I don't have much experience with FreeBSD yet. The only real big thing i have to change is the way some data is fetched. In the Linux version i read in data like the hostname, the domainname, the kernel version etc from /proc. Is there a central point to look for those values in FreeBSD? If not, where do i get those values? I _don't_ want to use external binaries like sysctl etc... Thank you!

It worked, but took an amazing 14 hours, which is only about 1.5 Mb/sec. The 'output' drive was on an IDE connector shared with the CD device, so that may have been a cause of the poor performance. Anyway, read 'man dd'. You can specify very large blocksizes. I suspect it might take very many hours with a blocksize of 512. -- Mike Jeays http://www.jeays.ca From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Dec 2 02:30:17 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C6E5316A417 for ; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 02:30:16 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cyberleo@cyberleo.net) Received: from pizzabox.cyberleo.net (alpha.cyberleo.net [198.145.45.10]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9271513C45B for ; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 02:30:16 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cyberleo@cyberleo.net) Received: (qmail 70478 invoked from network); 2 Dec 2007 02:03:35 -0000 Received: from adsl-76-240-143-74.dsl.chcgil.sbcglobal.net (HELO ?172.16.44.14?)

However, nVidia have already said that due to internal implementation details of the FreeBSD amd64 kernel, they're unable to produce an amd64 driver just yet. There was some discussion of it a while ago - check out the archives for more details and links. I don't recall if it was this list, or amd64@ so try them both.

Disabling APCI does not help either however running in Safe Mode does allow the hard drives and one CDROM (I don't know which one but I think it is the SATA one) to be detected. The computer also has a wireless card that uses the if_ral drive (it is detected). I need to use i386 and not amd64.

The only guide Google pointed me to is this one, who seems a bit outdated : http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/~venkat/tutorial1.html So I tried to follow it, making all the changes I could figure out. First, I installed mail/cyrus-imapd23 instead of mail/cyrus-imapd2. The first issue came when I su'd to the cyrus user and ran mkimap, where I got a permissions problem : chown: ./socket/lmtp: Operation not permitted No big deal, I thought, and just chown'ed /var/imap/socket/ltmp to cyrus as root. Everything else went fine, or at least seemed to, until I created the password for cyrus using saslpasswd2. No error message, but this apppears in my auth.log : saslpasswd2: sql_select option missing saslpasswd2: auxpropfunc error no mechanism available And then, when I try to login using the command described in the guide, I get : Please enter your password: C: L01 LOGIN cyrus {1} S: L01 NO Login only available under a layer Authentication failed. generic failure Security strength factor: 0 And the same thing than before in my auth.log : imap[53980]: sql_select option missing imap[53980]: auxpropfunc error no mechanism available Any help to solve this would be greatly appreciated.

I've rebooted the system with nextboot -k mynewkernel which was stored under /boot/mynewkernel. After moving mynewkernel to /boot/kernel and rebooting again freebsd-update works just fine. I could update 6.2-RELEASE-p9 without any problems. freebsd-update has also chosen the right SMP kernel now and installed the new version.

Type /sbin/mount, /sbin/fsck, /sbin/reboot and so on, and it does work. Never tried using an setenv PATH /bin:/sbin:usr/bin:/usr/sbin(etc) in single user mode, but I reckon it works. Also note that vi doesn't work by default as it needs to write to /tmp. So mount /tmp or re-mount / to RW permissions.

I found a Linux emulation app, one that installed libs, that put it's libs into /usr/local/lib, and I guess I wanted some more data, but I went ahead, moved them to a place that seemed good to me under /compat/linux (I hafe a Gentoo system, I know that Linux premendously abuses their /usr/bin and /usr/llib, to stick their packages into, mixing their OS and user stuff completely. Anyhow, I moved the libs, used the linux ldconfig, and now the libs user's work fine. That was a couple of weeks ago. I wanted to know enough to determine if it was worth a PR on this. It seems to me that a whole lot of various ports put things where they don't belong, because LOCALBASE and X11BASE seem to be disregarded by some ports also. I found a font port that used a search of pkgconfig files to figure out where to install to, and I couldn't fix it. I personally don't care for the fact that X11 ports now all install into /usr/local, and I found that no amount of manipulation of LOCALBASE or X11BASE fixes this. I just gave up and installed (unwillingly) to /usr/local. At least, it's not like Linux, which does largely without any /usr/local. That much makes separating system and packages for Linux just about impossible.

It did not work on a special usb-hub on my system. Connecting it to another hub, I was able to access the device and load data to it. The only irregularity was that on connecting the device not only standard /dev/da0 and /dev/da0s1 were created, but also two "dummy" devices/dev/da0s2 and /dev/da1. But that made no problem in mounting /dev/da0s1 as usually using mount_msdosfs. Today I wanted to mount the device again and it fails now on any usb-port, always sending the same error message to dmesg. uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 5 uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 7 uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 6 uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 5 uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 1 uhub2: device problem (INVAL), disabling port 1 (I tried connecting to various ports) After various reconnects, I was able to get the device mounted again, resulting in dmesg as follows: umass0: on uhub2 da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da0: 40.000MB/s transfers da0: 1917MB (3926016 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 244C) da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 1 da1: Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da1: 40.000MB/s transfers da1: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE.

I have googled and searched the archives, but the error message seem to be related to various different problems.

I'm trying to build a snapshot of FreeBSD make(1) which builds with autoconf, for other stuff, but it may take a while before I have a fully autoconf-ified version and that may still not be adequate. You can always try booting a FreeBSD snapshot inside vmware or qemu, and build FreeBSD from FreeBSD, but that may be a bit slow...

I run a web hosting company, and one of the most often asked question is whether we have a control panel, to which we generally say no ... recently, a new client signed up and looked to install Plesk on his VPS, but has been unable to get it to work ... Being curious myself, I've downloaded both 8.2.1 and 8.1.1, and find that neither of them appear to install properly, but I can't seem to find any reasons *why* ... for instance, 8.1.1 just finished installing with: Installation done. Notice: make.conf was restored from previous autoinstaller's backup. But there is no /usr/local/etc/rc.d/psa.sh to stop / start the server, and no psa-* related ports installed ... as if it installed all the dependencies, but not the components themselves ... If I try and go into /usr/ports/swsoft/psa and do 'make install', it fails as the installer installed both apache2.0 and apache2.2, causing a conflict ... I have tried both 8.2.1 and 8.1.1, and get the same results ... One response I got on the -isp list was to pay Plesk to install it, so I figured I'd range out a bit onto -questions and see if anyone has been able to successfully install Plesk *without* deferring it to SWSoft themselves to do it ... ? - ---- Marc G.

Debian has a package 'freebsd5-buildutils', which includes a version of make that runs on GNU/Linux. I used it for a while when I was too lazy to port some makefiles to GNU make. I don't know, however, if it'll build more recent versions of FreeBSD than 5.x.

I have tried the following and receive an error: [jeremy@icipher ~]$ mkisofs -dvd-video -o ~/develip.iso -R ~/develop_spin/ Using PSA07000.VOB;1 for /PSA074781-2.VOB (PSA074781-1.VOB) mkisofs: Unable to make a DVD-Video image. [jeremy@icipher ~]$ I searched google and did not find much of information. I read several articles about the case of the file names, but my files are uppercase as they suggested. I can create iso's without the -dvd-video switch, but not with. I also saw a suggestion to use the development version of cdrtools, but I get the same results. Any suggestions are much appreciated. thanks, Jeremy From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 3 03:16:12 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB92516A418 for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 03:16:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tony@tntpro.net) Received: from ms-smtp-01.nyroc.rr.com (ms-smtp-01.nyroc.rr.com [24.24.2.55]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C3D4213C458 for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 03:16:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tony@tntpro.net) Received: from tntpro.com (cpe-204-210-86-53.maine.res.rr.com [204.210.86.53]) by ms-smtp-01.nyroc.rr.com (8.13.6/8.13.6) with ESMTP id lB33G8Gd000010 for ; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 22:16:09 -0500 (EST) Received: from outkast (outkast.tntpro.com [192.168.0.10]) by tntpro.com (8.14.2/8.13.6) with ESMTP id lB33G8px000672 for ; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 22:16:08 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from tony@tntpro.net) From: "Tony" To: Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2007 22:16:08 -0500 Message-ID: <000f01c8355a$d9505b30$f300a8c0@outkast> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook, Build 10.0.2616 In-Reply-To: <000001c83552$f3e0de50$f300a8c0@outkast> Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.3198 X-Virus-Scanned: Symantec AntiVirus Scan Engine Cc: Subject: RE: what driver does the 80960rp use?

And set cranking. :) If you already have DVD compliant VOB, my stuff will not apply. If you don't then this is what you have to do. mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf \ -vf scale=720:576,harddup -srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 \ -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000:\ keyint=15:vstrict=0:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192:aspect=16/9 -ofps 25 \ -o movie.mpg movie.avi Now movie.mpg contains MPEG-2 video befitting the DVD profile. Now just use a simple config file with dvdauthor and write it with growisofs. Something like this perhaps? $ cat foo.xml $ dvdauthor -x foo.xml -o myvideo dvdauthor will create a directory "myvideo" with dvd structure that can be directly given to growisofs or you could create an ISO with mkisofs with the -dvd-video switch. Hope this helps. -Girish From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 3 05:09:41 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 137C816A418 for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 05:09:41 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cyberdog3k@gmail.com) Received: from el-out-1112.google.com (el-out-1112.google.com [209.85.162.179]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DAEB113C459 for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 05:09:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cyberdog3k@gmail.com) Received: by el-out-1112.google.com with SMTP id r27so1234936ele for ; Sun, 02 Dec 2007 21:09:39 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; bh=dMK7htFdNA+rMs2bd+pQTufxCW7L2Z6F+nbJXwq3CuQ=; b=HFspqSVZRg0NTo5x54opssLpY+25P6g50elCVwkaEq2JLi2i70pFmBotmVlwbs4/XI9wPfgDGwS3MLqH/iH+hztdzSjlBcrahaXbd+EdhJqQL0BBH3x/OC/VRDVI5QQsTj+EyKijuzJlZMprvV/5sNd2sHNCMd2h1HFr1wrB8oI= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; b=aU7pAntPz63uxtBpfD3AL4NXlgHyxoklbHiGB5gr4DTCy0jGpKxss3SXQnZV2Zyhd+8MTQLcsjrBZMetV64zjAItgCHemGSp3ee4WpW66m7IUTejqvJuug0jkHzEOsbKmWoLRDSMWNsjfZFOKa7IPNqdb1ykwqReO8TRWkmhiUA= Received: by 10.150.95.20 with SMTP id s20mr1239682ybb.1196657106303; Sun, 02 Dec 2007 20:45:06 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.150.182.11 with HTTP; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 20:45:06 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2007 23:45:06 -0500 From: "Matt LaPlante" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Subject: Installer failing dns lookups.

I recently got the itch to try a new FreeBSD install, and not having a real purpose for the build, I went for some bleeding edge and grabbed 7.0-BETA3-i386-bootonly.iso. I went through the standard graphical install, partitioned disks, selected the package set, and all seemed well. When I came to the network portion, I selected no IPv6 and yes DHCP. DHCP came up correctly from my LAN DHCP server, and I moved on. I picked a mirror that didn't yet have beta3 on it (apparently) and the download failed. I went to try again, but the next mirror I tried wouldn't connect. Pretty soon, the installer was insisting that it can't find any domains via dns, and that I should check the network config. Well sure enough the network settings are right (not surprising considering they'd *just* worked, and I hadn't changed them), my dns server is fine, but the installer won't so much as find ftp.freebsd.org. I figure hey, that's what you get for trying beta software, let's try something a little less radical and maybe it will work. I opt for the 6.3 RC1 bootonly iso next. Wouldn't you know it, same results. If you don't pick a functional mirror on the first try, suddenly the installer forgets how to look up hosts in dns. After rebooting the installer a few times, I manage to confirm that if I get the right combo on the first time through the installer (ftp passive, ftp1.us.freebsd.org worked in this case), things work perfectly. If I do something silly like trying http without a proxy, or picking a mirror that doesn't have the distro or doesn't connect, after one or two cycles dns lookups magically fail and I have to reboot. Sure enough, I went back to my 7B3 disc, and using my winning combo of ftp/passive, ftp1.us, the install works right off the bat. (Note that these combinations are just examples of what works for me, right now. I'm not suggesting that the connection type or the mirror name is somehow responsible for things being broken; it's merely for completeness of story.) So, the essence of this bug report is this: If I fail to begin the installation download on the first couple tries, the installer habitually becomes unable to resolve dns until a reboot is performed. This affects at least 6.3 and 7.0, but could go back much further. - Matt From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 3 06:26:06 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6C9D916A46B for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 06:26:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from smtp102.math.arizona.edu (smtp102.math.arizona.edu [128.196.102.202]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 59CBC13C45A for ; Mon, 3 Dec 2007 06:26:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from Debian-exim by smtp102.math.arizona.edu with local-bsmtp (Exim 4.50) id 1Iz4kf-0001pd-4w for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 02 Dec 2007 23:26:03 -0700 Received: from 71-220-128-214.tcsn.qwest.net ([71.220.128.214] helo=.domain.actdsltmp) by smtp102.math.arizona.edu with esmtpsa (TLS-1.0:DHE_RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA:32) (Exim 4.50) id 1Iz4kE-0001or-Az; Sun, 02 Dec 2007 23:25:30 -0700 Message-ID: <4753A154.70002@math.arizona.edu> Date: Sun, 02 Dec 2007 23:25:24 -0700 From: Predrag Punosevac User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (X11/20070916) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Joshua Isom References: <002b01c8337e$4f891960$25030b0a@OTLMobile> <4046.128.196.102.34.1196455436.squirrel@squirrelmail.math.arizona.edu> <4750f590.nKqGlxroRUg5jfas%perryh@pluto.rain.com> <01de31c5fd551189725d0e5063a40341@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <01de31c5fd551189725d0e5063a40341@gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-ACL-Warn: The HELO/EHLO greeting .domain.actdsltmp is invalid X-Outgoing-Spam-Score: -5.9 (-----) Cc: Steve.Sun@ncc.edu, perryh@pluto.rain.com, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: FreeBSD for Sony Playstation3?

Unfortunately, due to missing toolchain support in newer gcc and binutils versions, NetBSD/playstation2 is a dying port. I anyone would find time to port the EE patches at least to a more modern binutils, this would be very much appreciated.

I'm thinking of the P4 type mabe a dule cord, around $700 to $1000 on ebay. You should easily get a ThinkPad T30/T40 (P4-2.0 GHz/512MB RAM/60GB HDD) on Ebay for about U.S.$350. But there are refurbished and not brand new. Since you mentioned your budget of $700 - $1000, why not just buy a brand new ThinkPad R61i or ThinkPad T61 which comes under $1,000? Of course, FreeBSD is a great OS which can be used on your laptop. In fact, 75% of my servers are based on FreeBSD. But since you mentioned that the primarily use of this laptop will be for gaming purposes, I don't think that FreeBSD is the right OS for this stuff. Of course, I could be wrong because I don't play games on my FreeBSD desktop. But you are free to try the gaming stuff on FreeBSD and provide us the feedback! Anyway, SGT, take good care of yourself out there in Iraq.

You probably already have it. It is included in the disc1 cdrom you've installed from. It's in the src directory. In case you don't have the cdrom available, you can either fetch the source tarballs from: ftp://$freebsdmirror/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/7.0-BETA3/src/ or fetch the whole disc1 cdrom... Replace the $freebsdmirror with your favorite freebsd mirror.

Although its all been pretty much automated now and i dont have to touch it much, from what I remember we install the prerequisites manually (well via yum but not using their installer,) then we go through the needed components and install them individually. SWSofts installer and updater used to break things on a regular basis. If I get a sec I'll have a quick look at the FreeBSD version. Vince > ---- > Marc G.

I have volunteered to undertake a feasibility/pilot project to examine what changes (if any) are needed in the system (for the purposes of this thread I will not venture any of my own suggestions). I have the following broad questions for people: 1. What is more important to your personal use of FreeBSD (the ports system, the underlaying OS, some other aspect)? 2. How frequently do you interact with the ports systems and what is the most common interaction you have with it? 3. What is the single best aspect of the current system? 4. What is the single worst aspect of the current system? 5. If you where a new FreeBSD user how would your answers above change? If you where brand new to UNIX how whould they change? 6. Assuming that there was no additional work on your behalf would you use a new system if it corrected your answer to number 4? 7. Same as question 6 but for your answer on question 3? 8. How long have you used FreeBSD and/or UNIX in general? 9. That is your primary use(s) for your FreeBSD machine(s) (name upto 3)? 10. Assuming there is no functional difference what is your preferred installation method for 3rd party software? 11. On a scale from 1 to 10 (10 being the best) please rate the importance of the following aspects of the ports system? a. User Interface b. Consistency of behaviors and interactions c. Accuracy in dependant port installations d. Internal record keeping e. Granularity's of the port management system 12. Please rate your personal technical skill level? - -- Aryeh M.

Regards Jan Catrysse Synchronisation should not be needed at all, however if you want to do it #1 above is the way. ATA will always return error to the upper layers if one of the writes to either drive fails, and will then mark the array as degraded, so there should be no need to do and sync unless you change one of the drives. If you zero out both drives before creating the RAID1 you can do a simple "cmp adX adY" of the two disks in the mirror to verify they are equal, except for the RAID metadata normally located at the last 63 sectors of the media (depends on meta data format). Note that you *HAVE* to zero out the disks first before use in that case, as ATA has no idea which blocks are used and which are not, and in the case of unused areas you will get differences if the disks wasn't cleared before use. ATA only makes certain that data *written* hits both disks and in case not returns error to the upper layers and marks the array as degraded.

Actually a few points: * Some ports lag behind current versions quite a lot while others are diligently updated as upstream does so. We need more port maintainers for those less-often updated ports. * gcc's performance for C++ is dismal: compiling big ports like Firefox/Thunderbird, JDKs, KDE/Qt, OpenOffice takes AGES, esp. on older and slower hardware. This is particularly painful when those ports undergo only very minor revisions. * portupgrade's/pkgdb requires way too much user-input to fix dependencies etc..; it's not a problem for experienced users, but newbies don't know how to reply to pkgdb's cryptic questions. I wished instructions for portmaster were added to those for portupgrade in /usr/ports/UPDATING more often. * Python ports are not versioned. When multiple versions of Python are installed simultaneously, it should be possible to install py24-* and py25-* ... ports simultaneously too. What I'd really wish to see happen: versioned ports! Say, you need portcategory/foobar-x.y.z for some reason, it would be nice to: # cd /usr/ports/portcategory/foobar # make -DVERSION=x.y.z install clean If at all possible, it would be also great to have multiple versions of the same ports available. We already have that for some selected ports, but it wold be interesting to have a more general solution. Of course, this requires a way to declare one of those versions the "default version" (that would e.g. set symlinks for includes, libs etc from generic to the current version of the selected port). > 8.

