This will, I think, leave enough space in /usr for a fair number of ports, and kernel and "world" sources and objects, and for X. Just taking the defaults works fairly well.

OK, first set up the new disk, most easily by using sysinstall's slice/partition editors. For the sake of illustration, I'll assume the old disk is wd0 and the new one, wd1. (Just start sysinstall from /stand/sysinstall and pick "index" and go to partition editor). After that, run newfs over the new disk's partitions: newfs wd1s1a newfs wd1s1d newfs wd1s1e ... whatever you have. Maybe sysinstall did it already. Now we do the fun: Assume that you have partitions wd0s1a on / wd0s1d on /var and wd0s1e on /usr. mount wd1s1a /mnt cd / tar cplf - . | ( cd /mnt; tar xvpf - ) umount /mnt mount wd1s1d /mnt cd /var tar cplf - . | (cd /mnt; tar xvpf - ) umount /mnt mount wd1s1e /mnt cd /usr tar cplf - . | ( cd /mnt; tar xvpf - ) umout /mnt cd All done. This is the "Method of the Ancient Ones" What you're doing is making a tar archive on standard output, then piping that to a subshell that untars it. It's fairly efficient. There's a way to do it with a single pass, but it would look hairy the first time. Somebody else will tell you to use cp -R but that's newfangled and I have been bitten by it. There's a way with cpio, too, but it has a way of hosing things. My things, anyway. Someone will chime in with dump/restore, but that's snake oil. (I don't understand it, in other words). The tar-with-pipe thing is pretty versatile for all kinds of tree copying, and does the Right Thing with symlinks, hard links, devices, permissions, ownerships and dates. Now, if you're going to boot off that disk, remount wd1s1a on /mnt, and edit /mnt/etc/fstab to get the new device names in there. Now you'll ask me about booteasy. I dunno... dave -- Su accion letal comienza en pocas horas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 30 01:24:57 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA26607 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 30 Aug 1998 01:24:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA26566 for ; Sun, 30 Aug 1998 01:24:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id RAA18300; Sun, 30 Aug 1998 17:53:56 +0930 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id RAA00807; Sun, 30 Aug 1998 17:53:55 +0930 (CST) Message-ID: <19980830175355.C606@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Sun, 30 Aug 1998 17:53:55 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: djv@bedford.net, Michael Gabriel Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: stumped at install References: <19980830055904.28307.qmail@hotmail.com> <199808300654.CAA29333@lucy.bedford.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <199808300654.CAA29333@lucy.bedford.net>; from CyberPeasant on Sun, Aug 30, 1998 at 02:54:01AM -0400 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sunday, 30 August 1998 at 2:54:01 -0400, CyberPeasant wrote: > Michael Gabriel wrote: >> I have recently acquired a copy of Freebsd 2.26.

Why? You've specified too many file systems already. Without knowing what he wants to use the machine for (or even how big his disk partition is), you can't recommend anything, though a guess at the swap size is reasonable. I can't think of an earthy reason for a separate /tmp file system.

Every thing works fine apart from one thing....... Whenever I do 'make' either to build a port or rebuid the kernal, at some point through compilation the machine will crash with something like this message: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernal mode fault virtual address = 0x8:573c418 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xf01ba1f7 stack pointer = 0x10:0xefbff9fc frame pointer = 0x10:0xefbffa00 code segment = base 0x0, linit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres1, def 321, gran 1 processor eflags = interupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = 467(ccl) interupt mask = panic: page fault syncing disks...... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I get the impression that its trying to reboot, but it dosn't, at this point I have to do a hard reboot. It dosn't happen every time (I managed to port xemacs on the fifth attempt) and its never at the same point, but its only when I run 'make'. As you can imagine this is ***really*** annoying. Does anyone know why this is happening or (preferably) how to correct the problem?

You've specified too many file systems already. Without knowing => > what he wants to use the machine for (or even how big his disk => > partition is), you can't recommend anything, though a guess at the You got a good variety of responses, and I had not thought of approaching an install such as Greg had suggested but it sounds prudent (of course he did right the book :) ). By making only one filesystem you don't risk ending up with to much space in `/' and `var', and not enough space in `/usr'. I have always used the Auto settings in the novice install and then used those as a guide to setting my filesystem sizes. It may work for you. I will definately keep Gregs suggestion in mind on future minimum installs. Hope this helps. Regards, Kevin G.

Some packets are transmitted from here to freefall and from freefall to here, then nothing: the local network stack seem to ignore incoming packets from freefall then tries again and again to get freefall's ack.

I'm trying to create a web site for all free un*x users. Whether they be FreeBSDers, Linuxers, NetBSDers, OpenBSDers, or any un*x users at all. I'm thinking of something kinda like slashdot.org or freshmeat.net but not as Linux centric. Something that all un*x users/operators can enjoy just just Linux users can enjoy. Now, this is going to be no easy task, so I'm looking for people to help. I really need people that can make kick ass web pages, kick ass graphics, and write stories/articles. I also need people that seem to get the inside scoop quickly. Also, any developers who may care to share upcoming events/releases/etc... If you would like to help out, please respond to this message with your name, e-mail address, and what you would like to do to help. I would like to get this rolling pretty soon, so please get in touch if you are interested, or forward to people you think may be interested.

You could easily work up a quick hack to do it, however, it's not really a great idea. For that to work, you would need to store your password somewhere in the filesystem, where it would be available for all to see.

I browsed through /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sound/sound.doc but that did not help much because I am not so much of a soundcard knowledge boy. What I would love to have is just a little piece of hardware that runs ;), that plays some MP3s without slowing down my machine up to uselessness, and that has two nice chinch connectors so that I can connect it to my stereo. Is ISA really the only choice? I wouldn't mind a PCI card but I am running out of PCI slots. Are there any SCSI sound cards out there?

I did not keep the email, therefore this new thread. I just figured out a procedure that works for me. It's a combination of tosha, sox, and 8hz-mp3. I set up three little zsh commands which look as follows: # cd2raw cd2raw () { command tosha -v -t $1 -o $2$1.raw } # raw2wav raw2wav () { command sox -V -t raw -r 44100 -w -s -c 2 $1.raw -t wav $1.wav } # wav2mp3 wav2mp3 () { command 8hz-mp3 $1.wav $1.mp3 } tosha only works with SCSI CD-Rom drives, so this won't work for IDE ones. But maybe this helps someone besides me, too. BTW: On my machine 8hz-mp3 needs only about 24 minutes to encode a 4:40 min song. MPegEnc (or something similar) for Windows takes about twice that much. ;) Have fun.

All seems to install correctly given my limited knowledge of this software. I receive no errors. On exit of install and reboot( having requested booteasy) I receive a menu showing F1 . . . dos Default ? System will boot into Win95 if I press F1. Do not understand why no entry for FreeBSD. I've checked on your FAQ pages and noted comments from the hardware guide in relation to "geometry". Ran pfdisk.exe on all my drives to ensure the data is correct. Tried re-installing from scratch but always have the same problem. My system has the following disk set-up 2 x eide master and slave on port 1. SCSI adaptec 2940au 3 x 1.37 GB disks 1 x .630 GB disk for FreeBSD As stated geometry was set on the disk allocated for FreeBSD as per the checks carried out using pfdisk. When going through the install procedure I flag the first ide drive as my "boot" disk at the bootmanager screen select booteasy, then select sd3 as the disk for FreeBSD, allow sytem to set-up using "A" then "Q" and select booteasy then continue, allow the program to set the required partitions automatically. I do not know what i'm doing wrong if anything. Also unable to clear the boot menu if required when normally booting into Win95. Any help gratefully received.

I've rebuilt X from source and remade world but >neither solved the problem. Any tips/suggestions? I doubt this is a mouse problem. How do you handle .Xresources? Do you merge them? Your X inititialization file should have an entry... xrdb -merge .Xresources ... or something similar depending on how you have your Xwindows initialized. If you use xrdb -load (the default for xrdb) then all of your Netscape defined application defaults will be overwritten for that X session. I do not know for sure if this will solve your problem. I am guessing that you are wiping out some Xresources.

Well, it's off topic for -questions (except that -questions is a catchall for any message for which you can't find a better list), but it's probably interesting for a couple of other groups: FreeBSD advocacy and the BSD Ezine.

You should know in particular about the BSD Ezine, the first issue of which will be coming out Real Soon Now. Also, the people in -advocacy are doing this sort of thing, and you should know about http://www.opensource.org/. You probably want a lot of discussion about *what* you want to do before you get started.

What do you mean by "Unix"? FreeBSD *is* UNIX, at least technically. FreeBSD can execute binaries for Linux, SCO UNIX (ibcs2 COFF standard) and BSD/OS. Support has just been announced for SCO UnixWare (ELF). Is there something else you want to execute?

If by "collect" you mean downloading with POP, you need a program like qpopper to do that. But the real way is to use sendmail. In any case, if you use mutt, you don't use Netscape or NT.

Use UserConfig to enable it, or build a new kernel with it enabled. Make sure you get the IRQs right.

If `ldconfig -r' doesn't display your libraries, you'll have to add them in with `ldconfig -m /usr/X11R6/lib'. Check out ldconfig(1) for more details.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My system is a P166 with a Buslogic Flashpoint LT PCI SCSI adapter at 0xFC00, and a Plexrot 6Plex CD-ROM at ID 2, a Conner 2 GB Wide SCSI drive at ID 0. I can boot from the floppy or cd, and do a kernel config in CLI or visual mode, but when it starts probing devices, I do not see bt0 (the ISA Buslogic device name, PCI too?) being probed anywhere, and when I try to select my install media, it says CD-ROM drive not found. When I just try to do any type of install, it days no HD found when it tries to launch fdisk. The only thing I could think of is that during the boot after the kernel config, it sees a pci device (17) and assigns it irq 15 (it shouldn't, that is normally for my promise UDMA controller that I removed for the install) and says [no driver assigned]. This has been frustrating me for several days now. thanks in advance for the help.

No. I'm saying use FreeBSD and mutt, not NT and Netscape. I don't use Microsoft, and I'm not qualified to tell you how you can do things with Microsoft (if it's even possible). I'm also saying I don't understand what you're saying, and I asked a number of questions.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I tried upgrading a machine at work from 2.2.2R to 2.2.7R Friday night, and ran into a problem I've not encountered before with this upgrade. The machine is one of two servers we use for dialup. Each server has two 16 port boca board on a shared irq. Under 2.2.2R this has ran fine for about a year, with no problems at all aside from an occasional silo buffer overflow. Tonight however, when I booted with the kernel configured to support the boca's I got a strange error, like this : sio1: configured irq 10 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0x10 I'm able to access the modems and dial out, although they respond very sluggishly and don't always flush their buffers properly. They are useless for dialin, which is what we use them for. I've tried changing irqs and flags but after 12 or 13 kernels, decided to try here. Does anyone have a clue about this error?

I just setup dialin ppp using user-ppp from 8/29/1998. In order to get it to work with user ``ppp'' I had to add the following line to the default: header: allow user ppp If I added it to the sub-header ppp:, I would get an error saying I could not run ppp as this user in direct mode. I was under the impression that each allow user[s] command precluded the first. Why, then, did this not work? Also, if I had the global allow user, and a sub-header allow user, it still would not work. Is there something I am missing? I think I followed the directions pretty well. Thanks.

I would like to set up some filters to allow/deny access from each of these machines. Everyone needs eMail and DNS (for looking mailhost names), some people need telnet and ftp and others get full access. The filtering for userland ppp only allows for 19 rules, do I need to use the built in ipfw functionality of bsd or do I not understand the filter of userland ppp correctly. If I switch to ipfw, does it check the IP address before aliasing and what about incoming/returning data.

One common form is for a hard disk to fail so that the system won't boot. File systems and data on the hard disk remain intact, the system just won't boot. What I'd like to do is to have a bootable floppy to handle that contingency. The bootable floppy would have a root file system, /var and /usr directories where I could mount the corresponding file systems on the hard disk, and (of course) the necessary drivers in /dev so that those file systems could be mounted. The idea is that, in an emergency, I would be able to boot from the floppy, and mount the /var and /usr file systems on the hard drive so that the system could be returned to operation. Repair of the hard drive could then be deferred to off hours. The problem is that I don't know the best way to do this. I'm thinking that possibly somehow modifying a fixit floppy might be the way to go; but, I don't know. I'm wondering what others might think. Any input is greatly appreciated.

You'll have to upgrade your sources to 3.0-CURRENT, and go from there, although this is not a thing to do lightly. You could always wait until 3.0-RELEASE, which is to be released on the 15th of October. This way you don't risk messing something up, and having to follow the FreeBSD-Current mailing list for little glitches (although there aren't that many really) You can find more information on how to do this in the handbook, specifically current.html (ie, http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current.html, if you haven't got a closer version of the handbook) Neil -- Neil Blakey-Milner nbm@rucus.ru.ac.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 31 00:31:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA07087 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 00:31:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gwdu60.gwdg.de (gwdu60.gwdg.de [134.76.10.60]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA07082 for ; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 00:31:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de) Received: from localhost (kheuer@localhost) by gwdu60.gwdg.de (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id JAA19321; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 09:30:30 +0200 (CEST) Date: Mon, 31 Aug 1998 09:30:30 +0200 (CEST) From: Konrad Heuer To: "jon r. luini" cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Slow FTP between freebsd 2.2.6 and Sunos 4.1.3 In-Reply-To: <19980830061206.24934.qmail@klinzhai.evolve.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, 29 Aug 1998, jon r. luini wrote: > I'm experiencing very slow ftp between these two systems, who > are on the same local network.

I observed a significantly slow rate between a FreeBSD box and a Sun (Solaris 2.5), too. I additionally installed Linux on the FreeBSD box and got a much better rate. On the other hand, FreeBSD did better than Linux in FTP transfer with a Digital UNIX workstation. As far as I understand TCP (my knowledge could and should go deeper) there's some negotiation of window sizes and timing and so on after opening a connection. So there may be chance for an unlucky bad rate between two systems.

Both my kernel and userland are -STABLE as of Friday 28 August. I've used gdb to have a look, and the problem is definitely that ioctl() doesn't understand either KDSETRAD as a request, or doesn't like the rate structure that kbdcontrol's set_keyrates() passes to it as argp. Unfortunately, I get a little lost when I try to step into the ioctl() code. I would really appreciate any help in debugging this problem. Even finding the code for ioctl() would be a start, at this point!

What line must i add to /etc/rc.conf file to enable multiple network card gatewaying through one machine. I currently have : ifconfig_ed0 = "inet 168.142.1.1 168.142.1.2" ..so that this gateway machine is the 1.1, and the 1.2 is my workstation. But I have now third computer which i would like to add to the network, so what line must i put there to enable both of them. I've tried ifconfig_ed0 = "inet 168.142.1.1 168.142.1.3" and many other variations, but the only result i get is that first machine, 1.2 can telnet to the 1.1 machine and can use it as a gateway, but the third machine 1.3 won't connect no matter what i do. The windows configurations are ok. checked many times and are similar to the working machine except the ip number. The message FreeBSD gives me when i try to connect via telnet is : ff.ff.ff.ff.ff.ff changed to 3d.25.33.11 or something incoherent. All the machines have netmask 255.255.255.0 The point is that no matter when machine has the 1.2 address works, but from there on they won't. They only say when you try to connect : Could not open connection to 168.142.1.1 (when the usual windows message is Connection failed : 168.142.1.1), so it finds the machine but it won't let it connect.

I can use it to copy between machines at different local networks, but I cannot seem to get it to work with two machines on my university's local network. Both machines are pentiums running 2.2.7R. I think that the .rhosts files are correct because I can rsh, rlogin and rcp to my heart's content. When I try to rsync using the latest version of rsync (2.1.0) from the ports collection, I get the following error: unexpected EOF in read_timeout rsync works as expected for transfers on the same machine.

If you are, you may have a stale NFS handle in the directory, something eqivalent ot .***NFS or something like it.

I understand ``a'' is the root partition, ``b'' the swap partition, and ``c'' the entire disk. After that, d/e/f/g/h sort of go every which way, with no particular rhyme or reason. ``g'' is often used for the remaining /usr partition, but there does not seem to be much clear reasoning as to why. I would like to understand that rhyme and reason. Also, what is the convention of fs splitting between drives? The table in the 4.4SMM (sec. 2.5.2) suggests some possiblities, but is there any other rationale behind the choices? How things might be affected loadwise on singleuser workstations vs heavy servers, is probably very different. I would like to understand more of the reasoning of these conventions.

Absent the trailing ampersand ("&"), the shell forks the command, then waits for it to return, then processes the next line. (That said, it's possible for the command in question to also fork other processes, and whether or not all of them have terminated before the process the shell forks terminates depends on how they are implemented.) >so are they run sequentially and do they wait to complete before >executing the next line ?? They wait. >i have seen people put && after an executable what is it for? That's normally done in a sequence, such as rm -fr foo && mkdir foo which says "recursively remove foo (and everything in it, if it's a directory); then, if that worked OK, create a (new) "foo" directory. The "&&" is the "logical AND" operator, which is evaluated in a "short circuit" form (as it is in C and Perl): if the return from the first command indicates that it ran successfully, then go ahead and execute the right-hand command. When I make a new kernel, and it's merely a small change (and when I have other things to do as well -- the usual case), I'll generally do cd /sys/i386/conf sudo co -l KERNEL sudo vi !$ sudo ci -u !$ sudo config !$ cd ../../compile/!$ sudo make depend && sudo make && sudo make install && sudo reboot if it's on a machine that isn't otherwise in use (such as one I'm setting up for someone else). david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 31 10:12:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA20648 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 10:12:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pau-amma.whistle.com (s205m64.whistle.com [207.76.205.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA20632 for ; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 10:12:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw@whistle.com) Received: (from dhw@localhost) by pau-amma.whistle.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id KAA21770; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 10:10:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw) Date: Mon, 31 Aug 1998 10:10:20 -0700 (PDT) From: David Wolfskill Message-Id: <199808311710.KAA21770@pau-amma.whistle.com> To: avarela@avlnet.ml.org Subject: Re: new machine config Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >Date: Fri, 28 Aug 1998 20:22:45 -0600 (MDT) >From: Antonio Varela Lizardi > I'm one of the newest kids in town.

Yep, this will work. It'll probably take a long time to upgrade the first time, but it will work. (I mean, I assume it will, cvsup'ing your sources is one of the reasons FreeBSD is brilliant, and you can cvsup from 2.2.* to 3.0-CURRENT, and that's just the way cvsup and such systems work.

I appreciate your sentiments, but he did explain what he wanted to do. He wants to load a FreeBSD kernel from a DOS environment. (That's what loadlin.exe does for Linux.)

