I remember doing that exact same stuff just a few months ago. I feel I should point out that the Apache13+PHP3 port gives you the option of installing mod_ssl/OpenSSL support, as well as MySQL support (used for IMP address book and preferences. more on this later). Let me tell you the story of the long, difficult way: I downloaded the source distributions for Apache, PHP, MySQL, UW-IMAP, mod_ssl, and OpenSSL. I first installed the UW-IMAP server and MySQL by themselves, since building PHP later depends on them being already installed. I then got Apache working by itself (using the APACI method). I did 'make install' using the base apache configuration. Then I compiled in PHP support (Apache keeps a copy of the last-used ./configure line in config.status, so adding PHP while keeping everything else the same was as simple as "./config.status --activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a"). I just copied the new httpd binary in the apache/src directory over the old one in /usr/local/apache/bin. I also copied the php3.ini file to /usr/local/lib. Then I attempted to add mod_ssl support, according to their documentation. I tried to install OpenSSL by hand. I got hung up because the "make test" or something like that would fail. I later found out that was because the RSAREF library was missing something. There's now a patch for that, and it's installed by the port for you! So I installed OpenSSL via the port and then installed mod_ssl according to the mod_ssl documentation (and used config.status to keep the PHP module that I had previously added). Mod_ssl makes some big changes to Apache's makefile, for building the certificates and such. After mod_ssl was built in and compiled, I did 'make certificate TYPE=test'. I did another 'make install'. I ended up with duplicate configuration files (one set of configs before mod_ssl and one after mod_ssl) which I had to then merge by hand. But I ended up with a working Apache + PHP3 + IMAP + mod_ssl/OpenSSL + MySQL binary which I could then use to run IMP. When I tried to go to https://myserver, the web browser complained that the certificate wasn't signed by a valid CA, but I was able to tell the web browsers to accept the certificate anyway, and so I got a secure connection without paying a CA (note that earlier web browsers may not let you accept a certificate with an invalid CA. I've found that I need at least a version 4.x browser) That said, let me also say that I have never gotten IMP to work properly with MySQL, using a MySQL database for preferences and such. I also haven't been tracking IMP (just to be fair, in case that's been fixed by now). I found that IMP had too many quirks for my taste and went to TWIG (http://twig.screwdriver.net/) instead. It doesn't look as flashy, but it's a lot smaller and cleaner and doesn't require as much time to set up. I disabled the MySQL support in TWIG because I didn't want to set up another table and permissions (not after trying and failing with IMP). So... I suggest suggest you try the Apache+PHP port first, as it must be less painful than what I did. --Ludwig Pummer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 15 1:57:35 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ddsecurity.com.br (vitoria.ddsecurity.com.br [200.18.130.93]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8C23314CF0 for ; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 01:57:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grios@ddsecurity.com.br) Received: (qmail 25049 invoked from network); 15 Aug 1999 08:57:06 -0000 Received: from remoteip160.buynet.com.br (HELO ddsecurity.com.br) (200.238.234.160) by vitoria.ddsecurity.com.br with SMTP; 15 Aug 1999 08:57:06 -0000 Message-ID: <37B6563E.93104C44@ddsecurity.com.br> Date: Sun, 15 Aug 1999 05:55:10 +0000 From: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: slices Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there any tutorial about working with slices ?

The more I think of it, the less I'm comfortable with the 'user' option too. I can just see some anon. ftper ejecting the CD-ROM! By the way, does the BSD implementation of mount even allow the 'user' option? Anyway, something like 'su -c "$mountcmd $device $mountpt"' in the previous script would make a lot more sense to me. But I see the BSD implementation of 'su' has a '-c' switch that doesn't mean the same as the SysV '-c'. How could you do 'su -c "$mountcmd $device $mountpt"' in a script in BSD? Something like 'su -c root "$mountcmd $device $mountpt"' ? I didn't see an example in the manpage. TIA! -- David S.

It's more similar to the SysV way than I thought: su root -c "$mountcmd $device $mountpt" So, this should work: ===SNIP=== #! /bin/sh device="/dev/wcd0c" mountpt="/cdrom" ftpmountpt="/home/ftp/pub/cdrom" mntcmd="mount -t cd9660" case $1 in -f) su root -c "$mntcmd $device $ftpmountpt" ;; -l) mount ;; -u) check=$(mount | grep /cdrom) check1=$(mount | grep /home/ftp/pub/cdrom) check2=$(mount | grep /dev/wcd0c) if [ -n "$check" ]; then echo "unmounting $check" su root -c "umount $device" elif [ -n "$check1" ]; then echo "unmounting $check1" su root -c "umount $device" elif [ -n "$check2" ]; then echo "unmounting $check2" su root -c "umount $device" else echo "$device is not mounted" fi ;; -m) su root -c "$mntcmd $device $mountpt" ;; *) echo -e "usage: cdm -f (for ftp users: requires root access) \n or -l (to show mounted directories) \n or -u (to umount /dev/wcd0c: requires root access) \n or * (to show this help resource) \n or -m (to mount to normal mount position: /cdrom -- Requires root access)" esac ===SNIP=== Let me know what you think! :-) -- David S.

Look in your /etc/rc.conf file I bet there is a line for starting up sendmail with something like "sendmail -bq30", remove the "q30" bit, as it tells it to do something every 30 minutes.

The boot command tells it to load the kernel in memory and by adding "-s" it just passes it. These notes of course apply if you are using 3.2 Also remember than the countdown uses [enter] to stop the wait and load. So you need to press something else like Space Bar.

This is done for security purposes. ( man xauth or xhost command for more information). That's about it. If your local system is windows, then help files are included with the above mentioned programs. original article:http://www.egroups.com/group/freebsd-questions/?start= 168072 > > How difficult is xwindows server setup for remote login viva telnet ? > Where might I find faq on this subject ? thanks in advance... > JT > > > --/The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- > the rest is overhead for the operating system.\-- > --/System Administrator support@techpower.net\-- > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 15 9:59:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mobil.surnet.ru (mobil.surnet.ru [195.54.2.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DDB0C15236 for ; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 09:59:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ilia@cgilh.chel.su) Received: (from uucgilh@localhost) by mobil.surnet.ru (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with UUCP id WAA10752 for questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 22:55:18 +0600 (UDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by cgilh.chel.su (8.8.7/8.8.7) with UUCP id WAA03779 for questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 22:45:36 +0600 Received: from localhost (ilia@localhost) by localhost.cgu.chel.su (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id WAA00455 for ; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 22:44:55 +0600 (ESS) (envelope-from ilia@cgilh.chel.su) X-Authentication-Warning: localhost.cgu.chel.su: ilia owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 15 Aug 1999 22:44:55 +0600 (ESS) From: Ilia Chipitsine X-Sender: ilia@localhost.cgu.chel.su To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: how much do I depend on PROCFS ? can I just throw it away ?!

Currently it allows you mount on demand nfs partitions. It mounts directories which are mount points for nfs'ed shares after _anybody_ cd'ed to them ! Actually you can have nfs-shares on 'localhost', but it now won't mount floppy & cdrom for you :-( 'amd' could be better than 'sudo' and 'user'. > > > -- > David S.

By default (i.e., the GENERIC kernel), UDMA mode is not enabled, but you can enable it by rebuilding the kernel and adding "flags 0xa0ffa0ff" to the IDE controller definition in your kernel configuration file, e.g.: controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff vector wdintr See the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html) for info on building your own kernel. As far as your video card is concerned, FreeBSD will work, since it runs video in text-mode. If you think you'd like to run X-Windows (which you probably will), check out http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.4/ati3.html#3 , as well as other parts of the XFree86-project's FAQ. Basically, XFree86 supports 256 colors on most ATI cards, and 32K, 64K and 16M color modes on the 264xT and 3D Rage cards (athough acceleration is not yet supported). Apparently, the newer Rage 128 chips are not yet supported.

The LINT configuration contains many, many more options than necessary for a running system, and this will be very confusing for someone who isn't *really* familiar with the meaning of all these options. I'd recommend starting with the GENERIC configuration. I always do the following for each item: (1) If I don't know what this option or driver/device does, I leave it in place or I look it up in LINT and continue with step (2). (2) If I am not really sure if I need it, I leave it in place. (3) If I know it and I know I will never need it, I delete it from my configuration. (4) If I know that I don't need it, but may need it some time, I comment it out. (5) If I know that I need it, I leave it in place. If I then can't find the option or driver I need, I look into LINT to locate it and copy the entry. When building the first custom kernel, the GENERIC configuration has the prime advantage that it is guaranteed to work -- after all, this is the kernel you booted the currently running system from. (If you by chanced booted any other kernel, use that configuration to start with.) If you are not sure you fully understood the process of configuring and building a kernel, you can for a start copy the GENERIC configuration, change only the "ident" directive to the name your configuration should have, and configure, build, install, and boot this kernel as described. If the name you chose shows up on boot (and with ``uname -v''), you are on the right track so far. > /* Edit this file to suit your needs */ > config MY_KERNEL_NAME > cd ../../compile/MY_KERNEL_NAME > make depend && make && make install & reboot ^ This should, of course, be a double ampersand as well. -- Juergen Nickelsen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 15 23: 2:45 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from www.inx.de (www.inx.de [195.21.255.251]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0FE921536B for ; Sun, 15 Aug 1999 23:02:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jnickelsen@acm.org) Received: from n31-100.berlin.snafu.de ([195.21.31.100] helo=goting.jn.berlin.snafu.de) by www.inx.de with esmtp (Exim 3.02 #1) id 11GFrM-0007NQ-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 08:03:04 +0200 Received: by goting.jn.berlin.snafu.de (Postfix, from userid 100) id C5634195; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 01:28:12 +0200 (CEST) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14263.19723.737691.715817@goting.jn.berlin.snafu.de> Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 01:28:11 +0200 (CEST) To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: mount_cd9660: invalid argument -- why? From: Juergen Nickelsen Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG For some time now I seem to be unable to mount a CD. I have FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE running (last update August 9) on more or less standard hardware. The CD-ROM drive is a little older, but I can probe it... # camcontrol devlist at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (pass0,da0) at scbus0 target 4 lun 0 (pass1,cd0) ...and read it. # dd if=/dev/cd0a of=/dev/null count=1000 1000+0 records in 1000+0 records out 512000 bytes transferred in 3.461937 secs (147894 bytes/sec) I just can't mount it: # mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom mount_cd9660: Invalid argument When I debug mount_cd9660, I see that, as expected with this error message, mount(2) returns -1 with EINVAL. This seems to be independent of my custom kernel, because it also happens with the GENERIC kernel of 3.2-RELEASE. (And yes, I *have* ``options "CD9660"'' in my kernel.) Unfortunately I don't know when this problem occured the first time. With this pretty standard hardware (motherboard Tyan Tomcat IV single, Intel Pentium 200, CD-ROM as seen above, Adaptec 2940-UW), mount_cd9660 *has* already worked some time in the past. It does also not work with the mount_cd9660 from the 3.1 CD (I don't have the 3.2 CDs at hand at the moment), so I should assume that this is a problem of the kernel -- on the other hand it does not work with the GENERIC kernel of 3.2-RELEASE, and I am pretty sure that is has already worked with this kernel some time. I don't understand that. Is this a known problem? Have I missed something? What can I try? What more information should I give? I'd appreciate all help, since this probem gets on my nerves.

I've learned that there is a FreeBSD, a NetBSD and an OpenBSD (hoping that I have not forgotten a member of the *BSD group :). From a developer's point of view, the following questions are quite interesting: - What are the differences of these three versions/ releases/distributions? - What are the differences in the system APIs? - Provided that I find the time to do so, is it possible to develop device drivers for all three ebvironments based on one source? Or are the interfaces required to build/install the driver too different to make this approach possible? - If the differences are of practically no relevance (only minor stuff), are there plans to unite the three *BSDs or to (at least) build some uniform device driver interfaces so that a driver can be used without modifications? If these questions have previously been discussed somewhere and/or were written down into a FAQ, I apologize (in advance) and will continue to look for these comments in the newsgroups, mailing-lists and FAQs...

With the installation of 3.2 disklabel didn't seem to report that the partitions were 4.2BSD fstype - maybe the ccd code had changed wrt that. Anyway, I disklabed -e 'd and filled in the appropriate FS type in each disk and could usr the ccdconfig -C command to get back the old configuration.

What do you mean by corresponding X server? Do I have to install a special X server for Voodoo support? I'm using a Matrox G200 AGP has my "normal" graphics board and want to use my PCI Voodoo 2 board once in a while. I looked at the new features of 3.3.4, there Voodoo 3 and Banshee support is mentioned, so I think Voodoo 2 must have been supported already in an earlier version of XFree86. Has anyone managed to use a Voodoo 2 board with FreeBSD? I'm interested in using Glide and/or MesaGL with it... Ciao, Thomas.

As far as I know: The goal of the NetBSD project is to make the OS available on all hardware platforms capable of running a virtual memory system. The FreeBSD project concentrates on the i386 and the alpha platforms and is interested to achieve best perfomance. The OpenBSD project doesn't support as many platforms as NetBSD, but more than FreeBSD. The OpenBSD project wants to make its OS the most secure open source OS. Historically, the NetBSD was the very first one, and the FreeBSD project started a little bit later. Both use a more hierarchical development model with a fixed core team, registered system developers etc. OpenBSD spinned off from NetBSD later, and its model is more liberal and a bit like the Linux model. >=20 > - What are the differences in the system APIs? > =20 Since all three systems are based on 4.4BSD-Lite2, the last version of Berkeley UNIX, the differences shouldn't be very serious. > - Provided that I find the time to do so, is it > possible to develop device drivers for all three > ebvironments based on one source?

The one that comes with linux-glide 2.4 is for a plain old VooDoo I think. Once I downloaded and installed the the glide library for the voodoo II on my computer, my voodoo 2's work fine.

Are you sure the jumpers on each drive are set properly for master and slave? You might also try removing the CDROM and sticking the 850MB drive on the other IDE controller to see if it works there (make sure the jumpers are correct for a single drive). In the old days (when Conner was still around), there were some drives that just didn't get along well if you mixed manufacturers on the same bus. If it works alone on the other controller, it's one of those "unfriendly" drive situations. If it doesn't work, then there's something else amiss, and hopefully, someone else out there has a better idea.

I have no problems using either ssh nor ppp separately. One side is set to openmode active (the caller). It sends several LCP config requests but does not seem to get any responses. Then it quits due to "Exception detected on descriptor 2". The other side is set to openmode passive (the callee). It seems to be receiving and sending LCP config requests. My setup is FreeBSD 2.2.8 on one box FreeBSD 3.1 on the other box SSH 1.2.27 (not from Ports) on both Link is an Ethernet LAN I am getting a bit desparate at this stage. Any suggestions welcome.

I partitioned my HD into two partitions: 8gb for Win and the remaining for Unix. When I boot the Kernel, and it probes for my devices. It does not find WD0 - my Hard Drive. At the end of the probe, is lists the error something like this "isa_probe_'something'" and does not allow me to proceed through the installation any furthere. It says that it could not locate my Hard Drive. I think it has to be some sort of conflict. I also have a DVD-ROM drive and a CD-RW drive. I hope this is enough detail for you.

So, I have two 3com NICs in the same computer. They are same
model (3c509) and so on. I have compiled a support for them
to the kernel and in visual kernel config (*start computer*
-> *hit space* -> boot -c -> visual) they both seem to work
OK (ep0 and ep1). But when I check that same stuff in
CLI - mode it says that both cards aren't enabled? WTF?
And when I go to visual mode it looks like that they are
enabled? What's the problem?

OK, I booted the computer (both NICs enabled (at least the
visual kernel configuration says so)) and when it's that
magical time to say "Hey hey, I here" - to ifconfig (in
the bootup) ep0 seems to work fine but then ifconfig
doesn't "find" ep1. Strange? or?

Oh, and I also tried to work it out with sysinstall, but
it doesn't probe ep1.

And I am sure as sugar that when I check those cards in
the boot's configuration in visual mode. It says that
both cards are enabled.

Help me out guys (and gals),

I don't actually want to use both cards, just the GX, and the VT that is on-board can not be disabled via hardware or bios. For some reason, I can run XF86Setup just fine, but when I attempt to run X using the Mach 64 server, it simply stops and does nothing. There are no error messages, no signs of anything happening other than the initial messages of the xserver starting. The monitor and video card are properly set up in the x config file as far as I know. X works ok when I pull the GX out of the system and reconfigure the video server. Help! Thank-you!

It seems that a kernel option "CONFIG_SBPRO" is needed. I added the following line in my kernel config file: options CONFIG_SBPRO "config" denied the option, but it worked - at least it fixed the starange "NOTE! blah blah..." message in `dmesg` and lacking mixer in `cat /dev/sndstat`. However, the "... IRQ/DRQ config error?" keeps coming out when I execute mpg123. I traced back the source location of the message, and it was "/sys/i386/isa/sound/dmabuf.c" as exerpted below. ....skip.... 501 /* XXX note -- nobody seems to set the mode to WK_TIMEOUT - lr */ 502 if ((in_sleep_flag[dev].mode & WK_TIMEOUT)) { 503 /* XXX hey, we are in splhigh here ? lr 970705 */ 504 printf("Sound: DMA (input) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? \n"); 505 err = EIO; ....skip.... According to the comments, something is going on here. By comparing the sources with those of R2.2.7, it seems that a significant overhaul was carried out and left some bugs.

I have already searched the sendmail site, but I couldnt find anything usefull, if someone can help me, I will appreciate this very much.

My read on the relevant stuff from XFree and moused was that it's not possible given the current state of things. The only thing moused does for you is give you the option of cut and paste in a cons25 terminal window, so if you're using X anyway it's not necessary. If you sometimes need to use the terminal window then switch to X you can always turn moused on, then turn it off again when you have to start up X. It would be nice to have moused support wheels on PS/2 mice, but if you're only using X you're not missing anything anyway.

I added a user to our system for an FTP account, but when I tried to change permissions on his account I got an illegal group name. And when I tried to restart one of our apache servers, I got a bad group name also. So I went into /etc/groups and took 2 people out of that particular group and everything was working again with no problems. Obviously there is a limit to how many people can be in one group. What's the limit? Is there anyway around the group limit, without redoing the whole system? On this particular system we're running 2.2.5 Release.

Space used by files that are opened by one program and then deleted by another program is not freed up until that second program closes the file. So you may have to kill some daemons. Try to do a 'du -x /' just to make sure that you don't have much stuff on your / partition. You should move /tmp over to /usr/tmp and symlink it back. --Ludwig Pummer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 16 14:50:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pebkac.owp.csus.edu (pebkac.owp.csus.edu [130.86.232.245]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1C16114C46 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 14:50:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu) Received: from owp.csus.edu (mothra.ecs.csus.edu [130.86.76.220]) by pebkac.owp.csus.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id NAA24857; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 13:37:11 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <37B87690.2F9470BB@owp.csus.edu> Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 13:37:36 -0700 From: Joseph Scott X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Chris Dorr Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: /etc/groups References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Chris Dorr wrote: > > So I went into /etc/groups and took 2 people out of that particular group > and everything was working again with no problems. > > Obviously there is a limit to how many people can be in one group.

In older implementations, a group cannot have more than 200 members. The maximum line length of /etc/group is 1024 characters. Longer lines will be skipped. This limitation disappeared in FreeBSD 3.0. Older binaries that are statically linked, depend on old shared libraries, or non-FreeB- SD binaries in compatibility mode may still have this limits. So the answer looks like yes, there are two limitations on 2.2.5R, a group can not have more than 200 members, and any one line can not be greater than 1024 characters. I guess my question would be now, what are the limits for FreeBSD > 3.0 ? -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu CSU Sacramento - Office Of Water Programs To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 16 14:59: 5 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from uclink4.berkeley.edu (uclink4.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.25.39]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 11E4414C46 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 14:59:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from omsscf@uclink4.berkeley.edu) Received: from dwin-127-8 (dwin-127-8.Media.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.79.150]) by uclink4.berkeley.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA27184 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 14:59:09 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <4.1.19990816142259.00c7fae0@uclink4.berkeley.edu> X-Sender: omsscf@uclink4.berkeley.edu X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 14:59:01 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Sergio Feria Subject: Help: Network conn shuts down...