It could use some slight tweaks here and there, but overall, it is very usable and I'm quite happy with it, despite its (unavoidable) shortcomings.

That's one of the reasons I would advise you to dump cyrus-imap in favor of Dovecot. Unless of course you have to use cyrus-imap for whatever reason. We've switched from cyrus-imap to dovecot for our small site (~3000+ email accounts) and it's working like a charm. Just thought I'd let you know about an alternative. Now, going back to your cyrus-imap problem. It looks like you don't have any authentication mechanism in place. Have you install cyrus-sasl and cyrus-sasl-saslauthd ? If you haven't then you probably should. That's the way we had it working anyway. Here's my *very* brief notes on the topic: 1-- Install the cyrus-* ports. 2-- Configure sendmail to use SASLAUTH. These are the lines related to cyrus in my /etc/mail/`hostname`.mc file dnl # The AUTH mechanisms. See 24.9.5 as AuthMechanisms. dnl # For information on SASL, see 3.4.48 and these URL: dnl # http://www.iana.org/assignments/sasl-mechanisms dnl # http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/mel/SASL_info.html dnl # TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5')dnl define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5')dnl dnl # confLOCAL_MAILER dnl # Define what is the local MAILER. dnl define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')dnl dnl # MAILER dnl # Setup various mailers. dnl MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl MAILER(`local')dnl MAILER(`smtp')dnl 3 -- Make sure imap without SSL is running from /usr/local/etc/cyrus.conf. For some weird reason, I can't run cyradm over TLS. If you disable imap without SSL, you won't be able to login via cyradm. That was one problem I had and was not able to fix this. So I used pf to block all comms to the imap port unless it's coming from the localhost or the admin machines in our LAN. 4 -- Add the cyrus administrator's user & password. sudo saslpasswd2 cyrus 5 -- Create users. Here you must make sure your /usr/local/etc/imapd.conf has unixhierarchysep set to no (or comment-out). Otherwise you'll run into trouble if you use usernames such as david.robillard (i.e. the dot seperator). sudo su - cyrus cyradm localhost cyradm> cm user.username cyradm> exit # return to user cyrus. 6 -- As the cyrus user, set a password for user username saslpasswd2 username 7 -- Test the setup using IMAP over SSL. imtest -v -a username -u username -s localhost NOTE -- Deleting a Mailbox or Removing a User NOTE: Administrators do not have delete rights on mailboxes by default. So you must give yourself the right to do so before trying to delete the mailbox. sudo su - cyrus cyradmin localhost localhost> sam user.johndoe cyrus all localhost> dm user.johndoe There, that's about what I can tell you about this. Now you have a few changes to do in syslog.conf(5). Here's how I've configured mine (those are the LAST lines in the file) !saslauthd *.* /var/log/saslauthd.log !ctl_cyrusdb *.* /var/log/cyrus.log !cyr_expire *.* /var/log/cyrus.log !master *.* /var/log/cyrus.log !imaps *.* /var/log/cyrus.log !lmtpunix *.* /var/log/cyrus.log !tls_prune *.* /var/log/cyrus.log Then tell newsyslog.conf(5) about these files. /var/log/saslauthd.log 640 5 1024 * J /var/log/cyrus.log 640 5 1024 * J Of course, you must change rc.conf(5) too: cyrus_imapd_enable="YES" # Enable imapd(8). cyrus_imapd_flags="-d" # Flags to imapd program. saslauthd_enable="YES" # Enable saslauthd(8) (or NO). If you need more detailed info, I can send you my cyrus.conf(5) and imap.conf(5) files.

You will have to divide your hard disk. I have successfully been doing that will Partition Magic (7.0) but recently got V 8.0 and found it to be completely inadequate - the CD wouldn't boot correctly it seems to have errors in the scripts and it would not talk to my USB drive which I wanted to divide up - the reason for going to 8.0. So, I am not sure which utility to recommend for dividing the disk. If it is FAT, then a couple of free utilities come with FreeBSD that might work (I haven't tried them), but if it is NTFS, then they will not work and you will need to get something else. Partition Magic 7.0 will work fine, but I don't know where you would get a copy nowdays. There is another utility out there called 'Partition Commander' I haven't used it, but might, after I get my PM 8.0 mess cleared up. So, anyway, I am sure you can make a dual boot, if you can get the disk divided. The handbook instructions work find. You will need to squeeze the current MS-V Primary Partition down to make room and then create another Promary Partition above it to install FreeBSD. Note that what FreeBSD callt "slices" MS called Primary Partitions. There might already be two. HP (and Dell and some others) puts its own small slice (Primary Partition) with diagnostic and maintenance stuff on first and the MS slice (Primary Partition) on second, so FreeBSD might well need to go in to the third slice. No problem. Just remember it is then slice 3, instead of slice 2 - slices are counted 1,2,3,4. Once you get the disk divided, just do a regular install in the new slice you created. It works the same as a single-boot install. ////jerry > > HP Compaq Presario V3000z > RAM - 1.5 GB DDR II 533MHz > NVIDIA Graphics Card 6150 > NVIDIA Chipset motherboard > 80GB Fujitsu HDD > > Thanks in advance > > Cheers > B.Manikandan > UK > > ----------------------------------------- > This communication is for informational purposes only.

Besides FreeBSD, I run Gentoo Linux also, so I ssh'ed over to that system (to june) and asked 'emerge' is make existed. I got 2 hits (that were BSD makes, I actually got abouot 30 hits of various kinds), they were: sys-devel/make NetBSD's make sys-devel/pmake from NetBSD also pmake, that's the root name for our own make. There's nothing in our make that is intrinsically non-portable, but over thje years, step by step (and I mouned everyone, I felt them to be distinct mistakes) various of make's routines were reorganized into libraries that had non-portable parts. This has made out make distinctly non-portable, even though there isn't one single item in it that is iin itself non-portable. Once, for an employer, I ripped all the mini-pieces of code from all those single libs, and constructed one single, portable library, which made our make portable to anything, even Windows. There's no reason is couldn't happen, except that a lot of folks don't care a whit about portability, and like their idea of elegance more. Me, I like standards more. You could still assemble a libmake, it takes time, but it's in itself not all that difficult to do.

There are also some good Linux-based Live CD's that are essentiall Partition Magic clones, one is GParted Live CD and the other is Parted Magic. They are very small iso's that pretty much just have a small window manager and some sort of disk partitioning tool like parted. I have used them to partition disks with great success. Good luck!

We've run bind in a sandbox for some years. After the latest security upgrades to FreeBSD6.2.9, bind refused to start. If I change ownership of /var/named to root:wheel and run named as root, it works fine again. This was kind of a shock and I needed to get bind going in a hurry so I am asking if there is a way to make bind run with the less important user ID when it is not in a jail. I am so glad I tried this on a caching DNS first. Thanks for answers or pointers as to where to read about this change.

Additionally, I find nvidia chipsets to be widely compatible with FreeBSD. You don't mention devices like wireless and ethernet, if you do know the models, you may be able to find if they are supported in the release notes / hardware compatibility of FreeBSD. The graphics card will be no problem with either the nv open source driver or the proprietary Nvidia from ports (or from nvidia directly). About your questions on dual boot, since I have a notebook dual booting (actually triple booting) Vista, FreeBSD and Linux I can give you some hand on information: - The info you have been given about Partition Magic, GParted and PartedMagic should work fine. You could use any of these tools to shrink your Windows Vista partition. Make sure Vista boots after this operation. The new MS loader seems to break rather easily. In the event it does not boot you will need a Vista DVD to boot and select to repair. This sounds more frightening than it really is, it does not happen often and the repair works (automatically). - When installing FreeBSD, when asked about the boot manager select NOT to install it. Do NOT let it touch the MBR. Vista uses a different loader from XP and it will probably fail to boot afterwards. - When installation is finished, you will not be able to boot into FreeBSD, but fear not. Boot into Vista and install the free EasyBCD program: http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 With this, you can add the choice for FreeBSD to your Vista bootloader (a new system called BCD) . It is trivially easy to setup and works extremely well. Hope this helps.

It uses postfix outgoing, and dovecot to manage the Imap server, and finally Seamonkey either locally or from one of my other machines, to read/write my mail, it makes for a very portable mail system, but I am now convinced I have one major bug. It's that I'm getting too darn many duplicate mails. I didn't complain when that happened on all the FreeBSD posts, because we have so daarn many people crossposting, it'd be foolish to try to fix that. BUT I just got dupes on some mail from Usenix, and I know Usenix isn't double posting me. Any idea of any common sort of mail mistake I might have made? Mail isn't my real forte, so I might well have bungled something. Any sort of hint, right or wrong, would help, and especially the wrong ones: I'll run them down anyhow, and during that running down, I often find the real error, so don't think I'll jump upon you for stupid suggestions. The only sort of thing I won't try is suggestions to change the basic method I use: I know Imap *can* be made to work, so I won't switch to using something like popmail, I don't want to pop my mail. Other than that, any suggestion will be checked, believe me.

Thank you for information. It's unfortunate that even though cell phone already has IP connectivity that built-in browser works through it's still necessary to go through dialup/PPP to get this to laptop. I guess I will give it a try too.

I knew there were some others out there now, but haven't had time to go looking. The free ones that come with FreeBSD are OK too except they don't work with NTFS type slices and that is what you get with most new machines nowdays. If you want to keep that NTFS system, then you have to get a utility that will work with it.

Just to narrow down the problem, take a look at the full headers of the duplicate mails and see if the mails are exact copies (i.e. the duplication occurs internally) or are in fact recieved py Postfix twice. Check the mail logs to see what Postfix, Dovecot and whatever else you have in the mix (SpamAssassin? Procmail? Postgrey?) are doing. Also make sure you're not just recieving the extra emails from some address you've set to forward to your normal address.

This is in a Qemu virtual machine, if only because I don't know of any other system which will let me redirect the serial port over a Telnet session. All that being said, I am slightly confused by the stuff I've read on the FreeBSD release process. I know that 7.0 is due to come out soon, if it isn't out already. Am I correct in taking from what I've read that 6.2 will continue to be supported for a while yet? Also, about installing X. I've had an interest in trying to see how well Gnome and Orca perform in FreeBSD. Is there a cannonical way to install X and Gnome? I've heard from monitoring this mailing list that the x11/xorg metaport isn't particularly favored. Would I need a complete X installation for Ghome anyway? Thanks in advance for any advice. All the best, Zack.

In the /var directory there is no dump directory. So solving this I should do the following: hulk# mkdir /var/dump hulk# chown bind:bind /var/dump Is that correct? Whilst I am on the BIND topic, does BIND automatically refreshed the content of a zone. Will it notice that the serial of a loaded zone has been changed and reload it?

Well thats what slaves *are* for. You should look at the 'notify' directive. If you are talking about master, if you change a zone file, no, you have use to rndc reload or restart bind (/etc/rc.d/named restart) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.

What is the single worst aspect of the current system? A toss-up between - inability to cross-build (not entirely fixable by ports, I know, but I'm sure that *some* ports would be buildable with appropriate cross-tools, and there's some chance that that set would include the pieces I'm interested in...) and - library dependencies don't extend to the base system. I've just spent a week un-breaking my GNOME environment after upgrading to 7-STABLE from 6-STABLE (which worked, as did all my existing ports) and then portupgrading (which broke nearly everything, because of the upgraded system libc.so, libz.so and libpthread.so->libthr.so, resulting in applications that depended on both old and new base libraries). A corollary of this is that portupgrade -af is not restartable if something breaks or requires manual intervention, which results in quadratic rebuild time, unless the whole process is managed manually. > 5.

If I were a new UNIX user, I might hope that things would work as they do in MacOS-X, and probably would prefer to use a GUI interface to pre-built packages, rather than the ports system at all.

I then start up screen. And it resizes my windows to 80 characters wide. This doesn't happen on linux. My understanding is this has something to do with the termcap entry and 'WS', but as far as I can tell that isn't being set anywhere. Also the -A option to screen doesn't seem to do anything either.

I have a special place in my heart for Thinkpads. They serve me well. A Thinkpad with Intel wireless and either Intel or NVIDIA graphics should work just fine. At the moment, ATI/AMD graphics can still be a problem, though AMD (new owners of ATI) has recently been working on open source drivers, which may reverse that trend in the future. My Thinkpad R52 works like a charm. T series Thinkpads are basically the big brother of R series Thinkpads, and also work exceedingly well (my favorite laptop of all time was a T24p). If you want to be a little more adventurous, you could always look into an ASUS Eee PC. It's a tiny little laptop that comes with a custom Debian derivative pre-installed. I hear it works beautifully with OpenBSD, which makes me think FreeBSD would probably work on it as well. Of course, if I ever got one, I'd probably just use OpenBSD on it. After all, something that small and (compared to a Thinkpad) limited would probably not be something on which I'd need to run the most demanding mutlimedia applications or something like that. It's also less than $400. My next laptop will almost certainly be another Thinkpad, though. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] MacUser, Nov. 1990: "There comes a time in the history of any project when it becomes necessary to shoot the engineers and begin production."

I recently had trouble with this issue after a change in service providers between my office and some servers, although, IIRC, it was more than just one minute until the disconnect.

Your own message was dup'd to me, and I found out what was wrong. When I got back to my apartment finally, from the extended hospital stay, all of my mail subs to chuckr@freebsd.org had lapsed from non-receipt. I'd lost my old FreeBSD machine, and while I was still pretty disabled, it took me a long while to get the machine and all the smoking hardware back in service, and when I did, I restarted all my old subs, but because I'd lost the machine, all my old ssh keys went up in smoke, and I now couldn't get back into my freebsd.org login (remember I was a committer) so I was forced to restart my mail fromm my own hosts at chuckr.org. Well, somehow, all the old FreeBSD.org subs kicked back in finally (they must occaisonally test forever, because I was laid up about 6 months). So, all I need to do is to single up my subs. Too bad I couldn't get the new mail application to do what the old majordomo would do (give me the list of all lists a particular login name is subscribed to). So.thanks for kicking me into doing that testing.

I got errors in 6.2-STABLE with -j3 in the MAKEFLAGS. Removing -j3 eliminated the errors. Apparently, the dependencies on directory and file creation are not really correct in some cases, so a job in a multi-job make will sometimes try to use a file or directory before it has been created by another job. If you have been running "make buildworld" with -jn, where n is the maximum number of parallel jobs you wish to run, try running it without that option. If you haven't been running it that way, then I apologize for the noise. :-) Note that the above applies to the buildworld target, but parallel (i.e., multi-job) makes are fine for building the kernel and do save some time.

It adds among other columns, the MWCHAN one, which details exactly why a process is stuck in the D state. Anyway, cron does a fork and then a vfork creating a child and a grandchild process. I'm sort of surprised at the amount of code between vfork and exec in the grandchild in /src/usr.sbin/cron/cron/do_command.c . Since process 3 is actually using process 2's address space one must be extremely careful not to modify static variables or change other global state that would affect the parent once it resumes execution, and all the logging, environment-setting, and user-context calls are certain to mess with the parent's state, especially with nss modules in the mix. I'd personally recompile cron with all vforks replaced with fork and see what happens. It couldn't hurt to update to a newer kernel version along the RELENG_6 branch as a test, I guess. Note that your uname will change to 6.3-PRERELEASE, but apart from causing lsof to complain, you should be okay. > /var/log/cron has this entry: > Dec 3 20:16:00 pita /usr/sbin/cron[58384]: (root) CMD (/root/bin/raid-status.sh CRON) > > BUT there is no 'raid-status.sh' stuck in the "ps axw".

Can you tell if raid-status.sh ever ran? i.e. is process 2 stuck at the start of vfork or at the end. BTW, here's a minimal example of the danger of putting code between vfork and exec: #include #include #include int main(void) { int i = 1; switch (vfork()) { case -1: err(1, "vfork failed"); break; case 0: /* child */ i = 2; execl("/usr/bin/true", "true", NULL); _exit(0); break; default: break; } printf("in parent, i is %d\n", i); return 0; } -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 08:34:13 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 815C416A418 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:34:13 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from Cy.Schubert@komquats.com) Received: from pd2mo3so.prod.shaw.ca (idcmail-mo1so.shaw.ca [24.71.223.10]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6BE5B13C458 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:34:13 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from Cy.Schubert@komquats.com) Received: from pd4mr5so.prod.shaw.ca (pd4mr5so-qfe3.prod.shaw.ca [10.0.141.50]) by l-daemon (Sun ONE Messaging Server 6.0 HotFix 1.01 (built Mar 15 2004)) with ESMTP id <0JSI00KUFL10TS50@l-daemon> for questions@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 00:34:12 -0700 (MST) Received: from pn2ml6so.prod.shaw.ca ([10.0.121.150]) by pd4mr5so.prod.shaw.ca (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-7.05 (built Sep 5 2006)) with ESMTP id <0JSI00B2FL10KZ50@pd4mr5so.prod.shaw.ca> for questions@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 00:34:13 -0700 (MST) Received: from spqr.komquats.com ([24.68.216.215]) by l-daemon (Sun ONE Messaging Server 6.0 HotFix 1.01 (built Mar 15 2004)) with ESMTP id <0JSI0000FL10NE50@l-daemon> for questions@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 00:34:12 -0700 (MST) Received: from cwsys.cwsent.com (cwsys [10.1.1.1]) by spqr.komquats.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id A311641116 for ; Mon, 03 Dec 2007 23:34:11 -0800 (PST) Received: from cwsys (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by cwsys.cwsent.com (8.14.2/8.14.2) with ESMTP id lB47YBCU008765 for ; Mon, 03 Dec 2007 23:34:11 -0800 X-URL: http://www.komquats.com/ Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2007 23:34:11 -0800 From: Cy Schubert Sender: Cy.Schubert@komquats.com X-Sender: cy@cwsent.com To: questions@FreeBSD.org Message-id: <200712040734.lB47YBCU008765@cwsys.cwsent.com> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: exmh version 2.7.2 01/07/2005 with nmh-1.2 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-os: FreeBSD Cc: Subject: FreeBSD & GSM Bluetooth Phone X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: Cy Schubert List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 08:34:13 -0000 Could anyone point me in the direction of documentation outlining how to setup a Bluetooth phone for wireless Internet access (when WiFi is unavailable).