Thanks! I don't know about binary versions, but you can get kaffe from /usr/ports/lang/kaffe.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As an update to my previous message, while attempting to install yet again today, after setting the device bt0 to port 0xfc00, and continuing with the install, I saw that while probing PCI devices it reported "bt0 not found at 0xfc00". Could the BIOS need upgrading before FBSD will recognize it? Or is there some other problem likely? IS the device bt0 correct to use? That is on the isa bus in the config file, my card is a PCI card, does the kernel support a Flashpoint LT 930 on the PCI bus? My SCSI adapter isat ID 7 amd the other things on the chain are all terminated properly. Thanks again for the help.

Right now its using the default port (23) > and I would like to change that to another port number for more security. Firstly, go install /usr/ports/security/tcp_wrappers, if you want to use hosts.allow and hosts.deny. If you've used tcp wrappers before, it should be a cinch. Look at the hosts_access, tcpd, hosts_options man pages once you've install the port. You may want to update your ports collection before you do this, if you're not running a reasonably new release (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cvsup.html). To add a telnet daemon on another port, add an entry for the new port in /etc/services (man services for help), and then copy the existing telnet entry in /etc/inetd.conf (man inetd.conf for help) If you want more security, install the ssh port (/usr/ports/security/ssh). This port will encrypt traffic when you use the ssh client to connect to a ssh server.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello. I have been running linux for quite some time, and recently I have been convinced that I should run FreeBSD. But I was shocked to find out that the boot.flp doesnt support the Adaptec AIC-7895. I am by no means currently capable of writing device drivers, and wondered if there were plans for support for this any time soon.

I am pretty new to FreeBSD. My futher questions would be : 1) Anyone has tried how much update that is required from 2.2.6 to 2.2.7 ? 2) Say I have update my kernel-source to 2.2.7 can i gzip/tar it, so when i reinstall with 2.2.6 later on, and i want to use 2.2.7 kernel I just need to ungzip/untar, no need to connect to internet again ? 3) Which parts minimum should i update beside sys-src and bindist ? how big they usually are ? 4) How fast the CVS server ? can they do up to 3 kb/s ( 33,6 kbps modem ) 5) If I decide to d/l the 2.2.7's src-sys ( kernel source ) can i just delete the src-sys from 2.2.6 and replace them directly with 2.2.7 ? 6) Lastly, Why does kernel update need binary update too ? which binary we need ? sbin, usr/sbin, usr/bin, or bin Pardon for my ignorance, I am new and i have read the docs and even the Complete FreeBSD book.

Am I wrong? You are correct, it won't work because IBM only designed the PC-AT to support two IDE subsystems with two devices each. If you really need more disk drives or cdroms, etc., get SCSI.

In fact, slice 'a' is pretty much the same except on the first disk, and 'b' is just a convention. The only slice the system knows about and gives special treatment to is 'c'. Having said that, 'd' used to imply the whole Microsoft partition, so FreeBSD used to (maybe still does?) start allocating additional slices with slice 'e'. BSD/OS started at 'h' and worked backwards. None of this is so important, though. > Also, what is the convention of fs splitting between drives?

The text in SMM goes into more detail: the main concern is to balance the load between the disks. When this was written, a big disk was 1 GB. Now you can't get anything that small any more, and the rules have changed. Most people only have one disk, mainly 2. Under those circumstances, you probably want as few slices as possible. I have always recommended one file system per disk, with the exception of the system disk, which can contain a root file system as well as the /usr file system (and swap space). Others disagree and bring forward arguments for a /var file system, but that only makes sense if you're going to try to make /usr read-only, which almost nobody does.

There are some little switches on the bottom and I've got a PDF manual indicating which way to switch them for this or that UNIX version. Naturally there is no indication if any particular setting is desirable under FreeBSD 2.2.7. So, does anyone else have one of these and can you offer any advise on these "unix compatibility" switches.

This is a catch-22 sitution. I was lucky enough to be given 2.2.5 disks. However, I do believe that creating a boot floppy will give you everything you need. I assume you have web access. Have you been to the FreeBSD handbook? You don't need to have FreeBSD installed in order to download FreeBSD from the FTP site. Start at http://www.au.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/handbook/handbook7.html and I think you'll find that Step 3 is where you get the boot floppy image. >From there, it should be straight forward. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - my [mis]adventures http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 31 18:04:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA18670 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 18:04:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu (jaguar.ir.miami.edu [129.171.32.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA18651 for ; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 18:04:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marcus@miami.edu) Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu ("port 2822"@jaguar.ir.miami.edu) by jaguar.ir.miami.edu (PMDF V5.1-10 #24029) with SMTP id <0EYK006OUYXX78@jaguar.ir.miami.edu> for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 21:03:33 -0400 (EDT) Date: Mon, 31 Aug 1998 21:03:33 -0400 (EDT) From: "Joe \"Marcus\" Clarke" Subject: Re: Latest user-ppp... bug?

I belive that Donald is asking how to automate PGP decryption under FreeBSD, probably as the messages are locally delivered, with the end result being decrypted messages sitting in his spool such that when he uses Netscape under NT, the messages are cleartext without any further intervention. It sounds to me like he needs to install procmail and/or pipe through a shell script that has his PGP password embedded in it. Which, of course, reduces the value of PGP to providing only transmission security, and exposes his password (and thus PGP identity) to anyone who can gain access to the script doing the work. The other issue, unaddressed, is that it almost sounds like Donald is hosting the web site with the mailto form that encrypts on the same machine that the messages are being delivered to, which would make encrypting them in the first place a silly thing to do, but I could be misunderstanding here. -j To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 31 18:33:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA22961 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 18:33:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ccs.sogang.ac.kr (ccs.sogang.ac.kr [163.239.1.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA22944 for ; Mon, 31 Aug 1998 18:33:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from s198322@ccs.sogang.ac.kr) Received: from oslab0.sogang.ac.kr by ccs.sogang.ac.kr (8.8.8/Sogang) id KAA12128; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 10:30:16 +0900 (KST) Received: from ccs.sogang.ac.kr by oslab0.sogang.ac.kr (8.8.8/SMI-SVR4) id KAA28499; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 10:24:19 +0900 (KST) Message-ID: <35EAECFC.193A17E8@ccs.sogang.ac.kr> Date: Tue, 01 Sep 1998 03:35:40 +0900 From: Choi Young Jin Organization: Sogang Uni.

(2.2.5) Yes. You have to either load a kernel module or build a static kernel with Linux support. Just having the libraries is not enough.

George, a few points: Firstly, you posted to freebsd-doc, but you would be better off mailing freebsd-questions, where there are lots of people who can assist you with your installation questions. I have forwarded the e-mail on to freebsd-questions for you. Can I clarify what you are attempting to do? You have downloaded all (or part of) FreeBSD, and you are trying to install it from floppies. Is this correct? You might find it easier to install from a DOS partition instead of floppies. The installation document that you can find in the root directory of the FreeBSD 2.2.7 release explains how to do this. This will certainly be easier that using lots of floppies! Another alternative is to buy FreeBSD on CD-ROM. You can buy the 4 CD-ROM set from Walnut Creek (http://www.cdrom.com) or a cheap ($1.99?) basic CD-ROM release from CheapBytes (http://www.cheapbytes.com). Can you provide us with some more information: 1. What version of FreeBSD are you trying to install? 2.2.7? 3.0? 2. What parts of FreeBSD are you trying to install? Just the bin/ directory? Or the entire release? (That would be a *lot* of floppies!) > I would be using FreeBSD now if I could install a free copy. I won't be > using FreeBSD only because I can't.

It is true that some people find FreeBSD to be more difficult to install than Windows95, but many people find exactly the opposite! It often comes down to the combination of hardware that you have.

You boot with the >boot.flp and then go into repair mode with the fixit.flp. Thanks, Jason. I thought it might be the case that the fixit floppy could be used without modification. That's why I asked the question. I know how to get into repair mode with the fixit floppy. What I don't understand is how I can mount the /var and /usr file systems on /var and /usr (respectively) of the floppy. The first problem is that I don't have the right drivers available (wd0s2e for /var and wd0s2f for /usr). Secondly, I'm a bit concerned about covering up (with the mount) what's already available in the /var and /usr directories on the floppy. If anyone can square me away on these points, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. ... doug _____________________________________________________________________ Doug Jolley mailto://doug@footech.com http://www.footech.com Don't bogart that file, my friend.

I think it is a backup root login with a simple sh. so incase you were unable to login as root due to say a corrupt shell, you can use toor to login to a simple shell. I do not know how to activate the account. I cannot seem to use passwd on it or login using the root passwd.

I went to Fry's Electronics in Fountain Valley, Ca and looked for a compatible ethernet card for my Unix box. I didn't find anything that was on the ethernet hardware list. :( I found a bunch of LynkSys and D-Link card for reasonable prices. I also found some NetGear cards and others as well. Not a single one of them did I find any jumpers or anything on them. I'm afraid of using PnP hardware with FreeBSD. One of the Lynksys cards that I saw was Linux compatible, and I'm wondering it might be FreeBSD compatible as well. Too bad I don't have the model number handy. :( Finding NE2000 or NE2100 compatible boards have been a pain in the ass as well. I have been recomended the Intel ethernet cards but they are way out of my price band. I don't want to spend over 40 dollars, hopefully I'll get a card for about 20 bucks. Anyone know of which 20 dollar card will work without much fuss? Also, I'd like to hear more info about using FreeBSD as a gateway on a cable modem connection. I too would like to know if I'd need two ethernet cards, and how would I even run two cards? Would I need to get two PCI cards? I hear that I can set the IRQ's via the BIOS if it's PCI, but I've never had to do any BIOS fiddling so I have no clue on how to do that. Well, thanks in advance. :) Joey Bear Garcia At 09:46 PM 8/31/98 -0400, you wrote: >Ok, in some week I will have modem cable(motorola's cybersurfr).

One of the Lynksys cards that I saw was Linux compatible, You're not going to find a new network card that is not PNP these days. I spent the extra money and bought kingston PCI network cards. They've all run great, installed with no problems at all. FYI, you don't need to have the PNP driver for them at all, just use the de0 driver. > Finding NE2000 or NE2100 compatible boards have been a pain in the ass as > well. I have been recomended the Intel ethernet cards but they are way out Kingstons are 100% NE2000 compatible. I've used the under Novell, Linux, Windows versions 95 all the way up to Nt4.0 with no problems. You can find them between $30-$50. I personally don't like the Intel cards, I've experienced them as being a bit tempermental personally. > cards, and how would I even run two cards? Would I need to get two PCI > cards?

All you might have to do is use the setup disk for the network card to change it's IRQ and Address. You don't want to play with the BIOS unless you REALLY know what you're doing...

Two controllers are as usually on the motherboard and third controller was found on the Gravis Ultrasound PnP soundcard. BTW, you must have third controller with separate irq and i/o addresses from the others. Also, take a look at the /usr/src/sys/i386/isa.h file.

Content-Type: text/plain Date: Tue, 01 Sep 1998 00:34:42 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all: I am running a script to simulate login to webserver using a software call webcopy (written in Perl). The script will call the webcopy and put it to background. And this will continue for 1000 users. I found out that, it will stop at around 280 users. Then the error message, cannot fork will appear. As a workaround, I tried to run it over 200 users and put a wait command after 200, then run 200 again , wait, run 200 again. I found out that, there after running the first 200 users, it will pending for nothing. When I do a ps, I found out there are always a few processes never finished. I am not sure whether this is related to Perl and memory leak problem. But somehow it is coincidence with the problem describe below. Any clues??

This is FreeBSD 2.2.6. When I first built a kernel to support this card I enabled the PnP controller, but it could not find (or recognize) the card. After searching the documentation I found the chipset. :) I'm not knowledgeable about sound cards, so I'll just quote the docs: "Crystal Semiconductor CS4232, Yamaha OPL3 (YMF262), and Yamaha D/A converter (YAC512) compabible with Windows Sound System and Soundblaster Pro". OK then, I configured with the flags set at 0x11 and I got the same result faster than when the flags were set at 0x0. However, things were stable with the flags set at 0x13 for an hour or so but eventually this failed too with the same error message. I did not include an additional error message in my first note so here it is: /kernel :timeoute flushing dbuf_out.chan cnt 0xff00 flags 0x000002c1 Also, I cannot seem to transmit audio using vat with this card configuration and the input volume control doesn't affect anything. Is it the card or is it vat? One more thing - the volume level from this card is very low, I used xmix to up the dsp level to the max and turned the volume of my speakers way up to get an acceptable volume.

(Easier than win9x, for sure). I don't know what you have done so far, but make sure that you assign a IP address to the Mac and note that in /etc/hosts (unless you are using DHCP). In the TCP/IP control panel, set "Connect via:" to Ethernet, "Configure" to Manually, "IP address" to your assigned IP, "Subnet mask" to your subnet. The "Router" address is the IP address of the FreeBSD box, and then "Name server addr" to your DNS addresses. Typically you use "fake" IP addresses for your internal network, since you are -aliasing. I use the 192.168.1.x range, but that is my choice. See /etc/hosts.conf for a more complete listing of availible IPs. Then it should work fine.

Then, I thought - I like the BSD product, I'll install it on the server at work, install was ok. Without touching the machine, I tried to run /stand/sysinstall, it runs, then crashes when I select 'Post-Install'-'Packages' as soon as it gets the INDEX from ftp.freebsd.org, it crashes out: sysintall: exited in signal 10 dumped core (bus error). Or something similar like that, I'm not sure why sysinstall doesn't crash at home but instead at work? The machine at work: P200, 32meg's of ram. Any comments would be very helpful thanks :) Quintin.

I have been saved several times by having another superuser account when the root account's default shell was corrupted, removed by a crash. the command 'passwd [-l] toor' will set password, and toor has the same restrictions as the root account, a person can only login into that account from a secure console. sudo is the better everyday way of doing superuser commands. next preferable, if you need a superuser shell use su. The downside of having a toor account is one more superuser account that could be broken into. for that reason, I set the toor password by using `vipw' and copying the encrypted password from the root account into the toor account. duplicate the root line, change the "root" account name to "toor" and change the shell. --mark.

Here's the deal.. I'm running 2.2.5-RELEASE, and recently the box has been hacked. I've managed to block out the attackers using ipfw and tcp wrappers, but after reading some stuff on CERT's site, I started checking the files on the machine in question with another machine and found some differences.. here they are.. **** ls **** [jim@phear]$ ls -la /bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 22987 Oct 21 1997 ls [jim@hendrix]$ ls -la /bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 155648 Oct 21 1997 ls **** lpd **** [jim@phear]$ ls -la /usr/sbin/lpd -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 8984 Aug 9 11:47 /usr/sbin/lpd [jim@hendrix]$ ls -la /usr/sbin/lpd -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 53248 Oct 21 1997 /usr/sbin/lpd **** ps **** [jim@phear]$ ls -la /bin/ps -r-xr-sr-x 1 bin kmem 31587 Oct 21 1997 /bin/ps [jim@hendrix]$ ls -la /bin/ps -r-xr-sr-x 1 bin kmem 167936 Oct 21 1997 /bin/ps My question is this.. a) how do i go about replacing those files with the originals without reinstalling, and b) I've got other machines running the same release and I was wondering if I could copy the files from the other box and replace the ones in question. I'm not sure if that'd work or not, so I figured I'd ask. I'd just reinstall to 2.2.7, but I have the box at an isp in Portland that I worked for, and I live in Australia now, so that's kind of a problem. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

That other OS is a dead issue, for me, since I never mix it and the real OS on the same box. I get the partition nomenclature from the SMM01-1.2 section, and only think of it in that regard. As a rule I slice the whole disk to unix.

It must be the knowledge of the ancients, mebbie. The problem that I am running into is that each variant of unix wants to have a different set of uses for beyond ``c'' partition. I guess technically, it does not matter, on a particular machine, but the time or two I have not gotten it right, it leads to that dreaded ``fs not found'' error on boot, and then locking the root fs into read-only mode, and the machine crying ``help''. It really does need to be standardized amongst the unix community, but that probably won't happen. > > Also, what is the convention of fs splitting between drives?

Most of what I run tends to be single-user workstations, where load is not particularly a problem, as it might be on a large server. Amongst my junker boxes, a 1 gig drive still is a goodly drive.....(:+}}... One of these days I will find a box full of 10 gig platters.... (right). Assuming the machine is devoted only to unix, then one slice per drive, and for the IDE users, mostly 2 drives max. The problem then becomes how to best divide up the drive(s) for maximizing space usage? > I have always recommended one file system per disk, with the exception > of the system disk, which can contain a root file system as well as > the /usr file system (and swap space).

I tend to agree with you, in my experiences. What I find I usually do is put the root, swap, var, and usr file systems on hd0, and then all my stuff on hd1. I find that I am using the var fs mostly as a temp dump for mail and spooling, and little else. All my user space is usually hung off a home or usr/home fs via hd1, so var does not have to hold that anymore. This begs the question, ``Why var?'', and if and if so, ``How big a var fs?''. Also, on a large drive (1 gig or larger), I find I need to make the root larger than the 16M traditionally from 4.4BSD or the usual 32M from FreeBSD. I find around 64-100M needed for root on my 2 x 2 gig hd system. Is there something in table sizes or such somewhere that makes me need a root fs that big? I have hit that root fs full message several times. > Greg Thanks for the input Greg..... as that movie robot was want to say, ``No. 5 need input, need input!''.

To me, it sounds like you have a hardware resource conflict, like an interrupt being shared. When you boot, enter "-c" at the boot: prompt and go into the configuration visual editor by entering "v" The screen will be divided into top and bottom sections. The two sections contain all the device drivers that are available in the current kernel (GENERIC, if you haven't built your own yet). In the top section, "uncollapse" each section and look at each device, and check for the word "Conf" in inverse video, indicating an interrupt or i/o address conflict. If you find any, you'll have to find an unused interrupt to assign to one of the devices or an unused i/o address range.

When I log on it (ascii mode) I log on it well as root. I can start graphic interphace with startx with afterstep. To start xdm I made all the modifications that are advised in the book the complete freebsd 2.2.6 to set xdm (Ch 15: Setting up your FreeBsd desktop p 229). When I start xdm, I have an interface that ask me my login and my password. The problem is that when I enter my login and my password in it the interface (1) change itself for a weird screen and then it comes back to the first interface (cf 1). I thought that the problem came from the fact I started xdm when I was login under root, so I tried to start directly with the screen by setting up a virtual terminal. The problem is still the same. I tried the online help (included on the first CD) but nothing enlighted me and even the handbook. Is there any new file that I have to include to solve this problem. Thanx a lot for the one that help me to solve this problem.

I can't remember exactly how it looked, perhaps there's someway I can put the system boot to a file? Thank you very much for your help, Quintin.

By the way, virtually no one uses the assembler under unix, it's there for the C compiler. Why not just write programs in C ??