Routed is turned off and I tried specifying these routes as static routes but one of our routers sends redirects when there is a WAN hiccup and internal traffic gets routed out to the internet (default for the router). The static routes also get over ridden by the redirects. The redirect would be fine except that when the WAN is back up the freebsd machine never changes back. The Corp WAN guy has turned RIP off for the entire WAN so I think my only option is to get the Freebsd machine to ignore the redirects. I noticed that even without routed my route table contains "learned" routes and keeps growing. Is it possible to turn this behavior off (would probably solve my redirect problem). We have Sun Solaris machines that without routed contain only a couple routes in their route table and it never changes. I would prefer this behavior. Thanks for any help you can give...

He confirmed my guess about wanting it to prevent servers. Really all it does to people who want to run a server is annoy them. Meanwhile it annoys your friendly non-abusing users as well. Not what I would consider a good idea. Not long ago I met a guy who was running a web server on a machine using dhcp. He had a friend running his DNS service and every time his IP address changed he just sent the new address to his friend who updated his DNS and he was back in business. Of course this works best if both you and your friend spend all your time on the net... >but also, it is a good tool for keeping people >from trying to keep 24/7 connections open; the behaviour you list as >something that should make that comletely useless is, in fact, the >behaviour looked for. On a hardwired non-dialin network, why would you care about 24/7 connections? For a network the scarce resource is bandwidth, not how long the connection stays open. In the modem world the scarce resource is phone lines, so modem camping is discouraged, but not with dhcp. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 16 16:17:20 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailout1.nyroc.rr.com (mailout1-1.nyroc.rr.com [24.92.226.146]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DD84C15975 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 16:17:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from reichman@twcny.rr.com) Received: from mail1.twcny.rr.com ([24.92.226.74]) by mailout1.nyroc.rr.com (Post.Office MTA v3.5.3 release 223 ID# 0-59787U250000L250000S0V35) with ESMTP id com; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 19:16:25 -0400 Received: from twcny.rr.com ([24.95.188.113]) by mail1.twcny.rr.com (Post.Office MTA v3.5.2 release 221 ID# 0-53939U80000L80000S0V35) with ESMTP id com; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 19:16:23 -0400 Message-ID: <37B89DFA.4176AF81@twcny.rr.com> Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 19:25:46 -0400 From: "Mark S.

I think you are likely right about servers, but also, it is a good tool for keeping people from trying to keep 24/7 connections open; the behaviour you list as something that should make that comletely useless is, in fact, the behaviour looked for.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings, I am delving into FreeBSD on a laptop for the first time and I am having trouble with network connectivity. I finally got my hands on a PCMCIA NIC that freebsd will recognize (3Com 3C589), and it does find it just fine, but I can't get any packets out. Here is part of an ifconfig -a zp0: flags=1843 mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.35 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:a0:24:a8:18:87 I have never seen the LINK0 before. On my other FreeBSD boxes the LINK0 is MULTICAST. I can't find much info on PCMCIA NICs anywhere. A ping to my server give me this: # ping 10.0.0.1 PING 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down I have green lights on both the NIC and my hub and the cable is known good. The NIC works under Windoz too. Any insight as to what is going on would be greatly appreciated. Oh, FreeBSD-3.2-RELEASE installed off WC-CDROM.

Jackson wrote, > What's the difference between a subnet and a network segment? A 'segment' almost always refers to a physical partitioning of a network. Typically, on an Ethernet network, a segment is any portion separated from another by a brigde, router, hub, switch, etc. The term 'subnet' is a bit more nebulous. Someone may refer to a physical segment as a subnet, but I would say it is more proper to speak of subnets only when you are discussing routing. That is, whereas several segments of an Ethernet might be connected in a switch, they must be one subnet since there is no routing. Or in other words, segments are how you breakup an Ethernet, subnets are how you breakup an IP network. My $0.02 -- Crist J.

If memory serves me right, this happened to quite a few people after they upgraded their FreeBSD but didn't update their /etc properly, or just copied /etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf. /etc/rc.conf would keep calling itself over and over again.

A subnet is a higher level concept than a segment. A subnet is implemented by partitioning the 32 bit IP address space in such a way as to isolate IP brodcast areas. All hosts with the same net ID (marked by the bit postions in the subnet mask containing a "1") are part of the same subnet - each host must have a unique host ID (marked by the bit positions in the subnet mask containing a "0"). A single host ID is set aside as a broadcast address...usually the host ID that is all '1's. A segment is a lower level concept - down at the physical level. A segment describes a common physical communication channel. With ethernet, a segment is understood as a common collision area...in other words, if a frame from one interface can collide with a frame from another interface, those two interfaces share the same segment. On a vanilla 10Base2 (thin net) setup, the cable is understood as the "segment". With 10BaseT (twisted pair) with a "repeating" hub, each wire attached to the hub combine to form a single segment. On a intelligent/switched hub, you may have the option of isolating ports into separate segments to minimize collisions. Bridges are devices which translate signals from one physical signalling system to another and typically divide the differing physical topologies into segments. You may have multiple segments under one subnet....this is often avoided though You may have multiple subnets on a given segment....this is not typical either.

I've never seen, even m$ boxes included, die from having their ip address changed with or without dhcp. You must mean something else, right? And as I mentioned earlier, from the clients point of view it's much easier just to apply for a static address. The other solution would be to deny access to all and punch holes in the fw for every client allowed. This works. I know. But the rules table for the firewall grows to monolithic proportions, understandably due to the myriad of available software applications. A second alternative which is similar to the above. And it's setting bandwidth rules for every ip in the scope. Which also works, but sets the problem out of focus. The most desireable solution from my point of view would be to deny regular ip datatypes (http-data etc) from the internet to the clients. e.g. to deny a request from the internet to access any ip resource on the client side. And from there punch holes to allow access to certain ips to be accessed from the internet. This I do not know how to do. If someone does please let me know. /D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 17 3: 5:37 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from Bespin.worldnet.net (bespin.worldnet.net [195.3.3.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B631B15753 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 03:05:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pcasidy@worldnet.fr) Received: from greatoak.home (p14-037.province.worldnet.fr [195.3.14.37]) by Bespin.worldnet.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA01179; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 12:01:38 +0200 (CEST) Received: (from pcasidy@localhost) by greatoak.home (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA01911; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 11:42:46 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from pcasidy) Message-Id: <199908170942.LAA01911@greatoak.home> Date: Tue, 17 Aug 1999 11:42:46 +0200 (CEST) From: Philippe CASIDY Subject: Re: [HELP] Unrecognize IDE hard disk To: dan@jgl.reno.nv.us Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <050801bee7ee$dee16a20$0200000a@home> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 16 Aug, Dan O'Connor wrote: > Hmmm...That's a strange one. > > Are you sure the jumpers on each drive are set properly for master and > slave?

I'm using version 3.2. I have ran across the following drives and I would like to find out if anyone has or is currently using them successfully: 1. Onstream 30 gig Parallel Port device (also available in IDE, and SCSI) Non-traditional tape drive, files can be executed from the device could possibly only be used with windows software, but I'm not sure. 2. Sony SuperStation 6.6/10 gig Parallel port (also available in IDE) As far as I can tell this is a normal tape drive 3. There are also Colorado tape drives available in my town, but I was told they are not supported. If anyone could suggest what types of drives are supported, or have a reference to how to setup and run these devices, I would greatly appreciate it... Thanks guys...

Perhaps some of you may remember to me. I'm running a newly-installed FreeBSD system on Pentium-MMX. Several weeks ago I had difficulties with setting up the X11-server. This difficulty, due to your kind help, is no longer a problem, the X11 works almost perfectly. Unfortunately almost, because a new promlem have been encountered: the netscape. The netscape application does not work properly. After successful installations higher versions stop requiring some library-functions. The netscape 3.4 and 3.4 gold work, but in some cases they stop catching singal 11 and the xdm starts-up again giving the login-password screen. I tried to use the netscape of other machines diverting the DISPLAY variable and running the netscape from another macihne but the result was the same. Can you give me some issues to fix the problem?

I'm using an HP SureStore T4 (Travan) SCSI and it works very well. I'm also using three HP DATs SCSI (DDS-1 and DDS-3 tapes) without problems. As for setup, if it's SCSI just connect the drive and boot FreeBSD... You should see the drive and the device (check with dmesg(8) or look in /var/log/messages if you miss it). You don't need any configuration. Plug and play... :-) As for running, I'm using tar(1) and dump(8)/restore(8). I'd like to try Amanda from the ports, but I never find the time.

That's possible, Though I can't say for 100% certain that the quota.user data did not get corrupted, I find it odd that it would corrupt 100% of the time on only one machine. Also, if this were a problem with -stable, it would be well over a month old, which is when I first encountered it, the only thing holding back a post, was my lack of willingness to jump the gun saying it's a software problem when I do not believe it is, as I have another machine of the same configuration and date of release that quota works fine on.

I can see it now, I'm downloading the new service pack to my crappy WordPerfect 9, it gets through 20MB of the 36MB patch, and *BOOM*, IP address changes and the connection drops, forcing me back to square 1. That's an extreem example, what if someone's on ICQ, or playing an online game, etc, etc.. This would end up alienating your 'good' customers more than it would the 'bad' ones. I know I would switch isp's in a heartbeat (if this is an isp we're dealing with), unreliable service is unacceptable when that service is being paid for, and from a customer's point of view, this would be un-reliable service. On the same tolken, what kind of a lease time are we talking about? 2hrs, 12hrs, 24hrs? > And as I mentioned earlier, from the clients point of view it's much > easier just to > apply for a static address. > The other solution would be to deny access to all and punch holes in the > fw for > every client allowed.

You'd have to put SO many holes in this firewall it'd be crazy. My current internet connection is through a local university, and they block ALL incomming connections except on port 113 (ident). I can't tell you how much trouble this causes me. ICQ doesn't work right, I can't play most online games, simple things like a DCC chat on IRC doesn't work, netmeeting doesn't work, the list goes on. I understand what you are trying to do, stop people from abusing the system and putting up static servers on a dynamic connection. Even the idea of blocking well known ports would be undesirable because the people you want to stop are, for the most part, smart enough to not use a standard port. Personally I am against any solution that punishes the good users to stop the few bad users. I personally feel the best solution would be to keep logs of connection time and bandwidth, and have something alert you to problem users, people with long uptimes and alot of outgoing bandwidth.

Granted some can be restricted, such as ICQ and mIRC, but others cannot (netmeeting). And again, let's say you open up ports 4000-5000 for ICQ users, what's to stop your "bad" user from just putting a server on that port. Another viable option would be to do regular port scans on your users, but anyone using a *NIX based system will easily be able to detect and block those (unless you use a utility such as nmap, and use it's stealth mode). This is getting rather complicated tho. One last thing, since most of the original posting was chopped off, I'm going on some assumptions. I am assuming that this is in an ISP situation where you have dialup users with dynamically assigned IP addresses. If this is in a corporate situation, then you can throw most of what I said out the window. In a corporate situation I'm all for the restrictive firewall, I still thing changing the IP out from under them is a bad idea. We have applications in the company where I work, that run over the network, if my IP were to change mid-stream that would greatly reduce my productivity. -Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 17 7:59:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from awfulhak.org (dynamic-107.max1-du-ws.dialnetwork.pavilion.co.uk [212.74.8.107]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 739EA14E54 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 07:59:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (root@keep.lan.Awfulhak.org [172.16.0.8]) by awfulhak.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA04454; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 15:52:35 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from brian@lan.awfulhak.org) Received: from keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (brian@localhost.lan.Awfulhak.org [127.0.0.1]) by keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA01025; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 15:55:08 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from brian@keep.lan.Awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <199908171455.PAA01025@keep.lan.Awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: sanjay@packetstream.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ipnat clarification In-reply-to: Your message of "Mon, 16 Aug 1999 09:37:29 PDT." <37B83E49.8E8716C7@packetstream.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Tue, 17 Aug 1999 15:55:08 +0100 From: Brian Somers Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > hello, > > I am trying to use the nat functionality of freebsd.

Wow, thanks. xntpd is quite a beast, and the man page reads like War and Peace. Here are a few follow-up questions: - when xntpd synchronizes with another host, does it do micro-adjustments to prevent time wrinkles (even the first time), or does is do one big adjustment? - is there a way to run it "standalone", ie, to adjust a clock on an unnetworked server?

It's simple, take a i386 machine with freebsd 3.2 installed on it. Put an 1.44 inch disk in the drive wich is formatted with the ms dos fs. then mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt then cd /mnt then ls I tryed to copy a file from my hd to the disk, but the disk was write protected, so it didnt work. I had one file on the floppy and tryed to remove it, but i got an error cause the disk was write protected. Then i took the floppy out and remove the write protection and put the floppy in again and typed ls again. On that moment freebsd 3.2 hangs. I tryed this 3 times and everytime i had the same result. Do you know this bug? Is this fixed in 4.0? Sincerely, Reinoud.

You can have it use the internal clock as a time source. I usually do this in my ntp.conf: peer mypeer.host.com server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 That tells ntp that it has two time sources; mypeer.host.com and 127.127.1.0 (which is a codename for the internal clock). The internal clock is set to a stratum of 10, which makes it very low priority. when your net connection is up it will sync to mypeer.host.com.

The whole thing? Especialy the last 3 words? Somehow your system clock has gotten very far out of whack. Like, almost 3 hours out of whack. Use ntpdate to synch your clock manually to the preferred server from your ntp.conf file, then start xntpd. It's a good idea to do that every time anyway to avoid this exact situation.

Not at all. I've had versions of Freebsd from 2.1.5 through 3.2-Stable running on a dell server for years and never had a lick of trouble.

Did you unmount the fs before removing the floppy? If not that would explain what you're seeing, which would not be a bug. If you did umount it first, I'd say this is a bug and you should use send-pr to report it.

I was thinking of getting 2 printers (one color inkjet and one monochrome laser jet). My questions become: 1) I would like to get high resolution color output on the inkjet, do people have specific printer recommendations (I was considering an Epson Stylus 850). Are there any good inkjets with native postscript support (I'd be willing to pay a bit more for it I guess). 2) Is there any recommendations regarding PCI cards providing an extra parallel port that I should be aware of (one vendor here is pushing SIIG cards)? 3) For the printer suggested in (1) how can I get the best output quality if I must use a software driver (e.g. ghostscript installation hints and options). 4) For a monochrome laser, is an HP1100 or HP2100 (if I feel rich :-) a good choice?

I don't need all the fancy Verisign, etc. stuff. The SSLeay docs describe how to do that. Can't easily tell you since it's been over a year since I did it. But it wasn't that hard. Basically you first generate a CA certificate and then use that to certify your own certificate. Most browser will allow you to add such a self signed certificate. Roelof PS also noticed that the O'Reilly apache book has a chapter about SSL including making certificates.

The Epson was postscript by drivers and the drivers at one point were only for WIndows or a MAC. I looked up what printers supported postscript and, at that time, there was a Xerox, a Lexmark OPTRA, and an HP2500CM. The Xerox was the only one supporting PS 3. Some of them come with 10/100 NIC's built in and I like that flexibility. I have two injets and an old Brother HL8e laser that is on a printserver. Less trouble interacting with both Windows and FreeBSD. I haven't been printing color from FreeBSD and those printers are on parallel ports. All of my Adobe stuff is Windows based and running on NT right now. None of them have PS. I could add it to my HP 1600C but that would be throwing $500 US away in my book. > 2) Is there any recommendations regarding PCI cards providing an > extra parallel port that I should be aware of (one vendor > here is pushing SIIG cards)?

I tried ghostscript and none of the interfaces did 1200dpi color. They also did a number of things poorly such as fills. Why emulate when you can use the real thing. > 4) For a monochrome laser, is an HP1100 or HP2100 (if I feel rich :-) > a good choice? The HP 4050 is a much better choice because it comes with PS 2 and for $300 you can add a duplexer if it becomes important. The HP 2100 would be my only other choice because for $100+ you can add postscript to it. The local Office Depot has a TN model for $999, which means networking and postscript, but you can buy a 4050 for $982 at buy.com and get a lot more printer. The 1100 looks like a personal printer and I don't trust them for duty cycle.

There is a comparison in the FreeBSDzine at http://www.daemonnews.org/199908/d-advocate.html It depends on what your needs are. No system rates 10's across the board in my book. The problem is whether the 2's interfere. If they do, you made a bad choice. I think FreeBSD is a more mature system and has better control in the committment process. Anyone can suggest a change but "the" expert has to make the change. I think that is very important.

What Reinoud did is only "improper use" if the operating system does not provide some kind of catch in the case that someone does this. You can assume he came from the Microsoft world. In that horrid world, it is known that the USER is not supposed to be able to cause such a crash, though we all know better. In the unix world we assume that you are familiar with how unix does things and will pay attention to such details. Who would have thought, coming from the microsoft world, that one would have to "unmount" (whatever THAT is) a disk! It would have been possible for the designers of any particular flavor of unix to implement something that would prevent this. However actually doing it is another thing. We have a base "format" in which we "mount" media in general that has been around for a long time. If we change that, we risk incompatibility, and we also make our kernel quite a bit larger as we would have to have more than one base function (rather, set of 's) for making media available to the user. Anyway, it just isn't something anybody wants to waste time on, as we know how it works currently, and if you follow the directions, which happen to be posted all over the place, you won't get into too much trouble. Some os's actually "mount" and "unmount" some media, each time an action is taken upon it. This creates a high amount of overhead that us unix buffs don't want, but it does prevent the user from crashing the system. Under unix it is also assumed that the "user" will not be mounting and unmounting media, but that an experienced "Administrator" would be doing it. Well, the face of unix has changed, and now the pocket hacks are all running it. Most of us take on the challenge knowing we will have to learn how to play by the *nix rules. So to those who do not like it, please write some code to send to our good friends at the FreeBSD project that will fix this little annoyance :) (had to put my "2 cents" in.) -d > -----Original Message----- > From: William Melanson [mailto:wjm@gate.net] > Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 1999 1:41 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: bug wich crashes freebsd 3.2 (HA!) > > > On Tue, 17 Aug 1999, Reinoud Koornstra wrote: > > % > % No i didnt umount the disk first. > % But i didnt umount it on purpose to see. > % And what if a user forgets to umount it before removing? > % A whole os cant just hang by a user mistake now can it? > % Bye, > % > > If you use the os improperly of course it can!

The only part that caused the problem was the library that is specified on the page below. Just replace it with older version that is also specified on the page. If you did network install(which is broken, but there is a way around by editing instdb.ini) make sure .sversionrc points to $HOME/Office51 NOT /usr/local/Office51. If you are running directly off /usr/local/Office51 or from your homedir as STANDALONE installation then you are fine.

The script is wrong. If you RTFM'ed wormcontrol, you could've saved some bucks. Obviously, the last line of burnaudio says: wormcontrol -f $device fixate 1 onp Which is wrong. fixate type 1 is for "CDROM"(data) You have to change 1 to 0 which is to fixate audio CD's. I tried this, worked fine. If you want to play the cd's on other non-computer-cdrom-cd-players you need to take out onp(open next program area) and "close" the CD.

The advocacy mailing list is not the proper place to ask such a question. The appropriately named FreeBSD-Questions mailing list is. You'll get fast responses to your questions there. I've forwarded your question to the -questions list, and directed replies to the list as well. The quick answer is yes, you can do this with samba and apsfilter. The long answer is it has been years since I did this and I don't remember how, but I'm certain the helpful people who answer questions about FreeBSD will be able to help you quite quickly.

Everything is fine on this machine, FreeBSD3.2-R, wd0, fd0, cdrom - all OK. 1) tried on both kinds of floppies, BSD and MDOS. 2) tried writing to empty floppy drive 3) tried writing to MSDOS mounted disk with a BSD File System disk in the drive. Result: No crash, I am not sure why I did not get a message that I was swapping floppies of different file systems when I wrote a file. steps: 1) mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy 2) take out mounted floppy and put in the BSD disk 3) write the test text file to /floppy from /cdrom | . no diagnostic | . file was file, cool # Works fine. I guess I will find out why 'mount' or 'cp' did not tell me I swapped file systems in my, "check when I have nothing else to do" box. However, if I should have been told I would like to know. -d --- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 17 16:44:57 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alicia.nttmcl.com (alicia.nttmcl.com [216.69.69.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BE20E14C83 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 16:44:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from norman@nttmcl.com) Received: from localhost by alicia.nttmcl.com (8.8.5/3.5W(96/10/22)) id QAA27781 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 16:44:54 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 17 Aug 1999 16:44:54 -0700 (PDT) From: Norman Nie To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ipfw + bridging: fwd rule enacted but no effect 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 Hello, I'm having problems with ipfw fwd + bridging. Please help! My setup is: [A]-----[fxp0:D:fxp1]-----[C] fxp2 ---- | | [B] D is the box that runs ipfw + bridging. My rule is very simple: 100 fwd B log all from A to C last rule allow from any to any Ideally , it should redirect any packets from A to C and emit them out on interface fxp2 (linked to B). And those packets are to be dropped dead on B. What happened is that logging messages indicate that rule 100 were envoked but with no effect. One can still ping from A to C. IPFW with no bridging (ie. machine B acting as a router) works fine. Bridging alone works fine. But when combining ipfw + bridging, the fwd command doesn't work. Any one has the same problem before? Also, I assume when doing bridging, I don't need to config the routing table in machine B. Is this correct? Any commets highly appreciated.

