References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I think freebsd just increments the input/output error counter on the device driver for ethernet errors like late collisions, bad checksums, and frame alignment. The netstat -i command lists the input/output errors. The driver for the ethernet card would have access to what ever the ethernet chip tracks. You could write a program to get the individual error counts. If you see your ierror or oerror counters increasing between a couple of invocations of netstat -i, you have a physical layer problem. Check the transeiver, cabling, nic card. johnl Veaceslav Revutchi wrote: > > Hello, > > How can one detect on a FreeBSD machine if there is late collisions > happening on the LAN? > I had a problem recently with a faulty card which was causing late > collisions and I was happy to have a cisco router on the same segment > which reported late collisions so at least I knew I have to look for > a troubled card. > > thank you. > Veaceslav > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 1: 4: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns1.networkiowa.com (ns1.networkiowa.com [209.234.64.192]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB1BD37B844 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:04:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from johnl@raccoon.com) Received: from raccoon.com (dsl.72.145.networkiowa.com [209.234.72.145]) by ns1.networkiowa.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id EAA14887; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 04:07:08 -0500 Message-ID: <38E70D09.C1424659@raccoon.com> Date: Sun, 02 Apr 2000 04:04:09 -0500 From: John Lengeling X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: 328link Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: About Adaptec 29160 SCSI Controller References: <38E42D70.B9842BE5@pacific.net.hk> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It works under FreeBSD 4.0.

I have hooked up a lot of different printers to FreeBSD boxes and HP JetDirect cards don't work as well since they only allow 1-2 simultanious network conections to the printer. If you haven't purchased them yet get an Axis print server box instead. I highly recommend them. www.axis.com. JetDirect cards work, just not was well as Axis cards. It is also important that you upgrade your jetdirect firmware to the latest rev if this is an older card. There are some bugs specific to their LPD implimentation. You can also turn off banner pages on the later firmware code. johnl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 1:26:29 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fw.wintelcom.net (ns1.wintelcom.net [209.1.153.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9AFC037BCC8 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:26:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bright@fw.wintelcom.net) Received: (from bright@localhost) by fw.wintelcom.net (8.10.0/8.10.0) id e329pai25775; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:51:36 -0800 (PST) Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:51:36 -0800 From: Alfred Perlstein To: Frederik Meerwaldt Cc: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Subject: Re: AusAwards School Message-ID: <20000402015136.B21029@fw.wintelcom.net> References: <200004011543829.SM00344@localhost> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i In-Reply-To: ; from Meerwaldt@t-online.de on Sun, Apr 02, 2000 at 09:50:57AM +0200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG * Frederik Meerwaldt [000402 01:37] wrote: > Dear FreeBSD Team, > > I have subscribed to this list to receive FreeBSD-Questions and Answers, > and not such a bullshit (I'm sorry to say that, but it's the truth). > Why do you allow people, who aren't subscribed to the list to send mails > into the list?

The question remains whether there is some way to mark the block as bad and then discover what file was using it.

I've managed to get smbclient working so I have moved the stuff I want to save to one of the other machines on the network. However, I would still like to know the answer to this: Can I format one partition only - in this case the root partition - during installation or does installation completely eradicate everything that was on the disk before. I know that, during a Linux installation, one is asked which partitions should be formatted.

Dear David Banning, I installed the Lyx ports this week (AFAIR, three days ago.) It works fine on my 3.4-STABLE system running XFree86-3.3.6 and the TeX port (1.0.6, needs updating :-). I had a look (view dvi) at the User's Guide etc. NO difficulties so far. I even printed a few documents. However, my home box has 384 MB RAM if that matters. Also, I had installed the textproc/docproj and raised the default TeX settings as described in /usr/ports/jadetex/pkg/MESSAGE: --------------------------------------------------------------------- JadeTeX uses quite a lot of TeX's resources. You may find it necessary to increase the size of some of TeX's resource pools by editing the file /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf with any text editor. For example, to typeset the FreeBSD Handbook with JadeTeX, change the following settings to the listed values: hash_extra =3D 60000 pool_size =3D 1000000 max_strings =3D 70000 save_size =3D 10000 If you change /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, delete the word "original" on line 1 of the file. This will prevent future installations of TeX from overwriting changes you've made. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I seem to understand the following: i) LyX uses LaTeX as a print backend; ii) LaTeX (a TeX macro package) uses (wait for it) TeX; iii) TeX is a typesetting engine (or program) with macro capability. Configuring TeX as shown above should (probably) solve the problem.

Next, I "made index" in /usr/ports. The following occurred: 1) gphoto-0.4.0: /usr/ports/graphics/etpbm non-existent --dependency list incomplete ; 2) make: don't know how to make describe. Stop. Done. As to 1), AFAICS "netpbm" should be substituted for "etpbm" in /usr/ports/graphics/gphoto/Makefile As to 2), well, I have the impression the "describe" target has been forgotten :-) I'll issue a make -k index in the meanwhile.

In my case, English+Russian+Ukrainean. I'm not sure what "triple-language support" translates to in technical terms. I assume what you need is (1) a font that has the characters required for all three languages and (2) ditto a keymap. The locale settings LC_*, LANG can of course only ever refer to a single language, unless you define your own multi-language locale, whatever that might be. Requirement (1) can be a showstopper since there simply are no standardized character sets to accomodate many language combinations, e.g. there is none that covers both German and Russian. In your case, though, I'm optimistic. You can get by with ASCII only in English, and there should be some ASCII+Cyrillic character set that covers both Great Russian and Ukrainian. KOI8-R is limited to the Russian characters. How about KOI8-U? That's modified to add the additional Ukrainian characters. Can't it be used to write Russian, too? And ISO 8859-5 covers all of Russian, Belorussian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, Serbian, Macedonian, etc, but I understand it's an unpopular choice of character set in most of those countries. I notice that we don't seem to have any KOI8-U or ISO 8859-5 console fonts. Hmm. KOI8-U you could probably modify yourself from KOI8-R with a font editor such as xmbdfed. Or you could pick up appropriate Linux console fonts. There's some simple format conversion necessary, I think, but the font data itself is compatible (VGA-style). There's a Ukrainian KOI8-U keymap which you might want to take as a starting point, even if you can't take it as it is. > P.S. OT: would some kind soul send me codes (or point to them) for > Ukrainean letters in other (DOS, M$-Win) encodings? That sounds like a case for Roman Czyborra's character set soup .

If not, check your LINT for all the options. Be sure to cvsup first if you want the most recent options. Also, consider OpenSSH as a replacement for your SSH.

Fredrik, have you got linux compatibility (no, not emulation) setup? You'll need the linux_base port and have a line in your rc.conf like linux_enable="YES". Also, try a cvsup to get your ports current. It's not marked as broken anymore. I've noticed several changes to the port in the last few days. I think they're still tweaking it to get it to work right. I also get an error on startup about machine doesn't have a valid hostname, followed by a "gethostbyname() failed".

The purpose of pkg_version is to compare the version numbers of installed ports with what's in the INDEX file. If there are multiple versions of a port installed *or* if there exist multiple versions in the INDEX file, pkg_version can't make a meaningful comparison of the version numbers because it doesn't know which quantities to compare. The "multiple versions" output is pkg_version's (my) way of saying there isn't any automated way of figuring out which comparison to make and that you have to look at the output yourself and see. > For instance, bash has multiple versions, but I only installed 2.03. > However, an earlier version shows up in the ports tree, so is this why > pkg_version shows multiple version existing?

It's only doing this on my new computer. I have the same ps2 keyboard my old use to use. I also checked my bios only to find nothing. (I'm using a MSI K7Pro).

Personally I would not recommend FreeBSD as your first step into UNIX. Personally I would recommend Linux, my choise is SuSE Linux (http://www.suse.com). Spend the $29~$49 for the full distribution because the manual is going to be very helpful to you. I recommend Linux over FreeBSD simply because there are a lot more people using it which results in a lot more documentation and web sites related to it for newbies.

Exploitation would take the form of somebody having a web site with overlong URLs (and possibly some other structures lynx is vulnerable to, I don't know the details of the security audit) that will overflow lynx' internal buffers, clobber the stack, and cause this remote data to be executed as code. Effectively, you would attempt to load a page and unwittingly execute some code provided from the malicious server locally on your system under your user ID and permissions. The possibilities for abuse are immense.

When you access a remote untrusted web server. Please note that the security status of other browsers such as w3m is more along the lines of "unknown" rather than "safe".

The recognition that lynx is unsafe is somewhat new, and the problem will probably be fixed eventually. Also, there is no security risk involved in using it to read the locally installed documentation. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 10:36:11 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from peedub.muc.de (peedub.muc.de [193.149.49.109]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ADE7737BD68 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 10:36:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from garyj@peedub.muc.de) Received: from peedub.muc.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by peedub.muc.de (8.9.3/8.6.9) with ESMTP id TAA01159; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:33:22 +0200 (CEST) Message-Id: <200004021733.TAA01159@peedub.muc.de> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.1.0 09/18/1999 To: The Hermit Hacker Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Serial->serial connection (sio0 -> sio1) Reply-To: Gary Jennejohn In-reply-to: Your message of "Sat, 01 Apr 2000 19:05:57 EDT."

I agree 100%, but... I ended up trying Linux about 6 times before I was finally sold on it. If I would have started with FreeBSD, I don't think I would have come back to UNIX. It was because of my understanding of Linux that I like FreeBSD so much. My attitude is this: use Linux to start with because you can get up and running quickly and allow you to learn the basics of UNIX. Once you know your way around, then dive head first into FreeBSD. The thing I like about SuSE is that they have one console tool for all admin stuff and the 400+ page book makes lots of reference back to the real files that do the configuration. I do NOT recommend RedHat, there is too much GUI!

I thought this would automagically add my new accounts to wheel in /etc/groups. In /etc/passwd I found that adduser had created: test:*:1009:0:test:/home/test:/bin/csh This was what xdm|startx choked on. When I created a `test' entry in /etc/groups and modified the passwd entry to: test:*:1009:1009:test:/home/test:/bin/csh things began to work.

I've tried a few distributions of Linux, and none of them seem as nice as FreeBSD. This is probably because I started with FreeBSD with no other Unix knowledge; the reason I don't like Linux is because I'm so used to FreeBSD I try things the FreeBSD way rather than learning the Linux way properly.

I used Linux for 3+ years before I came to know *BSD and let me tell you, I like it better than anything I've used before. Stability, development, speed, and administration -- all better under *BSD (FreeBSD is what I use the most). Personally I like the idea of the *operating system* being written by a *central* group of people. Most people don't realize that Linux is just a kernel, it's not really an operating system. You have 10,000 people writing code to go into the Linux "operating system" -- some people see that as a plus but being a developer myself, I can't see how any organization is maintained with thousdands of people contributing code. It makes for messy, messy end product (IE Linux).. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 12:33:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-1.sjc.telocity.net (mail-1.sjc.telocity.net [216.227.56.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 97AB037B884 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 12:33:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from otter@otter.cc) Received: from otter.cc (dsl-216-227-91-85.telocity.com [216.227.91.85]) by mail-1.sjc.telocity.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA29737; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 12:31:23 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <38E7A091.D9E5A647@otter.cc> Date: Sun, 02 Apr 2000 15:33:37 -0400 From: Otter X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Alex Kwan Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ping - sento : No route to host References: <001d01bf9cd6$a8314980$151e40ca@alexkwan> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Alex Kwan wrote: > > Hi! > > When I exec ifconfig -a to verify the Ethernet Interface Configuation, it > was: > ep0 : flags=8802mtu 1500 > ether 00:10:4b:5f:1d:07 > my /etc/defaults/rc.conf was: > network_interface="auto" > ifconfig_ep0="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" > When I exec ping 192.168.1.1 it was a error message: > ping: sento: No route to host > How do I make the ep0 up?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I suppose I should really be asking the XFree86 folks. Still. I am considering purchasing a ViewSonic VP-181 LCD monitor to replace my old chunk of garbage. Depending on where you look on ViewSonic's site, the resolution is either 1280x1024 or 1600x1200. Either is fine with me. :-) One nice feature is that it has dual inputs. So I can start off with my ATI VGA card controlling it, and later perhaps shift to a digital VGA card. Unfortunately, I am not very familiar with Digital VGA cards (presumably with a different interface specially made for controlling LCD monitors). Has anyone been there and done that? Can any such person offer any advice? Thanks in advance.

This has a digital interface, and is a big win. Here's why: In a typical video card, you've got a RAMDAC being fed 24 bit RGB samples from the frame buffer (8 bits each red, green and blue). The RAMDAC converts these sample to analog voltages for each pixel; it needs to do this really damn fast to keep up with the frame rate of the monitor. So, now you've got these 3 analog voltages zinging their way down the wire into your monitor. On a "real" CRT, each of these voltages drives and amplifier which modulates the electron beam current which excites the phosphers on the screen of your display, which then produces the image of pornography on your screen :-) This is done for each of red, green and blue, otherwise the skin tones are not accurately reproduced. On an LCD monitor, there is no electron death beam exciting the phosphers; instead there is an analog-to-digital converter sampling each of the R,G and B voltages. This is then used to drive the LCD shutter on each pixel. There's two problems here: first, you're trying to recover the value of the pixel through a D/A and then A/D conversion process which is going to lose precision. Further, you're only estimating where the pixel is on the screen; e.g., the dot pitch of the actual display and how that's mapped to the varying voltage of the analog signal. The digital flat panel displays fix both of these problems. First, there is no tedious conversion of the pixel value to and from an analog voltage; you simply convey that to the display as bits, eliminating the need for the high-speed RAMDAC on the video display card and the high-speed ADC in the LCD display. Further, you can precisely address each pixel on the display since you're explicitly clocking out the RGB values for each pixel. This gives you an extraordinarily sharp display, (even compared to "analog" LCD panels) resulting in unparalleled high quality display of Internet pornography :-) That's background on why you want to do it. The how is harder to explain. The SGI 1600SW is usually sold paired with a Number 9 Revolution IV graphics board which has the digital display interface (as well as analog VGA output). When this display was first produced, there were no standards for the nature of the digital display interface, so your choices of display adapters was limited. Since then, a display interface was "standardized", but it seems that only recently have these things hit the market. So you need to be careful to investigate these interoperability issues before purchasing. If I had to guess, the Viewsonic monitor probably sports the newer standard interface; it would be interesting to see if anyone is shipping video cards which support it yet. So most of the experience so far has been with the proprietary digital interface on the SGI display. I don't know what the issues might be with the ViewSonic specifically. From the web page, the VP-181 looks very, very nice. If you can get a video card with the digital interface, life only gets that much better.. louie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 13:44:19 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from picusnet.com (mail.picusnet.com [207.7.90.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 61CA937B652 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 13:44:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wdf@picusnet.com) Received: from picusnet.com [209.96.235.196] by picusnet.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-5.05) id A0ED22BC0104; Sun, 02 Apr 2000 16:43:25 -0400 Received: (from wdf@localhost) by picusnet.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id PAA03243 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 15:45:49 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from wdf) Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2000 15:45:27 -0400 From: William Freeman To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re:Re:What is FreeBSD Message-ID: <20000402154527.A3227@gwernache.picusnet.com> Reply-To: William Freeman Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Communism, especialy in the soclialist version, goes against human nature by makeing peole help each other and remove their ability to have private propperty. i can't think of somthing to compare the GPL to except "sure, you can modify this, but you have to give EVERYONE your changes, too! !!". the BSD lisence lets anyone make modifications and keep them secret if they wish, however i'm probably too young to have heard of any time when this actualy presented a problem. in fact, i can't even think of an example of this happening with anything other than Apache. i don't work for a company, infact i'm not even out of high school yet, so i'd give code back because i have nothing to gain from keeping it a secret.

On the surface it appears to be a good idea, but there is a subtle flaw in communism. Unless I am mistaken, the concept behind communism is that all things are equal. Everyone owns everything. This sounds GREAT, it is most definitely a feel-good way to look at the world. It was not the desire for all to be equal that provoked man to leave the caves and start farming. Humans are lazy creatures, man started farming because it was easier then living in caves and hunting, it was also more comfortable. One must also look at the fact that man is a pack animal. In all packs there are those that want to be lead and those that want to lead. Those that want to lead have the desire to lead because they are competitive creatures. In one-way or another every man (and woman) is competitive. The subtle, but fatal, flaw in the idea that everyone owns everything is that competition must be eliminated. Without competition, there is no reason to work. If working will not make your life more enjoyable, why work? The reason the USA has so many people well off is because if you work hard, you will be successful. The downside is that if you don’t work hard, you will be left out in the cold. It is up to the individual who is successful to help those who are trying to become successful; it is NOT the government’s job. In the USA there are a lot more successful people out there helping others the one might think, it simply is not news worth and/or not advertised. An example, a classmate of my stepdaughter is having problems in school. My stepdaughter had been tutoring the classmate after school until other girls started to get jealous. After the whole mess finally calmed down, the classmate still wanted my stepdaughters help. This young lady stayed at school for an hour and half until her mother (divorced) could pick her up at school. But my wife and I knew the right thing to do was to reach out to this young lady and have her come to our house after school so my wife (who is a full time mom) could help out both young ladies. I am not looking for praise; my point is that I believe there is a lot of this type of thing going on in the USA, those with that are helping those without. In a capitalistic society like the USA, those that want to work hard and prosper can do exactly that. And those that want to be lazy can have hard lives can do that. Anyone and everyone is free to do as they please. With communism everyone is brought down to a common level. It is easier to take away from those that have then it is to give to those without. In my opinion the idea is that the government prevents others from getting in your way and prevents you from stopping others from succeeding. One hundred years ago that was not the way things where in the USA, but they are much closer to that today!

It is about as trouble free as it can be. I need to access my schools data files (research and library databases) and can only do it with a PPP link through their ISP. I can get the PPP setup and making a valid connection, again no real trouble. The problem is that when I access the school server (the school only uses dynamic assignment of address) it goes through the NIC interface. Question is how do I get my browser (or lynx) to work through PPP? It only seems to be able to see the NIC even when I have an open and complete PPP link. Any help or pointers to other info will be geatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In a discussion about it this week on the -questions list someone narrowed it down to a problem with clocal not being properly set. You can demonstrate it by booting without a serial console (no -P in /boot.config, no kernel options, etc.) and then try to get a tty on that line.

I am using the following kernel options: maxusers 256 options SOFTUPDATES options SHMMAXPGS=65536 options SHMSEG=32 (the last 2 because I'm using postgres) The whole database takes up approx. 12MB disk space, the system looks like this: Mem: 26M Active, 13M Inact, 25M Wired, 36K Cache, 12M Buf, 438M Free Swap: 490M Total, 490M Free The filesystem used is mounted with -o async (not that it should matter - except perhaps for the logfiles, which only grow by a few 100 bytes per second anyway).

The NAT has 2 ethernet cards, one to a PUBLIC ETHERNET and the other to our LOCAL ETHERNET (192.168.etc...) The natd has been setup with the "-redirect_port" option so that a certain port on the NAT PUBLIC INTERFACE gets redirected to a server on our LOCAL ETHERNET therefore giving our server a PUBLIC ADDRESS/PORT. The problem occurs when a P.C. on the LOCAL ETHERNET tries to access the SERVER on the LOCAL ETHERNET by way of its PUBLIC ADDRESS/PORT. The NAT seems to deny packets. It is absolutely necessary that I can get natd to do this. Accessing the SERVER via it's local address in an unacceptable solution.

Not enough information. Tell us something useful: is it a classic network-layer DoS such as a SYN attack, TCP segment flood, etc? Are real connections being built, are these randomly sourced packets? Are the source IPs randomized (unlikely if real connections are being built)? Is the limiting component here the web server CPU/state management? Router packet-pushing capacity? Link capacity? Is the target the application level? Before we can tell you anything that can help you defend yourself, you need to tell us what the problem is. How do you know you're being DoS'd? Is it adversely affecting performance/etc, or is it something you can sit out waiting for the attacker to get bored? Someone else has already suggested you go to your up-stream provider(s). This is a good idea--if you don't know what you're doing, there's a greater chance that they have experience in the area, as it may also be affecting their network performance et al, and would love to throttle the attack stream if they knew that it wasn't legitimate. If the attack is persistent and having serious effects, why haven't you contacted law enforcement, who have lately been showing relatively serious interest in tracking attacks such as these? Have you been attempting to gather evidence necessary for criminal prosecution, including packet traces, etc?

Anything ending with a .gz is an archive you *could* delete. A wise sysadmin will look through them before sending them to the bit-bucket. "ls -l /var/log/" will show you how much space each file is consuming. If you have a file that isn't being rotated, you might find something quite huge in there. Other places you might look, assuming a properly functioning system, include /var/backups (if you're dropping backups there) and, of course, /var/tmp. You might try "ls -lR /var/" and just look for big file sizes as well. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 2 19:16:38 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from merlin.prod.itd.earthlink.net (merlin.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.120.156]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB25A37BB12 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:16:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk@earthlink.net) Received: from earthlink.net (sdn-ar-005orportP242.dialsprint.net [63.178.69.4]) by merlin.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA24064; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:16:27 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from bduk@localhost) by earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id TAA01825; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:11:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk) Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:11:53 -0700 (PDT) Posted-Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:11:53 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200004030211.TAA01825@earthlink.net> From: Derrick Baumer To: cjm2@earthling.net Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <001201bf9ca7$23cef360$0200000a@weeble.dyndns.org> (cjm2@earthling.net) Subject: Re: RE: Funny mail Reply-To: bduk@earthlink.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG After a long night of experiments of rather dubious scientific value, I have concluded that there is indeed a delay between fetchmail's indication that the mail has been received and sendmail's actual delivery of the message. Duplication of the problem I experienced consists of simply typing "emacs" (no return yet) then switching to another console and downloading email via fetchmail. As soon as fetchmail says it's done, switch back, hit and hit your "RMAIL" hot key (F6 on my system). I guess I was just too impatient? I have seen occasional rejected mail, but not coincident with the problem I was seeing. Thank you, though, for your well thought replies and your time.

I had the same problems with w3m, eventually giving it up and just installing w3 for emacs, since I'm sitting in emacs 90% of the time anyway. I'm running 3.4-stable, with ports downloaded maybe three weeks ago and the errors he described in his original message are very similar to the errors I had. While I was searching for the error, I found that the source file from which tagtable.c was generated appeared to be corrupted, with gibberish characters in the lines that gave errors during the compile. If the sources were corrupted, they're corrupted in the distribution downloaded by the ports system.

I'm sure the system is already caching the entire file - evidence of this is the 438M of free memory, which the system would directly allocate from in order to cache the file.

I checked Postgres' data directory and, surprisingly, it writes temporary files for every query. Their filenames begin with "pg_sorttemp", so the GROUP BY clause seems to be the culprit. Shouldn't it be possible to get rid of those disk accesses somehow? These are very short-lived files, softupdates are enabled. -mjy -- ***==> Marinos J.

YES, we PROBABLY can, but first TELL me why you LIKE to CAPITALIZE every OTHER word? Why do you say that the NAT server seems to deny the packets?

I have one computer in my apartment (really no room for two), and my wife and I spend most of our time waiting for the other to finish what they're doing so we can get our time on the computer. My needs are extremely modest. I write, and that's about it. My high-tech multi-etc system is a glorified text editor, with plain-old emacs sitting on the screen 99% of the time. The terminal must drive a console-mode emacs, having the appropriate keys, and that's about it. Monochrome green screen is fine. It would be nice if it was fairly lightweight/mobile so I could string it out to the couch and do my writing there while she's at the main console. As it is, I spend an inordinate amount of time writing in a notebook and typing it in later when the system is free. Again, there really isn't room to set up another complete computer system - the solution here must be fairly small. Ideas?

The upgrade went well except that I cannot get my NIC to work (it was fine in 3.4). When 4.0 boots I get the error messages initializing ep0 "eeprom failed to come ready". However the system detects ep1 but with the wrong IRQ and address settings. I was reading the errata page hoping to find a fix but there wasn't any. Anyone else report this problem and how can I fix it ?

I am reluctant to give information containing IP addresses as we have found that giving too much info to mailing lists can result in hacker attacks later. I will do my best to give you as much info as possible. NAT interfaces: ed1 connects to our Public Ethernet. ed2 (192.168.5.5) connects to our Local Ethernet (192.168.5.0/24) Firwall rules follow: divert 8668 ip from any to any via ed1 allow ip from any to any via lo0 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 allow ip from any to any deny ip from any to any Natd command line follows: natd -n ed1 -redirect_port tcp 192.168.5.253:80 80 There is no natd config file with extra options. As can be seen, our web server (192.168.5.253) is behind the NAT on the local network. I suspect that the nat is denying packets for the following reasons: a.) P.C.'s on the Internet can access our Web Server via port 80 on the NAT public interface (ed1). b.) P.C's on our local network can access the Internet. c.) P.C's on our local network can not access the Web Server via port 80 on the NAT public interface (ed1). Reason c.) above is the problem. Hope that makes it clearer.

I originally had the default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 which just seemed to delete everything in the ports subdirectories so I did it again with the tag=. which the docs said should just update to the latest files. I tried to make w3m again and got the same error message as before. Did I do the ports update correctly? I'm a FreeBSD newbie so excuse my ignorance regarding this. thanks, Brian, -- Brian K.