I've used msql more, and find it's Perl and C APIs easy to use. The author even has a Java API that I've also done some stuff in. FreeBSD has a recently updated port of it, and there are some related Perl modules. mySQL may be more robust, and I believe it has more API support (i.e. Tcl). In my opinion, msql is great. Are you and Murrell setting this machine up? By the way, great choice with FreeBSD.

My recommendation would be mysql (http://www.tcx.se). It implements an important subset of the SQL-92 standard, and has proven to be very reliable and speedier than the others I've tried. > Is there one best overall package? That's very much a religious issue. If I wasn't using mysql, I'd probably be using postgreSQL - I've been pretty happy with it too.

Diagnostic programs won't find as many problems as Operating Systems, Compilers, etc. I recommend that you spend the money to buy 32MB of RAM. Pull out ALL that you have in there now, and put in the new. If that doesn't solve your problem, at least you can use the 32MB in addition to your old. The diagnostic program, on the other hand, is NOT usuable for anything else. I have problems on a new AMD-K6 233 (ASUS TX-97) when I make buildworld. But never any other time. In an attempt to isolate the problem, I turned off the CPUs internal and external caches. That allowed the buildworld to complete, though it took nearly 48hrs, instead of less than 24. But after make installworld, I turned the caches back on and I am not having any problems. It will be awhile before I can scrounge up the cash to buy new memory, to finish the job. Besides turning off cache, you can try adjusting the motherboard's RAM timing parameters. They usually get set to "auto". Try something slower than your RAM allegedly is, i.e., if it (they) claim it's 60ns, try 70ns settings. You can try some wait states too. If these changes "fix" it, then your memory doesn't meet it's alleged specs. I tried many permutations on my machine, and the only "fix" was to disable both CPU caches. BTW, I also have FreeBSD on an AMD-DX2/66 and it makes buildworld/installworld without problems. The faster CPUs are going to weed out substandard memories. Good luck. BTW, if you buy some new memory, buy a name brand. The way the industry works, is that you make a product, test it to see if it's above spec, if it is, sell it under your good name, if it's below spec, sell it to the next tier below you, who won't put their name on it!! People kid themselves all the time that a Sears TV is just as good as a Sony. Baloney...

Find another machine (at work? a friend?) that has DOS/Winblows or some variant of unix on it, that also has Internet access. Connect to www.freebsd.org and read the docs to make a boot floppy. Note that the procedure will vary according to the system you found as a surrogate. 2.

I got 2 setups one dedicated and one dialup both using the Pipeline 75 router (<$600). For the dialup one which you are looking at, I set the timeout to 3mins, if there is not outgoing or incoming activity the Pipeline automatically drops the line. Also you can set up such that it will not use the second B channel until you hit a load percentage. There by you can almost cut down you costs by half (per minute charges are per channel) when you demand is less. I have not tried a similar setup using a BSD box. But the Pipeline made my life very easy. It took me about 2 days to get it up as I didn't know anything about network configuration then. Also I have a hub to which the Pipeline is connected so everyone uses the Pipeline as the gateway. This would be a good choice for a LAN. (I had to buy a dual speed hub just to keep the Pipeline happy at 10Mbps) -Satya ----------------- Satya Devireddy satya@dspsoft.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Sep 1 13:27:33 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA18043 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 13:27:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netra.graphnet.com (netra.graphnet.com [192.206.112.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA18030 for ; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 13:27:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from romank@graphnet.com) Received: from graphnet.com (roman.graphnet.com [192.206.112.93]) by netra.graphnet.com (8.8.8/8.8.6) with ESMTP id QAA11251; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:26:14 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <35EC59FE.4292B91A@graphnet.com> Date: Tue, 01 Sep 1998 16:33:02 -0400 From: Roman Katsnelson Organization: Graphnet, Inc X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (WinNT; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Steve Friedrich CC: "wwoods@cybcon.com" , FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Unique question......

The bug showed up when doing processor intensive stuff, like compiling under Linux, playing Wing Commander: Prophecy (the game would lock up during missions). Turning off the CPU's internal cache fixes the problem. (i can't find more information on it right now. i couldn't find it on AMD's web site) If it doesn't turn out to be the memory, maybe you should try a newer K6 chip. --Ludwig Pummer ludwigp@bigfoot.com ludwigp@chipweb.ml.org ICQ UIN: 692441 http://chipweb.home.ml.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Sep 1 14:02:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA24228 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 14:02:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from kakapo.pinnacle.co.nz (pinsoft.internet.co.nz [202.37.141.181]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA24137 for ; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 14:02:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jonc@pinnacle.co.nz) Received: from tui.pinnacle.co.nz (tui.pinnacle.co.nz [202.37.163.3]) by kakapo.pinnacle.co.nz (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA16638; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 09:00:14 +1200 (NZST) (envelope-from jonc@pinnacle.co.nz) Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 09:00:14 +1200 From: Jonathan Chen To: Jim Mock cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: questions In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 1 Sep 1998, Jim Mock wrote: > My question is this.. a) how do i go about replacing those files with the > originals without reinstalling, and b) I've got other machines running the > same release and I was wondering if I could copy the files from the other > box and replace the ones in question.

One thing to consider though is that most laptops have very small drives that probably can't be mounted in a desktop case. You can temporarily sit the drive on something stable, but beware of it falling, etc. And it might be a little tough to get even a friend to let you go that deep into his machine, especially if you've never taken a cover off a computer before. Having said all that, I'll probably use this technique myself (I've done similar things in the past, didn't pop to my mind this time). As for making your own custom kernel, you should learn how because a custom kernel is frequently half the size of GENERIC and will boot faster because it will only contain the devices you actually have and won't waste so much time probing for all the devices in GENERIC. A quick tour: cd to /sys/i386/conf if the directory doesn't exist, you haven't installed the kernel sources (go to /stand/sysinstall and select configure...distributions... and find the kernel sources and install them) in /sys/i386/conf copy the GENERIC file to a filename of your liking, i.e., cp GENERIC MYKERNEL using any plain text editor (like vi, emacs, textedit), edit MYKERNEL. You need to know what devices have been detected in your system. You can use "dmesg>log" to put the boot messages into a log file. Then just look for lines containing irq and/or "at 0x???". The hex numbers "0x???" are i/o addresses. Most devices have several possibilities. Comment out the lines in MYKERNEL for devices you don't have. Say you have an adaptec SCSI controller, comment out the lines for NCR, etc. Do the same for NICs. You can comment out a few lines at a time, such as all the NICs except the one you think is correct for you, and build a kernel and boot it. Then, if it seems ok, de-configure some more devices, build again, boot again, etc. This is step-wise refinement. Even those who have been wrestling with computers for twenty odd years do it, so don't think it's macho to get it right first time thru. After editing the MYKERNEL file, do a config on it; config MYKERNEL It only takes a couple minutes, generally. Then cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL and then invoke make make This stage will take some time, but it keeps outputting messages, so at least you know it's not "hung". If the make completes successfully (you'll know), then invoke make with the install target. make install This puts the new kernel in / as kernel and renames the previous kernel as kernel.old. Go rename kernel.old to kernel.GENERIC (if kernel.GENERIC doesn't already exist) because each time you make a kernel, kernel.old gets overwritten with kernel. You don't want to lose a kernel that you know will boot. Then reboot. This stuff is in The Complete FreeBSD, and you really should get a copy, if you don't have one. I've been wrestling computers of all shapes and sizes for 22yrs, and I found the book indispensable. This stuff is probably in the handbook, but I haven't looked...

I've no idea how to shut down the cache, but maybe that would make everything unrealistic anyway. Why not expand the file count? If you have say 100 test files 00 thru 99.html, copy them into each of say 10 directories called 0 thru 9. Then copy that tree into each of ten directories called 0 thru 9, and so on. With a few commands, you could create many megabytes of files, in a relatively efficient directory structure. Either the supply of files would swamp the cache, or be sufficient that no file is likely to be called more than once in the test. Then you would do a GET of a URL like http://hostname/0/3/5/47.html using a random (or sequential) number like 03547 to determine the path of the URL. -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Sep 1 16:23:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA16876 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:23:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from goldseal.net (pm3-1-ppp18.pcom.net [208.217.71.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA16845 for ; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:22:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from info@goldseal.net) Date: Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:22:56 -0700 (PDT) From: info@goldseal.net Message-Id: <199809012322.QAA16845@hub.freebsd.org> To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: #1 Source for Advertising Specialties & Jewelry Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG ___________________________________________________________ Here is the info you requested http://www.goldseal.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Sep 1 16:36:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA18706 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:36:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from wolf.com (ns1.wolf.com [207.137.58.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA18700 for ; Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:36:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@wolf.com) Received: (qmail 13419 invoked by uid 100); 1 Sep 1998 23:42:42 -0000 Message-ID: <19980901164241.18210@ns1.wolf.com> Date: Tue, 1 Sep 1998 16:42:41 -0700 From: Dan Mahoney To: Graeme Tait , "Callanan, Chris T" Cc: info@boatbooks.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Disk Cache References: <199809012210.WAA13989@calliope1.fm.intel.com> <35ECAA2C.6A20@echidna.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89 In-Reply-To: <35ECAA2C.6A20@echidna.com>; from Graeme Tait on Tue, Sep 01, 1998 at 07:15:08PM -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Why not expand the file count?

Thanks. I'm running 2.2.5 and am wondering if there is a patch that adds support for FAT32 file systems. Where can I get it? I have two IDE drives that run Win98 and I've put fBSD on a external SCSI drive. What's the best way to get the boot loader to boot off the scsi drive. It's an Adaptec 2930 (I think those are the right numbers.... It's the latest ultra-wide controler). The controller detects the drives at boot, but I can't get the boot loader to see the scsi drives. Thanks for your help.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings folks. I must admit, I am running up against a strange, and probably really obvious problem, however, after reading faq and handbook, the answer escapes me. If someone could be kind enough to either answer the question, or point me in the correct direction, I would appreciate it. I am trying to install the apache-fp port. It informs me on make that the DES Library must be installed, and to install the DES lib before making the port. I go into /stand/sysinstall and select custom installation, and then selecting custom distributions, then the DES distributions. I select the DES base distribution and the sources. When I click OK, it brings me back to the distributions menu? Isn't is supposed to continue the installation proceedure? I am in a jam here, and am probably missing something. But, I guess, what is the way to install DES after FreeBSD has been installed? Sorry for the lame question, but I am stuck. Thanks. Jeremy D.

Tonight I tried to recompile the kernel but got error code1. I just went back to the prior kernel, and all is fine. I have question stemming from info in FreeBSD handbook, section 5.3.5. The line that reads as follows: controller aha0 at isa? port "IO_AHA0" bio irq? drq 5 vector ahaintr Should I/must I put in the port address and IRQ, as I have them set via jumpers on the card? I had left the line unedited once and added the IRQ once, and still got the error code. I uncommented the line about the CD (for SCSI external CD ROM) and left it unedited as well.

I compiled to kernel with the "controller pnp0" option. It displayed the modem and I added it to the PnP Table in "/sys/i386/isa/sio.c" I also had to boot with "kernel -c" and type in "pnp 2 0 enable os irq0 3 drq0 0 port0 0x2f8" I attempted to use ppp to access this modem. I used "set line /dev/cuaa1" and tried to connect using a script, but it didn't work. I turned on logging and the FreeBSD is not getting any of the return codes from the modem. I can manual dial out using the term command within ppp, but I can't get any of the modem output. If I use the modem in other operating systems, the modem does return codes and everything. Am I using the wrong device or is there something else I don't know about? Thanks.

Check whether you're running in compressed or uncompressed mode. Also, I don't think you'll get more than 500 kB/s out of a DDS-1 tape: you'll need DDS-2 tapes for that. The drive recognizes them automatically.

I can see a few alternatives, in the order of diminishing ease of use (but in no particular cost order): 1. Get a CD-ROM for the machine, and install from CD-ROM. This appears to be what you're planning. Before you make the investment, make sure you can boot from CD-ROM. Note that if your machine supports either floppy or CD-ROM at one time, you can't boot from floppy and then swap in the CD-ROM: by that time the kernel will have decided you don't have a CD-ROM, and will refuse to examine any evidence to the contrary. 2. Get a floppy drive for the machine, and use it to boot the machine. Install via the net using Ethernet. 3. Put the hard disk in another full-blown laptop and do the installation in that machine, then move it to your system. 4. Put the hard disk in a desktop and do the installation in that machine, then move it to your system. You'll need an adaptor cable, which isn't always cheap. 5. Get a floppy drive for the machine, and use it to boot the machine. Install via the net using PLIP and a laplink cable. 6. Get a floppy drive for the machine, and use it to boot the machine. Install via the net using a PPP connection. 7. Get a floppy drive for the machine, and use it to boot the machine and install the software. A number of laptops have important setup and diagnostic utilities on the disk (as I discovered after I bought a brand new laptop and blew away the disk, just as you're planning to do :-). You might consider shrinking the W95% partition to the bare minimum to keep these programs.

A friend of mine had to add PNP ID String of the modem to the Kernal compilation stuff. (Please forgive me, I'm not a programmer so I don't know the technical jargon here,) as soon as we recompiled the kernal, it worked great. Perhaps a programmer here can tell us how this is done?

At the base xbiff is set as a mail checker. I decided to change this mail checker against asmail. Like I am a newbie with FreeBSD I picked up the .asmailrc from the 'man' that give a basic configuration. I started the asmail like this: 'asmail' or 'asmail -name /root/.asmailrc' I know that by default I don't have to specify the path where is the file to config asmail but without or not without specifying this file when I had setup .asmailrc an error appear to my screen: "unknown keyword MailFile."

The (relevant) dmesg output is as follows: ...

The tape drive is the only device on the scsi bus. Could this possibly be a firmware problem? Any thoughts on this would be great.

I'd be suspicious of the Adaptec 1505. Do you have the possibility of trying it with some other host adapter? Also, Exabytes are notorious for having strange configurations.

My problem is interesting - 'ppp -auto -alias' works fine, except it refuses to hang up after the specified timeout. I even tried to give 'set afilter 0 deny 0/0 0/0'. Supposedly, in this config timeout counter should start to tick immediately after connect ? byt, giving 'set log +debug' I found out that the timer responsible for the connection timeout is ticking down ...err.. lazy. That is. What I thought - It should be either be reset to the [timeout] value specified in the config with each packet agreeing with afilter, and tick down each second otherwise. What I see in the log is that is gets decreased by a certain value (not 1 second, but several seconds), and then stays on this value for undefined random period of time. Then it decreases again, and the cycle repeats. The trouble is that the value of a decrease is not equal to the time being spent by the timer in the previous value... I even tried 'set log +TCP/IP' but even when 'tail -f /var/log/ppp.log' shows no packets, 'show proto' informs that TCP/IP "in" packets are coming... Did you have any questions of such kind ? wbr, andrew yourtchenko To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 05:33:01 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA09481 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 05:33:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from whitestar.cpn.org.au (ppp03.dpac.tas.gov.au [147.109.155.72]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA09474 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 05:32:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cpn@dpac.tas.gov.au) Received: from jumpgate.cpn.org.au (jumpgate.cpn.org.au [172.16.1.1]) by whitestar.cpn.org.au (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id WAA02148; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 22:31:40 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from cpn@dpac.tas.gov.au) Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 22:31:38 +1000 (EST) From: Carey Nairn X-Sender: cpn@jumpgate.cpn.org.au To: Greg Lehey cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: problem with Exabyte 8505 tape drive In-Reply-To: <19980902175158.J606@freebie.lemis.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, 2 Sep 1998, Greg Lehey wrote: > On Wednesday, 2 September 1998 at 17:28:31 +1000, Carey Nairn wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I'm having problems with this drive and FreeBSD-2.2.5, connected to an > > Adaptec 1505 PNP SCSI card. > > > > Didn't you send this message a while back?

I did have some problems with the 1505 initially, but that was getting it to be probed correctly. That now works OK since putting the plug and play drivers into the kernel. There may be a remote chance of getting the drive to test with another adapter, but I don't have easy access to the machine, so it isn't that simple.

All directories mentioned will be relative to the main /usr/src/sys directory, which is also accessible through /sys. There are a number of subdirectories here representing different parts of the kernel, but the most important, for our purposes, are i386/conf, where you will edit your custom kernel configuration, and compile, which is the staging area where your kernel will be built. Notice the logical organization of the directory tree, with each supported device, filesystem, and option in its own subdirectory. Also, anything inside the i386 directory deals with PC hardware only, while everything outside the i386 directory is common to all platforms which FreeBSD could potentially be ported to. I couldn't reach that directory --> /usr/src/sys because i only have /usr/src and have nothing under src directory! Where is the configuration file? Regarding to print, i don't know why it works. i followed the instruction from handbooks But i could do the configuration part! but it works now. i only typed lp file name --> it works but someone told me using lpd, it didn't work! why?

When I installed StarOffice it did not work. I went to look at some of the files and tried to use emacs. It no longer worked. Then I tried pico, another editor, and it too failed with a similar message. Programs are designed to use lots of other programs, many of which are in library locations - places the programs know to go and look for something. The install removed some important library programs and I needed to put them back. The install did not remove the library programs, just messed up access to them. See man ldconfig for and explanation of how it works.

Not really. If you're looking for free/open source, your primary choices are probably: MySQL - http://www.tcx.se/ MiniSQL - http://www.hughes.com.au/ PostgreSQL - http://www.postgresql.org/ Not one of them yet cover the entire ANSI spec, but if standards compliance is a priority, PostgreSQL is probably your best bet.

It found your 1st printer (lpt0) properly. It is merely stating that the definition for lpt1 conflicts, which isn't a problem if you only have one printer (at lpt0). You can get rid of lpt1, and therefore this message by one of the following: 1. At the boot: prompt, type "-c" to invoke the configuration tool, then at the config prompt type "v" to place the tool in visual mode. In the top section, uncollapse "Communications" and find the definition for lpt1. Use the "delete" key to remove lpt1 from your configuration. This definition is now in the lower section, titled "Inactive Drivers". If you ever decide to hook up a second printer, move it from the bottom section to the top, and give it a valid i/o address that doesn't conflict with lpt0, i.e., the standard adx for lpt1 is 0x278 (please note that most books use Mickeysoft/Intel convention of calling this printer port lpt2, and out lpt0, they call lpt1). 2. You could also remove the driver from the kernel, by removing it from the kernel config file in /sys/i386/conf and rebuilding the kernel.

I would like to upgrade it to the latest FreeBSD release. It is a headless box and I have configured it using a serial console. It is currently running 2.1.6-RELEASE. I would like to be able to do the upgrade remotely, that is, without having to go to the ISP's site if at all possible. Going to the site is not out of the question, but If I can do all or most of the upgrade remotely, then that is what I would like to do. Also, I have no modem on the serial port that I'm using as the console, so I could not simply dial up the console screen. My question is, does anyone here have any suggestions/tips/techiques as to how I could do this? Also, are there any general issues I should be watching out for when upgrading from 2.1.6 (configuration file changes, etc.)? Thanks in advance, C.P.

