The nis clients, which don't have any server parts, can login. I'm having trouble locating the problem and wounder if anyone else have a idee. The problem proberbly exist for some because the use of a installed ssh-key, before i found out. I've folowed the chapter handbook about setting up nis . And qoogled to find earlier give solutions. The search wan't succesfull. The rc.conf of the server hold the folowing lines: portmap_enable="YES" nisdomainname="nisdomain" nis_server_enable="YES" nis_yppasswdd_enable="YES" nis_client_enable="YES" nis_client_flags="-S nisdomain,intranet" And the folowing command give the folowing out put: # domainname nisdomain # ypwhich Intranet.lan # ping Intranet.lan PING intranet.lan (192.168.31.1): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.31.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.161 ms (Which is the ip adres of the nis server) # ypserver -d (while trying to login from the nis server) This produce a large amound of data, which shows that the record needed is given by the server.

Instead do this: cd /etc/mail/ cp freebsd.mc prophecy.dyndns.org.mc (Make all changes to this file from now on and when you've made a change to it at any time, make sure to rebuild a new .cf file from it using 'make', see below:). Now check that this line is in /etc/mail/prophecy.dyndns.org.mc: define(`confCW_FILE', `-o /etc/mail/local-host-names') And then: cp /etc/defaults/make.conf /etc/make.conf Edit /etc/make.conf so it includes: SENDMAIL_MC=/etc/mail/prophecy.dyndns.org.mc (this ensures that when you 'make installworld' your config is used) (note you only really have to copy the bit above into the /etc/make.conf file, the file only has effect when you run 'make' in /usr/src afaik) Edit your /etc/local-host-names file so it includes: prophecy.dyndns.org (sounds like you did this already:) cd /etc/mail make all cp prophecy.dyndns.org.cf freebsd.cf make restart The 'make all' line makes the cf file 'prophecy.dyndns.org.cf' from the prophecy.dyndns.org.mc file and also makes any map and aliases dbs if those files have changed at all since the last 'make'. The 'make restart' just restarts the sendmail binaries for the msp (client runner) and mta (the main mail tx agent).

(I am a sysadmin, but this is my first real experience with FreeBSD.) I want to be able to keep the box reasonably current on security patches to the os, so it seems to me that i should be tracking freebsd-RELEASE. My question is in two parts: (a) (I think the answer is no, but would love to hear otherwise): Do i have an alternative to maintaining a source tree on this machine? The release engineering notes: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html mention binary patchkits for the release branch, but i don't think these actually exist. Does anyone know? Conversely, how easy is it to do updates using /stand/sysinstall without changing my system configuration more than needed? The buildworld -> installworld -> mergemaster routine seems convenient and stable, but i don't like doing source compiles on a production machine, and we don't have budget for a spare with similar architecture. (b) Specifically, the machine is currently running 4.6-RELEASE, and i thought i would upgrade it to 4.8-RELEASE and track that, since FreeBSD will test its security patches for longer (right?), so i won't have to upgrade again for awhile. The machine was originally installed using /stand/sysinstall, and not by me. I have tested out the sysinstall -> cvs upgrade -> build -> install process on a spare machine of my own, and haven't run into any difficult problems. Can i expect this upgrade to go smoothly? The machine is running a lot of third-party software, which i am not going to touch. Are there any particular red flags i should look for in terms of either (1) going from a sysinstall install to a source install, or (2) going from 4.6-RELEASE to 4.8-RELEASE? Basically, i'm looking for things i can do to make it more likely that the install will just work (tm). Sorry this question is so long --- i've read the manuals i could find, and there's no substitute for advice from people with experience with the os. If there are any other references which specifically talk about this kind of thing, please point me to those, though. Thanks very much in advance! -Chaos From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Apr 20 08:34:31 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B588037B401 for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 08:34:31 -0700 (PDT) Received: from smtp-out.comcast.net (smtp-out.comcast.net [24.153.64.109]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 29EC043FDD for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 08:34:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from apeiron@comcast.net) Received: from [192.168.0.10] (pcp01380957pcs.levtwn01.pa.comcast.net [68.81.162.166]) by mtaout11.icomcast.net (iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.14 (built Mar 18 2003)) with ESMTP id <0HDN009BTF934J@mtaout11.icomcast.net> for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 11:34:15 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2003 11:34:17 -0400 From: Christopher Nehren In-reply-to: <20030420133335.GB70273@users.munk.nu> To: Jez Hancock Message-id: <1050852857.2369.25.camel@prophecy.dyndns.org> Organization: MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Ximian Evolution 1.2.4 Content-type: multipart/signed; boundary="=-Kh262+gg9juClfj+je1i"; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; micalg=pgp-sha1 References: <1050842887.2369.9.camel@prophecy.dyndns.org> <20030420133335.GB70273@users.munk.nu> cc: FreeBSD questions List Subject: Re: Same old sendmail "loops back to me", not solved with FAQ, etc. X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2003 15:34:32 -0000 --=-Kh262+gg9juClfj+je1i Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Sun, 2003-04-20 at 09:33, Jez Hancock wrote: > Hi, >=20 > Firstly have you tried setting up an MX record for prophecy.dyndns.org so= it > points to your latest IP addr each time you reconnect? I forgot (my apologies) to mention that the IP address and MX record are completely and totally irrelevant, as all I'm trying to do is send email from a router for my home network to a machine on that home network. 'prophecy.dyndns.org' is simply a DynDNS hostname for my IP that I prefer to use instead of pcp[numbers]pcs.levtwn01.comcast.net . Yes, I've set up the /etc/mail/service.switch file correctly on both machines, and I have host entries in /etc/hosts , and it still barfs on me.