Thanks. Depends on the protocol your phone uses to access the net. For PAN connectivity (which is the default Bluetooth way of Internet connectivity), FreeBSD currently doesn't ship with a daemon that implements the server-side of it. I implemented a quick 'n dirty hack implementing the PAN protocol which works fine with my Sony Ericsson (M600i) mobile, but YMMV when getting that to run/work with different phones: http://btpand.beenic.net You'll have to get a mercurial client to check it out, and read the README contained in the archive to get it to run (requires tap support in the kernel and needs you to set up the bridging/routing to get the traffic from the tap device to your local network). -- Heiko Wundram Product & Application Development From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 09:15:29 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 84F7416A419 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 09:15:29 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kaevee@gmail.com) Received: from wa-out-1112.google.com (wa-out-1112.google.com [209.85.146.180]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E5AF13C461 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 09:15:29 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kaevee@gmail.com) Received: by wa-out-1112.google.com with SMTP id k17so6340937waf for ; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 01:15:28 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; bh=fqDNRcRXLVJMkGaRt1H8GLop3JWEAqdtuJFfXFDQgwI=; b=qOOZ0vZJafK+gE+zmwwREiJNjIYu7ZaxAfRMdHpkzlLXg7v6Xm3hmCK2Jh9DMsiUXtOn7xIbEERHNwCyiBAi9eFavRS+DK2jzagFQWorvmXRTHNDYSl5CZYbuGMM+yP2YQRIEkyAO5v/AM7iU7qvedH7ZI2cZtkZzajhVY3h7CA= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=k5DvZuS5AweWGYjGjjTDa01u/pktpWhdGU+zRFLy5EI/4QmC5U7Wq7sDhhq7lYr43x4gymXlfiqvLwp07nP4IQlOvZJqsZ0+5V1AKgIr1Sh5y/Tz2ZhvuDeMTSxt7BQIKBuJ0as9KGTKPLVZOUTrvQ4inzFzEHCRei+GJP0e9ZU= Received: by 10.114.89.1 with SMTP id m1mr463446wab.1196759343597; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 01:09:03 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.114.80.5 with HTTP; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 01:09:03 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 14:39:03 +0530 From: "Venkatesh K" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: Subject: Re: Buildworld problem X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 09:15:29 -0000 I am so sorry. forgot to add details about my system.

I knew there were some others out there now, but haven't had time to go looking. The free ones that come with FreeBSD are OK too except they don't work with NTFS type slices and that is what you get with most new machines nowdays. If you want to keep that NTFS system, then you have to get a utility that will work with it.

I'm trying to set up a TinyBSD mfsroot image with which to upgrade a machine remotely. I've run into a few problems along the way, though. First of all, I cannot seem to get the kernel to use the preloaded mfsroot as the root device as long as the boot disk's /etc/fstab has a root listed. It will always use what's listed in the boot disk's fstab, despite settings in loader.conf. Am I missing something? (rootdev="md0" or "/dev/md0" or "ufs:/dev/md0" or...) Second, gzipped mfsroots seem to be corrupt when loaded, but fine when used uncompressed. Does the loader need special compile or runtime options to properly understand and expand gzipped mfsroots? The mfsroot is a naked UFS filesystem image, without slice table or bsdlabel.

You can generate keepalive packets for every TCP connection between your FreeBSD box and the world using ipfw. A rule like: allow tcp from any to any keep-state will effectively keep all TCP connections alive. Two things: 1) If you are not familiar with ipfw, read the manual before loading the ipfw module. Otherwise, you'll be locked out of your box. 2) I don't know if the above rules fits your security policy. Or the services your FreeBSD box provides. Modify as needed.

I cannot control the brightness under both console and x. I also tried to modify the keyboard section into this(I can't find a exact match so I chose acer_tm_800 & airkey & acer_300 & acer_ferrari4k instead. None of them worked.) Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "AutoRepeat" "200 50" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "acer_tm_800" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Here's the keyboard layout: http://www.xiyuit.com/picture/article/7/6685.jpg I did a lot of search but none of them works. I don't get it. The function keys are working fine before boot menu. Could anybody please tell me how to set the brightness? Thank you very much.

If you care to respond, please CC me directly). =======================CUT================================ > dear list, > > today I've tried a very first installation of 6.2 on the > second disk of an i86 machine which runs windows xp > professional 2002 service pack 2 on disk one. > > initially, I erroneously did _not_ select installation of > the boot manager on the first disk (were windows resides), > but only on the second (the BSD one). > > after the intallation was completed without any apparent > problems I noted my mistake (well, the machine was booting > windows ...) That setup sounds OK if you set the bios to boot the second drive, instead of the first. The FreeBSD boot-manager is very basic, it can only boot a local partition or chainload another drive, which is why you often need a copy on each disk. In your case Windows will chainload directly, since you have a standard MBR on the first drive. Your problem is that the bios is not booting into the drive with manager on it. =======================CUT================================ meanwhile I used the `freesbie' liveCD and booted the machine into FreeBSD this way. I then wrote the MBR with fdisk -B -b /boot/boot0 ad0 fdisk -B -b /boot/boot0 ad1 to both disks. as far as I understand the handbook this seems the only thing necessary to allow correct operation of the boot manager. on reboot (now, of course, without the liveCD...) I now see the boot manager (which previously did'nt show up at all), but the only available option is F1 DOS i.e. the bootmanager seems not to recognize the FreeBSD installed on the second disk. I tried the same (writing boot0 to the MBR) with `boot0cfg' but to no avail. I can mount both disks from within the `freesbie' booted FreeBSD. especially, the second disk (ad1) seems to contain the FreeBSD installation as it should: the whole file tree is there and 4 partitions (ad1s1a, ad1s1d, ad1s1e, ad1s1f) are recognized/mounted. what am I doing wrong? how can I get the bootmanager to recognize the second disk as FreeBSD-bootable? if I can't get the boot manager to allow selection of dos _and_ freebsd, is their a way to enforce exclusive boot from the second disk (not that this would be an ideal solution:-))? thanks in advance joerg From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 13:25:01 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CDB8916A419 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 13:25:01 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cptsalek@gmail.com) Received: from ug-out-1314.google.com (ug-out-1314.google.com [66.249.92.171]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6373F13C447 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 13:25:01 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from cptsalek@gmail.com) Received: by ug-out-1314.google.com with SMTP id y2so108098uge for ; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 05:25:00 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; bh=ZoLOfrziwB/pqS1oHTb7xfVkHaEtPki6ZcmjNeKaZ28=; b=QYku/hsyz+rqBL4kJ1jL3YJz7uCW3nZ0wlGb724aJy4mCAW5QnKqL5pzvSrF66KAL0z3HKIxOPgA+5jhaUJx2XbUjdfDVW/G0JoUJ8AM7sq3sVyV6GhtdGPu7BlBfJdfXGe0n/GZ5MRMcJMAlR+9ztt96Yn8cH8plP7OJEvKpkM= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=sxWFbtrKBe7qf6TQpkgaUPCzCEDqU97fkROiSLpFNtvom3unv5S3q7anNH2xhqT7N5ioKpB+C0c6+RGqQtY5IFyuPdmG2FcaY3R+VosJoaTIIBO3hv59H/V27thUGLuENGyaPusOO72lv9OuKk39h78vp/ilKjrtSuvA/xFQVOY= Received: by 10.150.229.16 with SMTP id b16mr149968ybh.1196772961243; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 04:56:01 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.151.85.17 with HTTP; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 04:56:01 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <14989d6e0712040456r4e3417b5lc06e71a3cf8edd84@mail.gmail.com> Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 13:56:01 +0100 From: "Christian Walther" To: "Cy Schubert" In-Reply-To: <200712040734.lB47YBCU008765@cwsys.cwsent.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <200712040734.lB47YBCU008765@cwsys.cwsent.com> Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: FreeBSD & GSM Bluetooth Phone X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 13:25:01 -0000 Hi there, On 04/12/2007, Cy Schubert wrote: > Could anyone point me in the direction of documentation outlining how to > setup a Bluetooth phone for wireless Internet access (when WiFi is > unavailable).

You can generate keepalive packets for every TCP connection between your FreeBSD box and the world using ipfw. A rule like: allow tcp from any to any keep-state will effectively keep all TCP connections alive. Two things: 1) If you are not familiar with ipfw, read the manual before loading the ipfw module. Otherwise, you'll be locked out of your box. 2) I don't know if the above rules fits your security policy. Or the services your FreeBSD box provides. Modify as needed.

I use FreeBSD 6.2 I want to try use gmirror to constract raid5, so I do following: # dd if=/dev/zero of=zero0 bs=1024 count=102400 # dd if=/dev/zero of=zero1 bs=1024 count=102400 # dd if=/dev/zero of=zero2 bs=1024 count=102400 # mdcontrol -a -t vnode zero0 # mdcontrol -a -t vnode zero1 # mdcontrol -a -t vnode zero2 # cat /boot/propeller drive b0 device /dev/md0 drive b1 device /dev/md1 drive b2 device /dev/md2 volume propeller plex org raid5 512k sd drive b0 sd drive b1 sd drive b2 # gvinum create /boot/propeller # newfs /dev/gvinum/propeller # mount /dev/gvinum/propeller mountpoint/ This working excellent, but I want to try what can I do if some of the disk crashed? So, I do following: # gvinum rm b2 # mdcontrol -d -u md2 # dd if=/dev/zero of=zero2 bs=1024 count=102400 # mdcontrol -a -t vnode zero2 So, I see files in mountpoint, but what should I do to attach new disk /dev/md2 into raid5? Perhaps I need to use rebuildparity, but I see following line in man gvinum: All subdisks in the plex must be up for a parity check So, how can I up subdisk? # gvinum l 3 drives: D b2 State: down /dev/md2 A: 99/99 MB (100%) D b0 State: up /dev/md0 A: 0/99 MB (0%) D b1 State: up /dev/md1 A: 0/99 MB (0%) 1 volume: V propeller State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 99 MB 1 plex: P propeller.p0 R5 State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 99 MB 2 subdisks: S propeller.p0.s0 State: up D: b0 Size: 99 MB S propeller.p0.s1 State: up D: b1 Size: 99 MB -- Sensory yours, Eugene Minkovskii óÅÎÓÏÒÎÏ ×ÁÛ, å×ÇÅÎÉÊ íÉÎØËÏ×ÓËÉÊ From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 16:12:20 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EAF6B16A480 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:12:20 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kaevee@gmail.com) Received: from wa-out-1112.google.com (wa-out-1112.google.com [209.85.146.178]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BF5E313C4D3 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:12:15 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kaevee@gmail.com) Received: by wa-out-1112.google.com with SMTP id k17so6625902waf for ; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 08:12:15 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; bh=dyLNkmilk50lIGGuL6J/m0nCypPx3s+sLEWBwwBOH9I=; b=f+ku2jh/WfFrtWSDox7zPIY6pS5XXNyDIWs3fmS8ga1Bqvbo6DcycqulxSF9mU0N5ClAtJcir7Pq4EqlKoJxZKO0/2ygxPPzwFJouVIcWrHxlkv4i3/8boJpjMM5DRDstTzTohAwQnRv8PpeAwSmi8glKRG69TEqxlfHOiAOllQ= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=KNU9oi92U33Diyk8bcq32Cb50BQv/tkzQEaXn4ZhbdLMfyi4i0Guwwdi3uRmEFHgjFFWdPiAEbIY0SA6CSuDKOtXHc44Jm47F+ZRBcoY4YqJrk59C08AfmR3viv4QNhl8PQrtCo7eItV7mCYclrqiSe4OHkcD5PBsYkLxCKngE0= Received: by 10.114.80.4 with SMTP id d4mr915335wab.1196784735059; Tue, 04 Dec 2007 08:12:15 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.114.80.5 with HTTP; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:12:15 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 21:42:15 +0530 From: "Venkatesh K" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <475544F4.2080609@riderway.com> Subject: Fwd: Buildworld problem X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 16:12:21 -0000 Thanks for the reply.

I had a somewhat similar problem with Postfix+saslauthd+mysql awhile ago. I fixed it by putting a 'sleep 2' statement in the rc.d file of postfix even though I had a "REQUIRED" statement for 'saslauthd' in postfix. It seemed that saslauthd was not always starting up fast enough for postfix to see it. Perhaps you might try something like that with 'jabberd'. I placed the statement immediately after 'KEYWORD'. -- Gerard From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 16:29:40 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C947716A420 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:29:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sarvi@cisco.com) Received: from sj-iport-3.cisco.com (sj-iport-3-in.cisco.com [171.71.176.72]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A1D5F13C45D for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:29:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sarvi@cisco.com) Received: from sj-dkim-3.cisco.com ([171.71.179.195]) by sj-iport-3.cisco.com with ESMTP; 04 Dec 2007 08:29:39 -0800 Received: from sj-core-4.cisco.com (sj-core-4.cisco.com [171.68.223.138]) by sj-dkim-3.cisco.com (8.12.11/8.12.11) with ESMTP id lB4GTcdH017832; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:29:38 -0800 Received: from xbh-sjc-231.amer.cisco.com (xbh-sjc-231.cisco.com [128.107.191.100]) by sj-core-4.cisco.com (8.12.10/8.12.6) with ESMTP id lB4GTSnr011125; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:29:33 GMT Received: from xmb-sjc-229.amer.cisco.com ([128.107.191.122]) by xbh-sjc-231.amer.cisco.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.1830); Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:29:23 -0800 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5 Content-class: urn:content-classes:message MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 08:29:14 -0800 Message-ID: In-Reply-To: <20071203110138.GB7998@kobe.laptop> X-MS-Has-Attach: X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: Thread-Topic: FreeBSD make on other platforms [was: Re: Building FreeBSD onLinux] Thread-Index: Acg1m/1FuGLVzJOOQ5and2TItMeT5wA9ituA References: <86d4touuf6.fsf@Llea.celt.neu> <20071203110138.GB7998@kobe.laptop> From: "Saravanan Shanmugham (sarvi)" To: "Giorgos Keramidas" , "Micha?l Gr?newald" X-OriginalArrivalTime: 04 Dec 2007 16:29:23.0846 (UTC) FILETIME=[D481CA60:01C83692] DKIM-Signature: v=0.5; a=rsa-sha256; q=dns/txt; l=2115; t=1196785778; x=1197649778; c=relaxed/simple; s=sjdkim3002; h=Content-Type:From:Subject:Content-Transfer-Encoding:MIME-Version; d=cisco.com; i=sarvi@cisco.com; z=From:=20=22Saravanan=20Shanmugham=20(sarvi)=22=20 |Subject:=20RE=3A=20FreeBSD=20make=20on=20other=20platforms=20[was=3A=20R e=3A=20Building=20FreeBSD=20onLinux] |Sender:=20; bh=Vttzt4e52d+XD9GD7TGA7I0fuNGzYVW3D4rcKz47Ey0=; b=Hn7A+8n/OQpgmMxEblypkpSCjXovR/v3eS0x/2/pTLV8vJLA+PUWfiEi6pe0khbmw+AzqicT ZEquhfZT2TOwWP+JAkttjK4HvXpYY/iBuXOk9qniQo6ykpB79OeE5dj+; Authentication-Results: sj-dkim-3; header.From=sarvi@cisco.com; dkim=pass (s ig from cisco.com/sjdkim3002 verified; ); Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: RE: FreeBSD make on other platforms [was: Re: Building FreeBSD onLinux] X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 16:29:41 -0000 Hi Giorgos, The build failed for me 'with a syntax error before "__dead2" '.=20 Are there any special include files I am supposed to have?

The project is in its 'prenatal' stage yet, but I'm trying to move a bit faster towards a buildable source tree on Linux. As Philip notes: On 2007-12-04 11:33, "Philip M. Gollucci" wrote: > __dead2 is a custom gcc modification. It just means the function > doesn't return IIRC. There's still a fair amount of work to make the source tree buildable on non-FreeBSD platforms. One of the next steps should be to make these FreeBSD-specific bits (mostly stuff from src/sys/sys/cdefs.h) available outside of the full FreeBSD src/ tree too. Happily, the FreeBSD source is BSD-licensed, so I can import parts of it to the bmake source tree easily :) From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 17:05:28 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 14C1F16A418 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 17:05:28 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from a@jenisch.at) Received: from srvdmz13.oekb.co.at (srvdmz13.oekb.co.at [143.245.5.103]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6C45213C469 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 17:05:27 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from a@jenisch.at) Received: from msc01-n1 [143.245.2.187] by srvdmz13.oekb.co.at - SurfControl E-mail Filter (6.0.0); Tue, 04 Dec 2007 18:05:26 +0100 Received: from aurora.oekb.co.at ([143.245.9.16]) by MAIL1.oekb.co.at with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.3959); Tue, 4 Dec 2007 18:05:26 +0100 Received: from aurora.oekb.co.at (localhost.oekb.co.at [127.0.0.1]) by aurora.oekb.co.at (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id lB4H5Pf7003604 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 18:05:25 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from a@jenisch.at) Received: (from ej@localhost) by aurora.oekb.co.at (8.13.8/8.13.8/Submit) id lB4H5P9U003603 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 18:05:25 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from a@jenisch.at) X-Authentication-Warning: aurora.oekb.co.at: ej set sender to a@jenisch.at using -f Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 18:05:25 +0100 From: Ewald Jenisch To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20071204170525.GA3577@aurora.oekb.co.at> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.2i X-OriginalArrivalTime: 04 Dec 2007 17:05:26.0352 (UTC) FILETIME=[DD760500:01C83697] X-SEF-ZeroHour-RefID: fgs=0 X-SEF-7853D99-ADF1-478E-8894-213D316B8FFA: 1 X-SEF-Processed: 6_0_0_39__2007_12_04_18_05_26 Subject: make buildworld (6-STABLE) -> stop in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb/gdbserver X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 17:05:28 -0000 Hi, After cvsup-ing one of my 6-STABLE machines, cleaning up /usr/obj I started the usual build process with "make buildworld".

My source: "Letter to the US Department of Commerce on Exporting Linux to Iraq" http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7318 FreeBSD like Linux should fall into the same category for exporting publically available software that contains some security features that use encryption. Your best bet is to ask the Toshiba lawyers: "I'm exporting publically available software that contains some security features that use encryption, what's the ECCN? It should be the same as Linux." Failing that, your next best bet is to e-mail the US Department of Commerce for a definitive answer. >From what I can understand, they are the people who deal with ECCNs. HTH.

What exactly does this do? It worked. I first tried adding 'sleep 2' to the script as suggested in another reply. I thought that would work, but it did not. thanks to all who replied.