If changing the memory doesn't fix it, i'd disable the onboard ide and put in another ide card, hey they're cheap. I looked at your dmesg output and I didn't see any interrupt conflicts.

I know this is not a real practical question, but I just want to see the logic of file placement in UNIX.

Just in case your /ust slice is dead. /sbin -Same as above but that are staticly linked to their libaries /usr/local/{bin,sbin} -For binaries that are installed localy to the machine that is not part of the core instalation of FreeBSD Like netscape, xv, pine. elm /usr/{bin,sbin} For the rest of the installed binaries, such as talk, cvs, du, ee, tip The reason for the seperation is to make it eaiser to locate the programs. There is no reason to have netscape in the /usr/bin/ because it is not a part of FreeBSD. You can make the /usr/local a NFS mount so one machine can hold the binaries for a custer of machines. Also it would not be pretty to have one directory with 400+ programs in it.

What exactly did you type? Ahh, I bet he started a shutdown +5 and changed his mind. He killed it with -9 and left an /etc/nologin. I think Brendon later asked if kill -9 by root is a bad idea. Well, sometimes you need to use it but you should try a normal (no arg) kill first. That gives the program you are stopping a chance to clean up after itself.

Mike, I am sorry for not responding to your message earlier. I only got to it today, and sent a reply. You must understand that we get many people with problems like yours, and most of the time they're caused by setting the hardware to the incorrect IRQ, or something simple like that. The problem you're recieving is unusual, and it leads me to beleive that there may be some type of problem with the support of your CDROM device. The driver that is supposed to support it may be supporting your CDROM incorrectly. This problem may need the attention of some of the FreeBSD developers. One of the FreeBSD developers should respond to you very soon after you send an email to questions@freebsd.org.

The data that I have to publish is currently in Access, but I could easily move it to an Informix server that we have running on SCO Unix. I could also, possibly, move it to one of the free SQL servers, like MySQL, that runs on FreeBSD, but that would mean buying some hardware that I don't think I could get approved right now. The web server that I would like to use is Apache on FreeBSD. Can anyone recommend a fairly simple, inexpensive way to do this. I cannot spend much money, as this project would not really make a profit for the company, but would make it easier to distribute information within the company. I would also like something fairly easy. I am not an idiot, but I'm not a Unix guru either. I will appreciate any help I can get.

I pointed out in previous email that lpt0 was ok, the error message was regarding lpt1 (which you probably don't have anyway). I further suggested how you could eliminate the error message; configure it out during boot process or build a new kernel without lpt1. Please note that lpd is the line printer daemon (see man lpd) that usually gets started at boot time by rc.conf, etc. lp is the line printer program that users use to submit a print job (see man lp).

I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.7 (upgraded to Stable on Aug 28 19:10) and Xfree86-3.3.2. Under KDE-1.0 and with a 16-bit pixel depth, the displacement of windows is desperately slow (it's like X11 events would pile up some place and then would be processed later ....). The delay can get up to seconds : during some seconds AFTER the mouse button is released, the lagging window continues to move, to catch up with the displacement of the mouse pointer. The problem is worse for big windows than for (for example) small images viewed under GIMP. I don't get this problem under KDE and 8-bit-pixels, nor under Twm with either 8- or 16-bit-pixels. If somebody has an idea ....

Luego se supone que debo colocar un archivo llamado quota.user en el root del File System osea: en /usr ----------> touch quota.user pregunta:ŋeste archivo debe tener la informacion de los ususarios restringidos a quota?ŋeste archivo lo puedo poner en otro directorio? Despues ejecute el edquota y empezo con problemas , lo primero que arroja es lo sgte: edquota: warning: quotas are not compiled into this kernel pregunta:ŋSignifica que quota no va a funcionar bien?ŋcomo debo Recompilar el Kernel para que acepte quota? Bueno luego de esto aparece el editor vi y lo sgte: /usr: blocks in use:0, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) inodes in use:0, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) pregunta: Block,inodes in use ŋque es?, ŋSoft y Hard?, en que lugar pongo que se restringa a 5MB por ejemplo Y Finalmente como aplico el quotaon Que pasa si a un usuario dentro de mi definicion (dentro de /usr) , no lo defino con edquota? queda por defecto con capacidad ilimitada de Disco? Si defino group.quota y restringo un grupo xxx a 20MB , significa que entre todos los usuarios que pertenezcan a ese grupo van a poder tener en suma 20MB ocupados en disco? , Que pasa si un usuario que pertenezca a ese grupo esta definido como quota.user , se pueden mezclar quota.user y quota.group?Osea el usuario como grupo puede tener capacidad de 20MB y como usuario simple podria tener otra capacidad (definiendolo como usuario paralelamente al group.quota)?

We ran PostgreSQL on a *slightly* more power machine for about 8 months or so, handling a dial-up accounting system (the database was used for both dialup time log files as well as authentication)...if you design your databases well enough, you shouldn't have a problem...a little faster with more powerful server, but then you can always use that for a justification ... "yes sir, it is a little bit slow, but we are trying to show what is possible, and with even a small investment in some hardware, we could really make this puppy bark"...what is the current cost of RAM in the US? Up here, I think its something like $200CDN for 128Meg of RAM?

How do I get the data from the SQL server to the Web page. BTW, disk space is one thing I have plenty of. I have another 1GB drive sitting here that I scavanged out of an old SCO Unix server.

I'm biased...MySQL has a commercial-use license, so for someone that is worried about buying more hardware, you'll probably want to avoid using MySQL. Check out PostgreSQL (http://www.postgresql.org), which falls under Berkeley license and is free for use, period. No "unless you use it for this, or this or this"... > How do I get the data from the SQL server to the Web page. The most popular method for doing this appears to be to use PHP (http://www.php.net), which is basically a highly evolved 'SSI' scripting language. I tend to prefer just building Perl CGIs, but if you are only querying the database in order to display information, my experience with PHP is that it is much faster to build up a WWW site using that, vs CGIs...again, individual preferences might be different...

I need to be able to automate deleting these records. When I do this: grep -e "unique_string" -A 13 -B 2 database.file it works fine and shows me the record, and only the record. I thought I could use the -v flag like this: grep -e "unique_string" -A 13 -B 2 -v database.file to get an output of everything BUT the record, and from that point it's a piece of cake. however, that command returns the entire file. i read the man pages about 45 trillion times and i really can't come up with anything else to do. is this even possible with grep or should i just break down and use perl?

But I do have experience in writing client server database applications. Specifically, accessing relational databases via a C/API which is what I assume you will be using with MySQL. There will be a list of functions which you call. This will allow you to access the database. I'm sure there's a user manual there somewhere. SQL is a complex language. But if all you want to do is create a simple CRUD (create, read, update, delete) interface, it should be straight forward. Database schema creation (tables, indexes, etc) is considered, by some, to be an art form. If you have new to either SQL or database schemas, it may pay dividends to get in some professional help, depending on how critical this database will be. See next paragraph. On a side note, this sounds like a good topic for my diary. I'd like to see how good MySQL stacks up against other systems I've used. Especially after all the good things I've heard it. Given that I want to do this, it helps to have a real application to go against. How complex is your situation? If it's a weekend job, I may be interested in helping you out. I already have apache installed. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - my [mis]adventures http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 13:14:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA25836 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 13:14:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclops.xtra.co.nz (cyclops.xtra.co.nz [202.27.184.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA25706 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 13:13:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from junkmale@pop3.xtra.co.nz) Received: from wocker (210-55-210-87.ipnets.xtra.co.nz [210.55.210.87]) by cyclops.xtra.co.nz (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id IAA18822; Thu, 3 Sep 1998 08:11:49 +1200 (NZST) Message-Id: <199809022011.IAA18822@cyclops.xtra.co.nz> From: "Dan Langille" Organization: DVL Software Limited To: The Hermit Hacker Date: Thu, 3 Sep 1998 08:11:48 +1200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: FreeBSD, Apache and databases Reply-to: junkmale@xtra.co.nz CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <35ED92A7.2FD591D1@ibm.net> In-reply-to: X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 2 Sep 98, at 15:01, The Hermit Hacker wrote: > On Wed, 2 Sep 1998, David Chamberlain wrote: > > > OK, so back to the original question.

Why did you mention the license in conjunction with "buying more hardware"? I'm confused. I understood that MySQL was free unless you were distributing a commercial product. In effect, if you are using it inhouse or giving away your product, there is no fee to be paid.

You're not paying anyone for support, so you need to lower your expectations of what you'll get. You might be able to find someone willing to charge you and therefore willing to respond to your every need. But FreeBSD is supported by volunteers, i.e., people who have other jobs to pay the rent, and contribute their leisure time, for free, to help each other. If you check Walnut Creeks web site, you'll see that the support they pledge is limited.

MySQL has a *commercial-distribution* license. You are only forced to buy licenses if you ship MySQL as part of a product. If you use it in-house, there are no restrictions at all (although buying email support is encouraged). PostgreSQL supports a larger subset of SQL (it has subselects and transactions), but MySQL is significantly faster than Postgres, since it doesn't have to manage transactions. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 13:48:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA01646 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 13:48:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from send1e.yahoomail.com (send1e.yahoomail.com [205.180.60.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id NAA01641 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 13:48:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from racola69@yahoo.com) Message-ID: <19980902204515.6511.rocketmail@send1e.yahoomail.com> Received: from [208.255.235.69] by send1e; Wed, 02 Sep 1998 13:45:15 PDT Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 13:45:15 -0700 (PDT) From: Alexander Cola Subject: FreeBSD 2.2.5 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, My name is Lex Colaianni.

They really aren't qualified to support it beyond replacing defective media, etc. I don't see any technical info in these threads regarding the actual problem. I understand that it's a Panasonic with an AT interface. Actually, most people are vague on these things. Is it connected to a Soundblaster or to a real IDE interface. The reason I ask, is because in the early days on adding CD-ROM support, most companies used proprietary interfaces that somewhat resemble ATA. Try posting your questions here, and we'll take a shot... Keep in mind that some old hardware may not be supported and you probably won't find anyone interested in spending their free time adding support for an old, quirky, proprietary device. They'd rather spend their free time adding support for new, standard, way cool stuff. Regardless of what operating system you run, you have to live within the bounds of supported hardware. I have been using Winblows, OS/Blue and Linux, and FreeBSD for quite some time. It's frustrating to find hardware that will work under each and every one of them. So let's begin anew...

Hi - been messing about for over a week now, but the mouse daemon in sysinstall absolutely refuses to find the MS intellimouse that works fine on other systems. Here's the error message on device config: "psm0 not found at 0x60"..... The odd thing is that I could see that when first installing off a boot disk, psm0 is found OK. It's only after this point that it somehow loses contact with the mouse. I'm using the Novice install route. System is the se440bx mb, 9 gig scsi hd with win 95 on separate partitions.....no boot mgr - using boot disk. Tried reinstalling many many times - everything else is detected on boot except the mouse. I'm using freeBSD ver 2.2.6, and the bios pnp setting is off (tried on with no luck). I even tried in device configuration to change the irq & address of the p&p mouse - usually this led to crashes. Tried eliminating conflicts similarly with little luck. If anyone has managed to configure freeBSD on this mb, etc, please let me know! (The system is a Micron millenium 6 with I740 vid card & awe64 sound card) I've heard that this video card gives minimal video modes in xwindows - do the problems extend to the mouse??? Next I'll try a com port mouse, but what a waste! Thank you kindly for your consideration......................... - - - - - - - - - - - - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Steven K.

I'm confused... Level 2 cache is usually located on the motherboard, with the Pentium II being the odd man out (nice if you have a big enough die). Are you saying the motherboard doesn't have an L2 cache ?? If you're getting a motherboard that has no L2 but it does have the CPU, you can always buy a different motherboard. I went to AMDs web site and their description of their 3DNow chips show an L1 cache...

With CGI scripts. mysql has both a C API and a DBD::DBI perl interface. The DBD::DBI stuff comes with the mysql distribution so you don't even need to go looking for it.

The situation is this: I'm installing FreeBSD on a 386DX-33, with co-processor, 10Meg RAM, 1.08gig hard drive, Panasonic CR-562-B 2X CD-ROM on a proprietary Panasonic interface - (tried both an old Packard Bell [crystal] sound card and an actual Panasonic 8bit interface card), an Oak 512K VGA card, a Western Digital WD8003 SMC Ethernet card. Here's the sequence of steps I follow: 1) Boot from the FreeBSD install disk made off of the installation CD. 2) Choose -c at the boot prompt to start up with a custom configuration. 3) Use the visual configuration program to set the I/O and IRQ settings: a) matcd - 300H (Panasonic card), or 340H (Crystal) b) ed0 - WD8003 (300H, I5) c) sio0, sio1 - Std 3f8,2f8 - 4,3 d) all other non-installed devices disabled. 4) Make sure there are no CONF's listed in Visual before starting probe. 5) Allow probe to start and begin installation program. 6) Choose Options menu from installation program and set extra debugging to YES. 7) Also set media to CD-ROM at that point. (Error occurs regardless of where in the installation I set this.) 8) Start Novice installation. 9) Partition the drive into a 75Meg root and the rest for swap(50M), var(150M), usr(the rest). 10) Choose All for the distribution selection including DES. 11) Do not link to the ports collection. 12) Start installation. During the installation, after the install program does newfs and then copies the dev files, the program will try to copy BIN and the rest of the distribution. When this event occurs it tells me that it is having trouble mounting the selected media. On the debug screen, you'll please pardon me for being inexact as I don't have the screen in front of me, it has an error similar to "Improper/invalid mode for track x - error (5)!". If I cancel at this point the installation program thinks it's installed properly and will attempt to go through all the final installation steps but obviously gets no-where. Incidentally this same exact error occurs when I try and install a CD of 2.2.7 that I FTP'd and burnt. I thought that it was because I had burnt it in something that was not ISO format, however on re-burning it in such I found that was not the case either. That's the long and short of it. Anything anyone might be able to tell me to help me with this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

They really aren't qualified to support it beyond replacing defective media, etc. I don't see any technical info in these threads regarding the actual problem. I understand that it's a Panasonic with an AT interface. Actually, most people are vague on these things. Is it connected to a Soundblaster or to a real IDE interface. The reason I ask, is because in the early days on adding CD-ROM support, most companies used proprietary interfaces that somewhat resemble ATA. Try posting your questions here, and we'll take a shot... Keep in mind that some old hardware may not be supported and you probably won't find anyone interested in spending their free time adding support for an old, quirky, proprietary device. They'd rather spend their free time adding support for new, standard, way cool stuff. Regardless of what operating system you run, you have to live within the bounds of supported hardware. I have been using Winblows, OS/Blue and Linux, and FreeBSD for quite some time. It's frustrating to find hardware that will work under each and every one of them. So let's begin anew...

Go into /etc/rc.conf and set ibcs2_enable="YES" # Ibcs2 (SCO) emulation loaded at startup (or NO) Installing the applications will be tricky though since we don't have custom. Easiest to install on an SCO system and tar over the program and lib files. Which reminds me, just turning on emulation won't do it all. You need all the SCO shared libs your app wants to use.

You can go to http://www.freebsd.org/ and under the Documentation section look for the "Update from source/make world" tutorial. You can also take a look at my page, http://home.san.rr.com/freebsd/upgrade.html which has much of the same info but has more info (since the last time I looked at Nik's page, it could have changed :) about upgrading remotely since I do this often. Also, since you're doing a 'major' upgrade (2.1.x to 2.2.x) you will probably find my comproot script useful. It's also on my page. If you're not looking to do a make world upgrade, you will have to do it from the console.

Read 'man hier' it will answer a lot of your questions. :) Part of the logic is that if you give users access to certain filesystems (say, on /usr) and they hose them up, the sysadmin can use the tools in /bin and /sbin to repair the damage because users have no write access to those areas, therefore they cannot muck them up. :) Welcome to unix, Doug (which is not an acronym BTW, so unix or Unix is correct, UNIX is not) -- *** Chief Operations Officer, DALnet IRC network *** At Barry (a small town in south Wales) hidden cameras have had to be installed to keep watch on the town's CCTV [Closed Circuit Television] to record acts of vandalism against the CCTV. - Privacy Forum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 15:15:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA15089 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 15:15:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from wolf.com (ns1.wolf.com [207.137.58.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA15083 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 15:15:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@wolf.com) Received: (qmail 18645 invoked by uid 100); 2 Sep 1998 22:21:55 -0000 Message-ID: <19980902152154.28911@ns1.wolf.com> Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 15:21:54 -0700 From: Dan Mahoney To: David Chamberlain , The Hermit Hacker Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD, Apache and databases References: <35ED92A7.2FD591D1@ibm.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89 In-Reply-To: <35ED92A7.2FD591D1@ibm.net>; from David Chamberlain on Wed, Sep 02, 1998 at 11:47:03AM -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > OK, so back to the original question.

My point is that this is not logical. Sure it's logical. FDISK slices are always numbers; disklabel partitions are always letters. wd1s1 .. wd1s4 are the four primary fdisk slices. Any or all of them MAY be a container (i.e. extended partition type). If any of them are, then they are scanned for valid partition entries (including more nested extended partitions), and any of those will appear at wd1s5, s6, etc. The kernel sets an arbitrary limit of 32 of these slices. So say you had a mythical 14G IDE drive partitioned with FAT16 DOS drives: +--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | C: | extended partition | +--------+- - - - + - - - -+- - - - + - - - - - - - - - - - - -+ | D: | E: | F: | extended part. | +--------------------------+ - - - - - - - - - - - - -+ | G: | H: | I: | +--------------------------+ (boy, I respect Terry more now. Drawing ascii-art isn't easy :) In your naming scheme, what would drive 'G:' be? wd1s2da ? FreeBSD would name them like this (after looking at the code in diskslice_machdep.c; I could be wrong): wd1s1 C: wd1s2 extended partition container #1 wd1s3 empty wd1s4 empty wd1s5 D: wd1s6 E: wd1s7 F: wd1s8 extended partition container #2 wd1s9 G: wd1s10 H: wd1s11 I: -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 16:23:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA25688 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 16:23:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.fm-net.com (mail.fm-net.com [209.180.227.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA25663 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 16:23:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rryttie@fm-net.com) Received: from fm-net.com [209.180.227.188] by mail.fm-net.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.06) id A692D4600FC; Wed, 02 Sep 1998 18:36:50 CDT Message-ID: <35EDD328.1C18BA9A@fm-net.com> Date: Wed, 02 Sep 1998 18:22:17 -0500 From: Ryan Organization: none X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: having trouble getting programs to work with luigi driver...

However, when I try to print from Star Office 3.x I get the print commands coming out on the printed page, instead of the intended test pages. Previous to this I have only been printing plain Ascii text files - no problems there. The handbbok suggested I make an interpreter script (I took the default shown on page) and include the ghostscript supported driver - for which I chose the epson. What did I do wrong here?