I have linux_base6.1 and my rc.conf looks right - and you know what? -It worked! I had to install the linproc stuff from somebody named "vasilyaev" or something like it, but then it worked. I was finally able to compile vmware and install it, and get vmware to start up. The thing is only now vmware says "netscape not found" - but in giving the *correct* path to the file chooser, vmware still doesn't know where it is(it's in /usr/local/bin/). And if I try to browse to it in the Motif file chooser, vmware can't see the 'local' branch in /usr/local/bin! I have checked permissions, and the're right (I even run it as root)...suggestions? I can't wait myself! I don't like NT. It's an alienating OS. It tries to hide stuff from me, I don't like it. /Fredrik To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 0: 8:39 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from escape.com (escape.com [198.6.71.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 81B6F37B548 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 00:08:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hansc@escape.com) Received: from escape.com (16-184.006.popsite.net [216.126.137.184]) by escape.com (8.9.0/8.9.1) with ESMTP id DAA22445 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 03:10:03 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <38E8358F.3E1C414D@escape.com> Date: Sun, 02 Apr 2000 23:09:19 -0700 From: Hans Christensen X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: error-log included: help!

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I got tired to search manpages and archives - in fact I've seldom found anything useful in the archives... I'm using a rude way to move my mail from folder to another: Using xfmail, I have several mbox folders where my mail arrives (with procmail) After I've read the messages, I push the print button, where I've put a shellscript to move my mail to a subdir "old" to corresponding folders: 'stable' to 'old/stable' and so on. However, sometimes, actually quite often, those messages that I move, are not marked as read. I guess it's because xfmail never gets a chance to do this. Now I'd like to know how to mark those messages in a for example 'old/stable' mbox-file as read. I mean with a shell script command, so I could automaticise it. If there is a better way, perhaps a program that would move those mails for me, please point me towards it. (or perhaps another mail reader/editor/program that would provide that function automagically, with as good-looking GUI as xfmail's is) Any pointers to MIME and language settings regarding xfmail are also welcome. I mean URLs and such.

This sounds like a textbook use of a memory filesystem.

Live with it. Well, try turning off java and javascript -- that helps. There's supposed to be a beta release of Netscape 6 (based on Mozilla) on April 5, I dont know what platforms the beta will cover but hopefully there's some improvement in stability. Even the "unstable" versions of many programs (like Gimp) don't crash like Netscape does.

It is difficult to say if your modem will work though, but MAYBE you can download the OS via the net, in which case you at least will need a boot floppy. Your best bet is to get a cdrom just for the install, I'd guess.

I have lost the original custom kernel configuration file. 2. Can not use 'dmesg' (as it is full of arp errors, and nothing else) 3. Can not restart the machine to write down any of the info'! (as it is a crucial network gateway) Also how can I switch off errors such as: arp: 195.105.x.x is on xl0 but got reply from 00:a0:24:4d:2d:95 on xl (Someone has shifted a PC to another subnet, but not changed its' IP address.

It took me a while to find out that Daylight Saving Time ought to be set through Time Zones. Although my local time is set correctly, my gmtime probably isn't. I'm trying to fix that now. So I start up sysinstall, and go to Configure -> Time Zones -> Europe. I get a long list of European countries. I select Belgium. It asks "does the abbreviation 'CEST' look ok?" I click "NO", because the time zone is CET; the "S" stands for Standard, and I think I want 'CEDT'. But I don't get that choice. So I get to choose from a long list of countries for which half come out to "CEST"? With no way to select Daylight Saving Time? Humph. But, enough whining. So, sysinstall won't work. Can I compensate for Daylight Saving Time the user unfriendly way? ps. This is the version FreeBSD 3.4 that came on the latest CD's from Walnut Creek (december 1999). -- Bart.

This violates RFC822 but buggy MUA's like Microsoft Outlook (Outlook Express is OK) often to not encode 8-bit characters in base64 or QP in message headers.

Do you run syslog in a fashion that allows remote users to send log messages to your host across the network? Perhaps you need to run syslog with the -s flag.

Oh. Damned. Thanks for clearing that up. I'll have to check if gmtime returns the correct answer (2 hours difference?). So how can I choose plain "CET"?

For example: Primary Controller ata0 | +-> Master 1GB Seagate ad0 | +-> Slave 24x CDROM acd0 Secondary Controller | +-> Master 1GB Fujitsu ad1 | +-> Slave 512MB Seagate ad2 Now, suppose that you want to put a 2GB Seagate drive in your system. You'd like the 2GB Seagate on the same controller as the 1GB Seagate because, for some reason, it just won't work on the same controller as the 1GB Fujitsu. So you decide to take out the 512MB Seagate and move the CDROM drive onto the secondary controller. Now the ata(4) driver does this: Primary Controller ata0 | +-> Master 1GB Seagate ad0 | +-> Slave 2GB Seagate ad1 Secondary Controller | +-> Master 1GB Fujitsu ad2 | +-> Slave 24x CDROM acd0 Note that the 1GB Fujitsu's drive name has changed! Some people like this behaviour, because you don't end up with ad0 and ad2 without any ad1. Some people find it annoying, because you now have to update your /etc/fstab to reflect the change. If you find this behaviour annoying, you use ATA_STATIC_ID, which causes the numbering to work as follows before the move: Primary Controller ata0 | +-> Master 1GB Seagate ad0 | +-> Slave 24x CDROM acd0 Secondary Controller | +-> Master 1GB Fujitsu ad2 | +-> Slave 512MB Seagate ad3 Note that the system reserves "ad1" for the drive that would have been plugged into the primary controller as a slave. Now, after the upgrade, you have this: Primary Controller ata0 | +-> Master 1GB Seagate ad0 | +-> Slave 2GB Seagate ad1 Secondary Controller | +-> Master 1GB Fujitsu ad2 | +-> Slave 24x CDROM acd0 Note that the 1GB Fujitsu's drive name hasn't changed.

Prior to 4.0 the evironment variable existed but all it did was disable warnings. It didn't make things work :-( I fixed pwd_mkdb to work with a full 32 bit uid in 4.0 (at least on the i386) but I don't recommend that you use it because there are bugs elsewhere in the system that will screw you if you do. You should be safe using values up to 65535 but no higher. It's on my todo list to fix some of the other problems but it's not at the top (it's about 3rd at the moment). Paul.

I too have experienced problems with some ports. In some cases (eg pstoedit) I got around it by compiling with gcc 2.95 / g++ 2.95 instead of the stock version. In some cases it turned out that specifying a disable-nls config option broke the port (iirc, blowfish was an example). In other cases I never figured it out. You seem to be running 4.0 -- I'm running 3.4, could that be the problem? Is there some major change in 4.0 that this port does not handle properly? What can the other causes of non-working ports be? I'm interested in knowing.

You see, the information on when Daylight Saving Time sets in is actually kept in a database in /usr/share/zoneinfo/. So FreeBSD will automatically change between Daylight Saving Time and normal time at the appropriate time. So once you have used sysinstall to set the right timezone you don't have to worry about it any more. If DST is abandoned then an updated database should find its way into the FreeBSD sources pretty soon. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.csd.uu.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 6:34:39 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from paprika.michvhf.com (paprika.michvhf.com [209.103.136.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 6C36D37BDA5 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 06:34:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from vev@michvhf.com) Received: (qmail 2832 invoked by uid 1001); 3 Apr 2000 13:34:37 -0000 Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 09:34:37 -0400 (EDT) From: Vince Vielhaber To: Alan Clegg Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ccd on a pair of IDE drives?

If I use 'ttyd0' as a terminal in /etc/ttys - it doesn't work (or, rather - It does "appear" to work once I have COMCONSOLE selected)... _BUT_ if I use 'cuaa0' in /etc/ttys - I get a working terminal on COM1 - regardless... Maybe ttydX is more sensitive about handshaking / carrier detect or something? I'm not too clued up on the 'dialin' vs. 'dialout' tty/cuaa thing...

Although I succeeded in doing so, it was NOT exactly a child's play. Some special care WAS required. FreeBSD 4 is a *revolutionary* OS. NO emphasis here. If you take the time and have a look at the changes undergone by the 3 branch (e.g. by carefully reading the relevant UPDATING file), you will realize how deep and sweeping changes were made to the previous version. FreeBSD 4-**CURRENT**, like any other -CURRENT, was NOT for the average "Joe" user: one might have had to face difficult issues, and have had to fix subtle problems. Sometimes the OS was even unbootable. Which required (IMHO) either a dedicated machine and/or a dedicated slice for it -- at a bare minimum, mind you. Quoting from the make world tutorial (my old 3.4 handbook copy on my HD): ---------------------- Beginning of quotation ----------------------- 17.4. Using make world to rebuild your system Contributed by Nik Clayton . Once you have synchronised your local source tree against a particular version of FreeBSD (stable, current and so on) you must then use the source tree to rebuild the system. Take a backup: I cannot stress highly enough how important it is to take a backup of your system before you do this. While remaking the world is (as long as you follow these instructions) an easy task to do, there will inevitably be times when you make mistakes, or when mistakes made by others in the source tree render your system unbootable. Make sure you have taken a backup. And have a fixit floppy to hand. I have never needed to use them, and, touch wood, I never will, but it is always better to be safe than sorry. Subscribe to the right mailing list: The -stable and -current FreeBSD code branches are, by their nature, in development. People that contribute to FreeBSD are human, and mistakes occasionally happen. Sometimes these mistakes can be quite harmless, just causing your system to print a new diagnostic warning. Or the change may be catastrophic, and render your system unbootable or destroy your filesystems (or worse). If problems like these occur, a "heads up" is posted to the appropriate mailing list, explaining the nature of the problem and which systems it affects. And an "all clear" announcement is posted when the problem has been solved. If you try and track -stable or -current and do not read or then you a= re asking for trouble. ----------------------- End of quotation --------------------------- You might want to pay special attention to the last paragraphs :-) Seriously: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT (recently become -RELEASE and then -STABLE) if the fruit of an awful lot of development. Which entails, in turn, a **different** (more complex) upgrading procedure. A warning note *should* have been put in the make world tutorial (and/or elsewhere in the handbook) when the 4-CURRENT became 4-RELEASE. Well, I am afraid the FreeBSD guys missed this ... *sigh* However, the absence of the above mentioned warning note is NOT an *essential* issue -- in my Honest opinion. This is what I did in order to perform such a major upgrade: 1) I subscribed to the right mailing list (it was then freebsd-current; also, I had subscribed to -questions a few months before); 2) I read the UPDATING file; 3) I read the -current archives: that is, I browsed them **chronologically**, having a look at the letters written in the previous two months. And carefully studying the relevant ones. This gave me with an idea of the actual difficulties (as opposed to the "theory" ie the file UPDATING); 4) I created a dedicated slice, (re)installed 3-STABLE upon it and in the end I tried the upgrade to 4-CURRENT. N.B. Having subscribed to those lists, I found **a wealth** of information relating to the upgrading procedure (and problems.) So I did NOT even think of complaining about the missing warning note on the FreeBSD site :-) Mutatis mutandis, I think you should be able to do a similar job for 4-STABLE. You are in a better position: most of those problems have been fixed :-) My best wishes, Salvo Bartolotta To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 8: 6:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from home.worldy.com (ns1.WORLDY.COM [209.5.30.40]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7FE1637BEEF for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 08:06:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from tracker@worldy.com) Received: from tracker (ppp078.WORLDY.COM [209.5.30.108]) by home.worldy.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id LAA02388; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 11:04:51 -0400 Message-ID: <38E86C80.167EB0E7@worldy.com> Date: Mon, 03 Apr 2000 10:03:45 +0000 From: David Banning Organization: SKy-Tracker of Canada Inc.

I think the problem is that the packets never find their way to natd, not that natd is denying them. A packet comes in to ed2 destined for public_ip:80. The TCP/IP stack immediately recognizes that this packet is bound for this machine and the packet will not get sent through ed1. Thus, it never gets to natd, never gets redirected. A not particularly pretty workaround (but I think it will do it without breaking anything) is to add a rule, divert natd ip from 192.168.5.0/24 to public_ip 80 via ed2 There might be more proper and elegant ways to do this. Maybe another -questions reader knows of such a method. -- Crist J.

Here is my line: device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x13 Because it is a PnP card, you either need to tell your BIOS that you do NOT have PnP OS so the BIOS will initialize the card itself, or you have to use the kernel boot parameters to initialize the card. I have these two lines in my /boot/kernel.conf (in addition to other parameters) pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x534 port1 0x388 port2 0x220 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 3 pnp 1 3 os enable port0 0x330 irq0 9 For more info on PnP, see man pnp and man pnpinfo. Oh! CS4236 hangs the machine if the BIOS initializes it, this is a known bug of the chip. I hope CS4237B doesn't have this "feature". -- Mojahed To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 9: 2: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D240D37BE32 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 09:02:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #1) id 12c924-0001Q9-00; Mon, 03 Apr 2000 16:44:52 +0100 Received: (from ben) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12c924-000Iz1-00; Mon, 03 Apr 2000 16:44:52 +0100 Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 16:44:52 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Chris.Smith@raytheon.co.uk Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: What to expect in 3.5?

Not much, AFAIK. It's only being released because it was promised, and there won't be a 3.5 CD. The idea is that if 3.5 were released on CD and publicised, people (read: Linux users) would spread endless amounts of FUD like "FreeBSD 4 can't be stable or they wouldn't be releasing 3.5". I suggest you get rid of your fears about 4.x. It's called -STABLE for a reason, you know.

It will be, unless a) there's a good reason otherwise (see pgp and lynx above) or b) a new port has only just been added, in which case you should wait until the next package building run has finished (I'm not sure how long this takes). Why can't you just use the ports though? > is it OK to use 3.4 packages with 4.0? It should be, though you'll probably need some compatibility libraries installed (libc version is different).

I was wondering if there is anything that would cause me to need to keep around the first two versions, or would it be safe to deinstall them?

It doesn't work in "classic" Bourne shell (like the one found on Sun) but as long as the script you are working on will only be run in bash, or on a modern Bourne shell system (like freebsd) then there is no reason not to use it yourself. If on the other hand the script is being used for teaching or illustration purposes, it's better to use a syntax that's guaranteed to be portable across platforms.

During the install I have the option of setting up ppp and test the set on console 2 I think. Is there a way of getting back to that set up area without re-install the OS again? Which I have done about five times now. In the handbook section 15.2.1.2 it says to check my kernel for this entry: pseudo-device tun 1 Well, on my system it has the line without the 1 at the end. pseudo-device tun Do this mean I have to rebuild the kernel as the handbook says? I know saw several article on rebuilding the kernel but being new to FreeBSD I am not ready for that yet. I found a shell script for configuring PPP at http://flag.blackened.net/freebsd/, has anyone try this and is it any good? Is there any other materials or instructions that might help me?

You can either do this directly from the shell with export TERM=cons25l1 or, for a more permanent fix, change the references in /etc/ttys from cons25 to cons25l1.

Sure, we can add this to rc.local, but why isn't it in rc? The current behaviour is not (a) well-documented, (b) intuitive, or (c) in accordance with the user interface (UserConfig says "save and exit"). I can understand a rationale for it, but I still don't like it much.

CVSROOT is the name that the cvs utility uses to store its main data files and the RCS ,v files. Often, CVS uses the directory /home//cvsroot for the user . CVS and RCS are worth understanding if you are doing serious project development. RCS is primarily for the signle user or a very few users/developers; CVS (which uses RCS) is for more widely distributed projects. gary To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 13:11:45 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dt051n0b.san.rr.com (dt051n0b.san.rr.com [204.210.32.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7FCDA37B718 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 13:10:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Received: from slave (doug@slave [10.0.0.1]) by dt051n0b.san.rr.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id NAA02637; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 13:10:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 13:10:16 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug Barton X-Sender: doug@dt051n0b.san.rr.com To: Nick Barnes Cc: Richard Brooksby , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, Ravenbrook System Administrators Subject: Re: FreeBSD 3.4 kernel configuration not automatically saved In-Reply-To: <11779.954791244@raven.ravenbrook.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 3 Apr 2000, Nick Barnes wrote: > But seriously, it seems that adding "kget /boot/kernel.conf" somewhere > near the end of /etc/rc would revert us to the former behaviour of > FreeBSD (namely, that changes in UserConfig would get saved if the > boot completed successfully).

If you would like to effect change, please either create a patch that does what you want, or at very least document carefully and in detail what you consider the "bug" to be, and submit a PR. Just talking about how things should be rarely accomplishes anything around here.

OS: FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE NIC's: 3COM Etherlink III and 3COM Megahertz 56k modem. Media: Floppy disks / FTP via local lan to the internet. This box had 3.4-STABLE running without a hitch three days ago. I tried to cvsup it to 4.0-STABLE and for some reason while building, i decided to use the -k flag on make installworld :( . After I finally got it running again I made some backups i wiped the whole system clean. So with my shiny new install disks, the setup was goin fine, the card inits and the installation begins. However within a meg or two of transfer it dies. What I have tried: 1) all possible irq/memory configurations within sysinstalls limits. Including the default recommendations, which did not work. 2) dissabling as many devices as possible via dell's BIO's, to try and free up the pool. 3) tried the card in a different slot, and remove the other card. 4) a different server 4) kick it down the freeken stairs. From the emergency shell if I bring the device down, then re-init, it begins transfer again, but only for a few seconds. Ping requests lag to around 300 until it goes down. Any ideas?

I also apologize if the answer to this one is posted somewhere I've not found yet. If so, feel free to flame me while you point me in the right direction. I am having trouble getting a modem to work at all - incoming and outgoing (I have tried several modems with this new FreeBSD box - ones that work fine on other FreeBSD boxes). Possible hints: It is a PCI modem (though I also tried an ISA and it didn't work either) Under 'network status', my daily email log shows an '*' next to tun0. When my system boots up, I do see: sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0: type 16550A sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa sio1: type 16550A when I tried an ISA modem I got sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa sio0: type 16550A sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa sio1: type 16550A I don't think this matters but . . . When I try to use ppp to connect to an ISP, I get a 'chat script failed' error. I have used an identical ppp.conf on another machine which works fine. When I look in the /var/log/ppp.log, it shows going through the chat script normally (no errors) until it tries to dial and it shows: . . . Phase: PPP Started (background mode). Phase: bundle Establish Phase: deflink: closed -> opening Phase: deflink: Connected!

My ethernet connection works fine. I have tried changing in ppp.conf the 'set device' to both cuaa0 and cuaa1 (cuaa2 and cuaa3 too) to no avail. It also does not 'answer' incoming phone calls. If there is somewhere I might look for reference, please let me know. I've been beating my head against the wall for quite a bit on this one.

No, NE2000 cards work with the ed driver. My Realtek NE2000 compatible does, anyway. :-) rl is for 8129/8139, the NE2000 compatible one is 8029 (at least mine is and a couple of other people who have mentioned it).

The actual size of a floppy is 1440KB (1440*1024 bytes), which is not 1.38MB by any normal definition of MB. I would guess you're trying to copy it to a DOS formatted floppy rather than doing an image copy with dd(1) or a similar program.

So, why can I do it safely (apparently) with FreeBSD but not with Linux? -- David Kanter djkanter@nwu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 18: 3:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gershwin.tera.com (gershwin.tera.com [207.224.230.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EEF3137B597 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 18:03:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kline@tera.com) Received: from tera.com (athena.sea.tera.com [207.224.230.169]) by gershwin.tera.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id SAA20157; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 18:04:03 -0700 (PDT) Received: by tera.com (8.8.8+Sun/SMI-SVR4) id SAA16799; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 18:03:43 -0700 (PDT) From: kline@tera.com (Gary Kline) Message-Id: <200004040103.SAA16799@tera.com> Subject: Re: $CVSROOT In-Reply-To: <20000403223351.J85754@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> from Ben Smithurst at "Apr 3, 0 10:33:51 pm" To: ben@scientia.demon.co.uk (Ben Smithurst) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 100 18:03:43 -0700 (PDT) Cc: kline@tera.com, Ryugen@palaver.org, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL23 (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 According to Ben Smithurst: > Gary Kline wrote: > > > CVSROOT is the name that the cvs utility uses to store its > > main data files and the RCS ,v files.

With the late 3.x releases and the 4.0 (etc) release, inetd is built with tcp-wrappers support. I decided against using inetd and going with xinetd (I like it better) and compiling tcpd from /usr/src/contrib/tcp_wrappers and moved the bin to /usr/libexec Anyways, it's "working" as it were, but there's a issue I haven't been able to resolve yet, hosts.allow works but I get this error (couldn't find reference to it) with calling twist from a particular rule. Don't know about spawn (such as fingerd uses) as I don't use finger. xinetd was compiled from the ports (xinetd-2.1.8.8p2) with libwrap support: Apr 3 19:58:38 area51 xinetd[22326]: error: /etc/hosts.allow, line 68: twist option in resident process line 68 reads: : twist /bin/echo "You are not welcome to use %d from %h." my /etc/hosts.allow is a stock /usr/src/etc/hosts.allow I realize how feeble this sounds, but I don't understand the error message (and thus don't know where to begin to fix it) otherwise they work fine together. Anyone else encounter this or enlighten me as to what it's complaining about so I can go make it happy?

One is 2.2.8 and is fine for the purposes of this question. One is 3.4-RC#4 Fri Dec 17 1999, and it also has no significant problems, although I don't know why I installed 3.4-RC and never upgraded it. Two of them are 3.4-RELEASE Mon Dec 20 1999. If I telnet to either of them, it does not prompt for a password if I enter an invalid user id: it simply prints "Login incorrect" and displays the login prompt again. This allows a bored attacker to try logins until he hits a valid userid. One of the two 3.4-RELEASE systems has a kernel built from 3.4-STABLE sources Mon, Mar 27, 2000. The other uses the GENERIC kernel from the original install. Both seem to behave the same. So: 1) Is this a known problem that I just couldn't find in the archives, or 2) have I managed to misconfigure something to cause this? I'm not at all sure I have enough drive space left (not to mention spare time) to build a 3.4-STABLE system. And yes, I normally use SSH. I would have discovered this much sooner if I didn't. -- Bob +-------------------------------------------------------- | Bob Johnson | bobj@atlantic.net +-------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 19:35:40 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fremont.bolingbroke.com (adsl-216-102-90-210.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net [216.102.90.210]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0532737B758 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:35:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hacker@bolingbroke.com) Received: from fremont.bolingbroke.com (fremont.bolingbroke.com [216.102.90.210]) by fremont.bolingbroke.com (Pro-8.9.3/Pro-8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA99586; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:35:26 -0700 (PDT) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:35:26 -0700 (PDT) From: Ken Bolingbroke To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: Caleb Walker Subject: RE: dhcpd In-Reply-To: <000001bf9ddb$40a07740$2001a8c0@iscaleb> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 3 Apr 2000, Caleb Walker wrote: > I did get it installed that was the easy part.

I do not want DHCP to assign address for this interface. Yes, and the answer is in the man page: The names of the network interfaces on which dhcpd should listen for broadcasts may be specified on the command line. This should be done on systems where dhcpd is unable to identify non-broadcast interfaces, but should not be required on other systems. If no interface names are specified on the command line dhcpd will identify all network interfaces which are up, elimininating non-broad- cast interfaces if possible, and listen for DHCP broad- casts on each interface. So, if you want dhcpd to assign addresses off the xl1 interface but not the xl0 interface, then you need to specify just the interface you want, for example: /usr/local/sbin/dhcpd xl1 Ken To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 19:40:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.enteract.com (mail.enteract.com [207.229.143.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1208A37B722 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:40:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dscheidt@enteract.com) Received: from shell-2.enteract.com (dscheidt@shell-2.enteract.com [207.229.143.41]) by mail.enteract.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id VAA77290; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 21:40:15 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dscheidt@enteract.com) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 21:40:15 -0500 (CDT) From: David Scheidt To: Derrick Baumer Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dumb terminal vendor In-Reply-To: <200004030245.TAA01951@earthlink.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 On Sun, 2 Apr 2000, Derrick Baumer wrote: > I have this sinking feeling that this is a dumb question (no pun > intended, honest), but can anyone recommend a dumb terminal to connect > to my 3.4-STABLE box, as well as a vendor to supply said terminal?

Just about any ASCII terminal will do. I like DEC vt{234}20 with an LK201 keyboard, but have used all sorts of terminals with FreeBSD. Various VTs, HP 700/94s, AT&T 630 and 730s (a pretty nifty terminal, with windowing and a mouse, but not really common), Wyse clones and who knows what else. I wouldn't buy one new; they are shockingly expensive. See if you can't get someone to give you one; there are lots sitting around in closets. If you do buy one secondhand, pay attention to the keyboard. They tend to use proprietary keyboards, which can cost more than you paid to replace. Some also have funky keyboard mappings, but you can either get used to them, or modify the keyboard map.

Being rude is NOT the best way to make people want to help you. Neither is forgetting to cc -questions when you reply. Anyway, I'm not sure why CVSROOT has anything to do with "make world", you do not need a CVS repository to make the world. All you need is a checked out copy of the source tree in /usr/src. While this MAY be obtained using cvs (which you need CVSROOT pointing at your copy of the repository for), it is common to use cvsup for this. Take a look at "Synchronizing Your Source" in the FreeBSD Handbook for more information, or the sample cvsup supfiles under /usr/share/examples/cvsup. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 3 21: 7:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CF2EE37B771 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 21:07:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA38077; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 00:06:14 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from cjc) Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2000 00:06:14 -0400 From: "Crist J.