And the whole reason for starting as root is to bind to port 80. Have you tried having the main Listen port be something above 1024 (or 1023?) and removing the setuid bit on httpd? (just a thought.

Nope. FreeBSD only works on x86 machines and Alpha's. You should try NetBSD or OpenBSD though. They are both based on the same Berkely source that FreeBSD is. http://www.netbsd.org/ http://www.openbsd.org/ Basically NetBSD concentrates on supporting more platforms while OpenBSD concentrates on security. -- Jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 17 17:46:26 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns.kconline.com (ns.kconline.com [207.51.167.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5458114EA8 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 17:46:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ghormann@ns.kconline.com) Received: from localhost (ghormann@localhost) by ns.kconline.com (8.9.3/8.8.5) with ESMTP id TAA06903 for ; Tue, 17 Aug 1999 19:45:54 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 17 Aug 1999 19:45:54 -0500 (EST) From: Greg Hormann To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Errors from savecore/kvm_mkdb (one more try) 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 Didn't get any responses the first time. ------ I have a 3.1R "play" box at home that panics about once a week. I decided to try and save a dump file, so I followed directions in Chapter 22 of the Handbook. (After 5 years of owning and working on a FreeBSD servers, I have *never* needed a dump file before. Gota love stability.) Specificly, I used "config -g", set dumpdev="/dev/wd1s1b" in rc.conf, compiled the kernel, saved a copy as /kernel.debug, stripped it with "strip -g kernel" then did a "make install." On boot, 2 error messages appeared which bothered me. Couldn't find an info in handbook, man pages, or mail archives. These anything to be worried about? savecore /kernel _dumpdev not in namelist ... kvmm_mkdb: /kernel stripped inappropriate file type or format Also top didn't work complaining that nlist wasn't defined.

I'd guess that you forgot the -g on the 'strip' command. Try this: $ nm /kernel|grep dumpdev kernel: no symbols If you get the 'no symbols' message, then you've accidentally stripped the kernel completely. In that case, go back and re-strip the kernel with -g and reinstall it. You don't need to reboot. You will need to reissue the 'dumpon' command (tell it the name of the dump device).

Socks 5 will allow for multiple people using it at once. I have 2 people on at the some time here at home, using socks5 over a cable modem (but there's not real difference between this and your PPP connection). ICQ, on the other hand, doesn't always cooperate. Methinks the mirabilis folks don't quite know how to make a socks5 client (ICQ sometimes works, but other times I can't chat or do file transfers with someone else behind a firewall, even if they've also got a properly set-up socks5 proxy). > and could I use MPPP for this and how do I use > MPPP?

Much of the discussion here has to do with networking and servers. You might want FreeBSD if you will require assistance in these areas. Linux newsgroups such as alt.os.linux and comp.os.linux.misc, on the other hand, often dwell on problems with the setup of stand-alone systems such as desktop and ppp setup. It appears to me that Red Hat may support more PC hardware than FreeBSD. My inexpensive Canon BJC-250 printer works with Red Hat 6.0, and I don't know whether it will work with FreeBSD. Don't think that your choice will be "written in stone." Once you are comfortable with the process of installing, it is relatively easy to delete your partitions and try another os if you aren't satisfied with your first choice, which is what I'm doing right now, having wiped Red Hat and cracked my FreeBSD book to get ready to install it this weekend. Red Hat definitely is easy for a beginner with little knowledge of Unix to install, but as soon as you start to work with it you have to learn the same things that you must know to use FreeBSD. For myself, as a home user, I think it will be a long time before I test the limitations either of Red Hat or FreeBSD. The limits I struggle with are my own. Again, if this is no help to you, be more specific about what you want to do with your system if you want advice from the professionals. Good luck to you, Brett G.

Once I am clear on what I need to ftp from the net I will be attempting what I am about to suggest to you. One of the easiest ways to approach this might be to strip the machine to its bare essentials, pulling your sound card, nic and anything else you don't need and try again. (my blind guess *not knowing your system* is that it may be a nic and something else) Try booting again and if you get past the "probing" stage then you have at least narrowed down the possibilites of where the conflict may be coming from. (it still freezes consult your bios and diable any serial ports your not actively using, if that doesnt work then you may have seriouse hardware issues) Replace the components you pulled one at a time until if freezes again and then you will have one of the devices that is having a conflict identified. Determine address and irq of that device and then figure out what else is trying to use the same resources. hope that helps jim Alex wrote: > When I try to install freeBSD ver 3.2 my computer freezes > when the message "Probing Devices..." appears on the screen.

If a system uses "amd" and if it mounts fd's automatically(like my system) then that user can seriously harm the computer. I tried the exact same thing whoever wrote below and it DID freeze the machine, had to reboot it by pressing "reset" button. I am using 4.0 so the bug(?) is not fixed. Obviously, I haven't had ANY problems like this for over 5-6 years eversince I first started using FreeBSD.. and the user has to be "pretty dumb" to make mistakes like that anyway. However, I feel bad that there is this kind of problem which FreeBSD can't handle well or as normal. This should definitely be fixed in the near future even though it doesn't happen frequently or never happen to somebody. Bug is a bug and should be fixed. Even if there is a bug that is not normally caused by anyone, it's still a bug.

I will try to give some hints in their general direction, please search in the archives of the mailinglists and read some parts of the FAQ and handbook as they provide background information. And don't forget `man'. Anyways, the ep0 driver specifies an attach to isa? with some irq and iomem values. Look at your line in your kernel file, do they match the setting of the card? No? try to change the value of the card with 3c5x9cfg.exe or change the setting within the kernel config file. Did you try a boot with boot: set_verbose boot: boot yet? It might yield additional information. tcsh? usr/ports/shells/tcsh Not requested?

I recently upgraded from 2.2.6 to 3.2, which shouldn't be too different to 2.2.5 to 3.2. What I did was NFS mount /usr/src and do `make aout-to-elf-build', then `make aout-to-elf-install'. (I know I could do these in one step, `make aout-to-elf', but I like to do it separately.) It wasn't flawless for me though, but there were only minor problems. I think the main thing I forgot to do was upgrade /etc before rebooting, which meant that the ELF libraries weren't set up by ldconfig (or it might have been the a.out libraries, I can't remember). If you upgrade /etc/rc* (being careful not to clobber any changes you've made), and do `make aout-to-elf', you *should* get a working 3.2 system. There's no guarantee though, something could go wrong, so it would be a good idea to try it on a non-production system first. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 4: 4:30 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from volodya.prime.net.ua (volodya.prime.net.ua [195.64.229.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A195F14E2D for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 04:04:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from andyo@prime.net.ua) Received: from prime.net.ua (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by volodya.prime.net.ua (8.9.3/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA12176; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 14:05:43 +0300 (EEST) (envelope-from andyo@prime.net.ua) Message-ID: <37BA9382.A9EAA1FA@prime.net.ua> Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 14:05:39 +0300 From: "Andy V.

If you want to resisze a partition you'll have to erase it first, recreate it, then copy all the files back in again.. :) ..However, 32Mb should be enough for a / partition, however if you have /tmp, /var, or /home on the / partition, these can fill up the root partition pretty quicky, so its a good idea to move them out of the / partition and into a another one (/usr for example). You could do this by symlinking them to the new directories..

By searching other mailing lists, now I know that it is a kinda known bug in the voxware3.5 driver. Is there any effort going on to fix it? FYI, I tested with different memory sizes using MAXMEM option (32M and 64M, the latter is the physical memory size). Guess what? With 32MB memory, mpg123 worked! Not always, but most of the time did with one line of (annoying) opening message: >> SoundBlaster: DSP Command(0xd4) timeout. IRQ conflict ? I give up. My conclusion is that, unfurtunately, FreeBSD sound system is broken. I don't know whether it is the voxware driver or other parts of kernel. I had no lock with OSS driver either. (They also mentioned a problem with dma buffer scheme or something like that.) cheers -- Kee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 6:10:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from po3.wam.umd.edu (po3.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.165]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AC28014E6F for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 06:10:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from culverk@wam.umd.edu) Received: from rac1.wam.umd.edu (root@rac1.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.141]) by po3.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA03255 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:10:44 -0400 (EDT) Received: from rac1.wam.umd.edu (sendmail@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by rac1.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id JAA25604 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:10:43 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost (culverk@localhost) by rac1.wam.umd.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA25600 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:10:43 -0400 (EDT) X-Authentication-Warning: rac1.wam.umd.edu: culverk owned process doing -bs Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:10:43 -0400 (EDT) From: Kenneth Wayne Culver To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: shutdown -p now 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 want shutdown to make my computer turn off without pushing the power button.

I think the point being made is that if a mistake is made or an inexperienced user is at the system, there should be some failsafe to prevent the system from locking down or panic'ing. When we're talking about a floppy (or any removable media) there is a vary good chance that, the mounted file system could be removed w/o unmounting it. It would be just good practice to protect the system against that. If FreeBSD is to stay primarily a server oriented OS or a 'nitche market', than for the most part, no one cares because 99% of people who use FreeBSD know to mount / unmount the floppy (as inconvenient and un-intuitive as that may be). If FreeBSD does want more of a user base, and is going to be touted as a 'desktop operating system', then certain concessions and falsifies need to be integrated into the system, as to not drive those potential users away. That's just my opinion. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Boune, Damian [SMTP:DBoune@co.napa.ca.us] > Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 1999 5:57 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: bug wich crashes freebsd 3.2 > > Our friend makes a good point.

But that does not mean your computer can not run if you have less swap space. Suppose you have only a couple of small processes, who is going to use that much of swap space? However, if you are running large applications and memory becomes in short supply, some processes must be swappped out. Otherwise, the OS will start killing your processes to make room for others (I am not sure about this point though). Anyway, this question is general in OS. I mean it is not FreeBSD style or Linux style. To determine how many swap space in use, you may try the command swapinfo (I do not have much experience on this). Hope these help. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 8: 3:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from castor.ssimicro.com (birch.ssimicro.com [199.247.51.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 575DC14EDD for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 08:03:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from allanr@ssimicro.com) Received: from outpost.ssimicro.com (outpost.ssimicro.com [199.247.87.133]) by castor.ssimicro.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA13909; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:02:17 -0600 (MDT) Received: by outpost.ssimicro.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.1960.3) id ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:01:16 -0600 Message-ID: From: Allan Ross To: "'questions@freebsd.org'" Cc: "'Alex Kwan'" Subject: RE: How to hangup dialup PPP connection Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:01:13 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.1960.3) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I didn't see anyone reply to this so give this a shot: pppctl /var/tmp/internet close Allan Ross General Manager SSI Micro Yellowknife, NT Ph: (867) 669-7500 Fax: (867) 669-7510 Web: http://www.ssimicro.com -----Original Message----- From: Alex Kwan [SMTP:alexkwan@pacific.net.hk] Sent: Friday, August 13, 1999 6:52 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: How to hangup dialup PPP connection << File: ATT00010.txt; charset = big5 >> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 8: 4:46 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from voicenet.com (mail12.voicenet.com [207.103.0.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 375CF157C9 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 08:04:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Abe@Nerdy.Org) Received: (qmail 19048 invoked from network); 18 Aug 1999 15:04:24 -0000 Received: from nnjdialup119-pri.voicenet.com (HELO jaspa) (207.103.135.82) by mail12.voicenet.com with SMTP; 18 Aug 1999 15:04:24 -0000 Message-ID: <000701bee98a$e80a4b60$528767cf@jaspa> From: "Abe Rooter" To: Subject: Installation Help Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 11:03:57 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0004_01BEE969.5E6A1140" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0004_01BEE969.5E6A1140 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi.

I also had a bad experience when upgrading from freebsd 2.2.1 to freebsd 2.2.7 with device names of ide-disks. i have a backup, but restoring 80GB takes some time. thank you for any help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- output from dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-1999 FreeBSD Inc.

It's probably a good idea to leave root's shell as csh, just in case something horrible happens and /usr can't be mounted. There should be a user called `toor' which uses bash as its shell; log in as that instead. -- cliff crawford http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/cjc26/ main(q){6-q&&main(q+1),putchar(67+3*(19%q-q/4));} To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 9:54:22 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from radius.wavefire.com (radius.workfire.net [139.142.95.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D10CF15388 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:54:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from swen@wavefire.com) Received: (qmail 21578 invoked from network); 18 Aug 1999 17:13:53 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO swen) (139.142.95.222) by radius.workfire.net with SMTP; 18 Aug 1999 17:13:53 -0000 Message-Id: <3.0.32.19990818095505.00962c10@mail.wavefire.com> X-Sender: swen@mail.wavefire.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 09:55:05 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Chameleon Subject: RE: locate database too small Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/enriched; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In your /usr/libexec directory, run the locate.updatedb file. this will troll through your directory tree and update the locate database Swen Kabis At 09:38 AM 8/18/99 -0700, you wrote: >Hi; > >When I try: > $ locate < >I get the Error: > locate: database too small: /var/db/locate.database > >How to fix this problem so I can locate files and do 'whereis << file_name> >also. >This is a new 3.2-RELEASE machine. > > >Dan > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > > ~ -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- GCS/O d-(+) s:+>:- a- C++++ UB++$>++++$ P+ L++>++++$ E-- W++(++) N+ o?

But if you're thinking of one of those upgrade chips to take a 75-150MHz machine up to 333MHz, AMD K6-2, then I'd suggest you save your money.

If something horrible happens and /usr can't be mounted, you're not likely to make it to multi-user mode.

Cross" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I will make the one assumption that you are not using DHCP for this... You need to edit /etc/rc.conf. First you need to tell the system which network interfaces to enable, this is done with the variable 'network_interfaces'. This is a space deliminated list of all of the interfaces that you wish to configure. On very recent systems this variable can be set to "auto" to have the system try to config all the interfaces by itself. You likely do not have such a system, so you will need the more manual way. You need to collect a list of all the interfaces on your machine. I do this with the following command: > # ifconfig -a > xl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 > inet 10.130.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.130.1.255 > ether 00:a0:24:bb:00:c4 > media: 100baseTX (100baseTX ) > supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP > lp0: flags=8810 mtu 1500 > tun0: flags=8010 mtu 1500 > sl0: flags=c010 mtu 552 > ppp0: flags=8010 mtu 1500 > lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 > inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 In this case I have network interfaces: xl0, lp0, tun0, sl0, ppp0, and lo0. Since you don't have them configured at all you will likely not see any of the indented information, since that is a result of the configuration ;). The 'lp0' driver is for a parallel port PLIP interface. "sl0" is a SLIP, 'ppp0' is for PPP. You will not want configure any of these. You will likely wish to configure any remaining interface, and you must configure lo0 (the loopback interface). For the above example the line in /etc/rc.conf is: network_interfaces="xl0 lo0" Now for each interface you need to tell it what IP it has, this is done by interface_IFNAME="options". So for the above example it is: ifconfig_xl0="inet 10.130.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_lp0="inet 127.0.0.1" # DO NOT CHANGE THIS. Finally you will want to setup the gateway for the system, this is done via: defaultrouter="IP" In my case this is: defaultrouter="10.130.1.254" So that makes the *entire* network config in /etc/rc.conf be: > network_interfaces="xl0 lo0" > ifconfig_xl0="inet 10.130.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" > ifconfig_lp0="inet 127.0.0.1" # DO NOT CHANGE THIS. > defaultrouter="10.130.1.254" That should be all you need to do, just season that information with your own net.interfaces and pepper with your IP addresses. -- David Cross | email: crossd@cs.rpi.edu Systems Administrator/Research Programmer | Web: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~crossd Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, | Ph: 518.276.2860 Department of Computer Science | Fax: 518.276.4033 I speak only for myself. | WinNT:Linux::Linux:FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 11:24:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from diablo.peritek.com (diablo.peritek.com [198.151.249.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CE7C5155B8 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 11:24:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ibjoe@home.com) Received: from neptune (neptune [198.151.249.84]) by diablo.peritek.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id LAA02411 sender ibjoe@home.com for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 11:24:13 -0700 (PDT) X-Envelope-From: ibjoe@home.com X-Envelope-To: Message-Id: <2.2.32.19990818182414.00967f68@netmail.home.com> X-Sender: ibjoe@netmail.home.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.2 (32) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 11:24:14 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Joe Subject: sio boot / console configuration?

Boot your system into FreeBSD (that should be simple for you right now ;) and log in as root. Execute the command: "boot0inst wd0" thne "/bin/sync;reboot" When the system comes back up it should display something like: F1 DOS F2 FreeBSD F1 <--- This says that F1 is the default if you don't do anything. If you wait a few seconds it will just do the default entry for you. It saves the default each time you go, so if you boot into FreeBSD and then reboot (remotely or something) it will boot into FreeBSD again.

Make a directory, and when you learn something, document whatever it is, and an example of it, eg, getenv() you just learned how to use, document it in getenv.c with an example, so if you forget something at a later date, you can go back and refrence it. Ive been doing this for a few months, and it helps. On Wed, 18 Aug 1999, Darren WIebe wrote: > Thanks everybody for the links and info.

There is one thing, that all of the commands given do, that no one has mentioned to you. After you edit the master.passwd file you need to rebuild the database for it, by running the pwd_mkdb. If you don't run pwd_mkdb the system ignores any changes that you've made in master.passwd. The easier solution is to use use "vipw" which opens up the master.passwd file with vi (or whatever editor EDITOR is set to). Also, using the chfn, chpass, & chsh all also run the pwd_mkdb command after making your edits. Hopes this helps. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Bill A. K.

That means good readability, not looks. Whereas beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, readability assuredly does not. Barring the by now ancient amber CRT phosphor colors most research shows that black on white (note the order) is best readable. The FreeBSD site is emminently readable, whereas the old freshmeat site was not. In fact with my previous monitor's settings I couldn't even read that site without upping the brightness (I'm a programmer, for text high contrast is needed contrary to the high brightness for graphics work). Clearly I was not alone in that they changed to a much brighter color scheme. As well as black"er" on white lettering. > (i just realized how dumb this letter sounds, but hey its 8:30 in the > morning what do you expect) It's always 8.30 in the morning someplace. B.t.w. you send it to general lists, maybe it would be better to send it directly to the webmaster. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.

The 'Makefile' has been customized to include automount maps for our IRIX machines as was the 'Makefile' in the old NIS Master. The problem is that for some reason the program 'yp_mkdb' in 3.2 is much more picky. It does not tolerate lines as such: nschein -rw,intr nister:/usr/home:& It complains when it encounters the '-' if removed it works fine. Also it has problems with the '+' and absence of a whitespace following the first ASCI string in the following line: +auto.home What has changed in yp_mkdb? Is there a way to escape certain symbols? I have already tried \ '' "". Or is there another way to make the database file?

And why are you doing a lot of work as root? I just log in under my normal account, which uses zsh, and use `su -m' when I need root, which keeps me under zsh when working as root, even though root's shell is /bin/sh. I think this is the best way of doing it, personally. > i've already changed the path to my shell in both /etc/passwd and > /etc/master.passwd but it didn't change it.

I've switched to zsh now though, but I think that is what I used in bash.

In ppp, after the adtd9999999 I get the usual "Connect 49333......" and the the Login and Password prompts. As usual this gives me the "Entering PPP...." statement, an IP address, and the the usual "MTU 1524." All this is normal, but usually at this point I *always* have to press enter (again) before the process is completed and the ppp prompt changes to PPP. But now, it just hangs. No matter how many times I press enter, it doesn't respond. Getting out of term (by entering ~.) just hangs at that point, and I have to completely shut ppp down before trying - unsuccessfully today - again. Can anyone help?

He said anything OTHER than "shutdown -h now" is dangerous. I've always used just "reboot", and I've never lost data. This does the equivalent of a showdown -r now", at least I thought it did, and I would not call it dangerous either.