Check out the manual for rcorder(8), and look at the CAPITALISED files in /etc/rc.d.=20 Essentially, LOGIN is a dummy service - it is used to control startup=20 of services that should start late in the boot process. The jabberd control script told rcorder(8) that it should run *before* the LOGIN service, but the MySQL control script tells rcorder(8) that it wants to run *after* the LOGIN service. So although you had REQUIRE: mysql in jabberd's script, it was still getting run before MySQL. I guess. ;-) You can determine what order things get run by doing # rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* Anyway, glad it worked. You might want to get in touch with the jabberd maintainer and see if he is willing to make the change permanent.

I had gone to the ##freebsd channel on Freenode for help and had been told to run # rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* This showed that I had succeeded in getting jabber to start after mysql, but things were still not working properly.

You can download it and run it without any installation. If you're that locked down that you can't do any of those things, I'd suggest you get a laptop or other way to manage this remotely. What good is a text editor if you can't restart daemons or HUP them?

It was running 6-STABLE, but rather than buildworld etc. I opted for a fresh install from CD (subsequently updated to catch the security notification). It's a cheap Dell Inspiron and doesn't come with wireless, so I use an Asus WL-167g USB adaptor, which is supported natively by the ural driver. This line from rc.conf would initialise the network on 6-STABLE: ifconfig_ural0="inet 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid ???? channel 11 wepmode on wepkey 1:0x?????????????????????????? deftxkey 1" I have the router set to use WEP (ural didn't support WPA in 6-*) and not to broadcast the ssid. After installing 7.0 it took over an hour of experimenting to get the network back up. I eventually had ifconfig showing all the correct setting, but still failing to associate. After much fiddling I set the router to broadcast the ssid and changed the ifconfig line to: ifconfig_ural0="inet 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid ???? bssid 00:14:bf:94:1e:75 channel 11 wepmode on wepkey 0x?????????????????????????? deftxkey 1" I found that if I didn't put the options in just the right order, it wouldn't pick up the right settings. Can anyone shed any light on what I did wrong? Or how I can get 7.0 to connect without having to broadcast my ssid to the world? Thanks for your help. Peter Harrison.

That is the most standard plain text editor unless you want to go even further down to sed(1). You would just ssh in (maybe using PuTTY if all you can get on is a Microsloth box), log in as you and then su to root and edit files directly. ////jerry > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 4 20:42:00 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 282F316A418 for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 20:42:00 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jerrymc@gizmo.acns.msu.edu) Received: from gizmo.acns.msu.edu (gizmo.acns.msu.edu [35.8.1.43]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DC8E313C4CC for ; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 20:41:59 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jerrymc@gizmo.acns.msu.edu) Received: from gizmo.acns.msu.edu (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by gizmo.acns.msu.edu (8.13.6/8.13.6) with ESMTP id lB4KbFHA013753; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 15:37:15 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jerrymc@gizmo.acns.msu.edu) Received: (from jerrymc@localhost) by gizmo.acns.msu.edu (8.13.6/8.13.6/Submit) id lB4KbF9e013752; Tue, 4 Dec 2007 15:37:15 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jerrymc) Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2007 15:37:15 -0500 From: Jerry McAllister To: David Banning Message-ID: <20071204203715.GB13691@gizmo.acns.msu.edu> References: <20071204191130.GA86443@skytracker.ca> <8d23ec860712041133s3b0ccc4fo452f21089c8bcec6@mail.gmail.com> <20071204200911.GA88299@skytracker.ca> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20071204200911.GA88299@skytracker.ca> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.2i Cc: questions@freebsd.org, Schiz0 Subject: Re: looking for online text editor X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 20:42:00 -0000 On Tue, Dec 04, 2007 at 03:09:11PM -0500, David Banning wrote: > > > mindterm-ssh.

Putty is pretty much standalone executable, at least the one for Windows is, you can run it from a thumb drive. If you need a web based application, you can install firefox on a thumb drive as well. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

It is only a file that can be downloaded and put on the desktop and run from there. I have done so in I-cafes, libraries and community centers with public computers, hotel lobbies, churches in many countries. Some place might block it, I suppose, but I haven't run in to any. You can also try running the 'portable' PuTTY from a USB stick as someone has suggested. ////jerry > I can log in to webmin and edit the files via their > file manager.

The only such report I can find now is this discussion of NetBSD's CGD, where its author contrasts it with GBDE: http://www.onlamp.com/lpt/a/6384 Is this still the case? Are there any other security concerns related to GBDE's implementation that you might mention? How well does GELI stack up against GBDE?

I am also facing similar problem and you will find more details if you go through the thread. It seems gdb Makefile is the culprit. Right now I have commented out build of gdbserver and "buildworld" is running. Let's wait and see if someone fixes this in source tree.

In text mode on PC hardware, the mouse pointer has to be mapped to a character in order to show "fancy" pointer.

Just looking for general methods. On a couple of our IDS systems there are sporadic hangs or freezes that occur every couple weeks or so, that are recoverable by either system reboots or taking out and reinserting the Gig fiber ethernet sniffing cables, but I never can find anything in /var/logs/messages to tell what is going on. I'm assuming that may have to compile in kernel debugger support, but from what I read briefly, doesn't that require an actual crash with the resultant reboot and a debugger readable file left in /var/crash? That doesn't happen, there is no automatic reboot just a freeze/hang (box falls off network and at the console unable to type until one of the two above mentioned measures are take. The systems are: Dell 1850's Free BSD 6.2 2 Gb ram running various open source IDS software BRO Thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/What-is-best-method-to-debug-freezes-hangs--tf4947151.html#a14164268 Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I think it's actually saying that GBDE assumes the user will provide enough user-key entropy, and doesn't do anything to mitigate the use of weaker passphrases. Geli uses salt and PKCS #5 so it's pretty much blameless in this area.

Not necessarily. When you go to the download site for putty and click on the .exe (), Windows will ask you whether you want to download the program or run it. Tell Windows to run it. It may give you the odd warning but eventually it should start up a putty window. (It's possible even this can be locked down tight on a Windows box - but usually it isn't blocked).

I'm used to always running "tar -zxfv file.tar.gz", but this time I had to run (I think) like "tar z" and then "tar xfv" to get it unzipped. In that directory, I then ran "./configure" and then "make all", and I'm hoping someone here might help point me in the right direction. ./configure --prefix=/opt/nagios --enable-command-args --without-ssl make install When I do this, I get an error about "Boutell's GD library is required to compile the statusmap, trends and histogram CGIs. Get it from http://www.boutell.com/gd/, compile it, and use the --with-gd-lib and --with-gd-inc arguments to specify the locations of the GD library and include files." Ok, that's cool. But am I on the right track about how to install this on AIX? Once I installed this GD library and "./configure" with the right parameters, will this work in AIX?

If not, I can take it elseware) It has been a while since I have done this on AIX, but you just need to check the directory structure is going to be correct. Typically I will run configure and check to see what variables are set for the install directories, and possibly set those differently if configure did not find the correct directories or if I need them set differently. Often this may mean moving the install directories to or from the /usr/local area. You may do well to look for pre-compiled binaries for AIX. Also let me remind you that you could gunzip the .gz file first, then just untar the tarball in two steps, rather than doing it in one step. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

I would also run complete diagnostics on the hardware to rule out any hardware issues. You can also gather some information by having a script run top periodically and logging this to a file to see what the system is doing. You can check the last log entry of this file after a freeze/hang to see what was going on. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

I'm not sure if this is helpful, as I dont run FBSD 7 as of yet. Further I'm not very familiar with the topic. But I had a similiar problem with MySQL on 6.2. What helped for me was play with kern.maxdsiz kern.dfldsiz kern.maxssiz in loader.conf.

Is > there no other way except to umount [tmp,usr,var]? You missed lots of ways. The canonical method is dump(8)/restore(8). There are many other methods as well. For rsync, what you missed was probably the "-H" option (i.e., you didn't copy from other filesystems, you just ended up with separate copies of files that were hard linked on the original). Even with rsync, though, you won't get an exact copy. I'd recommend dump for copying filesystems; that's what it's for.

Show us the output that demonstrates this problem. My first guess is that it's not portupgrade that's doing it, but that some port you're upgrading now lists gpg2 as a dependency instead of gpg, which causes the attempted installation.

Just a miner kerkshun here. :-) I'm sure you mean ed(1) - the basic editor. sed is the stream editor. The first Unix system I used [ actaully a very sparse Xenix ] did not have 'vi' and the only text editor was 'ed'. In retropsect it was good as I learned how to use regex's quite early in the game which really helped when I got 'vi'. I use 'vi' for 99% of my work - including news and email - and still have probably only scratched 15% of it's capabilites. The first 'vi' implementations I used were limited to 500KB per instansiaton so I wound up using 'split' to be able to work on large file and then pasted them together later. Things just get better with each passing year.

Then mount the new partition somewhere - example: mkdir /newpart mount /dev/ad1s1a /newpart (presuming new disk is ad1, slice is 1, partition is a) Doesn't hurt to do an fsck on it here before writing to it, but it probably isn't really needed. Then, run the dump/restore cd /newpart dump 0af - / | restore -rf - This will get all of / as you want. The other mountpoints for /tmp, /usr and /var will be copied, but not the contents of those filesystems.

Someone with a lot of time could modify syscons to treat the 256 hardware VGA characters as a "window" onto a larger character space, and dynamically remap them as needed.

I'm in need to replace an old SCSI-RAID5 based server, and I'm thinking about switching to a SAS RAID5. The hardware offers I've had right now are: _ an Intel S3000AHLX based server with a SRCSAS144E controller; _ an Intel S5000PSLSAS based server with an "Activation Key" module (to get SAS RAID5). Any info on driver support? Right now I'm using 6.1/amd64, but can easily upgrade to 6.2 (or even better if needed). bye & Thanks av. P.S.1 Should this belong to freebsd-scsi? P.S.2 OT: anyone know if I can plug a Tekram DC-315U into a PCI-X slot? P.S.3 Both boards feature two Intel Pro/1000 NICs. Do they work well with FreeBSD?

The nice thing about rsync is that it's network aware. Can dump dump a file system across a network?

Figured the only way was to use rsync. You just name the file using the -f parameter. In this case, use the -f, but specify the file as - and it uses STDOUT/STDIN. By the way, dump/restore will work over the net; just pipe it via ssh. When I have done that, it has seemed to be somewhat of a resource hog while it was going. But it worked. ////jerry > > Steve From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Dec 5 17:34:57 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C055816A41A for ; Wed, 5 Dec 2007 17:34:57 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from costin.alupului@gmail.com) Received: from nf-out-0910.google.com (nf-out-0910.google.com [64.233.182.187]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D95C13C467 for ; Wed, 5 Dec 2007 17:34:56 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from costin.alupului@gmail.com) Received: by nf-out-0910.google.com with SMTP id b2so3273759nfb for ; Wed, 05 Dec 2007 09:34:55 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:from:to:subject:date:mime-version:content-type:x-mailer:thread-index:content-language:message-id; bh=nHbwaoMxA6Ha8Y6G5GXyRLC+LDxxEXQX0exciXDNFfY=; b=NqI+gHrBy5r4266mOuKShbR9Pc3PWfvgu88NUCiAsOuNxJ1nuvLKowmqqmp4y8QL5879FqkdU7DoIGkbJ7t06+9NnYP8C+eE3hfbmiWTiwLnTUHcOvRAUsC9MQdR2/Z/kTebhATHwPdVBZQELxUtFNqMNgNt5EHvD6pK5NgHe9U= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=received:from:to:subject:date:mime-version:content-type:x-mailer:thread-index:content-language:message-id; b=iMukuJgsQvUj9eQEy4GAYLrftr6sSdTd3fM+EyiPr85aT63WPeAnKnm7ox9yFm32u/ft0Fg0qE4E5IJEkqfVDmE5iNojYJP+jg9881Q62CB3u4QhnsgKG7mjci58R9z7SthHx5t3mEIOcoG1pzcCev4hZdOI+p7a6Qa60vVCWxk= Received: by 10.86.30.9 with SMTP id d9mr716931fgd.1196876095595; Wed, 05 Dec 2007 09:34:55 -0800 (PST) Received: from Costin ( [91.200.96.2]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id d13sm132184fka.2007.12.05.09.34.53 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Wed, 05 Dec 2007 09:34:54 -0800 (PST) From: "Costin Alupului" To: Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2007 19:34:30 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Microsoft Office Outlook 12.0 Thread-Index: Acg3ZRWYnHP0QB6ETi6SIVP1KZiTRg== Content-Language: ro Message-ID: <4756e13e.0d375e0a.1925.1173@mx.google.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Subject: PF, ALTQ queues and keeping state X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Dec 2007 17:34:57 -0000 Hello all, I have a problem and I can't seem to find a solution to it by just goggling; so maybe you can help me. I am trying to set up a traffic shaper using pf and altq with hfsc queues. Actually I did set that up about a year ago and it worked perfectly. But lately the number of clients increased dramatically and I had to switch to statefull inspection because otherwise there would be just too many rules to check for every packet that passed the ruleset. Problem is: when I add "keep state" to the rules that assign traffic to the queues, traffic goes in the default queue instead. Here is an example of queue assignment that I tried to use (em2 is facing the clients, vlan0 is facing the Internet): pass out quick on vlan0 from $client1 to any keep state queue ul_client1 pass out quick on em2 from any to $client1 keep state queue dl_client1 pass in quick on vlan0 from any to $client1 keep state pass in quick on em2 from $client1 to any keep state Well, you can imagine that this is just a test set-up; actually the idea would be to have just one rule for passing traffic inbound on each interface. I have read in some article that I should assign traffic when passing in on an interface if I am to use statefull inspection and I would like to mention that I have tried that already. I have tried even to assign traffic to upload and download queues on the same interface (I.E.: in on em2 = upload, out on em2 = download). Finally I tried something desperate like: pass out quick on vlan0 from $client1 to any keep state queue ul_client1 pass out quick on em2 from any to $client1 keep state queue dl_client1 pass in quick on vlan0 from any to $client1 keep state queue dl_client1 pass in quick on em2 from $client1 to any keep state queue ul_client1 Thing is, of course, that didn't work either. I always heard that one should assign traffic to queues on the outbound rules, but I found a link somewhere on the OpenBSD faq that stated that in fact I can assign traffic wherever I like, given that I declare ALTQ on the right interface. But nowhere did they say that I can't use keep state when assigning traffic to the queues. All is Ok if I just loose the "keep state" from the rules, so that is the reason why I didn't include the altq and queue declarations (those are really ok). Does anyone know what is the workaround this? Because really without statefull inspection my machine is simply beaten; there are about 2000 queues and the traffic throughput is around 10kpps. If anyone has a better idea I would be extremely grateful.

Yesterday mounting my NTFS partition wouldn't work. I have 2 partitions on xp, C and D, which are ad12s1 and ad12s2. I can mount ad12s1 fine, but the other one doesn't work (it was fine couple days ago): deimos# mount_ntfs /dev/ad12s2 /mnt/win mount_ntfs: /dev/ad12s2: Invalid argument Searching around led me to this site: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/mount_ntfs.8.html Where they say: "If the attempt to mount NTFS gives you an error like this: # mount -t ntfs /dev/wd0k /mnt mount_ntfs: /dev/wd0k on /mnt: Invalid argument make sure that appropriate partition has correct entry in the disk label, particularly that the partition offset is correct. If the NTFS partition is the first partition on the disk, the offset should be '63' on i386 (see disklabel(8)). mbrlabel(8) could help you to set up the disk label correctly." That doesn't help me much though. fdisk says it does indeed start at offset 63. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Regards, Ghirai.

As such, I expect to have many more = than 255 CARP interfaces. But, as I understand it, I'm limited to 255 vhid= 's and I have to have a discreet vhid per CARP interface. Is there a way to configure my CARP interfaces such that I can get around t= his limitation? Right now, I configure everything as: ifconfig_carp5=3D"inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.192 vhid 5 advskew 0= pass mypass" ifconfig_carp6=3D"inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.192 vhid 6 advskew 0= pass mypass" and so on. I'm wondering if there is a way to alias IP addresses in the same subnet "i= fconfig_carp5_alias" or something similar. It seems like there is a reuse = mechanism in OpenBSD because you can associate a carpdev to the entry, but = I don't see that in FreeBSD. Regards, Mike -- Michael K.

Is it too early in December for some BSD varieties to report yet? Whatever the answer, PC-BSD has hardly lost more than 2/3 of its users since November, so something is fishy here. In any case, it would be nice to see a DATE somewhere on these pages. Thanks for your efforts, BTW.

The figure for PC-BSD in November was 6551. When I checked earlier this evening, it was 1997. I suppose this does NOT mean that 4554 PC-BSD users have kicked the bucket.

For the fulfillment of this noble mission, it would be better to display statistics for the last complete month to casual visitors. If people want to see running counters, this could be done on a different page.

Actually, what we should do is put a 'History' page off that main one that expands that chart to include the previous two or three months, as well as this one ... would be easier/faster to implement then a graph too ... Antony? Have a couple of minutes to whip that together? Maybe do it similar to the countries page, but instead of listing countries, list month/year? maybe go back 6 months? - ---- Marc G.

Or it could mean that you do not have System-V-style shared memory support configured into your kernel at all. As a temporary workaround, you can try starting the server with a smaller-than-normal number of buffers (shared_buffers). You will eventually want to reconfigure your kernel to increase the allowed shared memory size. You may also see this message when trying to start multiple servers on the same machine, if their total space requested exceeds the kernel limit. ---------------------------- You might look in the FreeBSD GNATS database at bug 77353, and see if the advice there assists you in correction of the problem.

The troll is coming out from under the bridge... First of all, the worst of humanoid units sometimes comes up with valuable quotes; that warrant repeating. By contrast, what most perceive as the "best" of humanoid units seldom utter profound and/or timeless sayings. "The only thing men learn from history, is that men never learn from history." A quote from , someone. If some thin-skinned, limp-wristed, left-handed, intellectual wanna-be's whine about the name "Hitler" on ANY website, then let them whine! Personally, I hardly ever use quotes from Hitler when illustrating points - but that doesn't mean that any of his material wasn't relevant, or isn't relevant today. Usually, I steer toward Nietzsche when looking for applicable quotes for modern times. But then, (and I speak from sad experience with this) the Holy Bible offends nearly everyone these days. Try quoting from the prophet Jeremiah, and see how many people tell you to shut up. Hitler, Jeremiah, Hosea, Amos, Ruckman...it doesn't matter who you quote, or even mention; someone is going to be offended. I say, "Three Cheers" for the FreeBSD team! No Guts, No Glory. All whiners should get some personal counseling, or, like the song says..."GET OVER IT" Dr. Z.

Right now, I configure everything as: carp interfaces are synthetic NICs. You can use more than one IP per carp interface just by adding them as aliases: ifconfig_carp0="vhid 100 pass XXXXXXXXXXXXX 12.34.56.78/24" ifconfig_carp0_alias0="inet 12.34.56.79/32" ifconfig_carp0_alias1="inet 12.34.56.80/32" You should only need as many carp interfaces as there are fail-over pairs of physical servers in your configuration.