I just got the 3.4 cds and a second IDE drive that I put in the second bay. I copied the files to the DOS partition on the primary IDE drive (because the second drive now occupies the cdrom bay) and proceeded to the installation. I then, set up the bios to restart on the second drive by default and restarted. The bios kicks in and the drive is detected. I boot on the command line and hit ENTER to continue. The first time the unit booted I hung in the ISA detection process. Every time I hung I have to remove both power adapter and battery to reset the machine. The next time I restarted the system, I got to the point where I read the following messages: wt0 not found wcd0 not found changing root device to wd0s1a error 22 panic can't mount root. Restart in 15 seconds (I need to take out battery and power adapter here too!) The problem seems to be the change to wd0s1a because if I drop in the command line prior to booting, the loaddev and currdev are disk1s1a. Does anyone have any idea how I can change the boot params to point to the right partition for root? Is there a program like pdisk or fdisk under DOS that I can use to see the disk partitions?

The 8 character limit is a function of that system. If you want to fix it, do this: Use vipw (as root) to open /etc/passwd. For each account that you want to fix, add the string "$1$" to the beginning to the encrypted password string. Quit vipw, and then run passwd to set the right password for each user you changed. The reason this works is that the crypt library searches for the string "$1$" at the beginning of the password to figure out if it is md5. Once you put it there once, the system will preserve it, thus allowing you to use md5 passwords (which can be longer than 8 characters). -- Ray Kohler When you're not looking at it, this fortune is written in FORTRAN.

Although what I told you about flagging the console as insecure was sound advice in some circumstances, it's just going to lead you into a false sense of security in this case. Anyone who knows about boot -s probably also knows how to create boot floppies. Getting into your PC won't be very difficult. Removing the floppy drive from your box may help, provided that you have some way of ensuring that nobody opens the box up with a screwdriver or saw. Ciao, Sheldon.

Do you understand how twist works? It exec()'s the twist program (/bin/echo in your case), replacing the running process. That means that the running copy of xinetd is going to disappear. :-) > I realize how feeble this sounds, but I don't understand the error > message (and thus don't know where to begin to fix it) otherwise they work > fine together.

I'm personally attached to our own inetd, so I won't comment. :-) If you insist on using xinetd, I'd suggest using the spawn option instead of the twist option. Spawn runs the command as a child process. Ciao, Sheldon.

Weird. I'm using 5.0-CURRENT and I don't see this. Two things come to mind, though: 1) Are you _sure_ you're using the stock /usr/libexec/telnetd ? 2) Are you perhaps using Kerberized telnet?

Either you've already had this question answered, or you're asking a recently asked question almost verbatim. :-) I believe that the problem is in loading the kernel directly, instead of using the boot loader.

While MD5 does allow longer passwords, DES has the advantage of being cross-platform -- e.g. you can copy crypted passwords between FreeBSD boxes and SUN boxes. > My hunch is that I should use a different encryption scheme for > /etc/master.passwd I'd recommend that you spend some time thinking about the difference it actually makes. In the real world, the biggest problem is not the length of a password, but the ease with which it may be guessed by testing it against common permutations of dictionary words. I'd suggest that, unless you host an enormous number of shell users, you're probably better off educating the users you do have regarding the safe selection of passwords. If you like, you can direct them to http://people.freebsd.org/~sheldonh/passwords.html which is taken from the security FAQ supplied with Alec Muffett's Crack utility (available in the FreeBSD ports tree, described at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/).

Yes there is, but this is an FAQ and there's a ton of information on this in the freebsd-questions archives. :-) Before you go hunting, consider that you'll have to arrange for your users to change their passwords.

Isn't cistron's limitation (in contrast with Merit) that is requires usernames and passwords to be in the system user password files? Anyway, if you're happy with that, the question you need to ask your Novell support buffs is whether there's any way to export your userlist in plain text, with passwords in either pain text, crypted MD5 or crypted DES. Once you know what the exported information from the Novelle server will look like, we can better help you figure out where to go next. Make sure that replies are copied to the list.

You can use the full mount command. Normally you type this: > mount -t To mount a file system. For example, for an atapi CD-ROM, the device is "/dev/acd0c", the destination is "/cdrom" and the file system type is "cd9660". Thus the full mount command is > mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom However, the /etc/fstab file can be used to provide shortcuts. If you look in /etc/fstab, you will notice that you have a line that looks like this: /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 Thus, when you type "mount /cdrom", it looks in /etc/fstab, finds the line with "/cdrom" in it and fills in the missing pieces. Now, there isn't a line in /etc/fstab for you're floppy, so you are just going to have to use the full command. For example, to mount a MS-DOS floppy on "/mnt", you would do the following: > mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt If you want to mount a BSD floppy, then you don't have to specify the filesystem and can use this command instead: > mount /dev/fd0 /mnt For instructions on formatting BSD floppies, look in the file /etc/disktab. For more info on mount in general, read the mount(8) manpage. Hope this helps.

Isn't it funny how I've had no similar problem in all the time this system has been running, and it crops up when others are reporting similar problems. Meanwhile, I'd really like to know how to get cron working without drowning me in hundreds of errors. I've rebooted since it started, and the errors are still being churned out. It feels like something's been changed permanently. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 4 4:43:52 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from enterprise.sanyusan.se (enterprise.sanyusan.se [212.209.55.83]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EF64A37B627 for ; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 04:43:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from anders@enterprise.sanyusan.se) Received: (from anders@localhost) by enterprise.sanyusan.se (8.9.3/8.9.3) id NAA35731 for questions@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 13:43:36 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from anders) Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2000 13:43:36 +0200 From: Anders Andersson To: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: NAT/Gateway routing problems?

Being rude is NOT the best way to make people want to help you.  Neither
is forgetting to cc -questions when you reply.

Anyway, I'm not sure why CVSROOT has anything to do with "make
world", you do not need a CVS repository to make the world.  All you
need is a checked out copy of the source tree in /usr/src.  While
this MAY be obtained using cvs (which you need CVSROOT pointing at
your copy of the repository for), it is common to use cvsup for
this.  Take a look at "Synchronizing Your Source" in the FreeBSD
Handbook for more information, or the sample cvsup supfiles under
/usr/share/examples/cvsup.

I read the parts you mentioned...   .. perhaps I should add that I did not build not set-up this particular computer and  there IS no /usr/src source tree.. it is in an attempt to create/replace it, etc that I began working with (and misunderstanding) CVS ..

There is just a problem associated with it. From what I understand, the loader does a better job of making the kernel symbols available to those applications that need them. Ciao, Sheldon.

I made some cosmetic edits to the active lines in /etc/crontab and cron stopped reporting those errors from that moment on. Later on, root dutifully sent me my StarTrek Night reminder email courtesy of cron, with no complaints. Probably all that was significant was that the file was changed and therefore re-read by cron. Might a corrupted crontab file in var cause this? Damn, I should have kept a copy. My personal crontab was mucking up too, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow before its jobs are due again. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 4 5:15:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from localhost.net (pm2-67.cityscope.net [209.16.48.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D6DCF37B5A0 for ; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 05:15:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bahwi@technologist.com) Received: from localhost (bahwi@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id GAA00732 for ; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 06:14:49 GMT (envelope-from bahwi@technologist.com) Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2000 06:14:49 +0000 (GMT) From: bahwi X-Sender: bahwi@localhost.net To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Creating an ext2fs partition?

I'm not sure if it was on this list, but one security conscious person would leave the floppy drive installed, but install it facing into the case. That way he could remove the system cover if he needed access to the floppy and didn't have to carry around an extra floppy drive.

Hmm, a crontab file that triggers this activity would be a great data point... My working hypothesis has been that the memory corruption problems in cron are due to signals and malloc library re-entrancy (as was the case with inetd(8)). I have changed cron in the same way inetd(8) was changed in rev 1.44. I am interested in having people try the changes to see if they fix these and other related problems.

The serial ports on these boxes are known good, they can drive modems just fine, the cable is also known good, I've used it between two Ultra 5's in the recent past. The baud rates are the same. I've visited the handbook, the FAQ, and the mailling list archinves, the instructions there are the same as I remember them. I've had this configuration working between two 3.0 boxes in the past. I don't remember it being this difficult. Are there now some magic "stty" settings needed when using one freebsd box as a serial terminal plugged into another freebsd box?

Tag RELENG_3 will get you the most up to date copy of /src within version 3. Otherwise known as 3-stable. Tag RELENG_3_4_0_RELEASE would get you a version of /src that matches what was released as version 3.4 Tag RELENG_3_4 will get you nothing since it's not a valid tag. -- Kevin Street street@iname.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 4 7:39:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cytosine.dhs.org (cx272244-a.orng1.occa.home.com [24.1.177.149]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 87DDA37B9F8 for ; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 07:39:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bhishan@cytosine.dhs.org) Received: (from bhishan@localhost) by cytosine.dhs.org (8.10.0/8.10.0) id e34Ed4L02428; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 07:39:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Bhishan Hemrajani Message-Id: <200004041439.e34Ed4L02428@cytosine.dhs.org> Subject: Re: identd for network In-Reply-To: <20000404162859.B37004@enterprise.sanyusan.se> from Anders Andersson at "Apr 4, 2000 04:28:59 pm" To: Anders Andersson Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2000 07:39:03 -0700 (PDT) Cc: "Joseph T.

On my web server, I'd rather risk an occasional request being hung up in the middle rather than risking the loss of log information.

Foo. It's just a different way of programming.. As long as you realize that and don't try to do C programming in Java, you'll be fine! I've jumped around from language to language, some OO languages, some not -- it's not that hard as long as you know what you're getting into. > Do you think that's true?

There seems to be something about a uniprint profile for the 740. Also, Gimp-Print (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net) lists several Epson Stylus printers, but not the 760. This is intended for use with the Gimp, but they also have an Epson Stylus driver which they've written for use with Ghostscript. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gdevstp700/?cvsroot=gimp-print I've never tried these.

I downloaded the ISO image for FreeBSD 4.0 last Friday. Burned it to CDs, installed it on my home PC, and definitely love it! Earlier today, I tried to install FreeBSD 4.0 on Compaq Proliant 1600. This baby would be a very important production machine. It has Pentium III 550 MHz, 128 megs of RAM, and a Compaq SmartArray RAID 5 controller. The array controller was configured with Compaq SmartStart CD, which apparently installed an MS-DOS 6.x? on the array with some diagnostics or configuration tools. Just FYI, the array has 3 harddrive (each 9.1 gigs SCSI-2) After configuring the system using Compaq SmartStart, it rebooted, and I inserted FreeBSD 4.0 CD, and it boot from the CD. All installation procedure went fine. FreeBSD can detect the array, and installing just fine, until... it finally printed a message like this, "MAKEDEV returns a non zero status" and it told me that the installation finished with some error. Then, I rebooted the machine, installed again from scratch. This time, the error didn't occur. All went fine till the last step, but, after I rebooted the machine, the FreeBSD bootstrap loader told me that it can't load /kernel Oh my God, I said to myself, what the heck went wrong? Finally I decided to give it another try. I installed it one more time, now erasing the whole array partition, including the previously mentioned Compaq tools partition. I used the whole array, and the installation seemed to go fine. Till I rebooted, and it showed the same error. "Can't load /kernel" Weird... I'm not a FreeBSD novice, but really not that expert too. I have never use RAID 5 before, and I really don't understand the concept. All I now that the SmartArray will take care of everything, and FreeBSD will just see one big drive that it suppose to reside to. To be honest, I have even never touched a Compaq system before. I usually use an ASUS motherboards, and all I have to do to go to the BIOS is press DEL. How can I achieve the same thing on Compaq Proliant system? I know the trouble isn't in my CD. I used the same CD on my home machine without any trouble. The installation steps I performed on the Proliant system is as the same as what I did on my home PC (generic P-200MMX system with 5 gigs of IDE harddisk). And maybe the problem isn't related to misconfiguration of the array controller. But why won't it boot from the array? Please help... Thanks a lot in advance...

You still don't need CVS. Cvsup can be used to create /usr/src when none exists to start with. Just take one of the sample cvsup files (stable-supfile probably), change bits you need to (*default host needs changing to your nearest mirror), run cvsup as described, and it should start populating /usr/src for you.

I' > d like to keep it pure IP. You can use at least netatalk, it is a file and print server for Unix in general and there's also a FreeBSD port. It can run IP-only, but your FreeBSD/netatalk box won't appear in any MacOS Chooser when there's no AppleTalk (to be more specifix, EtherTalk) support, as this part of the communication is still done with EtherTalk. You can access the machine with AppleTalk-over-IP when your Macs support it (there are updates available). But you want to appear it in the chooser, so go with EtherTalk. Under FreeBSD, this is no hassle, there's the NETATALK kernel option for supporting that protocol and there's CAP which even doesn't need that (but instead of it, Berkeley packet filters).

But it is not the videocard, but the floppy which is supposed to be detected AFTER this line? I also only get this when booting from disk, never from harddisk, and the second try (with a hard reset inbetween, with *exactly* the same parameters) always succeeds. So probably the first time the fd0 controller is reset some way that enables the second time to function. My machine is a Cyrix p150+, which is also non-mmx. This machine also has the weird habit that if I don't push the floppy in the drive BEFORE the bios detects the drive (after the memory test), it doesn't see it, and can't boot from it. Also the fd- light stays on in those cases.

Works mostly fine. I haven't gotten sound to work, but it's not a priority. Suggestion: For some of the specific hardware, it would be nice to have a collection of GENERIC kernel config files tweaked for the particular hardware. It would give people a place to start trying to get specific areas working. This isn't as feasible for generic PC hardware since it's so varied, but for highly integrated machines it might be useful. -- Alan Edmonds, KB5ZUY Sterling Software M/S 132 Phone: +1-972-801-6485 5800 Tennyson Pkwy.

I'm no expert on this, but (at the risk of upsetting the more knowledgeable people): according to the documentation FreeBSD 4.0 is not yet ready for mission critical use, and FreeBSD on the alpha is also very much a work in progress -- so FreeBSD 4.0 on alpha definitely does not seem like a good idea for a "very stable" machine. On alphas, maybe Net/OpenBSD may be a better idea, since they have a longer history behind them?

While there are a few issues to be ironed out in FreeBSD 4.0, they're things a lot of people won't even see (e.g. tcpdump not installed if you don't select the crypto distribution). In terms of stability and performance, FreeBSD 4.0 is cut from an excellent vintage if you talk to people in the know. FreeBSD 4.0 ships with the amr driver, although you'd have noticed that it wasn't mentioned in the release notes. You should probably chat to the author of the driver, Mike Smith . Please note that Mike is a _very_ busy guy, so the more detailed a description of your configuration, the better. I have absolutely no idea what sort of configuration options are available for the actual hardware, so I can't be more specific in my advice. But try to tell him as much about the way things are configured as possible. Also, try to include in your message the output of a verbose boot. From the boot prompt, do ``boot -v'' and then, when you get into single-user or multi-user mode, use the dmesg(8) command to reproduce the boot probe messages. Good luck! Sheldon. PS: I saw that you got at least one message from someone suggesting that FreeBSD 4.0 is not for use in the production environment. While it must by now be obvious that there are many opinions floating around, I'd urge you to insist that people substantiate such claims. Also, remember that many people confuse stability with minor issues like the tcpdump problem mentioned above. :-) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 4 12:41:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.ops.uunet.co.za (axl.ops.uunet.co.za [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D04C137B9A1 for ; Tue, 4 Apr 2000 12:41:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.ops.uunet.co.za) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.ops.uunet.co.za) by axl.ops.uunet.co.za with local-esmtp (Exim 3.13 #1) id 12cZCX-000ONi-00; Tue, 04 Apr 2000 21:41:25 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: void Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: 5.0-CURRENT to 4.0-STABLE In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 04 Apr 2000 19:42:22 +0100." <20000404194221.A14307@firedrake.org> Date: Tue, 04 Apr 2000 21:41:25 +0200 Message-ID: <93725.954877285@axl.ops.uunet.co.za> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 04 Apr 2000 19:42:22 +0100, void wrote: > Well, I accidentally brought my machine onto the 5.0 branch by not > editing my supfile when the versions changed.

I wrote because (a) the more knowledgable people often don't answer such general questions (including this one, so far, at least on-list) (b) the release notes clearly discourage you from using 4.0 unless you're an early adopter or developer; that seems quite factual to me (c) I myself was ticked off long ago for talking about problems in 3.0, since it was not meant for newbies (this was in a private mail) (d) maybe my mention of linux or other BSD's offended you (I expected that), but it's a fact that linux works well for us on the alpha. It's compatible with all our hardware and is fast and stable, for our kind of load. I advocate FreeBSD readily when appropriate but I'm not religious about it. This case looks clearly inappropriate to me. So, if you disagree with any of that, it would have been nice if you had corrected me rather than just send such an uninformative message. Rahul.

Sorry, but this is an incorrect statement, ICMP_BANDLIM does not limit what comes in, but rather what goes out.

Here's a snippet from the man page I thought would be handy in your situation: -- snip -- Currently, the only internal service to take arguments is ``auth''. With- out options, the service will always return ``ERROR : HIDDEN-USER''. The available arguments to this service that alter its behavior are: -d fallback If the real ident service is enabled, return this user for every request. If the real ident service is disabled, then this flag, instead of returning an error if getting the socket credentials or looking up the user name fails, return a default fallback user name to the requesting ident client. This is primarily useful when running this service on a NAT machine. -r Offer a real ``auth'' service, as per RFC 1413. All the remain- ing flags apply only in this case. -- snip -- It should look like this in /etc/inetd.conf: -- snip -- auth stream tcp nowait root internal auth -r -d nat-user -- snip -- Replace ``nat-user'' with whatever you desire.

Well, I can't find it on the freebsd site, so maybe I'm wrong about the present official policy. But here's what the slashdot post said (posted by nik, so I assume he quotes Jordan correctly): ....And before you all rush off to upgrade your production servers, read on for a brief message from Jordan Hubbard, FreeBSD's Release Engineer, and to find out where to download the release from. "As with all FreeBSD releases ending in .0, the project recommends that production environments wait at least one or two releases after it before moving mission-critical services over. These dot-zero releases are primarily aimed at the developers and early adopters who are willing to work on refining the technology until it's production-ready. The 4-stable branch will also not be created until just before 4.1 is released, the period following a .0 release being the best time to collect serious feedback before branching the tree." (http://slashdot.org/bsd/00/03/14/2355207.shtml) And the following is from the official announcement of 3.0: This release is primarily aimed at developers and early-adopters, though many ISPs have reported good results when using it in production (not that we recommend this to any but the most highly skilled). See the release notes for more information. (http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.0R/announce.html) - Rahul.

While the quote from Jordan certainly sounds right, I'd make two observations: 1) As the release date was pushed further and further back, confidence in the release grew. 2) The people I look up to within the project are very complimentary regarding the performance and stability of 4.0. Things that would deter folks from installation in the production environment are things like installation nits, a new IDE/ATAPI driver that doesn't support some really old crusty hardware and has been reported to not detect some modern hardware (NOTE: not a stability issue), a new sound driver that ... (doesn't matter what the problem is, since sound is mission critical for only a very small number of users). Anyway, you've certainly proven that it's unreasonable to be jumping down your throat about your comments. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Do you have to be such a dick? The guy was genuinely trying to help, put a caveat on what he was saying, and then, when amicably questioned about it, showed why he was saying what he said. Which, I might add, was infinitely more helpful than your email. To quote yourself: "...if you have nothing factual to say, then it's best not to speak at all." Maybe you should try following your own advice. By the way, I would assume from the email address in your .sig that you are in some way related to the FreeBSD team. I certainly hope that the attitude you've displayed here isn't reflective of the rest of the team, because if it is, then I for one will rethink my decision to use FreeBSD.

I installed 4.0-R yesterday, cvsup-ed, and built 4.0-S and a new kernel. Since then, ppp doesn't behave. Under 4.0-R, it was fine, using my ppp.conf file from 3.4-S. Under 4.0-S, ppp (when run in user mode, on the command line) goes to "Ppp" and then back to "ppp" and hangs up. If I use 'term' and the at commands manually, I can make it work (though it doesn't set a default route - I add that, too, by hand), this is a major pain in the rear. I compared my 3.4-S ppp.conf to the new one that came in /usr/share/examples/ppp with 4.0-S, and don't see any differences. Any ideas?

Why do you think I consider the GUI quite poor? At the price of replace- ment shirts it doesn't take many GUIs to make ME poor. I must need a new notebook. I hear the one called "Etch-A-Sketch" is quite nice, and the "erase" functions well. It even has a more advanced GUI that doesn't ruin shirt pockets.

I'm a FreeBSD "newbie" (you would call it so, wouldn't you?), and I have installed a machine with FreeBSD 3.4 (distribution from Walnut Creek CDROM). The system works fine, except that the system doesn't answer for any ip-requests (ECHO REQ., FTP-Connect, NFS-Connect) before I didn't ping a machine. which machine that is makes no different.

I don't think that it's a problem with the ethernet card, because the computer seems to receive the packets.

I didn't tried to setup the computer with the dos-based AMI-SETUP program, so that I don't have seen all options, but in the official parts I didn't recognize sth. about APM. Therefore, the computer answers all packets, if I run a ping fw (firewall machine in LAN) on it. The only problem is after boot (it starts not to answering before I've send a packet out) And it seems I've lied - now my ping on it runs for 2 hours and runs again. But last time, I was for 2 weeks in holiday, I've runned a ping and this ping stops getting answers after ca. 9000 send packets.

This is the second most recommended method, since it allows you to grab the entire collection once and then only what has changed from then on.

In both cases real priorities of all 3 tasks are equal. Both examples are taken at "equilibrium". Are any reasons for such scheduling? Please copy reply to me.

It looks that way to me: # $FreeBSD: src/etc/inetd.conf,v 1.33.2.4 1999/11/18 09:45:15 des Exp $ # # Internet server configuration database # # @(#)inetd.conf 5.4 (Berkeley) 6/30/90 # #ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/telnetd telnetd -h #shell stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/rshd rshd #login stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/rlogind rlogind [etc.] ps shows that telnetd is not running when there is no connection, so I don't think it's being started somewhere other than inetd. I've tried telnetd without the -h option and got the same result. >2) Are you perhaps using Kerberized telnet? If you mean the client, I tried it with the telnet that's built in to Windows 95 and got the same result. The daemon is whatever got installed in the original installation, and ls -l shows it as: -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 62008 Dec 20 01:00 telnetd Which is the right date. I don't know about the size. I just discovered an important clue: I added a new user (with adduser), and attempted to log in as that user via telnet. It is treated as if the user didn't exist, i.e., there is no password prompt, despite the fact that the user exists in both /etc/passwd and /etc/master.passwd. In fact, it appears that only the user "bobj" gets a password prompt from telnetd. Other users, even though they are valid, do not. ls -l reports that the modification time for passwd, master.passwd, pwd.db, and spwd.db all match the time at which the new user was added, so they appear to be getting updated (what is spwd.db used by?). auth.conf looks like: # # $FreeBSD: src/etc/auth.conf,v 1.1.2.1 1999/08/29 14:18:39 peter Exp $ # # This file contains information on what types of authentication to use. # It is just the beginnings of a greater scheme. # auth_default = des # auth_list = passwd kerberos auth_list = passwd hosts.allow starts out with: # # hosts.allow access control file for "tcp wrapped" apps. # $FreeBSD: src/etc/hosts.allow,v 1.2.2.5 1999/08/29 14:18:45 peter Exp $ # # NOTE: The hosts.deny file is not longer used.

ALL : ALL : allow (and everything past that should be irrelevant, right?) skey.access contains: deny user root deny pam.conf contains: # Configuration file for Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM). # # This file controls the authentication methods that login and other # utilities use. See pam(8) for a description of its format. # # Note: the final entry must say "required" -- otherwise, things don't # work quite right.

Are there any configuration files I missed? I've got to get some sleep, so I'll have to pick this up tomorrow. I was able to do a buildworld to -STABLE on one of the systems today. I can try to find the time to actually install it if you think that will be informative, or I can keep poking at the existing one until the mystery is solved.

Hmm...it shouldn't matter whether the OS is "up and running" or not. The backend for the NIC is running and everything should be in place for it to get the info it needs from a valid DHCP server. *nix doesn't have the problems NT has when it comes to working with the hardware. No need to reboot or anything.

Despite of our disappointment and anger, we have tried to fix it by ourselves too, but it gets only similar error message. So we write to you expertise, hoping you can help us. We are urgent to get through this bottleneck, in which it totally stuck-up everything for an unreasonable long time!

Yeah, I understand that the 4 lines above are kind of pointless when I'm using the open flag on my firewall. On top of letting everything through let port 5x02 through also. Is there a way to debug this and tell where it's trying to route the packets? I tried tcpdump but since I'm on cable modem I get all kinds of garbage neighborhood LAN traffic. What should I be looking for if I tcpdump into a file?

So there is something wrong, but where? This is a clean install of 3.4-R with the 3.4-S source tree copied by: cd /usr ; (cd nfs_mount/usr ; tar Bpcf - src ) | tar Bpxf - Which should copy all the permissions of the original file system. I am root on both machines, so I don't see where the 'mkdir' should fail anyway. I did run this many times, both making clean and not making clean and the behaviour was the same. I will try a fresh copy of the source again and see if this is reproducable. Richard Grace ITworks Consulting Pty. Ltd.

