on paritioning the disk. Thanks for any comments.

I can't get my network adapter card to work and I'm running out of places to check. Hope you can help. I have three computers. Two are running Windows variants, the third is now running FreeBSD. They're connected by Ethernet. All have generic (LinkSys) NE2000 compatible network adapters. >From the FreeBSD machine, if I run ping to another machine, I get this error ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down I'm not sure what "host" it's referring to, but the other two machines are up and on the network. I can ping from one to the other. Neither can ping the FreeBSD machine. The IP address for the FreeBSD machine is 10.0.0.4. An NT machine is 10.0.0.1 and a Win95 machine is 10.0.0.2. If I try to make the FreeBSD machine ping itself (ping 10.0.0.4) I get good results, the number of bytes returned, etc. The loopback test (ping 127.0.0.1) also works (I wonder if they're really doing the exact same thing, i.e. whether the loopback address gets converted to the host address before the ping starts). I believe that the machine is recognizing the network adapter. During bootup, I get ed0 at 0x300-0x31f irq 10 on isa ed0: address 00:40:05:3a:50:95, type NE2000 (16 bit) so it seems that FreeBSD is able to get the card's Ethernet address. Lines that look important in rc.conf are: hostname="FreeBie2" nisdomainname="NO" ... network_interfaces"ed0 lo0" ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" Does anything look blatantly wrong? What else can I check for errors/info? The gameplan for this machine, by the way, is to turn it into a router. I'll add a modem and hope to use that as the other network interface.

Ballantine" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I have a strange question about freebsd and potential "almost-broken" hardware. I have a NCR630 with an Adaptec AHA2490 and a 3COM etherlink III. I'm running NT and did have current on it. The other day I tried to reboot FreeBSD-current and the FB boot process hung, first before the disk checks and then after the disk checks with the SCSI disk light locked on. (Did this a few times.) I then decided to load 980311-SNAP and the system would hang when it tried to establish the default route to the router. (several times) At this point I rebooted the system to NT, and lo and behold the network card wasn't working. After a couple of reboots, it started working again and I had conductivity again. Anyway, wondering if the SNAP was a problem, I tried to load 2.2.6-RELEASE, and this load hung when it was trying to start the emergency shell. Also, the boot manager (osbsbeta) would stop working, and after I check on it, and found it ok, it would work again. So anyway my question is FreeBSD stressing something on the system that would detect "early" hardware problems that aren't found under NT?? And could the "locked" disk cause the network board to lock up and/or cause the bootmanager problem? Any insight is appreciated.

The installation program locks up running sysinstall. I have traced it down to a problem with sysinstall and my ZIP drive. The drive is an Iomega ZIP drive attached as the second device on my secondary IDE controller. If I unplug the ZIP drive, sysinstall will run fine but if the ZIP drive is attached, sysinstall appears to lock up during the "probing devices" step. Since I dual boot this machine into Windows NT (and I need the ZIP drive for my NT development work), permanently disconnecting the ZIP drive is not an option. I have tried making a custom kernal with the zip device removed, but this did not help either. Is there a way to make this drive work with FreeBSD? Or at least some way to keep sysinstall from locking up?

On 32M system digits is different (0M free RAM and about 60M free swap), but compiling aborts with the same message - "virtual memory exhausted". Next, I run GIMP and tried to load very large image.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! I am working on some specs for a machine I am going to build, and I have been unable to resolve the following 3 concerns. I would really appreciate some input from others who may have stumbled across similar issues. 1) The system will never be used for X or any other graphical application, I would like to keep costs down by using a very basic VGA card. Is there a major difference in system performance if I used a ISA card instead of a PCI card? Is there a minimum specification that should be observed? 2) When selecting RAM, does parity vs. non-parity memory affect the system in any way (stability, performance, etc.)? 3) What differnces exist between MMX and non-MMX CPU's of the same speed (with regards to FreeBSD)? Which is prefered? Thanks!