I've just built myself a VPN-network for testing bridge STP. I installed 3 FreeBSD boxes (2 FreeBSD-6.2 and 1 FreeBSD-6.1) and connected all of them with OpenVPN with TAP-bridging: * 1st box is OpenVPN server only and has tap0 bridged with its inner interface (192.168.1.1). * 2nd box is OpenVPN client only and has tap0 and tap1 bridged with its inner interface (192.168.2.1). * 3rd box is both OpenVPN client and server and has also bridged tap0, tap1 and its inner interface (192.168.3.1). So now the question is on which interfaces should I enable STP in such setup? I tried enabling it on all interfaces (well, besides the external ones ;) like this: ===== ifconfig bridge0 create addm tap0 stp tap0 addm sk0 stp sk0 addm tap1 stp tap1 up ===== But after doing so, all the interfaces just stay disabled, a'la: ===== bridge0: flags=28143 mtu 1500 ether ac:de:48:46:d3:ef priority 32768 hellotime 2 fwddelay 15 maxage 20 member: tap0 flags=7 port 7 priority 128 path cost 55 disabled member: tap1 flags=7 port 9 priority 128 path cost 55 disabled member: sk0 flags=7 port 1 priority 128 path cost 55 disabled ===== Am I doing smth wrong? -- Silver -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/enabling-if_bridge-STP-tf4954594.html#a14188023 Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

The only thing that is not emphasized enough is that lots of scanners do require firmware (binary blobs) that you have to extract from M$ .cab files. (You will need to use /usr/ports/archievers/cabextract program to do so). You definitely want to look very carefully the list of supported devices http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html before you make a purchase. I do believe that Epson scanners are probably best solutions for Unix/Linux scanning. I use Epson Perfection 1670 and it works like a charm. Unfortunately it does require binary blob which might be something you want to avoid. The another option is to look the list of devices supported by HPLIP drivers. HPLIP drivers enable full functionality of many all-in-one HP products and also HPLIP can unlock some HP flat bad scanners that where problematic in the past. Bottom line is that you have to do your homework. If you need step by step instructions how to install scanner you might contact me via private mail.

The disk is composed of two slices of 2.6 Tb. We are trying to have a (background) fsck of it but few hours later since the start of the check the host get unresponsive: it responds to ping but it doesn't let login anyone, nor by ssh nor by console. In the meanwhile we are having a large rsync from another host. Tonight during the fsck/rsync we had a reboot, without special messages on the console. We have 1Gb of RAM on this server. Is 1Gb too small as memory to have a fsck and a rsync on a server with 5.3Gb as external disk?

Hm, are these FreeBSD boxes you are trying to bridge, on the same ethernet? STP will create a tree by disabling some ports to eliminate loops in the topology.

Plain Text Attachment [ Scan and Save to Computer ] Hi folks, I have sinned:-( I have (for testing purposes) activated geom for mirroring on my freebsd 6.2 via c3 cpu system. However, I used two different brand IDE harddisks but identical in capacity. I have: ad0: 76319MB at ata0-master UDMA100 ad3: 76319MB at ata1-slave UDMA100 At first everything worked, but lately I have noticed some weird things: 1) In the beginning the gmirror status command was showing the complete status for the components ad0 or ad3 (it was altering I guess due to the round robin thing I choose) However since a few weeks, only the ad0 component shows the complete status (the only thing I did in between was removing the seagate harddisk once to try to go to a pc mall and buy a second one but when I returned I just reattached it (I hadn't switched the pc on though in the mean time so I don't think it's an issue)) 2) I started to have problems building the ports and make buildword 3) bash core dumped on my (I couldn't log in nomaly anymore and had to use csh) 4) now I see that rsyncd, freshclam and clamav are core dumping when the machine boots up: GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider ad3 detected. GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider ad3 activated. GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider ad0 activated. GEOM_MIRROR: Device gm0: provider mirror/gm0 launched. Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/mirror/gm0s1a pid 896 (rsync), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) pid 928 (clamd), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) pid 934 (freshclam), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) So I want to bring the machine back to its normal state by doing this: a) remove seagate harddisk b) remove the mirror c) see if everything works fine again because I don't want to reinstall (I CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS RIGHT?) The question is, how di I get rid of the mirror? Or is it better to order a new seagate harddisk, get rid of the maxtor harddisk and install the new seagate harddisk in stead of the maxtor one and rebuild the mirror? Thanks for your kind help *********************** Hi folks, I've bought my new hardware and want to give this another try. On the documentation sacttered around on the net I read that it's better to have 3 harddisks where one is for the main os and the other two are mirrored in stead of a situation where the OS resides on one of the two mirrored disks. Can you give me some advice on this? I have three identical seagate harddisks and want to put two in a mirror setup with the OS on it, and use the other as spare drive, in case sonmething goes wrong.

Actually the final target is to connect all the 3 LANs over VPN, so that they can browse eachother networks etc. When I did it, I could see duplicate packets looping through all bridges, so I thought I'd bring in STP.

That's what it's for, right? Not really, STP must be used/needed in a dynamic environment to eliminate loops. Your environment doesn't seem dynamic to me. You can create a loop-free topology like this: http://users.teledomenet.gr/nvass/topology.png 1) 10.0.0.0/24 is the shared network. 2) bridge1 bridges eth0 and tap0 which is the VPN to the root-bridge. 3) bridge2 bridges eth0 and tap0 which is the VPN to the root-bridge. 4) root-bridge bridges eth0, tap0 and tap1. If you want STP, which you shouldn't normally using this topology, increase root-bridge's priority manually, in order to win the elections and be the root bridge. Note that the external interfaces are not participating in the bridge.

Is all the traffic pass through the root-bridge in this case, so that if bridge1 wants to talk to bridge2, it has to go through root-bridge and not straight? In my case there's a straight connection between bridge1 and bridge2 too, so that they don't have to communicate through root-bridge. -- Silver From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 6 14:05:06 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7E1F616A417; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 14:05:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from nospam@mgedv.net) Received: from mail.mgedv.net (mail.mgedv.net [213.229.1.44]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3A98A13C457; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 14:05:05 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from nospam@mgedv.net) Received: from wzits045 (client.vpn.loop [192.168.177.20]) by mail.my.loop (mgedv) with ESMTP id 5BBEF1C683B; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 14:42:43 +0100 (CET) Message-ID: <006701c8380d$e12ecc50$14b1a8c0@bstandard.lan> From: "no@spam@mgedv.net" To: Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 14:42:44 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.3028 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.3028 Cc: joao.barros@gmail.com, freebsd-usb@freebsd.org Subject: huawei e220 hsdpa on freebsd 6.3-BETA2 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 14:05:06 -0000 hi folks, i've got a huawei e220 hsdpa modem, which is connected to a hp nx8220 notebook (ICH6 usb controller) w. 6.3-BETA2. i tried GENERIC as well as custom kernels. this is my current situation: - custom kernel with just [u,o,e]hci and usb(4) support.

Our setup uses a hot-swap SCSI setup, whereas you're using ATA disks. Keep in mind that, to remove the drives, you'll more than likely need to shut down the system. Have the third drive in there as a back up will certainly buy you time. Follow the how-to I've written at https://www.secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/Gmirror , and simply don't do any configuration on the third drive in the system. When one fails, you'll then remove, or 'forget' the failed drive, and add in the hot-spare you've got in the system.

Yes, they'll have to go through the root-bridge. STP will create a tree by shutting down ports causing loops. That's how STP works. It's all about avoiding loops... Not following the shortest path is not very important for a layer two device. Creating a loop in the topology and bringing the network down because of it, is. > In my case there's a straight connection between bridge1 > and bridge2 too, so that they don't have to communicate through > root-bridge. Yes, but that also can create a loop and according to STP must be eliminated. Perhaps you can use some inventive IP addressing scheme, to force direct communication... some ifconfig option(the edge option?) to force forwarding... a tunnel... or some other weirdness(TM) ;) Nikos From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 6 15:07:22 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 256B116A419 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 15:07:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kpachnis@freemail.gr) Received: from smtp.freemail.gr (smtp.freemail.gr [81.171.104.132]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BABAD13C447 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 15:07:21 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kpachnis@freemail.gr) Received: from ariadni.fantasia.ldn (unknown [88.218.94.139]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by smtp.freemail.gr (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1828133816C; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:48:42 +0200 (EET) Message-ID: <47580BC8.6050205@freemail.gr> Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 16:48:40 +0200 From: Konstantinos Pachnis User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 (X11/20071123) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: jamesh@lanl.gov References: <539c60b90712041638s78b4e40fn67434f2dce5e27e7@mail.gmail.com> <20071205154148.GB21074@gizmo.acns.msu.edu> <1196874620.32615.15.camel@p25dual1.lanl.gov> In-Reply-To: <1196874620.32615.15.camel@p25dual1.lanl.gov> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Jerry McAllister , Steve Franks , User Questions Subject: Re: copying just / (not /tmp, /usr, etc) (rsync -x failed) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 15:07:22 -0000 James Harrison wrote: > On Wed, 2007-12-05 at 10:41 -0500, Jerry McAllister wrote: > >> On Tue, Dec 04, 2007 at 05:38:20PM -0700, Steve Franks wrote: >> >> >>> I have / on one slice, and [usr,tmp,var] on others.

The best and most reliable way of doing that is probably to open the server and look inside to see what is installed (or look at the paperwork from when you originally bought the servers.) When you boot the BIOS will often display this information as well. You could also try the sysutils/dmidecode port which will try to retrieve various information from the BIOS. Beware though that due to buggy BIOSes you cannot always trust this information. If none of the above works, I am afraid you are out of luck, A note for future consideration: When you have remote servers, or servers which must not be shutdown if it can be avoided, then it is a very good idea to write down on a paper exactly what is installed in each of them, at the time they are first installed. This can simplify things quite a bit a couple of years down the line. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 6 16:02:01 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 972F116A473 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:02:01 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mnslinky@gmail.com) Received: from py-out-1112.google.com (py-out-1112.google.com [64.233.166.181]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6545413C447 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:02:00 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mnslinky@gmail.com) Received: by py-out-1112.google.com with SMTP id u77so642346pyb for ; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 08:01:59 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:cc:message-id:from:to:in-reply-to:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:mime-version:subject:date:references:x-mailer; bh=ERNlAX5dZXgBVTjjI8FNuTCEk59t3P/i8tPBGLthEIA=; b=pot99wAz2/9esHhJB3BK0Ss2zdl6QWS6YWn4VATyveWwUMhn4uXOHtSi+cmHGJvLQIWy0dbaP/tlfDKAdUolGbXfVhw0sr/TqzYIg/QdKyyH1T/zQQkZfsij0ZUUOzFv07zNW09+/1doPBXkzQcxmhyKJFA856Evln1/mDuHKTE= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=cc:message-id:from:to:in-reply-to:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:mime-version:subject:date:references:x-mailer; b=OYgOAvcx/rZIPkYV0ML99feL5hagvArABDivDIWYhnSjdwi81+D9+zpwmty4XlaJ5NO7Jzyhqy24XWX1U5xje0mMNdI2/U6JHuKHE3187XwxqfoTk8kIvSh3iQjLhVCOg0zuP4+uVrhm5sG45PMX+h6mh3tuCTEnJGmSEXFsmIk= Received: by 10.35.30.8 with SMTP id h8mr2172798pyj.1196956912870; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 08:01:52 -0800 (PST) Received: from swordfish.local.claimlynx.com ( [74.95.66.25]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id f10sm2925443pyh.2007.12.06.08.01.49 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Thu, 06 Dec 2007 08:01:51 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <985805C2-2026-4705-9D21-EA31FB9CF65F@gmail.com> From: Eric Crist To: Konstantinos Pachnis In-Reply-To: <47580BC8.6050205@freemail.gr> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v915) Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 10:01:47 -0600 References: <539c60b90712041638s78b4e40fn67434f2dce5e27e7@mail.gmail.com> <20071205154148.GB21074@gizmo.acns.msu.edu> <1196874620.32615.15.camel@p25dual1.lanl.gov> <47580BC8.6050205@freemail.gr> X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.915) Cc: Jerry McAllister , jamesh@lanl.gov, Steve Franks , User Questions Subject: Re: copying just / (not /tmp, /usr, etc) (rsync -x failed) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 16:02:01 -0000 On Dec 6, 2007, at 8:48 AM, Konstantinos Pachnis wrote: > James Harrison wrote: >> On Wed, 2007-12-05 at 10:41 -0500, Jerry McAllister wrote: >> >>> On Tue, Dec 04, 2007 at 05:38:20PM -0700, Steve Franks wrote: >>> >>> >>>> I have / on one slice, and [usr,tmp,var] on others.

Gee, maybe you could mine the data to do a 'most recent 31 days' report. That should not show the dips and peaks in the middle of the month. ////jerry > > - ---- > Marc G.

What version of FreeBSD are you using? Assuming a 5.x or later since you say you've started to use FreeBSD. What is the value of background_fsck in /etc/rc.conf ? You can also try setting fsck_y_enable="YES" in rc.conf (this will do fsck -y if the initial preen fails.)

He said he just wants to make a copy of the file system on to another disk. Getting a whole new system set up is overkill for that. Anyway, we were never happy with Amanda.

Screen can resize dynamically if the term program works correctly. That said, screen and the relationship to the termcap is always a royal pain. I use tcsh and I always throw something in my .tcshrc to detect for the TERM environment variable value for screen and blow away TERMCAP if it finds it. if ($term == "screen") then unsetenv TERMCAP endif Syntax will be different for other shells. - -- Andy Harrison public key: 0x67518262 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: http://firegpg.tuxfamily.org iD8DBQFHWC5bNTm8fWdRgmIRArQ0AJ4ugxEkyarWyA+lxbHmHz6ZI4hFcwCeJ3yT SBWUaohWiTdTOMrebgtWP+M= =P/Ve -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 6 17:34:28 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B8AF716A41B for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 17:34:28 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from pauls@utdallas.edu) Received: from smtp3.utdallas.edu (smtp3.utdallas.edu [129.110.10.49]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8798F13C467 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 17:34:26 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from pauls@utdallas.edu) Received: from utd59514.utdallas.edu (utd59514.utdallas.edu [129.110.3.28]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by smtp3.utdallas.edu (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5AF8C65505 for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 11:34:26 -0600 (CST) Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 11:34:25 -0600 From: Paul Schmehl To: FreeBSD Questions Message-ID: <00F787E8C720E8E8327BD5A1@utd59514.utdallas.edu> X-Mailer: Mulberry/4.0.8 (Linux/x86) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Subject: CD/DVD writer no longer works X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 17:34:28 -0000 Sometime in the past (I don't know when) my CD/DVD write device stopped=20 working.

The problem is that, even with switched ethernet, some packets have to be broadcast, which can lead to packets going round in loops or multiplying into a broadcast storm. STP prevents this by disabling connections to remove loops in the network.

I think I will just set the rc.conf variable to answer "Y" to fsck questions unless there is a better way. A side note, this system has been hard shutdown two times and each time required intervention. We also use several Linux system ( reiserfs and ext3 ) and raely do I have to interact with the systems on reboot. There is a differnce and I am in the fisrt stages trying to understand this. PS. I am confused about why so many people are replying to the list and my personal e-mail. This one was sent to me only. Others were sent to me and the list. Actually, every other reply. Is this normal for the list as I am new as of today?

I understand from different posts that ng_netflow module is performing quite well and does not add so much cpu load since packets are processed in the kernel. However, ng_netflow documentation is very confusing for begginers and I'm having a hard time to figure it out. Like mentioned before, I have PF+CARP implementation along with /usr/ports/net/ifstated port. This part is tested and is working fine. (If anybody wants advice here feel free to ask:) ) I'm wonder if it's a good ideea to add ng_netflow on top of it or should I use an additional system with TAP interface and just mirror incoming/outgoing traffic from switch. This is what I want to try for ng_netflow: cat /boot/loader.conf ng_ether_load="YES" ng_ksocket_load="YES" ng_tee_load="YES" ng_socket_load="YES" ng_netflow_load="YES" cat /etc/rc.conf |grep ng ng_netflow_enable="YES" cat /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ng_netflow #!/bin/sh # # PROVIDE: ng_netflow # REQUIRE: DAEMON . /etc/rc.subr name="ng_netflow" rcvar=`set_rcvar` ng_netflow_start() { echo "Starting ${name}." /usr/sbin/ngctl -f- <<-SEQ mkpeer bge2: tee lower right connect bge2: bge2:lower upper left name bge2:lower bge2_tee mkpeer bge2_tee: netflow left2right iface0 name bge2:lower.left2right netflow connect bge2_tee: netflow: right2left iface1 msg netflow: setifindex { iface=0 index=2 } msg netflow: setifindex { iface=1 index=1 } mkpeer netflow: ksocket export inet/dgram/udp msg netflow:export connect inet/127.0.0.1:8818 mkpeer bge1: tee lower right connect bge1: bge1:lower upper left name bge1:lower bge1_tee mkpeer bge1_tee: netflow left2right iface2 name bge1:lower.left2right netflow0 msg netflow0: setifindex { iface=2 index=4 } connect bge1_tee: netflow0: right2left iface3 msg netflow0: setifindex { iface=3 index=3 } mkpeer netflow0: ksocket export inet/dgram/udp msg netflow0:export connect inet/127.0.0.1:8818 SEQ } ng_netflow_stop() { echo "Stopping ${name}." /usr/sbin/ngctl -f- <<-SEQ shutdown netflow: SEQ } start_cmd="ng_netflow_start" stop_cmd="ng_netflow_stop" load_rc_config $name : ${ng_netflow_enable="NO"} run_rc_command "$1" As can be seen from above script I'm planning sending packets on localhost port 8818 first. Is the above configuration correct? It will affect in any way PF+CARP implementation regardging the fact that I'm not using CARP inetrfaces with ng_netflow but physical ones like bge1 and bge2? (I want to mention here that I'm not planning using ng_netflow on pf_sync interface) Should I stick with solutions from ports like softflowd & similar? What could be cpu/memory requirements difference for 100Mbps traffic between ng_netflow and with softflowd? Thanks in advance for any help.

If anyone here is interested I ran Office 97 and 2000 out of the box on FreeBSD 7beta no registry files or special hacks needed. Ive also run a couple small applications (Qicktime 7.1.6) (IE 5 5.5 6) and then some benchmarks 3DMark 2000v1.1, 3DMark2001SE, GL Excess and PC Mark04. In the future ill see if I can get 3DMark 2003 and 3DMark 2005 to run and produce results as well. I don't know if any of you guys or gals are Gamers.... But just in case I also installed Halo in Wine and it runs about the same on FreeBSD as it does on Linux. With D3D, DDraw and OpenGL working most every game that is running in Wine should run on FreeBSD..