The error message that I get is the typical "mail loops back to me (MX problem?)". I've set up my service.switch file to use /etc/hosts instead of trying to use DNS to resolve the host. Yes, I've read the FAQ, as I stated before. I've followed it. I've searched mailing list archives for the error message.

This does *NOT* work with some printers (including my Canon S600). However, once apsfilter+ghostscript are installed, the printer works fine. But piping to /dev/lpt0 (or whatever device you are set up for) does not print anything. On my printer in particular, the light blinks when I write to /dev/lpt0, but nothing comes out. This inaccuracy cost me a good day's worth of troubleshooting, because the handbook strongly advised getting this part working before moving on to config'ing printcap and apsfilter. I eventually gave up on this part and decided to move on, at which point I was amazed when it actually worked.

Assuming you're running on i386 hardware, and staying current, binary patches are released for most security advisories. For more information, look at the advisories themselves, which will direct you to excellent information on how they may be applied. This usually includes binary updating instructions. Binary upgrades are fine if you don't use custom compile flags. Past advisories can be found here: http://www.freebsd.org/security/ > Does anyone know?

For a production machine, I'd recommend the buildworld process, with copious backups, scheduled maintenance window, and a test run on a different machine. (Even if it's *not* a similar architecture. 99% of the battle is getting things right with mergemaster... and you can test *that* on an old Pentium :-) > (b) Specifically, the machine is currently running 4.6-RELEASE, and > i thought i would upgrade it to 4.8-RELEASE and track that, > since FreeBSD will test its security patches for longer (right?), Right. http://www.freebsd.org/security/#adv > so i won't have to upgrade again for awhile.

