I had a very old (circa 2.2.5) MAKEDEV script in /dev. sh MAKEDEV created disk entries that are just plain wrong. Right now root_device is mounted -ro on /. 'mount -u /' gives me 'Specified device does not match mounted device'. I want to try to get the proper MAKEDEV and redo 'sh MAKEDEV', but I obviously can't write to /dev. My questions are: How can I get root_device to mount -rw? or better yet: If I'm going about this the wrong way, what is the right way?

I wanted to install FreeBSD on my 486/33. However, when it gets to the "Welcome to FreeBSD!" screen -- after it has finished probing the hardware -- the system locks up and it won't accept any keyboard input. The FreeBSD install is dead in the water. I tried to reconfigure the kernel by eliminating all non-essential device drivers and double checking the parameters on the remaining devices. Still, no luck. My hardware consists of: o 486/33 with 16MB of memory and 128K of cache - ISA-only motherboard, vintage: circa 1992 o Quantum 170MB IDE hard disk o Adaptec 1542CF SCSI adapter o Quantum 1GB SCSI hard disk (PD-1050) o Toshiba 2X cdrom (XM-3401) o ATI mach32 ISA adapter o 2 serial, 1 parallel That's everything. I suspect the problem is with the SCSI subsystem. I made sure the port address, IRQ, and DMA channel on the 1542 adapter were correct. I configured the kernel with only the devices I need: aha-1542, floppy controller, IDE controller, system console. (There's a bunch of PCI devices that I can't seem to remove from the kernel, but I don't have PCI, so it shouldn't matter.) As a comparison, I borrowed RedHat Linux 5.0 from a friend -- it installs just fine. I, then, tried Windows NT 4.0 -- it also installs just fine. For some reason, FreeBSD chokes while probing this hardware. Please help me. I hate to think I spent good money on a 4-CD set of "coasters."

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I tried booting from the generic kernel, did 'mount -u /', and this time it worked. I was able to remake the devices and all is beautiful. My custom kernel appears to be fine with the exception of that one snafu. --------orignal message---------- I made a huge mistake while upgrading to 2.2.8. I had a very old (circa 2.2.5) MAKEDEV script in /dev. sh MAKEDEV created disk entries that are just plain wrong. Right now root_device is mounted -ro on /. 'mount -u /' gives me 'Specified device does not match mounted device'. I want to try to get the proper MAKEDEV and redo 'sh MAKEDEV', but I obviously can't write to /dev. My questions are: How can I get root_device to mount -rw? or better yet: If I'm going about this the wrong way, what is the right way?

Please add info about the FreeBSD release number, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 3.0. Also add info about yer laptop because if it used the NeoMagic chipset you might have to upgrade to XFree86 3.3.3 to make correct use of the chipset.

Disallow/turn off support for ~/.forward and simply add an entry to /etc/aliases for the required mail forwarding. Be sure to run newaliases after making the changes. This way you will be able to ensure that no hanky-panky is being performed with the mail forwarding. -- Regards, Norman C. Rice, Jr. > > > Grrr... I'm stuck.

I live in Israel and I'm a professional software developer. I would like to purchase and use a FreeBSD Unix on my home PC. My interests will include learning FreeBSD Unix sources, writing a device drivers and other OS development related activity. I'm really a novice to this type of Unix. So, please, guide me with the following: 1. Which FreeBSD Unix release suits for my machine (if any) (Compaq 5050 Presario) ? 2. Do you have books (CDs) explaining in detail FreeBSD Unix internals, device drivers development ? I also need a book (CD) about system installation, administration and usage. I want to be capable of writing my own device drivers and kernel extensions if possible. 3. May you recommend some books (CDs) about the PC hardware design ? This is in order to understand FreeBSD Unix Pentium related source code. 4. Where I may purchase the correspondent CDs, including FreeBSD Unix sources and documentation ? Is the www.cheapbytes.com is the proper place (they offer some reduced prices) ? 5. Should I purchase Linux or FreeBSD Unix for OS learning and driver development purposes ? Please, advice me. I guess, FreeBSD code is more structured and self-explanatory than the Linux one. Am I right ? Thank you in advance. I wish to pay my deep respect and gratitude to all the FreeBSD Development Community members for this exciting product - FreeBSD Unix. Thank you very much !

You can't resize disk slices under FreeBSD, you're supposed to get it right to start with.

Ideally, buy it from www.cdrom.com. It's more expensive, but the profits go towards FreeBSD.

Broken ports mean that whoever is responsible for maintaining the ported source ran into some sort of snag or noticed an old snag, OR, due to changes in a new version of the operating system, their working port no longer works. They are still available for download because there are many capable people out there that have the ability to fix broken ports, given a little time and programming expertise. When someone successfully fixes a broken port, they are often kind enough to submit it for re-inclusion in the working ports list. For the average user with little or no knowledge of UNIX internals, though, trying to build and run a broken port is usually just asking for trouble :) - Ryan Thompson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 6 12:19:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA01096 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 12:19:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pantheon-po04.its.yale.edu (pantheon-po04.its.yale.edu [130.132.143.35]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA01090 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 12:19:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from denis.ostrovsky@yale.edu) Received: from mercury.cis.yale.edu (do33@mercury.cis.yale.edu [130.132.143.247]) by pantheon-po04.its.yale.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA26541 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 15:19:03 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost (do33@localhost) by mercury.cis.yale.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA06384 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 15:19:02 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: mercury.cis.yale.edu: do33 owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 6 Dec 1998 15:19:02 -0500 (EST) From: Dennis Ostrovsky X-Sender: do33@mercury.cis.yale.edu To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: XFree86 3.3.3 and Star Office 4.0 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG After upgrading to XF 3.3.3, Star Office no longer seems to work.

For the color Quickcam, there's a port in /usr/ports/graphics/cqcam. I've never used either version on a FreeBSD box, so I can't tell you anything else.

This _must_ be one of your swap drives, and the swap drive must be big enough to have the content of your physical memory dumped onto it. To enable it without rebooting, use dumpon(8). After that, when your machine crashes, the crash dump will be saved into /var/crash when it comes back up, along with a copy of the kernel which generated it. These can be inspected later with `gdb -k'. If this happens a lot, you should generate a debugging kernel with `config -g'. Check the handbook, section ``Debugging a Kernel Crash Dump with KGDB'' for more info on all of this. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 6 13:28:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA06760 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 13:28:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA06754 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 13:28:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from ben by scientia.demon.co.uk with local (Exim 2.054 #11) id 0zmk8h-000Pcd-00; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 19:46:43 +0000 Date: Sun, 6 Dec 1998 19:46:43 +0000 From: Ben Smithurst To: Markus Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Adding ports Message-ID: <19981206194643.A98489@scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <366A68EF.70D93510@ucsd.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii In-Reply-To: <366A68EF.70D93510@ucsd.edu> User-Agent: Mutt/0.94.17i (FreeBSD/3.0-CURRENT) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Markus wrote: > I'm a newbie, and was wondering if I could be sent an example of how to > add a package.

This question comes up on the list every twenty minutes or so. The answer is probably that you downloaded the image file in ASCII mode, rather than in binary.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I track -stable and ports via cvsup. I noticed that the master ports list of x-11 toolkits at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/x11-toolkits.html has four qt ports. When I use /stand/sysinstall, configure, packages, I can only find a package for qt1.40. I have directories for three qt ports in my /usr/ports tree, missing only qt141. I thought cvsup would have updated my port skeleton tree as new ports were added? Why doesn't the list of ports fetched via sysinstall match the HTML ports collection ??

I've seen requirements as high as 40 MB, so the fact that your /tmp now contains lots of free space doesn't mean anything. The best thing you can do is to symlink /tmp to some other file system.

The real answer is ``don't create more file systems than necessary''. Almost the only reason for a new file system is a new disk.

Thanks in advance, I think it is outrageously expensive, much more than it should be. Depending on where you live, you may not have much choice. But you have some. The one thing you *must* have from your ISP is the static address. OK, that's not even the most expensive thing (the ongoing domain registration stuff is), but you don't get a choice. Next, you find somebody who will host your name server and secondary MX records for you. People who run University systems or some such might be pleased to oblige. They don't even need to be near you--for example, I have a secondary DNS server in England (I live in Australia), though it's a good idea to have relatively good connectivity to your next MX. If you do this, you'll drop the setup costs from $419 to $68, and the monthly costs from $49 to $22. The question is: do you know somebody who would oblige?

It is becoming less possible to do so, as many SMTP machines are rejecting mail sent without a hostname since so much spam comes through that way. One solution would be to 'masquerade' your machine as 'jsp.umontreal.ca'.

Yes. 1 If you start X11 with the startx command, this is explained in the man page (try 'man startx'): In order to start the server in 16bpp use startx -- -bpp 16 2 if you use xdm, you can have several config files and use the -config option.

Heres the break down. This is basically a general user account/dynamic IP/2 virtual eamil accounts/personal domain name. $240 Hosting Fee 2 yrs.. $70 Internic Fee $35 Setup Fee $20 Monthly Charge ---- $365 To get started and then 20 bucks a month... When you think about it, at first, it may sound like alot. When you subtract out the Internic fee your left with $295. This will pay a decent programmers salary for 2 or 3 days tops. As an ISP you would have to make quite a few of these deals a year to keep a decent staff employed.

I am facing a problem with BOCA to BOCA modem connectivity. I am using BSD unix uucp dial up server and client for email connectivity. I want to replace codex 3265 Motorola modem with BOCA 33.6 Kbps external modem. For changing a modem setting, I thing we are doing changes in /etc/uucp/dial file. Following is the chat script is available in the above "dial" file which is working with Codex Motorola modem. Server end "dial" file chat "" \dATX1\r\d\c OK ATDT\D CONNECT Client end "dial" file chat "" ATZ\r\d\c OK ATDT\T CONNECT \p\c The above setup is working.

Plus things like full duplex is only sometimes possible on the newest SB's. Crystal Semiconductor has excellent documentation for their chips, as used on the AOpen cards and other places. I purchased an AOpen AW37 not-Pro. Mine doesn't work quite right for me, yet. Others have not had the problems I have had but they were using the Pro version (which has features FreeBSD doesn't use but a slightly different chipset). But with the excellent documentation from CS I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If I'm right, the patches will be forwarded appropriately for review to be included in FreeBSD. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Make a suitable entry in /etc/pap-secrets with your password for this username at the ISP. If the ISP does PAP then the connect will go much faster this way rather than negotiating the command line. Add these two lines so you don't have to spell them out when starting pppd (you really only want 57600?

Have found ~/.xinitrc is a good place to put my xset values but question about the arguments. The man page for xset says: dpms flags... The dpms option allows the DPMS (Energy Star) parameters to be set. The option can take up to three numerical values, or the `force' flag fol- lowed by a DPMS state. The `force' flags forces the server to immediately switch to the DPMS state specified. The DPMS state can be one of `standby', `suspend', or `off'. When numerical values are given, they set the inactivity period before the three modes are activated. The first value given is for the `standby' mode, the second is for the `suspend' mode, and the third is for the `off' mode. Setting these values implicitly enables the DPMS features. A value of zero dis- ables a particular mode. I've been playing with short values and don't understand the difference between "standby" and "suspend". Maybe there isn't a difference for my ViewSonic PT770. Could someone explain what these terms mean? And while we're at it, does one specify the times since inactivity for each stage, or the time since the prior stage? For example, 10 minutes to start the "standby", then 60 seconds start "suspend", and after being suspended for 60 seconds we turn the monitor off.

Anyway the easiest way I have found is to install the poppassd port (/usr/ports/mail/poppassd) which allows Eudora Mail to change passwords from it's menu. With this in place I wrote a HTML form and got a perl cgi script to talk to the popassd server. The perl script came from a wwwpass package I found. It's also portable, with poppassd running on Linux or anything else the web side doesn't need to be changed. P.S. I've removed some company messages from these things so expect a couple of typos you may need to clean up before it works.

It is weird! Check the LED plug itself first, make sure pin 1 goes to pin one on the controller or motherboard. NEVER under any circumstances plug it into the hard drive! I'd also check my master/slave jumpers on both the hard drive and the cdrom.

If so where should I start looking to solve it? 203.16.236.2 is not answering authoritatively for the domain somerville.qld.edu.au, so your secondary isn't loading the zone from it: [cjohnson@shemp cjohnson]$ /usr/libexec/named-xfer -s 0 -f zone -z somerville.qld.edu.au 203.16.236.2 named-xfer[16120]: [203.16.236.2] not authoritative for somerville.qld.edu.au, SOA query got rcode 0, aa 0, ancount 1, aucount 0 There's likely an error in the zone file for this domain on your master server. Restart named on your master server, and then tail /var/log/messages and see what named's objection to loading it is.

I would expect your typical ISP environment would run into cases where a single server was NFS serving, multiple OS's as well as multiple architectures. And where itself my need to NFS mount foreign filesystems or loopback on itself. I was setting up such a server which has the following layout and hit upon a nasty snag in the default /etc/rc.* series of scripts. sd0d /export/1 has FreeBSD and OpenBSD userland (./FreeBSD, ./OpenBSD/i386, ./OpenBSD/sparc, ./openBSD/alpha) sd0e /export/2 has Free and OpenBSD's src and ports trees (./FreeBSD/src, ./FreeBSD/ports etc.) sd1d /export/3 has common home directories and such so that my family of client machines mount /usr, /usr/src, /usr/ports and whatnot in a transparent fashion, I don't see how I can get away without loopback nfs mounting the latter 2 (on the server) if I want all machines to be laid out the same way. On the server I can cheat and symlink /export/1/uname to /usr. Though that is not ideal. Turns out though that the rc.network script doesn't get around to invoking nfsd till it's almost done. Worse, /etc/rc didn't get around to initting the network and thereby offering even the opportunity to NFS mount /usr, /var or any other important partition till way late in the game. Has no one run across this of late? I spent a bit of time shuffling the rc scripts around and rewriting a fair chunk of it so that 1) scans /etc/exports for file systems nfsd is going to want 2) mounts them right after /(root) goes RW 3) starts portmap and the other needed nfsd programs (note, portmap has be recompiled as static and moved to /sbin. I guess this one slipped between the cracks) 4) explicitly calls mount on /usr and /var 5) mounts everything else via -a. 6) continues with rest of boot. I also turned up a bunch of logic errors, dependencies, and bad assumptions that are either not enforced or lost. (see various blurbs in rc.conf about running certain daemons only with others or when some other condition is met) If there is interest I can provide diffs. BTW, who do I bounce this off of for further critique and maybe inclusion into the distribution tree?

But I stand corrected : your way is an elegant solution to get both versions on the same disk.

Not FreeBSD _per se_, no... but it is possible to install FrontPage extensions for the Apache web server (which is currently the most popular web server on FreeBSD... or anywhere, for that matter). > If it all possible, I want to stay away from Perl.

It's certainly not a good idea to be religiously opposed to Perl if you venture into this area, since much of the work that has already been done relies on Perl, and you might make your own task that much more difficult. I believe that there is a group working on an ASP module for Apache, though I have lost the reference/URL. Anyone? > Any help you can give us would be much appreciated. Firstly, which database server will be used for the project? The three most commonly encountered free SQL servers used on FreeBSD are: MySQL - http://www.tcx.se/ MiniSQL - http://www.hughes.com.au/ Postgres - http://postgresql.org/ (Note the differences in licensing policies between the above.) There are many ways to integrate these database servers with a Web front-end - see their respective documentation. Extensive Perl support does, of course, exist for all three. Another very popular methods is the PHP scripting language, about which you can find out more at: http://www.php.net PHP is also available as an Apache module. In fact, it was the first inline scripting language (of which I'm aware) - it came along quite some time before ASP. :-) -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 04:31:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA23636 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 04:31:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gatekeeper.webscape.net (webscape.net [202.61.64.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA23630 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 04:31:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jhennie@webscape.net) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by gatekeeper.webscape.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) id UAA08027 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 20:26:26 +0800 (PHT) Received: from webscape.net(192.168.88.11) by gatekeeper.webscape.net via smap (V1.3) id sma008021; Mon Dec 7 20:25:57 1998 Received: from webscape.net ([192.168.88.93]) by mailhost.webscape.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA00612 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 20:55:58 +0800 (PHT) (envelope-from jhennie@webscape.net) Message-ID: <366BCCF6.EC114FD@webscape.net> Date: Mon, 07 Dec 1998 20:41:26 +0800 From: Len X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.03 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: help !!!!!!!!!!1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG i am trying to install freebsd and i am booting from cdrom, i get "panic: priviledged instruction fault" Automatic reboot in 15 seconds-press a key on the console to abort To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 04:37:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA24306 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 04:37:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA24204 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 04:37:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 2.05 #1) id 0zmzuN-0000EC-00; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 14:36:59 +0200 Message-ID: <19981207143659.B858@cityip.co.za> Date: Mon, 7 Dec 1998 14:36:59 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai , FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: .gps?

Which FreeBSD Unix release suits for my machine (if any) (Compaq 5050 > Presario) ? Any release should install on your machine. If you're a serious developer, your best bet is probably tracking the -CURRENT development tree (though you may want to start out by installing one of the stable releases and playing with it). All should be clearly explained in the FreeBSD handbook at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html You might also wish to subscribe to the freebsd-hackers mailing list. > 2. Do you have books (CDs) explaining in detail FreeBSD Unix internals, > device drivers development ? Since FreeBSD is such a close derivative of the version of Unix developed at UC Berkeley upon which almost all academic versions of Unix have been based in the past, you'll find literally thousands of academic papers and so forth on the net which have some relevance to FreeBSD. A good place to start would be "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System" by McKusick et al. (ISBN 0201549794), though this may not descend to a low enough level for the taste of a real kernel hacker. > I also need a book (CD) about system installation, administration and > usage. Greg Lehey's book "The Complete FreeBSD" is a good starting point. See http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/os.htm Also have a look at publisher O'Reilly & Associates at http://www.ora.com/ Anything you see there that looks relevant is probably a good buy. > I want to be capable of writing my own device drivers and kernel extensions > if possible.

I've tried minicom with similar results. stty -a reveals relatively std settings on sio3 - the same as what I have my /etc/ttydefs set to on the SCO box. Any suggestions anyone? Doubtless my lack of knowledge of the BSD getty files is not helping my situation - they differ abit from both sysv and linux which use ttymon and getty.ps [getty/uugetty], respectively.

The mail tool 'kmail' has never worked properly for me, both on 2.2.7-RELEASE and 3.0-RELEASE, giving core dumps and corrupted messages. The kfm file mangler is also very buggy, especially when browsing through tar archives - files keep appearing and disappearing. I'm going back to fvwm2 - less pretty but much more stable. It also seems strange that the FreeBSD community pours scorn on Win95/98/NT (rightly so), and then goes and copies it's interface. Very strange.