I made a boot disk, but need some instructions for the next step: Okay - then you're ready! The boot disk will start you on your way - you'll just need to fill in some information (your dial up to ISP if that's what you're using, the IP address, nameserver etc). (Please do a backup of any important data, on both drives just to be safe.) Once you give it all of the pertinent information, it will go ftp the files for you and do a basic install (including putting the kernel together for you). You can then do post-install configuration like installing packages etc. For more information on what will happen, you can go to www.freebsd.org and read the installation section in the Handbook. Good luck and write back if you have problems w/ the installation from the boot floppy.

Well, v.90 standard not withstanding, the K-Flex technology used by Zoom is used by more people then USR's X2 technology. Besides... Zoom is a lot more reliable... :) I've had two of each brand, and have been very disappointed with USR from the start.

If you define a "slice" as a section of the disk whose dimensions are defined outside of FreeBSD (i.e. a DOS/NT/whatever partioning program) and a "partition" as a subdivision whose dimensions ARE defined by FreeBSD, then the terminology works. Or...whatever DOS/BIOS looks at as a "drive" gets translated to a FreeBSD "slice". The way you're looking at is that each primary partition should correspond to a FreeBSD slice and that a DOS logical drive is the logical (pun intended :-)) analogue to the FreeBSD partition. Either way seems to make sense to me, with the former being a little more flexible (esp. if you're into partitioning things up a lot). -- Scott Blachowicz sab@seanet.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Sep 2 17:33:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA07965 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 17:33:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from modgud.nordicdms.com (h21-168-107.nordicdms.com [207.21.168.107] (may be forged)) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA07959 for ; Wed, 2 Sep 1998 17:33:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from walton@nordicdms.com) Received: (qmail 22532 invoked by alias); 3 Sep 1998 00:32:42 -0000 Message-ID: <19980903003242.22530.qmail@modgud.nordicdms.com> Received: (qmail 22518 invoked from network); 3 Sep 1998 00:32:42 -0000 Received: from mail-ftp.nordicdms.com (HELO mail-ftp) (207.21.168.100) by mail.nordicdms.com with SMTP; 3 Sep 1998 00:32:42 -0000 From: "Dave Walton" Organization: Nordic Entertainment Worldwide To: Dan Mahoney , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 17:32:42 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: FreeBSD, Apache and databases Reply-to: walton@nordicdms.com In-reply-to: <19980902152154.28911@ns1.wolf.com> References: <35ED92A7.2FD591D1@ibm.net>; from David Chamberlain on Wed, Sep 02, 1998 at 11:47:03AM -0700 X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 2 Sep 98, at 15:21, Dan Mahoney wrote: > > OK, so back to the original question.

I suspect it's just because I've never taken the time to figure out how to do advanced database activities using PHP/FI, while doing so in Perl is straightforward and usually pretty simple. I've had others tell me as well that it's a lot simpler to put together a new app in PHP/FI than in Perl, but I seem to have some difficulty getting my mind around the PHP/FI way of doing things...

The latter is actually more flexible, as it accounts for any scheme in which one of the four possible "slices" (to use the FreeBSD parlance) is then subdivided.

Varying sizes of cache have been the norm. Cache memories are faster and more expensive than "main" memory and so it's always been a matter of how much cash do you have... The Celeron is Intel's attempt at taking advantage of people who don't know anything about CPU architectures. Modern CPU designs depend heavily on cache to ensure good performance. To give an example, I have an AMD-K6 233 with 64MB SDRAM (two 32MB SDRAMs to be precise). This is my number two machine at home with FreeBSD on it. It runs fine, except when I want to "buildworld", which is compiling and assembling ALL the FreeBSD sources. This should take around, maybe 8 to 12 hours, I suspect, but it's never gotten thru it without me disabling both L1 and L2 cache systems. When those caches are disabled, it takes almost 48 hours to do the build, but at least it works. After I'm done, I re-enable the cache and everything appears ok. Someone told me about an AMD cache bug, but I believe this is not my problem because that bug gets relief when you lower memory to 32MB or lower. I've used the kernel option MAXMEM to restrict my memory to 32MB or 16MB, to no avail. Anyway, the point is, performance drops rather dramatically when you turn off the cache. I would avoid a Celeron. The AMD 3D does have an integrated L1 cache, but you could get by with a non-3D chip and it would be cheaper. I'd get either a Cyrix or AMD without 3D or MMX for your purpose... Good luck. Others may have ideas they'll send to you too... >let me ask a more broad question to stay on track: for packet filtering >and heavy network usage, how important is cpu and should i give up >on-chip cache to keep the cost of this unit down?

First, would you be interested in FreeBSD, even if it meant ignoring or replacing the CD-ROM ?? You could, potentially, connect a modem and download FreeBSD over the Internet. This, of course, requires a lot of time for a 386, and is only practical if you have unlimited Internet access (flat monthly rate, no per hour charges, no tolls). Another option is to buy a newer IDE or SCSI CD-ROM. But like I said, someone else may have already worked thru your problem and may have another solution.

(IBM's standard allows for no more than four.) But, so does the current scheme (or what am I missing here?). Anything that corresponds to a DOS drive gets a slice number. I meant flexible in that you could partition up your FreeBSD slice without having to worry about fdisk/DOS re-partitioning. But if you call the logical drive /dev/wd0s2a, it's harder to subdivide into BSD partitions (I suppose you could call the partitions /dev/wd0s2aa, wd0s2ab, etc but that looks weird). Or maybe it should go to the SysV style naming of /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 or whatever to get enough levels of subdivisions :-). > What's more, it reflects the hierarchy better; there's no guessing about > the device name of "the second logical DOS drive in the extended DOS > partition."

I thought the current scheme would always have the 2nd logical DOS drive in the extended DOS partition as /dev/wd0s6. Slices 1 thru 4 are defined as the primary partition slices, slice 5 is the first logical, slice 6 is the second logical, etc... On the other hand...if it's possible to have a DOS partition get turned into an extended partition, then I see the point...for instance, if you start off with slice 1 - normal partition slice 2 - normal partition slice 3 - Extended partition slice 5 - 1st logical drive slice 6 - 2nd logical drive slice 4 - empty then you turn slice 2 into an extended partition keeping slice 3 as an extended partition, then you have trouble because you can't predict the slice numbers that get assigned to the logical drive inside slice 3. Is the number of logical drives in an extended partition limited to 4 as well? If so, then you would end up with slices numbers 5-8 assigned to the 1st set of logical drives and 9-12 assigned to the 2nd set of logical drives, I imagine.

That's right. This is one of the problems. The names should reflect the hierarchical structure, and the names of the logical drives should NOT be affected by what's in the other slices. >Is the >number of logical drives in an extended partition limited to 4 as well?

Does that mean it's possible to have more than one extended partitions? If so, then I agree that the current scheme can lead to the slice number uncertainty you describe.

As someone else pointed out, PHP/FI is just PHP now that version 3 is out. A *lot* has changed since it was PHP/FI. Anyway, PHP has built-in functions for connecting to and running queries on databases. Something like this, for example: $conn = mysql_connect($host, $user, $password); mysql_select_db($db_name, $conn); $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn); $array = mysql_fetch_row($result); I, on the other hand, seem to have difficulty getting my mind around DBI/DBD. :) Oh, and Apache/PHP/MySQL runs great on FreeBSD.

I need to be able to automate deleting these records. When I do this: grep -e "unique_string" -A 13 -B 2 database.file it works fine and shows me the record, and only the record. I thought I could use the -v flag like this: grep -e "unique_string" -A 13 -B 2 -v database.file to get an output of everything BUT the record, and from that point it's a piece of cake. however, that command returns the entire file. i read the man pages about 45 trillion times and i really can't come up with anything else to do. is this even possible with grep or should i just break down and use perl?

According to Maurice Bach, author of "The Design of the UNIX Operating System", UNIX was invented by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and others sketching a file system design on paper which was later implemented by Thompson on a PDP-7 in 1969. He had to assemble the code on a GECOS (Honeywell 635) and move it to the PDP-7 via paper tape!! Bell Labs licensed UNIX to universities at a substantially lower fee than to commercial interests. And most computer companies weren't interested in dropping their own proprietary, lucrative OSs in favor of a "universal" OS. Berkeley, or BerZerkeley, UNIX began as additions to the OS in the form of additional utilities/programs. Bill Joy created the Fast File System, before co-founding Sun. Eventually, Berkeley lost government funding, but it was too late. UNIX now moves forward because of the efforts of religious fanatics, thank God. I've been in this profession for 22yrs, and it becomes a Microsoft world, I'm changing professions. I don't want my good name ruined by Microsoft. They offer the poorest quality Computer Science I've seen over the years.

What you need to do is use fbsdboot.exe under DOS. Create a directory called "c:\freebsd" and place the files "fbsdboot.exe" and "kernel" in it. Execute the command "fbsdboot -D kernel", and you're off just as if you had used the boot floppy! These files can be found in the root directory of CDROM #1 included with The Complete FreeBSD. fbsdboot.exe is easy to find elsewhere, but the special kernel is typically found only compressed and stored within the boot floppy's Unix filesystem. If you want me to send you the file personally, send me e-mail off list. Of course, I would much rather point you to an official FTP site. Also, if anything goes wrong, it would be much easier to have both a floppy drive and the book available.

I'm surprised the "Bible" didn't go into more detail. Without knowing your problem, it's difficult to say. You should understand that you're going to need a separate partition in which to install FreeBSD. I suppose the simple answer is "Read the file INSTALL.TXT in the root directory of the CD-ROM", but that makes assumptions about the CD-ROM, which I don't know. If that doesn't help, you have a number of choices: 1. Make a boot floppy and just try it out. Again, that depends on the CD. 2. Buy "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm), which comes with or without CD-ROMs (we're currently at 2.2.7). If you have trouble with the book, you're assured of my personal attention solving them. 3. Send a message to this mailing list describing in some detail what problems you have. You might fine http://www.lemis.com/questions.html to be of use here.

I've seen several posts that claim that MySQL costs. The mySQL web page (http://www.tcx.se/Manual_chapter/manual_Licensing_and_Support.html) states: 3 Licensing or When do I have/want to pay for MySQL? Basic licensing issues: + The easiest way to pay for MySQL is to use the license form at TcX's secure server at https://www.tcx.se/license.htmy + We hope everybody understands that you only have to pay if you are selling MySQL directly or selling a product which includes the MySQL server. You may not include MySQL in a distribution if you charge for some part of it. For internal use you do not have to pay us if you do not want to. + The client code is in the Public Domain or under the GPL (readline). You do not need a license to include client code in commercial programs. + We may add some additional functionality in the commercial version. The likely test candidate for this is fast compressed read-only databases. The current server includes support to read such databases but not the packing tool. If we get enough revenue from support we will probably release this under the same license as the other stuff. + But if you like MySQL and want to encourage further development you are welcome to purchase a license or support. Unless I don't understand english, point #2 tell me clearly that there is no charge to simply use mySQL -- even commercially. Please correct me if I'm wrong...

We're trying to do a network install, however, the boot floppy does not recognize the 3com 3c905B card in our computer. This also happened with the Red Hat 5.1 install disk (the 905B is not the same as the 905) so we had to modify the Red Hat bootkernel by downloading the latest driver from Donald Becker's page and modifying the kernel image. However, being a BSD newbie, I don't know how to do this for FreeBSD. We'd like to try using FreeBSD because we have some rather large boxes doing Squid proxy work (512MB memory) and I had this idea that FreeBSD "works better" on big, heavily loaded boxes than Linux (or maybe, we just don't know how to tweak /proc/sys/kernel on Linux!!)

I can't figure out what's wrong with the code. I'd really appreciate it if you could tell me how to make it work. Thank you very much.

Thanks to my friend Chip Norkus who provided me with the basics of the termcap sequences, and helped me with some details of how they work. I made reference to the "termcap" file that comes with the FreeBSD distribution, the xterm source code, and the "ctlseqs.ms," both from XFree86 3.3.2.3. Of course I also used the Bash man pages. The information in this article is specific to Bash version 2.x. Although the general information about xterm and ANSI escape sequences is probably applicable to other shells, I have not tested it, and have no intention of doing so. Those using Bash 1.14.x can accomplish most of the things mentioned here by using the octal equivalents of the various escape sequences (e.g., substituting \033 for \e, \007 for \a, etc.) and deleting the \[ and \] characters that indicate the boundaries of the non-printable portions of the prompt to Bash 2. This was tested briefly, but I give no guarantees that what you want to do with Bash 1.14 will work. If you need help with the basics of creating a prompt string, please see the PROMPTING section of the Bash man page. By including escape sequences in your prompt you can affect various aspects of the terminal you are using; be that an xterm, console device, or other terminal emulation. For example, xterm has the following built in escape sequences (from misc.c in the xterm source): 0: /* new icon name and title*/ 1: /* new icon name only */ 2: /* new title only */ Here is a simple example of a prompt using those attributes. PS1='\[\e]1;My Desk\a\e]2;${PWD}\a\]\ [\u@ME \w]\n \#\$ ' To make things easier to read, I used a \ at the end of the first line (which is interpreted by the shell as literally escaping the Return at the end of that line) to continue the string onto the next line. You can use all the examples in this article as they are here, or you can join the lines. Make sure to delete the \ if you join them. Here is how to interpret the elements of that line. PS1= set the shell variable PS1 equal to the string between the two ' marks. Since this variable is only used by Bash, there is no need to export it. \[ start a sequence of non-printing characters \e an ASCII escape character (033 octal) ]1; xterm escape sequence for the name of the icon (works for window managers like AfterStep) My Desk literal text string \a an ASCII bell character (007 octal) This ends the first xterm sequence. \e]2;${PWD}\a Put the present working directory in the xterm titlebar. I like to use ${PWD} here because \w puts ~ in the title when you use just 'cd' to return to your home. \] ends the non-printing character sequence [\u@ME \w] [ literal [ character \u the username of the current user @ME literal characters \w the current working directory ] literal ] character \n newline \# the command number of this command \$ if the effective UID is 0, a #, otherwise a $ Here are some examples of the prompt itself using the above string. While I am in my home directory: [myusername@ME ~] 22$ Another directory: [myusername@ME /usr/ports/shells/bash2] 23$ Now assume you would like to add color to your prompt. The following will make your prompt a lovely shade of blue, with the caveat that not all ANSI sequences display exactly the same on all terminals. PS1='\[\e]1;My Desk\a\e]2;${PWD}\a\ \e[0;34m\]\ [\u@ME \w]\n \#\$ \ \[\e[m\]' The astute reader will notice that there are two changes to the previous string. Before the first \] which indicates the end of the non-printing sequence, the ANSI escape code for the color blue was added. \e[ ANSI escape sequence indicator 0; use the default attribute (i.e., no bold, underline, etc.) 34 use blue for the foreground color m end of ANSI escape indicator At the end of the prompt we have included another set of non-printable characters with the ANSI escape sequence for "cancel all attributes." This will prevent the text you type in at the prompt from being colored, or otherwise affected. Two very popular uses of color are to indicate that the user has become root, and to use different colors for prompts on different hosts. Because I log into machines on a lot of different hosts, I have developed the following prompt system which allows me to simply change the two variables below for each host. PROMPT_HOSTNAME='ME' PROMPT_COLOR='0;34m' # If I am root, set the prompt to bright red if [ ${UID} -eq 0 ]; then PROMPT_COLOR='1;31m' fi PS1='\[\e]1;${PROMPT_HOSTNAME}\a\e]2;${PROMPT_HOSTNAME}:${PWD}\a\ \e[${PROMPT_COLOR}\]\ [\u@${PROMPT_HOSTNAME} \w]\n \#\$ \ \[\e[m\]' There are other ANSI attributes that can be added, such as bold, inverse (or reverse) video, blink and underline. Not all attributes are supported on all terminals however. For example, the blink attribute is not available on xterm. Underline is generally not available on cons25. A little experimentation with your terminal type will show you what you need to do to achieve the effect you want. A chart with the most common escape sequences of interest; and which ones are supported on xterm, cons25 and vt100 terminals is appended to the end of this article. If your system uses terminfo instead of termcap, your escape codes may be different. Let us say that you would like the hostname part of the prompt to be in reverse video so that it stands out more than the rest. PS1='\[\e[0;34m\]\ [\u@\e[7mME\e[27m \w]\n \#\$ \ \[\e[m\]' The \e[7m sequence is the code for reverse video. On an xterm you can use the sequence \e[27m to cancel the reverse attribute. On other terminals you would either have to use \e[m to cancel all attributes (which works fine if you are not using color) or use the same color sequence you used previously to reset only the color attribute. If you have the same .bash_profile/.bashrc on a machine that you log into from different terminal types, you may find the following to be of use. This allows you to customize your prompt according to what attributes are supported based on the various types of terminals you use. PROMPT_HOSTNAME='ME' PROMPT_COLOR='0;34m' # If I am root, set the prompt to bright red if [ ${UID} -eq 0 ]; then PROMPT_COLOR='1;31m' fi case ${TERM} in xterm*) PS1='\[\e]1;${PROMPT_HOSTNAME}\a\e]2;${PROMPT_HOSTNAME}:${PWD}\a\ \e[${PROMPT_COLOR}\][\u@${PROMPT_HOSTNAME} \w]\n \#\$ \[\e[m\]' ;; vt100) PS1='[\u@${PROMPT_HOSTNAME} \w]\n \#\$ ' ;; *) PS1='\[\e[${PROMPT_COLOR}\][\u@${PROMPT_HOSTNAME} \w]\n \#\$ \[\e[m\]' ;; esac Below is a chart of various interesting attributes for prompting purposes. The first column is a description of the attribute. The second column is the termcap code for that attribute. For more information check 'man 5 termcap'. If the escape code listed does not work for your terminal, check the termcap file for your machine. Those using the terminfo system should check that file and the documentation for it to find the information they need. The last three columns contain the codes for the various terminals, if they are supported. Below this chart is a very long and rather obnoxious prompt string that gives examples of these attributes, and should allow you to test your terminal to see what it can support. It also has the various color codes so you can use it as a reference as well. The bold attribute when combined with a color has the effect of "brightening" the color displayed. On some terminals this makes it an entirely different color. When creating an escape sequence, you can combine the various elements. For example, if you want a string that is bold, underlined, with a red foreground and a green background you would use: \e[1;4;31;42m To read this chart, keep in mind that an ANSI escape sequence starts with \e[ and ends with a literal m. Thus from the chart, the code to turn on the bold attribute is \e[1m. The \e[m sequence turns off all ANSI attributes, and is the only way to cancel things like bold and underline on most terminals. Obviously, "NO" means that terminal does not support that attribute. The ^G for bell is the traditional "hold down the Control key and press G" combination. It can of course be represented in a Bash 2 prompt string with \a. On most terminals, "inverse" and "standout" are identical. Attribute termcap xterm cons25 vt100 --------------------------------------------- bold on md 1 1 1 bold off 22 [m inverse on mr 7 7 7 inverse off 27 [m standout on so 7 7 7 standout off se 27 [m [m underline on us 4 NO 4 underline off ue 24 [m blink on mb NO 5 5 blink off 25 [m [m blank/invis mk 8 bell bl ^G ^G ^G all attr off me [m [m [m Here is a sample prompt with the list of color codes included. Where more than one color is indicated it means that color displays differently on different terminal types. Other colors may be similarly affected.