Good! Document your progress. Try it again by mirroring your production machine's configuration (and OS build, which you can still download and install, if necessary), and make sure you can do that smoothly. An extra hour or two to do this is *well* worth the effort, if it reduces the risk of serious downtime and pissed customers or lost productivity. > Can i expect this upgrade to go smoothly? It depends how skilled you are. :-) Honestly, many people on this list have done this many times, without much grief. Going between minor point releases (4.6 -> 4.7) is a bit tricker, because new features get added to the system between releases that you'll have to contend with. (And, typically, mergemaster comes up with many more diffs). In your case, since your testing facilities are limited, I'd probably do 4.6 -> 4.7 first, and test that profusely. Do the upgrade to 4.8 at a later date. This isn't *necessary*, but you may find it helpful. Oh, and, as the instructions say, read /usr/src/UPDATING . It will hopefully contain most of the "gotchas" that you will be expected to know about while doing the upgrade. > The machine is running > a lot of third-party software, which i am not going to touch. Beware statically linked binaries in your 3rd party software. Our binary format hasn't changed, but you will run into snags with updates to system libraries if they've been statically linked. > Are there any particular red flags i should look for in terms > of either (1) going from a sysinstall install to a source > install, or (2) going from 4.6-RELEASE to 4.8-RELEASE? Basically, > i'm looking for things i can do to make it more likely that the > install will just work (tm). A source install is still probably the way to go, as it allows you the greatest range of customization and control while you upgrade your system. In terms of production machines, you're making a relatively large move, so you want to proceed carefully. (Nix that. You *always* want to proceed carefully :-). Once you're tracking a more current release (RELENG_4_8), the updates will be comparatively small. In many cases, you can apply the updates in binary form, or recompile only specific bits of the OS (e.g., sendmail), without even rebooting. It is not usually necessary to rebuild the entire OS. Pearls of wisdom (not all about FreeBSD): Give yourself lots of time. cvsup/buildworld anytime. Schedule a maintenance window for mergemaster and installworld in the wee hours, if possible. Schedule 4X the amount of time you'll need, and then happily report you did it in a fraction of the time. Do not respond (have someone else respond) to customer/internal reports during the outage. Don't rush; chances are you'll just bugger something up and waste *more* time. Document everything. > Sorry this question is so long :-) Hope this helps, - Ryan -- Ryan Thompson SaskNow Technologies - http://www.sasknow.com 901-1st Avenue North - Saskatoon, SK - S7K 1Y4 Tel: 306-664-3600 Fax: 306-244-7037 Saskatoon Toll-Free: 877-727-5669 (877-SASKNOW) North America From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Apr 20 09:48:45 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6FF3637B404 for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 09:48:45 -0700 (PDT) Received: from serv1.wallnet.com (server1.wallnet.com [208.225.162.122]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8509543FD7 for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 09:48:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from timothyk@wallnet.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by serv1.wallnet.com (8.11.5/8.11.5) id h3KGmis88401; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 12:48:44 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from timothyk@wallnet.com) Received: from 10.0.1.9 (mts-113.wallnet.com [208.225.162.45]) by serv1.wallnet.com (8.11.5/8.11.5av) with ESMTP id h3KGmbM88383; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 12:48:37 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from timothyk@wallnet.com) From: Tim Kellers To: Adam , Andy Harrison Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2003 12:48:18 -0400 User-Agent: KMail/1.5.1 References: <1050783356.32991.0.camel@jake> In-Reply-To: <1050783356.32991.0.camel@jake> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200304201248.18325.timothyk@wallnet.com> X-Virus-Scanned: by AMaViS perl-11 cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: multi-aterm?

No. The load averages represent the number of processes in the run queue (i.e., the number of processes that are ready to run, but must wait for CPU time). Load averages > 1.00 are normal. I haven't seen this discussion on here for awhile, so I'll explain further. Load averages are only loosely correlated with system performance. It is possible to have relatively high load averages, and still have a very responsive system. It is also possible to have load averages below 0.50 on a disk-bound machine, and have an unusable machine. (I've seen both). It is also possible to inadvertently write a fork bomb (in Perl) and watch them peak at about 600, and still manage to obtain a sort-of-responsive root login to kill all of the processes. (Uh.. I've *never* seen that happen). Again, load average is a function of the number of processes waiting for CPU time. *Not* of actual CPU utilization (which will often be quite a bit lower than 100%), or of overall resource utilization (disk, net, etc.) Use load averages for only a very rough sanity check. - Ryan -- Ryan Thompson SaskNow Technologies - http://www.sasknow.com 901-1st Avenue North - Saskatoon, SK - S7K 1Y4 Tel: 306-664-3600 Fax: 306-244-7037 Saskatoon Toll-Free: 877-727-5669 (877-SASKNOW) North America From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Apr 20 10:10:59 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 926CD37B404 for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 10:10:59 -0700 (PDT) Received: from simmts3-srv.bellnexxia.net (simmts3-srv.bellnexxia.net [206.47.199.12]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 103CB43FB1 for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 10:10:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from efdeguzman@sympatico.ca) Received: from Computer3 ([64.229.117.199]) by simmts7-srv.bellnexxia.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20030420171047.XVRM8530.simmts7-srv.bellnexxia.net@Computer3> for ; Sun, 20 Apr 2003 13:10:47 -0400 Message-ID: <000401c3075f$d12d7290$6401a8c0@Computer3> From: "Ed" To: Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2003 00:19:03 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1106 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.1 Subject: FreeBSD users X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2003 17:11:00 -0000 You listed: http://www.zdnet.com.au/ as a FreeBSD user.