"We" is my ISP and "you" is me, if this makes any sense. I will be using SMTP indeed.

To what extent is it important ? I take it that configuring a Linux system is about as easy (or difficult ) as unix can be.

We Spaniards are somewhat lucky regarding this: whichever ISP we happen to choose (located in the country, of course ) we always have the cheapest phone call to it, while for a voice phone call this cheapest tariff would cover a range of only 10 - 20 kilometres, depending on the phone network structure in your area. My current ISP is located 1000 kilometres away and the phone call is as cheap as if it were around the corner. I can really choose but still it's difficult: ISPs here used to be known to lie potential customers about their upstream bandwidth and other throughput data. The best way for choosing an ISP here is asking people who use them, but up to now I don't know of any ISP that matches the apparent good performance of my current one. > Next, you find somebody who will host your name server and secondary > MX records for you.

In the DOS world, COM 1&3 share IRQ 4 and COM 2&4 share IRQ 3. IIRC shared interrupts don't work in Unix so COM 3 uses IRQ 5 and COM 4 uses IRQ 9 by default. You can change this by typing '-c' at the bootup screen or by compiling a custom kernel.

Hi, I'm running 2.2.8-RELEASE, and I noticed, that static host routes to directly connected hosts don't seem to work correctly. I have the following Problem: 192.168.25.0/24 ------ed1 |FreeBSD| de0-------- 172.27.0.0/16 | ---- Host 192.168.25.224 where the addresses of the interfaces of the BSD-Box are: ed1: 192.168.25.223 de0: 172.27.10.254 For the single host I need a hostroute to de0, and i thought, this line should do the job: # route add -host 192.168.25.224 -interface 172.27.10.254 After that the routingtable looks fine so far: 192.168.25.224 172.27.10.254 UHS 0 0 de0 but it doesn't work, no arp-requests for 192.168.25.224 on de0. Because i was not sure, if it is a netmask-problem, I tried the same with an address out of 172.27.0.0/16, for example 172.27.1.1, which was routed correctly before, and from this moment on the address was unreachable. It seems that static host routes don't route but block, and no arp-requests happen anymore for that address. Then i tried the -interface-option with the real device-name: # route add -host 192.168.25.224 -interface de0 and it created a permanent arp-entry, but with the ether-address of the adapter of de0, again no arp-request was done. With arp -s I manually set the ether-address to that of the host, and, WOW, it works! But this can't be the way to do it, can it? I would like to have a solution, where I don't have to set the ether-address by hand but it is determined by an arp-request. Btw.: if I route a whole subnet (at least 2 IPs), there's no problem anymore, fine arp-requests, fine connects.

This sort of thing normally happens when you include something in your kernel config, without including something else it needs. (For example, including ``device sbxvi0'' or whatever sound card is without including ``controller snd0'' gives similar errors.) If you send your kernel config to the list someone who knows more about kernel configuration than me may be able to spot something missing. That name looks like something to do with ISA and CAM devices, since I know nothing about CAM I can't guess what you might have done wrong. Did config give any errors when you ran it? that must be in sync with your kernel sources, not sure what happens if it isn't though. Probably isn't good though. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 10:19:49 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA27331 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 10:19:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from qatar.net.qa (qatar.net.qa [194.133.33.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA27325 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 10:19:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sodah@qatar.net.qa) Received: from qatar.net.qa (ddhh.qatar.net.qa [194.133.35.199]) by qatar.net.qa (8.8.8/Internet-Qatar) with ESMTP id VAA07551 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 21:19:24 +0300 (GMT) Message-ID: <366C0E2C.9D8B988C@qatar.net.qa> Date: Mon, 07 Dec 1998 20:19:50 +0300 From: Fadi Sodah X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: include file Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hi i am doing TCP/IP programming on fbsd2.2.6 rel. when i try to compile c-code, i get the following: bash$ gcc -O2 prog1.c -o prog1 prog1.c:96: netinet/ip_udp.h: No such file or directory where can i get include file ip_udp.h, is that FreeBSD standard? thx Pons To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 10:30:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA28502 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 10:30:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from shell.monmouth.com (shell.monmouth.com [205.231.236.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA28497 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 10:30:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pechter@shell.monmouth.com) Received: (from pechter@localhost) by shell.monmouth.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) id NAA14193 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 13:28:28 -0500 (EST) From: Bill/Carolyn Pechter Message-Id: <199812071828.NAA14193@shell.monmouth.com> Subject: netapp and /etc/rmt problem...

The FreeBSD box and netapp are connected by a 3c595 running at 100BASE-TX or 10BASET speeds (tried both). Tried them in both auto mode and fixed mode. The netapp's card is tulip based. I'm running a crossover cable. Could this be related to the card or cable? The netapp seems to hang while dumping the file system. Killing the FreeBSD process causes the netapp to report a write error and a botched rmt protocol. Running rdump on the netapp to the FreeBSD box with the same parameters works. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? Is this a possible rsh problem? I just built the /usr/sbin/rmt from 3.0-CURRENT to give it a try.

Here's a clue - KDE is a COMPLETELY separate project from FreeBSD. Heck it's separate from Linux too. FreeBSD does an operating system - KDE is a window manager w/ lots of other apps. FreeBSD's real interface is in plain ol' text. What interface you choose to use on top of X is your choice. If you don't like KDE use something else.

I ppreciate that you all there are quite busy in view of hectic schedules.So i advise you take your own time in sending the responses and I shall be least bothered if there is any delay on your part. 1)If we install all the libraries for Linux should we be able to run all Linux applications 2)With Oracle announcing support for Linux how far is it going to be compatable in view of Query 1.If at all it going to be possible could you pls let me know if it should affect the performance of database on FreeBSD as compared to Oracle on native Linux. 3)Is there going to be increased cross platform support in FreeBSD in new release version 4)Netscape has announced release for 4.08 Navigator version,but on the download page for netscape for Unix flavours FreeBSD does not appear .Linux 1.2 and 2.1 seem to be closest match. Could You pls let me know if nay thing new is going to happen in this regard 5)Netscape 4.05 on FreeBSD is not as fancy as it is for Windows e.g checkboxex,fonts and even some the the other options.Do we need to load additional font and other libraries for it 6)Is there any tool like online defragmenter on Unix.I do not have any tape drive attached to my P.C to unload my file systems and restore them back.Will it be a good idea to dump filesystem on some other machine and restore it back via ftp in order to minimise defragmentation.How much degree of fragmentation is generally tolerable in file systems on FreeBSD any tips !!. This is prodding me for quite some time because of the fact that i see that netscape loading takes a appreciable amount of time now a days as compared to when i initially installed FreeBSD.There could be other reasons as well but i see that my /usr filesystem shows about 5% defragmentation.How else could i increase the performance of my system.Pls help me with tips or guide me to a suitable Web or Book resource for increasing performance. I am already running kernel built to my P.C specifications and requirements.

On our machines that attach to our NFS server we get messages like: /kernel: nfs server nfs.domain.org:/nfsmountpoint: not responding /kernel: nfs server nfs.domain.org:/nfsmountpoint: is alive again The time stamp between these two is usually in the 0 to 5 second range. The NFS server reports no errors. We have 12 nfsd: server processes running on the NFS server and 20 nfsiod (nfsiod -n 20) processes running. The machine has an 100mbit ethernet card and is on a switch. There are about 15 machines accessing the NFS server and these messages show up on all of them. Any ideas?

Why is ip_udp.h being #include'd? Once you know that you can look in /usr/include/netinet and see if some other file contains the declaration/definition needed. udp.h seems a likely candidate.

I have a dial ip connection to our isp, ip's are dynamic. I have setup the ppp.conf and ppp.linkup according to the faq on FreeBSD's site but to no availe. When i type ppp I get the ppp prop and I can connect with term from there but the routing is screwy. I can ping the Portmaster box that I am connected to but I cannot get out from there. We have a ethernet card in this box that is used for internal lan with ips of 192 What am I doing wrong any help would be appreciated I would like this to be an on demand connection.

You need to. You didn't include your config files, so I can't look at them and tell if they're ok. If the -alias switch doesn't solve your problem completely, send your config files to the list...

I can connect with PAP, and bring up both channels. That's a good thing :) Now the problem. The server I call doesn't used DHCP. I have to SPECIFY all address's. Something I didn't have to do on the 56K dedicated. I was given this information MY IP 206.66.6.201 MASK 255.255.255.224 Gateway/their IP 206.66.6.193 Mask 255.255.255.224 My ppp.config now liiks like this. david@ns1:/etc/ppp : more ppp.conf dial-ia: set log chat LCP IPCP CCP connect tun command set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 115200 set parity none disable lqr deny lqr disable protocomp <----sysadmin said to disable,not used set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT&C1&D2@B0=2 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set phone xxxxxxxxxx&xxxxxxxxxx <<------Gets 2 channels set login <------ Left blank for PAP ( Worked !!!) set authname xxxx set authkey xxxxx accept chap set openmode active set timeout 65000 * set ifaddr 127.1.1.1/0 127.2.2.2/0 255.255.255.0 * add 0 0 127.2.2.2 I assume from what I read in the FAQ these need to be set ifaddr 206.66.6.201/0 206.66.6.193/0 255.255.255.224 add 0 0 206.66.6.193 BUT that didn't work. I still can't ping out of the box. And they can't ping my IP from outside. I know it's down to a address problem. I just don't know were I need to tell my box the information. I was spoiled with a dedicated 33.6 that ran DHCP and didn't have to work about this. My ppp.linkup david@ns1:/etc/ppp : more ppp.linkup dial-ia: delete ALL add 0 0 HISADDR MYADDR: add 0 0 HISADDR Running in AUTO MODE david@ns1:/etc : more start_if.tun0 ppp -auto -alias dial-ia Any thing that would change in the /etc/rc.conf that I would have to also do ? I run a internal lan also.

There is a netinet/udp.h, not sure if it's the same though. Perhaps something like $ ln -s udp.h /usr/include/netinet/ip_udp.h would help things.

I think we'll need a little more info. What does "ifconfig -a" report? How about "netstat -rn" and "dmesg"? Is the WonBloze box running the DHCP server?

Judging by the partial hostnames, I'd guess that the other end was a dialup connection that lost its connection during an upload. ftpd is simply waiting in a read() call for data that will never come. The process isn't dying because the idle timeout only applies at the ftp prompt, not when transferring data. Try turning keepalives on. That should drop the connection four hours after the client disappears. sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive=1 -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 14:23:11 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA24760 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 14:23:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.csx.com (mail.csx.com [206.142.44.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA24738 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 14:23:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Scott_Graves@sealand.com) Received: by tjax0009.csxt.csx.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9) id ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 17:23:08 -0500 Message-ID: From: "Graves, Scott " To: "'Dan Mahoney'" , "'questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: RE: Setting-up FreeBSD on NT TCP/IP network.

Each have their own religious following and their pros and cons. For instance, Linux has more native software, where as FreeBSD is more centrally supported and is more stable. FreeBSD will run Linux binaries under emulation, but, to my knowledge, the reverse is not true. Even some source distributions need quite a few changes to compile on these two platforms. In my opinion, FreeBSD is a much better system ;). Joe Clarke On Mon, 7 Dec 1998, Library Rat wrote: > Hi! I'm new to the whole OSS scene and a bit confused.

Are FreeBSD and Linux the same; i.e., are they merely different "flavors" of Linux much as Red Hat and Debian are different flavors? Will applications for FreeBSD also run w/o modification under Red Hat/Debian Linux?

I am using a SwitchView SV-4 (by Cybex), with FreeBSD 2.2.6, 2.2.7 and Windows systems. (Bought at a great price from www.libi.com.) Generally, it has been very satisfactory. Although not fully rated for this, I find (with Cybex-supplied cables) it introduces negligible degradation at 1280x1024/75Hz operation, and is useable at 1600x1200/70 Hz, although my 21" monitor is not really up to this. Note that this model is intended for desktop use. However, I have noticed some quirks, which I have not had time to try to fully resolve, or take up here or with Cybex tech support (which was quite helpful at pre-purchase time). One has to do with not being switched to a booting system during device probes, which is minor enough. The SwitchView has functions (accessed by double-tapping the keyboard control key) which are labelled as: ZM Resychronizes the mouse. MR Resets a computer's PS/2 mouse. MW Resets a computer's Intellimouse. Kn Sets keyboard scan set; n is a number 1 - 3. I've always been able to bring the system to heel with one or other of the above commands, although I'm not sure exactly what they do. In particular, the mouse reset commands cure the out-of-sync errors. Another quirk is that even when the SwitchView is left connected during boot, a plain-vanilla Logitech 3-button mouse (connected to the system as PS/2) is reported as psm0: model Intellimouse, device ID 3 while if the same mouse is directly connected to the computer during boot, it is reported as psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 0 I'm not sure what the significance of this is. -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 15:07:50 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA29265 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 15:07:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from intergate.luciamar.k12.ca.us (intergate.luciamar.k12.ca.us [209.129.95.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA29260 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 15:07:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dknapp@luciamar.k12.ca.us) Received: from luciamar.k12.ca.us (intergate.luciamar.k12.ca.us [209.129.95.252]) by intergate.luciamar.k12.ca.us (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id PAA05279; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 15:03:51 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <366BEF99.3F3AB9EE@luciamar.k12.ca.us> Date: Mon, 07 Dec 1998 15:09:13 +0000 From: David Knapp Organization: LMUSD X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: graeme@echidna.com CC: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: KVM Switch and psmintr out of sync errors References: <366BDA8C.95C5463F@luciamar.k12.ca.us> <366C5C68.8D1B5E5E@echidna.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thanks a bunch!

Duping modem fd -1 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi. We have a 2.2.1-release machine with ppp-980630 compiled on it. It has all been working OK for about a year but yesterday the disk was at 103% and syslogd was taking over 25% of the cpu. So we moved the file off that partition and after a manual fsck (Hmmm) we got the space back. The big question is what caused the problem and can we stop it from happening again :-) The file was full of "Duping modem fd -1". I had a look but I couldnt see anything so I thought one of you may know more. Here is a bit of the log, if you want more please ask. ppp.log -------------------------------------------------------- 12-07 14:20:13 [3151] Listening at 3001. 12-07 14:20:13 [3151] PPP Started. 12-07 14:20:13 [3151] Packet mode enabled 12-07 14:20:14 [3151] *Connected! 12-07 14:20:16 [3151] Phase: Authenticate 12-07 14:20:16 [3151] Phase: Network 12-07 14:20:16 [3151] myaddr = 203.17.235.29 hisaddr = 203.17.235.23 12-07 14:20:16 [3151] found interface ep0 for proxy arp 12-07 14:20:16 [3151] OsLinkup: 203.17.235.23 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Using interface: tun2 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Listening at 3002. 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] PPP Started. 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Packet mode enabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Phase: Authenticate 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Phase: Network 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Phase: Terminate 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled ccp in phase 4 ccp in phase 4 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Phase: Authenticate 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] Phase: Network 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] myaddr = 203.17.235.29 hisaddr = 203.17.235.22 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] found interface ep0 for proxy arp 12-07 14:29:38 [4426] OsLinkup: 203.17.235.22 12-07 14:29:39 [4426] *Connected! 12-07 14:30:03 [4426] OsLinkdown: 203.17.235.22 12-07 14:30:03 [4426] Phase: Terminate 12-07 14:30:05 [4426] Disconnected! 12-07 14:30:05 [4426] Connect time: 26 secs 12-07 14:30:05 [4426] Phase: Dead 12-07 14:30:05 [4426] PPP Terminated. 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] Using interface: tun2 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] Listening at 3002. 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] PPP Started. 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] Packet mode enabled 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] Phase: Authenticate 12-07 14:30:44 [4677] Phase: Network 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] MS NBNS req - rejected - msext disabled 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] myaddr = 203.17.235.29 hisaddr = 203.17.235.25 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] found interface ep0 for proxy arp 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] OsLinkup: 203.17.235.25 12-07 14:30:45 [4677] *Connected! 12-07 14:33:32 [3151] Disconnected! 12-07 14:33:32 [3151] Connect time: 798 secs 12-07 14:33:32 [3151] Phase: Dead 12-07 14:33:32 [3151] OsLinkdown: 203.17.235.23 12-07 14:33:32 [3151] PPP Terminated. 12-07 14:34:01 [5304] Using interface: tun1 12-07 14:34:01 [5304] Listening at 3001. 12-07 14:34:01 [5304] PPP Started.

I could use some advice as to a strategy for setting up my Drives. I can ask someplace besides -questions if that's more appropriate. Current disk config: HBA is DPT. 1gb hdd, HP 5400rpm C-3323: 1. DOS ('95/'98?) FAT 127mb (starting cylinder 2) 2. Extended, more FAT drives/filesystems 3. 512mb, empty, to become non-system filesystem(s) for fbsd ie, a "data" drive 2gb hdd, Seagate 7200rpm Barracuda ("system" drive): 1: FreeBSD 2.2.7, 1gb (/, swap, /var, /usr, /home) 2: Linux?, 1gb (similar fs layout; dunno, maybe -current? :-) Goals (if possible... :-) Either drive bootable, even if I disconnect one (or one malfunctions). Keep a default OS "active" in the partition table, ie. not updating the "active flag" when booting. I did this with Interactive Unix; it was marked active & booting DOS was a menu selection. I could "turn Unix off" by changing the active flag with fdisk. I can do all this with LILO, too, by installing LILO in Linux's root partition. I can make LILO boot FreeBSD or Linux as I wish here, but it does require more typing; it would be nice if I could choose with a function key, for example. I'd rather not have a bootmanager in the masterboot if I don't really have to... Question: Can my DOS/FAT/Win95 partition be booted from a different drive (ie. LILO, BootEasy, etc.), for example, with my DOS/FAT drive not "primary?" Doc & FAQ pointers are welcome; I've already read a bunch of them (probably not the "right" one just yet :-).

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, First, let me tell you what I'm trying to do. Anybody who has a better way, please let me know. I just compiled x11amp which claims not to work without the OSS drivers. I downloaded those without trouble but the INSTALL file says that OSS can't be installed if there's another sound driver present. I did a cat on /dev/sndstat and found the following: highlander# cat /dev/sndstat VoxWare Sound Driver:3.0-beta-950506 (Sun Feb 5 14:38:12 EST 1995 freebsd-hackers@freefall.cdrom.com) Config options: ffffffff Installed drivers: Type 2: SoundBlaster Type 6: SoundBlaster16 Type 25: AWE32 Synth Type 7: SB16 MIDI ... OSS's INSTALL says that Voxware will be compiled into my kernel but my kernel config file doesn't have anything that resembles the string "VoxWare" in it. Yes, I've tried different case combinations. I can't find a Voxware reference in The Complete FreeBSD and a search on www.freebsd.org only turns up binaries that require the driver. I tried to install OSS overtop of VoxWare. The installer dumped it's core and told me not to try that again. So, can anybody tell me how I can get rid of it in favour of OSS?