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG There is a web page up at http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Network/5601/ which is running a "OS Wars" vote. The idea is to generate some money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. You "vote" for your favorite OS by pledging some money. The current list of OS's include MacOS, OS/2, Windows, Linux, BeOS, JavaOS, and even AmigaOS (each represented by their own icon, with a URL pointer to the "home" for that operating system.). There's one additional catagory for "UNIX"... I thought "Well, if Linux is there then I'd be happy to donate a few "votes" to see FreeBSD in the list too". And thus, my question. Is there someone who needs to approve putting up the FreeBSD icon on a web page such as this one? I thought I remembered a web page which showed various FreeBSD icons fit for web pages, but in a quick look thru www.freebsd.org I couldn't find it. And then I got to thinking, maybe I'm supposed to get advance approval for something like this anwyay. So, I'm not requesting that anyone here donate money, but if I'm willing to donate some money then what icon would be the best one to use for that page, assuming no one objects to it's usage? --- Garance Alistair Drosehn Senior Systems Programmer Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 27 15:29:56 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA26261 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 15:29:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from grizzly.fas.com (chs0263.awod.com [208.140.97.23]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA26223 for ; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 15:29:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from stanb@awod.com) Message-Id: <199804272229.PAA26223@hub.freebsd.org> Received: by grizzly.fas.com ($Revision: 1.37.109.23 $/16.2) id AA060926169; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 18:29:29 -0400 Subject: ppp and routeing table help, please.

I have a home network that is happily working and gatewayed to the internet using a FreeBSD machine and ppp. This machine of course is the default gateway for all of the boxes on this network. I have another box on this network that I can dial inot and start ppp. I do ths from a FreebSDS lpatop. This works great and I can access all of my home network, and on out to the world like this.

I have the laptop configures so that it becomes an active member of the work network, and then I can still dial out from it to my home network.

Ah, the version in -current is essentially the same :-/ I've been doing a lot of work recently on ppp in the MP branch. It's getting to a reasonable stable state now, but I noticed lots of stuff while I was there - the select() stuff is quite different now, and the -current version leaves lots of room for errors (it's possible for example that the modem file descriptor is closed after it's added to the FD_SET and before the select() is done - producing the sort of error you mentioned). It won't be long now before the MP branch stuff gets rolled back into -current - I think it works client-side, but I can't test 'till I get it working server-side :-) I would have though the best way to do the client-side dial back is to have a ppp.linkup that says annex: quit all That way, once authentication is complete, ppp quits. This works in the MP branch, but I suspect the command may be ignored in the -current version :-( You could always do a quick fix to the QuitCommand() function in command.c.... > Thanks for your help! > > Cheers, > -- > Jos Backus _/ _/_/_/ "Reliability means never > _/ _/ _/ having to say you're sorry." > _/ _/_/_/ -- D.

In another thread, someone reports that the user guide recommends locating /tmp and /var on /usr. I believe I've seen recommendations to supply users' home directories in the /usr partition, too. (The default installation script sets you up without a /home partition.) What's the rationale for this? Isn't readonly /usr (and /, if possible) a Good Thing anymore?

Unfortunately, I have some people getting ahold of some inappropriate material and I'm wondering if there's any way to get an ip address.

I believe it depends on the settings. I've been able to take a drive from a 2940 and use it on a 1540 successfully, so I'd imagine it's possible to go the other direction. Obviously, you might have problems if the controllers are configured differently, but that is true even if you swap out the same model. Look for settings like the >1GB translation setting, and see if changing them has any effect.

You may have to place /tmp or /var on user if you have a prexisting file system that starts running out of space. By default /var partition is mounted on /var and /tmp directory is mounted on /. Different unices do things differently as far as the hierarchy go. /usr is only writable by root by default. Root owns /usr by default. If I was insistent on adding a directory under /usr and I was root. I would not want to be bothered by a perms issue. That is to say, I think /usr being writable by root and root only is sane. Feel free to change it if your philosophy differs. By default /home is linked to /usr/home to provide compatibilty with other unix hierarchies. if you think there should be a seperate /home partition and file system, feel free to make one. I am of a mind that user land things go in /usr but I was weaned on FreeBSD so it is not unfamiliar to me. As a side note, IRIX puts home directories in /usr/people by default. Unix flavors abound. The core developers had to pick one way of doing things. This is the way that they chose. It does not prevent you from using your own experience to configure your system.