The buildworld -> > installworld -> mergemaster routine seems convenient and stable, > but i don't like doing source compiles on a production machine, > and we don't have budget for a spare with similar architecture. I recommend the build->install->mergemaster process. I've been using it for years on production machines and never gotten bitten. A few hints on "not getting bitten" 1) Subscribe to -STABLE and lurk. You don't have to read every message, but watch for HEADSUPs and subjects that appear to pertain to you. 2) Always read /usr/src/UPDATING before starting anything 3) Always do a 'cp -Rp /etc /etc.old' before starting mergemaster. Although mergemaster works very well, it's easy to make a mistake (especially when you're new to it). 4) Follow the handbook to the letter 5) If, at step 21.4.8 in the handbook (where you've got a new kernel installed, but not a new world yet) you can't boot the machine because the new kernel has problems, you can boot kernel.old and then copy kernel.old back to kernel and /modules.old back to /modules and you've effectively reverted to the pre-installkernel state of the machine. (this failsafe should really be in the handbook ... I should really generate some diffs ...) After the first or second time you've done the procedure, it gets pretty routine. I understand your concern about not wanting to build on production machines, but there are a few things to know: 1) If you're tracking the patch tree (i.e. RELENG_4_8 for example) there is very little chance of anything running afoul. 2) I've run builworld/buildkernel on production systems while they were in use without the users even knowing I was doing it, then run the installworld/installkernel/mergemaster after hours (only takes 15-30 minutes in the evening that way) I don't know if I'd recommend running buildworld/buildkernel during business hours (unless it's a very overpowered machine) but the point is: you can get away with it. 3) I've also done upgrades remotely via ssh (off hours) with no problems. This isn't recommended either, but you can get away with it 99% of the time. > (b) Specifically, the machine is currently running 4.6-RELEASE, and > i thought i would upgrade it to 4.8-RELEASE and track that, > since FreeBSD will test its security patches for longer (right?), > so i won't have to upgrade again for awhile.

Depending on the environment: 1) If the machine is unused on weekends, you can easily schedule upgrades as needed. I recommend scheduling an entire weekend (probably won't take that long) to get it up to date with the latest RELENG_4_8 and update that as patches are released. At some point you're going to want to move to RELENG_5, but that's a bit in the future and will present new and different problems. 2) If the machine is used 24/7, you need to find somewhere to get some downtime and keep it relatively current. Plan for sometime in the as-near-as-possible future to upgrade to the latest RELENG_4_6 and plan on staying there until you can schedule a little more time to bring it up to RELENG_4_8. > Can i expect this upgrade to go smoothly? Yes > The machine is running > a lot of third-party software, which i am not going to touch. I think that's a BIG mistake. You need to make a list of third-party apps that the machine uses and put a plan in motion to get them updated as well. A fully-updated FreeBSD machine is little help if you have an app with a known security hole or memory leak that keeps bringing it down. Updating third-part apps is generally much harder than updating FreeBSD itself as there are more things that can go wrong (statically linked programs, dependencies ... etc) Here's my suggestion. 1) Always install from ports 2) Use 'make package' to have a package available for everything you install. That way, if an upgrade fails, you can reinstall the older, working version until you figure out what went wrong. 3) Backup /usr/local/etc and any other directories that your apps might use before upgrading them! 4) Subscribe to bugtraq and any other relevent security mailing lists and make note when things need updated. Schedule and plan as problems arise. Unfortunately, you don't have the liberty of doing 1 and 2 on software that somebody else already installed, so this first upgrade may be tricky. Do lots of research, and testing on another machine to keep it from going to hell. > Are there any particular red flags i should look for in terms > of either (1) going from a sysinstall install to a source > install, Not at all. > or (2) going from 4.6-RELEASE to 4.8-RELEASE?