I know it can be hacked in, and I have identified several spots where that could be done, but if there's a proper way i'd like to know about it. 2) My FreeBSD box is currently running on a somewhat glitchy 2GB Sumsung drive. I have a rock solid 2.5GB Quantum drive coming back from loan soon, and i'm going to be moving the system over to that. I've done this with Linux before, but never with FreeBSD. What additional concerns are there? I am aware of the need to watch /etc/fstab very closely, and make sure it stays accurate to the way the system will be the next time it boots up. The thing i am very uncertain about it bootstrapping the new drive. This was done on the Samsung at install time by sysinstall, how do I do it after install on a new drive? Please make sure I receive an email of your reply, I am not currently subscribed to the list.

Please try changing the default values. (Defaults are: TCP/IP port = 3306, UNIX_SOCKET = /tmp/mysql.sock) Just in case change both and start mysqld for example like: mysqld --port=3307 --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock2 (and the other options if needed) Then try connection using 'mysql --port=3307 --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock2' See mysqld --help.

If you _are_ changing processor types (like from a 486/Cyrix MediaGX to a Pentium/K6/K6-2/Cyrix, or a Pentium/K6/K6-2 to a Pentium II/Pentium III/Xeon), then you need to make sure you have one of the lines: cpu "I586_CPU" cpu "I686_CPU" You could just recompile a kernel with both of those lines (and a line for a 486, if that's what you have now). It doesn't hurt to have the lines and not have the CPU (except maybe that the kernel eats up a bit more disk and RAM). But if you don't have the proper cpu line, then your kernel won't boot. --Ludwig Pummer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 16:34:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from inet.chip-web.com (c1003518-a.plstn1.sfba.home.com [24.1.82.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 5A7DE1598A for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 16:34:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Received: (qmail 16940 invoked from network); 18 Aug 1999 23:34:52 -0000 Received: from speedy.chip-web.com (HELO speedy) (172.16.1.1) by inet.chip-web.com with SMTP; 18 Aug 1999 23:34:52 -0000 Message-Id: <4.2.0.58.19990818161522.00bdf630@toy> X-Sender: ludwigp@toy (Unverified) X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.2.0.58 Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 16:33:19 -0700 To: "Alejandro Ramirez" From: Ludwig Pummer Subject: RE: How to reset the log file in free-bsd.

I think it should be in /usr/local/sbin, and the packing list agrees with me. The right way to start/stop Apache is with `apachectl stop` or `apachectl start`.

Not currently, but we're working on it. I'd be interested to know why you need more than 32 MB. I'd guess you've got stuff there which doesn't belong on the root file system.

I converted our Windows 95 server with a SIIG PCI parallel port card to a FreeBSD 3.2 machine. I couldn't get FreeBSD to find the card, not matter what I did. But the $29 SIIG High-IRQ ISA parallel card works great! If you have an open ISA slot and a free IRQ, I'd go that route (cheaper, too). The card is selectable between IRQ 3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12 and 15, DMA 0, 1 and 3, and I/O 3BCh, 378h, 268h, 280h and 288h. I've got a HP LaserJet 5 running off this card and an HP DesignJet 600 plotter off the motherboard's port running just fine under FreeBSD. --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!

To clarify that "shutdown and reboot immediately": it does first do all that stuff I mentioned above (except going to single user mode). Although I'm no longer so sure about the umounting of the disks. There's no mention of that in either reboot.c or shutdown.c, but it may be in the reboot() system call. In any case, fsck doesn't complain when you reboot after one of the shutdown commands mentioned above. Yes, you're right. It doesn't go to single user mode. I was mistakenly associating that with killing all of the other processes. Looking through the shutdown.c source, I see that 'shutdown -r' just calls 'reboot -l' and 'shutdown -h' just calls 'halt -l' (and reboot and halt are just hardlinks to the same program). Reboot does do all of the nice killing processes and syncing disks, though. --Ludwig Pummer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 18 20:59: 4 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from revolution.3-cities.com (revolution.3-cities.com [204.203.224.155]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D3A3714BD3 for ; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 20:59:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from 3-cities.com (kenn2167.bossig.com [208.26.242.167]) by revolution.3-cities.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA02182; Wed, 18 Aug 1999 20:57:30 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <37BB80A6.DDB7111E@3-cities.com> Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 20:57:26 -0700 From: Kent Stewart Organization: BOSSig X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Evren Yurtesen Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: "shutdown -h now" risk?

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG OK, Joe, if you would just RTFM you would know... refer to the file: /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot/README.serial There you see, all you have to do is make sure that sio0 is configured with flags 0x10 in the kernel. Then create a file in / called boot.config with one line containing -P Now when you unplug the keyboard the serial terminal will be a console. But oops, once it boots up that console doesn't work anymore. So edit the file /etc/ttys for ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure so the serial port still works after boot.

Recently I built the gnome-1.0.0. meta port (which in turn built everything it required). I was upset to find that--among other things (does enlightenment work reliably for anyone? ack!)--everything seemed to be running rather sluggishly. Upon further reflection, I realized that I've been building _everything_ without having any CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS environment variables set (or passing them as in "make CFLAGS=-O2 install"). A rookie question indeed, but do most folks have C[XX]FLAGS defined to their favorite optimization (and miscellaneous) settings before building ports (e.g., set in your .profile, .shrc, or equivalent) or set them at build time? If so, I expect definitely explain a lot of the sluggishness I'm witnessing: I even had to build XFree86 as a port (I upgraded via CVSup from 3.1-release). Additionally, is there a way to easily rebuild only the ports that you've already built and installed? I thought that issuing a "make reinstall" from /usr/ports might do it, but this appears to not do anything differently from "make install" in the same location--at least not before the point at which I utilized Ctrl-C. I've looked through the ports sections of the Handbook and The Complete FreeBSD and didn't see anything on this. Funny, because I think it might be useful when you perform a make world, thereby updating the build tools, or to rebuild the installed ports after a CVSup has updated your /usr/ports hierarchy.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I have installed FreeBSD on a separate harddisk, and my other disk contains Windows. TheWindows-disk is set to primary master and the FreeBSD-disk is set to primary slave. I have also installed a bootMGR. If I want to run Windows everything is o.k, and Windows starts without problem. But I do not want to run Windows ;) and when I choose FreeBSD it seems to boot normal but then it fails with the error: Panic:cant mount root I understand that this error comes from confusion between the boot block´s and the kernel´s understanding of the disk devices. I have therefore tried to stop the OS from booting and at the boot-prompt I have tried to start the system with the following combinations: 1:wd(1,a)kernel = This one I think is the correct way to boot, but it fails with the messages: Changing root device to wd1s1a Swapon: /dev/wd0s1: Invalid argument Automatic reeboot in progress Can´t open /dev/wd0s1a: Invalid argument Can´t check file system Unexpected Inconsistency Automatic file system check faild, HELP! Then the os wants me to show him the path to another shell the Bourne-Shell but if I want to use sh I shall press return. If I then try to run stand/sysinstall I get the message Error opening terminal: cons25 1:wd(2,a)kernel = panic:cant mount root... ( it boots ) 1:wd(0,a)kernel = panic:cant mount root... ( it boots ) Everything else generates something with "wrong labels" ( does not boot ) What should I do and how should I do it? If you can help me I shall never use another OS then FreeBSD, promise! / Many Greetings from Sweden Jesper Blomstroem To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 19 1:27:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web601.yahoomail.com (web2004.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.68.204]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id EBE51150A5 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 01:27:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pek_yee@yahoo.com) Message-ID: <19990819082636.4066.rocketmail@web601.yahoomail.com> Received: from [203.106.4.2] by web2004.mail.yahoo.com; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 01:26:36 PDT Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 01:26:36 -0700 (PDT) From: Pek Yee Subject: To capture installation screen of FreeBSD 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 Could you tell me what software that i could use to capture the installation screens of FreeBSD?

It's a pci device - the isa? stuff is unnecessary. pnp0 should exist, and pnp os be off in the bios.

I have just joined the list. I would like to know if anybody knows a way to use RADIUS as the protocol to make authentication and accounting for ppp. As far as I know, there is a radius client inside the ppp protocol. However, after some trials, this client seems to be uncompatible with the merit RADIUS server. At the moment I'm using mgetty-1.1.11 to pickup dial in calls, which are later handled by ppp. But the authentication is done through ppp.secret instead of RADIUS. How can I change this ? Any suggestion would be welcome ......

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ben One more question before I begin. Since 2.2.5 is a.out only system and 3.2 will be elf by default, now that I have the 3.2. src what target should I be building first ? I look at the Makefile explanation but am not able to follow exactly which one I should run. THere are buildworld - which is something which I will need since I cannot afford to overwrite all binaries just yet. installworld - done after above after certain level of confidence upgrade - should this be done before or after the above 2 ? Also, about the mergemaster util. Should this be run before or after the above build process ? I did try running is *before* the build (which I am quite reluctant to do for now until I know which target to build) but got the following error: ....

Not dramatically, as such. Just that 3.2 has both ELF and a.out binary formats, while 2.2.5 has just a.out. Because of this, /etc/rc in 3.2 needs to run ldconfig to configure both formats of libraries. A program called mergemaster is supposed to be good for upgrading /etc, but I haven't looked at it much. I think it's in the ports tree, either under sysutils or misc, IIRC. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 19 4:58:42 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from virtual.kraft-s.ru (www.kraft-s.ru [195.128.153.195]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5AA73158F7 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 04:58:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sting@hippo.ru) Received: from sting (grata.hippo.ru [195.128.154.112]) by virtual.kraft-s.ru (8.9.3/8.9.0) with SMTP id QAA21000 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 16:58:13 +0500 Message-ID: <000901beea42$a9226fa0$0201a8c0@sting.grata.hippo.ru> From: "Korchagin, Dmitry" To: Subject: Permissions playing :-( Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 16:58:51 +0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0006_01BEEA64.1CD1E720" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0006_01BEEA64.1CD1E720 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I have changed permissions on several files and directories in way of testing user access.

After I recompile the kernel with SMP support, do I have to recompile all the system daemons (www, ftp, mail) for better performance, or will the new kernel be able to run two different threads on two CPUs simulteneously, thus giving me a performance boost without a major recompile? It would be really great if I don't have to recompile all the system software.. but it just sounds too easy to be true. - From my experience, top shows threads on both CPUs after going SMP without re-doing most of the system, but is it better to recompile anyway? I hope this question makes sense. The systems in question run 3.2-R (with scsi).

You don't need to recompile. It doesn't even make sense. The kernel will balance load on both cpus. There's no hidden flag set at compile time within the binaries about the number of cpus. :-) Regards // // Konrad Heuer ____ ___ _____= __=20 // Gesellschaft f=FCr wissenschaftliche / __/______ ___ / _ )/ __= / _ \ // Datenverarbeitung mbH G=D6ttingen / _// __/ -_) -_) _ |\ \/= // / // Am Fa=DFberg, D-37077 G=D6ttingen /_/ /_/ \__/\__/____/___= /____/=20 // Deutschland (Germany) ----- The Power to Serve ----= - // http://www.freebsd.org // kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de // To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 19 6: 3:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.tucows.com (mail.tucows.com [208.229.216.23]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 36D6214C36 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 06:03:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from arthur@tucows.com) Received: from Arthur.Linuxberg (starwars.linuxberg.org [208.229.216.41]) by mail.tucows.com (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id JAA17423 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 09:03:02 -0400 Received: from localhost (arthur@localhost) by Arthur.Linuxberg (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA00392 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 09:02:46 -0400 (EDT) X-Authentication-Warning: Arthur.Linuxberg: arthur owned process doing -bs Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 09:02:46 -0400 (EDT) From: "Arthur H.

As for software, there are mainly two choices: you may use the "original" ipfw + natd mechanism bundled with FreeBSD (take a look at /etc/rc.firewall) or Darren Reed's IP-Filter package, also bundled with FreeBSD 3.x. Start enabling gateway in your /etc/rc.conf: gateway_enable = "YES". I'd suggest IP-Filter, because IMO it's more powerful; take a look at http://cheops.anu.edu.au/~avalon/ip-filter.html. You would have to enable it in your kernel configuration file and recompile the kernel (look at /sys/i386/conf/LINT about enabling it and at www.freebsd.org about recompiling the kernel). Anyway, maybe ipfw + natd are more documented and you would easily find more people able to help you on this list (I tried both ipfw + natd and IP-Filter in the past, but currently I don't manage a firewall with FreeBSD, so I can't help you about details). It's up to you. First of all read the Handbook's intro to firewalls at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/firewalls.html. You'll have to set up the "public" interface on your machine with a public IP, i.e. one assigned to you by your ISP. Then you have to choose if you want to use NAT (Network Address Translation) or not: with NAT you would use a private class of IP addresses for your private network (192.168.0.0/24 for example, if a C class is enough for you) and they would be translated into a pool of public addresses or into a single public address by your BSD box. I'd suggest using NAT for flexibility; for example changing ISP would be almost painless... You could also have much more than 64 private IPs with your 64 public addresses only. Example for your case: Cisco's eth0 x.y.25.1/26, BSD public interface x.y.25.2/26, BSD private interface 192.168.0.1/24, your machines from 192.168.0.2/24 to 192.168.0.254/24. If you're using UTP on your LAN, you may connect the Cisco router and the BSD box directly with a cross-over cable. Probably it sounds complicated... Well, it is, at least a little bit. ;-) --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

You want `aout-to-elf', I think this is the same as `upgrade'. I think it builds an aout world, and uses that to build an ELF world, which it then installs. So aout-to-elf is the only target you need, though I'd suggest breaking it up, see below. > Also, about the mergemaster util. Should this be run before or > after the above build process ? I'd suggest aout-to-elf-build, mergemaster, aout-to-elf-install, but I don't use mergemaster. > mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist -p /var/tmp/temproot/usr > mtree: line 156: unknown keyword nochange > *** Error code 1 That's presumably because you are using an older version of mtree. Just do the aout-to-elf-build, upgrade /etc manually (all you should need to update are the rc scripts), and then do the aout-to-elf-install. This should work. You could upgrade /etc with mergemaster after the upgrade if you wish. In fact, you can probably skip upgrading /etc until after the upgrade. The only reason not updating /etc caused a problem for me was that the machine in question doesn't have a video card, so I have to do everything over the network. After the upgrade, the system came back up OK, and I could telnet to it, but my shell was an aout zsh, and the old rc scripts hadn't configured aout libs (the old ones didn't know about the two binary formats, so they just configure the default format -- ELF). Because of this, I could enter my login and password, but the shell wouldn't run. Since root cannot login over the network, I couldn't do that even though root's shell was /bin/sh. If you can login on the console as root after the upgrade, just do `aout-to-elf', and let it get on with it. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 19 7:48:37 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from IPGATE.sls.co.uk (IPGATE.sls.co.uk [194.201.82.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2575715002 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 07:48:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from woodruff_g@sls.co.uk) Received: from SLSNT2.sls.co.uk (SLSNT2.sls.co.uk [194.201.82.110]) by IPGATE.sls.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id PAA07230 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 15:46:59 +0100 Received: from Tim.SLS.CO.UK (194.201.82.209) by SLSNT2.sls.co.uk (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.81) with SMTP id ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 15:49:23 +0100 Message-ID: <014301beea52$0608a400$d152c9c2@SLS.CO.UK> From: "Graham Woodruff" To: Subject: ftp hangs during install Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 15:49:18 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all Trying to find a solution to a few (possibly related) problems 1.

I have a 486DX/25 170MB disk, 12MB w/ LinkSys EtherLan 16 and a P100, 6GB, 40MB w/ LinkSys EtherLan 16. On both machines I booted w/ the same boot disks and set each one up to use the same FTP server and even the same IP address (I did them at different times). The P100 completed flawlessly, everything downloaded and installed fine. The problem came when I tried installed over ftp on the 486 w/ the same NIC, FTP server, IP, etc... It turns out for some reason the 486 didn't like the FTP server I wanted to use for some odd reason. I simply changed to a different one and everything worked. Just an idea. As far as the NE2000 compatable NICs, I've used both LinkSys and SMC bottom line NICs ($15-$20 US) under FreeBSD and Linux. They both use the NE2000 drivers in each OS, and have performed thus far w/out a hitch.

An extension to this, should I bother changing a fairly large ccd volume into a vinum volume? Is there a benfit to using ccd over vinum? Also, is vinum slated to replace ccd?

Recently, I have setup multiple message boards from the webpages at, http://cmweb.virtualave.net/, which basically is a menu for the message boards that are hosted on EzBoard, Inc. I would like to know a couple of questions, if at all possible: 1) I already have a forum setup, but would like to know before that specific forum begins to have activity. Is it ok to have the "FreeBSD" forum on there? 2) Is their any possible way that I could have the FreeBSD forum setup on FreeBSD's pages? (If none already exist.) The link is: http://server2.ezboard.com:8080/fthecomputerdiscussiongroupfreebsd Instead, it can also be accessed by going to, http://cmweb.virtualave.net and clicking on, FreeBSD. If this went to the wrong person, could you please send this to the approiate person to review this message. Thank you for your time reading this message, and any comments or ideas regarding this would be greatly appreciated.

The others will work, I think, the http server and stuff by using the host name instead of the ip but then how will the be able to use the dns server since that uses an ip address instead of a host name?

I configure the kernel, partition the drive, label the partitions, and do a custom installation. Everything seems to go well until it comes to decompressing the ports packages, which causes a lot of disk activity, during which the machine just reboots, leaving me with an invalid installation (no kernel for one thing).

Please take a look at http://freebsd.simplenet.com/make-upgrade.html before you proceed. Specifically, you should not try to upgrade from 2.2.5 straight to 3.2-Stable since I've seen people run into trouble with a system older than 2.2.6. Also, the ONLY targe you should build is make upgrade. More details are on that web page. > Also, about the mergemaster util. Should this be run before or > after the above build process ?

IIRC this problem occurs because your vertion of mtree (and maybe make too) is too old. Upgrading to 2.2.8-Stable before doing the 3.2-Stable upgrade will solve this problem for you.

I have not had any luck with fbsdboot.exe ( it always complains about invalid kernel format [ I've tried fbsdboot -D c:\kernel\kernel < a fbsd3.2 kernel, and fbsdboot -D c:\kernel\boot.flp ] ), and I have been unable to find setup.exe. I also know a utility for netbooting computer's is available, but, I doubt it would work with a pcmcia ethetnet card ( although it is ne2000 compatible ), and I would really like to avoid having to set up a bootp server ( Although I would if I have to ), does anyone know if this would work? The Laptop is a Zenith Z-note 486/66 running dos 6.2. Dos is completly useless to me, so I would like to wipe the partition, and put FBSD in it's place. Any help would be appreciated.

I am now using Luigi's sound code (compiled into the kernel) and under 2.2.8 I was using the standard sound code. Here's the problem - I can use xmcd or cdcontrol to play sounds through my speakers just fine. However I can no longer hear WAV files (while either using splay or waveplay) and cannot hear mp3 using amp or x11amp. Splay and waveplay have different errors : splay - Failed to open sound device. waveplay - openDSP: Device busy Both x11amp and amp say that they can't open up the audio device. Here's the relevant lines out of the dmesg: pcm0 at 0x220 irq 10 drq 1 on isa ESS1868 (rev 11) If I recall correctly this is a Yamaha OPL card. Any ideas on what's happening?

As long as you're using simple concatenated drives, probably not. But with vinum you can change your config on the fly (like adding mirroring while the volume is running). It's basically more flexible. > An extension to this, should I bother changing a fairly large ccd > volume into a vinum volume? Not necessarily, if it's just concatenated. If it's mirrored, you'll see better performance out of Vinum, because it reads alternately from each half of the mirror. ccd always reads from the first half. > Is there a benfit to using ccd over vinum? Not really. I believe ccd will give you more space: Vinum uses 131.5 kB of each drive for configuration information. > Also, is vinum slated to replace ccd? I'd like to think so, but it's not my decision. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Wouldn't that fail (i.e. execute bash when it can't) if, say, bash existed and had the execute bit set, but a library it required on was trashed?

Reboot by pressing ctrl-alt-del on the console. When it's coming back up, you should get a boot prompt. This allows you to specify a kernel to boot from, and flags to give to it. Just type `-s', and the system should give you a single-user root prompt. Just type `passwd root' to set root's password. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 19 16:40:20 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D528514BD8 for ; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 16:39:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from lithium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.0.3] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.024 #3) id 11HYv6-000DvG-00; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 21:36:20 +0100 Received: (from ben) by lithium.scientia.demon.co.uk (Exim 3.024 #3) id 11HYv7-0003dq-00; Thu, 19 Aug 1999 21:36:21 +0100 Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 21:36:21 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Doug Cc: mcwong@ascend.com, questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Safe upgrade from 2.2.5 --> 3.2 ?