My system has been that way so long that I forget what "normal" behaviour is. I don't know if the LED on the front of my Sony CDU77E/1.0e is supposed to be on or off. Its currently green with no CD inside. But I do remember Once Upon A Time I had an LED attached to the MB HD LED contacts. And sometime in the FreeBSD 2.2.x line that LED stayed on all the time. Everything else works. So I don't worry about it. [...] > What's the reason for this? I've got mine plugged into the (SCSI) HD > because, apparently, the LED pins on my Diamond Fireport card don't > work under FreeBSD. There has been some discussion of this. Think its because the Symbios chip requires the driver to turn on/off the LED. And nobody bothered. Maybe one day I'll boot NT and see if I have my LED wired right?

In the Good Old Days drives often had several options for the meaning of the LED, such as ``am selected'', ``have power on'', ``am transferring data'', ``am writing data''. It looks as if yours is saying ``have power on''. Possibly there are DIP switch options to change the meaning.

This question will sort out the good techie ISPs from the wannabees. The real answers aren't quite as important as the way they explain it.

I used them to mount /home/src as /usr/src etc. under NetBSD. Unfortunately, I believe there was some sort of race condition under NetBSD that caused occasional panics -- but maybe it has been fixed (or never was a problem) for FreeBSD! Since it doesn't require NFS, it may alleviate some of your ordering problems w.r.t. /etc/rc. I hope this helps!

Right now, I have four SGIs working smoothly with one NIS master and the other three as clients (the master is also a client to itself). I want to operate my FreeBSD on my PC off of this same IRIX box. I have set up my FreeBSD machine to be a NIS client. I added the apropriate '+' lines to aliases, passwd, and group. I run ypbind at startup (with '-S' since I think there are some troubles that might help that I mentione below). I made sure domainname is correct. However, it doesn't work. My suspicion is that it is not talking to the master. The SGI's are all on the same hub, so broadcasts always find their way betwee them. My PC has a gw PC in between (due to limitations in our buidling's thin net wiring) it and the NIS master. I'm not sure how to get them to find each other past it. I think the '-S' option on 'ypbind' should fix that from the client end, but it doesn't work. Now, there haven't been any FreeBSD specific questions yet (not that I wouldn't consider the above fair game for this maillist), but the way ypbind fails make me wonder if something else is not right. First, ypbind likes to spawn another ypbind process. When I try to log in or su, any time /etc/passwd is accessed, the command hangs for minutes, then it does come back and completes (with no errror messages I can find) successfully. Also, NFS connections act even more strange than usual. The NFS mount to the NIS master I'm having trouble with seems fine, but the NFS mount of another FreeBSD box hangs up for minutes. I can't tell id that's an independent problem or another symptom of the ypbind heartache. And all of these troubles seem to stop when I 'killall yp.' Anyone have suggestions or pointers? I've been over the various NIS manpages on FreeBSD and IRIX a few times, but they get to be circular to the beginner. I have a copy of what I believe is the bible on these systems, the O'Rielly NFS and NIS book. The parts I've tried to use as cookbook instructions are deceptively easy. Pointers to specific parts that may be of interest would be much appreciated too. -- Crist J.

I assume that 2.2.7 is on the first slice and 3.0 is on the second? Boot up 2.2.7 and mount the root filesystem for 3.0 on /mnt... mount /dev/wd0s2a /mnt Update the bootblock to the new ones... disklabel -B -b /mnt/boot/boot1 -s /mnt/boot/boot2 wd0s2 Make slice 2 the root partition for 3.0... echo "0:wd(0,2,a)kernel" >/mnt/boot.config If your system boots 3.0 by default then skip the mount step and strip /mnt from the paths in the proceeding commands. If you need help with a disk/partition configuration different to what I describe, drop me an email. P.S. You may notice that the boot.config now takes a slice parameter between the driver number and partition letter. With the new boot blocks you can provide this on the command line even though the help screen doesn't mention it.

I thought I'd give FreeBSD a shot, so I went and downloaded what I believe is the entire version 3.0 distribution from ftp4.freeBSD.org. The total size is 1.07 gigs (this was no small feat with a 28.8 modem). I would like to do a CD-ROM install, as that seems to be the smartest way to go. I have a CD-Writer, so burning the CD's is no problem. There is enough material to nearly fill up two CD's. So my question is, Does it matter which directories go on which CD? I checked witht the "layout.txt" file, and I have all of the directories included in that file, and then some. So, if you could, please tell me how my directory structure should look for my install CD's. Another possibility, which I just discovered, would be to download the ISO images for 3.0 off of the FTP site. That, however, would take quite awhile to download. Would it be worth it? Thanks in advance for you help. --Mike Morris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 7 23:44:55 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA24573 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 23:44:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from top.worldcontrol.com (snblitz.sc.scruznet.com [165.227.132.84]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id XAA24568 for ; Mon, 7 Dec 1998 23:44:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brian@worldcontrol.com) From: brian@worldcontrol.com Received: (qmail 12643 invoked by uid 100); 8 Dec 1998 07:49:22 -0000 Date: Mon, 7 Dec 1998 23:49:22 -0800 To: Greg Lehey , Quintin Oliver , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: BSDi Message-ID: <19981207234922.B12623@top.worldcontrol.com> References: <19981208121403.I12688@freebie.lemis.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.94.9i In-Reply-To: <19981208121403.I12688@freebie.lemis.com>; from Greg Lehey on Tue, Dec 08, 1998 at 12:14:03PM +1030 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > On Monday, 7 December 1998 at 15:37:42 +0000, Quintin Oliver wrote: > > What's the diffrence between BSDi and FBSD? > > ... > > is BSDi better?

I've been trying to get what I thought would be a trivial gateway to the net setup. I have a very simple setup - a P133 with two interface: ed1 and de0 ed1 is plugged into my cable modem with a static IP - 24.112.137.146 de0 is plugged into my hub on the internal network - 192.168.4.1 Naturally, I want my internal machines on the 192.168.4.1/24 network to be able to use the FreeBSD box as their NAT gateway. This is a 3.0-RELEASE box, with IPDIVERT, IPFIREWALL kernel options. GATEWAY=YES Using a very simple ruleset like: /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ed1 /sbin/ipfw add 100 pass all from any to any via lo0 /sbin/ipfw add 200 deny all from any to 127.0.0.0/8 /sbin/ipfw add 65000 pass all from any to any Accompanied by "natd -n ed1" works nicely, and the NAT functions. The actual NAT box can get to both networks fine, and the internal machines also get access as expected. Naturally, I'd like to give a little more protection to the "router" box, but as soon as I try to do anything without the "add 65000 pass all from any to any" rule NAT just doesn't seem to want to go. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong and missing some key fundamental here, but no matter how many ways I play with the rules it beats me everytime. Using the ruleset below, which makes sense at least in my mind, I can get to the point where the router is open on the inside, and from the actual router I can make connections to the outsid world just fine, and incoming connections are rejected. In short everything is just how I'd like and expect it to be, with the one notable exception that packets simply aren't getting through the NAT part so my internal machines can't get to the internet. the "65534 deny all from any to any" ruleset is killing the packets.. I'm stumped.

I suppose my wording did suggest that the FreeBSD project contributed to kde, I should have read it first before sending it. The purpose of the original message was to see if anyone else has similar problems with kde, or was it just me and my setup. With it being a 1.0 version rather than 0.xx, one would think it is a stable product ready for serious use. Sadly, this appears to be not the case (my opinion anyhow).

If I don't made a mistake, and it is a fact, that static single-host routes to directly connected interfaces only work by setting the ethernet-address, i think it is really a bug. After all the man-page states that it works, then it should work, shouldn't it?

But when a use an audio player (such as mpg123), it says : Sound: DMA timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? I put in my conf file: controller snb0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 When I reboot, sb0 is found. (sbxvi0 and sbmidi0 are not found, but I think I don't need them because my sound card is a Sounblaster Pro, not a Soundblaster 16) I also tried some other configurations, and I checked there was no conflicts, but I still got this message. ( I also created the node MAKEDEV snd0) Do you know how I can solve this problem ? Is there anything else I must do to make my sound card work ? I have seen in the mailing list archives that a lot of people have already asked this question, but unfortunately, I could not get any answer . I have another question: which application can I use to set up the volume ? Thanks a lot in advance, I really need to use the sound card.

As you can imagine, we answer questions like this rather often around here. One day I'm going to write a thorough answer and put it on the Web somewhere, so I can just point people at it. :-) Briefly: FreeBSD is a close descendant of the version of Unix developed at UC Berkeley, which in turn is one of the two major strains of Unix upon which many commercial and almost all academic versions of the operating system are based. FreeBSD is therefore as much a "real Unix" as anything (and far more so than most). Linux is a Unix-like operating system that was developed from scratch by Linus Torvalds. Note that Linux, per se, is *only* an operating system kernel. You have to add a whole lot of utilities and so forth to make it a full operating system. Hence all the Linux "distributions" (RedHat, Slackware, etc.), which are not really different flavours of Unix as such. FreeBSD, on the other hand, is still distributed as a fully functional operating system out of the box. > Will applications for FreeBSD also run w/o modification under Red > Hat/Debian Linux? The wide availability of Unix at academic institutions during the 70's and 80's have led to the situation where we have many different flavours of the OS. These two facts, combined, have led to a culture where software is mostly distributed in source code form (instead of the binaries you might be used to on PC's or Macs). This was, indeed, the basis for what is now called by the very politically correct term "open source". So yes, since apps are spread in source form, you can simply compile them (mutatis mudandis) on whichever flavour of Unix you'd like to use. In the perfect world, that is. In practice, some apps can be very closely linked to one particular flavour of Unix, and may not run well on others. And even in the Unix world commercial apps are spread only in binary form. Fortunately, FreeBSD has very advanced Linux emulation in order to run these binaries, should it be necessary. But for the most part, everything you would probably want to run on FreeBSD has already been ported to the OS. > Your assistance in getting clear about OSS in general and Linux and FreeBSD > in particular would be greatly appreciated. TIA! My opinion is that Linux is aiming more and more for the (power user's) desktop. FreeBSD, on the other hand, remains with its sights set on the server room. This does not mean that one cannot take the other's place in a pinch... just that each has its own ideal area of application. Good luck with your quest. :-) -- Johann Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 03:01:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA12004 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 03:01:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA11999 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 03:01:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 2.05 #1) id 0znKsV-0000r1-00; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 13:00:27 +0200 Message-ID: <19981208130026.A3262@cityip.co.za> Date: Tue, 8 Dec 1998 13:00:26 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: Mark Mayo , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: NATD + firewall - I'm stumped..

I don't think you're missing anything. Selectively protecting your gateway box whilst allowing full access (via NAT) to machines shielded behind it does not seem to come naturally to FreeBSD's natd/ipfw.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! There seems to be a glitch in bash when typing lines longer than one screen-width. When you do this, the cursor wraps back to the start of the line, but does not go down a line, so you overtype the beginning of the same line. This appears to occur only in xterms, not on ttyv*, and doesn't occur for sh or csh. Is this a known problem, and can it be cured? Is it because I'm using the wrong termcap entry for xterm? (I am using TERM=xterm, though the same happens for xterm-color.) Thanks, Ben.

But, when I transferred a FS from one disk to another to give it more space, it went from <1 to 5% fragmentation - AFAIK the FS is optimised to stay defragmented in normal use - which doesn't include copying the whole thing. This may depend on how you copy the FS across - I think I used cpio but I'm not sure... (although I've not used it, I would expect dump to leave everything unchanged.)

FWIW, the EPA regulations simply state two shutdown periods and the first of those equates to both standby and suspend for monitors. The second is the "no-sync" power off most monitors do for lack of a signal. -- Kris Kirby UAH Mail UAH CS Home WWW ------------------------------------------- TGIFreeBSD... 'Nuff said.

Have considered moving the LED to the drive itself, but I like to see when all hell breaks loose on my IDE bus. I currently have a situation where something in the ATAPI driver bugs my CD-ROM to the point of not behaving. I get "atapi (something) controller not ready" messages.

Check under the section labled, ############################################################## ### Network configuration sub-section ###################### ############################################################## look for: network_interfaces="tun0 lo0 ed0" There are a few combinations possible, but you want to be sure that tun0 is on that line inside the quotes.

Under FreeBSD the led comes on during boot diagnostics and stays on. Surviving even a system halt. If I reboot to DOS the led returns to its `premorbid' state. ;-) Similarly, my Sony CDU77E/1.0e behaves erratically when I reboot via shutdown -r into DOS. This same behaviour occurred on Slackware. So, my Linux/FreeBSD workaround for the CD is to halt the system and do a hard reset. Then Sony is happy again. I am rather used to this little dance...

Hi Markus, I like a slackware style prompt so I borrowed Patrick's syntax from /etc/profile and stuck it in my .profile. This works for bash...for other logins that invoke bash as a subshell I put it in my .bashrc. PS1='`hostname -s`:`pwd`$ ' Looks like you need simply: PS1='`pwd`>%' or something similar. For the ksh, I use: PS1='my_box:$PWD$ ' where my_box is the output from hostname... --- BTW, I notice a striking similarity between the FreeBSD and Slackware setup programs (both written in dialog for starters)... ;-) Cheers, Tom ----------- Sisters of Charity Medical Center ---------- Department of Psychiatry ---- Thomas Good, System Administrator North Richmond CMHC/Residential Services Phone: 718-354-5528 75 Vanderbilt Ave, Quarters 8 Fax: 718-354-5056 Staten Island, NY 10304 www.panix.com/~ugd ---- Powered by PostgreSQL 6.3.2 / Perl 5.004 / DBI-0.91::DBD-PG-0.69 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 05:56:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA27557 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 05:56:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-11.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.40]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA27551 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 05:56:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marko@uk.radan.com) Received: from [158.152.75.22] (helo=uk.radan.com) by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.054 #1) id 0znNcK-0005MS-00; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 13:55:57 +0000 Organisation: Radan Computational Ltd., Bath, UK.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Howdy, Have checked the resources at the FreeBSD site and have finally given up. I surrendered to the inevitable and finally bought the 2.2.7 release and book and upgraded from 2.1.5 (which I love - although never got apsfilter to work there either - I'm really dense, they'd have to create a new lower level of 'Dummy' books just for me.) First attempt to make apsfilter gave me the 'missing Imakefile' problem which the BSD site answered. Then the 'NO_CHECKSUM=yes' for tfig (I think), not locating jbigkit (even after installing the binaries), then a whole bunch of 'mangled...' for the 6th dependancy program then hours of download (at 56K), compiling and then a string of 'Errors.." which at 2 AM started to blur and then I noticed the clumps of hair clenched in my fists ... My question: Is there an easier way to get apsfilter working (I can't find a binary of the program.) Sorry for the bother but I really liked apsfilter on my old L**ux machine and would like to use on this superior OS. -- Keith -------------------------------------------------- Sr. Tech.

No, but what you can do is use Majordomo as your mailing list manager (MLM), and then use a package such as hypermail to archive postings to Web pages.

Get rid of the second card...I must have burnt up three weekends trying to get it to work with the duel card deal...once I removed the second card everything was cake...and a duel card is not really needed...all class B addresses must have a AT device to work. Also for some reason the magic port for NAT is 50000 Also from the nat machine you cannot telnet directly to inside machines, if you want to, you either have to set up a internal DNS name (i.e. in-dax v.s. dax) or go by IP, this is from the NAT machine only...you can telnet from outside to inside machines regularly once you have the alias in place and from inside to inside machines normally. also you need some alias options in natd.conf I have included my conf files...so please contact me if you need any clarifications.

References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It bothers me here that several posts have occurred on this (Apache TCP/IP tuning, mbuf exhaustion) and related subjects, which are obviously rather technical in nature, and no answers (AFAIK) have been forthcoming. And we're talking people with machines panicking here, even (gulp) threatened by management with abandoning FreeBSD! I didn't learn much from the archives either, although maybe I was looking in the wrong places. Perhaps the FreeBSD group needs a formal mechanism to escalate unresolved critical support issues to a level where they get appropriate attention. Maybe hard to do in a volunteer effort, but maybe better than losing users, or having the OS mis-performing. aron wrote: > > More info on my little mbuf problem after digging through more docs... > > This is a 3.0-RELEASE box with 512MB RAM (soon to be 1GB) running > exclusively as a web server (apache 1.3.2) AFAIK it is running with the > default config using lingering_close()...

I posted a question about memory requirements here. No answers - actually, one belated (but appreciated) answer. However, although somewhat helpful, that answer was a referral to Sun information, and didn't really answer my questions. I read all the information on the Apache site at http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/perf.html, including that for systems other than (Free)BSD. The link from the Solaris section to http://www.rvs.uni-hannover.de/people/voeckler/tune/EN/tune.html was by far the most illuminating. Digging around from there, I found the value TCPTV_MSL (default 30sec) defined in /usr/src/sys/netinet/tcp_timer.h, which seems to be the controlling parameter for the TIME_WAIT interval (see tcp_input.c). OTOH, it looks like you *really* want to understand what's going on if you shorten this. Any advice? It seems to me that a FreeBSD FAQ on Apache (and other heavy network load) tuning is sorely needed. (E.g., how does cdrom.com do it?). Clearly, the out-of-the-box FreeBSD configuration is not adequate. What is at http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/perf-bsd44.html#detail is OK as far as it goes (although somwhat dated?), but any tuning guide which fails to quantitively relate tuning parameters to load conditions is surely rather meaningless. (E.g, "we crank that value [NMBCLUSTERS = 4096]" - good for how many hits/second, etc.?) I've seen people post that a low end Pentium running FreeBSD/Apache can easily saturate 10Mbps ethernet. From what I've learned so far, in a real world environment (very many slow dial-up connections, transferring relatively small files), this is a non-trivial tuning exercise. My guess is that you would need to be at levels comparable to those corresponding to the quoted data below to be approaching this regime. I also have this silly(?) idea that I want to know how to tune to prevent panics or performance loss in advance, rather than fix problems after a production server starts collapsing once or more a day. Sorry, feeling a bit frustrated and overwhelmed here, but I *do* have this nagging feeling that in researching all this, I'm unnecessarily reinventing the wheel. > detail info follows: > > > netstat -m > 18508/21856 mbufs in use: > 7358 mbufs allocated to data > 11150 mbufs allocated to packet headers > 7049/9094/10240 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) > 20920 Kbytes allocated to network (78% in use) > 0 requests for memory denied > 0 requests for memory delayed > 0 calls to protocol drain routines > > > netstat -Aanf inet | grep TIME_WAIT | wc -l > 7171 > > > netstat -Aanf inet | grep FIN_WAIT_2 | wc -l > 560 > > > ps ax | grep httpd | wc -l > 702 > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 08:07:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA11464 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 08:07:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from artimis.cstp.umkc.edu (artimis.cstp.umkc.edu [134.193.2.73]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA11456 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 08:06:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sramam@cstp.umkc.edu) Received: from localhost (sramam@localhost) by artimis.cstp.umkc.edu (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id KAA25509; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 10:06:30 -0600 (CST) X-Authentication-Warning: artimis.cstp.umkc.edu: sramam owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 8 Dec 1998 10:06:30 -0600 (CST) From: Shishir Ramam To: Mark Tinguely cc: pdesai@wins.hrl.com, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: atm protocol support for freeBSD 3.0 In-Reply-To: <199812081531.JAA26863@plains.NoDak.edu> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hi, i had a related question, can one actually install FreeBSD over an ATM network? thanks in advance. -shishir > > > any atm instructions says " ATM Protocol support not installed" > > how do i install the ATM Protocol? > > see /sys/i386/conf/LINT on the following thing you need to add to > the kernel configuration, then make, install and boot new kernel: > > options ATM_CORE #core ATM protocol family > options ATM_IP #IP over ATM support > > at least and usually one of the following: > > options ATM_SIGPVC #SIGPVC signalling manager > options ATM_SPANS #SPANS signalling manager > options ATM_UNI #UNI signalling manager > > and a ATM device driver: > > device hea0 #Efficient ENI-155p ATM PCI > device hfa0 #FORE PCA-200E ATM PCI > > > > How do i do that.