This will sync all your Evo libraries, and might solve your problem. It will definitely solve the missing library issues. Note, libgmodule-2.0.so.0 is old. The correct, current version is libgmodule-2.0.so.200.

I'm probably not seeing something in front of my face, but I've just spent over an hour on the Jakarta site, trying to find out how to join the mailing list for Jakarta-Tomcat users. I'm having a real tough time getting 4.1 to work with Apache 2.0.45. (both from the ports on FreeBSD 4.8). My initial goal is to simply have a server that will allow me to run JSP pages while leaving my normal Apache web service intact. Such as it is, anyway. Anyway, there is all kinds of great info on the Apache sites about how to behave on the mailing list, but not a single bit of info on how to join it. Does anyone know if such a list even exists? I can't imagine it doesn't, after all, Tomcat is out to release 5. If there is no list, any other suggestions on current, clear, and complete information about setting up Apache 2.0 and Tomcat 4.1 to handle JSP pages would be greatly appreciated.

I uninstalled reinstalled pine and this did nothing. All of the U of Wash's documents state that pine uses c-client's drivers to for the type of action I'm looking for. I uninstalled cclinet (/usr/ports/mail/cclient) and attempted to recompile pine I didn't see pine attempt to look for c-client. Looking in pine's documentation I found the "disable-these-drivers" section that can be entered in the ~./pinerc to turn the mbox function off, but is there a way to directly turn this on? pine -h, googling and searching UW"s website did not turn up any information.

Rehash is part of the csh and tcsh (shells). The shell can't find newly installed software until you run it, or log out/in again, as you did.

Sorry, if you did reply to this question earlier, I'd appreciate if you could do so again. Sorry. Thank you for your patience. My sound doesn't work. I've been searching around google, I've tried different things still no sound. This is some of my info. I have a Sound Blaster Live with Digital Audio Output. I read the handbook, and tried to follow the page about setting up the Sound Card. I added device pcm to my kernel. Then I rebuilt the kernel. Here's my output, and it seems my computer recognizes the device. grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot pcm0: port 0xeec0-0xeedf irq 9 at device 9.0 on pci0 pcm0: Then I ran cd /dev sh MAKEDEV snd0 I cd to my /dev directory and did an ls -la to all the device nodes the handbook says I should have: here's the output. /dev#ls -la audio lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 audio -> audio0 /dev#ls -la dsp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Apr 14 18:03 dsp -> dsp0 /dev#ls -la dspW lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 5 Apr 14 18:03 dspW -> dspW0 /dev#ls -la midi ls: midi: No such file or directory /dev#ls -la mixer lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 mixer -> mixer0 /dev#ls -la music lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 music -> music0 /dev#ls -la sequencer lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 10 Apr 14 18:03 sequencer -> sequencer0 /dev#ls -la pss lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Apr 14 18:03 pss -> pss0 I noticed, it didn't create a midi device node, this might be my problem. I noticed other people had this problem, though I found no solutions for it. Here's some more output, hopefully this helps someone.. I hope I gave enough information, and any suggestions or replies would be appreciated. cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0xeec0 irq 9 (4p/2r/0v channels duplex) dmesg cal[2831]: fatal: open database /etc/aliases.db: No such file or directory Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `bufdaemon' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...stopped syncing disks... 1 done Uptime: 2h36m18s Rebooting...