In general, the safest bet is to just upgrade to 2.2.8 first.

I can't seem to install apsfilter - first there's a checksum mismatch (I'm
using apsfilter-5.1.2 with 3.2-STABLE, ports collection updated August 13),
and then when I use "NO_CHECKSUM=yes" I get a "bzip2: Data integrity error
when decompressing" error.

I've been waiting for a while, but apsfilter hasn't show up in the
distfiles of the FreeBSD server, so I downloaded it from
http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas/download/apsfilter-5.1.2.tar.bz2, which is
the other place the ports collection page notes.  I've downloaded it
several times, with no change in results.

Suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Mmmmm....

Nice *home* machine.

The beauty of this is that the PowerEdges aren't that much more expensive
than a top-of-the-line Dimension XPS machine.

I'm noticing this little Windows-like device thingermajigger
thingy  :)  in the KDE 2.x screenshots.  Does anyone know
how this is going to work?  Especially the Change Setting
button, I would think that quite a bit of code would have to
be rewritten to port it to another OS...   Does anyone have
any info. on this they would like to share?

I just trie to run the "fixit" option from the Install disk.
When it asked for the second disk and I placed it, it said that
this was the "Alpha Distribution CD".

How can I run Fixit from CD?
.. or will I have to prepare floppies?

The archives have the same question, but did not find an answer.

Unfortunately, this was an oversight in making the CD-ROMs.  You won't
be able to mount the CD-ROM in fixit mode in 3.2.  It worked in 3.1,
and it should work again in 3.3, but 3.2 fixit is broken.

that'll be fine.

Be sure to use an 'A' record for mail (| mx | smtp | whatever) 
no 'CNAME' target allowed.

prolly thinking forward to in-bound & out-bound servers. ( but just a guess on

How can I make telnet daemon to drop connection if somebody already miss

Right now telnetd keeps asking login/password combo regardless multiple
failure.
I am running telnetd from inetd with -h options (telnetd -h)
Or is it related to login program?

Hello,

Just starting to work up the courage to install freeBSD, and I've got a few
questions that I couldn't find answers for on the freeBSD site...

- How do I download the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp files - are these on the
freeBSD ftp site somewhere?
- I've used fips on my single 10.G IDE drive (FAT32, LBA) to create a
partition for Win98 (was already installed) and a second partition for
unix. Do I need do anything to this 2nd partition e.g. format it, or
partition it further before I install? 
- Any known compatability problems with Crystal PnP sound chip (on the
motherboard) or 3D RagePro AGP video card or a Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1202?
- I'm using LBA, and my first partition (for Win98) is about 5.5G - will
unix have any problem booting on the 2nd partition?
- About how long would it take to download freeBSD over a 56k modem (in the
wee hours of the morning)?

TIA, Marion

You might want to check your resolv.conf, having an ip that you cant
access in there could be causing some things to load extremely slowly as
they have to wait for a query to 
timeout or something - running ppp obviously lets you access your ISP's
name server providing you have resolv.conf setup for that ip - you could
always run your own caching only name server for that and chuck the
boxes own ip into resolv.conf.
Mebe upgrading /etc to be inline with -CURRENT you overwrote a few name
resolution related files..

Thanks, Glenn, for your response.

> the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS and many other variables are set in

So they are.  Thanks for this info.  I'm far more familiar with GNU make, so
the concept of this sys.mk file is one that's new to me. :|  I finally found
where XFree86 does indeed set CFLAGS to -O2, but this took extracting the
sources and a little digging in the work/ directory.

> I don't know what to say about your observed sluggishness, but

Well, in this case, perhaps I need to ask a more general question, and stop
trying to analyze my problem:  Is anyone here using GNOME?  If so, are there
aspects that seem unacceptably slow?  For example, simple interaction with
GTK+ widgets--in the GNOME Control Center, for example--like clicking a
checkbox or selecting a radio button--does not seem to work properly.
Specifically, a 1/4 to 1/2 second delay (approximately) occurs before the
widget visually reflects my input.  :(  Additionally, moving windows around
the desktop seems slightly jumpy--more so than when I log in as root and run
BlackBox (sans GNOME).  This last judgement is, though, a subjective
analysis at best.  Any feedback from folks running GNOME would be
appreciated, although feedback from folks who have seen similar symptoms and
fixed them would be _most_ appreciated. ;)  I've seen GNOME running on
slower Linux machines without the reported sluggishness, so I know it's
nothing that GNOME itself is doing wrong. :|

KDE doesn't seem to have the widget-level problems, but it still doesn't
feel very snappy.  This is all on a Celeron 300A (running at 387MHz
currently) with 128 MB of RAM, primarily using WindowMaker as my window
manager.  I'd think that this ought to be plenty of computing resources for
these environments.

Since I was talking about GNOME, a couple more points: (1) is it common and
expected to get bunches of errors from GTK and GDK?  (2) are *.core files
pretty much to be expected (gnome-cc seems to like to dump core)?  and (3)
has anyone gotten Enlightenment to run reliably for longer than ten or so
minutes?!

 vtwm might not be such a bad idea. ;)  (Although I want to be able to
utilize the technologies being developed in environments like GNOME and
KDE.)

Right--I'm familiar with this, but what I'm really looking for is the
ability to do something like "cd /usr/ports; make
rebuild-and-reinstall-currently-installed-packages".  I'd like for this make
target to actually exist, but I know only of "reinstall" and "install," both
of which will visit each directory in the ports tree and do an install.  I'd
like for it to visit only the directories from which I have previously
installed ports.  A pipe dream?

Thanks again,
Ian

  Hi!

I have a 3.2 installed and nVIDIA RIVA TNT card w/ 8M onboard.

I've made those steps that jkh wrote in the freebsdzine for getting working
TNT under FreeBSD. Mesa3 demos works just fine. But I can't get Quake2 (and
Q3Test) working. Every time I get similar errors:

[cut here]

[root@trident:/usr/games/quake2]# ./quake2 +set vid_ref glx +set gl_driver libGL.so.1
Added packfile ./baseq2/pak0.pak (3307 files)
Added packfile ./baseq2/pak1.pak (279 files)
Added packfile ./baseq2/pak2.pak (2 files)
execing default.cfg
execing config.cfg
Console initialized.

------- sound initialization -------
/dev/dsp: Invalid argument
Could not open /dev/dsp
------- Loading ref_glx.so -------
ref_gl version: GL 0.01
./quake2: can't resolve symbol '__sF'
Unable to resolve symbol
ref_gl::R_Init() - could not load "libGL.so.1"

[cut here]

The same error (can't find __sF symbol) is in the Q3Test.

Any ideas?

Try

rm -- -z

The -- turns off the option field.

Use ftp! Yes, of course they are! In /pub/FreeBSD/3.2-RELEASE/floppies

Don't do anything with the free space. Don't even make some kind of
partition! Just see to that it is free space. FreeBSD will take care of
the rest.

Start using the man pages! It's a real good source for knowledge! From
the man page for rm:

The rm command uses getopt(3) to parse its arguments, which allows it to
accept the `--' option which will cause it to stop processing flag op-
tions at that point.  This will allow the removal of file names that be-
gin with a dash (`-'). For example:
rm -- -filename
			  
So in your case `rm -- -z` would do the trick

Hello list

A couple of newbie questions:

[FreeBSD 3.2]

The machine in question is on a permanent connection. I do not want it
to go down if at all possible. I am enabling certain services one by
one.

In order to re-read inetd.conf, is it appropriate to kill -1 (inetd
process number)? Will it cause a reboot?

Are there any security issues in enabling talkd?

Thanks

To restart inetd do a

kill -HUP (inetd processnumber)

This will cause inetd to restart and re-read its configurationfile. And no,
it won't reboot your computer - after all .. this isn't Windows 95 ;-).

This is a bug in natd(8).  Remove the comments (`#ftp', etc.)
at the end of your redirect_port lines and you should be OK.
This will be fixed soon.

If you want to install 3.2-RELEASE, try to look at
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/3.2-RELEASE/floppies

No, nothing special. You have not to create partition for FreeBSD from
DOS. Just keep enough free unused space. When you boot from floppy,
FreeBSD will create partitions and install boot manager.

3.2-RELEASE distribution is about 200M (with sources and X).
So it is highly recommended to choose apropriate mirror ;-)

Basicly, there is a ipfirewall(4), divert(4) sockets interface and the
libalias(3) library.

Natd(8) implements generic IP aliasing, which could be used with any
of the network interfaces installed (Ethernet, SLIP, PPP, TUN, etc).
Your kernel should be compiled with IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT options.
You should then configure your ipfw(8) to redirect the traffic through
divert(4) socket to a natd(8).

User-level ppp(8) has this functionality natively.  It uses libalias(3)
to implement IP aliasing internally, without need to run natd(8) and
ipfirewall(4).

So, if you will run user-level ppp(8) (highly recommended), use its
native IP aliasing feature.  In any other case, use natd(8).

Hi All

I've recently run out of space on my freebsd slice.
The solution I've thought of is to create a new slice for
/usr/local (on e), I also have a seperate slice on another 
disk drive that contains my /home directory and some swap.
So I need to copy /usr/local across, preserving all 
symbolic links, permissions etc. 
Would 'tar cf - /usr/local/* | tar xf - /mnt' work?

This is of course assuming all new ports install in 
/usr/local (I've noticed a few install things in /usr/X11R6)
I've also thought of creating a new filesystem on another
disk for /usr/ports.

I have another more important question. I use both Linux
and Freebsd (dualbooted). I wish to have the same home
directorys on both. This means I either have to use
ext2fs or ufs filesystems for the home partition. 

I have mounted ext2fs from freebsd but I haven't had much
luck with mounting a ufs filesystem from linux. Apparantly
the FreeBSD slice is meant to look like an extended partition
to linux. However this doesn't happen. I suspect that it
has something to do with the mark number of the slice. According to
linux's fdisk 'a5' is the FreeBSD mark but my
freebsd slice is marked with 'b5'.

So in summary, what are the merits of sharing a filesystem
between these two operating systems. Is ext2fs better 
supported under freebsd than ufs is under linux?

Thanks for your time,

Regards

 Yes. Sending signal 1 (aka HUP) to daemon will usually cause it to reread
config files and will not cause a reboot ;-)

 General rule: you should only run services, that you realy need.
 If this machine is your server, than I think it is better to disable it.

And it is also a good idea to enable inetd logging (inetd -l).

Just my two cents... I completely trashed a UFS partition from Linux once.
That was on a stock 2.0.35 kernel.  I dunno what caused it, but I never
tried it again.  I've heard from other people that UFS support under Linux
isn't too hot...

   I tried both, linux and FreeBSD versions of this library. With Linux
version I get rnadom screen blinking (this is not the lost sync. of display,
but random lines and rectangles drawing on the X, the mouse cursor drawn
correctly when I'm pressing ~ and typing-in "quit") on Q3Test and

The hardware is: P-II 400, 384M RAM, Asus P2B-S w/Adaptec7890 and AsusV3400TNT both on 9 IRQ (might it be the problem?), 2xIBM DDRS-34560.

Also, I added these lines in the /etc/make.conf to reach maximum
optimization when compiling kernel and other stuff:
CFLAGS= -fexpensive-optimization -fomit-frame-pionter -O2 -pipe
COPTFLAGS= -fexpensive-optimization -fomit-frame-pionter -O2 -pipe

   Done.

What happens if you do ``~p'' instead of ``~.'' ?

Ok,

Let me get this correct then. The steps for me should then be:

1) get 2.2.8 src for my 2.2.5 system
     make world
     reboot

     Are there any significant changes such as /etc/* stuff
     in 2.2.8 that requires mergemaster when doing this
     round of upgrade ?

2) On 2.2.8, get 3.2 src and follow the instruction on the
     web.
     mergemaster
     make upgrade
     reboot

Is that correct ? I will properly document all the steps
after my upgrade  and should it be successful and send
it to the list for others.

Regards,
MCW

Ah, sorry. I thought the differences between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6 wouldn't be
much compared to the differences between 2.2.6 and 3.2. Evidently they are
too much :-)

The solution is very simple.
Did you know that Quake2 is Linux binary??
Does that ring you a bell?

goto www.nvidia.com and get linux driver from the site and use linux
version of libGL.so.1

That should do it.

I used LInux version of libGL (from nvidia.com) and just ran quake3.
Works perfectly fine.. 
I am running 4.0 current with graphics blaster(riva TNT 16M sdram)
as long ias it's TNT chipset, it should work.

Anyone:

Does "gcc" support COFF (can produce - common object file format) binaries?

I could only see COFF mentioned in reference to "gdb"

If so what are the command line options?

Thanks

Unfortunately, this was an oversight in making the CD-ROMs.  You won't
be able to mount the CD-ROM in fixit mode in 3.2.  It worked in 3.1,
and it should work again in 3.3, but 3.2 fixit is broken.

This is answered in the Unix FAQ, posted regularly to comp.answers. I
suggest you read it, it contains useful information. Anyway, just do `rm
./-z' or `rm -- -z' so that rm doesn't treat `-z' as a flag.  This works
for many other things. The first form is probably more portable since it

This probably means either the remote server couldn't find
unix.taipingcarpets.com in the DNS, or it couldn't find the reverse
lookup record for your server's IP address. Either way, you need to fix
your DNS.

Add more memory. Installs don't generally work with 8M, though the
system will run just fine. While a few people have reported
success with 8M, there've been far more failure reports....

No clue on the other problems. You might want to check to see if
there are any interesting messages in the syslog.

Hi,

I´ve upgrade last night my FreeBSD-2.2.2 to FreeBSD-2.2.8 and
finally to
FreeBSD-3.2 via the  binary method.
Now there is a strange behaviour of the  "w" and "last" commands.
For example the output of last looks like:
vx3.tel^z(^}7ttyp ppp-1-5. 4                Sat Jul 23 16:58
still logged in
ppp-1-5.cvx3.tel ftp      A'^}7ftp80296     Thu Jan  1 01:00

still logged in
ttyp3            a.deI ^}7                  Fri Aug 20 11:30

Any hints?

Thanks
Frank

read the following file:
/usr/src/tools/3.0-upgrade/README

basically the format of the utmp element in the wtmp file changed in 3.0+
there's a c program there that will convert your old ones
(or you could just nuke them :)

Regards,
Cillian

The Problem ist not the format of the old (from 2.2.2) entries of the wtmp
and utmp. The new ones (from 3.2) are corrupt!!

Regards,

Frank

P.S I´ve also set the size of wtmp and utmp to zero but without success

Can someone tell me what this error means?  I think I have an idea but would
like the opinion of someone a bit more knowledgeable than I.

wd3: reverting to PIO mode reading fsbn 0 (status 51 error
84)

Here is, what I believe to be, the relevant information from dmesg:
======

======

Also, I just noticed that wd0 is listed as 1888 MB in size.  It's actual a
6400MB drive, and is being used as such by vinum, should I worry about this
at all?  (it used to be reported properly).

thanks,
Chris

Hmm..that must mean that the entries created by your new 3.2 binaries
must be corrupting the file (even if it was nuked and had to be re-created)

Or perhaps, you still have some 2.x stuff floating around that is
the cause ?

in a similar situation to this I found out ssh was the culprit..a quick
recompile of it did the trick

Hope this helps,

I upgraded a 2.2.8 system to 3.2 and when trying to rebuild my

I am getting an error message from POP3 clients when emial is sent. Email is
received OK, but I cannont send.

I am running Sendmail on FreeBSD 3.2. Sendmail is set up, and POP3 is
enabled. My users have valid Unix usernames and passwords. My server name is
gateway.townandcountry.org and my domain name is townandcountry.org.

My users can connect and receive email. When email is sent, they get an
error message on the POP3 client something like this:

"The message could not be send because the server rejected the sender's
email address. The sender's email address was ....Server Response "501
gateway.townandcountry.org ... sender domain must exist"

On the server console, an error message shows up "Sendmail ...
ruleset=check_mail ...Reject=501 gateway.townandcountry.org sender domain
must exist."

I double-checked my sendmail.cf file. I have set up a D and a DM record. DNS
is running and appears to be working OK.

What am I missing? any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

hello,
I was wondering if anyone had actually done an "upgrade" (using
sysinstall)
from 2.2.x to 3.2.
does it work.. do you have to recompile everything?  (a.out stuff) I
know it is supposed to keep that stuff around but I thought I would ask
since it is an in use production server that I am going to try this
on...(risky)..
all I really have running is a web server hylafax, and samba...
any input would be appreciated...
thanks in advance
Robert
ps please email direct as I am not currently subscribed to the list. ta

Hello

I downloaded kernel.flp and mfsroot.flp from
ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/4.0-19990816-CURRENT/floppies/
Kernel.flp boots, and wants mfsroot.flp, but as soon as this boots 
(before initialising drivers) it says

"/mfsroot" not found". 

Some time later, the kernel panics when it wants to mount /mfsroot. 
So where's that /mfsroot???

Cheers
Jonathan

Hello
Im running FreeBSD3.2 with an ESS 1869 soundcard.  AFAIK, I have
to use the OSS sounddrivers in order to get sound capabilities. 
Although when I play Quake2, I am unable to get sound.  I
emailed OSS about this, and they told me the problem was the
FreeBSD OSS sounddrivers do not support mmap.  So, what I would
like to know is: is there any way at all I can get sound to work
in Q2 without going to the extreme of buying a new sound
card....

Thanks

I've been able to reproduce your problem on 3.2R+PAO3, and will
furnish a patch from the BSD-USB mailing list.  Also, if you
start having trouble with the USB mouse, try changing the order
of the usb _devices_ in the kernel config file; something
happened recently, I think, to change the probe order relative to
that in LINT, and it causes the mouse to be found on the probe to
ugen0 (but I am not sure of the technical details).  You need to
create /dev/{ums0,usb0}, if you have not done so.

Patch relative to /usr/src/sys:

	That's what my web page does. :) Of course, if you have any suggestions

I'm looking for some FreeBSD network tuning advice.  I recently got a cable
modem, and found all kinds of sites about how to tweak Windblowz to get
maximum throughput out of my new network.  Nothing much out there for
FreeBSD, though, that I've found.  I'm looking for the equivalent of
Soalris's 'ndd', in particular.  Any advice on good numbers to start with
for a cable modem connection would be appreciated, too.

Thanks!

Greetings!     

It has come to my recent attention that whenever FreeBSD is finishing 
loading all of it's devices and what not, the CPU and floppy disk's 
lights halt, as in they flash up and stay on.

I don't recall doing anything recently at all that would trigger such an  
event, and am ponders the 'fix' for it so to speak.  It's kinda weird to  
look at the box and just see the lights on, as I like to depend on them   
for movement, call me a perfectionist.  Anyhow, if any of you might have a
clue as to what the problem maybe, I'd really appreciate any feedback!

Again thanks (:

Question from Fredrik Carlen 

  Hello! I have a really annoying problem, and I can't seem to be able to
find an answer to it on the Net. I recently "bought" and installed FreeBSD
3.2-RELEASE. I have been using it for a couple of weeks, and it's a very
pleasant experience, except for the fact that *every* *single* *day* the system
*freezes*. Hangs. I've been told not to reinstall, so, still painfully
ignorant in the field of UNIX, I am humbly asking for more knowledgeable help.

  This is what happens:
1.I log in on my usual, every-day account.
2.I start X up.
3.I start doing the normal stuff, nothing fancy (e.g. reading mail, writing
notes).
4.The system freezes. Every input device stops working. The mouse cursor
disappering is the first indication. The system is *not* reading from the hard
drive, at least as far as I can see and hear. No matter how long I wait, the
system won't respond. It's a complete denial-of-service! The only option
left is to reboot the hard way. Which doesn't exactly make things better!!!

  It happens *frequently* in the following circumstances:
A. When I try to change something in "preferences" or "options", in
any program (epecially Netcape). Sometimes it works, sometimes the system
freezes.
B.When I am trying to do something in two programs simultaneously,
e.g. surfing and writing small notes. (By goood I hope it doesn't happen
right now, please, please, my dear OS, just let me finish this freakin' mail!)
C. Sometimes without any action from my part whatsoever.

And: Once it happened when I disconnected my PPP connection when Mozilla was
still downloading a webpage. My experience is that if I have been using X for
an hour or so, it *will* freeze.