The idea is that if 3.5 were released on CD > and publicised, people (read: Linux users) would spread endless amounts > of FUD like "FreeBSD 4 can't be stable or they wouldn't be releasing > 3.5". It will be mostly fixes in the 3.X branch (which will be in 3.X-STABLE as well) and possibly a few new things, but as Ben pointed out, there's not going to be a whole lot that's new since 4.X is the new -STABLE branch. As for the reason for not putting it on CD, there's really no need to do so. 4.1-R will be coming out around the same time, and there are way more people who will want that than 3.5. The original plan was to only send 4.0-R to subscribers who requested it, but in the end it was stable enough to send to everyone. If we pressed 3.5 CDs and shipped them to the subscribers along with 4.1 CDs, it be a total waste of money since most of them would end up as coasters because everyone will be using 4.X.

But there are 2 more questions: about wccp_router and security. Or, more exactly: I have: 1) host with squid (with 3 network interface: ip1, ip2 and ip3). 2) 2 "my" nets: net of routers and company LAN (net1:mask1 and net2:mask2) 3) number of routers (ipr1.1 ... ipr1.n, ipr2.1 ... ipr2.n, etc.) All routers connected to routers net with ipr{$i}.1. Net2 has internet (not private) address space and connected to ipr1.2. Squid connected to routers net with ip1 and ip2 interfaces and to company net with ip3, like this: ipr2.2| to uplink| to ___|_____ ___|_____ client| | | | | company ---|router2| |router1|-----| LAN ipr2.3|_______| |_______| | | routers net | |-- our local ----[switch]------ | servers and to ___|_____ ___|__|__ |--- workstations uplink| | | 1 2 | | ----|router3| | squid |-----| ipr3.2|_______| |_______|ip3 (hope you can see this) I want to: 1) redirect all web traffic from all routers to squid, using wccp. 2) allow our company LAN to use proxy directly. 3) prevent all others from accessing proxy directly 4) try to ballance load between all 3 squid interfaces. Can I do it? PS: for now only 1 router redirects requests to squid. Only ip1 is up. Both router and squid connected to cisco switch at 100Mbit full duplex. Traffic to squid is about 5Mbit/sec. But I see: Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll xl0 1500 00.50.da.3a.db.a3 241522 2780 252941 4 8740 xl0 1500 195.161.0.128 ip1 241522 2780 252941 4 8740 ^^^^ ^^^^ and a lot of timeouts on xl0. If I configure fxp (EtherExpress) instead of xl (3c905b), net dies after 5 mins because of timeouts. Why can it be so?

However, when I burn it into a CD-R, using Easy CD-Creator in Windows, the XF86336 directory files were corrupted. The files are shown, but the installation did not run smoothly. The preinst.sh and postinst.sh files were corrupted, as well as the rest of the *.tgz files. Anybody have the same problem? Or is the file I downloaded is corrupted. I can't use the MD5 checksum, because I'm using Windows. Is there any MD5 checksum utility for Windows? Thanks.

I have host with 3.4 installed. I want to upgrade it to 4.0. But I do not want to loose 3.4 (at least, for 1st time). I have following filesystems: /dev/wd0s1a on / (ufs, local, writes: sync 5 async 39) -- 3.4 lives here /dev/wd0s4f on /usr (ufs, local, writes: sync 6 async 53) /dev/wd0s4e on /var (ufs, local, writes: sync 114 async 173) /dev/wd0s1e on /4.0 (ufs, local, writes: sync 2 async 0) -- 4.0 will be here /dev/wd0s2f on /4.0/usr (ufs, local, writes: sync 2 async 0) /dev/wd0s2e on /4.0/var (ufs, local, writes: sync 2 async 0) So, I mounted filesystems as shown above, downloaded 'bin' directory of 4.0-RELEASE and untared 4.0 binaries to /4.0. Then I created devices in /4.0/dev, created /4.0/etc/fstab and rebooted. At loader I said: unload set currdev=disk1s1e boot kernel and got: ... Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle no devsw (majdev=0 bootdev=0xa0200400) Manual root filesystem specification: : Mount using filesystem eg. ufs:/dev/da0s1a ? List valid disk boot devices Abort manual input mountroot> What did I forget to do, what shall I type here and what does this message mean? (I mean what kernel did not find).

What you need is a print filter, or at least the various utilities a print filter uses to convert your .dvi, .ps, .etc... files into a format recognizable by your printer. Look at /usr/ports/print/apsfilter for a good starting point. Installing that port will install a number of dependent ports that provide various conversion facilities. Try it out and write again if you still have problems. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 3: 3: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net (emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 219F237BCA6 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 03:03:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk@earthlink.net) Received: from earthlink.net (sdn-ar-005orportP297.dialsprint.net [63.178.69.35]) by emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id DAA18611; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 03:02:53 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from bduk@localhost) by earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id CAA01828; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:33:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk) Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:33:43 -0700 (PDT) Posted-Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:33:43 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200004050933.CAA01828@earthlink.net> From: Derrick Baumer To: bright@wintelcom.net Cc: alexkwan@pacific.net.hk, questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <20000404201134.C20770@fw.wintelcom.net> (message from Alfred Perlstein on Tue, 4 Apr 2000 20:11:34 -0700) Subject: Re: Kill the uncomfortable message at boot time Reply-To: bduk@earthlink.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > From: Alfred Perlstein > > * Alex Kwan [000404 20:04] wrote: > > Hi! > > > > When I exec dmesg | more to checked the boot message, I have found > > following error message, but I have not theses cards and have not config > > these network and scsi interface on kernel config.

Once you know what you're looking for, try /pub/FreeBSD/ for a good starting point. Also, do consider purchasing the CD set from Walnut Creek (http://www.cdrom.com/) - you'll get immediate access to the entire system, including all ported applications that come with it, and it comes with a warm fuzzy feeling associated with helping the FreeBSD cause. Definitely a good investment. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 3: 3:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net (emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 615A337B968 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 03:03:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk@earthlink.net) Received: from earthlink.net (sdn-ar-005orportP297.dialsprint.net [63.178.69.35]) by emu.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id DAA18738; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 03:02:57 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from bduk@localhost) by earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id CAA01820; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:25:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bduk) Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:25:34 -0700 (PDT) Posted-Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:25:34 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200004050925.CAA01820@earthlink.net> From: Derrick Baumer To: jdunham@fc.net Cc: brameld@twave.net, jdunham@fc.net, dan@mostgraveconcern.com, abc@firehouse.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <200004042333.SAA45367@freeside.fc.net> (message from Jerry Dunham on Tue, 4 Apr 2000 18:33:28 -0500 (CDT)) Subject: Re: Dumb terminal vendor Reply-To: bduk@earthlink.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > From: Jerry Dunham > > Walter Brameld babbled: > > From brameld@twave.net Tue Apr 4 18:09:21 2000 > > > On Tue, 04 Apr 2000, in a never-ending search for enlightenment, Jerry Dunham wrote: > > > Dan O'Connor babbled: > > >> Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:18:27 -0700 > > > > > >>>Note in this context, "notebook" is not == "laptop".

Try to cvsup >again tonight. I just did, and i saw changes in ppp. Sometimes it is worth while to run *before* building. Recent additions to make.conf are a good, recent example. Along the same line is updating files in etc via mm and not rebuilding the rest of the system. Recent changes in pccard.conf.sample as an example. Can they make a difference, yes. Certainly if you are not sure what needs updating, then by all means build, install, merge, and remake devices every time,but don't forget about ports either. When libs change (libc_r on 3/22), it is a real good idea to rebuild everything including ports just in case. MySQL uses libc_r and I'd just built it too. 8-/ Jeff Mountin - jeff@mountin.net Systems/Network Administrator FreeBSD - the power to serve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 4:21:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hotmail.com (f181.law7.hotmail.com [216.33.237.181]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 17B4F37BDE4 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 04:21:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jmd526@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 83633 invoked by uid 0); 5 Apr 2000 11:21:07 -0000 Message-ID: <20000405112107.83632.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 209.220.228.2 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Wed, 05 Apr 2000 04:21:07 PDT X-Originating-IP: [209.220.228.2] From: "John Daniels" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: PHP and databases Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 07:21:07 EDT Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi: I am preparing to install Apache+PHP. I would like to be able to use both mysql and postgres (for transactional support). I know that I have to install the databases first. During the Apache+PHP install I will be asked to choose a database (default mysql) -- can I choose more than one? Also, a related question: how do upgrades work? Postgresql 7.0 is almost ready. If I install 6.5.3 first, will I need to reinstall Apache+PHP when I want to upgrade to 7.0? Does anyone have any clue when PHP 4 will be released? I know that they have had a release candidate out for a few weeks. Feel free to add whatever pointers/info that would help make these install work right (I am a newbie). I have searched the mailing lists and it seems the biggest problem is when people try to install themselves without using ports (I'm not sure why anyone would do that) or install Apache+PHP *before* the database(s).

Priority is a confusing name. A high priority indicates a CPU-bound process.

The short answer is that, no, you can't safely fsck a mounted filesystem on FreeBSD either. You're more likely to get away without damaging it, but "more likely" isn't much of a guarantee. Normally, if you really need to fsck on the run, you should shut down to single-user mode first, and dismount the filesystem. We do make an exception for the root filesystem, which is often fsck'd while mounted read-only. - Lowell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 6:59:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from duncan.cup.edu (duncan.cup.edu [158.83.1.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 69B5D37B548 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 06:59:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rad2921@cup.edu) Received: from radigan ([209.114.157.160]) by duncan.cup.edu with SMTP for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 9:53:17 -0400 From: "Tim Radigan" To: Subject: Upgrading to 4.0 from 3.1 Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 09:52:08 -0400 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi everyone, I'm new to this mailing list and kind of new to FreeBSD. I am attempting to upgrade my version (3.1) to 4.0. I used the cvsupit.tgz package found on FreeBSD.org. Everything finally updated but now I'm not sure what to do. I've read the FAQ and printed out the 14 pages on the make world command. I was just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to what I should do next. I've tried to upgrade before, but it failed miserably for some reason. I really don't want to go through the retrieval process of unbacking up my backup files, so if anyone can point me in the right direction as to what should/should NOT come after a CVS update, then please let me know. I know I should reboot into single user mode, but I'm not exactly sure what to do next since so many different documentations say different things. If anyone has any suggestions, or even a good source for documentation, please let me know. Thank you.

I don't know the canonical answer, but I suspect it has to do with the quantity of programs in ports, and the fact that there may be multiple versions of the same program in ports. For example, I'm looking at the /usr/ports/lang directory now, and there look to be ~9 versions of tcl included. It seems excessive to me to have all those installed on the same machine, but I guess some folks really like tcl ;). To get to the meat of the post, though, for people who really want to do this, something like this should work (adjust for the shell you're using, this works in zsh): (with /usr/ports/lang the current directory) for i in `ls`: do cd $i ; make install clean ; cd .. ; done If you want to do this one level higher up, just nest the for in another loop. NOTE: I have no idea whether (for example) the various versions of tcl will peacefully coexist or not, so I may be selling you rope, here.

Hmm...it shouldn't matter whether the OS is "up and running" or not. The backend for the NIC is running and everything should be in place for it to get the info it needs from a valid DHCP server. *nix doesn't have the problems NT has when it comes to working with the hardware. No need to reboot or anything.

WIN modems rely on software (driver) that performs some of the DSP functions. If the modem box say requires Pentium II or higher or something along those lines (and is cheap!) it is most likely a WIN Modem. Feel free to jump in and correct me if I'm wrong.

I can ping through this FreeBSD, but I can't ftp. The ftp client will stalk until timeout when try to make a ftp connection. the ftp client and ftp server in the same ip broadcast domain. I do setup the firewall, but it is totally open. I use inetd to call up ftpd. It is suppose to that someone ftp to my ftp server, inetd will bring up ftpd automatically. But using "ps waux" to check my process, I can't find ftpd up. I try call up ftpd directly by setting up echo " ftpd" && ftpd -D in /etc/rc.local. it's the same situation. Can anyone give me some suggestion? Thank you.

When using the pccard entry that is for my card, it doesn't work. I have to change the IRQ. No idea why. When i started with FreeBSD, i had problems with pcmcia. I asked another toshiba owner for his kernel config, and it worked. I'm lucky i got it, because if i hadn't i wouldn't have known enough to figure out the IRQ problem or how to find the correct one. I really lucked out. I wonder why that happened, since the entry in the sample conf file is the exact same model of modem, but the IRQ is wrong, at least for me. jm -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathon McKitrick -- jcm@freebsd-uk.eu.org To Microsoft: "Your tyranny I was part of, is now cracking on every side.

I don't user loader(8), and finally got around to fixing this. The problem is that the kernel linker wants module data for the kernel. It defaults to using incomplete data if none is present.

The ep driver have been dramaticly improved in 4.0. But yes, I know that these cards arent optimal. I have tested with another box with 3Com 905 cards and got almost as bad performance, that is why I suspect some other error. -- Anders Andersson anders@sanyusan.se Sanyusan International AB http://www.sanyusan.se/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 11:46:36 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hematita.dcc.ufmg.br (hematita.dcc.ufmg.br [150.164.10.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7D07637BC71 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 11:46:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from conway@dcc.ufmg.br) Received: from lecom.dcc.ufmg.br (lecom-gw [150.164.10.42]) by hematita.dcc.ufmg.br (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA13642 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 15:45:43 -0300 (EST) Received: from dcc.ufmg.br (variola.lecom.dcc.ufmg.br) by lecom.dcc.ufmg.br (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA04699; Wed, 5 Apr 00 15:36:53 EST Message-Id: <38EB88C6.55E24B83@dcc.ufmg.br> Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 15:41:10 -0300 From: Julio Conway X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en Mime-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Installation problems with FreeBSD 3.4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just after a full installation of 3.4 FreeBSD, I've got the folowing message: init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv0 init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv1 init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv2 . . . init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv7 init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv0 ... and this messages repeat forever, then I couldn't login.

The documents print properly, even through Samba. My only problem is this. After every print job, I get the "burst page". I've read about what this page is and that it's enabled by default because of sh=false. I've read that all you have to do to not have this page print is put the option sh=true. Now, I honestly can't figure out why in the name of all that is holy, this option is enabled by default, because I see people who WANT this option, would know how to go turn it on, but rather this way people who DON'T want this option have to search through several manpages before they even discover what this page is called, much less how to turn it off. Then we come to my problem. I have learned which option to set, either sh=true, or banner.disable=true, and I have set those options, trying both, several times, in several different orders. Every time I print, whether it's via Samba or directly through lpr, I get the damn burst message. There is no way my company will tolerate that kind of waste of paper. We kick out hundreds of sales orders and invoices daily. I've tried restarting the print daemon, Samba, and even rebooting my server :( No luck at all.

That's possible, true. Although if they have a semi-decent firewall it shouldn't be allowing this type of port scanning activity. Of course, he didn't think his firewall would let through ICMP either... Doug -- "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into existence?

Again, I don't use LyX, so I'm half-way guessing here. I think it would be safe to assume that LyX does use external facilities to convert its files to printable form, so you probably do have a few of the required utility programs installed. If you look in /var/db/pkg/, you should see Ghostscript listed there somewhere. Assuming you do, you'll need arrange to use that program as a filter to print out postscript files. You'll also need other utilities for printing files of other formats, and unless you feel like memorizing the command line options for all of them, you'll do well to install a print filter. I do not yet know exactly what the behavior is that you are experiencing, though. When you type lpr example.dvi do you get what you expected out of the printer? If you don't, you probably get gibberish, which means the file is not being converted (or filtered). You can either convert the file to postscript with dvips and print it with gs (man dvips, man gs) or you can install a print filter to do this stuff for you. Again, examine /usr/ports/print/apsfilter. One advantage of going this way is that it will install converters for a very wide range of file formats. LyX probably installed just what it needed for .dvi and .ps, but most likely didn't think you'd ever have any need to print out .html or .jpeg files. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 12:39:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sable.cc.vt.edu (sable.cc.vt.edu [128.173.16.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9785937B8A1 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 12:38:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brownej@vt.edu) Received: from mail.vt.edu (gkar.cc.vt.edu [128.173.16.40]) by sable.cc.vt.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA00886 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 15:38:52 -0400 (EDT) Received: from tazmania ([128.173.12.81]) by gkar.cc.vt.edu (Sun Internet Mail Server sims.3.5.1999.05.24.18.28.p7) with SMTP id <0FSK00KY16KR7Y@gkar.cc.vt.edu> for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 15:38:51 -0400 (EDT) Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 15:38:50 -0400 From: "Eric J.

The History, I've got freeBSD installed with a minimal ports collection, but I did select apache-1.3.9 to be installed.. now ordinarily this wouldn't be a huge problem as I've been reading Greg's book, and to install the tar.gz file I should have to go to /usr/ports/www/apache13 and do a make install (I've got all 4 install cd's, and even have the correct one mounted (cd #2)) unfortunately, make install runs Makefile in the /usr/ports/www/apache13 directory which calls for a file called apache_1.3.9.tar.gz unfortunately the only file that is similar that I can find on any of the cd's is apache_1.3.9+ssl_1.37.tar.gz...apparently all the ftp sites referenced in Makefile don't have that file either, and the result is not a terribly heartening one... needless to say, one file ain't the other...I tried editing Makefile to call apache_1.3.9+ssl_1.37.tar.gz and initially it works so long as i specify: make NO_CHECKSUM=yes install but then it starts asking me for files to patch...and at that point I once again have no clue... If anyone can help me out with this, I promise to think about naming my first born in your honor :) David Ward "I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances.

Our JetDirects have 3 ports, which are specified by rp=raw1 rp=raw2 >etc. Can I still use this option ? Ah, hmm, I don't have any of the 3-port Jetdirect cards. rp is still the remote queue, so it's not what you want, but there is probably a way. Maybe they use separate ports. Try maybe 9100, 9200, 9300, or 9100, 9101, 9102. You can telnet to the port and just type something, and when you disconnect it will print what you typed if you have the right port. >Hey, I found a page that referred me to a simple answer. It seems the >banner page is being inserted, not by lpd, but by the jetdirect itself. If Right, that's the whole problem.

If so, is the LED from the connection of your computer on, just after reboot? Does it turn on as soon as you send a packet? If this is the case, check that the LINK(0|1|2) option for your NIX is set correctly. It happened to me. This selects the connector of the network card. As soon as I send anything, the driver seems to select the proper connector by itself. But, setting LINK2 in the NIC options, in my case, selected the right connector at startup.

Was referring to the re-ordering. The changes you mention have not been MFC'd (yet). A better example would have been the re-ordering in rc.network for entropy reasons and later sshd's keygen. At the time there were so many changes requiring a rebuild. If, however, they was the only changes, a simple merge would work just fine. When NO_X and NO_FORTRAN were added to make.conf I merged before the build. Not something done often, but I do keep track of changes. Waiting for NO_UUCP to MFC. 8-) My point is that you don't have to rebuild the entire system, should keep track of commits, and if your problem is more than 2 hours old, update source and try again. Saying 2 hours is a bit facetious. However, it is possible to only receive part of a large commit. Track your branch and *all* commits. Real simple to search and check for updates or fixes and the mail (usually) comes *before* you see the source on the servers. Brian is always busy working on PP and if you watch commits to -current, then your fix may just be an MFC away.

My mouse (ps/2 generic) was wigging out under X but not console either so I let X4 detect the protocol and all worked out: Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Never had problems with the mouse under X 3.3.x however.

If you have the program, then use partition magic, to resize the windows partition. First defrag your Windows partition, to make shrinking by partition magic easier. Then shrink it to make 10 Gb of space, and if possible, move it to the end of the disk's area (this is nice to do because I'm not sure if BSD can boot from a partition that's way into your disk's area -- like one that starts at 5 Gb). Right before installing, you should have your disk separated in: 0 - 10 Gb: free area 10 Gb - end: windows C: drive At the end of installations you should have: 0 - 5 Gb: freebsd slice 5 - 10 Gb: linux primary partition 10 Gb: windows C: drive If you want to use a primary partition for a linux swap partition, you can change this to include a small primary partition as linux swap. - Giorgos Keramidas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 14:38: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.x-treme.gr (mail2.x-treme.gr [212.120.196.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6D25C37B8C2 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 14:38:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from keramida@diogenis.ceid.upatras.gr) Received: from hades.hell.gr (pat9.x-treme.gr [212.120.197.201]) by mail2.x-treme.gr (8.9.3/8.9.3/IPNG-ADV-ANTISPAM-0.1) with SMTP id AAA15979 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 00:37:45 +0300 Received: (qmail 2678 invoked by uid 1001); 5 Apr 2000 15:14:20 -0000 Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2000 18:14:20 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Frederik Meerwaldt Cc: spider 90 , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: partitions Message-ID: <20000405181420.D1808@hades.hell.gr> Reply-To: keramida@ceid.upatras.gr References: <20000405021424.40418.qmail@hotmail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: ; from Meerwaldt@t-online.de on Wed, Apr 05, 2000 at 07:59:53AM +0200 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 62 45 D1 C9 26 F9 95 06 D6 21 2A C8 8C 16 C0 8E Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Apr 05, 2000 at 07:59:53AM +0200, Frederik Meerwaldt wrote: > Hi! > > Delete Windows as it's the biggest bullshit.

Userconfig (the -c kernel part) sets a sysctl with all the changes made. After the system is booted, you can use kget to write to stdout the userconfig commands equivalent to the changes you made. Sysinstall uses similar functionality to write a /boot/kernel.conf during installation.

(It just occurred to me that I should have checked ports ... and I will before I continue.) I tried to untar it but forgot to add the "z" option, and of course tar complained that this was not a tar file, but lots of strange characters from the binary flew past the screen as it tried to figure this out. When it had finished, and I had realised my error, I found that when I did an "ls" command I got the following output: $ ls ??2p.n??g???xN????????e'?o???1+?d?o Desktop FreeBSD I??x??pyv?^???R?????????????R???????>????sn??N?????b6????\????k7?????f???W7?}???????~??l_??d?6?q?W?

I had earlier installed downloaded and installed the shockwave flash pluggin, and I believe I made the same mistake at that time, but I didn't get the same strange behavoir. I am running KDE, so I tried 1. opening a new terminal, 2. logging out of KDE and restarting X/KDE 3. logging out of my account 4. rebooting None of these changed the behavior. Other accounts on the system don't seem to be affected. Something was damaged or reset, but as a newbie I haven't a clue what it is or how to fix it. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Will this "desktop" package be any different than what's available now? If so, will it be an available upgrade for existing Applix users?

I'm not sure *WHY* but it seems that pcm handles it pretty well. I've got an ISA AWE64(value) and it works as it should and I'm running -current. Check out my modifications since 3.x here: device sbc device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 device pcm I wasn't sure what sbc to put in, so I put both and I get no errors. The cards works fine too. I'm assuming this might be the same for other SB cards. In 3.x I had the same snd0 drivers working for SB16 and my AWE64. Give it a shot and report back how it works. I'll swap cards later tonight just to verify that my SB16 does work in this setup.

It's supported and works well with a combination of the pcm/sbc drivers in 40 and 5.0, but in 3.x you'll need to use the snd0 driver (though pcm will still work). Others will recommend different chipsets.

I would not be to sure that Win98 can boot from a partition beyond 8GB limit. The way I'd prefer were to create tow small boot partions for linux and FreeBSD (max 500MB each). Than the windows partition and than the "real" FreeBSD and Linux partitions: 0- 500MB Linux /root 500-1000MB FreeBSD partition with slice for /root 1GB-xGB Windows98 xGB-yGB Linux partition (f.e. /usr) (extended part.) yGB-yGB+128MB Linux swap (extended part.) yGB+128MB-end FreeBSD partition for other slices (extended part.) If you plan to install other systems as Windows NT/2000 or OS/2 than a boot partition as for the unix clones are there required, too. Here I'm sure. But I think for more systems you should have really more disks.

I used it to create a primary partition, which I then used in the FreeBSD setup. If you're going to dedicate 5 Gb and then install Linux, you may run into the 1024 cylinder problem. So be aware of that before you bust out. Maybe you could do something like this: 1. Windows partition. 2. Linux /boot partition. 3. FreeBSD partition. 4. The rest of the Linux stuff. 5.