If anyone here is interested I ran Office 97 and 2000 out of the box on FreeBSD 7beta no registry files or special hacks needed. Ive also run a couple small applications (Qicktime 7.1.6) (IE 5 5.5 6) and then some benchmarks 3DMark 2000v1.1, 3DMark2001SE, GL Excess and PC Mark04. In the future ill see if I can get 3DMark 2003 and 3DMark 2005 to run and produce results as well. I don't know if any of you guys or gals are Gamers.... But just in case I also installed Halo in Wine and it runs about the same on FreeBSD as it does on Linux. With D3D, DDraw and OpenGL working most every game that is running in Wine should run on FreeBSD.. I don't know this as fact as I've only tried one Game and four Benchmarks, but it does look promising.

Might want to be careful with the always answering "Y" thing, though...or at least make sure you have periodic backups ready to go in case the repair further loses data in the process. Is there an area that seems to be needing repairs in particular? Maybe you could find a way to move it to another drive so the system will come up more reliably and then other processes can remotely check the unmountable drive and remount it and start your process monitoring. > PS.

Unless the replier removes the personal address or the reply function on their mail client is only using a primary address (of the list) to send to, you'll get replies on both...depending on the issue some people prefer getting a response personally faster than waiting for the list to send it if for some reason it's bogging down :-) From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 6 19:18:13 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A39FF16A419; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 19:18:13 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from hselasky@c2i.net) Received: from swip.net (mailfe05.swip.net [212.247.154.129]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0E49413C455; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 19:18:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from hselasky@c2i.net) X-Cloudmark-Score: 0.000000 [] Received: from [85.19.218.45] (account mc467741@c2i.net [85.19.218.45] verified) by mailfe05.swip.net (CommuniGate Pro SMTP 5.1.13) with ESMTPA id 617962044; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 20:18:10 +0100 From: Hans Petter Selasky To: "no@spam@mgedv.net" Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 20:18:48 +0100 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <006701c8380d$e12ecc50$14b1a8c0@bstandard.lan> <200712061553.54412.hselasky@c2i.net> <000601c8382b$0b9459c0$14b1a8c0@bstandard.lan> In-Reply-To: <000601c8382b$0b9459c0$14b1a8c0@bstandard.lan> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200712062018.50262.hselasky@c2i.net> Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, freebsd-usb@freebsd.org Subject: Re: huawei e220 hsdpa on freebsd 6.3-BETA2 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 19:18:13 -0000 On Thursday 06 December 2007, no@spam@mgedv.net wrote: > > Can you make your modem show up like "ugen" by loading "ugen" before > > plugging > > your device. > > here it is ;) Hi, Your HSDPA modem presented itself like a mass storage device, probably with some autorun and virus like drivers intended for the Windows operating system :-) If that is true you bought a memory stick and not a HDSPA modem. > bInterfaceClass 08 > bInterfaceSubClass 06 > bInterfaceProtocol 50 Try loading "umass" and see for yourself.

I was finally able to get a working install in place using 8.2.1 ... The main issue I found was that one of the components in the install seems to be calling in Apache 2.2, while Plesk uses Apache 2.0 ... so, somehow its able to get *both* installed at the same time, but when the installer goes to install the 'swsoft/psa' port, it fails because of a conflict ... So, what I ended up doing is reducing the components to install to the 'bare minimal', and then manually added components from /usr/ports/swsoft afterwards ... Everything started up fine ... and *appears* to work ... The one problem that I've not been able to figure out how to surmount is when you actually try and add a domain ... even if the client is set to have no limits on their resources (ie. disk space), adding a domain tries to set (or just check, not 100% certain there) the hardquota on the directory, which, in a jail, of course fails ... With the error being: "ERROR: PleskFatalException Create ShortcutCreate Shortcut Up LevelUp Level Unable to get hardquota state: usermng failed: usermng: No entry found for path /usr/local/www/vhosts in mounted System error 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device 0: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/class.PHostingManager.php:1399 PHostingForm->assign(object of type PHostingManager, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean false) 1: /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/domains/hosting/phosting_setup.php:296" Has anyone else tried this in a jail and notice this and/or found a word around?

Was is supposed to be? No, it's on by default, but there's an early check to determine if the background check can be run. That depends on whether the partition has soft-updates turned-on (the default in sysinstall), and whether soft-updates managed to protect the partition during the shut-down. If fsck is asking for user input, those checks would have failed.

I try to use DBI:Pg and DBI:MySQL within a ruby-skript for accessing either MySQL or PostgreSQL database. Box is FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4 Mysql is mysql50-server Postgresql is posgresql82-server and postgresql82-client with unixODBC and ruby-dbi and ruby-dbd_pg and ruby-dbd_mysql installed. When running an access using Pg as backend (Postgres) and run this connect: dsn = "DBI:Pg:dbname=#{@db};host=#{@db_host};port=#{@db_port}" dbh = DBI.connect(dsn,@db_user,@db_passwd) I get this error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:344:in `load_driver': Could not load driver (no such file to load -- postgres) (DBI::InterfaceError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:227:in `_get_full_driver' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi.rb:213:in `connect' It seems that a class library 'postgres.rb' is missing, which is included by Pg.rb located in /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/Pg/. I did a find on my whole filesystem looking for 'postgres.rb' or 'postgres*' and did not find suitable. It seems this file is missing and not been installed by the installation process via ports. Is this a 'feature', or should I fill out a PR?

My understanding from the reading I have done is that in a situation like this where power outages are a danger (and presuably having the UPS signal the server to shut down gracefully is not practical), you need to make the file system as robust as possible in the first place, rather than rely on fsck -y after the event. Doesn't fsck -y rather sweep potential problems under the carpet? First step surely is to *disable* write caching if you have drives that are doing it? Then consider mounting the file system synchronously. Mind you, I don't know what the scale of the performance loss would be, and whether anyone does this nowadays! As I say, don't rely on my knowledge, but I was prompted to write by your latching on to a suggestion that was probably not intended to be the whole solution.

You could try and see if you could boot a live file system with it. Or, boot from another optical drive (if you have one) on the system with something like freesbie/ubuntu and see if it works with the live file system.

I successfully have built two kernels, one a couple of weeks ago and one just today but when I attempt to boot them these new kernels are not able to identify my boot partition. When I query the devices that the kernel sees during the boot failure all I see is an ad14 device(Which doesn't exist) and acd0. When I select the old kernel it boots without a problem. My boot device is ad10s1 which the November 1st kernel finds without a problem. I'm running a generic SMP kernel. Any ideas on what the problem is?

Usually, FreeBSD can boot just fine without user interaction when power fails or there's some other cause for a "hard" OS failure (e.g. a kernel panic). That it isn't doing so in your case is significant, because it may point to serious problems. Firstly, what is the server used for? Do you have unusually high load on the file system - a busy file server or a database with lots of writes? - The default is for the root partition to be mounted "noasync" and Soft-updates to be used for all other file systems. Both settings can handle "hard" OS failures pretty good. Did you alter the default settings when creating the file systems? If you don't know, send the output of "mount" command. - How are your drives set up? Are they on a "dumb" disk controller or on a RAID controller? (which one?) Is the RAID controller perhaps doing write caching without a battery unit? - Can you connect the UPS devices with the server machines so they can shutdown gracefully when the power is about to fail? --------------enig846169656400121B6F976611 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHWKBkldnAQVacBcgRAuQHAJ9200JvYy+cdlj0hm7v0O1P1BUV/QCdFQCC MAydT7Z5nvOPqdCezYpu7mU= =pVWZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig846169656400121B6F976611-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 7 05:27:58 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8E04616A420 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 05:27:58 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from info@plot.uz) Received: from hu-out-0506.google.com (hu-out-0506.google.com [72.14.214.228]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EC31113C448 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 05:27:57 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from info@plot.uz) Received: by hu-out-0506.google.com with SMTP id 28so4757619hub for ; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 21:27:56 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.86.71.1 with SMTP id t1mr1781006fga.1197004415377; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 21:13:35 -0800 (PST) Received: from plot.uz ( [83.221.180.247]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id k5sm277207nfh.2007.12.06.21.13.14 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=RC4-MD5); Thu, 06 Dec 2007 21:13:34 -0800 (PST) X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.7 (2006-10-05) X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.0 required=5.0 tests=none autolearn=unavailable version=3.1.7 X-Spam-Report: Received: from localhost by plot.uz (MDaemon PRO v9.5.5) with DomainPOP id md50000005054.msg for ; Fri, 07 Dec 2007 10:12:42 +0500 Delivered-To: aleksey@plot.uz Received: by 10.78.83.10 with SMTP id g10cs109944hub; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 12:47:30 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.115.94.1 with SMTP id w1mr2056271wal.1196974048231; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 12:47:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from mx2.freebsd.org (mx2.freebsd.org [69.147.83.53]) by mx.google.com with ESMTP id j39si2715920waf.2007.12.06.12.47.26; Thu, 06 Dec 2007 12:47:28 -0800 (PST) Received-SPF: pass (google.com: domain of owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org designates 69.147.83.53 as permitted sender) client-ip=69.147.83.53; Received: from hub.freebsd.org (hub.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::36]) by mx2.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3423A9476; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 20:46:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org) Received: from hub.freebsd.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 976AC16A542; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 20:46:37 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org) Delivered-To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 05CFE16A46C for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 20:46:32 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@hub.org) Received: from hub.org (hub.org [200.46.204.220]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BAC9D13C4DD for ; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 20:46:31 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@hub.org) Received: from localhost (unknown [200.46.204.183]) by hub.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 668C311FDCE4; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:27:44 -0400 (AST) Received: from hub.org ([200.46.204.220]) by localhost (mx1.hub.org [200.46.204.183]) (amavisd-maia, port 10024) with ESMTP id 92700-08; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:27:43 -0400 (AST) Received: from fserv.hub.org (blk-7-245-234.eastlink.ca [71.7.245.234]) by hub.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D02DC11FDCD3; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:27:43 -0400 (AST) Received: from [192.168.1.2] (unknown [192.168.1.2]) by fserv.hub.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4F0215C23D; Thu, 6 Dec 2007 16:27:45 -0400 (AST) Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 16:27:34 -0400 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: X-Mailer: Mulberry/4.0.8 (Linux/x86) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline X-BeenThere: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Errors-To: owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-Return-Path: owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-Envelope-From: owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-MDaemon-Deliver-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Spam-Processed: plot.uz, Fri, 07 Dec 2007 10:12:43 +0500 From: "Marc G.

I was finally able to get a working install in place using 8.2.1 ... The main issue I found was that one of the components in the install seems to be calling in Apache 2.2, while Plesk uses Apache 2.0 ... so, somehow its able to get *both* installed at the same time, but when the installer goes to install the 'swsoft/psa' port, it fails because of a conflict ... So, what I ended up doing is reducing the components to install to the 'bare minimal', and then manually added components from /usr/ports/swsoft afterwards ... Everything started up fine ... and *appears* to work ... The one problem that I've not been able to figure out how to surmount is when you actually try and add a domain ... even if the client is set to have no limits on their resources (ie. disk space), adding a domain tries to set (or just check, not 100% certain there) the hardquota on the directory, which, in a jail, of course fails ... With the error being: "ERROR: PleskFatalException Create ShortcutCreate Shortcut Up LevelUp Level Unable to get hardquota state: usermng failed: usermng: No entry found for path /usr/local/www/vhosts in mounted System error 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device 0: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/class.PHostingManager.php:1399 PHostingForm->assign(object of type PHostingManager, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean true, boolean false) 1: /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/domains/hosting/phosting_setup.php:296" Has anyone else tried this in a jail and notice this and/or found a word around?

I thought that in my scenario (circular VPNs), STP would just discover what's the shortest way (ie. whitch VPN-connection to go) from 192.168.1/24 to 192.168.2/24, from 192.168.1/24 to 192.168.3/24, from 192.168.2/24 to 192.168.3/24 etc, and then just lets all the packets (including layer 2 ones) pass the right bridge, and block them on other bridges, eliminating possibility for loops.

(btw, i'm not a c-guru) do you (or anybody else reading this) have an idea, how to get this device working and put it in serial mode "completely" ? regards...

However, I got a magazine that included FreeBSD/i386 6.2 on the DVD and I have always wanted to play with BSD. My past experience included UNIX System V, some Solaris 7 or 8, and other variants, so you know a bit of history. Anyway, I have a laptop preinstalled with Vista Home Premium and I would like to also run BSD on it. In reading your installation documentation, I do not see anything that suggests I can install FreeBSD onto my PC without wiping Windows. I also have restricted web access so cannot access you web site, so I would like to know if FreeBSD will install in a way that will not kill Windows on my PC? I have to ask this, because I once had an old PC and put Solaris on it, and that required a dedicated drive. The PC is now dead, so I have to make it all work on one machine.

FreeBSD does not require a dedicated driver, but it does need a (primary) partition (slice in FreeBSD-speak) on the harddisk. If you already have a free partition with sufficient space (a few gigabytes should be plenty) there should be no problems installing FreeBSD. (Although I have heard some rumors that Windows Vista makes it difficult to dual-boot other systems. I don't know if there is any substance to this.) If your Windows-installation already uses the whole hard-disk you will need to do *something* to get space for FreeBSD. I know that there are Windows-based tools that can shrink existing partitions without requiring a re-install of everything ('Partition Magic' is probably the most famous), but I have no personal experience with any of them. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 7 13:29:57 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 867F116A468 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 13:29:57 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kheuer2@gwdg.de) Received: from gwdu60.gwdg.de (gwdu60.gwdg.de [134.76.8.60]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E223A13C469 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 13:29:56 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kheuer2@gwdg.de) Received: from gwdu60.gwdg.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by gwdu60.gwdg.de (8.13.8/8.13.6) with ESMTP id lB7DFxFn046234; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 14:15:59 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from kheuer2@gwdg.de) Received: from localhost (kheuer2@localhost) by gwdu60.gwdg.de (8.13.8/8.13.6/Submit) with ESMTP id lB7DFxHG046231; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 14:15:59 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from kheuer2@gwdg.de) X-Authentication-Warning: gwdu60.gwdg.de: kheuer2 owned process doing -bs Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2007 14:15:59 +0100 (CET) From: Konrad Heuer To: David Morton In-Reply-To: <3FCDB80A8B104BC1BCEF3A0696B55144@LenC2008922a26> Message-ID: <20071207140843.O46172@gwdu60.gwdg.de> References: <3FCDB80A8B104BC1BCEF3A0696B55144@LenC2008922a26> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Cc: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: FreeBSD on a PC with Windows X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 13:29:57 -0000 On Fri, 7 Dec 2007, David Morton wrote: > I have been out of work so long (since being diagnosed as autistic and > scared) that even as an IT professional, I now get very anxious about > messing with my PC. > > However, I got a magazine that included FreeBSD/i386 6.2 on the DVD and I > have always wanted to play with BSD.

Hello, David, I think the most simple chance you have if you do not want to destroy your windows installation but want to play with BSD is to get FreeSBIE from http://www.freesbie.org/ or so and burn it to CD. Than you will be able run FreeBSD from CD only without touching your hard disk. If you find FreeBSD useful after playing with FreeSBIE for some time you may possibly pluck up the courage to repartition your hard disk and to install both system, Vista and FreeBSD.

There are several ways to do it but they all depend on you repartitioning your drive to hold an additional primary partition for FreeBSD. There are several commercial products that can do this reliably (I've only used Partition Magic) but I don't think there are open-source or free products with similar reliability. After you get the primary partition, you can most likely just install FreeBSD on it and it will "just work", offering you to choose between the Windows and the FreeBSD systems. --------------enig6E8C2A8B8BE0BAA4623DAD59 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHWUuFldnAQVacBcgRAn/CAJ4g/qkQXKEDApBmbB28tgB7cjJTQwCfUr+T A1IckD6ufleUfC7I/mP1RA0= =p8Fe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig6E8C2A8B8BE0BAA4623DAD59-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 7 13:52:41 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E58DA16A46B for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 13:52:41 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sonicy@otenet.gr) Received: from rosebud.otenet.gr (rosebud.otenet.gr [195.170.0.94]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6D7C213C447 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 13:52:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sonicy@otenet.gr) Received: from freebsdgr.dyndns.org (athedsl-321829.home.otenet.gr [85.72.112.195]) (authenticated bits=0) by rosebud.otenet.gr (8.13.8/8.13.8/Debian-3) with ESMTP id lB7DUYt3008490 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 15:30:34 +0200 Message-ID: <47594AFA.3000308@otenet.gr> Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 15:30:34 +0200 From: Manolis Kiagias User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (X11/20071109) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org References: <3FCDB80A8B104BC1BCEF3A0696B55144@LenC2008922a26> In-Reply-To: <3FCDB80A8B104BC1BCEF3A0696B55144@LenC2008922a26> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Subject: Re: FreeBSD on a PC with Windows X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 13:52:42 -0000 David Morton wrote: > I have been out of work so long (since being diagnosed as autistic and > scared) that even as an IT professional, I now get very anxious about > messing with my PC. > > However, I got a magazine that included FreeBSD/i386 6.2 on the DVD and I > have always wanted to play with BSD.

Now, I don't know what type of laptop you got, but since it is a Vista laptop, it is obviously one of the newest models. In most cases, disk partitions on these are: 1. Recovery partition for the pre-installed OS 2. Main Windows installation 3. Data Partition The first (recovery) partition does not have a drive letter assigned to it in Windows, so it is not directly "viewable" from Windows explorer. The size is usually around 7-8Gb. The rest of the disk is usually split between C: (Windows) and D: (for user storage). If this is the case, you would probably prefer to shrink the partition assigned to D:, since Vista needs quite some space for itself and the applications. To shrink the partition you could try Norton Partition Magic, or, even better, download and run the GParted live CD. If you intend to experiment with ports, packages and the like on FreeBSD, I suggest you leave a couple of Gigabytes for the slice. It all depends of course on what you plan to install. Bear in mind FreeBSD's slice must be created as primary partition, so you must not have more than three primary partitions on your disk prior to creating the slice. When installing FreeBSD, you will be asked whether you would like to install a Boot Manager. Answer NO (select to leave the MBR untouched). When installation is finished, reboot to Vista (it will be your only option anyway), and download and install EasyBCD (it is a free program, google for it). With this, in a few clicks, you will create an option to boot FreeBSD in Vista's boot menu. It is trivial as the program detects the FreeBSD partition automatically.