This is my system, in a nutshell:
Intel Pentium, 166 MHz.
Motherboard:PA-2007 with VIA VP2/97 chipset
Video card: S3 trio64V+
Sound card: Soundblaster compatible (ESS ES1868)
HD: 4 gigs
RAM: 32 megs
+I've installed the old object format, aout, to be able to use Netscape.

Both my everyday user account and my root account is left as-is, no fancy stuff
there. 

This is the output of "$ uname -a":

FreeBSD entityone.leonissystems.org 3.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE #0: Tue
May 18 04:05:08 GMT 1999 jkh@cathair:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  i386   

(leonissystems.org is my fake domain...go ahead, laugh if you want to...)

I am sorry if I have missed some section of the FAQ, or "the Complete
FreeBSD handbook" I really should have checked, but I am almost *certain*
there's nothing there that relates to my problem. I haven't got a clue as what
to do, except maybe reinstalling and *not* choosing stuff from compat22...(the
aout) Apart from this hassle, I *really* like FreeBSD, and since I am soon
working as a security administrator, I can't have this sort of thing happening
when I am promoting FreeBSD as the UNIX of choice for PC:s, right? If you
could help me, I owe you a big one.
Thank you for your time.

I have some trouble about sendmail in FreeBSD. It's only receive mail but
not distingish about what for different domain.
I have try to find how it can handle many donamin ,But I see that I can
add in /etc/sendmail.cw

But this time my problem is not that... This time my problem is In my
freebsd system,I have  1 account name that xx1 but My freebsd have 2
domains one is mydom1.test.com and another is mydom2.test.com but it point
to the same IP:)

If I send email to xx1@mydom1.test.com ,the user in local host will
receive it, but If I send email to xx1@mydom2.test.com ,the local user
will receive too... The local user is the same is xx1.

Can I set sendmail to determind what I would like to send to and save in
difference place...

Because If I use pop mail to mydom1.test.com ,It will get only mail that
send to xx1@mydom1.test.com but not include xx1@mydom2.test.com

How I can solve it? Do you have any idea? 
                                               Sincerly Yours

I had a P166 on a superMicro P5STE motherboard that also froze after
extended X use. It would also hang on Win 95 if I played Freecell or
Solataire. It was really slow, so I finally ended up replacing
motherboard, cpu, memory, and video card. The system on the HD works
perfectly with a Celeron 433. The hang was obviously hardware related
and a new system worked. If you have parts, you might try swapping
some of the parts. I would start with the video card. Can you do a
buildworld. That is a good test for the rest of the system. If you get
a signal error, that is a good clue it is memory.

	Did you start over with the 3.2 GENERIC, or are you trying to
build your old kernel config file? Some of the options have changed, so
it's better to start with GENERIC again. Also, take a look at
http://freebsd.simplenet.com/make-upgrade.html to see if you might have
missed any steps. 

Good luck,

Doug

I've looked all over the mailing list for this one.  I have a 10MB dos
partition and a FreeBSD 3.1 partition.  After the install is complete I get
this upon bootup:

F1 DOS			
F2 FreeBSD
F5 Drive 0

Both F1 & F2 "beep" and don't actually do anything.  Hitting F5 brings me to:

F1 DOS			
F2 FreeBSD

And now, things work normal.  F1 boots DOS, F2 boots FreeBSD.  I'd be happy
with this, except for the first menu is defaulted to what I selected in my
second menu, so it will never boot without user input off the first menu.

I've tried fdisk /mbr in dos, then reboot with the FreeBSD floppies and (W)
write the partition table, and selecting to install the Boot Manager, no luck.
I've also tried reinstalling, and the problem is still there.

Thanks for any input on this one,

Geoff

Hi!

I am just installed the FreeBSD3.2 on my PC,
it sometimes can work, but sometimes will
found "panic : page fault" and auto reboot,

times).

Hi, AFAIR it is possible on x86 systems (or atleast windows and dos :) ) to
have 4 serial ports, which share 2 IRQs?? (I have 2 onboard serieal ports
and an xtra I/O card.
How is this done on BSD? And which restrictions would I have, in DOS i
remember, that it wasnt a good idea to put a mouse and a modem on 2 serial
ports, which share IRQ, maybe this problem is solved on newer computers.

So that:
COM1    IRQ4
COM2    IRQ3
COM3    IRQ4
COM4    IRQ3

This doesnt seem possible with the SIO driver (the man says so). But I hope
that it is possible? And where should I look?

I tried it with the following parameters:
options         "COM_MULTIPORT"
device          sio0    at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty
device          sio1    at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty
device          sio2    at isa? port "IO_COM3" tty
device          sio3    at isa? port "IO_COM4" tty

This is the result:
DMESG:
sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff on isa
sio0: type 16550A
sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff on isa
sio1: type 16550A
sio2 at 0x3e8-0x3ef on isa
sio2: type 16450

Your hardware may be faulty.  I say so because I met such thing once
before.  After moving to another machine, everything is fine. 

If you can make a core dump, it can help to find the reason.

But this PC can working fine with Linux,

If you haven't rebuilt X, I think that will also be using the old
format. (xterm, or some part of X, logs an entry in utmp.)

This could be because of how you are sharing interrupts. At some point
in my distant past, you could share interrupts but they had to be on
the same card. So the add on card would be com2 and com4, which could
share an interrupt and com1 and com3 on the PC. You will have problems
at some line speed above 9.6kb because you don't have a 16550A on your
addon ports, which can cause overflows because the 450 doesn't have
the FIFO.

My Digital laptop does the same thing ever since I installed 3.2 over
2.2.8.  I kind of like it actually - now it doesn't default to the 
previously selected o/s after the timeout.

You need the virtusertable feature. This is enabled by default in
FreeBSD's sendmail. See http://www.sendmail.org on how to configure it.

I recently installed. from the ports section of my 3.2 install MySQL-1.9,
and bought the book tool

When I read where the book says tat certain directories and files ought to
be, and then 'locate' them on my FreeBSD box, they are in different
places, and my install never did creat eht 'data' director structure that
MySQL says ought to be there.

Is there an explanation for this, or is my install eunique?

Since you folks helped me out so much last time, I figured I ask another
question or two...

When I used to run AIX, I could adjust the logical volume (partition)
sizes and file system sizes on the fly. This let me add a drive and
migrate file systems to it with great ease. Now, I'm trying to do
something similar with freeBSD 2.2.5.

The situation is this; we have run out of room in our /usr partition,
and have no free drive space available. Management went out and bought a
27 gig SCSI drive that is going to be installed soon. First of all, is
this 27 gig drive going to work with freeBSD 2.2.5, and secondly how can
I move or expand my /usr partition onto this new behemoth? I'm just not
familiar enough with sysinstall to know if that's the place to do it or
not...

Thanks again,

Jason Blue

I believe the port puts things other than where the MySQL dist will put
things. IE the port will put the databases in /var/db/mysql while the
dist. of MySQL will put them in /usr/local/var. But then again, maybe I
am way off base. :) It's been awhile since I last installed MySQL...

Hi,

    I just want to know if there are plans for having a driver for the
following RAID card, "Dual Channel Wide Ultra SCSI RAID ( IBM ServeRAID II
on planar)", its a built-in Card on a IBM Netfinity 5500 Server, and I am
going to receive one of this servers in two months, its there any chance to
make it work with FreeBSD, without having to install another SCSI Card in
the system???.

Thanks in Advance

Ales

Hi---

I'm fairly new to FreeBSD, coming from a mostly NetBSD background.
One thing NetBSD does that I like is that the package system
(ports in FreeBSD parlance) installs into a seperate path
(/usr/pkg) rather than into /usr/local/.  (Please no flames.  I
thought the NetBSD approach was stupid at first and just made
/usr/pkg a symlink to /usr/local.  After some experience I decided
the other way was better --- having stuff I've installed by hand
segregated from stuff installed by the package system has IMHO its
merits.  YMMV.)

At any rate, I'm wondering whether the location where FreeBSD
installs ports can be set by some environment variable or other
straightforward mechanism?

Thanks in advance,

---Alex

Depends on a great many factors.  RAM, CPU, and HD chief among them.  my
guess is that if you've got a fast HD, or have things split up between
multiple SCSI HD, maybe between IDE HD on different cables, that that
might be reasonable.  I've got a Celeron-500 w/128MB RAM and a single, 10G
IDE drive that does a make world in just about an hour.  Then again, I've
got an older, Dual-Pentium Pro box with 64MB of ram and a single 2GB HD
that takes about 5-6 hours.

Hi,

I would like to install freebsd on a 486 (to serve as a backup server for my
home network) - this machine at one point ran earlier versions of freebsd
(1.1 era), but has since run windows.  The problem is that it has an
Ultrastor 34f SCSI controller, which I saw on the supported list as "not
*yet* supported in the new system" - I wanted to check to see if there was
any timeframe for this support, or whether I should just use the old
version... (If I can still find the CD).

Thanks!

easy fix.
you have to run mysql_install_db
that will create all the nessasary dirs and files.

Hope this helps

Sure. The Am386 box I'm typing this on has four serial ports on a
single IRQ using an AST Fourport clone. In fact, your question
reminds me of a Cyclades eight-port card that I need to ask back
from somebody else. You just need the right *hardware*.

> (I have 2 onboard serieal ports and an xtra I/O card.

Nope. I'm not aware of onboard serial ports being able to share
IRQs, although this should be the most simple case. Simple I/O
cards usually can't share IRQs between their ports either. Sharing
over the ISA bus is completely out. You need specially designed
cards, such as AST Fourports and clones, Vision Systems' 4Com or
similar, or cards with ports entirely unlike the 8250-derived
COM-type ones such as the Cyclades, Stallion, and Rocketport ones.

> How is this done on BSD?

See sio(4) and the various drivers for the non-COM-type special
multi-port cards. I haven't actually used any multi-port cards
under BSD yet, but I'm going to eventually, and the information
seems to be there.

Unfortunately these boxes have to go on-site, and we don't want calls about
the gateway not working after a power-falure.  Someone mensioned man
boot0cfg, but this I haven't found anywhere.

I'm getting.  I've tried ipah, udp and icmp protocols in the
/etc/ipsec/pipsecd.conf file with the same results.  It works fine on my
3.2 box.  Is there some reason it should fail on a 2.2.8 box?

How can I get pkg_add to install a package with all of its dependencies
over the net? (From the manpage and other documentation it sounds like
this is automatic.)

I tried...

pkg_add 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-stable/All/rxvt-2.6.0.tgz

And this installed it, but none of the dependencies were downloaded and
installed either.

Is pkg_add like Debian's apt-get?

Also, where can I download the menuing package handler? (/stand/sysinstall
doesn't give enough info.)

My goal is to get X downloaded and installed. (I have done this numerous
times with Debian -- now I am trying FreeBSD.)

Hi

A quick question:

My printing system consists of lpd and apsfilter.
I tried to cancel a print job with lprm. The job was dequed
but the printer continued printing. Assuming the job was 
still in the printer's buffer, I turned the printer off.
However when I turned the printer back on it was still 
printing. 

To rule out lpd I killed the lpd daemon, the printer was
still printing. I then suspected the parallel port driver.
I tried '> /dev/lpt0' I got a 'device busy' error.
As a last resort I was fiddling with lptcontrol which
only returns 'open: device busy' messages. 

So the printer is still printing and I have no idea how to
stop it short of letting it finish (not an option) or 
rebooting the machine.

So what gives?

Thanks for your time

Regards,

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG


I installed a new video card in a 3.2 stable machine today, running
XFree86-3.3.3. To get it running I needed to build a new server (Mach64).
There didn't seem to be a straightforward way to build just the new server,
so I decided to make clean/make to rebuild the entire port. This went
without a hitch, and I now have the server I need.

The problem arose when I started to install the port without first
deinstalling the previous version. Make install complained and instructed
me to make deinstall, then make reinstall. A subsequent make deinstall
complained about numerous missing files, an invalid packing list, and
proceeded to delete part of the previous install. The following make
reinstall seemed to work, but didn't install any fonts under
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts.

Since then I've done all combinations of make deinstall/make install/make
reinstall that make sense with the same results.

I'm now thinking that I cvsupped the port collection since my X install,
and perhaps that has something to do with it. Still, I would think the
packing list for the installed port would be accurate.

I've now re cvsupped the ports, and am remaking XFree86-3.3.4. I'm hoping a
clean build of this will get me up and running again.

Anyone have a pointer as to what went wrong here?

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================

Last update 11 July 1999

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  If
you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender
thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your
message:

- You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate.
- You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read.
- You asked more than one unrelated question in one message.
- You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone.
- You sent out the same message more than once.
- You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.

If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you
will get more than one copy of this message from different people.
Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

I: Introduction
===============

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the
questions (the "hackers").

       Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking
       into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
       activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out
       yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
       security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==============================================

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG.  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!

  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:

      unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey 

  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS               User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where
      keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For
      example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
      grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to
      grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from
      the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
      which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
      FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
      which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're
      not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
      messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
      clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things
out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers?
===================================================

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers.  In addition, the
FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to
FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment.  In
some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask.  The
following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however:

     If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this
     isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ).  There's a list of these
     questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on
     your own system (once you've installed it) at
     /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html.  Check there, and if you don't find
     an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions.  Examples might be questions
     about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility.

     If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure,
     or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to
     FreeBSD-questions.

     If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that
     it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code
     where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.  You should also enter a problem
     report with the send-pr utility.

     If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can
     make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.

     If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as
     implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send
     the message to FreeBSD-hackers.

     If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own
     relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies.

There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for
example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet
Service Providers) who run FreeBSD.  If you happen to be an ISP, this
doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to
FreeBSD-isp.  The criteria above still apply, and it's in your
interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good
results that way.

IV:  How to submit a question
=============================

When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the
following points:

  1.  Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question.
      They do it of their own free will.  You can influence this free
      will positively by submitting a well-formulated question
      supplying as much relevant information as possible.  You can
      influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete,
      illegible, or rude question.  It's perfectly possible to send a
      message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you
      follow these rules.  It's much more possible to not get an
      answer if you don't.  In the rest of this document, we'll look
      at how to get the most out of your question to
      FreeBSD-questions.

  2.  Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message:
      they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests
      them.  Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject.
      ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough.  If you provide
      no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it.  If your
      subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may
      not read it.

  3.  Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T
      SHOUT!!!!!.  We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak
      English as their first language, and we try to make allowances
      for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message
      written full of typos or without any line breaks.  A lot of
      badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly
      configured mailers.  The following mailers are known to send out
      badly formatted messages without you finding out about them:

      Eudora
      exmh
      Microsoft Exchange
      Microsoft Internet Mail
      Microsoft Outlook
      Netscape

      As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent
      offenders.  If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer.  If you must
      use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set
      up correctly.  Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers
      which don't get on very well with MIME.

      For further information on this subject, check out
      http://www.lemis.com/email.html.

  4.  Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly.  This may
      seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but
      many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred
      messages a day.  They frequently sort the incoming messages by
      subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the
      first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to
      look.

  5.  Don't include unrelated questions in the same message.  Firstly,
      a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's
      more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the
      questions to read the message.

  6.  Specify as much information as possible.  This is a difficult
      area, and we need to expand on what information you need to
      submit, but here's a start:

         If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error
         messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No
         route to host'''.

         If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say
         (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free
         vnode isn't'''.

         If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us
         what hardware you have.  In particular, it's important to
         know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in
         your machine.

         If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the
         configuration.  Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of
         authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic
         IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file?

  7.  If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see
      your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend
      the message.  Wait at least 24 hours.  The FreeBSD mailer
      offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the
      world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to
      get through.  And once it gets through, the one person who might
      know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part
      of the world.

  8.  If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there
      could be other reasons.  For example, the problem is so
      complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does
      know the answer was offline.  If you don't get an answer after,
      say, a week, it might help to re-send the message.  If you don't
      get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably
      not going to get one from this forum.  Resending the same
      message again and again will only make you unpopular.

To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following
question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-).  You choose which of
these two questions you would be more prepared to answer:


Message 1:
Subject: (none)

I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message 2:
Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD

I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm
having a lot of difficulty installing it.  I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16
MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball
disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive.  The installation works just
fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing
Operating System".

----------------------------------------------------------------------


V: How to 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.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition




                         Last revision: 2 August 1999

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   The  result  is  that  most  leading  edge
computer  books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut  Creek,  is  no  exception.   In-
evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

The  following  is  a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.  They
relate to the third edition, formatted  on  17  May  1999.   You'll  find  this
information  on  page  iv  (the  page  before  the  beginning  of  the Table of
Contents).  See the end of this document for instructions on how  to  find  the
errata for an older version.

You can get the current document in four forms:

o A     PostScript     version,     suitable     for     printing    out,    at
  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third  edition
  to  find  out  how  to print out PostScript.  If at all possible, please take
  this document: it's closest to the original text.

  Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible  to
  reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When
  viewed with more or less,  this  version  will  show  some  highlighting  and
  underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

o An  ASCII-only  version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This
  version is posted every week to the  FreeBSD-questions  mailing  list.   Only
  take  this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure
  that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html.

All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing  source  text  of  the
book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well.  If you find a

The instructions on page ii (opposite the title  page)  tell  you  to  look  at
ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2  for  the  errata  list.   That's wrong.
Look at this list.

Pages 190 and 191
_________________

The description is not very clear about which text appears  when  booting  from
floppy  for  initial  install,  and  which  appears when booting normally.  The
procedure is very similar, but there are some differences.  Add  the  following
text after the heading Boot messages:

You'll  boot  your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot
from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system.  Later, after the  system
is  installed,  you'll boot from hard disk.  The procedure is almost identical,
so we'll look at both versions in the following examples.

Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with:

If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see:

Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter:

When you insert the MFS root floppy and press  Enter,  you  see  more  twirling
batons, then the UserConfig screen appears.

UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration
____________________________________________

After  the  kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are
installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c  option  to  the
boot loader:

The  bottom  two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating
that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file

                     Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition


nfs_client_enable="YES"       # This host is an NFS client (or NO).
nfs_server_enable="YES"       # This host is an NFS server (or NO).


Page 265
________

The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver.   The
scsi  program  is  no  longer  available  in  FreeBSD  3.x.   Instead,  use the
camcontrol program.  Replace the text with:.

Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by  allocating  an
alternate sector for the data.  IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI
drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation.   Usually  it
is  turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not.  When installing a
new disk, you should check that the parameters  ARRE  (Auto  Read  Reallocation
Enable)  and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on.  For example,
to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter:

# camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3
# scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3

This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one  specified  in
the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data:

AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld):  0
ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld):  1
TB (Transfer Block):  0
RC (Read Continuous):  0
EER (Enable Early Recovery):  0
PER (Post Error):  0
DTE (Disable Transfer on Error):  0
DCR (Disable Correction):  0
Read Retry Count:  16
Correction Span:  41
Head Offset Count:  0
Data Strobe Offset Count:  0
Write Retry Count:  16
Recovery Time Limit:  0

The  values  for  AWRE  and  ARRE should both be 1.  If they aren't, as in this
case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit.  The
camcontrol  program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option.


                                                                         Page 3

________

The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0.  This  is  the  old
name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should
be da0.

Thanks  to  Francisco  Reyes    for  pointing  out  this
problem.

Page 362
________

Replace the text at the top of the page with:

Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel:

# cd ../../compile/FREEBIE
# make depend
# make

   The  make  depend  is needed even if the directory has just been created:
   apart from creating dependency information, it also  creates  some  files
   needed for the build.
Thanks to Mark Ovens  for drawing this to my attention,
and   to   Francisco   Reyes      and   Bill    Fumerola
  for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the
third edition.

Page 409
________

The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end  of  the
PPP  links  in  some  places.  It should always be the ``far'' end of the link.
Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following  it,  with  this
text:

defaultrouter="139.130.136.129"    # Set to default gateway (or NO).
static_routes=""              # Set to static route list (or leave empty).
gateway_enable="YES"               # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway.

This  is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface.
In fact, for PPP you don't  need  to  specify  the  default  address:  the  PPP
packages will set it for you when the link comes up.  This makes it possible to

Page 4






                     Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition


set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP  addresses,  where  you
don't know the address at this point.  We'll see how PPP does this on page 446.

In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the  second
example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with:


defaultrouter="139.130.237.65"          # Set to default gateway (or NO).


Thanks to Andreas Longwitz  for pointing out this error.