I don't see this clearly mentioned in the handbook. Quoting the makeworld.html page of the handbook: As the superuser, you can execute # shutdown now from a running system, which will drop it to single user mode. Alternatively, reboot the system, and at the boot prompt, enter the -s flag. The system will then boot single user. At the shell prompt you should then run: # fsck -p # mount -u / # mount -a -t ufs # swapon -a" I understand this as: do the shutdown now, then all the fsck and mount stuff; or, reboot with the -s flag and then do all the fsck and mount stuff. If this isn't the case, then it should be more clearly outlined. -- David Kanter djkanter@nwu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 5 18: 7:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wat-border.sentex.ca (waterloo-hespler.sentex.ca [199.212.135.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0591B37B7A5 for ; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 18:07:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Received: from granite.sentex.net (granite-atm.sentex.ca [209.112.4.1]) by wat-border.sentex.ca (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA20782; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 21:06:59 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Received: from chimp (ospf-mdt.sentex.net [205.211.164.81]) by granite.sentex.net (8.8.8/8.6.9) with ESMTP id VAA11924; Wed, 5 Apr 2000 21:06:57 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <4.2.2.20000405210130.036af008@mail.sentex.net> X-Sender: mdtancsa@mail.sentex.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.2.2 Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 21:04:16 -0400 To: Jens Rehsack From: Mike Tancsa Subject: Re: connection problem: FreeBSD Computer does not respond Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <38EBD7DF.4307F55E@informatik.uni-halle.de> References: <38EA7F40.FE128093@informatik.uni-halle.de> <20000404172309.V20770@fw.wintelcom.net> <38eab248.7085097@mail.sentex.net> <4.2.2.20000405074454.0368cdf8@mail.sentex.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 02:18 AM 4/6/2000 +0200, Jens Rehsack wrote: >But since today morning I let the machine ping it's right neighbor(?). >It works uninterrupted. >But yesterday I tries to ping the machine if it doesn't send packets out >by itself and it does not response. > >To say it again: >1) If I boot the machine, it will not answer, but the NIC >gets/recognizes the packets. >2) If I send some data out (f.e. echo request, ns lookup), the machine >answers packets for ca. 3 hours. >3) Then it seems to be dead from world, but a look to the console shows: >it's alive. >4) GoTo 2 ':-) Well, my money would be something with the NIC.

FreeBSD should support an atapi cdrom. try hitting scroll lock then pageup a bit to see if it was detected, hit scroll lock again to exit the pager mode. if it wasn't detected you may have to try moving it to a different location on your IDE bus. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

It's firstly dependant on the program, then dependant on the operating system. Afaik windows 95/98 doesn't support multiple processors so if even if the application supports it you're still out of luck.

When I've encountered this problem (a while back, I admit) it was when the CD-ROM was the only device on the IDE channel *and* it was jumpered as the 'slave' device.

The only good reason not to have reverse mapping is in order to spam. If your ISP is too stupid to set up reverse mapping, you probably want to change anyway.

You should have somethink like acd0c. You get into trouble if the CDROM is a slave on the secondary controller. It can't be a slave if it is the only drive.

It's a technical term, not just "some stuff I know." The short answer is /etc/services, but you really ought to read a good book on how firewalls work before you try to put one together. Cheswick and Bellovin is superb. You might want to bone up on how the Internet Protocol works first, too: the Stevens books are my choice for that, although I think Cheswick and Bellovin might contain enough of a short-course to get by on.

When I reboot using 'shutdown -h now', and then boot back up, the machine won't connect to the network. If I simply use 'reboot' or 'fastboot' (fastboot is aliased to reboot, according to the man page) the network is detected with no problems. My guess is that I have a configuration problem that's only found when booting cold. Anyone have any idea what network files are accessed during a cold boot and not a reboot? Or am I on the wrong track altogether? I'd be happy to provide any other info that might be relevant.

To be able to write to that drive as a normal user, use: chmod 777 /dos This will allow ANYONE to write to /dos. Beware that this is a major security risk! What I recommend is that you make a group, and addusers to that group that you want to be able to have write access to /dos. Do do this, add this line to /etc/group: dosw:*:101:root,otheruser Add the users that you want able to write to /dos to that group. Then do: # chown root:dosw /dos # chmod 775 /dos To be more secure, and deny all read access to any other users, do this: # chmod 770 /dos This will probably be the best way to do it.

Here is what we are dealing with: Dell Optiplex, ATI Rage Pro, fresh install 4.0-RELEASE X runs with Mach64 server. Gnome. Running apache, sshd, ftp... that's it. I just installed it a week ago, no reboot since that. , works fine after Today we had power outage. Machine rebooted fine (as far as i can tell from remote), However /tmp/X0[-smth] is filled with stuff and netstat shows more than 100 open unix domain sockets. As a result no more sokcets can be assigned. (strange behavoir, it seems that I can get a couple of sockets, but not too many: I can ssh, can ftp, but not always. apache loads HTML, but not linked images etc). When trying local telnet 80 or ftp get error message about buffer being full. (sorry for approx. error messages, can't be more precise) I deletet /tmp/*, netstat still shows sockets. I reboot, same sh*t. I decided to try to get rid of X, removed xdm from /etc/ttys, then tried to kill xdm. kill -9 xdm -- machine crashes. Can't give any detail on how -- I was remote. I suspect that when I reboot it tomorrow the sockets will still be there. Please help!

More likely, the problem is that shutdown is not closing everything down properly. I have the problem that when a member of group operator uses shutdown, the machine just hangs there and never syncs the disks. If I eventually power cycle, I come up with, WARNING: / was not properly dismounted! I've never had any network related issues to this however. -- Crist J.

Victoria and Tasmania (even Tasmania!) have decided to move at the same time. To quote /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/australasia: # Victoria will following NSW. See: # # Vic to extend daylight saving # (1999-07-28). # From Alex Livingston (1999-10-04): # I heard on the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) radio news on the # (long) weekend that Tasmania, which usually goes its own way in this regard, # has decided to join with most of NSW, the ACT, and most of Victoria # (Australia) and start daylight saving on the last Sunday in August in 2000 # instead of the first Sunday in October. Elsewhere it shows that Broken Hill will be on SA time, and Lord Howe Island will be on NSW time. > I noticed that going onto DST and coming off just recently all > happened automagically in FreeBSD. But, I am wondering if the > zoneinfo file for Australian EST is set up to cope with the early > start in NSW (and ACT) this year? I suspect not. You guess wrong. The time zone files have been updated. At least in all coming versions of FreeBSD, as well as in 3.4 and 4.x, the transition will be on the correct date. > If there is a method of modifying the zoneinfo files myself, then I'll > be happy with that as a 'workaround' ;') If you're running an older version of FreeBSD, just get the lastest version of /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/australasia and do a 'make all install' in /usr/src/share/zoneinfo.

Don't assume that everyone's mail reader makes it easy to go back and look at your subject line to figure out what the heck you're talking about. Oh, and the recent ressurection of the way too cute references to "$subj" just has to stop. I'm not slamming you here, since you at least had the good sense to ask. If you want to maximize your chances of getting help, make it easy to help you.

What's the temperature on your CPU? Are you overclocking your CPU? Signal 11's refer to invalid system calls if I recall correctly, and I used to have this problem and it was my CPU (settings on the motherboard were too aggressive). It is possible that something in your BIOS or RAM could also be causing the sig 11's. It took me three days to diagnose my problem. I know the loss/flipping of bits going from RAM -> cache -> HDD or vice versa would cause sig 11's or sig 12's. Also depending on how much RAM you have, it could take longer to detect if it is a problem with the RAM. Pretty much the way to figure this out is by playing around with hardware and try duplicating the problem. if you can single out the piece of hardware which is either faulty or misconfigured, you'll be one step closer to OS Godliness.

Then, I added c:\bootsec.bsd="FreeBSD" as an item in my boot.ini. It starts out as "shr" and you have to unattrib it, edit it, and then re-attrib +s +h =r boot.ini. You leave the partition where W2K is booting from as your active and everything is OK!. In my case, FreeBSD in on my primary master, otherwise I would have had to make /boot/boot0 my bootsec.bsd.

This is not a direct answer to the question you asked. :-) Is it impossible for you to a) run ntpdate at more regular intervals or b) use ntpd, also in the base system? Presumably you're talking about a frequently unconnected host using automatic ppp? If so, you could run ntpdate out of ppp.linkup. Alternatively, you could run ntpd and set up ppp's dial and active filters so that ntpd's synchronization attempts do not cause a dial attempt nor keep an existing connection alive. Ciao, Sheldon.

You should be able to verify if an ftpd daemon is running and listening for clients, by looking at the output of netstat: % netstat -naf inet Active Internet connections (including servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state) tcp4 0 0 *.25 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.21 *.* LISTEN The second LISTEN line, the one listening on local port 21, is the ftpd daemon (or inetd if you use inetd to launch ftp servers) listening for incoming connections.

You can use vnconfig to `attach' a file to a vn device, as in: # vnconfig /dev/vn0c /tmp/myimage.iso # mount -t cd9660 /dev/vn0c /mnt You need to have `vn' compiled to your kernel. Ciao, Giorgos.

I'm glad this was made clear. But, it would be an entirely different and more useful post, if you had included the specific brands & models of modems you tested, and tried to check if the compatibility list of the freebsd home page has some errors. If you *do* find an error in the hardware-compatibility document of the freebsd site, or you come up with some more information for the PCI modem that caused your troubles, I'd be glad to know.

You can shorten or remove the delay by adding this line to /boot/loader.conf (creating the file if it does not exist): autoboot_delay="0" Even with no delay, you can still get the loader prompt if you're quick with your space bar. However, this can be quite annoying and you'd be well advised to set the delay to at least one second. Ciao, Sheldon.

I suspect that you powercycle the box when you shutdown -h now, while reboot and fastboot softcycle the box. When you boot from the dead (i.e. switch on the machine), does the machine "connect to the network"? By the way, "connect to the network" is a little vague. What error messages are you seeing in /var/log/messages? By the way, one thing you could try doing is this: 1) shutdown -h now 2) get the box to reboot, however you normally do that 3) log in and do dmesg >~/dmesg.broken 4) fastboot 5) wait for the box to come back up 6) log in and do dmesg >~/dmesg.working 6) diff -ud ~/dmesg.working ~/dmesg.broken Ciao, Sheldon.

This one is at Rusty Russel's website (he wrote IPCHAINS). Check down around the middle of this page for the section "Logging Packets". It will tell you everything you need to know about decoding those logs. http://www.rustcorp.com/linux/ipchains/HOWTO-4.html You probably are most interested in the IP address parts, though. This log entry says that your rule 'input' DENIED (dropped) the probe from 155.230.152.165. You can often find out exactly who that is by using tools such as 'whois' or 'nslookup', or if you want an easy web-based search, try: http://www.samspade.org/ This hit came in over your ppp0 link, the protocol was TCP (6). Other probes might use 17 (UDP) or 1 (ICMP). The hit came to your port 635. Check /etc/services, generally: grep 635 /etc/services returned no match, so check IANA for further information: rlzdbase 635/tcp RLZ DBase rlzdbase 635/udp RLZ DBase Find port numbers at: http://www.iana.org/numbers.html The probe came from the address 155.230.152.165, from his port 24134. His port doesn't matter, as it's just assigned as needed and really has no correlation to what he's trying to do. If you're interested, protocol numbers are available at IANA as well. The unimportant entries L, S, I, F and T are explained on Rusty's website, noted above at rustcorp.

Tell me one thing, which you can't do > with FreeBSD Apparently, you can't get an unbiased evaluation. I've wiped this response and started over 5 times. I'm finding it hard to phrase things without coming across as aggressive. I believe the point that is trying to be made here is that it is generally considered unproductive to make very generalistic claims about Windows *or* FreeBSD (or any other operating system for that matter). A better approach would be to cite specific issues with the intent of allowing the reader to make up their own mind about the suitability of one system over the other. For example, Windows is frequently cited as being less stable than FreeBSD, and when a program does crash, it often takes the entire system down with it. FreeBSD has its issues as well, but it is designed to prevent any one program from taking down the entire system. This should be considered if you anticipate using your machine in a production environment. On the other hand, Windows has a tremendous advantage in its common interface. If you're familiar with one Windows program, you'll find other programs similar enough in basic operation as to be intuitive. FreeBSD, as well as most of the other UNIX-like systems, has a fairly steep learning curve, or at least a significant "forgetting curve", for those coming from the Windows environment. The last image we want to portray to someone who is investigating FreeBSD as a primary or secondary operating system is that of a bunch of "religious zealots" who decry anything Microsoft simply for the sake of its origin. It is also important to note that the person who posted the original message had asked how to install both operating systems. The initial response to that question was, essentially, "don't", which does not answer the question at all. If the poster was comfortable with Windows and was simply looking at FreeBSD out of curiosity, your response probably encouraged him/her very strongly to look elsewhere to satisfy their curiosities. Not an admirable performance by any measure. I'll get back down off my soapbox now. Sorry, y'all. Wont do it again. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 6 6:25:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail02.syd.optusnet.com.au (mail02.syd.optusnet.com.au [203.2.75.105]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B636637BEE1 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 06:25:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from diskiller@borg-cube.com) Received: from bender (adlax2-058.dialup.optusnet.com.au [198.142.52.58]) by mail02.syd.optusnet.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA19023 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 21:45:59 +1000 Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 21:16:09 +0930 (CST) From: Martin Minkus X-Sender: diskiller@bender.on.diskiller.net To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: SB Live 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 Does anyone out there know whats happening with SB Live! support in FreeBSD ?

System: Intel Celeron 300A, 64MB core, 17GB Maxtor EIDE disk with 4 partitions: 1:NextStep 2GB, 2: win98 4.5GB, 3:FreeBSD 3.5GB, 4: win98 extended 8GB DPT PM2144UW SCSI card controlling a Seagate Barracuda, Jaz 1GB and Plextor 8x burner Echo Gina AD/DA audio card Terrasound PCI 64 audio/wavetable card (not recommended... :-() ATAPI CD-R PS/2 keyboard Serial mouse (Com1/serial A) ZyXEL Elite 2864i on Com2 (serial B) OS: FreeBSD 4.0-Release (Installed 3.3 from CD, downloaded the floppies for 4.0 and did an FTP upgrade - no errors reported). KDE 1.2. Linux emulation enabled, otherwise a basic novice install with X11 and some developer stuff. Partition layout: in the BSD slice I've set up / (150MB); /var (300MB); swap; /home (1GB); /usr (1GB) and /usr/local (1.2GB). The system has booted and been fine since I installed it a few weeks ago. History/symptoms: I experienced that my extended partition and data (last partition on 17GB EIDE drive) which was set up as a Win98 data drive (I do hard disk recording) "diassapearred" about the same time I installed FreeBSD. Although I don't want to say BSD did anything to my disk, I cannot imagine I knowingly deleting a partition with several hours of recordings for a new project. Moral: backup! I ran Powerquests "Lost & Found" to recover the data, and in order to access the partition had to use (win98) fdisk to create a new extended partition where the old one had been. I didn't format it. Ran L&F, got some of my takes recovered and copied over to a different disk. Restarted the PC into FreeBSD and got loads of errors from fsck when it accessed my /home partition. Ran fsck -y on it (I haven't had time to get much data there, so it was no problem if I lost a few files). Went ok, rebooted, everything seemed ok, no data loss. A week later (last night) I figured I wasn't going to get any more files recovered so I formatted the logical win98 partition from Win98, giving me about 8GB of starage area. Worked a bit and made some new recordings, rebooted to FreeBSD to get my mail and was dumped (again) into a shell because of fsck failures. This time not only my /home partition but also /usr and /usr/local. / seems ok. did a manual fsck of /home and got it clean, but reeboot -n doesn't seem to do what it used to do on other (older) unices - reboot without syncing dirty fs cache data back to the disk. I figured I'd instead fsck all the dirty partitions first and get back to the reboot problem afterwards. When checking /home fsck asked to use alternate superblocks as the first didn't match with the others. This went well (seemingly). However, on /usr and /usr/local fsck cannot find any superblocks at all! I don't know enough about the BSD fs to know where all the alternate superblock adresses are, and they might not be there at all if fsck can't find them. Before I gave up for the evening I ran fdisk from the unix shell to get info on the partitions, it listed something like this (values from my head, not real): part 1: Nextstep, 1992 GB start cyl: 0 size: 84365735 end cyl: 456 part 2: FAT32, 4535 GB start cyl: 457 size:18438347 end cyl: 938 part 3: FreeBSD, 3522 GB start cyl: 939 size: 14735881 end cyl: 1234 part 4: FAT32, 8001 GB start cyl: 0 size: 2565735876 end cyl: Is it normal that an extended/logical partition begins at cyl 0??? I don't recall where the value was for the end cylender, or if one was given. I noticed as well that the total size added up to 18.8GB, while I have a 17.2GB drive... I can boot Win98 and NextStep, unfortunately neither are set up for internet (actually I can browse from Win98 and both browse and receive e-mail (but not send) from Next). I had actually planned on using FreeBSD for most of my non audio computing and had it set up for full internet support. So I can receive answers to this, but will have problems sending anything back... What are my options at this time? Mount /home single user, mount the jaz, make a backup (now I do have lots of files there!) and reinstall everything? Run Partition Magic and adjust partition sizes? I'm assuming (perhaps wrongly) that somehow Win98 format has written into the BSD partition, thus corrupting it. Or maybe my (reasonably new) disk has big surface errors? What else might be causing this? When I last used FreeBSD and shutdown (CTL-ALT-DELETE) everything shut down smoothly, no errors, no problems. All I've done in between is install (and shortly after remove) BeOS 5 (on the Win98 primary partition) and format the extended/logical Win98 partition. Any advice is more than welcome.

I did the main installation last night. I have referred to the FreeBSD handbook and tried to follow along with chapter 14. But, I seem to be have a few set backs. Here goes: Chapter 14.1.3 deals with checking tun devices. it says to # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV tun0 if just the one tunnel is needed and then gives examples of how to make more than one tunnel. then it says to # ifconfig tun0 says that you check that to confirm that the kernel is configured correctly. then it says it should give the following response tun0: flags=8050 mtu 1500 the response I get after doing # ifconfig tun0 is ifconfig.interface tun0 does not exist Why is it telling me this? My kernel is the GENERIC kernel for now and it says that it should be configured properly to handle tun0. Am I doing something wrong? Or can I go ahead and proceed. I'd appreciate any help.

The previous afternoon I cvsuped the 4.0-STABLE sources. Last night I attempted to go from 3.4-STABLE (previous cvsup/makeworld approx mid Jan) to 4.0-STABLE. I used the /usr/src/UPDATING file in addition to my normal documentation/procedures. All seemed to go well, until the point came to reboot into single user mode. At this point I ran into problems. My rookieness will show shortly. I seem to remember (although I'm a FreeBSD newbie) that the instructions "enter -s at the boot prompt" is no longer the way to enter single user mode, correct? At any rate, I let the kernel boot as normal (my intention, since I couldn't remember exactly how to get into single user mode, was to boot as normal, then do a 'shutdown now'). I saw "4.0-STABLE" flash by the screen and was temporarily elated. Then I got this error messages: Mounting root from ufs:wd0s1a wd0: bad sector table not supported wd0s1: bad sector table not supported Root mount failed: 22 Mounting root from ufs:wd0a wd0: bad sector table not supported wd0s1: bad sector table not supported Root mount failed: 22 What exactly does this mean? The hard drive appeared perfectly well under 3.0-3.4. Some things I tried to solve the problem: 1. Re-read all docs, make sure I did everything in order, correct, etc. 2. I saw where wd was going to be replaced by ad, so when I had previously build my devices with MAKEDEV it did it for both wd and ad. Is building both ok? Is order important? Forgive me this has been answered previously, I did make an attempt to search the archives, etc., but am in over my head.

I agree with your comments. I have yet to meet an OS that I can't find fault with and the reverse is also true, i.e, I have yet to meet an OS that doesn't have positive points. The real challenge is to recognize when you are hitting a fault and have a choice. You can then run the project in a positive environment and not waste time fitting it in to a system where it is not effective. If you only run one OS, Murphy will provide many opportunities for you to demonstrate a clueless moment :). Running too many will dilute your skills and let Murphy pop up again. Where the curves cross is based on personal skills such as exposure and a photographic memory. My last FreeBSD 3.4-S problem dealt with a 20GB HD. I couldn't mix 3.4 and Windows 2000/NT4/98. I couldn't add a 3rd partition after the FreeBSD 3.4 slice without the BIOS declaring I had an illegal partition. I installed 4.0 in one large 13GB slice, which was compatible with W2K and the BIOS, but I couldn't build Code Crusader. I have Code Crusader building now and I am back to an improved situation over 3.4.

IIRC, that's one of the things 'maxusers' controls, but double-check the docs and param.c before you believe me on that. -- Crist J.

Try doing a "make release" in /usr/src/release. Note that this takes quite a while, and needs a LOT more disk space than a "make world" does. At the end you have some directory like /foo/bar/R/cdrom/disc{1,2} (amongst other things) which you can make an ISO filesystem from. disc2 is probably what you want. *thinks* It would probably be easier, thinking about it, to just do a normal buildworld, and then "make DESTDIR=/foo/bar installworld" and then create an ISO image of the whole /foo/bar tree. That way you don't risk forgetting some important bits. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 6 9:18:33 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3339837B969 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 09:18:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #1) id 12dEn3-0006AP-00; Thu, 06 Apr 2000 17:05:53 +0100 Received: (from ben) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12dEn3-0003mt-00; Thu, 06 Apr 2000 17:05:53 +0100 Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 17:05:53 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: jason wray Cc: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: Internet Connection Message-ID: <20000406170553.H39831@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <20000406135724.20673.qmail@web3301.mail.yahoo.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: <20000406135724.20673.qmail@web3301.mail.yahoo.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG jason wray wrote: > the response I get after doing > # ifconfig tun0 > is > ifconfig.interface tun0 does not exist > Why is it telling me this?

Have you built and installed a new kernel? You may need to. I'm not sure how you will now, though, if none of your binaries are working.

I'm not using Windows in any way, and I'm not having any difficulties with my BSD box, but I also understand (or at least, try to understand) that someone might need to run Windows for one reason or another.

The code for the EXT2 filesystem is rather old and not so stable any more, due to its not being used much by developers.

It's small and handy, nothing to set up, just give the command and you're done. There are many time servers to choose from, and if all you want is to set your time once a day, then you can use a single-poll utility like rdate. If the server you're polling gets accurate time (don't they all get their time from the US Atomic clock in Colorado?), then you'll have a reasonably correct time. If you *really* need accuracy, precision in timekeeping, then you would need to get one of the utilites that poll multiple servers. Then it really becomes an art - if you're polling multiple time servers, you've got to take into consideration the distance they are away, how long it takes the 'time' to get to you, then you've got to work some sort of average-magic over the data you get from the various time servers, and you've got your own clock-drift to think of too. Figure in TTL values, thrown in some Borax and you've got what... a reasonably correct time. :) So anyway, to answer your question, no I can't tell you precisely how many milliseconds rdate would vary from xnptd or another one. It depends on how accurate you *need* to be. I'm always late anyway, so what do I care about another 1.5 thousandths of a second? See the manpage for ntpq, xntpd, xntpdc. Dennis Ferguson, the writer of xntpd, writes: BUGS Xntpd has gotten rather fat. While not huge, it has gotten larger than might be desireable for an elevated-priority daemon running on a workstation, particularly since many of the fancy features which consume the space were designed more with a busy primary server, rather than a high stratum workstation, in mind.

You can add the command 'boot' to the end of your /boot/loader.rc file. Note, though, that if you do this, you won't be able to boot an old kernel, or boot into single user mode unless you boot off of a floppy. Thus, I reccommend that you just set the autoboot_delay variable to 1 or 2 seconds as Sheldon Hearn recommended. > Thanks -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 6 10:42:23 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from server.baldwin.cx (jobaldwi.campus.vt.edu [198.82.67.146]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DF39137BFE1 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 10:42:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Received: from john.baldwin.cx (john [10.0.0.2]) by server.baldwin.cx (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id NAA04127; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 13:41:34 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Message-Id: <200004061741.NAA04127@server.baldwin.cx> X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 13:41:34 -0400 (EDT) From: John Baldwin To: Jim Morrisby Subject: RE: FreeBSD loader problems (dual/multi boot) Cc: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 06-Apr-00 Jim Morrisby wrote: > Hi there > > Please mail me back at: jim@saca.net as I am not currently subscribed to > this list. > > I am experiencing problems with the loader in FreeBSD, it worked great until > I installed win2k and win98 on the machine - as these > kinda redo the MBR.

The SMP you get with FreeBSD would be multiple processors in a single system, unless you can break down your raytracing application into multiple processes to act on different threads at the same time you won't see any improvement. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

I put all the source into /usr/ftp/FreeBSD/3.4-STABLE. The installation client can connect to the server, but can't reach the directory ~/FreeBSD/3.4-STABLE. The client can reach the directory of ~/FreeBSD and started to install. In these scenario, I can't put the 3.3-release into ~/FreeBSD/3.3-RELEASE. The installation client can't distinguish the source belongs to which one. I have changed the home directory of anonymous ftp to /usr/ftp and changed the "ownership and group" of 3.4-STABLE to "root and operator". It's the same result. Can anyone give me a suggestion? Thanks.

One further clue: subdirectories didn't seem to have the problem either. The strange output seemed to be names of directories and files which I assume was create by tar when it went about trying to untar/extract the info in the archive. These strange names make removing the files and directories difficult. I used ls -ibF to find the i-node and to find out which were files and which were directories. Then I removed them using: find . -inum -exec rm {} \; -- for files, and find . -inum -exec rm -R {} \; -- for directories Note rmdir did not work because it claimed that the directories were not empty. rm -R "prunes the tree," removing the directory and everything under it.

Actually, EXT2FS works fine under 4.0 as well. The problem is you need to enable sparse superblocks on the partitions you want to mount, otherwise BSD has a kiniption fit trying to mount it. I had similar problems under 3.x as described and the above was the fix I used, works fine under 3.x and 4.0 Hope that helps.

I'm not 100% sure about this next bit as I've only ever read about it on the mailing lists, never had to do it for real. To allow you to boot, even single-user, you'll need to enter: set rootdev=/dev/ad0s1a At one of the 2 prompts described above. The problem is I can't remember which one. Try interrupting the boot at both points, type ``?'' and see which one shows ``set rootdev'' as an option. Once it's up, edit /etc/fstab.