I start a new Virtual Machine, select FreeBSD as the OS, FreeBSD 6 as the specific version (from the VM Ware Fusion menus) Then insert a FreeBSD 6.2 install disk in the drive and run through the setup process. Select use entire disk, no boot manager, .... install the "Developer" package, no additional packages... the install runs to completion. However, when, after installing the OS, I let the virtual machine reboot, it hangs after the POST without displaying the FreeBSD hardware probe messages. No errors, nothing. It doesn't even get as far as the menu where you select normal, or acpi disabled, etc. I downloaded an image created by someone else of a VMWare Workstation image, and that runs on my Mac under VMWare Fusion, but I am unable to compile and install VMWare Tools ("make all" succeeded, but "make install" failed with a file not found error...) If you like I can copy/paste those errors in a seperate email. I don't understand why I cannot create my own bootable VMWare image though ?

Everything on the loopback interface is blocked with this rule set. You will normally want a rule at top like this: pass quick on lo0 all This will pass anything on the loopback interface be it IPv4 or IPv6. Cheers, Erik _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" Hi there, I will recommend you using below rule if you are not planning filtering traffic on loopback: #Skip all PF processing on interface lo0 set skip on lo0 However, if this doed not solve your issue maybe you should paste your pf.conf. This way we could help you further. Cheers, Catalin --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo! Search.

Thanks for the tip about setting it in the kernel config, I'll do that in case I have to boot into single user from boot-up. The handbook seems a bit sparse about keyboards. Wouldn't it be a good idea to recommend to all "foreign" users to set their keyboard in their kernel config? I assume it defaults to US.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with 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 freebsd-questions-request@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/me@me.org (obviously, substitute your mail address for "me@me.org"). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: freebsd-questions-request@freebsd.org with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? ========================================= Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/index.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/en/books/faq/index.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. 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. When sending a new message, well, send a new message. Don't reply to some other message, erase the old content and change the subject line. That leaves an In-reply-to: header which many mail readers use to thread messages, so your message shows up as a reply to some other message. People often delete messages a whole thread at a time, so apart from irritating people, you also run a chance of having the message deleted unread. 4. 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. 5. 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. 6. 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. 7. 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? 8. 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. 9. 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 follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: 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 you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. 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?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. 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. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. 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. 11. 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. $Id: Howto-ask-questions,v 1.6 2005/08/10 02:21:44 grog Exp $ _______________________________________________ Thanks to Josh Paetzel for updating this document to describe mailman.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. "The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD". Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information.

You need to run it like super-user: #include #include #include #include #include #include #include int main(int argc, char **argv) { struct usb_ctl_request ucr = { /* zero */ }; int f; if (argc < 3) { printf("Usage: %s /dev/usb1 \n", argv[0]); return 1; } f = open(argv[1], O_RDWR); if (f < 0) { return 1; } ucr.ucr_addr = atoi(argv[2]); ucr.ucr_request.bmRequestType = 0; ucr.ucr_request.bRequest = 3; /* SET_FEATURE */ ucr.ucr_request.wValue[0] = 1; if (ioctl(f, USB_REQUEST, &ucr)) { printf("Error!\n"); } close (f); return 0; } Use "usbdevs -v" to get the parameters. Don't forget to load "umodem". If my program doesn't work, I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of your modem, and tell them the truth, that the device is a mass-storage device and that you want the money back! You paid for a modem, but got a mass-storage device. You can tell them that FreeBSD USB experts have looked at your device. There is no doubt about it that you've been fooled :-) --HPS HINT: HINT: Buy a HDSPA modem that comes with a CD-ROM. Then there is a greater chance that they did not put the drivers on the device itself.

It it called 'dual booting' and is covered in the FreeBSD Handbook. I have done this on numerous machines over the last ten years or so. The basic steps are as follows -- but you should study up on each yourself. -- Make room to install FreeBSD. FreeBSD does not require a dedicated disk, but it does require at least one dedicated primary slice - which is called a primary partition in MS World. Making room can consist of any of: - Use a separate disk - Shrink the existing slice[s] (primary partitions) and create a new slice in the freed up space. - delete an existing slice (primary partition) and turn it in to a FreeBSD slice. Probably the middle one is what you will need to do on a laptop. First of all, you need to know that both MS and FreeBSD allow only four (4) slices - which MS calls primary partitions. MS allows some various kinds of extended 'partition' and FreeBSD permits you to subdivide the slice in to pieces which it calls partitions - nice confusion. To shrink the existing slice[s] you need some specialized piece of software. Some come with FreeBSD that will do the job for older MS filesystem types such as FAT, but they will not shrink NTFS and most new systems are coming with NTFS. So, there are some commercial utilities and a couple of new freeware versions that some people have spoken highly of. I have sucessfully used Partition Magic 7.0 many times to shrink and convert primary partitions. But it does not work on USB disks. So recently I got Partition Magic 8.0 which claims to work on USB, but I could not get it to work. It failed to run from booting from CD. I got a rescue disk version running, but it wouldn't even see my new USB 2 harddisk let alone work on it. So, I sent it back for a refund. - NOTE Amazon-Nothing But Software was good about doing the refund promptly. Anyway, see if you can get a 7.0 version of PM and use it. Another I haven't tried is Partition Commander. I have heard some people say it works well. There are also a couple of fairly new freeware utilities I have heard people say good things about. One is called 'Gparted' and it is an ISO you download, burn on to a CD and boot from. I can't remember the other one at the moment, but it is supposed to look a lot like working with Partition Magic 7.0. Run the utility, whatever it is. Shrink the existing slice/primary partition. They will probably use MS terminology and so will probably call it a primary partition. Try to free up 10 GB or more if you can. Have the utility create a primary partition in the newly freed up space. It must be a primary partition type - not an extended partition. Partition Magic and maybe some of the other utilities will whine and complain if you try to make a second primary partition and tell you it could make the system unbootable, but it works just fine since you will shortly be turning that primary partition type in to a FreeBSD type slice which MS will not recognize and will ignore. Just make it create a primary partition with a FAT32 type file system in the freed up space. (That will change when you do the FreeBSD install) Finish up the process and get out of the utility and remove the utility's boot CD or floppy. NOTE: If you are using Partition Magic, it works much better to make the 'rescue floppies' and boot and run from them rather than an installed version of it. In fact, you are prevented from running it on the same disk that you are booted to. So, with only one hard disk, you have to run from floppies. NOTE ALSO: If you have a spare slice available (remember, only 4 are allowed) and if your MS slice (Primary Partition) is an NTFS type, then you may want to make another small slice just below the FreeBSD slice of a couple GB and make it FAT32. Then you would have some easy space to use to transfer files back and forth between MS and FreeBSD. That is because, so far, FreeBSD does not write NTFS. It can read it fine, but is not quite ready to write - although I heard that progress is being made. So, then you might have slice 1 = Diag/recover, slice 2 = MS (Vista, XP), slice 3 = FAT32 transfer space, slice 4 = FreeBSD. -- Once you have the disk properly redivided with room to install FreeBSD then put in the FreeBSD install disk and start it up and do the install. The only significant thing to check on is to make sure you are installing to the right place. Slices are numbered 1,2,3,4. Your new free slice will be at least number 2 and maybe as high as number 4, depending on how many others are used for the MS OS. If there is a diag slice and an MS OS slice, it will be 3 and if they also add an MS data slice, then it will be 4. Lets say, for example that it is 3 and that your disk is SATA. The disk name would be ad0 and the disk slice full name would be ad0s3 (If the disk is SCSI or SAS or USB, it would be da0 and the slice would be da0s3, but SATA is the most likely). You can look through the dmesg output from the boot to find out what type of disk it is. It will show up in the beginning of the lines that tell about the disks. Just look for ad0 or da0 -- if there was a second disk, it would be ad1 or da1 - disks are numbered starting with 0. In the installer it will give you a list of slices to install to. Just make sure you select the one that you intend to use for FreeBSD. Don't select the one[s] MS is on. -- Next, you have to decide how you want to divide the new FreeBSD slice. Actually, you should do this before you start the installer, after you know about how much space you freed up from shrinking the other stuff. Let's say you freed up just a mite over 16GB (16384 MB). The following might be good. / 192 MB swap 1024 MB (eg 1 GB) /tmp 256 MB /usr 2048 MB /var 2048 MB /home all the rest - around 10820 MB minus some system use. That would give you some room to install a few things and experiment, but not to run any major size server type application or to build something as big as openoffice (install that from prebuilt packages anyway. It is too big to bother building from source) If you are going to build and install some bigger stuff - Apache and Firefox for example, you will want to make /usr much bigger and move /usr/ports to /home and make a link. Alternatively, you might want to just have / and swap so everything goes in to / (root). In such a small system that is also private, that can be a useful way to do it, but in larger systems, there are advantages of breaking things up separating things. Handling backups and recoveries and walling off potential runaway processes filling disk are the biggest reasons for breaking things up. Ease of building a system is a reason for putting it all (except for swap) in one partition/filesystem. Swap should be in its own space. -- Then get on past the disk build and go on to installing stuff. Decide what you want to install - you should also think about this before hand - and choose those items and let it run. It will ask you where to install from. If you have a good internet connection, do the install from the net - ftp site. If not, install from the CD/DVD. Make sure to install the ports tree. -- Do a system upgrade to get any security fixes and have the ports tree updated. That is using csup. You have to create a csup config file. The process is pretty well documented. The update takes place over the net. To do it, you will have to have included source in your install. -- You will also want to install Xorg. Probably you will also want Firefox and Thunderbird, openoffice (from a prebuilt package) and maybe some games. Some people think KDE and Gnome are essential, but I don't really like them. For Xorg to be usable, you will need some XWindows manager, but a simpler one may be better. I happen to use AfterStep. There are a couple of others that are less bloated too. I can't think of the names at the moment. -- Get on the machine, log in and experiment around. Make sure you make a regular account for yourself and put that in the wheel group so you can su to root when needed to manage the system. -- have fun. ////jerry > > I also have restricted web access so cannot access you web site, so I would > like to know if FreeBSD will install in a way that will not kill Windows on > my PC? > > I have to ask this, because I once had an old PC and put Solaris on it, and > that required a dedicated drive.

For generic informatin http://dsteinbrook.googlepages.com/hpliponfreebsd Make sure you start HPLIP daemons before the CUPS daemon. Make sure you understand the part of the article about the kernel! ulpt driver must be out of kernel!!! Make sure you add printers using http://localhost:631 before you go to HP management program. Finally, parallel printers are not supported by HPLIP no matter what they say. They are only supported if you could attach them directly to the local network on the very specific way. Also there is whole class of HP printers that not supported as they use very unusual protocol to communicate with the printer server Qoute from HPLIP website. Question: Are drivers available for the Deskjet 710C, 712C, 720C, 722C, 820Cse, 820Cxi, 1000Cse, 1000Cxi; or LaserJet 1000, 1005, 1020, 3100; or Color LaserJet 1500, 2600 printers? Answer: These are non-standard host based printers. Currently there are no plans to support these printers in HPLIP. Ghostscript print filters for the Deskjet products can be found at the pnm2ppa project. These printers are supported with http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/print/foo2zjs/pkg-descr driver and I personally would not waist my time with them. If you are managing printers in your company the best decision that you could make is to have only printers that can speak postscript language and not worry about drivers to begin with. HPLIP is the great thing if you want to get full functionality from you ALL-IN-ONE devices (including scanning) and things like toner option. Printers however on your network will still be managed by CUPS spooling system. I believe that HPLIP cannot work with other spooling systems that you might like better than CUPS so that could be also another reason always to use printers that can speak postscript language.

Now I see the light. :) So I suppose there is no way to schedule as I wish using cron. I suspect I'll have to modify my script to do the date checking and only execute the "meat" if it's the right date. Thanks, Drew -- Be a Great Magician!

You should be fine since your other printer is a parallel port=20 printer. The HPLIP port doesn't configure parallel port printers so=20 just use the normal CUPS configuration. There are some issues with=20 the PSC printers and getting attached as umass devices. Search the=20 archives for more info. Basically a real solution for the umass=20 issue won't appear until the HPS USB stack grows "generic device=20 access for already claimed usb devices" support sometime next year. =2D-=20 Anish Mistry amistry@am-productions.biz AM Productions http://am-productions.biz/ --nextPart7332509.Chg53pF0bM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHWa4rxqA5ziudZT0RAlygAJ90QbvqlnsbS9zHIgdEf9pyQQdjBgCfZR3M dJju7xmjt3IaKDKcO+okErM= =Oh4K -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart7332509.Chg53pF0bM-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 7 21:06:08 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A737316A420 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 21:06:08 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from pauls@utdallas.edu) Received: from smtp3.utdallas.edu (smtp3.utdallas.edu [129.110.10.49]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8AE6F13C45A for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 21:06:08 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from pauls@utdallas.edu) Received: from utd59514.utdallas.edu (utd59514.utdallas.edu [129.110.3.28]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by smtp3.utdallas.edu (Postfix) with ESMTP id 328F565505 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 15:06:08 -0600 (CST) Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 15:06:07 -0600 From: Paul Schmehl To: FreeBSD Questions Message-ID: <1DD9ABE123D4CF6F937ADD62@utd59514.utdallas.edu> X-Mailer: Mulberry/4.0.8 (Linux/x86) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Subject: Problems with auditd X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 21:06:08 -0000 I upgraded my system from 6.0 RELEASE to 6.2 RELEASE by cvsupping the files and then running buildkernel/buildworld as usual. Since doing that, auditd will not run, even though I have auditd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf.

I have since cvsupped a second time and rebuilt world, but I have not rebuilt the kernel. -- Paul Schmehl (pauls@utdallas.edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/ir/security/ From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 7 21:18:09 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6ACF416A417 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 21:18:09 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from roberthuff@rcn.com) Received: from smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net (smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net [207.172.157.102]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 57D6B13C458 for ; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 21:18:07 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from roberthuff@rcn.com) Received: from mr08.lnh.mail.rcn.net ([207.172.157.28]) by smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net with ESMTP; 07 Dec 2007 16:18:07 -0500 Received: from smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net (smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net [207.172.4.11]) by mr08.lnh.mail.rcn.net (MOS 3.8.5-GA) with ESMTP id JKR00373; Fri, 7 Dec 2007 16:18:07 -0500 (EST) Received: from 209-6-22-188.c3-0.smr-ubr1.sbo-smr.ma.cable.rcn.com (HELO jerusalem.litteratus.org.litteratus.org) ([209.6.22.188]) by smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net with ESMTP; 07 Dec 2007 16:17:02 -0500 From: Robert Huff MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <18265.47245.180114.491313@jerusalem.litteratus.org> Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2007 16:18:05 -0500 To: Anish Mistry In-Reply-To: <200712071533.47603.amistry@am-productions.biz> References: <18265.33716.292978.508655@jerusalem.litteratus.org> <4759951F.4060104@math.arizona.edu> <18265.43226.111999.285025@jerusalem.litteratus.org> <200712071533.47603.amistry@am-productions.biz> X-Mailer: VM 7.17 under 21.5 (beta28) "fuki" XEmacs Lucid X-Junkmail-Whitelist: YES (by domain whitelist at mr08.lnh.mail.rcn.net) Cc: Robert Huff , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: help wanted configuring HPLIP X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 21:18:09 -0000 Anish Mistry writes: > You should be fine since your other printer is a parallel port > printer.

This looks like it does what I want! I completely forgot about the masquerade feature in Sendmail. Thanks a lot for this. Incidentally, the reason why I ran into this problem was because I absolutely cannot get GNU Mailman to stop using host.my.domain in the mail dispatch section (yes, I have modified mm_cfg.py), and this was totally messing up Postfix and causing it to trigger all sorts of spam filtering checks that should not have been invoked. I realized I technically had a hole in my config and I didn't want to have to fix every single client that might send mail through my server.

Some people use Flash or Java for work and FreeBSD is definitely not for them. For me personally works boot as a professional tool and as life-stile OS. But then it doesn't work for my mother in law and probably it doesn't work for 99% of other casual computer users.

Ah; sorry I misunderstood your aim. I don't like doing this heavy-handed sort of rewriting, but the magic keyword is "masquerade". masquerade_classes, masquerade_domains, and masquerade_exceptions give you a number of options. I don't see any way to be quite as sweeping as you're describing, but in my opinion that's a good thing.

It's more recommended for DVD playback than mplayer, from what I read. I hardly use DVDs but I think it gives more menu functionality if that's what you're after.

Like a said to Robert, it should be pretty simple to tweak the umass=20 driver to not attach as umass for your printer. All you should need=20 is in umass_match_proto is an if() statement that checks for you=20 printer ID and then returns UMATCH_NONE =2D-=20 Anish Mistry amistry@am-productions.biz AM Productions http://am-productions.biz/ --nextPart1959825.aTJl8D2Ce8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature;

The reason fsck works to begin with, is that it is designed to fix specific= =20 inconsistencies in the file system that are expected. The file system=20 (takling about UFS here, and other non-journaled file systems that care abo= ut=20 this stuff) is designed very carefully such that certain correctable=20 inconsistencies happen, while preventing those that are not correctable. That is, under fully expected circumstances, UFS is intended to require fsc= k=20 on reboot. But it is NOT intended that fsck find unexpected inconcistencies= =20 and ask for operator intervention. What happens in the event of write caching + power failure, software bug or= =20 hardware bugs, is that you end up with semi-random inconsistencies. fsck=20 *may* be able to patch the situation enough for the file system to be usabl= e,=20 but fundamentally all bets are off. > First step surely is to *disable* write caching if you have drives that > are doing it? =46or UFS/reiserfs/xfs/jfs/ext3fs/ext2fs, yes. > Then consider mounting the file system synchronously.