Right, I tried sysinstall again yesterday and it worked!! I installed a few packages and all was ok, a few minutes later I tried it again, and it dumped core :( I then left the machine for about 5 minutes, and it still dumped core but I was able to do a little more on sysinstall before it crashed again. Funny thing, Linux never had any problems with the machine, but many of times it did kick 'ide0: timeout' then followed by 'ide0: reset' I used to get this error about 10 times a day.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'm currently trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a machine that has a 3Com 3C905B NIC. During the boot (from floppy) it detects the NIC, but says that . It detects the PCI NIC on irq 12. In the FreeBSD (revision 2) manual that I purchased from Walnut Creek, it says that vx0 support the 3c9xx cards? But all the other documentation I've found says nothing about the 3c9xx cards. Is this NIC supported by FreeBSD at all? If not, when will it have support for it? Also, on install from the boot floppy, choosing -cv from the boot option. going into the userconfig and removing all the CONF entries and modifying to the correct hardware (with the exception of the NIC) so that nothing conflicts. Choose Q and then S to save.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Good Afternoon, I have a fairly high-traffic NFS server running FreeBSD 2.2.6 using nfsv3 to all FreeBSD 2.2.6 clients. One of the things that I notice on it is that there are hundreds of .nfsA3d7a4.4 files hanging around. I know that these are some type of nfs temporary files, and that they are normally supposed to be removed, but I have some on there from August 17th. I have removed them without problem before, but I am curious as to what is causing them, and wondering if it is related to another problem we are having. These .nfs files often contain all the information that certain lockfiles are supposed to contain. Since the lockfiles should only exist for a second or two, I don't know if the lockfiles are actually being created or not, and that scares me a bit. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Also, The NFS network is isolated and used only for NFS... are there any options (NFSv2, udp/tcp, etc) that would be beneficial to use? Thanks in advance, Jay K.

Our mail server is a slave NIS server, and at some random times when there's more than a few sendmail processes running, it'll dead peg ypserv on CPU. And then, sometimes when it does THAT, ypserv will wig out totally, stop handling and requests, eat 100% CPU time, and refuse to restart after we kill it. That should not be; I'm watching sendmail in another window, and we're talking about ~20 sendmail processes, on a Pentium Pro with SCSI drives. It shouldn't be working half as hard as it is, and certainly shouldn't be dying on us. Is this a known problem, or some interaction between sendmail and ypserv that I'm not aware of? I have sendmail's resource limits cranked down way low now, I run the queue manually every so often (that spawns a lot of processes and kills the machine right quick), and I have top running constantly in a window on the corner of my screen so I can kill sendmail when it gets pegged quickly. But I'd kinda like to resolve this so I could get some sleep, and not have to worry about our mail server dying under what is really a pretty small mail load.

An artifact of stateless servers: you can't do a remove over nfs, since it is impossible to ever know that a file is not used, since there is no server state that could tell you such a thing. In fact you're not really safe removing .nfsxxxx files unless they're pretty old, since again you can't know that there is not some client out there that may not have accessed it for a few days, but may still be paging code from it at some point (think: /usr/local/bin/whatever). So check in the nfs client-side code for the silly rename that redirects the unlink operations to renaming a file to .nfsxxxxx, so that it is not found the next time it is looked up. There you can see how it works. Sometimes you see funny things like people removing .nfs files from a client, which of course results in different .nfsxxxx files. You have to remove these clunkers via (typically) cron jobs on the server. Lock files would certainly create these. run NFS over tcp if you possibly can. ron Ron Minnich |"Using Windows NT, which is known to have some rminnich@sarnoff.com | failure modes, on a warship is similar to hoping (609)-734-3120 | that luck will be in our favor"- A.

Using the DOS-based tools, I successfully built the RAID, specifying "other" as the operating system (as per a message posted by Simon Shapiro, the author of the DPT drivers). Everything appears normal at this point. I then boot with the FreeBSD 2.2.7 boot floppy and do the visual configuration thing. The RAID "drive" is picked up by dpt0, and the reported size is correct. The rest of the installation -- partitioning, labelling, etc. -- proceeds normally. I select "Commit" to get the ball rolling, and this is where things stop going so well. newfs runs successfully on sd0s1a. Then on either sd0s1e or sd0s1f newfs hangs. By "hangs" I mean that the message "Doing newfs -b 8192 -f 1024 /mnt/dev/rsd0s1f" remains on the screen forever (I tried letting it run for twelve hours), and the only disk activity is what sounds like a short disk access every second or so. On the second virtual console is a long list of numbers, separated by commas. I've done the above a half dozen times, and the last number that appears is always 13828128, if that means anything. I don't know where to proceed from here. This same RAID setup has been running successfully with NT for the last year or so, so I'm reasonably sure that the hardware is okay (though I guess you never know). Would I have better luck posting this on freebsd-scsi? I'd considered it, but the list charter seems to indicate that the list is for SCSI developers rather than for people having SCSI problems.

They're files that have been unlinked but not closed on the client; because NFS is stateless they can't be unlinked on the server (there's no indication that the client has the file open, because there's no state...).

First, try to get a working tunnel as per the example in ppp.conf.sample. Assuming you can do that, you should then be able to do it via ssh with something like: set device !/etc/ppp/secure-connection and create /etc/ppp/secure-connection (with execute permissions): #! /bin/sh exec &0 exec ssh -f -L 1234:theothermachine:theothermachinesport theothermachine sleep 20 theothermachine is the machine name of the peer, and theothermachinesport is the port number that you used in /etc/services on the peer to listen for the incoming ppp connection.

Instead of using fetch, get the archives manually and put them in /usr/ports/distfiles/xc. That way, you can ``reget'' (in ftp) if your connection drops. > Dave E.

On one of our web servers we have 60 IP aliased to the ethernet interface. rsh to another server doesn't work because the 'from' IP address of the server seems to be randomly picked from and of the IP's that are aliased to the ethernet interface. I would think that the correct behavior is to always use the first ip address that the interface was set to (non-aliased). Can someone suggest a workaround or a fix?

If you use xauth list $DISPLAY in a valid window, clip the "MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE abc123....90" and enter xauth add $DISPLAY you'll stay secure. xhost + other.machine lets anyone on that machine launch to your display.

System hangs for 1 minute or so and then comes back up without actually going into suspend mode. I tried with kernel having options APM_BROKEN_STATCLOCK commented either in and out. I also tried with pcmcia cards inserted and with out. Every time system hangs for a minute or so. Could it be because it is trying to suspend sio1 which is one of the cards, but sio1 is compiled into the kernel: device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 7 vector siointr (yes, I have printer disabled - I needed an irq and that was only one available). Here is what I get on my screen when I run zzz: sio1: unload,gone Return IRQ=7 Card disabled, slot 0 ep0: unload Return IRQ=10 Card disabled, slot 1 Sometimes I don't get any output: as soon as I hit enter after I type zzz system hangs, screen doesn't suspend and then system wakes up a minute later. Ugh.. almost forgot to mention - I am not using PAO since I want to do make world. The laptop is Dell Latitude CP and OS is 2.2.7-STABLE as of few days ago.

I created a video memory requirements spreadsheet back when I contracted at IBM in the Install group supporting video driver installations. At the time, I was in the market for a new video board, and I wanted a board that would support 16.7 million colors so I could have photographs as wallpaper (worked out REAL COOL). At the time, 4 MB boards were pricey, so I bought a 2MB board. That meant I could use 800x600, which was cool by me. >From the chart, you can see how limited your options are with the built-in cirrus video. I'd disable that (you can usually find a jumper on the mo'board, if you look long enough) and install at least a 4MB board these days. But be careful, check the supported card list for XFree86 before you buy. I recently bought an STB Velocity 128 for my daughter's computer and it's barely supported by XFree at this point. I can only get 256 at 640x480 to work correctly. Of course, part of my problem is the dinky 15 inch Compudyne monitor attached to it. Your Mileage May Vary...

Everything is working great, however, I've noticed that I get intermittent error messages in my log. ed1 is the card connecting to the outside campus network, and ed0 is for my internal network. bash-2.02$ tail /var/log/messages Sep 1 18:01:17 icarus /kernel: ed1: device timeout Sep 1 20:27:07 icarus arpwatch: new station 169.229.87.128 0:80:c8:4d:c8:dd Sep 1 20:35:10 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2076 Sep 1 21:06:40 icarus ftpd[18807]: ANONYMOUS FTP LOGIN REFUSED FROM gri-87-78.R eshall.Berkeley.EDU Sep 1 21:37:53 icarus /kernel: ed1: device timeout Sep 1 21:42:49 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2051 Sep 1 22:01:21 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2106 Sep 1 22:04:27 icarus /kernel: ed1: device timeout Sep 1 22:05:22 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2298 Sep 1 22:07:47 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2157 Sep 1 22:51:04 icarus /kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 2079 bash-2.02$ uptime 4:19PM up 3 days, 4:13, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.02, 0.00 bash-2.02$ netstat -i Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll ed0 1500 00.80.c8.0a.2f.c3 170504 12 208012 0 58 ed0 1500 10 sandbox.leonard 170504 12 208012 0 58 ed1 1500 00.80.ad.73.eb.fe 12751130 9481366 185136 5 14601 ed1 1500 169.229.87/24 icarus 12751130 9481366 185136 5 14601 lp0* 1500 0 0 0 0 0 tun0* 1500 0 0 0 0 0 sl0* 552 0 0 0 0 0 ppp0* 1500 0 0 0 0 0 lo0 16384 265 0 265 0 0 lo0 16384 your-net localhost.Berke 265 0 265 0 0 Does anybody know what may be causing this? It seems as though there are a heck of a lot of input errors. ed1 is an NE2000 clone, while ed0 is a NE1000 clone. Also, what sort of IPFW rules should I use to prevent others not on my internal network (using the 10.0.0.0/24 address block) from using my computer as a gateway? I'd also like the computer to log any rejected packets. I've recompiled my kernel with IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE, but when the computer starts up, it still says that logging is disabled (and strangely, it says divert is also). What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help and keep up the good work!

Note that if the server goes down *and* the client goes down, you may be left with "stale" versions of these files, which you then have to manually remove. As a general rule, you should "find" files matching this name format and older than twice the longest reasonable expected use of an unlinked file by a client to delete them. The others may still be in use. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.

I do not know why, but it is crashing down almost every hour!!! I have been using X and while I use it I could not see the error report. I started to work in text mode and I tried to repeat the problem (very hard work with Latex and friends). Finally, I got: Fatal trap 12 page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address= 0xcc4831c fault code= supervisior read page not present. ... Something else related to stack pointer, program counter, etc. ... the problem is happening often, and I'm starting to cry. I do not know what I did wrong. This problem is very serious, one of my hard disks got its superblock corrupted and I hardly could recover my information. I formatted the disk, and installed FreeBSD 2.2.7, FOUR times!!! I returned to version 2.2.6 and I have the same problem, but my file systems remain healty. I suppose it has something to do with my computer itself and not with the operating system. I suposse I have to custom something in my BIOS. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ???? Thanks in advance. sincerly, a soul in pain...

Yesterday, I tried to install FreeBSD with ftp from your primary server over my ethernet card. To get the system to recognize my ethernet card i had to change settings on the boot disk kernel. The way I chose to partition my disk was: / 32M swap 64M /var 30M /usr 394M I decided to install the "user" source kit. Everything was fine and it finished installing in about a half hour to hour. But when the system rebooted for the first time, it did not find the ethernet card. All of the settings I had chosen for the initial kernel were gone. It instead loaded the default kernel. So I could no longer connect to the network. I decided I would update my installation to the "developer" source kit so I could change the kernel. So I used the boot disk and began to download the files for the developer source kit, but within a minute I had run out of disk space. Is my hard drive too small for the developer source kit? Can you recommend a better way to partition my hard drive? Should I even try to run FreeBSD on such an old machine? It would probably help if I told you what I wanted to run on it. Basically, I would like a unix machine to program in C and C++ and possibly to run an Apache web server and or ftp and telnet. If nothing else I would like to use it as a router. Please email me any answers, information, or comments you have. Thank you for your time.

Yes. 1. Choose a keymap file (if you don't have one already, take /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.iso.kbd). Make a copy of it in the same directory, say "us.noreboot.iso.kbd". 2. Edit the file and change all incidences of the word "boot" to "nop" (or something else if you want). 3. Edit /etc/rc.conf and change the line keymap="NO" # keymap in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/* (or NO). to keymap="/usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.noreboot.iso.kbd" 4. If you want the keymap to take effect before the next reboot, enter: # kbdcontrol -l /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.noreboot.iso.kbd Greg -- See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Sep 3 21:07:57 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA19768 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 3 Sep 1998 21:07:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from inet.chipweb.ml.org (c1003518-a.plstn1.sfba.home.com [24.1.82.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id VAA19763 for ; Thu, 3 Sep 1998 21:07:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Message-Id: <199809040407.VAA19763@hub.freebsd.org> Received: (qmail 22101 invoked from network); 4 Sep 1998 04:06:51 -0000 Received: from speedy.chipweb.ml.org (172.16.1.1) by inet.chipweb.ml.org with SMTP; 4 Sep 1998 04:06:51 -0000 X-Sender: ludwigp2@mail-r X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.2 Date: Thu, 03 Sep 1998 21:06:46 -0700 To: Michael Searle , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Ludwig Pummer Subject: Re: SuSE X server for Matrox G200 In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 02:05 AM 9/4/98 +0100, Michael Searle wrote: >I've just checked SuSE's page, and they have an X server for >the Matrox Millenium G200.

I tried the SuSE server under Linux emulation on my 2.2.7-R machine.

If you have the normal dialup account to an ISP you have a DYNAMIC IP meaning it changes with each connection. How are you getting the IP you are dialed into with the fbsd box ? I do the same thing at home. I have my bsd box dial in and I have a script that send me email with my IP address on connection, I also run a domain from ml.org that I update after each connection. and I just telnet to that address. If your IP changes and you have no way to find the IP you will need a STATIC/DEDICATED dial-up to keep the IP the same.

Yes, if you want to dial in to your system from outside, you won't just need a static IP address, you'll also need an ISP who's prepared to dial you. That's a matter you need to talk to him about. Typically, it's easier to get a static address than get the ISP to dial you.

Sender: Alexandre Kireev ak7_7@usa.net This is the original letter I have received. THE SEVENTH PROGRAM A few weeks ago I received a letter from an attorney that said: I am a retired attorney, and about two years ago a man came to me with a letter. The letter he brought to me is the same letter before you now. He asked me to verify that this letter was legal. I told him that I would review it and get back to him. When I first read the letter, I thought it was some off the wall idea to make money. A week later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I told him that the letter originally brought to me was not 100% legal. I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it will be alright. I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it worked. I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating. Before my client left, I asked him to keep me updated as to his results. About two months later he called me to tell me that he had received more than $8OO,OOO.OO in cash!! I didn't believe him so he asked me to try the plan and see for myself. I thought about it for a few days and decided that there was not much to lose. I followed the instructions exactly and mailed out 200 letters. Sure enough the money started coming in! It came slowly at first, but after three weeks I was getting more than I could open in a day. After three months the money stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my earnings and at the end it totaled $868,439.00. I earn a good living as a attorney, but as anyone in the legal profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress that comes with the territory. I decided if things worked out, I would retire from practice and play golf. This time I sent out 500 letters. Well, three months later, I had totaled $2,344,178.00. I met my old client for lunch to find out exactly how it works. He told me that there were a few similar letters going around. What made this one different is the fact that there were seven names on the letter, not five like most others. That fact alone resulted in more returns. The other factor was the advice I gave him in making sure the whole thing was perfectly legal, since no one wants to risk doing anything illegal. I bet now you are curious about what little changes I told him to make. Well if you send a letter like this one out, to be legal, you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar. I told him that anyone sending a dollar must receive something in return. So when you send a dollar to each of the seven names on the list, you must include a slip of paper saying, "Please put me on your mailing list" and include your name, mailing address and e-mail address. This is the key to the program. The item you will receive for your dollar you send, is THIS letter and the right to earn thousands. Follow the simple instructions EXACTLY, and in less than three months you should receive MORE THAN $8OO,OOO.OO IN COLD HARD CASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1) IMMEDIATELY send $1.00 to each of the seven people listed below. THE SOONER YOU SEND THE "$1.00 LETTERS" THE SOONER YOU CAN START GETTING A RETURN! Wrap the dollar in a note saying "Please add me to your mailing list". And include YOUR NAME, MAILING ADDRESS, AND E-MAIL ADDRESS. Remember, if you don't ask for the service, USE OF THIS LETTER WILL BE ILLEGAL FOR YOU. 1.

This is best done by saving this to a file and enter in your information on line #7. Be careful when you type the addresses and PROOFREAD them. Make SURE that the names and addresses are correct. 3) When you have COMPLETED the above instructions your have options on how you market the letter: 1) Through the US Postal Service, or 2) through E-mail to at least 500 people, or 3) through posting in "FREE CLASSIFIED ADS ON THE INTER-NET.

To mail this out over the Internet, you can browse through areas and find people to send this to all the time. All you have to do is cut and paste e-mail addresses wherever you are on the Internet. Or you can use a Mass e-mail Network to mail it out in large volumes for you. We highly recommend this one. They always e-mail more than the amount you purchase and their addresses are fresh. Posting Free Classified Ads on the Internet can achieve results. Simply go to a search engine, Yahoo, Hot Bot, Lycos or any other and type in Free Classified Ads. You will get a list of over 190,000 sites, and start posting ads. Use a catchy title such as FREE MONEY, and post your e-mail address.