I'm almost certain what the problem is, so this message is for the archives and any luckless soul who may have the same problem :-). In summary: my 3.3 box was routinely hanging (every 1-2wks) for no apparant reason. You could connect to ports, but nothing would happen. The console would let you switch screens, but not type anything. The only solution was to reboot. Well, the problem ended up being NFS and some (mis)interaction with uw-imapd, and I only finally figured this out by going off a hunch. I've been running uw-imapd with the INBOX "snarfing" feature--basically this automatically moves mail for users from /var/mail/user to ~user/INBOX. Well, my users' home directories are NFS mounted off a NetApp... (Yes, I know the cardinal rule of NFS is never do mail over it, but I figured this was mostly for locking problems, and I figured since all mail access comes only from this one machine, file locking shouldn't be a problem). Also I really had no choice since I'm pretty much locked into uw-imapd these days, and there is no way to get uw-imapd to do its snarfing thing (which I need for another (non-freebsd) problem) to anywhere but the user's home directory. Out of ideas, I finally tried hacking imapd (by wrapping getpwnam()) to have it snarf into a local directory instead of NFS. Et voila, I've been up a month with no hangs! :-) I hear there are a ton of NFS fixes in 4.x which might fix this hanging problem, but I'll probably stick with my current solution anyway. I hope this might be helpful to anyone out there :-). Thanks to everyone who responded to my initial post! Steve > Hi :-), > > I'm using a FreeBSD 3.3 box at work as a mail/web/login server.

This isn't really true. It is entirely based on how smart your compiler is. The compilers I used to use on the Cray at work were really smart this way. They were also really slow. What it would do is send something like each loop of your typical for-loop to a different cpu. In the case of a typical YM/P, you had 16 cpu's and would chunk through the loop in increments of 16. The thing was each loop had to be independant of the others. That is where the smarts were required. A 486 using Lehey or Ryan McFarland Fortran could compile a program faster on a 486, which didn't do SMP. Shell commands such as pipes were also lucky recipients of the benefits of SMP. Each piped command would be running on a different cpu if a different cpu was available. This was multi-processing at the command line. A Cray class on performance spent the first morning introducing you to your muli-processing hardware.

It just so happens that the machine that everything else is syncronizing with just happens to sync to an outside source, but as long as you set up one machine to consider its own clock a low precision, but nonetheless authoritative source, everything will sync up with that machine.

Configure a machine with an /etc/ntpd.conf like this: # Pick an ntp server from http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.htm server 1.2.3.4 # The next 2 lines tell ntpd to use the PC's local clock as a time # source while offline. server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 # broadcast NTP packets to the local network broadcast 2.3.4.255 driftfile /etc/ntp.drift This will be your primary time source, and will broadcast time packets onto your local network every few minutes. You can configure the rest of the machines to just be broadcast clients ( set xntpd_flags="-b" in /etc/rc.conf ), and they'll sync to the primary server. Just make sure your primary server dials out for a couple hours every once in a while, so it can sync up with a true time source. -- 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 Thu Apr 6 15:32:37 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (news-ma.rhein-neckar.de [193.197.90.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C26B837C1A9 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 15:32:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: from bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (uucp@localhost) by news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with bsmtp id AAA01760 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 7 Apr 2000 00:32:21 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id XAA48797 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 23:27:16 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: Serial->serial connection (sio0 -> sio1) Date: 6 Apr 2000 23:27:16 +0200 Message-ID: <8civfk$1fki$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> References: <38E6E5EA.22A1038F@gorean.org> <8c7bgc$umu$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> <38E7E971.162B7763@gorean.org> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Doug Barton wrote: > > > There is a weird problem with the serial code in ttys. > > > You have to boot with a comconsole before the tty will appear. > > > > Since when?

Uh, don't do that. > Maybe ttydX is more sensitive about handshaking / carrier detect or something? Yes, that's the point for modem use. Typically, when you open ttydX the open() call blocks until DCD is on. cuaX doesn't block. This also allows to dial in and out over the same port. getty(8) opens the tty and blocks until a call comes in. Meanwhile you can still open the corresponding cua device and dial out. If setting CLOCAL in the getty configuration doesn't stop it from blocking you can still wire DCD to active. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 6 15:33: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (news-ma.rhein-neckar.de [193.197.90.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8C12537B515 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 15:32:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: from bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (uucp@localhost) by news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with bsmtp id AAA01806 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 7 Apr 2000 00:32:58 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id XAA49510 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 23:46:21 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: Comparing Floats in a /bin/sh Script Date: 6 Apr 2000 23:46:20 +0200 Message-ID: <8cj0jc$1gar$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> References: <20000406120827.A4198@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Crist J.

Actually, that's worse. There is not shell built-in operator to handle floating point numbers.

It has to do with the modelines you have available at the beginning of your XF86Config. Later on in that file where it has the set for default depth, under that depth are your available resolutions.

If you can access the box locally, you can log on as root and add yourself to the wheel group in /etc/groups, or, better yet, install SSH and enable root logins in /usr/local/etc/sshd.conf if you have a client that supports ssh at work. However, I think you already know the above, and you are searching for some way to access your box from work NOW, without going home and accessing the box from there. Unless you have given yourself permission to modify /etc/group, or if there is another login user who is a member of the wheel group, or you have already installed SSH with root logins enabled, you are SOL. There are no known root exploits that I can think of that would help your situation (and I would hope they would be closed pretty fast :-) So, you'll either have to go home (home = location of system) and make the change yourself, or phone someone with physical access to the system (spouse?) and step them through the process, from the root login to the /etc/group modification. (And, change your root password yourself when they're done). -- Ryan Thompson Systems Administrator, Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 6 16:26:46 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hotmail.com (f235.law4.hotmail.com [216.33.149.235]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 9A11137B664 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 16:26:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nicblais@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 75849 invoked by uid 0); 6 Apr 2000 23:26:41 -0000 Message-ID: <20000406232641.75848.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 206.172.200.209 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Thu, 06 Apr 2000 16:26:41 PDT X-Originating-IP: [206.172.200.209] From: "Nicolas Blais" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: 1024 Cylinder prob Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 19:26:41 EDT Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi!

I installed 4.0 fresh using the entire disk but not using the "dangerously dedicated" option. I now wish I had.

Wilkinson" Subject: Making a package from a port Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I built the python1.5.2 port with one change from the configuration that it comes with: I changed WITH_TK? = yes to WITH_TK? = no. The port built ok, and none of the tests failed (although some were skipped, as expected). The next step is to copy this working python to about a dozen other machines in the same lab. It seemed to me that the right way to do that would be to make a package of the newly built port. So, thinking that I was following the instructions on FreeBSD.org's webpage, I typed, "make package" in /usr/ports/lang/python. It worked for a few seconds, and then quit because of an error. I'm sorry, I didn't write down the message exactly, but the jist of it was that tar couldn't find a file named "_tk. That makes it seem to me as if it's trying to make a package of the standard port *with* tk rather than my modified one. I suspect that I might get it to work if I edited the PLIST file by hand, but I'm hoping that there's a more automated (and therefore probably more accurate) way to get what I want. Any chance?

The installation The last time I did this, it took a little fiddling around to figure out what path the installation was expecting. What I ended up doing was turning on complete debugging on the ftp server end, so I would see things like Apr 6 18:11:06 vinyl ftpd[94368]: command: CWD public_html in syslog. I then just matched the path to what the installation was expecting. Also, if you are doing a fresh install, consider the 4.x branch. It is generally as stable as the 3.x branch and has a few more nice features in it. Some specific types of older hardware seem to cause a few people problems, but other than that, go for 4.x. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers could setup a national IP network."

My box has been up for (only) 30 days, and in that time, I've used X successfully dozens of times - including last night and this morning. This afternoon when I tried to start X up, I get the error Cannot open mouse (Device not configured). The only information I could find in the archives was regarding users who never even had the mouse working to start. The problem is that this mouse WAS working just 10 hours ago - and now it's not. I've checked the cabling, and all seems well. Any ideas short of rebooting? The mouse is a Logitech Trackman Marble (ps/2) running into an OmniCube 4-port KVM, and then into the FreeBSD (3.4-Stable) box. This configuration has given me no other troubles for the past 8 months that it's been running like this.

The "MERGER" which is being talked about below is
a merger of BSDI and Walnut Creek CDROM?

Thanks.

Yes, the IP address does not have a DNS PTR record for it.  If its just a
192.168.x.x address (i.e. from the RFC 1918 space), you can add an entry
for it in the /etc/hosts file, and then change the order of /etc/hosts.conf
or add something like 

zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "db.192.168.1";
};

in /etc/named.conf

and db.192.168.1 has something like

@ IN SOA my.example.com. me.example.com. (
        200004060               ;       serial

You can install the gtk rpm from the redhat FTP site using the methods
employed in the emulators/linux_base port.  I did so and got it run reliably
(for a few hours today at least) on 4.0-STABLE.  Java didn't seem to work
for me though.

You can make the real backspace, work as a backspare in all the
applications started within an xterm easily :)

Just add to your X resources file [this is called ~/.Xresources in my
setup] the following line:

	% grep backspace ~/.Xresources
	XTerm*backspacekey: ^H

then make sure that your ~/.xinitrc script calls xrdb -merge on the
resources file:

	% grep xrdb ~/.xinitrc
	xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

Oh, you don't have to restart X to load the ~/.Xresources file.  Just
run the xrdb command from and xterm.  The xterms loaded after that will
read the new resources.

No. I don't think. If you have some courage, you can write a small dos
or
linux or bsd basing program, which moves your partition a few cylinders 
ago (right word?).
Don't forget to modify the MBR!
If Your Windows partition is to big, use fips before to shrink it.
Inside a FAT partition, all sectors are addressed relative to the start
(LBA),
so it makes no difference for the system were the partition starts.

the algorithm should be like

  int i;
  unsigned n = 100MB;

  for( i = last sector; i >= 0; i-- )
    hd_sector[i+n] = hd_sector[i];


> Thanks anyway.

Security through obscurity won't save you much.  Oh, and disabling
telnet altogether is usually a good idea, if you hate it that others
might know what you're running by using it.  Use ssh instead :)

I have a FreeBSD 4.0 system on a Maxtor 20GB drive. The problem is
that the / partition has to be before cylinder 1024. That works out to
be ~8.4GB. You can divide the disk up how ever you want as long as /
comes before 1024. I have a 2GB Fat 16, 13GB ffs, and a 5GB extended
partition with the rest of my windows stuff in it.

I don't like systems on my "c" drive. I also use the W2K ntldr and it
doesn't matter with it.

Having just come back from Networld in LA, I can say the Apple people are very
technically competent.

They have compiled Darwin under FreeBSD on an Intel machine, and it worked.

They also told me you can download and compile it yourself, something I haven't
verified, but will be checking out!

Thanks, but it still halps to know these things. Not a "security through
obscurity" issue. Just want to know how to do it. BTW, I AM running ssh, but
that doesn't mean I don't want to know how to turn off the annoying banners.
Also, just so you can feel better an night, I am kicking people off the
system with tcp wrappers when they try to telnet. Easier to know who is
doing what, ya' see....

Definitely not a stupid question.  But, alas, I do not have, nor have I had 
in the past year, had the mouse daemon running (I don't bother using the 
mouse in term windows).

I replied two days ago when I thought I had success, but now I have the same
problem again.

But, today I can't get past perl again.  I've tried just about every
combination of 'make', 'make clean', 'make all', 'make buildworld' in each
directory but the output from make is the same.  The offending lines of
output are:

---cut-here---
===> gnu/usr.bin/perl
===> gnu/usr.bin/perl/libperl
===> gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl

find: build: No such file or directory
find: build: No such file or directory
mkdir: lib/auto: File exists
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1
---cut-here---

I have tried a fresh copy of the source again and set the ownership to
'root:wheel' but don't seem to be able to make any sense of this.

The 'make' in the /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl dir does populate the
directory with the perl source, but can't get past the 'mkdir lib/auto' bit.

/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl/lib/auto is a real directory containing real
files (not symlinks like the rest of the perl source) and permissions all
look fine.

*still somewhat puzzled*

Am I the only person having problems with 'make buildworld' in 3-STABLE?
Has anyone had success?

Ta,

See my other posting to this list. I ran xntpd for years on a dialup 
connection. Connected an hour or two or three per day. Xntpd doesn't 
seem to have any problems resuming when the connection resumes.

Xntpd *does* spit a message into syslogd whenever it first loses its 
connections.

Observed xntpd disappeared with FreeBSD 4.0 and now we have ntpd. Seems 
to work exactly the same. I didn't change anything.

One "gotcha" is that xntpd didn't like to be started unless it had 
a nework connection. So don't put it in an rc startup file. I start 
ntpd now by hand first time I think of it when connected after a reboot.

The other "gotcha" is that you don't want [x]ntpd keeping your dialup 
ppp link active. I manually invoke pppd and kill it. There are 
filtering rules for pppd and ppp so auto-dial will not be triggered by 
ntp.

[X]ntpd will calculate your system clock drift and apply pre-emptive
adjustments to keep it tuned. Looks like ntpd has been adjusting my
clock back 1 second about once per day when its connected. Its only had
4 days since I changed over from xntpd and the driftfile value may have
changed units.

So? As long as you filter the ntp port(s) so your auto-dial ppp 
connection isn't activated then ntpd (and xntpd previously) works fine. 
When the connection resumes, the daemon syncs. Meanwhile it works on 
calibrating your system clock and applies this calibration whenever the 
daemon is running, connected or not.

Put something like this in your ntp.conf file:

# Write clock drift parameters to a file.  This will allow your system
# clock to quickly sychronize to the true time on restart.
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift

I'm a newbie to the cvsup system, but I thought I have this working
fairly well.

I'm currently running 3.2 from off a CD, so I got the stable tree and
the crypto from a
server using the standard files off the local disk at
/usr/share/examples/cvsup ?  At least, that's
from http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html pointer / link.  All
i did was change the
name of the server to cvsup3 ...

Everything seemed to work great, but I've been pulling out my hair.
Whenever I do make buildworld
or make world, I get this:


install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444 /usr/src/gnu/lib/libdialog/dialog.h
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/include
cd /usr/src/gnu/lib/libgmp;
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin/make beforeinstall
install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444
/usr/src/gnu/lib/libgmp/../../../contrib/libgmp/gmp.h
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/include
cd /usr/src/secure/lib/libdes;  /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin/make
beforeinstall
cd: can't cd to /usr/src/secure/lib/libdes
*** Error code 2

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1


Where do I go from here?  Any thoughts on what's wrong?  I could just go
get the libdes directory from
the stable ftp server, but hey I want cvsup to work right....so, what
did I do wrong?

Not my decision. They just give it to me and say make it work. I'd have it

I beleive /etc/gettytab is what you are looking for. If you add a \f to 
the front of the "im" series in the default entry then the screen will 
do a form feed.

default:\
        :cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:
                                ^ insert \f before \r\n

Can someone please help me? I have talked to people running 4.0-stable

You need to include:
device miibus
device ppbus

"device dc0" requires miibus, and "device ppc0" requires ppbus.
Then run config again and make depend. It ought to work now.

ok, so i've already put my 2 cents in about the awe64. if it helps your
decision any, i just got sb live platinum working, using the pcm and sbc
drivers in 5.0. 4.0 uses the same drivers. if you run 3.x, keep
searching for other cards.

Hello -

I run FreeBSD 3.2-release, and I also have fetchmail v5.0 installed.
Fetchmail hangs for a while and is unable to retrieve any further messages
if Sendmail issues (roughly) the follwing output (while retrieving mail
via POP3):

Sendmail: reject: 501 - Sender domain must exist

I understand that this is most likely an anti-spam feature.  The problem
is that the offending message is not deleted from my mail server
after the error is given... thus I can't view any messages which occur
after it.  This problem is repeated in subsequent fetchmail attempts.

Is there a way to keep the anti-spam features enabled while  overcoming
this problem?  Is it in fact an anti-spam issue, or am I missing
something else?

I have read the relevant man pages, without success.  Please let me know
if more details are needed.

Once again, thanks in advance for your consideration.

Hello,

Thank you for the advice.  I downloaded the new bootdisks and fixit disk, 
and was able to recover the system using this method.  One more for the 
memory banks.  One thing that got me for a short while, was that the disk 
systems need to be fscked prior to mounting, or else they will fail to mount.

Cheers!
Jon

In Windows 2000, one can set the affinity of certain programs to different
processors in an SMP system; which is not possible with a vanilla FreeBSD.

I just installed the package without any modifications.  It installs a
shell script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, which in turn runs safe_mysqld.

I should have mentioned that I use FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE, and mysql
3.22.22,

Here are my files.  The comment starting with '###' is where the problem
occurs.

I've looked and looked but cannot find how to modify
the periodic accounting/archiving jobs that run 
nightly, weekly, monthly.  For example I get
a daily,weekly,monthly email and /var/log is
cleaned up every day.  

How's this getting done?

Howdy!

I'm new to the FreeBSD world and was told by people on IRC that this would
be the best place to post this question.

I am running FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE and trying to run Natd.  I have two NICs
installed, one going to a HUB and one going to my cable modem.

Basically, I believe I have everything configured properly and have double
checked it against the Natd man page.  I have asked a dozen people online
and no one can think of the cause.  This is my final try, so please reply
back if you have any insight.  

When I plug my cable modem into my NIC, the system immediately crashes.  

This is a brief part of the error, then it reboots 15 seconds afterwards.
So I'm not able to get *everything*:

Fatal trap 12: Page fault while in kernel mode
Fault virtual address: 0x8
Trap number: 12
Panic: Page fault
Fault code: Supervisor read, page not present

Then it restarts.  Again, this will only happen after I plug the cable
modem in.  If the cable modem is already plugged in, it will get the same
errors right after the system boots up.  So there is no way around this,
unless the cable modem is not plugged into the NIC.

I have put my various system files/configs on a web site so that you may
all view them.  I hope this covers about everything, but please let me know
if you need any other info:

* Kernel config: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/FREEBSD

* dmesg before crash: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/dmesg

* ps aux before crash: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/psaux

* Uname -a output: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/uname

* /etc/rc.conf: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/rc.conf

* /etc/rc.firewall: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/rc.firewall

* /etc/inetd.conf: http://www.execpc.com/~eharris/inetd.conf

If anyone would like an account on the system, just email me and I will
give you an account on my gateway, which will enable you to access the
FreeBSD machine.  

Thanks for taking the time to read this.  I eagerly await any replies.


Regards,

Eric Harris

Have you tried plugging in the cable modem to the other ethernet card?

(make sure to change /etc/rc.conf to reflect the settings)
(and if that works, make sure that you update /etc/rc.firewall for the
divert line too)

Looking at your rc.firewall, you need to change:
/sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via rl0

to

/sbin/ipfw add 10 divert natd all from any to any via rl0

And change the device name if the above solution worked.

Good Day Everyone,

I am currently using FreeBSD release 3.4. I am attempting to create some
new boot floppy images but the command structure is giving me some
grief. 

I enter

dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/rfd0

and I get the response...

dd: /dev/rfd0: Device not configured 

How do I configure this floppy device so that it will work?

Sincerely

Brent Rector

This is what I use, and it runs my 1370 just fine. Look at the boot
messages; was it detected? Possibly it is working, but the volume is
too low. Try running '/usr/sbin/mixer vol 50 pcm 50 cd 50' and
seeing whether you can hear it now. Adjust the numbers to your
liking and stick the proper combination into /etc/rc.local so it
will run on boot-up.

Hi all,

Just wondering what happened to the PAO functionality?

My megahertz pccard modem freezes my machine.  I noticed that there is a
pccard option in NEWCARD, but in pccard.conf there's no mention of my
megahertz cellular modem.  It worked just fine in 3.4+PAO.  Did something
change?  Thanks...

  In all of your documentaion, you refer to the turbo speed Lucent
cards as 6 Mbps.  The documentation from Lucent and everywhere else
I have seen lists them as 1/2/5.5/11 Mbps.  Nowhere do they mention
6 Mbps.  Is this a speed limitation of your driver, that the 11 Mb mode
only runs 6?

p.s. I am stll working on the NetBSD/FreeBSD decision for a Compaq

just install both.

I'm having problems compiling the kernel whenever i enable that option in
the config.  Says that code is missed.  What would be the cause of that?

If you press the enter key, you'll get a shell prompt.  Then if you run

	fsck /dev/rwd0s1e

the fsck program (which is what gave you the error message) will give you
a chance to decide what changes should be made so the filesystem can be
used.  While you're in single-user mode, you may as well cat /etc/fstab
and run fsck on any other filesystems.  Just be sure to add the "r" (if
the fstab has a /dev/wd0s1f, do "fsck /dev/rwd0s1f").

Data is likely to be lost, so your backups (if you have any) may
come in handy.

The real problem is likely that the computer crashed or lost power.  If it
lost power, you might look into a UPS or just tell the people who have
access to it not to suddenly power it off (I have no remote users, so I
just press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to leave from X, then Ctrl+Alt+Delete to shut
down).  If you can't avoid the problem, you should probably stop using
soft updates, if you're using them now.  I've gotten more corruption when
they're enabled before a crash.

the 'turbo' cards are often refered to in lucent literature as having
~10 mbps capability (mostly from the marketing guys) but i've never
seen them go above 6 mbps or so in real life. however, these cards are
not to be confused with the newer 11 mbps, which actually live up to 
their speed claims. as far as i know, the 'turbo' cards have been 
discontinued and they are only selling the 11 mb ones, though i don't
know what the freebsd support is like for the new cards

Hi I'm trying to install FreeBSD 3.4 on an older machine - which I dont =

The installation is able to setup the partitions and etc ok, but when it =
gets to the part where it's trying to extract data from my CD-ROM, the =
CD-ROM spins up for a minute and transfers only 1024 bytes and the =
screen just hangs.  I went to my VTY2 and it shows a line for Generating =
/etc/fstab - so I'm asuming my CD-ROM drive mounted okay but the next =
line I dont understand
CD9660: RockRidge Extension
Now I understand the 9660 as in ISO-9660 but thats where it stops.  Is =
it maybe that the Rom drive I'm using is just really old and doesnt =
properly support the media maybe?
Its an old either 2 or 4x IDE CD-Rom drive... It did support auto-boot =
surprisingly.. Didn't need the boot floppies.
Please help....

My guess is that you have not the crypto-stuff cvsupped. Do a 'make world
-DNOSECURE', and you are on track again...

You cant get one process to use both processors at the same time (unless you
actually program it that way). But if you run povray for example, you can split
a picture up in two parts and start two copies of povray and the job will be
finsihed in half the time. Povray scales well with a beowulf cluster too: At
usenix last year a five machine beowulf was shown to do just this, in this case
the rendering time was cut down to about one fifth. 

With beowulf systems, performance is best if the amount of data between
processes in separate computers can be kept to a minimum. The overhead of
yanking data over TCP/IP is much, much, much slower than reading your own
machines memory, as you can do with threads. But that of course, requires
special tinkering with the source code.

You may want to look at MPI in the ports if you're into hacking your own code.

My server keeps spitting this line out in my messages log:
WARNING SOA expire value is less than 7 days (432000)
It shows this for each domain name in named...  And, lately, it has been 
going offline for no reason, not even a mention of that in the 
log..  Anybody know how I can fix this?

When I try to cd to this directory I get:

That's crazy. I use the burncd command, too and everything works. I don't
have an idea. Why I respond is only: Set the option -s x (where x will be
replaced by your writing speed (f.e. 4)). IDEA!! With which command have
you created the ISO File system? I use the following parameters (and it
works):

-a
(-D) (to disable Directory deeping)
-R
-L
-o ../iso.out
-v
-V Volumename

I had trouble deciding on which *BSD to use also. I tried FreeBSD first,
then OpenBSD. Those were the two I was interested in, but FreeBSD is the
easiest to install. Buy the CDs to make it even easier, I downloaded
mine, then bought the CDs and Book from Walnut Creek. I learned a lot
from this mailing list and the handbook. Give FreeBSD a try, you'll be
happy you did.

Hi,
I have a machine in Canada as well. As many people have directed me, why don't
you try reading the docs at:

http://www.apache.org/docs

I would suspect you will get all the info you need there.

Hi,
Have you tried to install tkdesk? (it's in /usr/ports/x11-fm).
I have had the same thing happen. In text mode (non Xwindows) you have to put
either " or ' to the beginning and end of the file. Like
rm 'Start Menu' or rm "Start Menu"

with a program like tkdesk, the file shows up in a file manager box and you
hightlight and delete.

Wildcards are your friends, try also the -i argument to rm.

eg,

$ cd /users/ftp/incoming/*.x*/for*/by*
$ rm -i *

Then answer 'y' or 'n' to any of the files.  This will allow you to delete
files which may have special charaters in their names as well.

Thank you very much.  This worked, so did:

rm -r "   .x  "

Thanks all again.

Would anyone here know where (and what name) the
deltas are saved when you boot and do a visual config
of the hardware.  In this screen, you are given
hardware to delete or edit from the boot probe.

The final option on this screen asks whether to save
this or not.  If you reply "Y" for yes, supposedly
this gets written out somewhere.

At this point, I suppose you make use of this
information by creating your own
/boot/loader.conf.local file.  