Synchronous mounting is not required for consistency (except perhaps for=20 ext2fs; not sure). It is enough that the system does not break the file=20 system's ability to guarantee ordering of certain critical operations, whic= h=20 is why write caching causes a problem (the drive re-orders writes for=20 performance and you end up with B happening before A, but consistency=20 depended on B happening AFTER A). =2D-=20 / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller ' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgpkey@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schuller@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org --nextPart1219279.2iA4np75sH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHWjuCDNor2+l1i30RAvBUAKCDBrruwY4SePsrR2SSSF+KF0BmyACcCDxz tidDRwnoGx83fixmTRtv0zs= =n3UT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1219279.2iA4np75sH-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Dec 8 07:08:33 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 89B3E16A419 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 07:08:33 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tusar143kumar@gmail.com) Received: from ug-out-f141.google.com (ug-out-f141.google.com [66.249.92.141]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1FEB813C457 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 07:08:32 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tusar143kumar@gmail.com) Received: by ug-out-f141.google.com with SMTP id 6so204034uga for ; Fri, 07 Dec 2007 23:08:31 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; bh=sQajAw3rMsXrXvU15YbhM25ACp/wnAjAqzKzdEE7gfk=; b=mpUqz/x2hDHxyKAtHmsWQniTtpGZFZgxjNYierQLY0dQCoc2LrSGnXeS2kEnsDQ5l/CgvBDkXs5mvAEJxR5Q9Nnx1CB1DQSpZiFDluisoEthCv/x5jXFTcwbPnEYYyvsr7yQP8UDWLNLyNlA++Fr2lMk4Wnr+eRdKLO9SHLz1U0= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; b=jyNsJLtS0wBww74Q4R+FnY/Cl0LJSQ35hnnkg+Mv72pxdnNVVG/KX9D2dGTNSzN/71c9w13DSJIZfptBhJohKCjWbmQneFj8XkbasDBjWBK4ZkuvJUAuml8HCxqtpmHXL+eFklhDrN4Rb9Gvmv+lL7JBQHNgsXD/78MS21ds4cA= Received: by 10.78.205.7 with SMTP id c7mr4481515hug.1197097711324; Fri, 07 Dec 2007 23:08:31 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <57369f380712072308rde43d6dj@mail.gmail.com> Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2007 23:08:31 -0800 From: "tusar kumar" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Subject: tusar kumar wants to chat X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 08 Dec 2007 07:08:33 -0000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- tusar kumar wants to stay in better touch using some of Google's coolest new products.

The easiest would be to configure them for the same subnet, there is no point in having them on separate subnets and the same physical network.

Firmware is a binary file which you extract in this case from the M$ .cab file supplied to you by scanner manufacturer. You place this file on proper file /usr/local/share/sane/snapscan. (So it is different than a kernel module for Wi drivers that you kldload into your kernel) I have never bothered to understand scanning as much as I tried to understand Unix printing but I believe that this file is used by sane to speak proprietary language of your particular scanner. In essence your scanner uses this file to explain the Sane the page layout and graphics. So it is not a driver! I am not sure if there is such thing as Command Scanner Language (you are probably familiar with Command Printer Language) and something equivalent to Postscript language in world of printers. Anyhow, if you are serious about security you should never use any type of binaries supported by hardware vendors. (I sound if I have been using too much OpenBSD lately :-) ) I see no reason why should sane-backhands work any different on amd64. On another hand if you are using amd64 that tells me that you are running serious production servers so why would you want to attach a scanner to such machine is not really clear to me. You may attach a scanner to a workstation running i386 and possibly make scanning available on the local network but never to serious production server. >> If you need step by step instructions how to install scanner you >> might contact me via private mail. >> > > I am very interested in this kind of technical information, since I do > foreplan to buy a scanner.

For the purposes of this how to I will assume that your scanner is attached via USB to your workstation. (You can read the handbook about SCSI scanners) Step 1 Make sure your kernel contains the following (Generic Kernel will contain it!!!) device usb device uhci device ohci device uscanner Step 2 Edit /etc/devfs.conf with the permissions perm ugen* 0666 perm uscanner* 0666 This is of course huge security risk and there are much better ways to give access to sane-backhands and common users to device nodes. Step 3 Reboot the computer Step 4 Type $ scanimage -L as a common user to get a list of detected scanners. You should get something as [pedja@ /usr/home/Pedja]$ scanimage -L device `snapscan:/dev/uscanner0' is a EPSON EPSON Scanner flatbed scanner Step 5 Type $ scanimage -T as a common user to test the installation. You should get something like this if your scanner does not need binary blob. [pedja@ /usr/home/Pedja]$ scanimage -T scanimage: scanning image of size 2552x3507 pixels at 24 bits/pixel scanimage: acquiring RGB frame, 8 bits/sample scanimage: reading one scanline, 7656 bytes... PASS scanimage: reading one byte... PASS scanimage: stepped read, 2 bytes... PASS scanimage: stepped read, 4 bytes... PASS scanimage: stepped read, 8 bytes...

PASS scanimage: stepped read, 7 bytes... PASS scanimage: stepped read, 3 bytes... PASS Note: All of the above is very well explained in man scanimage Step 6 Read carefully the output of scanimage -T because it is a key for the trouble shooting your scanner. Step 7 If you need firmware compile the port /usr/ports/archivers/cabextract Step 8 From the CD that came with your scanner and M$ .cub file extract ESFW30.BIN (This is firmware file for my scanner) Step 9 cp ESFW30.BIN /usr/local/share/sane/snapscan/your-firmwarefile.bin (Keep the file name your-firmwarefile.bin|| unless you want to edit one of sane configuration files:-) Step 10 Try again scanimage -T Step 11 Read carefully the output. Step 12 If it still does not work cd /usr/local/etc/sane.d as a supper user Step 13 # ls (And you should see something like ) [pedja@ /usr/local/etc/sane.d]$ ls abaton.conf genesys.conf ricoh.conf agfafocus.conf gt68xx.conf s9036.conf apple.conf hp.conf saned.conf artec.conf hp4200.conf sceptre.conf artec_eplus48u.conf hp5400.conf sharp.conf avision.conf ibm.conf sm3840.conf bh.conf leo.conf snapscan.conf canon.conf lexmark.conf sp15c.conf canon630u.conf ma1509.conf st400.conf coolscan.conf matsushita.conf stv680.conf coolscan2.conf microtek.conf tamarack.conf dc210.conf microtek2.conf teco1.conf dc240.conf mustek.conf teco2.conf dc25.conf mustek_usb.conf teco3.conf dist nec.conf test.conf dll.conf net.conf u12.conf dmc.conf pie.conf umax.conf epson.conf plustek.conf umax1220u.conf fujitsu.conf plustek_pp.conf umax_pp.conf Step 14 As my scanner is epson I will carefully inspect file epson.conf and make sure my scanner model is listed in the file. Note: It always helps to have up to date ports tree and the latest version of sane-backhands as the models are constantly updated. Step 15 Start Xsane (Kooka) as a common user (never as a root) and enjoy your scanning. If your scanner was listed on Sane website as completely supported or good supported (means some obscure feature is not supported) you will be able to scan documents with the same quality and easy of use as if you were using Windows. Note also that you might need to set preferences for Xsane. I for one use scanner mostly to scan the documents so I prefer to keep them as .pdf file. If you are using scanner to scan old photos or old negatives you probably want different format. You will see setting Xsane is an art in its own right and there are tons of options. Remark: It is possible to get more scanners working with Sane-frontends as it contains usually the latest not fully tested drivers. Also some of HP flat bad scanners working using the binaries from HPLIP. Best, Predrag P. S. I left out scanning over the network from this how to. That probably should be consider advanced topic in scanning.

If they do need to be on seperate subnets, then you can add aliases to each interface so that they see each other as on the same subnet. On machine "A": # ifconfig alias 10.10.1.2 255.255.255.0 (Any number that isn't 0, 1, or 255 ought to work for the interface address but we'll use 2 for simplicity) On machine "B": # ifconfig alias 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 Hopefully this helps you. -- David Michael Curry (Dave) () ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org | Against proprietary extensions From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Dec 8 17:46:30 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F1C3816A418 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 17:46:29 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from aryeh.friedman@gmail.com) Received: from py-out-1112.google.com (py-out-1112.google.com [64.233.166.180]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A14EA13C459 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 17:46:28 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from aryeh.friedman@gmail.com) Received: by py-out-1112.google.com with SMTP id u77so2421056pyb for ; Sat, 08 Dec 2007 09:46:27 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:subject:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; bh=Hs5FGfoni37NT2O9rEMK1AqaAIuNHMTLmW+IxXzlZs4=; b=Nu1wdM7zNxuyAPoRdhe1jV0xShD/8awtFKqZx7vIlKAOGANuzhVsi5AFp42NL82rZqQ/uEx3TjtEyUSK8qIwEkhvSfgsDt0ZuQxF1afCv7krfgTrZL9UkDScLURnRXisyFZCZdsKTT+uYQApjCZANoCrr22Vrz95bDFv5DFcIt0= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:subject:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; b=GfKDnQW7Hx6JFR7X6tfAA9sfTYBJLURKx4xy04CkvXBWx6izwqQATexolfU1oSdfTu4vd/RpLxVSCaEBLWs2zl8eblgZN2vaxgCAc+uOWQ4Nt1c+bmKycfWWfOvhcP14Gzy99aerYY8USoejNWTXooflYDdXEDX/9hYwdKyNIss= Received: by 10.65.205.16 with SMTP id h16mr9580867qbq.1197135987438; Sat, 08 Dec 2007 09:46:27 -0800 (PST) Received: from ?192.168.2.2?

In fact, I have no serious reason to run amd64 since I use my amd64 computer as a ``user workstation'' and the main benefit from running amd64 is to manage huge amounts of RAM --- as far as I can tell from the various docs I have read. My reasons to run amd64 are mainly geeky or childish :) > As I said before the handbook is excellent but here is my quick and > dirty step by step how to for scanners.

I realise it would normally be excessively cautious to go for synchronous mounting, but what about for environments where power supply is such a major problem?

I just installed Ubuntu on a second hard drive. (Got fed up waiting for things like VMware Player 2.) I've booted into FreeBSD 6.3-PRERELEASE and I'm looking at my /etc/fstab. Is it safe to specify "rw" for my ReiserFS partitions, or should I stick with "ro" for now? (I have Googled this, but can't find anything recent on FBSD and ReiserFS.)

Remember that only 4 primary partitions / slices can be made and each thing will require one of them eg maybe Slice 1 = MS, 2 = FAT32, Linux = 3, FreeBSD = 4 might work. I have never done any testing writing/reading FAT32 from FreeBSD. It seems not to have any delays. ////jerry > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Dec 8 20:13:47 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C8EE916A421 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 20:13:47 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from doug@safeport.com) Received: from pemaquid.safeport.com (pemaquid.safeport.com [209.31.154.17]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6B72D13C447 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 20:13:47 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from doug@safeport.com) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by pemaquid.safeport.com (8.13.4/8.13.4) with ESMTP id lB8KDjIO032311 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 15:13:46 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from doug@safeport.com) Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2007 15:13:45 -0500 (EST) From: doug@safeport.com To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Message-ID: <20071208150537.I31854@pemaquid.safeport.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed X-Greylist: Sender IP whitelisted, not delayed by milter-greylist-3.0 (pemaquid.safeport.com [127.0.0.1]); Sat, 08 Dec 2007 15:13:46 -0500 (EST) Cc: Subject: Using wpa_supplicant with ipw on 6.2 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 08 Dec 2007 20:13:47 -0000 I am using a ThinkPad, T42p which has an Intel PRO/1000 wireless interface built in.

(Of course there is subtitle difference between CUPS-PPD files and generic PPD files used by LPD). My hunch is yes but I have not read enough documentation to say yes or no. I would really like to hear from some Sane developers or IT professional who works on scanners who will give us more explanation. So far my understanding is following. The kernel recognizes your scanning device using the uscanner0 driver and usb daemon as it is attached to USB. Sane-backhands and Sane-fronthands is a collection of drivers that speak scanner language. As a mater of fact it used to be that you need one driver per application per scanner (like printing in old times) but I think that one of chef achievements of Sane project is to automatize writing drivers so that you need to write one driver per application and then hack it to work on all supported scanners. Firmware is dictionary which teach sane backhand to speak proprietary language of a particular scanner. So it is something like this scanner<---> uscanner0<---->sane-backhands<----> Xsane ^ | firmware > > >> I see no reason why should sane-backhands work any different on >> amd64. >> > > Now you made clear that these binary blobs consist of data (and not > of a cpu program), I do not see either. I will soon be able to tell :) > > Does the generic kernel on for amd64 contains the same drivers as for i386? Also kernel driver like uscanner and even usb daemon might be on the different level of the development than in i386 as they really need to interact to different amd64 kernel. A kernel developer could easily clarify this for us. >> On another hand if you are using amd64 that tells me that you >> are running serious production servers so why would you want to attach >> a scanner to such machine is not really clear to me. >> > > In fact, I have no serious reason to run amd64 since I use my amd64 > computer as a ``user workstation'' and the main benefit from running > amd64 is to manage huge amounts of RAM --- as far as I can tell from > the various docs I have read.

The macro you need is already in there, you just need to uncomment it.

That said, first,if there is a website for total dweebs, please post it; or send it privately. I just bought some "Memorex DVD+RW" ; I want to record a 117 minute commercial DVD. On the back on the DVDs is says these are only good for 60 minutes in great qualty; it is good up to 120 minutes, and so on.

I have been playing with all available spooling systems on FreeBSD (LPD, LPRng, CUPS , PDQ) as well as HPLIP in order to document their behavior and write simple howtos for each of the systems. However I kept getting into the trouble with LPRng. Namely, I could not get past the following message Lp@localhost -cannot open connection - No such file or directory Make sure the remote host supports the LPD protocol Is that the famous conflict with the native LPD supporting RFC1179 printing. How do people resolve this conflict in practice? I also noticed that PDQ project is completely abandoned by its creator. Also LPRng was abandoned by its creator in 2005 and then picked by somebody else. I wander what is the state of ifhp filter which is used by default by LPRng. As it is a hardware based project and there are so many printers that were manufactured in the mean time I wander if the system is still usable in real life. Is FreeBSD printing essentially reduced to LPD+apsfilter for small to medium print networks and CUPS for very complex printing networks or LPRng is alive and well. I tried to get into LPRng mailing lists but they seems are not active any more.

Actually probably you could follow article even if you do not speak Serbian as the language is generic and there are only three important steps you need to do. Step 1 Editing your /boot/loader.conf file with atapicam_load="YES" hw.ata.ata_dma="1" hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" since FreeBSD is using atapicam device to write DVD Step 2 Edit your /etc/devfs.conf with various permission. Most of those are needed for a work station anyway perm /dev/acd0 0666 perm /dev/cd0 0666 # Commonly used by many ports link cd0 cdrom link cd0 dvd link cd0 rdvd link acd0 cdrom link acd0 dvd link acd0 rdvd # Misc other devices perm cdrom 0666 perm dvd 0666 perm rdvd 0666 perm xpt0 0666 perm pass0 0666 Step 3 Edit your /etc/fstab file if you want to use K3b as a normal user since the disk has to be mounted on the mount point which belong to you [pedja@ /usr/home/Pedja]$ more /etc/fstab #These are my options /dev/cd0 /usr/home/Pedja/mnt/cdrom cd9660 rw, noauto 0 0 /dev/acd0 /usr/home/Pedja/mnt/cdrom cd9660 rw, noauto 0 0 You do not need HAL for things to work but is not going to heart.

But I do not see why it would not work for a relay host on the local network. I have static ip addresses on DSL service. I will have to refresh my memory on what is a smart host. This relay host would also relay the response to an email verification message back to the originating host. And I am guessing that would be a virtual domain alias in the relay host. I am learning as I go along. Thank you for your help.

I've had success at getting ucom to pickup the serial by connecting and disconnecting the modem several times. Since I don't currently use it in FreeBSD I left it at that. I know it's not the solution but it can be better than nothing. -- Joao Barros From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Dec 8 22:59:25 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F128116A419 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 22:59:25 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from michel@lpthe.jussieu.fr) Received: from shiva.jussieu.fr (shiva.jussieu.fr [134.157.0.129]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8A3B313C45B for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 22:59:25 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from michel@lpthe.jussieu.fr) Received: from parthe.lpthe.jussieu.fr (parthe.lpthe.jussieu.fr [134.157.10.1]) by shiva.jussieu.fr (8.13.8/jtpda-5.4) with ESMTP id lB8MxNaS052900 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:59:23 +0100 (CET) X-Ids: 168 Received: from niobe.lpthe.jussieu.fr (niobe.lpthe.jussieu.fr [134.157.10.41]) by parthe.lpthe.jussieu.fr (Postfix) with ESMTP id 904342371FA for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:59:22 +0100 (CET) Received: by niobe.lpthe.jussieu.fr (Postfix, from userid 2005) id 43C0980; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:59:22 +0100 (CET) Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:59:22 +0100 From: Michel Talon To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Message-ID: <20071208225922.GA87562@lpthe.jussieu.fr> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.2i X-Greylist: Sender IP whitelisted, not delayed by milter-greylist-3.0 (shiva.jussieu.fr [134.157.0.168]); Sat, 08 Dec 2007 23:59:23 +0100 (CET) X-Virus-Scanned: ClamAV 0.88.7/5044/Sat Dec 8 16:11:20 2007 on shiva.jussieu.fr X-Virus-Status: Clean X-Miltered: at shiva.jussieu.fr with ID 475B21CB.002 by Joe's j-chkmail (http://j-chkmail.ensmp.fr)!

K3b certainly works to burn CDs and DVDs under FreeBSD. I have used it many times on several burners. Of course you need to kldload atapicam for that. What does not work on any of my burners is burncd. By the way if you want to copy 8 Gigs DVD on 4 Gigs DVD, i can recommend you k9copy, which is fantastic. Does as well as dvdshrink, and very fast. -- Michel TALON From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Dec 8 23:32:57 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A0CA616A418 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:32:57 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@dfwlp.com) Received: from pollux.dfwlp.com (rrcs-64-183-212-244.sw.biz.rr.com [64.183.212.244]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6A37D13C448 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 23:32:57 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@dfwlp.com) Received: from athena.dfwlp.com (athena.dfwlp.com [192.168.125.82]) (authenticated bits=0) by pollux.dfwlp.com (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id lB8NWt8k001302 for ; Sat, 8 Dec 2007 17:32:55 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from freebsd@dfwlp.com) From: Jonathan Horne To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2007 17:32:54 -0600 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <200712081911.lB8JBniD087279@easter.boulderlabs.com> In-Reply-To: <200712081911.lB8JBniD087279@easter.boulderlabs.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200712081732.54670.freebsd@dfwlp.com> X-Spam-Status: No, score=-4.4 required=3.6 tests=ALL_TRUSTED,BAYES_00 autolearn=ham version=3.2.3 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.3 (2007-08-08) on pollux.dfwlp.com Subject: Re: 7.0BETA4 cannot install. acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retrying (1 retry left) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 08 Dec 2007 23:32:57 -0000 On Saturday 08 December 2007 01:11:49 pm Robert Gray wrote: > I've tried to install both > 7.0-BETA4-i386-bootonly.iso and > 7.0-BETA4-i386-disc1.iso > > on a Dell Optiplex 745, Model# DCTR with > > acd0: CDROM at ata3-master UDMA33 > > The booting doesn't get past the acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retrying > error. > > 6.2 installs fine. > > Any ideas on what to try? > > Thanks > robert md5sum matched on the downloaded 7.0 .iso file? -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org freebsd@dfwlp.com