I appear to need a refresher in the device name system used on FreeBSD, or else I have encountered a bug in the SCSI drive support. Here is my problem: I have a system with 14 SCSI drives connected to an Adaptec 7895 controller (dual channel Ultra SCSI). There are 7 devices on each channel, with the drives on channel one using device ID #'s 0-6, and the other channel using device ID #'s 8-14. Please ignore the obvious bandwidth starvation here... The first ten drives are assigned by the system as da0-da9. All is fine there, I can use disklabel to label them without any problems. The problem comes with the last 4 drives. The system calls drive #11 da10, which appears to confuse disklabel when it attempts to write the label to the drive. It can read it no problem, via a: disklabel da10 (which gives all of the proper info for the drive, as far as type & model) but doing a: disklabel -w da10 auto gives: disklabel: Operation not supported by device All 14 drives are Seagate ST118273LW. To the best of my knowledge, it is confusing this drive with da1. I have been trying to track this down in source code, but have been unsuccessfull so far. Anybody have any possible ideas?

It's not a system call, `cd' is a command builtin to the shell. (It has to be, external commands don't make any effect on your current shell.) > and couldn't find info > on prompt2. Do you know how to do this?? What shell? In sh, the variable you need is PS1, though it's not easy to do what you want. If you like sh-type shells, take a look at bash in the ports collection (shells/bash2), you can then use something like PS1='\w>% ' to get what you want. It may be possible in csh, or tcsh which is another csh-like shell I believe, though I don't know much about them as I prefer sh or bash. There is a section in one of the Unix FAQs (see comp.answers) on how to do this as well, which might be worth a look. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 10:09:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA24194 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 10:09:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from qatar.net.qa (qatar.net.qa [194.133.33.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA24182 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 10:09:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sodah@qatar.net.qa) Received: from qatar.net.qa (ddcr.qatar.net.qa [194.133.35.79]) by qatar.net.qa (8.8.8/Internet-Qatar) with ESMTP id VAA14592; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 21:08:32 +0300 (GMT) Message-ID: <366D5D26.A289FEBE@qatar.net.qa> Date: Tue, 08 Dec 1998 20:08:58 +0300 From: Fadi Sodah X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: caijj@trans.hk.hi.cn, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: can't su root References: <199812081537.XAA16890@trans.hk.hi.cn.> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG caijj@trans.hk.hi.cn wrote: > I want to make a user su root, so I add it to the "wheel" group. > But it dosn't work.

For ease, I have disabled the on-board comports on the motherboard. (FreeBSD detected them properly as sio0 and sio1). The modem is setup as COM2 via the dip switches. Doing a dmesg | grep "sio" I see that sio0 is not detected (makes sense, I disabled it) and sio1 is found as a 16550A, IRQ3, etc. This seems right for a modem on COM2. I issued some MAKEDEV commands as described in the handbook, but I still can't get it. I have the following devices: sio1 cuaa1 cua1 ttyp1 cuaia1 cuala1 This com port addressing scheme is a bit confusing, but I kind of understand it. Basically I just need to be able to echo AT commands directly to the modem, but everything I've tried has failed: echo atdt > /dev/sio1 echo atdt > /dev/cuaa1 echo atdt > /dev/cua1 and none of these has resulted in my phone ringing! I have turned on the modem speaker (ATM1L3), I don't hear that, and I don't hear the modem click as it picks up the line...so something's not quite right. What's the proper way to install this thing?

Security is a very large issue and it is certainly much larger than the question that you asked would indicate. Did you have a question about tools?

There must be a better way, yes? In /etc/rc.conf (in 2.2.7R), there should be a line that looks like: ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib" Just add /usr/local/pgsql/lib to it.

There are some here that have report uptime of 500+ days with it. It is not terribly hard to upgrade. You can do it many ways. Run '/stand/sysinstall' which I have done with little problem. I personally wouldn't do this in multi-user mode though. Fetch new source and do 'cd /usr/src; make world'. I have done this with little trouble. Run 'cvsup' and sup the new source and then 'make world'. I have also done this with little trouble. I like this method the best. Once you have cvsup you can keep your sources up to date by tracking -stable. This lets you get bug and security fixes pretty much automatically. You can run cvsup and make world on a running system then (if all goes well) the only down time you will have is a couple minutes for the reboot. Save your self a hassle and be sure to backup all of your configuration files at a bare minimum. If you use '/stand/sysintall' to do the upgrade be sure to _NOT_ change your disklabels. The jump to 2.2.8 might cause some breakages. I also recommend rebuilding your kernel after you rebuild your system. All of the information on how to do this is on the website.

No, this doesn't seem to be the case; in fact, since if you do that the line that was overwritten appears on the preivous line up, it seems to confirm that this is wrong. Is it likely that I have set something up wrong? I think it was the default configuration, though. Note that this still happens when I run screen under xterm with bash; does this suggest that the problem is with xterm (or my xterm definition)? Incidentally, I am running FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE and I had the same problem with the May(ish) 3.0 SNAPshot. I installed Debian Linux (briefly!) on Friday and it didn't have the same problem.

Actually one of the two residual ftp processes went away in about an hour after I enabled the keepalive, the other in about an hour and a half. Apparently, I got credit for time already on the clock (a mere 22 days!). If I want to ensure the keepalive remains in effect after a reboot, is it appropriate to add the sysctl command to rc.local or is some other way preferred? What is the downside to having keepalives on? I came across information that seemed very negative about using them, but if connections are only probed every four hours, what harm could be done? -- Graeme Tait - Echidna Dan Nelson wrote: > > In the last episode (Dec 07), Graeme Tait said: > > I have a couple of FreeBSD servers (2.2.6R and 2.2.7S) to/from which > > large files are often transferred by users with dial-up ISP access. > > Inevitably the connections fail occasionally in mid-transfer. > > > > Most of the time the ftpd daemon goes away gracefully in a few > > minutes.

Since then, I have lost all colors in the Netscape control buttons and icons. Netscape works fine, and the pages it displays are in full color. There are no other X-win programs running, except for a few xterms. Both machines ran 2.2.7 & Xfree86 3.3.2 previously, with Netscape working perfectly. I don't think the window manager has anything to do with the problem. We are able to duplicate the symptoms with TWM and Afterstep 1.0 - but also with no window manager at all (bare XF86_SVGA server). The two different machines, with two different video cards are: Computer 1: HP Vectra (PPro 200MHz) 128MB, Matrox Millenium PCI 8MB. Computer 2: HP Kayak XU (P-II 400MHz) 128MB, Matrox Millenium II AGP 8MB. Both machines have plenty of video memory, are set to display only in 1280x1024 mode with 24bpp. Is there a known problem with XF86 3.3.3 and Netscape (native FBSD binary)? The following versions of Netscape are known to be affected: 4.06, 4.07, and 4.5. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Can you tell me how the DPT interacts with the O/S? If there is a problem will the O/S notice (like a drive dies). If a disk should fail does the DPT automagically rebuild the RAID? I was also looking at an external sub-system using the CMD controllers in a fully-redundant config. I have used this before in a BSDI system with no problems, but wanted to see if the DPT solution would perhaps be better, as well as less $$$. -Kent- > -----Original Message----- > From: Karl Pielorz [mailto:kpielorz@tdx.co.uk] > Sent: Tuesday, December 08, 1998 1:47 PM > To: Kent Ketell > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: RAID Controllers Supported? > > > > > Kent Ketell wrote: > > > > What RAID controllers are supported by FreeBSD 2.2.7+? > > > > I am looking into building a system that will utilize > > a RAID 0+1 scheme and need to know what my options are. > > > > Thanks in advance. > > We have a DPT here, which works like a charm...

I'd guess that it's the termcap definition, but that's a guess. I've put two files on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub: bash is the version of bash I'm using (3.0). TERM is a script which sets the termcap to what I'm using Try bash first; if that doesn't work, try . TERM It's important to use ., because you want to have the effects in the shell you're running.

Yes, but I don't know if that's what you want. What's wrong with MX chains? Define the ``queuing machine'' as a higher MX for the machine which should really get the mail (by smtp, not ftp).

You probably mean when the 1st B channel is saturated you'd like the 2nd B channel to be brought up automatically. I am not aware of a way to do this with the user land ppp (iijPPP). However, I wouldn't doubt that that functionality is transparently supported in some of the ISDN TAs. > Someone mentioned these ...synchronous serial port the 16650 and Hayes ESP are async serial ports. There seems to be a lot of endless confusion about ISDN and serial ports. ISDN is synchronous. If you send 8 bits out and ISDN port, out go 8 bits, which arrive at the other end. If you send an 8 bit byte out an async serial port, the serial port adds a start and a stop bit to the data being sent. Thus each byte sent uses 10 bits "on the wire". At the other end of an async connection the extra bits are stripped off. Thus, with an async serial port running at 115200 bits/second you can really only cram 92,160 data bits/second over the wire. The other 23,040 bits are wasted on the start and stop bits. By using a 230400 bits/second serial port you can cram 184,320 real data bits across this wire per second, which is more than enough to fully utilize the 128,000 bits/second available via a 2B channel ISDN data call. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 19:41:04 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA23929 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 19:41:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from marlito.erols.com (marlito.erols.com [209.122.180.118]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA23924 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 19:40:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marlowe@alfheim.net) Received: from localhost (marlowe@localhost) by marlito.erols.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id WAA25814; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 22:40:35 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from marlowe@alfheim.net) X-Authentication-Warning: marlito.erols.com: marlowe owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 8 Dec 1998 22:40:34 -0500 (EST) From: "Matthew B.

I know, bad form, but I was hoping the lack of response might be due to the fact I really messed up the Subject line. I'm asking about NIS, specifically about ypbind, and as a result, I was thinking 'bind' and completely mislabled the mail on the firat pass. However, I may have serendipiously been on the correct path. I think the lagging I have been getting may due to host lookup issues in some cases. I've tried to follow every recipe for NIS I've found as closely as possible, but it is still not working for this machine. Does anyone have any suggestions or questions that could help me narrow down the problem? The fact I can't find any error messages makes the situation difficult for me to diagnose.

I have not found a clear answer there. In my reserch there, in the handbook, and in the man pages, I have a rough outline of what I want to do: Take the various file systems on my disk (/, /usr, and /var on /dev/wd0s2*) and dump(8) them to the Jaz drive (/dev/sd0s4). My partition on the IDE HD in which FreeBSD lives is about 1 GB, conveniently about the same size as a Jaz disk. All I have been able to do with a Jaz disk so far is mount one as a MSDOS filesystem. What steps do I need to take to prepare the disk (all Jaz disks I have access to are factory formated for MSDOS, the one I'll probably use is the old backup for my Winbloze95 partition)? Once I have the disk formatted properly, do I need to mount it as ufs? As a raw device? How to I get dump to take a file system (a slice of my IDE disk) and run it to the disk? I was trying out dump, and no matter what arguments I put in, it seemed to want to dump a completely different filesystem than I specified (/dev/rwd). Someone in the -questions archive mentioned something called 'jazcontrol' more than once, but I have not been able to find reference to it in FreeBSD sources. Thanks for any help. -- Crist J.

Well, since you don't say how you got the software, I can't give you much advice about how to install what's missing. But the standard 2.2.5 kernel (no longer the newest) includes a driver for a PS/2 mouse. Reboot, enter the kernel configuration menu, and enable the PS/2 mouse, which is normally disabled.

Well, it would be nice to say that UFS doesn't need defragmentation, but it's not quite true. In practice, though, it's much less of a problem than with Microsoft. And unfortunately we currently don't have a defragmenter. >> I just read the other day that under UFS you cannot >> resize a partition. Your supposed to get it right >> the first time out.

It is possible to increase the size of a UFS file system, but not to reduce it. We currently don't have a tool for this, either, but I'm planning to look at it Real Soon Now.

To prevent people from killing your X-Server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace requires a simple mod to /etc/XF86Config - NoZap. Covered... To prevent rebooting your server with a Ctrl-Alt-Del requires a kernel config change. Where is this documented? Xlock is useless with the sc0 console driver, since typing Ctrl-Alt-F1 breaks out of graphics mode, back to the virtual terminal. Then one simply does a Ctrl-C and they're in... How can this be disabled? Anyone know of any other knuckle-head methods to break xlock? (besides pulling the power cord out ;v) Anyone know why FreeBSD ships with all these security holes enabled by default? I checked the FreeBSD Security web page, and there was no mention of any of these "features", or how to plug them. (Did I miss something?) Any pointers would be welcome. Thanks!

This is fast becoming a FAQ. :-) There are a number of RDBMS's which will run under FreeBSD, some commercial and some less so. The "free three" are: MiniSQL - http://www.hughes.com.au/ MySQL - http://www.tcx.se/ Postgres - http://www.postgresql.org/ Note that the licensing conditions vary between these three, with Postgres being the only completely free one of the lot. MySQL and MiniSQL get very expensive when used for commercial purposes. Each one has its own ways of interfacing with the Web - read their respective documentation. Each also comes with its own C API, should you want to write CGI binaries in C. Additionally, there are many database-neutral ways of constructing such Web front-ends. One would be to write CGI scriptgs in Perl and use the DBI interface. Another (and a particularly easy way to get going) is the PHP scripting language: http://www.php.net/ -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 8 23:20:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA13405 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 23:20:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (henry.cs.adfa.oz.au [131.236.21.158]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA13395 for ; Tue, 8 Dec 1998 23:20:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wkt@henry.cs.adfa.oz.au) Received: (from wkt@localhost) by henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.7.5/8.7.3) id SAA12724 for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 18:23:04 +1100 (EST) From: Warren Toomey Message-Id: <199812090723.SAA12724@henry.cs.adfa.oz.au> Subject: 3c975 in FreeBSD3 (fwd) To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 18:23:04 +1100 (EST) Reply-To: wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL22 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG ----- Forwarded message from Changchun [?gb2312?] ----- >From tcc@rose.dlut.edu.cn Wed Dec 9 18:00:03 1998 Message-ID: <366E1ED0.A594A507@rose.dlut.edu.cn> Date: Wed, 09 Dec 1998 14:55:13 +0800 From: Changchun [?gb2312?] Organization: Network Center of Dalian Univ. of =?gb2312?B?VGVjaC6jqLTzwazA7bmktPPRp834wufW0NDEo6k=?= X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en,zh,zh-CN,zh-TW,en-GB,en-US To: wkt@cs.adfa.edu.au (goodness knows why!)

You'll need to be running at least xlockmore-4.12 to get this option -- 4.11 doesn't have it. > Anyone know why FreeBSD ships with all these security holes enabled by > default?

If you want to disable three-finger saluting from the console, that's your business. If you want to disable vt switching while in xlock, that's your business too. If you want to disable ctrl-alt-backspace to kill X, that as well is your own business. Most people _do_ find them features, not security holes.

If you mean merely logging the fact that a telnet connection took place, then either log via inetd (using the -l flag) or wrap telnetd behind tcpd and let it do the logging.

BTW if your first attempt prints something like (bad resolution or something) the go to /etc/apsfilterrc and correct the last line.

I'm not sure about the 700. I'm using the Stylus 500 entry for the time being, though I intend to get the 740-specific features right.

To be honest theres very little interaction with the O/S - if a drive fails, the array beeps constantly until sorted out. If you have a hot-spare it will automatically start rebuilding to that, otherwise you have to down the machine - and run the DOS utilities...

We have had no problems with the DPT, it was cheap - it's cheerful, and it does what we want... I beleive Simon Shapiro (who wrote the drivers) is also working on FreeBSD utilities to control the rebuilds / array config etc. Regards, Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 00:35:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA20462 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 00:35:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from caladan.tdx.co.uk (caladan.tdx.co.uk [195.188.177.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA20457 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 00:35:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kpielorz@tdx.co.uk) Received: from tdx.co.uk (lorca-tx.tdx.co.uk [195.188.177.242]) by caladan.tdx.co.uk (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id IAA71017; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 08:35:28 GMT Message-ID: <366E364F.94D38EBC@tdx.co.uk> Date: Wed, 09 Dec 1998 08:35:27 +0000 From: Karl Pielorz Organization: TDX - The Digital eXchange X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Greg Lehey CC: Kent Ketell , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: RAID Controllers Supported?

True, but I guess it all boils down to whether you want to boot off the RAID partition or not - for our production system this was important... If you need it bootable from RAID go with the hardware, if that's not a major requirement certainly look at Vinum (which will be bootable at some point in the future ;-) Regards, Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 00:37:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA20552 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 00:37:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail4.desupernet.net (mail4.desupernet.net [204.249.184.39]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA20547 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 00:37:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mulder450@desupernet.net) Received: (qmail 17548 invoked from network); 9 Dec 1998 08:36:37 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO desupernet.net) (208.7.253.106) by mail4.desupernet.net with SMTP; 9 Dec 1998 08:36:37 -0000 Message-ID: <366E370B.1F93240@desupernet.net> Date: Wed, 09 Dec 1998 03:38:35 -0500 From: mulder450 X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.08 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: No system response Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------144613AAB2F08F54EFE99709" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --------------144613AAB2F08F54EFE99709 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=x-user-defined Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When installing FreeBSD on my 486SX computer, I go through the kernel configuration process after continuing from this point I get a blue screen that says probing devices.  This is all the further that it will go.  My system doesn't lock up because when I hit ctrl-alt-delete it asks me if I want to quit this installation.  Do you have any suggestions on how to get past this.                                                         Bill Groff                                                 mulder450@desupernet.net --------------144613AAB2F08F54EFE99709 Content-Type: text/html; charset=x-user-defined Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit When installing FreeBSD on my 486SX computer, I go through the kernel configuration process after continuing from this point I get a blue screen that says probing devices.  This is all the further that it will go.  My system doesn't lock up because when I hit ctrl-alt-delete it asks me if I want to quit this installation.  Do you have any suggestions on how to get past this.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm running BSD 3.0 on a 350 pentium with 64 Mb of ram. Everything was going fine until I added a load of additional swap space last week. Basically I took 250 Mb from my spare slice and created a swap space with it. I then took the old swap space and turned it into a files system and remounted it as /root/ , because /root seems to get full, mostly because netscape put a load of stuff like mail in there. Anyway, things were going fine until I spawned another browser window in netscape and the following messages were generated . (Something suggesting more swap space at 124Mb used, I have 250 Mb) the only messages in /var/log/messages were: Dec 9 09:25:03 fatman communicator-4.07.bin: /etc/spwd.db: Invalid argument Dec 9 09:46:03 fatman /kernel: pid 1108 (kwm), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) The cursor get really, really slow and my only course of action is to kill the X session as quickly as possible, otherwise the system come's to a complete standstill. I think I've broken something, but I love to know how to find out what is wrong. Thanks for your time, Tom Brown.