Getting errata for older editions of the book
_____________________________________________

There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''.
The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date,  which  you'll
find  at  the  bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of
Contents) in all versions of the book.

1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and  was  formatted
  on 24 February 1996.  No errata list exists for this book.

2. For  the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er-
  rata-1.   This   same   file   is   also   available   via   the   web   link
  http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list.

3. The  list  for  the  second  edition (16 December 1997) is available in four
  forms:

  o A    PostScript    version,    suitable    for     printing     out,     at
    ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps.  See  page  222  of  the  second
    edition to find out how to print  out  PostScript.   If  at  all  possible,
    please take this document: it's closest to the original text.

    Be  careful  selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible
    to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

  o An enhanced ASCII  version  at  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt.
    When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and
    underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

  o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This
    version  is  posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list.  Only

                                                                         Page 5






Getting errata for older editions of the book


    take this version if you have real problems with  PostScript:  I  can't  be
    sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

  o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html.

4. The  revised  second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999.  As the name
  suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three  chapters  are
  different:

  o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date.

  o Appendix  D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two
    appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time)
    and  ``FreeBSD  3.0'',  which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x
    and FreeBSD 3.x.

  There is no separate errata list for this book.  Refer to the second  edition
  errata list.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition




                          Last revision: 21 June 1999

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   The  result  is  that  most  leading  edge
computer  books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut  Creek,  is  no  exception.   In-
evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

The  following  is  a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.  They
relate to the 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
book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well.  If you find a

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:

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.

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

Page 11: Reading the handbook
_____________________________

The  CD-ROM  now includes Netscape.  Replace the last paragraph on the page and
the example on the following page with:

If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the  handbook.
If you don't have X running yet, use lynx.  Both of these programs are included
on the CD-ROM.  To install them, enter:

# pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz
or
# pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz

The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change  after  this  book  has
been  printed.   Use  ls  to  list the names if you can't find these particular
versions.

Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape:  since  it  is  text-
only,  it  is  not  capable  of  displaying  the  large  majority  of web pages
correctly.  It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however.

Thanks to Stuart Henderson  and  for drawing this to my attention.

Page 12: Printing the handbook
______________________________

The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete.  Replace the section
starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text:

Alternatively,  you  can  print  out  the  handbook.   You  need  to  have  the
documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system.  You can  find  them
on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name.  To install them, first
mount your CD-ROM (see page 175).  Then enter:

$ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook
$ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook            you may need to be root for this operation
$ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook

You have a choice of formats for the output:

o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII  output,  suitable  for  reading  on  a
  character-mode terminal.

Page 4






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser.

o latex  will  give  you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX
  and LATEX.

o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing.

o roff will give you output in troff source.  You can process this output  with
  nroff  or  troff,  but  it's  currently not very polished.  LATEX output is a
  better choice if you want to process it further.

Once you have decided your format,  use  make  to  create  the  document.   For
example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter:

$ make FORMATS=ps

This  creates  a  file  handbook.ps  which  you  can then print to a PostScript
printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222).

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.

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 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.

_______

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.

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:

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

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 104
________

The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the
wrong directory (/usr).  It should be /usr/X11R6.  Replace the examples with:

For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz.  If  you  are  using
sh, enter:

# cd /usr/X11R6
# for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do
#   tar xzf $i
# done

If you are using csh, enter:

% cd /usr/X11R6
% foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz)
%   tar xzf $i
% end

For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your
VGA board.  If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check
the  server  man  pages,  starting  on  page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets
supported by each server.  For example, if you have an ET4000 based  board  you
will use the XF86_SVGA server.  In this case you would enter:

# cd /usr/X11R6
# tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz  substitute your server name here
# for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do
#   tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz
# done


                                                                         Page 7

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.

    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

name.   In  particular,  the  Logitech  protocol only applies to older Logitech
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
# mount /usr             mount /usr file system (if separate)
# passwd root            change the password for root
Enter new password:
Enter password again:
# ^D                enter ctrl-D to continue with startup

If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it
as  well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin.  Note that you
should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system  doesn't
have the concept of user IDs.

After figure 10-8, add the following text:

It  would  be  tedious  for  every  user  to  put  settings  in  their  private

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.

In  addition,  login  classes  (page  141)  offer  another  method  of  setting
environment variables at a global level.

Changing your shell
___________________

The  FreeBSD  installation  gives root a C shell, csh.  This is the traditional
Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line  editing  is
very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of
the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay
with  the  C  shell,  you  may  still need to understand the Bourne shell.  The
latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line  editing.
See page 148 for details of how to enable it.

You  can  get  better  command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection.
You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash,
also in the Ports Collection.

If  you  have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a
more general way: use chsh (Change Shell).  Simply run the program.  It  starts
your  favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable).  Here's
an example before:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /bin/csh
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location:
Office Phone:
Home Phone:

You can change anything after the colons.  For example, you might  change  this
to:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location: On the road
Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999
Home Phone:

Page 10






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


chsh  checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and
exit the editor.  The next time you log in, you get the new shell.  chsh  tries
to  ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the
name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a  very
good  idea  to  check  the shell before logging out.  You can try this with su,
which you normally use to become super user:

bumble# su velte
Password:
su-2.00$                 note the new prompt

There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell:

o The shell for root must be on the root file system,  otherwise  it  will  not
  work  in single user mode.  Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell
  in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is  almost  never  on  the  root  file
  system.

o Most  shells  are  dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files
  such as /usr/lib/libc.a.  These files are not available in single user  mode,
  so  the shells won't work.  You can solve this problem by creating statically
  linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond
  the scope of this book.

If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps
to install it:

o Copy the shell to /bin, for example:

  # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin

o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells,  in this example the line  in  bold
  print:

  # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1).
  # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using
  # one of these shells.
  /bin/sh
  /bin/csh
  /bin/bash


You can then change the shell for root as described above.


                                                                        Page 11

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.

Replace the last paragraph on the page with:

The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to
a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link  from  /usr/tmp
to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details.

Thanks to Charlie Sorsby  for drawing this to my attention.

Add the following paragraph

Unmounting file systems

When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and
in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file  system.
This  is the same effect we discussed on page 158.  As a result, if you want to
stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it.   You  do  this
with  the umount command.  Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name.

You need to do this even with read-only  media  such  as  CD-ROMs:  the  system
assumes  it  can  access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite
unhappy if it can't.  Where possible, it locks  removable  media  so  that  you
can't remove them from the device until you unmount them.

Using  umount  is  straightforward:  just  tell  it what to unmount, either the
device name or the directory name.  For  example,  to  unmount  the  CD-ROM  we

Page 12






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands:

# umount /dev/cd1a
# umount /cd1

Before  unmounting  a  file  system, umount checks that nobody is using it.  If
somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like  umount:
/cd1:  Device  busy.   This  message often occurs because you have changed your
directory to a directory on the file system you want to  remove.   For  example
(which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt):

=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1
umount: /cd1: Device busy
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 ->

Thanks to Ken Deboy  for pointing out this
omission.

The example in the middle of the page should read:

For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter:

# cd /dev
# ./MAKEDEV pty1

You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals.   They  are  named  ttyp0  through
ttypv,  ttyq0  through  ttyqv,  ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0
through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv,  ttyR0  through  ttyRv  and  ttyS0  through
ttySv.   To  create  each  set  of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the
first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7.  Note that some processes,  such
as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv.

Thanks to Karl Wagner  for pointing out this error.

Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section:

As we saw above, the line  printer  daemon  lpd  is  responsible  for  printing
spooled  jobs.   By default it isn't started at boot time.  If you're root, you
can start it by name:

# lpd

Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system
starts up.  You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf:

lpd_enable="YES"              # Run the line printer daemon

See page  for more details of /etc/rc.conf.

Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon:

lpd_flags=""        # Flags to lpd (if enabled).

You  don't  normally  need  to  change this line.  See the man page for lpd for
details of the flags.

Thanks to Tommy  G.  James    for  bringing  this  to  my
attention.

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

In the list of disk driver flags, add:

o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode).  If this bit  is
  not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode.

o In  CHS  mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of
  heads to assume (between 1 and 15).  The driver recalculates  the  number  of
  cylinders to make up the total size of the disk.

Replace the example with:

Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel:

# cd ../../compile/FREEBIE
# make depend
# make

   The  make  depend  is needed even if the directory has just been created:
   apart from creating dependency information, it also  creates  some  files
   needed for the build.
Thanks to Mark Ovens  for drawing this to my attention.

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 17

Add the following section:

Problems executing Linux binaries
_________________________________

One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux  binaries  is
that  they  usually  contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries.
They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries.  That's  not  really  a
problem  at  this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands
is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format  as  well,
and  of  course  that's  the default.  If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on
such a system, you must brand the executable using the program  brandelf.   For
example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter:

# brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3

Thanks to Dan Busarow  for bringing this to my attention.

not available in FreeBSD version 2.

In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read:

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:

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
  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.

attention.

Page 450: anonymous ftp
_______________________

Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp:

Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home  directory  and
the  shell  /dev/null.  Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log
in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp.  ftp  can
be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group
to /etc/group.  See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page
on page 805 for adding groups.

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
  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

This comes directly from the FreeBSD handbook which you should check out
prior to asking questions on here.  Only cause I'm a nice guy, I'll post
without making you search, even though it's really not that hard (:

     * Q. Does the ports scheme only work if you have everything in
/usr/ports? My system  
       administrator says I must put everything under
/u/people/guests/wurzburger, but it 
       does not seem to work.                                                             
       A. You can use the PORTSDIR and PREFIX variables to tell the ports
mechanism to use
       different directories. For instance,                                     
    # make PORTSDIR=/u/people/guests/wurzburger/ports install           
       will compile the port in /u/people/guests/wurzburger/ports and
install everything
       under /usr/local.                                                                 
    # make PREFIX=/u/people/guests/wurzburger/local install                                
       will compile it in /usr/ports and install it in
/u/people/guests/wurzburger/local.    
       And of course                                                                         
    # make PORTSDIR=.../ports PREFIX=.../local install                                       
       will combine the two (it is too long to fit on the page if I write
it in full, but I
       am sure you get the idea).                                                           
       If you do not fancy typing all that in every time you install a
port (and to be       
       honest, who would?), it is a good idea to put these variables into
your environment.

I'm trying to run this, but get the error about /var/rwho being empty.
Since this is a directory, it is unclear if I need a file or directory for
each machine, and what their format should be.  The man page says nada on
that issue.

Well, yes, on the appropriate platform.  Since FreeBSD doesn't use
COFF, there's no way for any compiler to generate COFF for FreeBSD.

That should probably be removed.

What do you want to do?  You can get, say, an SCO UNIX version of gcc
which generates COFF, but I'm not sure why you'd want to do so.

Yes.  It normally is.  Note that the partition must be at least as
large as physical memory.

I'm not sure if this is the problem or not, but do you have relaying
setup in your /etc/mail/access file?  This file contains the ip addresses
of hosts that are allowed to relay mail through your server.  Sendmail,
by default, does not allow any relaying from outside hosts.

Check out the documentation on this, but all you should have to put is:

10.0.0.1	RELAY   <-- to allow relaying for this host
10.0.10		RELAY   <-- to allow relaying for this subnet

in your access file.  Then do:

makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access

and it should work (provided that it is actually your problem :-)

Reverse delegation?  Do you have PTR records for all your machines?

Hello,
I was trying to ssh in to my FreeBSD box and noticed from a win box that
no connection could be established.

The following is from /var/log/messages  and I am wondering if you can
help me get this fixed and what causes  it.

 20 22:39:57 heretic sshd[3179]: fatal: xmalloc: out of memory (allocating

alrea
dy in use.
Aug 20 22:48:38 heretic sshd[3222]: fatal: xmalloc: out of memory
(allocating 10
40068859 bytes)

I did try to run from /usr/local/etc/rc.d ./sshd.sh but I think that
produced a couple of the messages above. I have, like I said before what
xmalloc is.

Thank you for your help,

Lanny

What do you mean by "install"?

I'd guess that this is some kind of hardware problem, but that doesn't
help you much.  The fact that the mouse cursor disappears suggests
that it's related to X.  A couple of things to try:

1.  When it happens next, try changing virtual terminals to, say,
    ttyv1.  You do this by pressing ctrl-alt-F2.  If this works, it's
    not the system freezing, it's X.  You can log in and shoot X
    down.  Look for the process called Xwrapper.

2.  If that doesn't help, switch to ttyv1 *before* it freezes.  Leave
    it overnight or longer to see if it still freezes.

3.  If you still have no joy, let's hear more about the X
    configuration.  Are you using some exotic window mangler?

Is there some reason normal users, or Apache needs access to /etc? If so,
what files? I did a chmod 700 on /etc, and user directories(cpl.net/~user)
stop working, but virtualhosts still worked, in fact the only thing that
broke was user directories. Does anyone know what may have been the problem,
or what file(s) the web server needs? The Apache error_log had this to say
when attempting access to my (or any) user directory :

[Fri Aug 20 19:10:19 1999] [error] [client 192.216.87.249] File does not
exist: /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/cpl-dev/~shawn

Which makes no sence, because my home directory is in /disk6/shawn .......
(symlinked from /home, but I don't think that matters)

You need to run the 'rwhod' daemon on each host ont he network, like mine
looks like


telnetd ~/audio$ ruptime
radiation   down      2:14
stinky        up   3+09:15,     4 users,  load 0.18, 0.04, 0.01
unix9         up   3+03:51,     0 users,  load 0.12, 0.08, 0.08
telnetd ~/audio$ 

I havent run the rwhod daemon on radiation, So its down.

Good evening.  We have a Cox Communications cable modem.  They use the
@Home Network.  We would like to setup NAT so that both our machines can
go out.  We have tried to use Linux RedHat 6.0 but have not been able to
get IPMasq to resolve the Windows NT Server host names (we use a static
IP address, but the @Home Network apparently manages itself with Windows
NT Server and NT DHCP).  This is apparently a known problem with
IPMasq.  Does this problem exists with NAT as well?  If so, can we get
around it?  If so, how (URL to help us out perhaps?)?

Thank you for your help!

If you're having problems setting it up, please provide us
with more details: tell us _exactly_ what are you doing and
what doesn't work.  Without this information, there is no
chance to help you.

Subject: Passing file descriptors via UNIX domain sockets
From: "Ronald F. Guilmette"

Greetings,

I'm trying to figure out exactly how to pass file descriptors between
programs.

It appears that the examples given in Stevens' ``UNIX Network Programming''
(original edition) on pages 308-312 no longer accurately describes what one
must do to actually pass file descriptors.

The man page for recvmsg(2) definitely provides some clues regarding the
new programatic idiom that must be used to pass files descriptors around,
but it is a little too terse, saying only:

       Open file descriptors are now passed as ancillary data for
       AF_UNIX domain sockets, with cmsg_level set to  SOL_SOCKET
       and cmsg_type set to SCM_RIGHTS.

It would be REALLY helpful for me to be able to actually _see_ an example
of some real working code that used the new style for file descriptor passing
between processes.  Then I could just mimic that code in a monkey-see /
monkey-do fashion.

So can anyone point me at a _current_ hunk of example code that shows open
file descriptors being passed between programs?  If so, I would be much
obliged.

I'm plugging through The Perl Cookbook and also the ancient Web
Client Programming with Perl books from O'Reilly.  Many of the
examples for what I'm working on now use the use HTML::Parse;
syntax.  But, it turns out that HTML::Parse has been depricated.  

Could anyone please tell me whether my using that syntax, even
though it's depricated, will cause any havoc?  I've already
installed HTML-Tree-0.51 without any error signals, but then, I'm
pretty new to Perl.  I'd appreciate it if one of you gurus could let
me know before I hose my perl installation.  :-)

That's fancy stuff, or at least we've seen bugs in the past.  Try
using a different window manager for a while and see if it still
happens.

But how does Apache know that your home directory is /disk6/shawn if
there's no [accessible] /etc/passwd to look it up in ? :)

Yup. :) I should have figured that out... But it also needs access to
pwd.db. Why is that? I wouldn't think the webserver could read or understand
that file.

It would make more sense of Apache to use the standard system call
(whatever it is) to get a user's home directory, rather than parsing
/etc/passwd directly. pwd.db is the db version of passwd, and it's what
the system calls use. I'm no longer sure that /etc/passwd is needed, since
pwd.db is what the system uses.

Subject: sendmail 8.9.3 from 3.2 strips lines in base64 parts of MIME mes
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG


Hello there!

Sendmail 8.9.3 from FreeBSD 3.2 seems to strip lines in the base64
encoded part of a MIME message. I've tried to mail (not local delivering)
some ZIP-archives > 100k (base64 encoded - octet-stream) and sendmail 8.9.3
strips some lines in the part of the attached file.

I have the standard sendmail.cf from the installation, only DSpop.netway.at
for smart relay and DJjawa.at for masquerading are modified. The mail server is
connected to the internet via dial up ppp (isdnd, sppp, natd).

MUA: pine4, xfmail (both FreeBSD 3.2) and Netscape 4.51 (Win98). The mail
clients connect via smtp to our local mail server which relays to
pop.netway.at. If I send a mail outside our local domain the message will be
corrupted.

If I change the configuration for the mail clients to connect direct the
ISP's mail server (sendmail 8.9.1) instead of our local 8.9.3 mail server
the messages are not corrupted.

Any ideas are welcome!

cu

Did you install the compat22 distribution when you installed 3.2?
It is needed for running old a.out programs.

Hi,

How do you connect a parralel zip drive to a FreeBSD 3.1 box. Ive checked
out the FAQ's which says its supported throught the ppbus, I made sure my
kernel contains the lines needed but I can't get it to work.

this is the dmesg|grep ppbus output

nlpt0:  on ppbus 0
ppi0:  on ppbus 0
plip0:  on ppbus 0

I tried: 

mount -t msdos /dev/da0s4 /zip  ( Bad signature and some more ) or,

mount -t msdos /dev/ppi0 /zip  ( says: mount: Block device required )


tnx, rotan ( rotan@cs.pdx.edu ).

I was first using GENERIC and then I tried to rebuild my old kernel.
OK, atkbd is ne as some other things like ppbus.

It started to barf at vnode.h as if the ANSI prototypes were not being
recognized (something like in line structure definition which
is not what you want.. - warning from compiler). 

Maybe I installed ssys.?? only by cat ssys.?? | tar xzvf - -C /
Later I did that again with install.sh sys and from then on, maybe 
after another reboot I was able to compile the kernel. I also took out
pseudo device vn and option CD9660.

I've been playing with freeBsd for a while now at work and I like it and
I'm just starting to get to the point where I understand how it works
but I am facing a crisis and I don't have time to search out the
solution from the man pages and my friends who use BSD don't know the
answer. 

A new manager has come in and he likes MS outlook he thinks it is the
way the company should go with email and inter-office communications and
email. he also likes NT( He never administered it but he considers
himself an expert). After using it as a (fileserver/PDC for 3 yrs I
don't though it may be a function of my not having configured it
correctly. My heart hasn't been in it though I have done a lot of
reading and brought a lot of books.) I have plans to switch over to a
freeBSD 3.2 server, with Samba as a PDC and Run our main database on a
Linux box using Oracle 8.

But In order to keep from being saddled with another NT server( when I
want to get rid of the one I have now.) I need to provide an alternative
to the Outlook proposal and hopefully a cost effective one.

I think I have enough pull to get a freebsd proposal accepted but I need
some help figuring out how to implement it or even if it is possible
within a reasonable timeframe.

additional background
-company has 35 employees will expand to 65 in the next year.
- I am the IS department 
- my users don't know Unix,bsd and are only reasonable competent in 
windows.
-for email we use Eudora 3.0 and Netscape 4.5 on the workstations but
if  the have to learn outlook they can learn to use something else
though  they are going to need to have a GUI
-office 97 is the current office suite mostly word, exceland access
- I've done 3 installs ( 2 2.2.8 with xwindows,KDE,samba and 1 3.2 that 
is as yet unconfigured)
-the users are using windows NT ws,windows 95 and windows 98
-workstations are shared forthe most part and the user should be able
to  access their files email and hte internet from any work station

So my questions are:

Has anybody done this? (Used freebsd to provide an effective alternative
to NT/Outlook.)

How would you suggest I go about it? The field is preetty much wide open
since I would be starting from scratch ( I would need to buy hardware
and software.)

Is there commercial or opensource workgroup software for freebsd?

I probably left some important details out so feel free to contact me
for clarifiction.