This question is for FreeBSD 4.0, but would also be
handy for 3.4, as there was never any answer to that
post either.  Searching "man loader" was no help.  

I am trying to find a way to test varying NIC's
without having to A - do a visual every boot, or B-
compile the NIC info into the kernel like I have been.
 Making a kernel for each NIC was a pain.

Thanks,

 --  Bob Norgard

please so I can help you better.

If you are telnetting to a system, why don't you use ssh? I strongly recommend
you dont attempt to allow root telnet. Root ssh..ok

/usr/ports/security/ssh2

Hi Sheldon,
I did that. Read /usr/src/UPDATING, did the instructions. When one of the
systems came back up, it took a day or so to get constant messages "bad block
#yada yada. I see bad144 is gone. 

To make a long story short, I had to reinstall everything from scratch. Thank
G-d my main server is still 3.4-stable. I am not saying UPDATING is not
correct. I am saying, something did not go right on both boxes.

The machine in question typically connects for around five
minutes at a time, about once per day.  When I attempted to use
xntpd in that scenario a couple of years ago, it would not play.

Perhaps it has been changed since then, but it would surprise me
if it could do much in that sort of window.  (That's why I want
to tune the kernel's timekeeping to better match reality,
because I can then use ntpdate on each connection and all will
be well.)

However, if you think xntpd can now perform adequately even with
such short and widely-spaced connections, perhaps you could say
so.  If so, I might give it another try.

Thanks.

I had the same problem. I don't have a solution (yet) to make xterm-color
work again, but I'm now using rxvt for slrn and mutt and the colors are
OK.

I have recently installed FreeBSD 4.0 on Compaq
Proliant 1600R. This machine should be booted from
the RAID array (and it does well).

The installation's going very smooth until I reboot
the machine. The BTX Loader starts and read the
loader.conf, but it can not continue loading kernel.
What I've got on the screen is the message "can't load
'/kernel'" and "disk1s1" prompt. What's going on??
Then I list the files on my RAID array, the kernel is
there. Then I try to boot
the kernel with "boot kernel" and it still doesn't
work. I see an error message "don't know how to load
kernel".

Does somebody out there have the experience installing
FreeBSD on the Compaq Proliant?

Any advice, please?



Benedict

Hi -

I installed FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE a while back, and it ran
smoothly for quite some time. Then one day, it just rebooted. Much to my
surprise too I might add. It never happened with Linux(I used it since
1996) nor with 3.4-RELEASE.. 

Anyone else have this problem? My computer kept doing it,
uptimes of about 1-9 hours at the time. Nothing in any logs or anything. I had just
installed xfstt when it started happening, i deinstalled it but it seemed
the damage was done. 

 I now run Linux-2.2.14 again, since there was nothing to
resolve my problem. I will gladly change back to FreeBSD as soon as I know
what will keep my box from rebooting.. 

HELP! :) 

/Magnus

"FreeBSD" is a composite term made up of two words: "Free" and "BSD".
The word "Free" is not trade-mark-able when used with its normal meaning
of "free of cost".  The word BSD *might* be trade-mark-able if the
University of California decided to make it so; but they didn't.  I
doubt that anybody else could claim trade mark rights over the word
"BSD", when used to refer to "BSD".  A valid trade mark gives the
claimant a monopoly over the trade mark, and I doubt that anybody except
the University of California could exercise such a monopoly over 'BSD'.

The composite term "FreeBSD" would be a very, very weak trade mark, if
it could be one at all.  It would probably be no stronger a trade mark
than any of these other composite words:

   FreeMarket
   FreeLunch
   FreeSoftware
   FreeSample

Now as to whether a trade mark is *claimed* over 'FreeBSD', that's a
different question.  I believe there is such a claim.  But a claim alone
does not make a trade mark legally valid.

The closest one could come to a valid claim would be to claim a trade
mark over the distinct upper and lowercase in 'FreeBSD'.  But it's my
understanding that US trade mark law does not allow a trade mark to be
claimed solely based on the way upper and lowercase are used.

A more distinctive name like 'Walnut Creek FreBSD' would probably make a
good trade mark, as would a more abbreviated version like 'WC-FreeBSD'.

But prefixing 'Free' to a word is a poor way of generating a legally
valid trade mark, especially when the resulting phrase is used with the
same meaning as the original word without the 'Free' prefix.

Increase your expire value to something over 7 days :-) Check the SOA
section in your DNS zone files (if you're not sure what to do look around
for a DNS tutorial on the net, or consider buying a book)

You installed MySQL-Client too? MySQL needs it. If you installed it
using the ports, it should installed that for you.

When users log in or log out, these events are usually recorded in
/var/log/wtmp, whence the "last" command reads that information.  The
message just means there aren't any entries before that date.  If you've
not been hacked, then the file was rotated by the newsyslog program (run
by cron every hour).  My /etc/newsyslog.conf (FreeBSD 4.0) has this entry:

	/var/log/wtmp                           644  3     *    @01T05 B

The "01T05" means the file will be rotated on the first day of the month
at 5:00.

If you're using "df" or "du" to determine the amount of space taken up,
note that when the BLOCKSIZE environment variable isn't defined, those
commands will give the sizes in 512-byte blocks (at least, they do on my
system).  If BLOCKSIZE is set to "K", they'll answer in 1024-byte blocks.

> Is there anything else I can do to reduce the space used on

I haven't tried this, but to reduce space wasted by many small files you
might dd the CD-ROM to a file on the hard drive, then use vnconfig to
attach that file to a vnode (you must configure your kernel with
"pseudo-device vn"), mount it, then have Samba to make the mount point
available to the Windows clients.

Perhaps something similar to:

	# dd if=/dev/acd0c of=/bigdisk/mycd.iso
	# vnconfig vn0c /bigdisk/mycd.iso
	# mkdir /foo/mycd/
	# mount_cd9660 /dev/vn0c /foo/mycd/
	# vi /usr/local/etc/smb.conf

would do it.

Yeah. you're missing a version number. If you have FreeBSD 4.0, the IDE
driver is now referred to as ad instead of wd. Hope this helps you out.

I have a 133mhz P5 systm running V3.3 solid since last september. Last
sunday evening it started panicing regularly with a kernel mode page
fault. It looks like anytime procmail runs the system rolls over. I have
disabled and the system is stable again. Of course, the purpose of this
machine is to send and receive mail so that is not a good solution. I have
taken a crash and it follows at the end.

The things I have done:
 - checked for obvious intrusions
 - re-installed procmail
 - restored from a know good backup (pre-crashing)
 - removed all interface cards
 - changed memory (all but lower 8mb since soldered on MB)
 - disabled external cache
 - rebuilt kernel w/debug

None of these helped

I am at a loss at what to look for next.
Anybody have any suggestions??

Thanks

Last week I mentioned that the Code Crusader port was broken, and someone
responded that the maintainer was notified. I just ran cvsup and saw the
Makefile changed, with the BROKEN line remove, so I tried to install the
port. Still, I get no binaries with make && make install.

I think this port is still broken.

I think it's either /boot.config or /boot/boot.config or
/boot/kernel.config .

    Hi gurus,

    I´m using FP2000 Extensions Version 4.0 with Apache 1.3.12 but it´s not
worked OK.

    When I use Frontpage (2000 or Express) to update a site, no user or
password is ask to me and the site is updated directely.

    Frontage Extensions use Apache .htaccess to make user authentications ?

    What´s happened ?

    Thanks in advanced,

    Fabrizzio

Why aren't you contacting the port's MAINTAINER with useful details
(e.g. a build log)?

Hi,

I am having almost daily crashes on a system that used
to run flawlessly. What has changed is that I am now
servering nfs for 2 AIX client boxes which are batch
processing files and therefore doing pretty much
continuous reads. Could nfs really be causing system
crashes or should I be suspecting hardware?

I have tried setting nfs to v2 and v3 client side.

I have a problem installing FreeBSD 4.0 on Compaq
Proliant 1600R. From the SmartStart software, I 
configure the machine to be booted from the RAID
drive.

The installation seems working fine. When the machine
was rebooted from thr RAID drive, I saw that the BTX
loader prints "Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf".
Suddenly after that, the OS reports that "can't load 
/kernel". What's went wrong? From the "ok" prompt, I
issue "lsdev" and the RAID drive was identified as 
disk1s1a (/) and disk1s1e (/usr). Current device is
disk1s1a. I issue another command, "ls" at the prompt
and I saw that the kernel and kernel.GENERIC resides
there. So I try to load the kernel with the "load
kernel" command, but I got a "don't know how to load
kernel" message.

What possibly did I miss?

Anyone can help me?


Thanks and regars,

Benedict

You can use the 'chsh' command to change shells.  When editing
/etc/passwd you should also always use the 'vipw' command as it rebuilds
the database when you're finished and does things like file locking etc.

Cheers,
Marc

Just as a data point, I tried adding an IDE drive to a DELL
410 workstation currently booting from SCSI.

I was able to take the IDE drive out of the boot list, but
it didn't show up in the devices after booting.  This was under
NT 4.0 though.  It looks like you have to boot from IDE :-(

Hi all,

Regarding my mouse problem I posted yesterday, I just got a bit more 
information from the daily run.  It came up with the following message:

 > psm0: failed to enable the device (doopen).

Does this help shed any more light?  (Original email is below).

Thanks again,
John

**********************
It seems that some time this afternoon my mouse decided to go no vacation 
without me.  My box has been up for (only) 30 days, and in that time, I've 
used X successfully dozens of times - including last night and this morning.

This afternoon when I tried to start X up, I get the error Cannot open 
mouse (Device not configured).  The only information I could find in the 
archives was regarding users who never even had the mouse working to 
start.  The problem is that this mouse WAS working just 10 hours ago - and 
now it's not.

I've checked the cabling, and all seems well.  Any ideas short of rebooting?

The mouse is a Logitech Trackman Marble (ps/2) running into an OmniCube 
4-port KVM, and then into the FreeBSD (3.4-Stable) box.  This configuration 
has given me no other troubles for the past 8 months that it's been running 
like this.

Thanks in advance,
John

(perhaps this would also be suitable for freebsd-isp)

Has anyone written an installation script that handles partitioning etc.
and installs a tarball with a frozen FreeBSD configuration without manual
intervention directly from a bootable CD-ROM? 

Thanks,

No, I installed the binary package straight from MySQL.

BTW, I got this to work yesterday, thanks to help from this list.  All I
needed to do was ldconfig -m /path/to/mysql/lib and it worked fine.

Thanks a lot guys!  Y'all kick ass. :-)

I believe this information is saved in the file named /boot/kernel.conf.

Jason,

Watch your back side.  I had an individual open an account with someone
else's domain name and email address.  It didn't feel right so I watched
for a day to see what he was doing.  He didn't upload a web page, but
uploaded a script named .x which turned out to be a transfer of services
script.

Good Day,

I am really at a loss or just not awake yet but, I am presently running
FreeBSD V 3.4.

When I attempt to access a standard floppy device either with fdformat
or dd I get a device not configured error. I have tried to use /dev/rfd0
/dev/fd0 and various combinations there of..

Any help would be appreciated!

Brent

I have an intellimouse explorer attached to my Sony 505TX laptop
running FreeBSD-4.0 release. It mostly works fine. Here's the output
from dmesg:

uhci0:  port 0xfce0-0xfcff irq 9 at

usb0:  on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1

icl$
ums0: 5 buttons and Z dir.

I'm using the mouse only as a USB device, not in the PS2 mouse port.

The problems are:

(1) If I suspend and resume the mouse on longer functions. As the intellimouse
is an optical device you can tell it isn't functioning simply by that fact
that the LED underneath doesn't become powered up after a reset. A quick look
at the USB source suggests there is no APM support for USB devices. Is there a
suspend/resume problem with USB devices?

(2) moused and X only seem to support 3 buttons even though the mouse has 5
buttons and Z. A quick look at the source suggests that the USB mouse driver
doesn't know the intellimouse protocol. Can I turn on the intellimouse
protocol somehow?

Thanks,

Good point...

I had been searching in vain for things like daily, weekly, monthly
in apropos and /var and /usr/local/etc.

Yesterday I read a post concerning time synchronization and the
author mentioned periodic.  I did an whereis and locate and periodic
and, voila!

You're using cd wrong. When it has spaces put it in quotes.
So, to cd there, type:

$ cd "/users/ftp/incoming/   .x  /for JUSTiSO/by KradLrobR/"

Good call. In the meantime, I'm passing this on to the -questions and
-stable lists asking for owners of SB Live cards and running 4.0 to test
this out. If it's only in 5.0, I want to reflect that in the HOWTO I wrote
up last night. For those interested in seeeing what's done already, you can
find an article on http://www.defcon1.org (and probably
http://defcon1.erudition.net too) titled "Support for your SB Live! card in
FreeBSD 4.0/5.0". Again, it looks like it took some tweaking to get it to
work in 4.0, but he says below what it took to get it to work. It went well
with 5.0 for me. The -current source I used to get mine to work is from last
night (4/6/00).

Encapsulate it in quotes... i.e.
rm -R "   .x  "
or 
mv "     .x " tobedeleted


Other tricks that can come in handy when you have screwy directory names
are with wildcards.  i.e. if the name has spaces and other non standard
chars, use the "?" wildcard. e.g. if its a 3 char file name ending in 6, 
rm -R "??6".  Use ls instead of rm first to make sure you dont have any
other matches.

Also, dont cross post these sorts of questions to the STABLE mailing list.
questions@freebsd.org is the one correct list to post to.

William,

I would not give up on Emacs so quickly. 

I run XEmacs and fire it up when I log in with no visible frames. I
have the .emacs file launch gnuserv and then use gnuclient as my
editor. It typically brings up a frame with the file I want to edit in
under a second. XEmacs even comes with a shell script to make the edit
command use gnuclient if you have a gnuserv running and xemacs if not,
but I'd prefer to just have XEmacs running at boot time.

I think emacs has similar capability, but I much prefer XEmacs, so I
have not tried it. If you can't make emacs work, try XEmacs. But don't
give up on as excellent an editor as emacs because of a problem so
easily worked around.

First off, are you using /dev/fd0c ?
Also, do you have it listed in /etc/fstab as:

/dev/fd0c     /floppy       ufs       rw,noauto       0       0

Of course /floppy may be whatever mount point you wish to use.

Hello Friends,

Isn't there an XFree86 - Distribution for the Alpha - release of
FreeBSD4.0 ?

I was surprised that there is none on the ftp site:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.0-RELEASE

as it is always for the i386 platforms.

Regards,
Carlo.

Odd.  Do you have anything in /boot.config?

I don't have a boot.config, is that a problem?

I've tried the fdisk in /stand/sysinstall a few more times trying different
things, still no luck.

Would there be a way to dump the boot manager with the disklabel command
or something? I've done a disklabel -B da0 once with no luck.

Some of you have seen my posts before, and yes, I admit I'm a NEWBIE (oi,
it's painfully obvious to me too)

I'm trying to play with SendMail v8.10.0 and needless to say, the install
and config is difficult..(for a winNT admin 
type trying to learn un*x/freeBSD admin stuff)

the www.sendmail.org site is great, but it's a level or two over my head
right now...and it's looking like the section 
on SendMail in Greg's book is actually a level under where I need to be to
set it up and config it...

Can someone point me at any quick references for the install and initial
config of sendmail  that is fit for a
newbie/wannabe sendmail admin?? (or maybe take pitty on the helpless wretch
that I am and offer some hints?)

I experienced the same problem as the original poster a couple of
weeks ago.  The machine would run smoothly, then suddenly an
application would give sig11.  All major apps after that gave
sig11 ... until a reboot.  I run Linux on the same machine, no
problem at all.

If it is a hardware a problem, how can a reboot cure it suddenly.
Most interestingly, after having the problem showing up
intermittently for 2/3 days, the problem went away.  The weather
is warmer now and I checked the fan, nothing unusual.

FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE, Pentium 200 MMX.

Hi All,

I've got a small version of / fs mounted read only in the 16MB sandisk of a
netpliance iopener.

If I hit tab during machine startup (this gets rid of the iopener logo image
and shows the iopener mounting the sandisk as the primary slave) then the
machine properly boots.

If I don't the machine hangs right after the Booting [kernel]... line.

Anyone know why? I've included dmesg output in case it helps.

     First I want to thank everyone for there informative comments on my 
partition question I had the other day. I decided to go with a shareware 
program called MasterBooter. It seems to have shrunk my
30gig hardrive so that I can fit freebsd and linus on 5gig each of it.
     However I ran into a new problem. This week I had to buy a new cdrom 
drive because mine died. I bought a 40x ide atapi and when I try to install 
freebsdn in my new partition, the cdrom device is not recognized. I had a 
24x ide atapi device before and all I did was to simply repace the old cdrom 
with the new one. This is getting frustrating. This digital research 
technology cdrom is being recognized when I boot up the computer and windows 
has no problem with it. I set the jumper on the cdrom to the setting that 
the instuctions advised and again it was recognized by windows. Doesnt 
freebsd recognize all ide atapi cdroms? Any help here would be
greatly appreciated:)

Make sure that your new cdrom is set as a master if it is the only device on
the ide bus.

Hi,

Anyone has Compex FL400TX card working with FreeBSD? It is quad port DEC
based card. Kernel sees all four interfaces (and pci bridge) normally, but
when I try to configure any interface, computer simply hangs. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Gedas

I am having an odd little X setup problem.  I run XF86Setup, and it works
mostly fine.  After everything is set up, it is time for it to test the
configuration.  The grey hatched screen with the x mouse pointer shows up,
but I never get the little buttons that ask me if the configuration is
correct.  It just skips right to where it should go if the configuration
was successful. 

Then, when I execute startx, I get the same grey screen with the X mouse
pointer.  X then shuts down.  Every time.

Granted, this is not a typical install.  I am trying to get X to run in
FreeBSD on a vmware machine running in NT.  I get the same results whether
I choose generic VGA server with 16 colors and 640X480 or whether I
install the vmware tools for freeBSD.  The only difference is that with
the tools, I get a larger grey screen before it blanks out.

Has anybody out there managed to get FreeBSD working in a virtual VMWare
machine with X working?  Thanks in advance for any help I receive.

	It's possible. If I were you I'd upgrade to 4.0-Stable (vastly improved
nfs code) and read the sections in the handbook about crash debugging so
that you can provide more information.

Good luck,

We just purchase an Overland Data MiniLibraryXpress DLT 7000 Autoloader 
(model:  DLT-LXMS7115) that we will use with Amanda to run our 
backups.  The drive is a single-ended SCSI-2 device with the DLT drive 
itself and the loader mechanism existing as two SCSI devices on the same 
bus.  Although the host operating system hasn't been decided yet, it will 
probably be FreeBSD 3.4.

I'm curious if anybody is using this type of hardware with this version of 
the OS?  Any potential problems?  Any suggestions on where I can find more 
information?


Thanks,

Oscar

First of all I would like to thank you all for replying so quickly to my
previous messages, THANKS! It looks like FreeBSD is the one for me...(Linux
tends to be very blurry because of it's different distros, standards are
nice)

I've had quite a few error messages today and they al blurred my screen. Now
I wondered if I could reroute (of course I could but how) the /dev/console
to one virtual terminal where wouldn't I'll let any login program start.
Just leave that virtual terminal for system error messages, is that possible
or isn't it much UNIX-style?

Thanks,

Paul

No.  What you are seeing is the boot2 prompt, and since you are seeing
that, you are passed the stage of your MBR stuff.  Reading the code, it is
going to wait 0x37 timer ticks before a keypress before automatically
booting /boot/loader.  At 18.2 ticks/second, that comes out to about 3
seconds.  Just to make sure, have you waited, say, 5 seconds at that
prompt before pressing Enter to see if it automatically boots?

Well, I for one use them to show text that should be typed verbatim
(at the command prompt), for instance ``ls -l | grep foobar''. Don't
ask me the origins of it, I use it because that's what it
appeared to be for so I just copied everyone else. Bah, bah :)

Can you mount the file directly from the hard disk?  You need vnconfig
for this, "man vnconfig" to see how to use it.  You should probably do
this before burning the CD anyway so you don't end up with a coaster.

The "chio" command should be able to control the changer just fine. 
Not sure how Amanda integrates with autoloaders though.

Hiya.

A search of the mailing lists tells me that this question gets asked
*way* more often than it gets answered.  ;)

I'm trying to use a "Xircom" "CreditCard Ethernet+Modem II".  Just the
Ethernet part; I don't need the modem at this stage.  At boot time and
whenever the card gets inserted, pccardd gives me the error:

xe1: xe Probing
xe1: Can't map in cis
Apr 7 01:46:18 foo pccardd[46] driver allocation failed for Xircom(CreditCard Ethernet+Modem II): Device not configured

Using a similar card as an example, I've created a pccard.conf entry
whose essential bits are:

card "Xircom" "CreditCard Ethernet+Modem II"
        config  0x1 "xe0" ?
        insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device
        remove  /sbin/ifconfig $device delete

I've put an xe0 in my kernel, tried playing with different IRQs, to no
avail.  MS Windows reports io addresses of 02f8-02ff and 1000-101f, and
irq 9, then goes on with memory addresses 02008000-02008fff and
02004000-02007fff.  MS Windows reports the card as "CEM2", and I notice
that `pccardc dumpcis` includes "Addit. info = [CEM2],[1.00]" in Tuple
#3.  I don't know ths significance of most of this.

I'm not sure what some of these configuration elements are, and they're
not documented in the man pages or handbook (or the FAQ or the mailing
list archives).  For example, what's does the "0x1" mean on the config
line?  What's the significance of the references to "xe1" when I don't
already have an xe0 in the system?  Has anyone used one of these before?

Can anybody lend me a clue?

Thanks.  :)

I was able to install sendmail 8.10 on both 3.4-RELEASE and 2.1-RELEASE 
environments with very little problem. The only real hang-up was getting 
new sendmail.cf file to carry configurations over from the old versions.  
These I changed manually..... one piece of advice, from one NT admin to 
another:

Before you go any further, download, and install WebMin 
(http://www.webmin.com/).  This is a FANTASTIC tool for admin-ing any 
Un*x system, and will help you configure your sendmail (after install). 
Many, many thanks to the Webmin folks!!

Now, I'll tell you what I did on my 2.1-RELEASE box, which had the 
hang-ups because it was running sendmail 4 (or some such really old 
sucker). The newer systems were much easier because there were prototypes 
for all the config files.

Unlike really old versions of sendmail, the config file (sendmail.cf) 
likes to live in the /etc/mail directory, as opposed to /etc.  Once I 
figured this out, the rest was simple.  

Make a back-up of your sendmail.cf (and any other relevant files) and 
/usr/sbin/sendmail... if this breaks, you'll want to be able to back-track.

Then download the tarball from senmail.org and untar it somewhere on your 
system.  If you don't know how to do this, you're in a lot of trouble 
already, and you should hire a consultant ;)

Kill the sendmail process that is running. 

Run 'sh Build' in the sendmail/ directory,   and all the other steps 
listed in listed in the INSTALL document... read it.

Once sendmail was installed, I had to manually create a /etc/mail 
directory and copy the generic sendmail.cf from the distribution into 
it.  Both older versions of sendmail.cf that I was using were not 
compatible with 8.10, so I had to start with the generic new version and 
merge any parameters/files/configurations into the generic one.  This is 
where Webmin came in handy.  For instance all my Cw records were all 
listed in sendmail.cf in the old version. In the new version these 
domains are contained in /etc/mail/sendmail.cw, so manual creation of 
these records was necessary.  

The sendmail distribution, by default, anticipates that you are going to be 
running it on a single system ... so there are some assumptions made in 
the generic sendmail.cf that you may not like.  The good news is that all 
this stuff is clearly marked and easy to edit (ie anti spam rules, 
virtual users, etc).

Finally when sendmail runs it wants to create a /var/run/sendmail.pid 
file.  Make sure that the process can write to that directory.

The whole upgrade took me about an hour.. so it isn't really that scary.

Hope this helps.
Peace,
Blake

Hmm, yes I got that. Can't remember the details, but I just renamed
it, __libgmodule12.la or something similar, and re-made xmms and it
worked fine. I then read something about these .la files on the lists
and then just deleted it. No problems with anything as a result.
Hopefully someone will jump in with a better explanation (or you could
search the mail archives) but just try re0naming it to get xmms built.

HTH.

I am trying to install XFree86 3.3.6 from the FreeBSD ports collection.
The 'make' and 'make install' appears to complete without errors.
But then when I type

    startx

I get this output on the screen:

== begin output ==
Authentication failed - cannot start X server.
Perhaps you do not have console ownership?_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61
giving up.
xinit:  Connection refused (errno 61):  unable to connect to X server
xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
== end output ==

There is about a 30-second pause after "ownership"? appears in the
output above, and then the rest of the text appears, and then I am back
to the shell prompt.

Since I am invoking 'startx' while logged in as root, there should be no
console ownership problem.  But just to be sure, I did already put a
line in /etc/fbtab that looks like this:

   /dev/ttyv0   0600  /dev/console

(And I did try 'startx' while logged in on ttyv0.)

Also, I did a web search, and based on that, added the following
line into /etc/pam.conf:

   xserver   auth   required   pam_permit.so

Also, after a web search, I found that I needed to download a file
called Wraphelp.c.  I did so, and I put a copy of that file in the
xc/lib/Xdmcp directory after I did 'make extract' and before I did the
'make' and 'make install'.