Hey, I'm sick of Winblows from Microspastic, and FreeBSD looks like the best alternative, I just have a few questions before I go ahead with it. My situation is that I have a 4.3Gig HDD split into two 2.15Gig partitions, the second partition has nothing on it as yet but is formatted to FAT16, the first partition is also FAT16 and has Windows 98 installed, I need to leave Windows on there for the rest of the family. My first question is, if I install FreeBSD on the second partition of my hard drive, there will be alot of space let over, can I still access/use this spare space with Windows/DOS or will I be only able to access this patition with FreeBSD? Also, can I run any UNIX/Linux application on FreeBSD? What is X Windows? If I hate Windows will I hate X Windows?? Is there anywhere to download FreeBSD in a zip file or something like that, it just seems a pain in the ass to have to d/l all those files seperatly and in all the different directories, how big is it in total anyway? Any answers would be most appreciated as I cant go ahead with the installation without the answers...

My rc.conf file has it properly configured (ifconfig_ep0="inet myIPaddress netmask 255.255.255.0"), but I can only ping my host ip. The host is connected to another host via a hub, but the indicator lights on the hub are not lit. This, to me indicates that the network card is not configured correctly... I've read some BSD news articles that state that FreeBSD 2.2.7 does not support the 3C509b card, although the 3C509 is claimed to be supported. I am beginning to believe the product documentation is wrong.. But, what is the solution?? Is there a driver available?

The "./configure" just operates in the source directory so if you've got write privs there you won't need to be root. I usually configure and compile as myself, then switch to root to "make install". I think the configure will be OK without the user in the group, but it won't install or run properly until you add the user to the group. (FreeBSD used to *not* have user "operator" in group "operator" and this screwed me up for quite some time until I realized it.) Amanda rox!

I have installed FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE on a second drive in my Win 95-based computer, the installation is on drive 1, wd2. I subsequently installed Booteasy on drive 0 so I could optionally boot to Win 95 or FreeBSD. However, when I choose "drive 2" from Booteasy, the kernel says that the default boot drive is "1:wd(1,a)kernel" instead of "1:wd(2,a)kernel"!! By the way, there is no wd1! Of course, if I enter "1:wd(2,a)kernel" at the boot prompt things work fairly well. I say "fairly well" because when I use UserConfig to delete unneeded devices from the hardware probe process, the program tries to save the changes it to wd1, which doesn't exist, so changes made are not saved. Could use some help. thanks, Peter- Peter.Fogg@worldnet.alt.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 08:34:50 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA00459 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 08:34:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from schultz.io.com (schultz.io.com [199.170.88.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA00451 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 08:34:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mib@schultz.io.com) Received: (from mib@localhost) by schultz.io.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA03978 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 10:34:38 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <19981209103438.D3020@io.com> Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 10:34:38 -0600 From: mib To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: blanktime/saver & xlock Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Since I am always running XFree86, I would prefer to use xlock for my screensaver instead of FreeBSD's console screensaver.

They are not meant to thwart a determined attack. But by any reasonable definition, these sure the heck ARE security holes, and should be documented in BIG LETTERS right in the installation notes. I can appreciate that many people run their BSD systems at home, or in otherwise secure environments, and that these escapes provide an easy back-door when things don't go quite right. However, since FreeBSD is being touted as a server OS, I don't think it's unreasonable to default to more secure behavior and let the hobbyist take action to defeat the security if it isn't required. IMO, that's a lot better than saying NOTHING in the release notes, OR the online security web page - implying that xlock can be expected to work as advertised, without first plugging a half-dozen one-second exploits scattered throughout the system. Just FYI... I'm introducing FreeBSD at work, a 1000-seat engineering environment, where people share offices and labs that don't lock. Most of the UNIX folk in my environment were horrified by these defaults - but moreso by the lack of documentation pointing them out. It was even suggested the OS not be used at all, for fear that (1) the FreeBSD team either doesn't understand, or doesn't take commercial security concerns seriously, and (2) that there are probably many more undocumented actions in a "hobbyist (read TOY) OS" that could be exploited to gain fast access. I happen to disagree with these assertions, but they won't make my job as "FreeBSD in the Enterprise Advocate" any easier.

It seems there's an error with LC_COLLATE as (in my case) Norwegian characters won't sort/compare correctly. My /usr/share/locale/no_NO.ISO_8859-1/ shows: LC_COLLATE -> ../lt_LN.ISO_8859-1/LC_COLLATE LC_CTYPE -> ../lt_LN.ISO_8859-1/LC_CTYPE LC_TIME This is from the standard distribution. My perl test script to check this is (just using Perl for testing, it's the same result in other programs): #!/usr/bin/perl use POSIX qw(locale_h); setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "no_NO.ISO_8859-1"); setlocale(LC_COLLATE, "no_NO.ISO_8859-1"); @a = ('å', 'a', 'æ', 'e', 'ø'); print sort(@a), "\n"; This returns "aeåæø", which should be "aeæøå". Now, I've been trying to generate my own LC_COLLATE from a standard "source document" from the Norwegian standard commission. For this, I understand, localedef should be used. Localedef however, is only available from the GNU clib, and compiling/installing that is more than I really want to cope with now :-). Why the links the lt_LN.ISO_8859-1? Any ideas? Or if someone has a working LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE for Norwegian, I would appreciate it. Best, Reidar -- Reidar Bratsberg.

Just my two cents... I think it's funny your people are *horrified* by this situation, yet they have implemented absolutely NO physical security at all. This is really quite absurd, because NO PC is secure if I have physical access. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

NO !!! You're confusing 3c509 and 3c905 The 3c509 is well supported (even in B-version) You may have to setup your NIC tu use the right connector with a dos utility (3c5x9cfg.exe) from 3Com.

So it falls to the UNIX admin... It's still a problem, even though you think it's absurd. Of course, physical access is everything. That's fundamental... However, xlock is SUPPOSED to provide a modicum of security. Otherwise it's just a screen saver, and then what's the point of it requiring a password?! My point is simply this: If xlock will not provide the security that reasonable people have come to expect, due to keyboard escapes in underlying systems, those HOLES should be documented.

Otherwise it's just a >screen saver, and then what's the point of it requiring a password?! But, as has been pointed out, xlock is not FreeBSD specific, nor is XFree86. The issues you raise, while mostly valid, do not fall under a single vendor. There's no company making billions of dollars, employing people to respond to your every need. You could, however, PAY someone to plug all these holes and burn a CD... Or, you could just plug 'em yourself, for FREE... >My point is simply this: If xlock will not provide the security that >reasonable people have come to expect, due to keyboard escapes in >underlying systems, those HOLES should be documented. Not a lot to ask... Well, if it's not a lot to ask, why don't you step forward and commit some of your leisure time (or company time if they're willing) and document these *holes*? Some people create their own CDs as well. You could plug these holes, burn a CD, and then offer the fruits of your labor to the entire world for free!! I agree that these *holes* should be documented, though not in all caps as you suggested. I don't think these *holes* should be plugged by default, because most hobbyists have far less unix/hardware/computer knowledge than those of us who use FreeBSD in a professional environment. I do think your people are overreacting. We get people on this list occasionally complaining or demanding support as if this was a product they paid a lot of money for. It's free, damn it. If you can get a product for free, aren't you willing to *discover* any misfeatures and solve them yourself ? Or turn to the list for support, like you have? You DID find the *holes*, and you did get answers pretty quick (a lot faster than if you called Microsuk's 900 number). I'm probably on your side, but I believe some of your people are looking for excuses to pull the rug... If computers WERE appliances, we wouldn't need System Admins. That day may come, but I doubt it will be in MY lifetime. My opinions are my own. I speak for no one else. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

And not only that but do you think the MS Win people(This must be the opposite of a "TOY OS"?) will tell you that having cleansweep on your computer will screw up an install of IE? Or tell the normal user that the passwords in Win 95 really don't do anything? Well the same goes for FreeBSD. The FreeBSD team cannot be held responsible for all of the ports, it is just to large. It is up to the devolpers of the applications to point out security problems, or to users of the apps. Having XLock and all the security features in the world is useless if I can turn you computer off (accidently, my knee bumped the power), while you are in the middle of designing a bridge you forgot to save.

How can they be horrified? On all Sun hardware a simple STOP-A and knowing how to use forth/openboot I can capture your entire memory ranges, or other things. I do not see the kill X server function in irix advertised as a security hole. Or what about the lovely single user switch that was on the back of the old Apollos. Having access to console no matter the os asumes risks. There are very easy ways to go around the login of any win9x and nt box. I work at one of the largest unix companies out there, and it is an assumed risk. Cray's had horriable security. No matter what OS there is. Getting physical access means there are ways to get access. The only thing that I have seen that can be secure at the console is Trusted Solaris 2.5.1.

Is it better for me to stick with 2.2.x or move up to 3.0?. If i choose 2.2.x, should I stick with 2.2.6 or buy / download 2.2.7? Also can you please please help me make a decision about PC's, i might be able to get my hands on a second hand pentium p90, 11gb hdd with mitsumi (ide-atapi) cdrom drive. Possibly with stuff like creative sb16's and maybe even a 3d graphics card or something similar. can you advise me on what i should be looking for when I am buying a machine to run FreeBSD (or maybe Linux if installing FreeBSD fails). So, i am using it for a huge bunch of students (user rates will pop 1000 in september '99), and it is going to have to deal with huge amounts of members. i'll not give them too much space to save their lovely work, but instead teach them about floppy disks and how to msdos format them (correct me if i am wrong, but is it mformat?) and how do i secretley install games so the kiddies cant play games!! --tom morris thomas_morris@bigfoot.com http://www.pavilion.co.uk/users/morris-tim/ and http://members.spree.com/morrisnet/yoyo/ DNA Mailing Lists.

I haven't found anything yet. My questions are does freebsd have something like admintool in Solaris where one could do administration of users, ip#s, groups, printers etc. I know about /stand/sysinstall but I was think of something a little more intensive. If not I would be willing to work on this product if there is enough interest shown. If you'd like a tool like that please email me. Also include whether you'd want the product to web based or just and xwindows program. The product will be free of charge so it can be implemented into FreeBSD as a standard feature like Solaris' Admintool.

I dunno what this is (beyond seeing the miniature DIN connector, which I recognize). Does anyone know anything technical about it? Is it a serial port, or how does it jam the bits in? Please, I'm looking for a technical answer so I can assess whether this Logitech keyboard, which includes a separate connector for the integral touch pad (this is the ps/2 mouse port I'm asking about) would be recognized as a device by FreeBSD. Don't worry about the X interface part, I know that's a totally separate question, one I don't want to ask here.

Windows will not let you access the space dedicated to FreeBSD. FreeBSD however, will let you access space dedicated to Windows. Use that as you like to make the best use of your disc space. > Also, can I run any UNIX/Linux application on FreeBSD? What > is X Windows? If I hate Windows will I hate X Windows?? You can run any Linux or FreeBSD app on FreeBSD. FreeBSD is unix. But you can't run "any" unix app on FreeBSD. For instance, you cannot take a binary program from HPUX and run it on FreeBSD. However, you can take source code from a program on the HPUX computer and make it run on FreeBSD by compiling the software. There are 1,800 applications for FreeBSD including Netscape, Acrobat, Email, Word Processors, Web Servers, Multimedia Viewers, and the list goes on. X Windows is a system for using a bitmapped display instead of a character display. This allows you to run a graphical user interface. Check out http://www.themes.org/ for some screenshots of what X can look like. If you hate Chevy will you hate Honda? The analogy applies. Try out X before you decide to love or hate it. I will say this. There is a definite boundary in FreeBSD between the operating system and the user interface. You can choose any user interface you like to run on top of the base OS. There are interfaces that look like Mac. There are interfaces that look like Win95. There are interfaces that are completely custom depending on what that user likes. If you don't like the interface, you are empowered to change it. > there anywhere to download FreeBSD in a zip file or something > like that, it just seems a pain in the ass to have to d/l all > those files seperatly and in all the different directories, > how big is it in total anyway?

There should be plenty of space left over on the FreeBSD partition, dependent upon what you install, unfortunately MS Windows won't be able to access it as far as i know, though you will be able to access the FAT16 partition from FreeBSD. If you are intending to run MS Office etc. on the FAT16 partition I actually recommend you use Windows '95. I have found it tends to use less space than '98, thus, Win98 partitions of this size tend to get more crowded. :-/ > Also, can I run any UNIX/Linux application on FreeBSD? Yes, you can run many popular Linux programs under FreeBSD using Linux emulation. And a great deal of programs have native FreeBSD versions. >What > is X Windows? If I hate Windows will I hate X Windows?? Is X Windows is a term used to describe the GUI that FreeBSD uses. There are window managers available to make X-Windows look like Windows '95, a MAC, and everything in between. Also it is highly configurable. If you don't like something... You can change it. I thought Windows 9x was fine until I ran X. The MS Windows GUI though it has more support for video cards and such generally worships the ground X stands on. > there anywhere to download FreeBSD in a zip file or something > like that, it just seems a pain in the ass to have to d/l all > those files seperatly and in all the different directories, > how big is it in total anyway? Any answers would be most I just downloaded all of FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE excluding the packages (which can be fetched at a later date if needed) and it looks like it's about 170 Megabytes. Though you can download it I strongly recommend you order the 4 CD Set from Walnut Creek. Also The Complete FreeBSD by Greg Lehey will be an invaluable resource both for getting the OS running and configured in the first place, but it also makes a great reference manual. > appreciated as I cant go ahead with the installation without > the answers... > > >Yours Faithfully > > Stephen Swincer > -zL zorklord@xtreme.net.au > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 15:12:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA10500 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 15:12:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp.enteract.com (thor.enteract.com [207.229.143.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA10494 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 15:12:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jrs@enteract.com) Received: (qmail 5663 invoked from network); 9 Dec 1998 23:12:30 -0000 Received: from adam.enteract.com (jrs@206.54.252.1) by thor.enteract.com with SMTP; 9 Dec 1998 23:12:30 -0000 Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 17:12:29 -0600 (CST) From: John Sconiers To: "Joseph M.

OK - it looks like your seeing the X-Screen saver kick in, not the FreeBSD console screen saver... AFAIK - XFree86 has a 'default' screen saver that will kick in and blank the screen - You'll probably be better off trekking down that alley - I don't think it's the FreeBSD console screensaver that's causing this anymore...

What was happening was I was running xlock and when I'd come back to it 5+ minutes later, the screen would be blank. Move the mouse or hit a key and xlock reappears. I've taken the suggestion of 'xset s off', so as soon as I go idle again, we'll find out. Thanks. - d.

I personally use 4.3 GB for FreeBSD. I used to use 1 GB. For you, I would use fdisk in dos to split the empty partition. I would then use one of those "splits" for FreeBSD. I would not make the FreeBSD partition smaller than 500 MB. If you really like FreeBSD you will fill it up fast. If you don't like it, it won't matter because you will delete FreeBSD. Go for it! At the absolute worst you delete FreeBSD and end up with an empty partition, just like you have right now. At the best, you find out what a great product FreeBSD is an delete Winblows from Microspastic. :) Catchya Later, | UW Mechanical Engineering Jason Wells | http://weber.u.washington.edu/~jcwells/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 16:23:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA20169 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 16:23:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jason04.u.washington.edu (jason04.u.washington.edu [140.142.78.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA20163 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 16:23:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcwells@u.washington.edu) Received: from saul6.u.washington.edu (root@saul6.u.washington.edu [140.142.82.1]) by jason04.u.washington.edu (8.8.4+UW97.07/8.8.4+UW98.06) with ESMTP id QAA15578; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 16:23:34 -0800 Received: from S8-37-26.student.washington.edu (S8-37-26.student.washington.edu [128.208.37.26]) by saul6.u.washington.edu (8.8.4+UW97.07/8.8.4+UW98.06) with ESMTP id QAA06157; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 16:23:33 -0800 (PST) Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 16:23:06 -0800 (PST) From: "Jason C.

Some might argue with me because 3.0 is newer, but it works great for me. If you are worried about stability use 2.2.8. Please note that when unix folk talk about stability they use an entirely different scale of comparison than Windows folk. What is unacceptable to us is thousandfold improvement to Windows. This is no boast. FreeBSD is that good.

If this is the case, I'm sorry. In no way did I mean to disparage anyone or suggest that I expected the group here to cater to me. I am an avid FreeBSD user; have used it since 386BSD. I think the purpose of the questions list is to be a forum for discussing technical facts about the OS, but also to float suggestions on how a great OS can be made better. We won't all always agree on these things, or on how the OS should ship on the CDs - but that doesn't make me a bad guy (moron, newbie, scrotum head, or any of the names I was called today). I still believe that the three-finger salutes should be disabled by default - but that's just one person's opinion. If I can contribute to the effort by documenting these holes, great! If someone would be so kind as to point me to the procedure for formatting and submitting the the documentation, I'll help out.

Well, not, in fact CFBSD contains less than 20% of the man pages. For those of you who don't know it, this translates to about 1000 pages; the total man pages would be about 5,500 pages. > Alternatively, you can get a ridiculous amount of man pages on > the FreeBSD site.

If you want printed man pages, I'd strongly recommend printing them out as you go.

I can't speak for anyone else (especially since I don't even know them), but I'm not pissed off, and I haven't taken any personal shots at you. If you felt like you got flamed, sorry. But I think we all should try to temper new users expectations. I read messages on here from people wanting marketing glossies, someone to fill out several of pages of Y2K compliance statements (these being sent in by people often claiming to be Y2K consultants), ad nauseum. The software is available for free, therefore people should be able to figure out in their own minds that there are no glitzy marketing materials (ok, Walnut Creek probably has some they hand out at shows). Some people don't seem to get the idea that the majority of FreeBSD people are volunteers (some people are actually employed by Walnut Creek, some sell books, etc). If I went off on you, sorry. But please consider the above diatribe. There are many people running FreeBSD, but only a fraction of those have contributed to the project. I've only been using FreeBSD since July, but I'll make a contribution soon. >I am an avid FreeBSD user; have used it since 386BSD.