TIA

That answer is very simple.

gateway.townandcountry.org doesn't exist as far as the rest of the world
goes.  I tried doing an nslookup on it.

Sendmail on the receiving side is rejecting the e-mail because of this
(anti-spam stuff).

What you need to do is either:
1. Make a valid DNS entry for townandcountry.org, or...
2. Have sendmail masquerade as townandcountry.org and re-write headers of
all outgoing mail.

I had the same problem with the MySQL port.  I installed the source
and it worked fine.  You might want to give it a try and see if you
have any better luck.  That'll be $65 ;-)

If the workstations are going to stay windows workstations.  Just setup IMAP
mail on the freebsd server and point netscape/eudora/outlook to the IMAP
server.

Check out imap-uw in the ports.

As for PDC, samba provides PDC functionality, but it is still in beta.
(I've played with it a little bit and it did seem to work tho).

or are all the workstations going to FreeBSD as well?

Hopefully this will be a trivial question, but I haven't found the answer yet
online or in Greg's FreeBSD book.

How large can a file be under FreeBSD? I've heard that under Linux the size
limit is 2gb.

It's not difficult to imagine large log files resulting from a busy web site,
but most documentation seems to be focused on minimums rather than maximums.

My FreeBSD clock is really slow... for every second, around 5-10 minutes
have gone by... i tried doing the NTIMECOUNTER=20 in kernel, no go.
Windows never had this problem (jsut to let you know it has worked
before), plus when i reboot, my cmos clock is still fine... is there a
way to have freebsd read from the cmos clock isntead of trying to do its
own thing?  the only way i can keep current time is the shell script i
have to keep updating my time from time servers every second.  thanks.

According to the FAQ >4TB:

2.27. What are the limits for ffs filesystems?

For ffs filesystems, the maximum theoretical limit is 8 terabytes
(2G blocks), or 16TB for the default block size of 8K. In practice,
there is a soft limit of 1 terabyte, but with modifications
filesystems with 4 terabytes are possible (and exist).

The maximum size of a single ffs file is approximately 1G blocks
(4TB) if the block size is 4K.

Thanks for backing me up on this one !

This is EXACTLY what I am finding installing 3.2 using a variety of hardware
via ftp viz...

Set up hardware OK, connect to ftp server - works fine - then hangs at 1024K
transferred !

Funny enough, the smallest box I have - 486/25 8Mb 2*130Mb drives, installed
perfectly, but using the same network card in another (larger) box just
gives the same old hang...

Transferring one of the network cards that failed (?) to the 'working' box,
I find that 'most' IP is OK, ping, telnet etc. all OK BUT ftp either in or
out hangs at the 1024K barrier, I (think I...) have eliminated network
cards, HDD's, CPU's memory etc. on the grounds that subsequent installs of
Linux (either Slackware4.0 or RedHat) both pick up all the hardware AND use
the network card OK.

One answer was to try a different ftp server, in my case, I have downloaded
to my Win95 box to minimise connect time, so just run either G6 or Netftpd,
both/either of which are OK with different apps, both of which have been
used succesfully for the FreeBSD load onto my base system

I have tried different IRQ/membase etc to no effect, I am convinced now that
another process is causing this (routed ???) if so, how do I/we get round
this, I really would like to have a 'real' FreeBSD box running as a 'network
services' server.

The email part is easy enough.  BSD on a pentium would easily support smtp
and pop3/imap for that many users.  Like the other answer said, just have
the users point their mail client at the new bsd server.

I've meet with similar problem, so I need additional info from you.

1) How many HD's you have? If more then one, does master/slave jumpers
   are set correctly?
2) Could you please send dmesg output.
3) If this problem appears only when you run X?
4) Try to save Xserver output to file. For example: startx >xsever.log 2>&1 & 

This will help to find your problem quickly.

Help, I install freeBSD. I have it one a 13 gig disk, and Linux on the
same disk, I have Linux first, then freeBSD. LILO doesn't detect
freeBSD, so I was wondering how do I make a boot disk to boot the
system, not one to boot the system where I install it. If you could
help, thank you.

I still can't get Free BSD to find my CD-ROM at install.
I took the CD-ROM drive out and changed the cable from master to
slave and changed the jumpers sometimes it would not even
boot from the CD . When it did boot it didnt find the CD drive.
I then tried to boot from floppy with the CD in it still didnt find the
CD drive .

I then tried something really different. I made a boot floppy for
Open BSD and when it booted it found the CD drive the first time
it probed my computer.

I guess my computer is set up in a way that FreeBSD can't find
my CD drive. I really want to install Free BSD but it it getting
fustrating . Will some one please help?

How old is your computer (and CD-ROM drive)?

I recently installed FreeBSD 3.2 on a 4-year old Dell Dimension with a 4x
IDE CDROM. FreeBSD did detect it as Secondary Master, but the kernel probe
took about five minutes.

I replaced the old CDROM with a new el-cheapo (<$50) 24x modern-day ATAPI
drive, and it works flawlessly.

If you can afford it, you may want to upgrade your CDROM drive...

Zope runs on FreeBSD.  What Christophe was asking, though, is whether
there is a FreeBSD-ports-system port of Zope.  There is not.  I don't
know whether somebody is working on one.

Hi,
     I really hate to bother you, but I went to add that kernel patch for
the USB Mouse, and guess what? Because I recently upgraded to 4.0-CURRENT,
the code that you told me to patch isin't the same. Maybe I should stop
bothering you and ask the BSD-USB mailing list. I would like to know the
addess of that mailing list either way :)

Thanks for all of your help

I am refering to StarOffice and things like that for the Office
compatibility. I think there is one other one besides StarOffice that I am
thinking of, but I don't know the name of it off hand. The Outlook like
thing is tough, but isin't there an integrated office/calendar/scheduling
thing in the ports collection (if you don't know, thats at
http://www.freebsd.org/ports). I believe it might be koffice.

I'll do some lookng and if i come up with anything i'll be sure to let you
know.

Hi,
     I believe I have heard about a 1024K ftp problem though this mailing

Good luck

The default block-size is 8kB, so if you let sysinstall newfs your
disks then that's what it'll be.

dumpfs(8) is the only way that I know (but there are probably
several other ways) of finding the block-size of an existing fs.
The disk must be umounted for dumpfs to work which makes checking
the root fs a bit difficult :-)

As to the integrated calendar/scheduling part, don't forget that NetScape
Communicator 4.x includes integrated calendaring and scheduling.

As to the integrated "Office"-like apps, C|NET - http://www.cnet.com - did a
review a few months back that compared MS Office with a lot of other "business
productivity suites", many of whom had Open Source-compatible versions.

I'd give you the direct URL to the article but I'm on the phone just now so this
note is about all I can manage!

I just recently did about a half dozen net installs, on boxes ranging from
a 486-100 to a K^II-350.  All of em stalled for a second or two at the
point you stated, but then continued on.

1. Does anyone have an idea when/if FreeBSD is going to support the BP6's
UDMA-66 IDE interface? (My nomenclature is almost assuredly wrong.)

2. Had anyone tried the Western Digital 7200rpm UDMA-66 drives with FreeBSD?

3. Are dual Celerons fully supported by FreeBSD?

Thanks, [RC]

I am going to try a 7200 rpm quantum udma66 drive tonight, hopefully
that'll go well.

Hi,

Recently bought The Complete FreeBSD out of curiosity. I have two Linux
systems running and in heavy daily use; I thought it would be nice to have
a FreeBSD system to go with them. I bought an (admittedly, budget) new PC
to install it on. 

However, during the boot I have about a 90% chance it seems to get the
error "atapi0.1: unknown phase" (or "atapi1.0: unknown phase", depending
on whether I connect the CD-ROM to the primary or secondary
IDE-interface).

I tried exchanging the CD-ROM players in the new PC and in both Linux
boxes. They are a Lite-on LTN301, Lite-on LTN382 and Philips PCA408CDB.
All three exhibit the same behavior in the FreeBSD box, yet all three work
fine in any of the Linux boxes.

On one web page I found the explanation that the atapi error is a sure
sign of a sucky CD-ROM player. I find this hard to believe -- after all
they work fine under Linux, and FreeBSD is supposed to be *better*, right
:-) ?

Is there some sort of patch or something that would make my system boot a
little more reliably (as in, nearly 100% of the time)? 

By keeping fingers crossed, being really, really persistent and rebooting
a lot of times, I have been able to install FreeBSD correctly, but
whenever I reboot, the atapi error comes back to hunt me :-)

Is there something I can do?

Thanks,
--Niels

Why don't you enable chat logging and see what's going wrong ?  
Nobody can tell you if your config is wrong as they don't know

Take a look at the ppp(8) code - specifically at 
bundle_ReceiveDatalink() and bundle_SendDatalink() in bundle.c.

Yep!  That's the ticket alrightee!  That's exactly what I was looking
for.  That code is most helpful as an example, and I am now gleefully
(and successfully) passing file descriptors!

(I found the exact code you mentioned late last night, after I posted
my question to freebsd-questions.  DUH!  I guess I should have gone
grepping sources before I bothered everybody here.  Sorry.)

P.S.  The capability to pass open file descriptors between processes...
even between otherwise unrelated processes... is way cool!  I can do some
neat things with this!  Too bad the little pair of programs I wrote (just to
see if I could actually make this fd passing stuff work) doesn't actually
work under the Linux 2.2.7 kernel I have installed :-( even though it
works just fine on FreeBSD. :-)

One caveat (I had to learn the hard way!) is that you *must* also 
pass some data in the oivec.  If you don't, the descriptor isn't 
passed.  Also, make sure you get an acknowledgement from the other 
side before closing the descriptor.  If you close it while it's in 
transit, the other side will receive a closed descriptor as the open 
count isn't incremented as it's passed (in case the other side never 
does a recvmsg()).

How many people are going to stick multi-gigabyte files on the root fs?

>Are you behind a firewall, and if so are you choosing the passive ftp?


No, what I have done is just downloaded 3.2-RELEASE off the 'net to my Win95
box for time/backup reasons, and am just running a Win95 ftp server (either
War/G6/Netftpd) - this gives me backup/resiliance in case my ISP kicks me
out !.

What I have found is that adding memory has solved the problem viz:

On a Dell Netplex 486/25, I installed perfectly OK with just 8Mb, but this
install used a minimal driver set, the other installs have been to a Dell
486/100 Dimension, but with a CD player (etc) installed - I swapped out the
network card for a PNP NE2000 clone, upped from 8Mb to 12Mb, and while there
was still a slight pause after 1024K, the download picked up and ran OK, I
would guess that with >12Mb I would not have even noticed the pause.

Seems to me that install needs >12Mb for safety, the funny thing is that
reverting to 8Mb still runs OK, ftp gives a slight pause, still, with EDO at
£20/16Mb I can't really complain.

Now off to install the rest of the system.

Hello,
I've made a software (an .Xmodmap solution) for all Central European
keyboard layouts
in X Windows in FreeBSD. My solution can be also used for any keyboard
using
latin letters. The problem is that I don't have it yet on any Internet
site and I'd like to
port it. It's a little software, only few files. How can I port this
software to be included
as a package in FreeBSD?

Sincerely,
Juraj Sipos

Hey,

	I installed X3.3.4 from the port.  It dosent seem to be installing
a few Key apps.

XF86Setup and the aout libs.  Ive setup X manytimes before from the port.
But never had these problems.  I need the aout libs to run netscape.
Ive installed compat22 many times, but its the aout libs for x that i
need.


Thanks
James

Yes, and Apache does not need /etc/passwd.

	It's still good to have it around. I've run some software in the past that
barfed if it couldn't read directly from /etc/passwd, and it was darn
tricky to debug too.

I am _not_ passing any data in the iovec now, and yet the file descriptor
seems to come across just fine... at least on FreeBSD.  I'll try passing
some data along with the fd on Linux and see if that helps any.

Yes.  I _did_ notice that sort of handshake going on in the BSD ppp code,
where it is passing fds.  So I implemented that too, going on the assumption
that (as you said) if the fd is in transit, and the sender closes it before
it makes it to the receiver, that it may just be closed for good, and that
the receiver may then just end up receiving a closed (and useless) fd.

I was kinda wondering about that possibility while I was looking at the
fd passing example in my (first edition) Stevens' book.  In the example
in the book, the sending process *didn't* seem to wait to make sure that
the receiver actually received the fd before the sender exited!  That
looked damed suspicious to me, so I was already on my guard about the
possible need for the sender to wait for some sort of ACK back from the
received (as happens in the BSD ppp code) when I started to code up my
little fd-passing test programs.

I'll bet that *this* (i.e. failure to wait for an ACK from the receiver)
bites a lot of people... especially anyone who is just looking at the
(first edition) Stevens book when trying to figure out how to do this
stuff.  But then again, anybody who is *just* looking at that, and who
is trying to make this stuff work (as I was) won't be able to get it
anywhere near to working with the new coding idiom that you have to use
with the new (Free)BSD kernel networking code that supports this (fd
passing) stuff anyway.

Thank God for source code!

Hi,

I've searched all the web and ftp with major searchers for FreeBSD ISOs.
I thought that -similar to the Linux distributions- there is a FreeBSD
CD-ROM image out there, which ease the installation procedure for people
with limited bandwith.

Can anyone help me with telling me about the existence of this ISO file?

Thanks...

ps: please cc for my mail address too

So, you have limited bw and want the iso??? Get the cd cheapie style from
www.cheapbytes.com.  Heres the install instruction page
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html you only need to download 2
floppies to start.

Hi

I tried to install the netscape-4.51 package from the 3.2R, but I got the
following error: (3.04 works however)...
# netscape
Couldn't open /usr/libexec/ld.so.
I already tried a symlink, but it doesn't work... What should I do?

Another problem:
kdm[4836]: server XBINDIR/X cannot be executed
Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly: 1 
And nothing more from kdm... How do I solve this? It looks like XBINDIR is
hardcoded, it didn't help defining it as varaiable...

Finally... x11amp 0.8 doesnt work, however it should according to the
description in the package... Am I right? (I use the standard FreeBSD
drivers, voxw. I assume)...

Paul

	Take a look at the ports for portlint and mergemaster for examples of how
to make a port that only installs files, but does not need to 'make'
anything.

	XF86Setup doesn't get installed if you don't have tcl/tk on your system.
When you build the port there is a question about whether you want to build
the aout libs or not. If you didn't see that question you need to update
your ports tree and try again. 

Good luck,

Doug

Interesting. When I run disklabel (from ``boot -s'') it returns 0
in the fsize, bsize,bps/cpg columns (3.1-R), on all umounted fs.

Here's one for you.. Hoping someone there can help.. I've got an SB16 ISA (real
SB, not a knock off, and I'm trying to compile a kernel w/sound support in it.. 

Windows tells me the settings are IRQ 5, 8bit DMA 1, 16bit DMA 5, at 0x220 and
0x330 (midi) Followed the instructions in the handbook and I'm getting a failure
during 'make'.. Here's the error lines:

soundcard.o: In function 'sndpoll':
soundcard.o(.text+0x2f7): undefined reference to `MIDIbuf_poll'
sound_switch.o: In function `sound_read_sw':
sound_switch.o(.text+0x52d): undefined reference to `MIDIbuf_read'

sound_switch.o: In function `sound_ioctl_sw':
sound_switch.o(.text+0x835): undefined reference to `MIDIbuf_ioctl'
*** Error code 1

Stop.

	I've done everything listed on the handbook pages.. But it keeps giving
me this error. 

the only thing I can possible think of is if the arguments in the kernel config
file have to be in a certain location.. I just tacked them on at the end.. That
couldn'd make the diff? Could it?

Below is include a copy of the configuration file.. The three lines relating to
my (attempted) sound configuration are at the very end, the last three lines.. 

And suggestions or FAQ/help resources you could direct me to would be
appreciated... 

cheers

	You need to install the compat22 distribution to get the aout
compatability libraries. You can use /stand/sysinstall to do this. 

good luck,

You can run dumpfs against the raw device:

  dumpfs: /dev/wd0s1a: Device busy
  # dumpfs /dev/rwd0s1a

When I start xpm it displays at the default 8bpp. I've scoured through
almost all documentations (html references, man pages and README's) in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/ to no avail. Is there some simple prefix in one of the
xpm files or does /etc/XF86Config have to be changed as such?

This is how it currently looks: (note the Depth variable) ----------------

Is something else compared to migrating within the 3.1 branche. In fact, in
my case it didn't turn out as advertised at all. For starters the rebuild
kernel wouldn't load:

Booting [kernerl] /kernel text=0x131d0a
elf_loadexec: archsw.readin failed
can't load 'kernel'

is what it complained about. Well, I had seen messages stating that one
should start with rebuilding the GENERIC kernel in case of changed options
and take it from there, so this didn't come as a total shock.

However, other things did. Before reboot I did merge, manually, all
changes in /etc, /dev et al. All except for the sendmail.cf which I
saved for a rainy day.

But when I finally found a kernel that would boot and connect to the 'Net
I got my next surprise. It wouldn't load the rc's. I got things like
"inetd: illegal option --w" and lots of complaints about "set -T" not
being as legal as the script supposed. Finally there was in 
/etc/defaults/rc.conf an addition stating that natd resides in /sbin
whereas in actuallity it resides in /usr/bin on my system.

So I was forced to "boot" manually. Which is a problem if one has become
used to having scripts doing the diry work. Still, I managed to bring
the system up to a more or less operable state. In which process I
discovered that several other things went awry as well. Most notably
I do not have all man pages. The 3.2 migration did add the TCP wrappers
but did not add the accompanying manpages. Bummer.

Anyway, at this point I'm wondering how best to proceed. Clearly my
system is out of whack, so how to whack it back again? What would be
the best strategy to bring it back into shape.

What to do and how to do it? If anyone knows, *please* advice.

Roelof

PS did try searching for clues, got lots and lots of references, none
truly helpful alas. The best I could come up with was:

http://x21.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=502545224&CONTEXT=935290767.1877737511&hitnum=0

which describes it as "not that hard". Well... is, too! Bah.

I assume you mean XDM, not xpm (which are pixmaps).   :-)

In /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers change:

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X 

to 

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -bpp 32

where you can change the bpp setting to any of 8, 16, 24, 32 (I have 8 MB
on my vid card so I use 32).

Hi all,

I was grepping through the archives tonight and found from:

  http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1884403+1887301+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990614.freebsd-questions

that fdformat + mkdosfs would format a floppy and put a DOS filesystem on
it. That's what I was looking for! However, I cannot seem to find the
binary or the source for mkdosfs (or a port).

On my 2.2.8-STABLE machine it is /usr/sbin/mkdosfs and the source is in the
appropriate place within the tree.

I copied over the binary from this machine to my 3.2-STABLE machine and it
seems to work without a hitch. So, the question: where did "mkdosfs" go?

Has this been replaced by some other mechanism for formatting (DOS) 
floppies?

Thanks,

-Jr

Subject: EIDE controller only seen with install disks
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

If i boot my install disks, the kernel finds wdc1 at 0x170 irq 15.
Everything is peachy, and acd0 is found.  If only life was that easy :)

here are the options from my latest kernel regarding wdc1 and acd0:
controller wdc1  at isa?  port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15
disk wd2 at wdc1 drive 0
options ATAPI
options ATAPI_STATIC
device acd0

no go.  dmesg | grep -i wdc1 yields the following:
wdc1 not found at 0x170
I've double checked to make sure that the CD-ROM is set to master.
I've even fooled with IDE_TIMEOUT settings wondering if maybe the kernel on the installation disks were out of the norm. (And that my CD-ROM wasn't to spec)
Its an 8x Sony drive.   Installation disk is able to find wdc1 at 0x170, irq 15.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a DDS-III drive in my FreeBSD 3.2 box. During boot up, the
kernel recognizes the drive, refers to it as sa0, and boots as expected.

But I don't have a "/dev/sa0" and don't know how to access my tape
unit.

What am I missing?

Try talking to /dev/rsa0 for the rewind on close device and /dev/nrsa0
for the no rewind on close device.

so, if you tar or dump/resore to/from /dev/rsa0, the tape will be rewound
when the operation is completed.  Using /dev/nrsa0, the tape will stay
at it's last position.  /dev/nrsa0 is good for putting multiple archives
on the same tape.

I know that if I were to add

	!named
	*.*					/var/log/named.log

to my /etc/syslog.conf, it would log everything from named to that file.
Now, right now, I have daemon.* logging stuff to a file... um, and I want
it to EXCLUDE anything from named. Is this possible? How do I do this in
syslog.conf? Forgive me if it's a stupid question...Thanks.