We strongly encourage you to mail this letter to family and friends and relatives as well. THIS IS A SERVICE AND IS 100% LEGAL!! (Refer to title 18,section 1302 & 1342 of the US Postal and Lottery Laws), or check it out with the US Post Office 1-800-725-2161. Assume for example you get a 7.5% return rate. My first attempt was about 9.5% and my second was more than 11%. 1) When you mail out 200letters, ONLY 15 people send you $1.00 2) Those 15 people mail out 200 letters, (3000 letters) and ONLY 225 people send you $1.00. 3)Those 225 people mail out 200 letters, (45,000 letters) and ONLY 3,375 people send you $1.00. 4) Those 3,375 people mail out 200 letters(675,000 letter) and ONLY 50,625 people send you $1.00. 5) Those 50,625 people mail out 200 letters (10,000,000 letters) and ONLY 759,375 people send you $1.00. At the Next level your name-drops off the list. Think about it. Look what you WILL have BEFORE your name-drops off the list! It looks unbelievable, I know. Just try it and you will HAPPILY believe because you will receive proof in MANY ONE-DOLLAR BILLS!!!!!!! Just MAKE SURE you send a dollar to each and of the seven names on the list FIRST, (This is VERY IMPORTANT), with a note saying "Please put me on your mailing list". You've read this far, so let me ask you one simple question, WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE? Even with a 1-% return you will still get $1OO,OOO.OO in 90 DAYS! What you can gain is an income, like the example in this letter. You will have a very small expense, but you will reap HUGE potential returns! What do you have to lose? I invite you to JOIN our mailing list RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. So, for a seven dollar investment, I don't think I'll have to worry about money again. When the cash stops coming in from this proposal, I'll just start it all over again. This is the end of original letter. NOTE: One of my friends who does this regularly, told me that the first time he sent out this letter, he sent only the recommended 200 and did "okay". The second time around he mailed 1500 and collected $700,000!!! So what you put into this is what you will get out of it. It is not free money. You are collecting e-mail addresses that you may use personally or give away it does not matter. The individuals participating are subscribing to a service upon which their names and e-mail addresses will be added. You work hard for your dollar bills. HERE IS NEW FEATURES I PROMISED YOU TO TELL ABOUT: 1.You can use http://www.uran.net/imall/FREE_Sites_A-H.html to put your ad for free. 2. You can use http://www.altavista.digital.com/ to find more than 11000 URL's of free classified ads sites to promote youself. Just enter free+classified+ads into search window. 3. The 7th Program Participants Association has designed a new site where you can economize your time and money. The URL is requested not to be put into the letter. Just ask me I shall tell you. Make your dreams come true! Jump in. There is so little to lose and so much to gain! Best Wishes and Good Luck!!

Well, I tried this package the other night, but all it did was coredump as soon as I attempted to run the self-tests. I downloaded it directly from the original site (didn't use a package / port). Then, after seeing that fail, I tried to make the port, but it shows up as "broken"...?

So I'll try again: I have one text file with many records. Each record is 16 lines long. The record's identifier is always the third line because it's unique. The records look like this: ################################## # --->uniquerecordname ################################## recorddata 12 more lines worth. I am writing a script which will automate deleting the records. Here's what I've done: grep -e "uniquerecordname" -A 13 -B 2 #this yields the record correctly. however, grep -e "uniquerecordname" -A 13 -B 2 -v #does NOT yield the inverse, which should be the rest of the file without the record. i've tried outputting the grep result in the first example to a new file, and then doing a diff on the two -- that works, but it puts a > in the beginning of each line, which is unacceptable. Is there any other way to do this that I haven't thought of yet?

Well, it does, sort of. :) The -v is applied first. Then, any matches are expanded to show the -AB context. Since you don't have a run of 16 consecutive lines with "uniquerecordname" in them, the leading/trailing context on every non-matching line overlaps your one match, and grep ends up printing every line. > i've tried outputting the grep result in the first example to a new > file, and then doing a diff on the two -- that works, but it puts a > > in the beginning of each line, which is unacceptable.

Well, it's quite likely that 2.2.7 will be better than 2.2.6, since I beleive it will have been extensively tested before being classed as a -RELEASE version.

I'd also like to use the machine as a network monitor. I downloaded a package (trafshow-2.0) which requires the berkely packet filter to be enabled. In the FreeBSD handbook, there's a paragraph that talks about the bpfilter and how it can be a security risk to your network. What are the security risks of running bpfilter, and how should I set it up?

Machines with 4GB DRAM are now available at reasonable cost (e.g. Dell PowerEdge 6300 ~= $25K). So I have several questions: a) Is there any theoretical reason (e.g. hard split of virtual address space) why FreeBSD couldn't handle 4GB of physical DRAM; or >2GB in a single user process ? b) Has anyone tried this in practice ? c) Is anyone running FreeBSD on Pentium Xeon machines ? In particular, 4-way SMP Xeon machines. d) I've heard a rumour that Linux has a hard 2GB limit - does anyone have details of this ? e) The third alternative is Solaris on x86 - if anyone knows about big-memory issues with this environment I'd be very interested.

Hawkins Esq." Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to figure out a usable way to set up my harddisk. At the moment, at least until I have thigns figured out, the system still needs to run linux most of the time. What I want to do in the interim is to share /home and /usr/src between FreeBSD &linux. As linux can't write to ufs, this means that ome has to be a an ext2fs partition. from reading the bsd/linux Howto, It seems that bsd can only recognize primary ext2 partitions, and not extended partitions. This makes minimal sense to me, as the installation documents suggest that bsd *can* use extended dos partitions. So, somehow, I need to figure a way to pack the five partitions I need into the four allowed primary partitions. I need: 1) somewhere in the first 1023 to stuff kernels for linux & bsd. 2) a freebsd partition 3) an extended partition, where much of linux can live 4) the shared partition 5) a dos partition (need to check kids games under dosemu & wine :) I can see possible ways to solve these. If bsd can read the dos extemded partition, it goes in the same extended partition as the linux stuff. Or if bsd can read/write logical ext2fs partitions, there's no problems. But each of these seems to violate one or another of the constraints. Is there a civilized way out of this? thanks rick -- These opinions will not be those of ISU until it pays my retainer.

Unfortunately, there may be ways for normal users to gain root privileges via exploits against setuid programs or privileged daemons (although I don't know of any exploits to which 3.0-current or 2.2-stable systems are vulnerable). If you are concerned about this possibility, and if untrustworthy users are allowed on a system that has the bpfilter in the kernel, remove the setuid bits on any programs that aren't used and turn off any unused daemons that aren't needed. Be sure any remaining daemons in use don't have known security issues (such as an older version of qpopper). See Robert Watson's suidcontrol program (http://www.watson.org/fbsd-hardening/suidcontrol.html) if you want help with reviewing the setuid programs on your system.

Oops.. That's a typo. the sed line should read sed -e "${start},${end}d" < $file > $file.tmp i.e. a "," instead of a "-". I believe there are O'Reilly books on both sed and awk. Awk is good for field-based processing (summing columns, etc), and sed is good for line-based processing.

My system is toast and I can't get the console messages captured. I was practising the system restore based on section 9.3.8 on my reserve system running 2.2.7. I had not run newfs as I was more interested in figuring out how to mount the file systems and accessing the backup tapes than in actually generating a completely new file system. This would have in theory left me with a workable system if the emergency boot disks failed. When I booted up on the floppy disk created by the script from 9.3.8 (with MINI kernel also from script) the last console message was something like "changing boot device to /dev/fd0s5" then the system hung. When I power cycled the box in an attempt to boot off of the hard disk I got a message saying something like "/dev/fd0 not accessable" and a final message asking me to tell it where the shell is. After getting a shell started I attempted to "mount /floppy" which resulted in a message "isa timeout...." "/dev/fd0 busy" and then a panic attack followed by a reboot. On the next reboot I went to /sys/compile/GENERIC and did a "make install" in a vain attempt at restoring sanity by forcing a reinstall of a known working kernel. The install procedure worked but the next reboot generated the same error messages as the previous one. So it appears that the emergency repair floppy changed some default behavior about how the system boots that I don't grok.

Any suggestions? To increase the global amount, adjust the maxusers paramater. i.e. maxusers 64 or maxusers 128 or as explained in the LINT file # Under some circumstances it is convenient to increase the defaults # for the maximum number of processes per user and the maximum number # of open files files per user. E.g., (1) in a large news server, user # `news' may need more than 100 concurrent processes. (2) a user may # need lots of windows under X. In both cases, it may be inconvenient # to start all the processes from a parent whose soft rlimit on the # number of processes is large enough. The following options work by # changing the soft rlimits for init. # options CHILD_MAX=128 options OPEN_MAX=128 Also, check login.conf if its just a particular user issue.

If not forgive the intrusion. I recently loaded freebsd onto a spare hard drive. I have SCSI DAT and as a secondary tape drive I have a QIC-02 Archive controller with a Wangtek 5150 tape drive. The SCSI works fine with tar's and dump's, however I get block errors on the Wangtek. I can do rewinds and erases on the Wangtek, but I can't create or extract with the tar or dump utilities. I tried to reference /dev/nrwt0 and /dev/rwt0 with the same results. When I try to create a tape it sounds as if the drive is trying to position itself, and finishes with no error message. When I try to extract I get block count errors and can't read the tape. This happens with both tar and dump. I tried specifying the block count with tar with the same results. When I set up freebsd I saw no conflicts and when the system boots I show device wt0. I am running freebsd 2.6. I have tried multiple tapes that work on other system, so I am confident with my media. Do I have to make a new device and relink the kernal? I only use this to transport tapes to older systems. Any ideas?

First, the Mashuita Sound Card junk never worked very well at all. It was meant as a Psedu-IDE device. As such, I'm actually surprised that it works under Win95! Some things you might want to check, the I/O address and IRQ on the sound card that controlls the CDROM. Most those sounds cards had two or more jumper blocks, one for sound, one for the CDROM. It's possible that you have a conflict somewhere and don't know it. Second, check you BIOS for PNP devices, change the IRQ's used by the sound card opposite of whatever they're set for right now. This will probally take some experimenting and multiple reboots. Third, replace the CDROM with a newer IDE one if you can, in my opinion, if you've had this much trouble so far, it's not worth using the older CDROM drive.

You should be reading/writing to/from /dev/rst0 for the SCSI variant. You may just be using the wrong device name. Now, I'm not sure you're connecting this to the SCSI side of things; since you mention a QIC-02. I wasn't aware you could put a 5150 on anything but SCSI. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Sep 4 11:56:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA11997 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 4 Sep 1998 11:56:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dsinw.com (dsinw.com [207.149.40.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA11681 for ; Fri, 4 Sep 1998 11:55:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hamellr@dsinw.com) Received: (from hamellr@localhost) by dsinw.com (8.8.8/8.7.3) id LAA04065; Fri, 4 Sep 1998 11:52:58 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 4 Sep 1998 11:52:58 -0700 (PDT) From: rick hamell To: Sourav Ghosh cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Modem problems In-Reply-To: <35F0280C.9D175EEF@cs.cmu.edu> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > The modem works fine with windows.

Is it a USR Winmodem ?? USR made a product line called Winmodem that will ONLY work under windows because they took some code that had previously been burned into EEPROM (or Flash) and put it in a file on the disk. If your modem is a Winmodem, you can't use it with ANY other OS, not OS/2, not Linux, not FreeBSD. Also, be aware that COM1 would be sio0 (or cuaa0 for ppp). I don't know if it really matters if you use sio0 or cuaa0 devices. I think they're just synonyms really.

Unfortunately I have no answer for this, but instead I have a related question ;-) : I have an hercules/cga card as the secondary video adaptor on a 2.2.7-stable (486DX2). Is there a way of having output (let's say the console) in this secondary monitor? I currently have no monitor on the vga primary adaptor.

I've never been able to get FreeBSD to install on VPC, and everyone I have talked to has had a similar experience. However, it has always found the HD. It blows up later in the installation. Do other OSes find it? Can you get to it if you boot from a DOS floppy?

Do you realize that you are setting a 10mb quota for all of user? That means that the total of ALL the files owned by group user cannot come to more than 10mb! If I understand your question correctly, you want to enforce this quota upon each individual user in group user... right? If that's so, I don't know of a way to do it. But there is something else you can use. Setup 1 user with the quota's you want and then use: edquota -p username UID_range. E.g. say all of your "users" have UIDs between 2000 and 4999, and your "prototype" user is is "bob". You could type this... edquota -p bob 2000-4999 Now all users (current and future) with a UID in that range, will have the same quota as "bob". Maybe this will answer your question a little better. > Quotas for group user: > /home: blocks in use: 450549, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) > inodes in use: 1079, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) > > If i understand this right, the current quota is 0 nothing. > > Thank you for your help /* THIS SPACE FOR RENT cjm2@earthling.net */ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Sep 4 17:02:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA00947 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 4 Sep 1998 17:02:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: (from grog@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA00920 for FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.org; Fri, 4 Sep 1998 17:02:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog) Date: Fri, 4 Sep 1998 17:02:17 -0700 (PDT) From: Greg Lehey Message-Id: <199809050002.RAA00920@hub.freebsd.org> To: FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. =================================================== Last update 23 February 1998 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. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction 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 break- ing 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 or -hackers? ========================================= Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. 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, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling 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 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. 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. 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 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 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 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 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?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and 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. 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. 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.

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. Since going to press, a number of anomalies have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the second edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2. I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org). --- Changes: 5 December 1996 --- Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment. Replace with: If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the following steps: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may end up with two different copies of the sources. --- Changes: 28 November 1996 --- Page 135, second paragraph: replace with In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162), or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0 through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual terminals you need: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys Alternatively, you can do this with mknod: # cd /dev # ls -l ttyv0 crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0 # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3 # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4 # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5 # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6 In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the 12, in this example; it may change from one release to another). You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about major and minor device numbers, see page 160. --- Changes: 20 November 1996 --- Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h as shown. Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still* called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through /dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-) The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on page vi. The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this book. --- Changes: 1 November 1996 --- Major changes: 1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications to the text come as a result: Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives. Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the floppy." The resultant text reads: IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives, are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5 support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as slave device. The installation may or may not work--please let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program (see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38). Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for the third box from the bottom of the page should read: If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette. Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39. If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts, page 29. Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The resultant text should read: Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the system. INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further information). 2. Changes to section on installing a second disk. Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read: When the message Three seconds until format begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that, you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk activity lamp will also not light up, and since the scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on the disk, up to 90 minutes. Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a valid partition table. For example, this happened with a disk formatted for BSD/OS: # scsiformat sd1 MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48 Mode data length: 35 Medium type: 0 Device Specific Parameter: 0 Block descriptor length: 8 Density code: 0 Number of blocks: 2051615 Reserved: 0 Block length: 512 PS: 1 Reserved: 0 Page code: 4 Page length: 22 Number of Cylinders: 1760 Number of Heads: 15 Starting Cylinder-Write Precompensation: 0 Starting Cylinder-Reduced Write Current: 0 Drive Step Rate: 0 Landing Zone Cylinder: 0 Reserved: 0 RPL: 0 Rotational Offset: 0 Reserved: 0 Medium Rotation Rate: 5400 Reserved: 0 Reserved: 0 # fdisk sd1 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 0 is: sysid 255,(BBT (Bad Blocks Table)) start 1023744, size 2108293151 (1029440 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 768/ sector 15/ head 147; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 255 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 101,(Novell Netware 3.xx) start 1646292846, size 1814062195 (885772 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 356/ sector 50/ head 0; end: cyl 256/ sector 50/ head 114 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61 beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 The data for partition 3 is: Looking at the output from dmesg, we see: (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors) sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760 cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615 sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77 = 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the disk. Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic" message to: The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table. Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't surprising. It's also completely harmless. Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* to, but not including the next occurrence of this line. Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet * The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here. Page 178, middle of page: after # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161 insert When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless chicken and egg problem. Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the first line to the example: # newfs /dev/rsd1h Further down the page, the last example should also read # newfs /dev/rsd1h 3. Other changes Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition". Add the text: It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to install from extended partitions. Page 136, bottom: Add the text If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If you're running X, open another window and use su to become root. If you're running in character mode, select another virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're sure you can still access root should you log out. Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add: Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to build the cross-references. Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should read: ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to: lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you can comment out the definitions of the printers which you don't have. Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec 274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller" Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these bugs.

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. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list 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 book 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 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. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ 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 Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ 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 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and 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 Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson 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). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes 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. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly 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. Page 140 ________ 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 # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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: 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 Page 9 Install ports when installing the system 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. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ 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 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): Page 11 Install ports when installing the system === 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. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # 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 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in Page 13 Starting the spooler the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ 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 number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use 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 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ 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. Page 294 ________ 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 Page 15 Starting the spooler problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 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 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ 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: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ 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 Page 17 Starting the spooler 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. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%. Page 1620 _________ The description of /etc/hosts.lpd erroneously refers to the file /etc/ftpusers. This should be /etc/hosts.lpd, of course.

Star Division is in the process of releasing ver 5 and also establishing a US office in CA. I sent email to the FreeBSD guy that's responsible for the StarOffice port and also to their US division, but haven't gotten a reply back yet. Thanks to the backstabbing Caldera people, there may only be a Linux port. I'd like to see if we can mount a campaign.

The others may still be in use. So what is _supposed_ to happen to these files? is the nfs server supposed to remove them automatically? Or are they just supposed to hang around till I kill them on the server? Also, I read in a couple mailing list archive messages that the nfsv3 in 2.2.x is not stable, is this true? should I be using nfsv2?

I don't know if the not-my-patches have been applied to -current, but I'd be surprised if they were in 2,2,7-stable.

The problem is the switch doesn't "know" the MAC address of the server when it try to access to the external software server and refuse to open the virtual circuit... It seems that the install procedure do not "send" its MAC address ( that is send some eth packets ) before trying to NFS mount our file server. Any of you has experienced the same ?

Also, there is a stand alone program (freeware) I saw on the web somewhere that will do the job too. I can't remember the address off hand but I will have a look for it again. It was mentioned in the mailing list freebsd-questions several months ago, if I remember rightly (where I found out about it?) - you could try searching the archives for the reference. rgds Chris R.

I think this six-months-late message doesn't help Malcolm, but sending this to the -questions list for a record may be a help for guys who try to connect to CompuServe in the future. This message explains how you can connect FreeBSD userland PPP (aka IIJPPP) to the CompuServe PPP access points. Malcolm was partly correct; connecting to CompuServe PPP requires a *unique* login script which is something different from the sample come with FreeBSD distribution. However, once you can login to the network, the standard PPP tools work fine. There are three important *secrets* to know when connecting to CompuServe PPP. (1) Use "seven bits, even parity" line setting when running the login script. (2) You must send a CR (ASCII 0x0D) just after the modem connects, without waiting for any prompt. It may not be trivial how you can let the CHAT driver to do so, but there is a way. (See below.) (3) Your CompuServe ID must be followed by a magic command word "/go:pppconnect" when you want to connect with PPP. The login conversation will be something like this: YOU (CR only) CIS Host Name: YOU CIS CIS User ID: YOU 99999,9999/go:pppconnect CIS Password: YOU XXXXXXXX where YOU means the message you (your PC) must send and CIS means the prompt sent from the CompuServe access point. All messages you send must be terminated with a CR (ASCII 0x0D.) The entire conversation is performed with seven bits, even parity setting. The following is an excerpt from my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf which I'm using for more than two years. (Not so frequently, however, since I'm living in Japan and I use CompuServe PPP only when I visit U.S. :-) --- cis: set phone 1-408-980-1044 set parity even set login "TIMEOUT 10 \"\" \"\" Name: CIS ID: 99999,9999/go:pppconnect word: XXXXXXXX" set timeout 300 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 delete ALL add 0 0 HISADDR --- Note that: (1) '99999,9999' must be replaced with your CompuServe ID, and 'XXXXXXX' the password. 'set login" through XXXXXXX"' must be written on one line. (2) "set parity even" on the third line instructs PPP to use "seven bit, even parity" mode during login session. The PPP daemon automatically change the mode to "eight bit, no parity" when it successfully logs in and about to start PPP negotiation. (3) Specify \"\" \"\" as the first login conversation. This lets the PPP CHAT driver to send a CR just after the modem connetion is established. (It actually means "wait for nothing, then send an empty.")