Yes, but you didn't begin this thread by modestly asking if these *anomalies* (note I didn't say bug, defect, or hole) would be good opportunities for development.

I do agree that your concerns could be better documented.

(i.e. could I run Blender , wine) Yes, there is a Linux emulator that works quite well. A quick search of the questions mailing list (http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists) reveals that some people have gotten Blender working under FreeBSD. Another search of the mailing list reveals that Wine is problematic, but it can run. Wabi, by Caldera, has been suggested instead of it. >- does it emulate windows? Not by itself.

The ports collection is FreeBSD's way of having a library of software that's easy to install without hassle. You just go into the ports directory, find the program you want, tell it 'make install', and the program's installed and ready to use. >- someone gave me freeBSD 2.2.6 should I upgrade.

XFree86 and XIG work under FreeBSD (maybe more. those are the only 2 I've tried). KDE does work. Installing it _may_ take some time. >- if I program under freeBSD will it be portable? how so? I suppose that would depend on how you program... But FreeBSD does use gcc, which is available for nearly every other platform in existence. Supported languages are C and C++. There are also Pascal-to-C and Fortran-to-C converters built in or available. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 9 17:18:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA27931 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 17:18:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from laker.net (jet.laker.net [205.245.74.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA27889 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 17:18:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sfriedri@laker.net) Received: from nt (digital-pbi-152.laker.net [208.0.233.52]) by laker.net (8.9.0/8.9.LAKERNET.NO-SPAM.SPAMMERS.AND.RELAYS.WILL.BE.TRACKED.AND.PROSECUTED.) with SMTP id UAA20104; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 20:17:46 -0500 Message-Id: <199812100117.UAA20104@laker.net> From: "Steve Friedrich" To: "Angelo Nardone" , "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" , "Greg Lehey" Date: Wed, 09 Dec 1998 20:15:03 -0500 Reply-To: "Steve Friedrich" X-Mailer: PMMail 98 Professional (2.01.1600) For Windows NT (4.0.1381;3) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: Printer problem Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 10 Dec 1998 11:15:32 +1030, Greg Lehey wrote: >> Other problem is that i can't desactivate the page that print with >> information of the ouner of the file I think he said he wants to disable the banner page...

I should have pointed it out when I demonstrated FreeBSD's GNU tar would parse regex expressions. GNU tar's man page doesn't say much about it, I had to experiment to find that it worked. pax(1) goes to length discussing "patterns" so presumably it too will allow some form of wildcard matching from the command line. While pax is supposed to be a POSIX utility I haven't found SGI's, Sun's, and FreeBSD's to be as similar as tar between the same hosts. Heaven forbid but I found mention of pax in NT documentation. Found out enough to know its crippled so much that it can't talk to tape drives.

You can set it up so FreeBSD takes the second partition, which will then not be accessible in Winblows. You can set up a boot manager in your master boot record (during the install) which will give you the option of booting Winblows/FreeBSD. > Also, can I run any UNIX/Linux application on FreeBSD? What You can run any executable built for FreeBSD (barring major version differences) on your FreeBSD system, and you can run (the vast majority of) Linux programs under FreeBSD. I run Linux StarOffice (word processor) and Linux Quake2, both work fine. Used to run Linux Netscape 4.07, that worked fine as well. > is X Windows? If I hate Windows will I hate X Windows?? Is X Windows is a graphical interface to Unix. You will not necessarily hate X if you hate Winblows. One of the great things about X is it's configurability- You can make it emulate everything from a Mac to Windows to Nextstep, as well as tons of stuff that doesn't look like anything else. > there anywhere to download FreeBSD in a zip file or something > like that, it just seems a pain in the ass to have to d/l all > those files seperatly and in all the different directories, > how big is it in total anyway? Any answers would be most I believe you would d/l the files in a comressed/archived form anyway.... If d/ling the files over a modem is a pain in the ass, consider the $40 CD's from Walnut Creek Cdrom (www.cdrom.com) or the $20 CheapBytes CD's (www.cheapbytes.com).

It will be automatically portable between different versions of FreeBSD (definetely on the same branch (as in 2.2.x) and possibly accross branches). You can install a Linux develpoment environment and compile Linux programs. If you write portable code (as in code that uses standard functions and such) you should be able to compile it under most any UNIX OS. > Thank you Welcome. > Stephane -Spike Gronim sporkl@ix.netcom.com The majority only rules those who let them.

I'm using 3c509's and 3c509b's under FreeBSD 2.2.5. The 3c509B's need a little more configuration; you must disable the plug 'n pray features. Get the configuration diskette from 3com and under DOS (ugh!) run 3c5x9cfg.exe to disable the plug 'n play. While you're at it, you might as well select RJ45 transceiver instead of the auto media select, which sometimes fails.

With the price of IDE drives so incredibly low, I would recommend that you buy one to install 3.0 on. I'd electrically disconnect your current drive, put in the new drive and install 3.0. Then I'd migrate my configuration over. I'd continue to run off the new disk until I was comfortable. But then, I'm really cautious... Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I didn't have lpd enabled in the rc.conf file. Secondly now that the printer is responding to the *lpr file-name* the following occurs in the following order I issue the *lpr file-name* command on the first page it will either print one line at the beginning of the page and leave the rest blank OR it will print the first line of the page with the staircase effect and again leave the rest of the page blank. in either case above after it prints the first line whether staircase effect or a straight line, it will never print another character unless I turn the printer off then back on again. However, while it wont print anything it continues to spit out whatever amount of blank sheets of paper that the document calls for.... just no printing. I am using fbsd-3.0-release With an [HP deskjet 600c printer] hooked up via my lpt0 in fbsd. PS This printer does work fine in win 95 and I most likely will have to share it with a win 95 box for some time now. So I can't change any dip switches in it at this time. Any remedy?

This, to me indicates that the network >card is not configured correctly... I'm using a 3c509b with no trouble. When you enter the command "ifconfig -a" do you get a line along the lines of: "ep0: flags=8843 mtu 1500..."? If you do, then the card is OK in FreeBSD, and the trouble lies elsewhere. Check the LED on the NIC (visible from the back of the computer). If it's lit up, but the LED on the hub isn't, you may have a bad cable (or a bad port on the hub, try a different jack). If the LED on the card is not lit up, and there's no ep0 line in the "ifconfig -a" output, use the EtherDisk software that came with the card (you'll have to boot DOS from a floppy) to check that the card is configured properly. The FreeBSD 2.2.7 GENERIC kernal expects to find the card on IRQ 10 and I/O port 0x300. I had to juggle a couple of IRQ's to set my system up (my PCI controller had IRQ 10, but I was able to move it to IRQ 11 in system setup, thus freeing IRQ 10 for the 3c509b card). >I've read some BSD news articles that state that FreeBSD 2.2.7 does not >support the 3C509b card You're thinking of the 3c905b. Confusing nomenclature on 3Com's part.

[more snippage] I'd check two things at this point. First, check to see if your path contains /usr/sbin/: You can check your path by typing echo $PATH at the command line. Also check to see if ppp exists. Look in /usr/sbin, or type which ppp this should locate it. -- E=m*(c*c) Ken Keeler "Look, it's all a bunch of ones and zeros."

First of all, the box I'm doing this on also mirrors the FreeBSD website. This part of it seems to cause a problem when trying to search the FreeBSD PR database on the local mirror. The Category part of the search form has the categories for our local GNATS database instead of the FreeBSD database. Is this a known problem/effect? If so, how do I fix it? I haven't set up the wwwgnats front end for our database yet, I wanted to sort the problems with the mirror out first. Another thing that I can't seem to change is the class section of the PR form when using send-pr triax. It brings everything up properly except for the classes I've specified for our local site. Those are still set to the defaults. I've read a ton of docs on GNATS, however most seem quite old, and I've found nothing about either of the problems I'm having. Anyone have any ideas to point me in the right direction?

If so, there any FAQ's or instructions for FIPS > anywhere? If the second partition is completely empty, just delete it and then create a smaller FAT partition for windows to use, and leave the space you want for FreeBSD unpartitioned as this time. When you come to running the FreeBSD install program, you can then create a single FreeBSD partition in the unused space on the disk (using the FreeBSD equivalent of DOS fdisk). This next bit confused me at first, so here goes: FreeBSD needs more than one disk 'slice'. e.g one slice for the root file system, one for swap space, and maybe a few more for /usr and /var. You dont need to create a separate partition for each of these! FreeBSD will 'slice' the single partition you created up into these separate bits (using the disk label editor). Note that Linux needs actual separate partitions, hence my initial confusion. Depending on what you want to do, 500Mb total should be ample for a FreeBSD install with X installed too. i.e make your second FAT partition 1.65Gb. By the way, if you've got these large FAT partitions, and are running Win98, why are they FAT16 and not FAT32? Win98 comes with a converter to change FAT16 into FAT32. This worked well in my experience.

Nothing... FreeBSD sees the logical drives on the DPT (e.g. on our system our 3 drives show up as 1 RAID5 logical drive), and can access them like a normal disk. If a drive fails, as far as FreeBSD is concerned - nothing has happened (so long as your RAID configuration is 'fault tolerant'). The DPT will start beeping until the situation is rectified. If the array is still operable (e.g. one drive down on a 3 drive RAID5 array) the system will continue to run. If you have a hot spare, and it's configured - the controller will start rebuilding onto the hot spare (this is a controller function, not under FreeBSD's control). And that's it... If you want to add drives to the array, change the rebuild parameters, reconfigure caching options etc. - you need to use the DOS utilities... Our FreeBSD system has a 10Mb DOS bootable partition on the RAID volume, which we can boot to, to make changes. > thanks very much in advance. i am about to embark on my first freebsd > experience and i hope to make it a fault-tolerant one. :) The DPT controllers are very good - we've used a number for Windows'NT and now for FreeBSD - and never had any problems... Support from FreeBSD is minimal, but I believe the driver writer (Simon Shapiro) was working on FreeBSD utilities to report / manipulate the controller... The last time I spoke to him was some time ago, these may still be 'in progress' - to be honest, I don't know... Our current philosophy on the setup is - if something screws up with a drive, we'll know about it - and have time to schedule maintenance to fix it... (i.e. if it breaks at 9am - we'll keep the system running in 'fault tolerant' mode until say 10pm, when we'll down it and fix it). If you need a more '24/7' solution you may have to look for a SCSI -2- SCSI RAID solution which would probably offer you things like independent intelligence (i.e. console connection to the RAID controller), hot swap etc. -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 03:24:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA09267 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 03:24:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from front7.grolier.fr (front7.grolier.fr [194.158.96.57]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA09262 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 03:24:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from toinard@cnam.fr) Received: from cnam.fr (bordeaux3-70.club-internet.fr [194.158.119.70]) by front7.grolier.fr (8.9.0/MGC-980407-Frontal-No_Relay) with ESMTP id MAA20792 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 12:25:49 +0100 (MET) Message-ID: <366FAED0.59B1EF50@cnam.fr> Date: Thu, 10 Dec 1998 12:21:52 +0100 From: Christian Toinard X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.07 [en] (WinNT; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Installation problem: NT4.0+Linux+FreeBSD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I did a proper installation of NT4.0+RedHat4.2+FreeBSD2.2.6.

Today, I try again on the same machine to make an installation using NT4.0+Debian2.0+FreeBSD2.2.7. The NT boot loader uses well the 512 bytes but the boot process of FreeBSD says that the file boot.config is not found. Afterwards, the boot process runs an infinite loop telling that the FreeBSD kernel can not be found. Did anyone have a suggestion? It seems to be a wrong configuration of the file boot.config. How can I update this file (the fixit procedure seems to be a solution but it is a hard way...). Thank you for your help or advice, Christian Toinard. Assistant Professor, ENSERB.

This _must_ be one of your swap drives, and the swap drive must be big enough to have the content of your physical memory dumped onto it. To enable it without rebooting, use dumpon(8). After that, when your machine crashes, the crash dump will be saved into /var/crash when it comes back up, along with a copy of the kernel which generated it.

Now, i found out many problems to connect to internet. i have followed the steps about ppp connections in the web site, and i had no good results. I email for help, two weeks ago, and noone answer. I know, i am not paying for support or that, but well, feel free to ignore this email.I think the problem is the type of server is my isp. When i am at the fbsd prompt, i type #ppp, then, i emulate the terminal (#term). then, i dial up my isp >atdt 3705555. The connection is faster, the modem works perfectly. But i get a promt like: User Verification Password: I don´t know what is wrong, my isp gave me a username and password, no just a password, that also happens when i dial up with hyper terminal under windows. I can only connect with my isp under window using Dial Up Networking. Friends, i am on my knees, i am 18 yrs old, i am doing my best for work with fbsd, give me hand, i think i need to set up the /ppp.conf and the /ppp.linkup in order to send my username/password before my isp ask for a password. I put the examples of ppp.conf and ppp.linkup from the web site to my fbsd and it doesn´t work. The isp is running Unix system V, it´s metrotel.net.co and my fbsd version is 3.0. Friends, please, help me, don´t give me the solutions in my hands but point me to look them by myself... thanks and thanks FreeBSD rules :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 06:12:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA26127 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 06:12:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from blacksun.student.simons-rock.edu ([207.51.114.72]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA26122 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 06:12:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from da5id@blacksun.student.simons-rock.edu) Received: (from da5id@localhost) by blacksun.student.simons-rock.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA20424; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 09:11:54 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from da5id) Message-ID: <19981210091154.A20398@blacksun.student.simsons-rock.edu> Date: Thu, 10 Dec 1998 09:11:54 -0500 From: mib To: "Oles' Hnatkevych" Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: clock syncronization References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: ; from Oles' Hnatkevych on Thu, Dec 10, 1998 at 03:37:26PM +0200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, Dec 10, 1998 at 03:37:26PM +0200, Oles' Hnatkevych wrote: > How do I syncronize clock with a reliable source like > some very fine clock somewhere in the world?

The UUCP connect to the FreeBSD machine, ( if is cu i get the login prompt). However when i say "pppattach hblmail" I can t seem to get the problems related to LCP negotiation. 2) I have FreeBSd machine connect to the net, I cannot attach to the telnet port or ftp or finger for that matter, i can however attach to the SMTP/POP3 port. Any ideas why i may be having this problem. I dotn have Ipfw configured on these machines.

I want to load FreeBSD, compile a custom kernel, and get the OS (executables and everything) as small as possible. Then I want to be able to just image this onto a HDD or more likely, one of those disk-on-a-chip things. Loading FreeBSD, making the kernel, and making it small is easy, but I don't have a clue as to how I am going to image this onto another HDD or that chip without loading from the CD or something like that. I would appreciate any advise you could give me. Thanks.

It doesn't put the zone files anywhere. How could it, before you've created them? You have to create them and put them somewhere, and then use the "directory" option to tell it where to look. In the options section of the named.conf file, you'll see something that says 'directory "/etc/namedb"'. This is where named will look for your zone files.

What is the correct syntax for this - is it like dumpdev="/dev/rda0s1a" (raw mode?) if say /dev/da0s1a is a swap partition? I have 2 swap partitions on da0 and da1 *exactly* the size of memory (262144*1024 bytes). Will this work in a crash, or does the swap partition need to be marginally larger than memory?

Great, Thank you. I must have missed it when reading everything the other day. Anyone reading currently running it on an Alpha based system? How do you like FreeBSD running on it so far? Hope to have parts in, and FreeBSD installed on this thing by early this next week. Wish me luck :) Thank you again for the fast reply. -Nevin Lyne - admin@gippy.net -G.I.S., Inc. - http://www.gippy.net/ -There are two rules for ultimate success in life. -1.

I'm not a vet, but I support vets greatly - several of my high school friends never came home from Southeast Asia. Still, SPAM is SPAM and inappropriate is inappropriate. I get *really* pissed when folks SPAM technical newsgroups. Whenever that happens, I track down the culprit and complain to their provider and the provider's upstream. I'd *really* like to see a lot of other folks on the list do likewise. It's only through taking action of this sort that SPAM gets treated as the problem it is.

X-Mailer: VM 6.22 under 19.15 XEmacs Lucid Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have two FreeBSD boxes on a LAN. Box A (a laptop) has a PCMCIA ethernet card with a dongle that has fallen and been beaten up quite a bit and a connector that is not particularly secure. Box B has an NE2000 card in it. Both are connected to a router off to the internet. When using either machine independently of the other and connecting to outside hosts (remote log-ins, ftp, web, etc.) I never have problems, but recently I've found that heavy traffic between A and B raises errors on B like: de0: receive: 00:e0:98:01:09:72: bad crc de0: receive: 00:e0:98:01:09:72: alignment error de0: receive: 00:e0:98:01:09:72: alignment error If B reports too many of these errors (5-10) it just stops working completely with no further errors reported. (Nothing will fix the situation except for power off/on. Just reboot won't do it. [NFS doesn't like this at all!]) On the other hand, A, which is the machine that I suspect is actually causing the trouble, since it has a suspect ethernet card, continues on its merry way. My question: Is this a driver problem, i.e. the driver is not being robust to bad packets? If so, this seems like a "bad thing" for FreeBSD "stability". Or is it a hardware tolerance problem? The fact that a bad ethernet packet here or there apparently hoses my little LAN is a rude annoyance. Shouldn't the system be able to deal with this better? thanks, David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 09:45:52 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA20097 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 09:45:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-12.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA20092 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 09:45:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marko@uk.radan.com) Received: from [158.152.75.22] (helo=uk.radan.com) by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.054 #1) id 0zo7WM-0007Kf-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 14:56:51 +0000 Organisation: Radan Computational Ltd., Bath, UK.

If user ppp is running and I open the Netscape mail (messenger) window either from the browser menu or the tool bar a the bottom of the window it takes about 60 seconds before the window appears. During this time the browser window freezes, if the cursor is moved over the browser it changes to the stop-watch, and if the browser window is covered by another window and then uncovered the browser is not repainted. It doesn't matter whether I'm connected to my ISP or not, ppp just needs to be started. Communicator 4.05 had the same problem. 2. Is it possible to make Communicator for FreeBSD share mail folders with the Windows version? Out of necessity my machine triple boots 95/NT4/FreeBSD 2.2.7. I have Communicator 4.5 installed in all 3 OS's. The 2 Windows versions use the mail folder on the FAT partition (drive C:). In FreeBSD I have drive C: mounted on /drvC and if I set the mail folder in Preferences to use the one on /drvC, and start Communicator mail it will display the contents of the Inbox, I can scroll the header list, select and view messages. If I then changed folders, say to Trash (still on /drvC), it will display, list etc the contents. However when I change back to Inbox the message "building summary file for Inbox" appears and gets to 100%, the correct number of messages is displayed in the toolbar, but the list of headers never appears. This is a slight improvement on 4.05 which use to hang at this point, needing a ``kill -9'' to escape. It would be a great benefit if this would work as it would mean that I could get e-mail under any OS and have the messages available in the other 2 as well. Can anyone help resolve these problems? TIA -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K. It was this thinking that caused the problem in the first place. Mark Ovens, CNC Applications Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd.

I recently installed 2.2.7 from the net and built a custom kernel. I'm quite happy with it so far and was thinking of buying the 3.0 cd. I'm not running a server right now and have no plans for that in the near future. The boot drive is a scsi which is the second drive. My questions are: 1. Would it be better to do an "upgrade" install, or backup some config files and just install from scratch? If you do an upgrade install is it possible to get into a situation where you can't boot at all due to kernel differences? 2. Would I need to cvsup right after the install to get bugs fixed that exist on the release cd? Again assuming no server - just internet connectivity issues. 3. Is the aout-to-elf conversion mandatory? Hazardous?

Feel free to post the relevant logs. There's some info on http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html and http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/userppp.html The most common authentication problem that people have is that they ``enable'' pap or chap. This makes ppp demand that the peer authenticates themselves.

I may have read your original mail wrongly, in which case I apologize... If your goal is to run FreeBSD on the 68hc11 (with the spec you've provided) - I don't think it's possible (due to the limited RAM, and the actual CPU)... With FreeBSD it's certainly possible (through the cross compilers etc.) to write 68hc11 code, and move it over to the chip - but it's not possible to compile FreeBSD to run on the 68hc11... -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 10:58:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA00179 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 10:58:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from sin.sloth.org (sin.sloth.org [207.0.237.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA00172 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 10:58:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from chris@sin.sloth.org) Received: from localhost (chris@localhost) by sin.sloth.org (8.9.1/8.8.7) with SMTP id NAA00819 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 13:58:25 -0500 Date: Thu, 10 Dec 1998 13:58:25 -0500 (EST) From: Chris McCoy To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: named Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG my domain is fris.net if i wanted to add another machine to the network would this be eright newmachine.fris.net.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi - I don't want to start any wars, but I haven't been able to find the information I'm looking for. Here's my situation: I come from a Solaris background and therefore am very wary of ports/packages/etc. since they don't let you tweak all the options, etc. I do like the notion of ports though since it seems to give you a bit more flexibility, someone's done the necessary hacking to get it to work, and they are easy to remove later. However - it doesn't seem like there is any way to make all the little tweaks (say for instance, editing config.h for tcsh to set keybindings to emacs, rather than vi). It also doesn't seem like there is a way to configure where you want everything to be installed. I haven't delved too far into it, and I'm pretty new to FreeBSD so maybe I'm just missing it... Any one have any insights?

You'll probably find a login-script attached for that ISP (I forget how to get there from the menus..); and the expect-send sequences to log into your ISP should be pretty obvious from it.

It's not FreeBSD that you need to worry about. X windows is provided by XFree86 for free (ships with FreeBSD) or you can buy a commercial X server. See http://XFree86.org/3.3.3/ for READMEs that describe what chips they support. I just ran /stand/sysinstall and found the card list. It lists three Fire models: Diamond Fire GL 1000 Diamond Fire GL 1000 Pro Diamond Fire GL 3000 It claims these are supported by it's 3DLabs server, apparently you can use the standard XF86_SVGA driver which supports many chipsets, and has deprecated many of the accelerated drivers. Look at http://XFree86.org/3.3.3/3DLabs.html for specifics. There are also companies producing commercial X servers (some cost $100US, some a little higher) Steve Friedrich Viva la FreeBSD!!

Yea, I tried that. I even added three of the devices to /etc/fbtab so it would change the permissions even more liberally when I log in as the average user. Still no luck. It appears that it's simply not possible to mount floppies or CDROMs as an average user under 2.2.8.

I'd say this is the expected behaviour, and I'd like it that way. two ways to solve your problem: use 'exec startx' instead of 'startx' to start your server, so a controlC or controlZ will just drop you to the login prompt. or... run X from init (put it in /etc/ttys), so ppl have their login there, and not on a text prompt.

We have a REAL need for this kind of BIG memory (and, as usual, what's BIG today is small potatoes tomorrow). Polywell, www.polywell.com, sells just such a 450NX-based machine, and AMI has a 450NX-based motherboard which can go to 4GB on one board (16 DIMM slots) with the option of a second 4GB board for a total of 8GB! Will FreeBSD run (or is it planned to run) on such systems and how would it (or WinNT for that matter) access memory above the 4GB limit of a 32bit address space? Perhaps the memory in one 4GB chunk is accessible on a given processor but not on the others so a Quad CPU machine really acts more like two or several machine in the same chassis? Any insights would be most welcome. Please respond directly to me as I don't monitor the -questions mail list.

I've heard of problems running 2 GB or more of memory (this is the point where the total memory size is negative in 32 bit signed arithmetic). I'm sure that the problems are solvable, but you might be the one who has to solve them.

This machine is 300Mhz with 128MB RAM and 3 4.5gig SCSI drives. We intend to use this machine for a lot of data analysis & other grunt work, so we set it up with a decent amount of swap space. Each disk has a 250MB swap partition on it. When I tried to run a fairly memory intensive app (something that'll need about 300MB to run) the app choked after only a few seconds with a "Virtual memory exceeded in `new'" error. In monitoring the system using the top & sysinfo commands I was amazed to find that 0% of the swap space on all 3 drives is being used when the app ran out of memory. I'm fairly sure the swap partitions were set up properly - they're listed in /etc/fstab, swapper is running, etc. So why does it appear that the swap space isn't being used at all? I had more luck testing this app on an NT workstation with only 32MB RAM even though it eventually filled up the swap file entirely. -Bruce ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 16:21:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA15709 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 16:21:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from esmeralda.xaa.iae.nl (esmeralda.xaa.iae.nl [194.151.75.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA15704 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 16:21:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd@xaa.iae.nl) Received: from ariel.xaa.iae.nl (ariel.xaa.iae.nl [194.151.75.10]) by esmeralda.xaa.iae.nl (Postfix) with ESMTP id BB5861B1; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 01:21:35 +0100 (MET) Received: by ariel.xaa.iae.nl (Postfix, from userid 1008) id 0CF0B3EC3; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 01:21:34 +0100 (CET) Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 01:21:34 +0100 From: Mark Huizer To: Bruce Pennypacker , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: swap space not being used?

I found a mail in the archives stating that mount_msdos > was setuid, because it was likely to be used by non-admins, but my For floppies the easiest thing to do (IMHO) is to install the mtools port /usr/ports/emulators/mtools, and open the permissions on the floppy device /dev/rfd0 for the appropriate user. Probably best to create a group "floppy", add the users to that group, "chgrp floppy /dev/rfd0" and "chmod g+rw /dev/rfd0" For the CDROM, search the archives again but look for how to set up amd to automount the CDROM. The default amd config does a good job automounting NFS partitions. Wish it did CDOM too. What I haven't seen mentioned is how to umount an amd-mounted fs on demand (vs. the default timeout). I use symbolic links to /host/hostname/filesystem/ports/distfiles to share my downloaded distfile collection between several FreeBSD systems. Automagically mounts and umounts the host as needed. And over comes a problem old FreeBSD had of not being able to recover if a remote host serving a mounted filesystem disappeared. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Last time I looked they offered their cross compiler on x86 NetBSD. I asked for FreeBSD. Looking at their form for a demo download I still see NetBSD, no FreeBSD, but Linux is added. And MacOS is back! My Introl C-11 (from 1992 or 1993) is hosted under MPW on a Mac. You can get a non-commercial license to use Introl C for only $150. IMHO that's a great value. There is/was several very active 68HC11 email list. Think they merged. And at some point I lost touch. But I know Motorola has posted C source code for an HC11 assembler on an ftp site somewhere.

I plan on using this to download 2.2.8 and to keep track of personal development projects. My question is how do I set this sucker up? From my reading it assumes that I know what a repository is and how to set on up. Apparently having a local repository makes it easier to get updates from freebsd.org. What exactly gets put on my machine when I do an update? Does this mean all the base sources, and I would compile the whole OS + the kernel?

If it doesn't show up, the executable isn't on your system. You may have missed a prompt during the installation process. Try experimenting with sysinstall to get the executable installed properly. It might be somewhere else on your system, for some reason; try `find * | grep ppp', and see if an executable called `ppp' shows up. If it does, add its location to the path statement in ~/.login and ~/.profile and see if that helps. If the executable is in /usr/sbin, and its mode is set correctly (-r-sr-xr--), try running (after su) `./ppp'. If this works, your path variable isn't properly set. Add /usr/sbin to the path definition in `~/.login' and `~/.profile', then log out and log back in. Try again. Also, make sure that you are su-ing properly. Your administrative user should be on the `wheel' group in order to su root. >ARGH. >I'd throw this machine out the window if I didn't live on the first >floor. Well, throwing a computer anywhere, for any reason, will probably break it. But don't. Have patience, and give it some time. Read the documentation. When you get stuck, ask a question. And don't be afraid to experiment; that is, after all, the reason why we use these `alternative' operating systems. >thank you so very much.

I followed the suggestions of many, and now I think I've figured out how to switch paths. I've even figured out how to change shells. Whee. Now getting ppp to acutally work, that's a challenge on its own, one I'll try to attack tomorrow monring. For now I'll flip through this Unix for the Impatient book and try to figure out more basic commands. It's a lot of work, setting up an alternative operating system. I mean, I've worked with macs for years, barely even touched a pc. Then I found a pentium 133 case on the street, got someone to test it for me, and finally took up my friend's suggestion to install a unix on it. I must say that making this machine behave has been a complete pain in the ass. On the other hand, I've been having a lot of fun screwing around with it, tons more fun than I did messing with stuff like photoshop on my old powerpc. Anyway, thanks for all of the help, and I'm sure you'll be hearing lots more from me over the next couple of months. thanks again, alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 10 20:46:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA13247 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 20:46:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ogurok.com (ogurok.com [208.212.72.37]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA13242 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 20:46:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from oleg@ogurok.com) Received: from localhost (oleg@localhost) by ogurok.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id XAA05535 for ; Thu, 10 Dec 1998 23:54:58 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from oleg@ogurok.com) Date: Thu, 10 Dec 1998 23:54:58 -0500 (EST) From: Oleg Ogurok To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: lpr: copy file is too large Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there.

When I try to 'ping' someone (ICMP), it just sits there. I can see that its sending something out to the modem, but I'm not getting a response. I think this has something to do with the routing tables, but i looked at 'netstat -r' and it seems ok. The only thing is that the IP I specified in /etc/ppp/options is of the dialup server, and I'm not sure if it can act as a gateway. I've tried talking to my ISP, but the tec support staff aren't sure what UNIX is, so obviously don't know how to setup pppd.

The console only uses plain text. Do however, get the CD-ROM drive (IDE works fine) but you may have a problem with the drive under 2.2.7 or lower, as they can't see over 8 GB. 2.2.8 does not have this restriction. That Pentium-90 should run just fine. I would avoid using 3.0-R as it is still more of a development release. (Like me who has to install off of a AIC-7890.) I hear buying "The Complete FreeBSD" edition from Walnut Creek is the best way to go. Make sure you get your partition sizes right the first time, read lots of documentation ("The Complete FreeBSD", man, FAQ, handbook, etc.) Especially if you are a first time installer. As for games, if you don't add the student accounts to the games group they won't be able to play them. (I think.)

You didn't read my message carefully. I'd like it to be required that the *list* address appear in the To or Cc header--this has nothing to do with whether you have to be subscribed to post a message. All of the spam that this list has received over the last several months has been blind copied to the list; a requirement that the list address appear in the To or Cc header would have stopped all of it. Other lists to which I'm subscribed have this requirement.

I've built and installed GhostScript (2.6.2) on a 2.2.8-STABLE system. It's going against an HP DeskJet 520. I'm using the djet500 device type. This setup is printing the examples in the GhostScript build directory just fine (I really like the tiger). But when I do something like "groff -man -l foobar.1", I get an otherwise nicely formatted man page that has a =tiny= font. Like, maybe 4 point. Saves paper, but it's too hard on these old eyes.

I had that ethernet card on my FreeBSD box. First of all it was slow and I had often problems of network hangs, the driver or the card itself (I dunno which of the two or both ?) is very buggy, so I had to change ethernet card.

Anyway as far as a I knoe in the official 3.0 RELEASE for alpha the boot disk have to be taken from the NetBSD distribution, then new SNAPSHOT have being released every 3 weeks, the latest SNAPSHOT for alpha is dated 6 December, and this SNAPSHOT support the boot disk mechanism, actually 2 disks. One boot disk and one compressed image of the root filesystem, they are dumped in 2 different disks otherwise they would not fit in only 1 disk. Many many improovement are being brought every week I think... myself anyway I have an alpha Multia 166MHz with Digital UNix and I WAnted to try FreeBSD but I decided to wait for a more stable and well supported release. Anyway more will be the people trying the new alpha SNAPSHOTS and more the process of correcting bugs and improoving the snapshots will be efficient... so who knows... maybe I will try the new snapshot soon :) Rick On Thu, 10 Dec 1998, Administrator wrote: > >I have a Digital Alpha machine that I would like to load FreeBSD on.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all. I installed 2.2.7 on a HP Netserver E30 P5/166 without any trouble (I've done it many times on machines of the same kind) to replace an old 486/66 with 2.2.5. The system is our internal SMTP/DNS/PPP and fax server. I use also Samba, NFS and other applications/services. The fax server is a mail gateway written by myself, based on the last version of mgetty+sendfax, ghostscript and mpack. There is also a front-end for a Windows application which prints on Samba in PS and the PS source is delivered to a message-builder daemon via pseudo-terminals (I did it for trial). As you can see the configuration is at least a little bit complex, but everything worked pretty well with 2.2.5 for months. With 2.2.7 I've got a strange problem which I'm unable to solve: the fax server logs everything with syslog, INFO and ERR levels, default USER facility. I use the log for statistical purposes. The problem is that since I moved on the new 2.2.7 box, sometimes syslog works and sometimes don't. Often syslog doesn't work in the morning, before 10:40-11:10 AM (!?), but I can't see a definite rule. I tried to change facility to LOCAL0/1/etc, but it doesn't matter. Of course newsyslog isn't involved and there aren't processes ran by CRON that clear the log. Any ideas? --- Stefano Riva Software & Systems Engineer Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

Not make floppy from existing image On default, dd reads 512 byte blocks. So if you want to make a image from a floppy, dd if=/dev/fd0 of=whatever.img will create a image of whatever is on the floppy.

I have tried your suggestion and also have tried the following in; "/usr/local/libexec/if-simple" EXamples I have tried: This is said to mostly work with HP printers /bin/cat && printf "\f" && exit 0 exit 2 The next was the generic/default line in the ; "/usr/local/libexec/if-simple" All of the above lines has note affected my problem for better or worse. The HP 600c printer still continues to print one horizontal line at the very top of the page OR print a staircase effect. After the printer prints either of the above lines one time... it will not print another character staircase or otherwise unless i turn the power off then on again. And then the cycle starts over. Ps I am using Freebsd-3.0 release & the printer does print a test page as it is designed to do, via the HP method from the front button on the printer itself. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jonathan Chen [mailto:jonc@pinnacle.co.nz] > Sent: Thursday, December 10, 1998 3:00 PM > To: Netsmart > Cc: Freebsd-Questions > Subject: RE: FreeBSD and Printer > > > On Thu, 10 Dec 1998, Netsmart wrote: > > > in either case above after it prints the first line whether > staircase effect > > or a straight line, it will never print another character > unless I turn the > > printer off then back on again.

Usually it's only the low end TA's (aka "digital modems") that use async. If you are talking about the standard Telstra issue 3com then it is async. Even so you need only worry about going beyond the standard UART if you intend on running MPPP or similar to utilise both B channels, otherwise 115kbps should be fine. Have you considered going for an internal card?

Not really. It was removed from the source tree. From the CVS Log: Kill netccitt. The code is ancient, nobody wants to maintain it, and it doesn't compile cleanly. It's still in the CVS repository in the Attic, so you can still look at it. Use http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi to view the CVS repository. You can also download your own copy of the CVS repository if you want.

There is at least one new user who learned the salute first, prior to understanding "su root" and "man shutdown". I think its interesting that people are familiar with other OS's understand that Control-Alt-Delete means the system is dead, whereas with FreeBSD, that can be a normal shutdown. Hey! We beat Microsoft; Windows shutdown is at the minimum two keystrokes: ALT-F4 and Enter. FreeBSD: One.

I was able to get my NIC card configured. It turns out that the device driver defaults to a BNC port configuration on system boot. The Boot log file /var/run/dmesg.boot contains the following boot message, "ep0: aui/utp/bnc[*BNC*] address ##:##:##:####:##". However, I have a UTP port. I read the documentation on configuring for a UTP port (ie. man ep), but it was not clear to me. The correct statement to configure is "ifconfig ep0 inet IP_address mask mask_address link2". In /etc/rc.conf it would look like 'ifconfig_ep0="inet IP_address netmask mask_address link2"'. Unfortunately, I was placing a "media" clause in front of the "link2" parameter and that was not working. Thanks a lot for your collaborative efforts...

Is it possible to have a shell script recurse a directory tree? Still the same situation as my last email I have a directory tree with .shtml files. I want to recurse the directory tree renaming each .shtml to a .html file. Paul sent me the following script that allows me to mv all .shtml in a single directory: #!/bin/sh for i in *.shtml do j=`basename $i .shtml` mv $i $j.html done This script works and changes all of the .shtml in the current directory. Is their a way I can get the script to recurse my directory tree? Many Thanks James A.