I get a bunch of errors from the include files. Some of the errors are: /usr/include/sys/socket.h - parse error before 'send' ...... - parameter has incomplete tpe ...... - data definition has no type or storage class. These errors come from more that one include file and only appear to be coming from files that are in subdirectories of ./include. Even if I try to compile a simple 'hello world' c program with socket.h, inet.h, and some others as includes i still get all those errors. If I take out the references, the errors go away. I've got the programs to compile once and I can't remember what I did. Is it possible that there could be something with the permissions going on here? I think I might have been logged in as root when I was able to compile things without any errors. Is there something I might be missing when I set up the user I'm logged in as? Thanks in advance.

In a recent posting, a FreeBSD user said the versions after 3.1 required a lot of hacking to get to work under FreeBSD and the reason FreeBSD didn't get a port is because Caldera made a deal with StarDivision to not release it on any other free BSD, et.al. What's the explanation for why FreeBSD's port collection contains a port from two years ago ?? >> I do not know if the filter support in ver 5 will convert Excel, Word, >> and Powerpoint files. > >I think you'll find that Microsoft's formats are copyrighted, and >StarDivision won't be allowed to supply converters.

To the majority of people, HTML formatted mail comes across as a load of unintelligible rubbish. It can add greatly to the payload of each email.

I don't want or need to know what particular software someone has in order for me to send him or her a message - it is implicit that the recipient will be able to read my message by virtue of the fact that they have an email address, that email is for plain text and that I am sending plain text. If I want them to see HTML, I put a link in my message that they can cut 'n paste to a browser. Similarly, I know that if I make a website that people will access it with a browser, and it is implicit that the browser can understand HTML therefore the user can see what the browser understands. Of course, I could mention that the htmlisation of email is a micro$oft conspiracy to webify everything to the desktop but I don't want to start a religious war, and anyway I'd be paranoid to think this :) -- John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Sep 5 08:11:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA00154 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 08:11:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-11.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.40]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA00109; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 08:11:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from freebsd-root@i-zone.demon.co.uk) Received: from [158.152.227.78] (helo=i-zone.demon.co.uk) by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.02 #1) id 0zFJyq-0003Oe-00; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 15:10:25 +0000 Message-ID: Date: Tue, 1 Sep 1998 17:12:10 +0100 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG From: John Subject: ze & zp pcmcia ethernet question MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Turnpike (32) Version 4.00 <8P7LwQhRCnIWQRT3OpZyTlnKDO> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi Experts (also posted to freebsd-mobile) I need to know if anyone has got either ze or zp to work with the Kingston KNE-PCM/M PCMCIA ethernet card.

Microsoft is making the computer an easy to use thing via point-and-click, that brings the computer to those who would otherwise never have one, which in turn makes M$ more money. HTML in email is just taking it one step further, and while I can understand the reasoning I don't agree with it. Making the computer accessible to the masses means sacraficing the knowledge that could be gained from understanding the environment. Now the point I'm getting at here is that HTML is the language specification designated for the www so that people across multiple platforms can share information. I never send anyone email in HTML because I want to be sure that whoever is receiving my email will be able to read it irregardless of what application they choose to view their mail with. -- Bob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Sep 5 09:05:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA07165 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 09:05:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from server.local.red ([195.77.76.203]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA07151 for ; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 09:04:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from angeloso@islatortuga.com) From: angeloso@islatortuga.com Received: from angeloso (angel.local.red [10.0.0.2]) by server.local.red (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id SAA00105; Sat, 5 Sep 1998 18:04:37 +0200 Date: Sat, 5 Sep 1998 18:04:37 +0200 Subject: 3-S, todo un exito, y ahora, ŋque?

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Recently I installed Xfree and then KDE. It worked for a few days and then yesterday Xfree stopped working for any user other than root. After searching archives/FAQ I found a note on running "X -probeonly 2>some file name". I did. The output did not have any errors. I did notice on another console that there was an error about "non present SYSVMSG". Recompiled my kernel with SYSVMS (FreeBSD). Now there is no error, but I still can not use Xfree from other users. I tried using fvwm2 instead of kde and it doesn't work either. Before adding SYSVMG KDEhelp was doing a core dump, but not after adding SYSMSG. Fvwm2 core dumps even after adding SYSVMSG. The only thing I know to have changed was that when I first installed Xfree the rights were not correct and there were a number of things which regular users did not have access to. Found a couple of scripts to recursively chmod to 755. I did this only on the KDE directories and not on Xfree. Other than running X -probeonly anything else that can be done to troubleshoot? How can I check if I correctly added SYSVMSG on the kernel? I also added SYSVSEM in case KDE was looking for that. What I don't understand is if root works why another user doesn't.

Thirdly, the email address I am supposed to respond to doesnt even exist. So, I will be taking my complaints here and expecting results. I'll just copy and paste the last mail I sent that was sent back to me, since no one was at the email address to recieve it. And i'll also be cutting and pasting the spam mail I am recieving once per day. This has to do with the domain drow@drow.net that has somehow gotten on your list. A) I have NEVER given out drow@drow.net as an email address. B) I have never asked for FreeBSD's services either concerning my newly aquired domain. C) If im gonna get spammed once a day, there SHOULD be someone there to answer my questions and stop the spamming. From: "Khardis d'Gorith" To: bounces-approval@FreeBSD.ORG Date sent: Fri, 4 Sep 1998 11:15:18 -0700 Subject: Fet up Send reply to: khardis@drow.net Priority: normal Look, to whoever is running the spam mail that im recieving once a day. Remove me from the list IMMEDIATELY. Perhaps the tone of my voice is harsh, but my questions have been ignored for weeks and I have not recieved ONE response from the many emails I have sent, inquiring to what it is I have to subscribe or unsubscribe to. Because of your lack to help me, I have made up my mind to unsubscribe after waiting through 2 weeks worth of spamming on your end. And now, even after I unsubscribe I am still plagued by your spam mails. I am truly FET UP with this, and wish it to end now. I do not appreciate having my mailbox littered by unwanted mail, and especially do not appreciate this mail appearing for 3 straight weeks, even after I unsubscribed. Now, I dont know why YOU must approve of taking me off your list, when I NEVER gave you permission to add me, so please remove me at once. Good day.

This could be for any of several reasons: You might have asked to subscribe to a "closed" list, where all new additions must be approved by the list owner. You might have asked to subscribe or unsubscribe an address other than the one that appears in the headers of your mail message. When the list owner approves your request, you will be notified. If you have any questions about the policy of the list owner, please contact "bounces-approval@FreeBSD.ORG". Thanks!

This is version 1.94.4 of Majordomo. If you're familiar with mail servers, an advanced user's summary of Majordomo's commands appears at the end of this message. Majordomo is an automated system which allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe to mailing lists, and to retrieve files from list archives. You can interact with the Majordomo software by sending it commands in the body of mail messages addressed to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG". Please do not put your commands on the subject line; Majordomo does not process commands in the subject line. You may put multiple Majordomo commands in the same mail message. Put each command on a line by itself. If you use a "signature block" at the end of your mail, Majordomo may mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will then receive spurious error messages. To keep this from happening, either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature, or put a line with just the word end on it in the same place. This will stop the Majordomo software from processing your signature as bad commands. Here are some of the things you can do using Majordomo: I. FINDING OUT WHICH LISTS ARE ON THIS SYSTEM To get a list of publicly-available mailing lists on this system, put the following line in the body of your mail message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: lists Each line will contain the name of a mailing list and a brief description of the list. To get more information about a particular list, use the "info" command, supplying the name of the list. For example, if the name of the list about which you wish information is "demo-list", you would put the line info demo-list in the body of the mail message. II. SUBSCRIBING TO A LIST Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to have it add you to the list, so you can begin receiving mailings. To receive list mail at the address from which you're sending your mail, simply say "subscribe" followed by the list's name: subscribe demo-list If for some reason you wish to have the mailings go to a different address (a friend's address, a specific other system on which you have an account, or an address which is more correct than the one that automatically appears in the "From:" header on the mail you send), you would add that address to the command. For instance, if you're sending a request from your work account, but wish to receive "demo-list" mail at your personal account (for which we will use "jqpublic@my-isp.com" as an example), you'd put the line subscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com in the mail message body. Based on configuration decisions made by the list owners, you may be added to the mailing list automatically. You may also receive notification that an authorization key is required for subscription. Another message will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not be the same as yours) containing the key, and directing the user to send a command found in that message back to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. (This can be a bit of extra hassle, but it helps keep you from being swamped in extra email by someone who forged requests from your address.) You may also get a message that your subscription is being forwarded to the list owner for approval; some lists have waiting lists, or policies about who may subscribe. If your request is forwarded for approval, the list owner should contact you soon after your request. Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing list policies and features. Save this message for future reference; it will also contain exact directions for unsubscribing. If you lose the intro mail and would like another copy of the policies, send this message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: intro demo-list (substituting, of course, the real name of your list for "demo-list"). III. UNSUBSCRIBING FROM MAILING LISTS Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be used to remove your address from the list. However, in most cases, you may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name: unsubscribe demo-list (This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your address is shown in your mail.) To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending the request, give that address in the command: unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG to remove the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*" in place of the list name: unsubscribe * unsubscribe * jqpublic@my-isp.com IV. FINDING THE LISTS TO WHICH AN ADDRESS IS SUBSCRIBED To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: which You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying the text for which Majordomo should search. For instance, to find which users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the command which my-isp.com Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which" command, considering it a privacy violation. V. FINDING OUT WHO'S SUBSCRIBED TO A LIST To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the "who" command, followed by the name of the list: who demo-list Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the "who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy violation. VI. RETRIEVING FILES FROM A LIST'S ARCHIVES Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list. These may include: - back issues of the list - help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list - daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index" command: index demo-list If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename. For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.9611" (presumably the messages posted to the list in November 1996), you would put the lines get demo-list profile.form get demo-list demo-list.9611 in your mail to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. VII. GETTING MORE HELP To contact a human site manager, send mail to postmaster@FreeBSD.ORG. To get another copy of this help message, send mail to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG with a line saying help in the message body. VIII. COMMAND SUMMARY FOR ADVANCED USERS In the description below items contained in []'s are optional. When providing the item, do not include the []'s around it. Items in angle brackets, such as

You'll need to access the mailing list archives if you want to catch up on whatever you missed while you were off the main list. If you don't want to keep getting these reminders every day, but don't want to resubscribe to the list, send just the "unsubscribe" command shown above. If you need to contact a human being regarding this, send a message to Majordomo-Owner@FreeBSD.ORG. Now, I know I am sounding like a jerk, but im passed fet up. I never asked to be on this list, and then when I asked for a response THREE times I was ignored, and when I decided just to unsubscribe I was told I needed permission. I do NOT need permission to remove my name from a spamming list ESPECIALLY when I didnt ask to be on it in the first place. Then, I send my complaint to the new email address it lists, only to have it sent back because it doesnt even exist. I don't want to email about this again. 3 weeks worth of spam is quite enough, and now I am expecting definate results.

I've been combing through the mailing lists and have found related material, but I'm not sure if what I am finding is correct. I found a patch called 'DIFF.LEASE', are these the LEASE patches you refer to? And if they are, I did not notice any version information, Can I apply these to a 2.2.6 system? or should I upgrade the system to 2.2.7 first? Also, I can't find the vnode locking patches at all, save a reference to something done in '95. Are these problems fixed in the 3.0 branch?

I can't see configuration file ( e.g. lilo.conf ), or boot writer ( e.g. lilo ) 2) In setup there is three option : MBR, Standard, and none.. what's the differences between the first and the second ? 3) I have 1 FAT32, 1 Fat16, 1 FreeBSD partition, when i choose MBR or Standart the setup gives me warning : ' only one child fat max allowed ' what does it meant ? 4) after 3) I can't boot to my windows / fat, always to freebsd. how to fix this ?

I have read the available Documents and pratice almost 10 hours by compiling over and over again. I hope you would spare a few minutes to answer my questions. 1) Is order in Kernel Configuration Important ? Say I can't put this line before that line ? I tried the Generic, and it compile sucessfully. If i add several line for SB16 in the middle it would hang (see indication #1), but if i put it in the most bottom part, then it's okay 2) Why is LINT not suitable for kernel configuration ? i know it is too complete, but I tried to commeted out all uneeded parts, In order to preserve the right order, it also yield indication #1 3) how to figure out the right order ? Indication 1 : After boot : it should be displayed this way : Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc. Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California. All rights reserved. but it displayed nothing but Data Address, Code Address the first 2 lines you see after boot: and hangs 4) is there a way to find out what's wrong with the kernel ? It would help if i know where it hangs. 5) Would it be faster if I change default : controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr using 32 bit probe ? the one in LINT ?

I know that - I'm just going on a vacation, and the only means I'll have to possibly use this computer (and fix up things) is using telnet from a (yuck!!!) windoze 95 machine in a shop or something. > Please consider using SSH which can be found at > ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/security/login/ssh/ instead of telnet. Usually doing so - but on windoze? Without the possibility to install something of my own? (Just a temporary thing...) Besides, ssh will use a ttyp?, as well - so I'd need to make the same change.

Sure there is, but you shouldn't do it. Log in as a normal user and use su. Not to mention that doing anything as root over telnet is a security risk. Use ssh instead. It's in the ports collection.

I'm told the modems are rebadged 3Com Impact 2 modems and that they just take AT commands like a normal modem. This being the case I would imagine that you would just set up the dialup as for any other modem. Since the people I have to set this up for want to know if it will work before they order the service, I thought I would try to confirm it was OK first. This will be running on FreeBSD-2.2.6 with a later version of PPP installed.

You can read the bash man page, which I believe tells you how to remap the keys. But I wouldn't recommend hanging on to remnants of a different system. By default, bash uses the Emacs bindings which are also used on a number of other programs, such as Netscape. To delete the following character, use ^D (that's control-D). Read the man page or "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm) (page 148) for a more complete list. > One more, I use VIM lots in linux, but why VIM in FreeBSD felt different, > for example if i press delete key, it won't delete instead it put ^? in the > cursor. Is there a logical explaination of this ? I don't know VIM. Do you mean the editor vim? I don't know it, but it's conceivable that it's like vi. I don't know what DEL (^?) is supposed to do, but obviously vim doesn't understand it. You can read the manual or change your editor.

I think I understand now. You have compiled and built a kernel, but it never gets beyond the Boot: prompt. Correct? I think the answer is "something is wrong".

Try running tcpdump on your network link during the ntpdate. See if you get any response from the server. Also, check to see if your ISP provides NTP services for its clients. PSInet, for example, does.

I am currently running FreeBSD-2.2.6 and love it but would like to try the SMP kernel as the performance gains listed on the support page were fairly impressive. How can I obtain this on CD-ROM? I have the 4 disc set from cdrom.com of 2.2.6 and 2.2.5 (stable), however I am still confused as to where I might find it. Would I have to order the "3.0-SNAP" cd-rom distribution? (Please, no jokes, I have been messing around with this for about a year now and still feel I have barely scratched the surface) Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

I followed the steps outlined in the book: 1. mount the cdrom... 2. cd /cdrom/ports/distfiles 3. mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles 4. for i in *; do [enter] In responce I get the messages: for: Command not found do: Command not found Where can I find and install these commands on my system?

I don't understand how that could happen. Theoretically, you could change the size of the extended partition, and that *might* not destroy your D: drive. On the other hand, it might destroy it.

No. They *should* exist as a means of keeping state. Basically, if you delete something that is in use by you ("you" being an NFS client (you rename it instead of deleting it. This allows you to continue to access the object. It helps here to know what an "open file" is. On a local FS, an open file is an entry in a per process open file table that points to a vnode in a local FS. On a remote FS, an open file is an entry in a per process open file table that points to an nfsnode that proxies a vnode from a remote FS. Consider the case where you open, then unlink a file. On a local FS, the vnode reference count is the count of directory references plus the count of open file references. On a remote FS, the count is *only* the number of directory references. Now say I open a file on an NFS server. The open references are not incremented (that would be state). Each time I access the file, I pass in the NFS "cookie" that tells me the device and the inode on the device to get a vnode, and thereby access the file. Now say I delete the file on the client. If I really deleted it on the server while it was open, I would no longer be able to access the file contents. This is because, when the reference count goes to zero, the vnode is freed. So as a client with a file open, instead of really deleting it, I mark it for deferred delete, and then rename it, such that someone else is unlikely to open it, and thus hols a local reference which doesn't result in a remote reference really being there (being as it's stateless). So I trade an in-core vnode refernce for a rename + an nfsnode reference with a deferred delete. Now say the client dies, and the deferred delete state, which existed as a flag on the NFSnode, was lost. The .nfs file is now there with no deferred delete referring to it. As a result, it is left hanging around. There are other (obvious) circumstances under which it can be left hanging around, as well. In any case, someone needs to clean up after the lost implied state. This is generally a cron job that remove .nfs files after they are "too old". The definition of "too old" is site dependent, and based on may expected usage of deleted-but-open files, generally multiplied by 2.

These are expected to be applied to a 3.0 system prior to February of 1998. After that, the patch for the execution class loader is no longer applicable, Basically, the LEASE code is "opportunity locking". For this to work, it has to be obeyed on every read or write. In the -current (and the 2.2.x code), it's not obeyed. This means that there may be stale VM objects. The idea is that you must obtain a read lease for every read and a write lease for every write. If you don't do this, NFSv3, which depends on lease notifications, will be flakey, and you sould use NFSv2 instead. > Also, I can't find the vnode locking patches at all, save a reference to > something done in '95. See David Greenman's patches for mmap'ed NFS files. This *is* in the -hackers archive for 2.2.6. Basically, the vnode is not locked before areference that requires locking to be reliable. > Are these problems fixed in the 3.0 branch? I don't know. You will have to ask David Greenman. I'm pretty sure my LEASE patches were considered low priority in light of other more serious problems in the code. > Thanks for your assistance so far, and for any additional help you can > give. No problem... I'd like to see FreeBSD be as reliable as possible. It doesn't suit my purpose for participation, otherwise.