I have done following things so far 1.Recompiling the Kernel with statement as pseudo-device bpfilter 4 2.All me devices(and network cards are working extremely fine) and I have DEC PCI Ethernet DECCHip adapter with corresponding entry in kernel of de0 and is working fine. 3.I have installed tcpdump and trafshow on my machine. Now when i run tcpdump or trafshow the following happens 1.All packets directed to and from my host are shown 2.All packets for broadcast and multicast are shown e.g arp request and arp replies 3.When I invoke tcpdump for viewing packets on some host celtics e.g >tcpdump -n host celtics The reply is as >>>> Dec 11 21:56:11 Myhost /kernel: de0: promiscuous mode enabled tcpdump:listening on de0 /** Only arp packets for celtics are visible **/ ^C /* Aborting operation */ 1051 packets received by filter 0 packets dropped by kernel 4.Other packets from HostA to HostB where both HostA and HostB and proper hosts are NOT visible at all despite of choosing (probably as many as possible) expressions given to tcpdump and trafshow as command line arguments. Is there some change to be made in code for getting the packets destined for other hosts to be picked up by my network card.In fact the no of packets that appear in the statement that are received by filter do seem to indicate that the kernel is getting the packets but some how it the pplication is not printing them.Please help me with it.I had given a try to FAQ,HelpBook and mail list archive but could not find my answer any where Hoping for quick and prompt reply Thanks and Regards singhh@delpo1.in.unisys.com Hardeep Singh To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 11 12:02:42 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA20132 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 12:02:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cat.cz.62IgP7hQ (server.cat.cz [194.213.226.198]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA20127 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 12:02:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from posmura@cat.cz) Received: from 195.250.135.205 by server.cat.cz with SMTP (CSM Mail Server 1998.5) id 5615; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 21:02:55 +0200 Message-ID: <002501be2541$1d8044c0$0100a8c0@albert> From: "Vlastimil Posmura" To: Subject: Support for Czech Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 21:01:54 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-2" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have one question: does support for Czech exist for FreeBSD? === Vlastimil POSMURA e-mail: posmura@cat.cz e-mail: posmurav@armycz www: http://www.tabor.vol.cz/posmura === To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 11 12:11:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA21392 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 12:11:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from uumin.min.net (uumin.min.net [208.222.210.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA21379 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 12:11:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from aling@alum.mit.edu) Received: from min.net (root@min.net [208.222.210.19]) by uumin.min.net (8.8.7/8.7.3) with ESMTP id OAA15631 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 14:55:12 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost (outpost.cc.nih.gov [137.187.245.138]) by min.net (8.8.7/8.7.3) with SMTP id OAA22257 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 14:55:11 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <199812111955.OAA22257@min.net> From: "A.

The Aladdin Ghostscript hardware compatibility page at http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/printer.html seems to imply support using the bjc800 driver, assuming the 7004 & 7000 have the same or similar interface to software.

Through this time, I've been trying to find a good book decidated to the operating system, but haven't had much luck. A few days ago, I came across the "FreeBSD Handbook" in a Walnut Creek catalog. Reading the abstract, it looks like something that adresses my main concerns. So I was wondering, how similar are the operating systems, and how much of the book would be relevant to NetBSD?

Or their nat box is leaking arp. Or they're using the single nic style for nat'ing which *will* cause this. Switch your internal to 192.168.1.0 and see if it changes.

NetBSD and FreeBSD are very similar modulo architecture support. Most of the book will be relevant. Also see the 4.4BSD series from ORA.

The directories that hold the binaries and libraries should get built and filled in by "make install". If you're talking about the Amanda config directories, you'll need to build those, and you told Amanda where they would be with --with-configdir (which defaults to $sysconfdir/amanda where $sysconfdir comes from --sysconfdir which defaults to $prefix/etc where $prefix comes from --prefix which defaults to /usr/local -- whew!). >Other question can you extract a single file from a dumped backup? No, you have to throw the whole machine away and start over. Just kidding :-). You can bring back anything from a single file to a whole machine. Remember that Amanda is just storing images that are created with standard tools, e.g. GNU tar or the vendor dump program. So whatever those tools provide for restoring can be used with Amanda. If you're using amrecover, you'll work your way down to the file/directory with "cd" and "ls" and then "add" what you want to bring back. If you're using amrestore then you'll be piping the output to the appropriate restore program, and they will provide mechanisms for reloading whatever you want. >Pablo Quintana John R.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with break- ing into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? ========================================= Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to answer a question =========================== Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending "> " to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ">" and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as "Re: ". If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)". That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text.

When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html.

If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 175 ________ In the section Mounting file systems, replace the text down to and including the example with: Microsoft platforms identify partitions by letters which are assigned at boot time. There is no obvious relation between the partitions, and you have little control over the way the system assigns them. By contrast, all UNIX partitions have a specific relation to the root file system, which is called simply /. This flexibility has one problem: you have the choice of where in the overall file system structure you put your individual file systems. You specify the location with the mount command. For example, you would typically mount a CD- ROM in the directory /cdrom, but if you have three CD-ROM drives attached to your SCSI controller, you might prefer to mount them in the directories /cd0, /cd1, and /cd2. [1] In order to mount a file system, you need to specify the device to be mounted, where it is to be mounted, and the type of file system (unless it is ufs). The mount point, (the directory where it is to be mounted) must already exist. To mount your second CD-ROM on /cd1, you would enter: # mkdir /cd1 only if it doesn't exist # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd1a /cd1 Thanks to Christiane Yeardly for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph ____________________ [1] This numbering is in keeping with the UNIX tradition of numbering starting from 0. There's nothing to stop you choosing some other name, of course. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: Page 13 Starting the spooler xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: To do this, you could type in, on presto, $ rsh freebie xterm -ls -display presto:0 & The flag -ls tells xterm that this is a login shell, which causes it to read in the startup files. It might work without this flag, but there's a good chance that some environment variables, such as PATH, may not be set. In practice, the xterms menus in the window manager will perform this function for you when you select the appropriate menu item. Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia for drawing this to my attention. In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. Page 15 Starting the spooler o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 17 Starting the spooler www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Page 19 Starting the spooler Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

Look on http://www.xfree86.org/ for the answer tothis question. Advanced video card function for bitmapped diplays is the realm of X windows. FreeBSD supports VGA compatible adapters for the purpose of text based interface.

The reason being is the wildcards are expanded and command line parsed by the shell before the command is loaded in memory. VMS and MS-DOS expected the command line to be parsed and wildcards expanded in the application/command. The following shell script might help demonstrate.

The question is how do I remove /usr/src/ src so a future "cvs -q update -P -d" in /usr/src doesn't complain about it missing? So far the best I've come up with is to grep for it in /usr/src/CVS/* then brute force delete the line(s) found. "cvs remove src" complains. And I'm lost in the manpage for CVS. The above checkout and update are the only two CVS commands I know. Something I'd like to be able to do is checkout only /usr/src/{lkm,sys} so in the future a single update in the /usr/src directory only does those two.

If you have a partition that is less that 512 MB then that partition will not use FAT32, even if you specify large disk support in fdisk.exe. FreeBSD can install from a FAT32 formatted disk.

I've found open to be a little slow, and Net is missing a few of the refinements that Free has. I made a decision, if it's Intel HW, then it's FreeBSD - nothing else. Please don't take that to mean that Net/Open are flawed in some way, because they arent. I believe that because Free happens to have concentrated on the PC that they have developed a superior product, on the PC. That's it, nothing more. Now, I'm waiting for a Mac and a SPARC to run Net and Open on. :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 11 23:00:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA25497 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 23:00:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peanut.readington.com (peanut.readington.com [207.207.198.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA25491 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 23:00:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from chrismar@peanut.readington.com) Received: from localhost (chrismar@localhost) by peanut.readington.com (8.9.1/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA12906 for ; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 01:58:10 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from chrismar@peanut.readington.com) Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1998 01:58:10 -0500 (EST) From: Chris Martino To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: compiling woes Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi folks, Yesterday I was mucking around and I just happened to remove ~/bin (doh!), which contained serveral usefull applications. In an effort to get them back I've untarred the sources and compiled most of them back. I seem to be having the same problem re-compiling wmppp and wmmon, allthough they both compiled fine the first time around. They are both failing w/ the same error listed below: [chrismar@crazy ~/packages/wmmon.app/wmmon ] % make cc -o wmmon -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXpm -lXext -lX11 /usr/lib/crt0.o: Undefined symbol `_main' referenced from text segment *** Error code 1 Stop. Any help is greatly appreciated. Or, if you by chance happen to have these built already and wouldn't mind sending me the binaries, I would appreciate that as well.. :-) TIA, Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 11 23:12:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA27007 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 23:12:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from iway1.iw.net (iway1.iw.net [204.157.148.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA27001 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 23:12:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dragonknight@dtgnet.com) Received: from death (rap-dialup-34.dtgnet.com [216.16.6.34] (may be forged)) by iway1.iw.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA00082; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 01:11:54 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <003f01be259e$5e2e36a0$81e9fea9@death> From: "Dragon Knight" To: "Eric Hodel" , "Marc Andre Paquin" Cc: Subject: Re: fat32 and fat16 Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1998 00:08:52 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Perhaps I'm just numb of the mind.. well, ok, I am numb of the mind but anyway, I have a 6.4 Gig. IDE drive in this box, currently it has a 2.1 Gig. FAT16 partition with Win98 and a ~4.1 Gig. chunk split off for FreeBSD. I did have a 2.1 Gig. FAT16 partition, and a ~2.5 Gig. FAT32 Partition but found that FreeBSD (2.2.6) refused to install in the remaining space on the disk. Thus I was forced to remove the FAT32 partition before continuing. I'm thinking this is because all partitions after the first MS-DOS (C:) which is the Primary DOS partition are created in the Extended DOS partition. These additions partitions (the ones in the Extended DOS partition) are so-called Logical DOS drives. So, to have more than 1 DOS drive FAT32 or FAT16 you must be sure to have the last (X) part of the drive untouched. Meaning, don't have DOS's fdisk use 100% of the space while making the DOS extended partition. If you haven't done a lot of partitioning in your life, which I haven't, you may think that they cannot at first glance but a FAT32 and a FAT16, or 2x FAT32's, whatever, should be able to run alongside a FreeBSD partition without any problems. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Samuel Greear >It is not true that FAT32 and FAT16 cannot coexist.

Aye, typo, I meant to type $HOME/.kshrc I was also incorrectly assuming that ksh or any other shell for that matter automatically reads their associated .shellrc... But it has to be set explicitely with ENV...

Please ask these kind of questions in questions@freebsd.org next time =) I thought that bin and man were two of the most important ones as well as the kernel and other / stuff. Also /usr/bin and /usr/sbin were pretty needed. Ahh, better check this URL: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ25.html#25 Ye could put the files on the Mac and setup an ftp server and then ftp them from the Mac if ye have some UTP crosscable, or BNC and can get TCP/IP working on both systems.

(Run fdisk.exe, then hit 4.) In this case you will have to reduce the size of the extended partition (and maybe the primary if it runs past the 1024 cylinder boundary) through reformatting or by using a partition shrinker such as tools/fips.exe. (You may need to create one logical drive that uses the entire extended partition, but I'm not sure...) P.S.

Would you please help me. I want to make rule-based gateway selection. My internal network is connected to a FreeBSD-current box and it has three ethernet cards. First ethernet card is for internal network, second ethernet card is attached to provider A's router and the third one is attached to provider B's router. All of my machines' default gateway is FreeBSD box and its default gateway is provider A's router. But I want to use provider B's router as default gateway for some of the machines. I used ipfw's fwd action but couldn't success. |------| x.x.x.a | |Router|---------| x.x.x.b | internet --| A | | fxp2 |-------| | |______| |---------|FreeBSD| z.z.z.254|Internal | 3.0 |----------|Network |---------|Current| fxp0 | | y.y.y.d |_______| |z.z.z.1 |------| y.y.y.c | fxp1 |z.z.z.250 |Router|---------| | internet --| B | |______| For example z.z.z.1 - z.z.z.100 will use x.x.x.a and z.z.z.101 - z.z.z.250 will use y.y.y.c to access internet. FreeBSD box's default gateway is x.x.x.a and (so) all of the machines in the internal network use x.x.x.a to access the internet. How can I use ipfw fwd to route some of the machines to y.y.y.c or is there any other way to do this? I use a test rule like this: #!/bin/sh ipfw add 100 fwd y.y.y.c all from z.z.z.0:255.255.255.0 to any in via fxp0 ipfw add 200 pass all from any to any These rules can't help me and nobody can reach internet if I don't delete rule 100. Thank you very much.

I imagine a document root structure something like this: /usr/local/www/user1 /usr/local/www/user2 and so on. I would like to provide user1 with ftp access to their directory, user2 to theirs (in a chroot environment) - how should the premissions and ownerships be set up for the various directories? Should /usr/local/www/user1 be writable by user1 or should there be a user1/pub type directory which becomes the user1 document root for Apache? (or is there a much better way of doing this?!).

I see the same behavior with -stable. I tried reboot and shutdown -h now, and in both instances, rc.shutdown was ignored. Steve Friedrich Viva la FreeBSD!!

Nice to see you got that years straight, Zork. :) The place to look for video card info is not really the FreeBSD site, but rather the XFree86 site, http://www.xfree86.org/FAQ/ is a good place to start.

However, when I try to get FreeBSD to recognize the board it can't find it. I have tried everything including setting the parameters to those that MSW sets up in PnP mode without success. The pertinent facts are these: In the config file: # Audio drivers: `snd', `sb', `pas', `gus', `pca' # # sb: SoundBlaster PCM - SoundBlaster, SB Pro, SB16, ProAudioSpectrum # sbxvi: SoundBlaster 16 # sbmidi: SoundBlaster 16 MIDI interface # options SBC_IRQ=5 #PAS-16. Must match irq on sb0 line. # PAS16: The order of the pas0/sb0/opl0 is important since the # sb emulation is enabled in the pas-16 attach. # # The i386/isa/sound/sound.doc has more information. # Beware! The addresses specified below are also hard-coded in # i386/isa/sound/sound_config.h. If you change the values here, you # must also change the values in the include file. # # Controls all sound devices controller snd0 options SBC_BASE=0x220 options SBC_IRQ=5 options SBC_DMA=3 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 conflicts drq 3 vector sbintr # irq 5 conflicts with my mouse. I have tried 10 also which MSWindows uses. device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 7 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 options "SB16_DMA=7" At Bootup: sb0 not found at 0x220 sbxvi0 not found sbmidi0 not found at 0x330 I would also like to point out the following lines from LINT: # Beware! The addresses specified below are also hard-coded in # i386/isa/sound/sound_config.h. If you change the values here, you # must also change the values in the include file. AND . . . In the file sound_config.h: If your card has nonstandard I/O address or IRQ number, change defines for the following settings in your kernel Makefile */ These seem to be out of sync. The header file uses #ifndef to determine the need for a default definition. I would appreciate any help you can give me on this subject. Is the 64 GOLD NOT supported? Or am I just missing something? If it is not supported, is there anything in the works?

And then use the appropriate > ifconfig media option in /etc/rc.conf. See man fxp for that. Actually I don't have any disks for any of these cards. The cards came from running machines that had been upgraded, and thus no disks were available. For the fxp0 device, I plugged it in to see what would happen, and that was how it was probed. I just read man fxp, and it says it's based on Intel i82557 ethernet chip. The number on the chip in the card is S82557. Is this the same? There is an i on the chip, but not part of that number. The card appears to be something other than Intel. I'm going attempt to locate some more info on this card. For the ed0 device, it has numbers on the back 8013EWC, which seemed to be just fine for ed0. It is jumper configurable. I made an assumption that all SMC 8013 cards will work with the ed0 device, but perhaps that was an error on my part? -- E=m*(c*c) Ken Keeler "Look, it's all a bunch of ones and zeros."

In an effort to get them back I've untarred the sources and compiled most of them back. I seem to be having the same problem re-compiling wmppp and wmmon, allthough they both compiled fine the first time around.

It does a few odds and ends and then calls your main() function. In this case, the linker (not crt0.o) couldn't find the main function. If the line you show above is complete, that's not surprising: cc -o wmmon -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXpm -lXext -lX11 This says ``create an executable file wmmon, and search the libraries Xpm, Xext and X11''. It doesn't specify any input files. It's not really clear what you're doing here. If this is a port (sysutils/wmmon?), you need probably to go back to the beginning and start again.

After you started it, did 'ps ax' show that it was running? And if not, was there anything in the httpd error log to tell you why it didn't start? Try starting it with the script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh. If it doesn't start, check the httpd error log. You can also run '/usr/local/sbin/apachectl configtest' to see if there are any errors in your configuration files, which is the most likely cause of its not starting.

The reason I'd like this feature is so I can get Netscape's fonts to look as good as Win9x's. Then I'd never need to use Win9x again :) Thanks, Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Dec 12 21:32:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA14192 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 21:32:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from quackerjack.cc.vt.edu (quackerjack.cc.vt.edu [198.82.160.250]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA14185 for ; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 21:32:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jobaldwi@vt.edu) Received: from sable.cc.vt.edu (sable.cc.vt.edu [128.173.16.30]) by quackerjack.cc.vt.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA15832 for ; Sun, 13 Dec 1998 00:32:20 -0500 (EST) Received: from john.baldwinfamily.org (jobaldwi.campus.vt.edu [198.82.67.63]) by sable.cc.vt.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA02238 for ; Sun, 13 Dec 1998 00:32:19 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.3 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 Date: Sun, 13 Dec 1998 00:32:19 -0500 (EST) Reply-To: jobaldwi@vt.edu Organization: Virginia Tech From: John Baldwin To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Preserving permissions Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi all, How can I force all files and directories under a directory to be owned by the owner and group of the directory? That is, suppose /a is owned by joe:users, then if a file /a/temp is created, it will be owned by joe:users, even if I'm not joe when I create the file. I'd also like to be able to have the permissions of files ANDed against the parent directory's permissions. I.e. if /a has rwxrwx--- then, /a/temp should be rw-r----- after creating it (if I have a umask of 022) instead of rw-r--r--. I'd also like to do this selectively, i.e. only for certain directories, not as a system-wide thing on all directories. Can I do this without resorting to a cron job that resets all the permissions and ownerships every so often?

But if it's your intention, it'll do that, too. You don't need PartitionMagic, but FreeBSD will respect partitions made by PartitionMagic.

Here are the details; any help much appreciated: -I've tried several cards. All of them work fine (i.e. are recognized and compatible from the boot diskette) in 2.2.6 but do not work in 2.2.7 or 2.2.8. One is a 3com, one is an SMC 8xxx, one is a generic NE2000 compatible Plug and play. -As I said, I've played with various ways of configuring the card via jumpers and software, and with FreeBSD during the Userconfig. Even when the configurations of OS and ethernet card are exactly the same, it still doesn't work -Here's how it doesn't work: On boot after userconfig, the device detection sees the card just fine with the proper configuration. "Ethernet device detected at ed0" and so on. But, when I go in to the FTP installation setup and hit "go" for resolving the host, here's what happens: Writing /etc/resolv.conf Writing /etc/hosts Adding default route ... Network intialized successfully ... Starting DNS Looking up hostname, ftp.freebsd.org, using inet_addr(). Looking up hostname, ftp.freebsd.org, using gethostbyname(). ed0: device timeout ed0: device timeout ed0: device timeout ed0: device timeout Shutdown for ed0 ... and so on. Happens every time without fail. I don't understand why these cards that have worked just fine in the past all of the sudden fail under the newer versions of the OS. New devices added that are creating a conflict? Bad luck? I've talked to others who have had this problem, who have spent hours swapping ethernet cards and configurations to no avail. What are we missing?