Are there other steps that I need to take?  If anybody knows of a web
page that describes the step-by-step process of getting the Xfree86 port
to work, all in one place, I would apreciate a pointer to it.

Since I did what many people must be doing, i.e., going into
the x11/Xfree86 directory and typing 'make install', I wonder if
many other people are encountering the same problem.

From: "Kevin Oberman"

I ran into an old problem trying to run X clients over an SSH session.
The problem is that newer releases of X11 check on whether the DISPLAY
is pointing to the local system, and if it is, it uses the Unix socket
instead of the network socket. The result is that X will not run to
the remote system.

I patched the relevant source file and built XFreeBSD and replaced my
libX11.so with the new one, but now I can't use X at all. I get:
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libXThrStub.so.6" not found

A quick review of the build shows the following:
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: warning: libXThrStub.so.6, needed by ../../exports/lib/libX11.so, not found (try using --rpath)

Hmmm. Just a warning, but it means that the new libX11 is pretty
useless!

Any clue on the mysterious libXThrStub.so.6? Can I build the libX11 to
not require the stub library? Or, more succinctly, HELP!

Try building XFree without PAM support (i.e. answering 'NO' to the
question about PAM).

(The following information was provided by Christopher Holden and
Martin Minkus. I'm just putting it all together).

Thanks to the above-mentioned, I am no longer using my SBLive! card for
a paper-weight. So far I have only used it to play CD sound and mp3
files, so on performance your mileage may vary. Anyway, here
is a step-by-step of what I did:

1) Go to:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/

     and download the following two files:

     emu10k1.c
     emu10k1.h

2) Edit emu10k1.c. Look for the following line:

    codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, NULL, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

    Remove the NULL entry. It should now say:

    codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

3) Place these files in /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci. You may also wish
    to keep a backup so your first CVSUP doesn't flush them down the
    toilet.

4) Edit /usr/src/sys/conf/files and insert the following line in the
    appropriate place (You know....alphabetically?):

    dev/sound/pci/emu10k1.c optional pcm pci

    (You may also wish to keep this file safe from the Tidy-Bowl Man).

5) Edit your kernel config file and make sure it has the following two
    devices:

    device    pcm
    device    pci

    Christopher also mentioned device sbc. Not sure what this serves,
    but I am going to add it in a minute to see what happens as ac_97
    is saying my DAC is not ready.

6) Recompile your kernel and reboot. dmesg should show the following:

    pcm0:  port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 10 at device 9.0 on pci0
    pcm0: ac97 codec reports dac not ready (Maybe you won't get this)
    pci0:  (vendor=0x1102, dev=0x7002) at 9.1

    Cat /dev/sndstat should show:

    FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr  7 2000 13:12:21
    Installed devices:
    pcm0:  at io 0xe400 irq 10 (1p/0r channels duplex)

    or something similar, io and irq may vary.

7) You may have to go into /dev and type ./MAKEDEV snd0, but not sure
    about this.

That's all I've done so far, will post a follow-up as to whether device
sbc clears up my DAC problem. I also notice midi is not working. If
anyone has a problem with this HOWTO or has more to add, feel free to
do so. Just make the changes and repost, you do not need to quote.

I would also appreciate some feedback about if this worked. Just reply
to me, no need to clutter the mail lists.

Good luck!

Basically I am trying to set up print capabilities on a windows environ from
my BSD box. I got Samba running, and I can access the share through
smbclient well enough, but my only experience with making it work is with
Linux's printtool command. Is there anything like this for FreeBSD?

I don't know about "correct", in the most literal sense, but it is
the message that you're supposed to get, yes :)

(The following information was provided by Christopher Holden and
Martin Minkus. I'm just putting it all together).

Thanks to the above-mentioned, I am no longer using my SBLive! card for
a paper-weight. So far I have only used it to play CD sound and mp3
files, so on performance your mileage may vary. Anyway, here
is a step-by-step of what I did:

1) Go to:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/

and download the following two files:

emu10k1.c
emu10k1.h

2) Edit emu10k1.c. Look for the following line:

codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, NULL, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

Remove the NULL entry. It should now say:

codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

3) Place these files in /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci. You may also wish
to keep a backup so your first CVSUP doesn't flush them down the
toilet.

4) Edit /usr/src/sys/conf/files and insert the following line in the
appropriate place (You know....alphabetically?):

dev/sound/pci/emu10k1.c optional pcm pci

(You may also wish to keep this file safe from the Tidy-Bowl Man).

5) Edit your kernel config file and make sure it has the following two
devices:

device    pcm
device    pci

Christopher also mentioned device sbc. Not sure what this serves,
but I am going to add it in a minute to see what happens as ac_97
is saying my DAC is not ready.

6) Recompile your kernel and reboot. dmesg should show the following:

pcm0:  port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 10 at device 9.0 on pci0
pcm0: ac97 codec reports dac not ready (Maybe you won't get this)
pci0:  (vendor=0x1102, dev=0x7002) at 9.1

Cat /dev/sndstat should show:

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr  7 2000 13:12:21
Installed devices:
pcm0:  at io 0xe400 irq 10 (1p/0r channels duplex)

or something similar, io and irq may vary.

7) You may have to go into /dev and type ./MAKEDEV snd0, but not sure
about this.

That's all I've done so far, will post a follow-up as to whether device
sbc clears up my DAC problem. I also notice midi is not working. If
anyone has a problem with this HOWTO or has more to add, feel free to
do so. Just make the changes and repost, you do not need to quote.

I would also appreciate some feedback about if this worked. Just reply
to me, no need to clutter the mail lists.

Good luck!

Use 'Alt + F?' where ? is a number.

Hi,

I started getting the following error when trying to access DBI calls from 
within a perl script.  I was specifically making calls to an mSQL database 
server.

The error was

    read: Interrupted system call

What is this error and what causes it and how can I avid it in the future?

Thanks,
Mark

Same for me...

The pb seems to be in the patches. If you start from the sources,
untar it, configure then make, all is ok.

Infortunately, i've no time enough to look further but the pb is related
to libtool.

I'm not a lawyer, and I haven't even played one on TV, but...

I think you completely misunderstand trademark law.  Context is of utmost
importance in determining  the validity of a trademark.  For instance, the
word "Apple" is a  trademark of Apple Computer Corporation when 
used in the context  of computers
(http://www.apple.com/legal/default.html#tm).  The same  word, "Apple", 
used in the context of music, is a trademark of Apple Records, 
which markets The Beetles' songs. Apple Computer's forays into 
the music world (marketing the iMac) have  cost them -- they lost a
trademark infringement suit lodged by Apple Records (see
http://www.nametrade.com/namecost.html).

If you visit Apple Computer's web site, you might also notice that 
Apple has trademarked composite words such as "AppleLAN", and 
even "AirPort", that, under your theory, should be invalid as 
trademarks.  Yet somehow, I don't notice anyone challenging these 
trademarks.

In truth, it doesn't really matter whether a trademarked term is a 
composite of well-known words.  Although making up a new word 
(e.g. Pentium) gives better protection, it can still be lost (which 
Thermos corporation discovered the hard way).

You are partially right.  The combination of upper and lower case 
alone might not be sufficient to distinguish a trademark.  But that, 
combined with a specific context (computer operating systems), 
should be quite sufficient to distinguish FreeBSD as a trademark, 
particularly since almost everyone in the world who has ever 
seen or heard the term knows it refers to a specific product, 
rather than a generic category of products.

A trademark can even be based on the specific font used to print 
a word.  The letters "IBM", when printed in the distinctive lined 
font used by IBM, is their trademark, and context is probably 
not significant in determining it's enforceability.  For example, 
I could start a business called "International Bug Managers",  
and make my living in pest control.  I might very well get away with 
using the initials "IBM" on a business card or something, but I'm  quite
certain that if I printed them in IBM's special font, I'd  have no hope at
all of prevailing in court.

The only significant issue is whether FreeBSD, Inc. has been sufficiently 
aggressive in defending the trademark.  The fastest way to lose a trademark 
is to let others use it without permission.  Once that becomes established 
as "normal", you've lost the right to require them to get permission, i.e., 
you've lost the trademark.

I've got a 3.1-RELEASE server with an uptime around 90 days when it just up
and decided to reboot.  The only thing that I found of interest was
"vm_page_free: freeing wired page".  I search the archives and saw several
postings about freeing free page and a few about invalid wire count, but
none matching that.  Is it possibly a freak occurance, or do I need to start
checking ram?  This box is running apache web server, named, ncftpd, big
brother, and qmail.  It's a PII 400, 192M Ram, UW 9gig SCSI, drive.  I've
never pushed the resources on it

Thanks in advance,

It means you got a signal sent to your process while it was waiting
to read data.  Figure out if something is sending you signals.

I'm running 4.0-STABLE FreeBSD which I just installed yesterday.  I cvsUP'ed
everything today and ran make world.  So all the sources and ports should be
the latest versions.  I am having problems with mail. I use fetchmail to
get my mail from my ISP's pop server and procmail to filter everything and
place into ~/Mail/Inbox.  When I try to read the mail with mutt it says
that ~/Mail/Inbox is not a mailbox. I did a make deinstall/reinstall of
both procmail and mutt and I still get the same results.  Does anyone know
what I might be doing wrong?

Also the statements for colors that I have defined in my ~/.muttrc are not
being recognized. Mutt just starts up in mono with no error messages. It just
seems to ignore the color directives.

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA

What is printtool?

You can try reading the lpd and lpr manpages and see if they offer the
same functionality.

For some obscure reason, make release seems to want to get the source =

I'm not giving up so quickly.  I can  make Emacs do all kinds
of stuff, but it's just principal

William,

I would not give up on Emacs so quickly.

I run XEmacs and fire it up when I log in with no visible frames. I

have the .emacs file launch gnuserv and then use gnuclient as my

editor. It typically brings up a frame with the file I want to edit
in

under a second. XEmacs even comes with a shell script to make the edit

command use gnuclient if you have a gnuserv running and xemacs if not,

but I'd prefer to just have XEmacs running at boot time.

I think emacs has similar capability, but I much prefer XEmacs, so I

have not tried it. If you can't make emacs work, try XEmacs. But don't

give up on as excellent an editor as emacs because of a problem so

easily worked around.

Hi.

I am trying to transfer users from an AIX machine  to a FreeBSD machine.
Ok, creating the users and their homes was ok. My problem is: I can't
change the users' passwords because it's impossible, there +3000 users
in the AIX machine, so I must keep the same passwords, but AIX passwd
encryption != to FreeBSD passwd encryption. I'd like to know if any one
out there knows a solution for  this problem? Does any one  know how to
transfer the passwords? Have any one had this sort of problem?

Thanks a lot. I really really need help.

MaurícioWP.

Hello there!

My question is:

I have FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE installed on my server.

I discovered that whois utility from FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE+ has a feature I need so much.

Can I install 3.4+ whois on my 2.2.8 without upgrading the whole system?
Where can I get it separately?

Thanks a lot for your support.

Alexey.

Dunno the answer to this but I have a question to piggy back this one:

The new whois format...anyone know how to get the old format instead of the 
new format via the whois command...I hate this new format.

We have installed about 10 FreeBSD gateways for some of our clients
so far (dialup/Cable/DSL). For maintenance purposes it would be nice
to have telnet access to these boxes when required.

Ideally we'd like to phone a contact on site and ask them for their
gateway's current
IP address so we can telnet to it. However, we'd prefer that contact to be
able
to run a Win32 app of some sort that would tell them the IP address, rather
than talking them
thru the login at the BSD box and then having them do an 'ifconfig'.

Sitting on a Win32 net behind a FreeBSD gateway, how can I know
the gateway's outbound if IP address without lifting my butt out of my
chair and doing an 'ifconfig ' on the gateway (or telnetting to it)?

Any help/pointers greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
Kai

winipcfg from the start->run menu will give you the gateway Windows is
trying to go through... is that what you're looking for? It also gives the
IP address currently assigned to it.

Here is what I have had to do to make Code Crusader 1.5.3 build as a
port.

Modify line 97 in patch-ac to get rid of the line 172 error. There was
a blank right after the + that was causing the line 172 separator
error

+	@mkdir ${JCC}

I haven't figured out how to setup a patch style of diff but this is
my first diff that I applied to
ACE/ACE_wrappers/config-freebsd-pthread.h
47d46
< #define ACE_LACKS_SIGSET
87a87,95
> #if (__FreeBSD_version < 400000)

> #define ACE_HAS_UCONTEXT_T
> #define ACE_HAS_SOCKLEN_T
> #endif /* __FreeBSD_version >= 400000 */
>

The second diff is 
ACE/ACE_wrappers/ace/Log_Msg.cpp
673c673
< #if ! (defined(__BORLANDC__) && __BORLANDC__ >= 0x0530)
---
> #if defined(ACE_LACKS_SYS_NERR)
675c675
< #endif /* ! (defined(__BORLANDC__) && __BORLANDC__ >= 0x0530) */
---
> #endif /* defined(ACE_LACKS_SYS_NERR) */

I also haven't figured out how to check for bison. Code Crusader is
dependant on bison being installed.

These changes produced a jcc on my FreeBSD 4.0-Stable using the
port/codecrusader/Makefile.

I tried building a simple hellow_world from the tutorial. I had errors
but it created the source file, project, and it appeared to try and
compile it.

I tried this, adding
  
	 autoboot_delay="1"

to /boot/loader.conf (actually I had to create the file) but I still get the
10-second countdown. Any idea why?

	  # cd /boot
	  # cat loader.conf
	  autoboot_delay="1"
	  #

It is still broken; however, this is what I had to do to make Code
Crusader 1.5.3 build as a
port.

Modify line 97 in patch-ac to get rid of the line 172 error. There was
a blank right after the + that was causing the line 172 separator
error.

+       @mkdir ${JCC}

If you get rid of this error it should build on FreeBSD 3.4. The
remaining changes were required on 4.0. I have yet to try all on my
3.4-Stable system.

I haven't figured out how to setup a patch style of diff but this is
my first diff that I applied to
ACE/ACE_wrappers/config-freebsd-pthread.h

I've downloaded the Netscape 6 preview release for Linux.  I'm attempting to
run it under FreeBSD with Linux emulation but I'm missing a shared library,
"libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2":

> ldd mozilla-bin
mozilla-bin:
...
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 => not found
...

The handbook suggests that "If you have access to a Linux system, see what
shared libraries the application needs, and copy them to your FreeBSD
system."  However, I don't have access to a Linux system.

Could someone suggest a location that I can get this library from?

My system is FreeBSD 3.1.  I have installed the linux_lib port.

Thank you,
Chance.

I too have had this problem, seemingly not related to the contents of the
crontab file, as for me, a kill and restart of the cron process cured it.

I have had it reoccur a couple of times since then, but the restart always
fixes it.

Actually, that will give the internal ip address of the local machine
and the gateway.
  
What's easiest to do, is have them go to one of your fbsd boxes http
server, and then do a tail on the access_log.
  
If you have apache installed, it should be:
/usr/local/apahche/logs/access_log
  
so:
tail /usr/local/apahche/logs/access_log
  
Would printout the hostname of that machine.
  
I'm sure there are many many more ways of doing this. This was at the
top of my head.

I have a directory: /dos with rwx for root and r-x for wheel and r--
for the rest.
My username is part of the wheel group and I want to change
permissions so wheel can also write to this directory. I use chmod 774
/dos, but when I do a ls -l nothing has changed. I perform this as
su'd to root.

This directory is /dos which is the mount point for my physical disk
2. This disk is a fat32 drive. The fstab entry is

/dev/ad1s1	/dos	msdos	rw	2	2

Why can't I change permissions? I thought root could?

I'm not sure, but I have a hunch.
When it loads for me, it says that it loads /boot/defaults/loader.conf.

So, you might have to put it in that file.

Eureka!!! It works on my 4.0 box. Not sure how to play cd's so I haven't
tried that yet. I added device sbc to my kernel and I still get the DAC
not ready message. 

Any idea when this will be included in the 4.0 sources?

Just FYI, guys, but there's prelimary support for the SB Live from Cameron
Grant in -current.  Most likely it'll be MFC'd to 4.0 when it has had some
shakeout.

I am currently running FreeBSD as a router
for my network. It uses nat. The thing
is that I do not want regular users to be
accessing the computers behind the gateway.

I basically want to deny all packets from
any users via de0 unless, the user is in the
wheel group.

How can I do this?

I had thought about something like that (equivalent to going to a site
like http://privacy.net/analyze) which would also give them their
current IP.

Most of our sites don't run apache though; they are plain vanilla
gateways...

Frank, that's what started this whole mess. I wanted to be helpful, so I
wrote a HOWTO on how I got my SB Live working in -current and made it
available to a few folks. I just assumed, since the branch from 4.0 was
recent, that the sound drivers would be pretty much the same. Don't take
me out to the tree for my hanging. I know it was a mistake to assume. I
can assure you that it won't happen again. After seeing that Martin got
his working in 4.0, but gave the steps he had to take to get the end
result, I now feel like asshole extraordinaire. On the same note, it's
shown several people that it DOES work. Depending on how bad you want
it, you might want to run -current. 'cmon... everyone's doing it! ok..
so much for peer pressure. 
 As for my add of the sbc line, it's the replacement for snd. I used
this pcm/sbc combo for support of my AWE64 before I tried the SB Live.
After I see that the waves have settled, I'll go back and re-write my
HOWTO, and will probably end up wiping out a drive from another machine
this weekend, just so i can go through the process of a 4.0 install and
finalizing this once and for all. I apologize for all the confusion it
may have caused. Now go enjoy your newly supported device!

How about this... create say a hotmail account.

Edit the crontab on the gateways. Put this in a normal user's crontab:
59	1	*	*	*	ifconfig -a | sendmail user@hotmail.com

That way, every day, the machine will send a mail to user@hotmail.com
with the new ip address. Then, you just go to the hotmail account,
and you can see the ip address of that box.

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

Last update 3 September 1999

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

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

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

II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:    How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!

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

      unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      Eudora
      exmh
      Microsoft Exchange
      Microsoft Internet Mail
      Microsoft Outlook
      Netscape

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


Message 1:
Subject: (none)

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

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

Message 2:
Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD

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

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

V: How to follow up to a question
=================================

Often you will want to send in additional information to a question
you have already sent.  The best way to do this is to reply to your
original message.  This has three advantages:

1.  You include the original message text, so people will know what
    you're talking about.  Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out,
    though.

2.  The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to
    put one in, didn't you?).  Many mailers will sort messages by
    subject.  This helps group messages together.

3.  The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the
    previous message.  Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages,
    showing the exact relationships between the messages.

VI: How to answer a question
============================

Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider:

1.  A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to
    answering questions.  Read them.

2.  Has somebody already answered the question?  The easiest way to
    check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then
    (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all
    together.

    If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean
    that you shouldn't send another answer.  But it makes sense to
    read all the other answers first.

3.  Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been
    said?  In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much,
    although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a
    problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or
    whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software.  If
    you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further
    relevant information.

4.  Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the
    person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express
    himself very well.  Even with the best understanding of the system,
    it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question.  This
    doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question
    more frustrated or confused than ever.  If nobody else answers, and
    you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more
    information.

5.  Are you sure your answer is correct?  If not, wait a day or so.
    If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply
    and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since
    nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI
    CD-ROM with a frog?".

6.  Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender
    and to FreeBSD-questions.  Many people on the FreeBSD-questions
    are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to
    by others.  If you take a message which is of general interest off
    the list, you're depriving these people of their information.  Be
    careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with
    hundreds of CCs.  If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc:
    lines appropriately.

7.  Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the
    minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for
    somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what
    you're talking about.

8.  Use some technique to identify which text came from the original
    message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending
    ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space
    after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the
    original text both make the result more readable.

9.  Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it
    replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where
    each reply comes before the text to which it replies.

10.  Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a
     text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it
     automatically, you should do it manually.

11.  If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too
     long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it.  In the case of
     an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the
     subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was:
     HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread
     will have less difficulty following it.

     In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you
     did it, but try not to be rude.  If you find you can't answer
     without being rude, don't answer.

     If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format,
     just reply to the submitter, not to the list.  You can just send
     him this message in reply, if you like.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition




                         Last revision: 2 August 1999

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

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

You can get the current document in four forms:

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                                                         Page 1

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

Pages 190 and 191
_________________

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

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

Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with:

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

Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter:

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

UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration
____________________________________________

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


                                                                         Page 3

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

Thanks  to  Francisco  Reyes    for  pointing  out  this
problem.

Replace the text at the top of the page with:

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

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

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

Page 409
________

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

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

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

Page 4






                     Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition


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

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


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


Thanks to Andreas Longwitz  for pointing out this error.

Getting errata for older editions of the book
_____________________________________________

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

                                                                         Page 5






Getting errata for older editions of the book


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

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

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

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

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

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

5. The  current,  third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999.  This is the correct
  list for this edition.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition




                          Last revision: 21 June 1999

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

The  following  is  a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.  They
relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997.  If you have  this
book,  please  check this list.  If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996,
please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This  same  file  is  also
available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/.

This list is available in four forms:

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

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

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

o An  ASCII-only  version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This
  version is posted every week to the  FreeBSD-questions  mailing  list.   Only
  take  this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure
  that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

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

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

o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the  following  command  to  find
  process information:

  $ ps aux | grep foo

  Unfortunately,  ps  is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator
  upon which it is working.  This command usually works fine  on  a  relatively
  wide  xterm,  but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate
  exactly the information you're looking for, so you end  up  with  no  output.
  You can fix that with the w option:

  $ ps waux | grep foo

  Thanks to Sue Blake  for this information


Location of the sample files
____________________________

On  the  2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the
specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).  The 2.2.5 CD-ROM  came
out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM
as a single gzipped tar file  /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.   It  contains  the
following files:

See page 209 for more information on using tar.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book.  I'll put up
some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future.

Thanks  to Frank McCormick  for drawing this to my attention.

Chapter 8: Setting up X11
_________________________

For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical
to   distribute   errata.    You  can  download  the  PostScript  version  from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps,   or   the    ASCII    version    from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt.  No HTML version is available.

Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add:

In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents
(sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh).  With the exception of sh, they are all  in  the
Ports Collection.  I personally use the bash shell.

This  is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard
shell.  The standard BSD shell is the  C  shell  (csh),  which  has  a  fuller-
featured  descendent  tcsh.   In particular, the standard installation sets the
root user up with a csh.  See page 152 (in this errata) for details of  how  to
change the shell.




                                                                         Page 3

Page 11: Reading the handbook
_____________________________

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

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

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

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

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

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

Page 12: Printing the handbook
______________________________

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

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

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

You have a choice of formats for the output:

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

Page 4






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


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

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

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

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

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

$ make FORMATS=ps

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

Thanks to Bob Beer  for drawing this to my attention.

Page 45:  Preparing floppies for installation
_____________________________________________

Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the  page)
with:

The  floppy  set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start
with bin. followed by two letters.  These other  files  are  all  240640  bytes
long,  except  for the final one which is usually shorter.  Use the MS-DOS COPY
program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until  you've
got  all  the  distributions  you  want  packed  up in this fashion.  Copy each
distribution into subdirectory corresponding to  the  base  name--for  example,
copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on.

In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164.  It should
be  165.   Thanks  to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost
your name).

Page 88: setting up for dumping
_______________________________

The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf.  This variable is  no
longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev.

_______

At the end of the section How to install a package add the text:

Alternatively,  you  can  install  packages  from  the  /stand/sysinstall Final
Configuration Menu.  We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71.   When
you  start  sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting
Index, and then selecting Configure.

Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add:


Install ports when installing the system
________________________________________

The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar  archive  containing  all
the  ports.   You  can install it with the base system if you select the Custom
distribution and include the ports collection.  If you didn't install  them  at
the  time,  use  the  following method to install them all (about 40 MB).  Make
sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter:

Replace the example at the top of the page with:

Instead, do:

# cd /cd4/ports/distfiles
# mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles              make sure you have a distfiles directory
# for i in *; do
>   ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i
> done

If you're using csh or tcsh, enter:

# cd /cd4/ports/distfiles
# mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles              make sure you have a distfiles directory
# foreach i (*)
?   ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i
? end

Thanks to Christopher Raven   and  Francois  Jacques   for drawing this to my attention.

Page 104
________

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

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

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

If you are using csh, enter:

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

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

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


                                                                         Page 7

If you are using csh, enter:

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.

name.   In  particular,  the  Logitech  protocol only applies to older Logitech
mice.  The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft  protocols.   Nearly
all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both.

If  you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver
is included in the kernel.  The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both  mice,
but the PS/2 driver is disabled.  Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it.

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

Changing your shell
___________________

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

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

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

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

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

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

Page 10






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


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

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

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

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

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

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

o Copy the shell to /bin, for example:

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

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

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


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


                                                                        Page 11

________

Add the following paragraph

Unmounting file systems

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

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

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

Page 12






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


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

# umount /dev/cd1a
# umount /cd1

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

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

Thanks to Ken Deboy  for pointing out this
omission.

The example in the middle of the page should read:

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

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

can start it by name:

# lpd

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

lpd_enable="YES"              # Run the line printer daemon

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

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

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

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

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

  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".

Problems executing Linux binaries
_________________________________

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

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

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:

The  description  at  the  top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address
instead  of  Ethernet  address.   In  addition,  a  page  number  reference  is
incorrect.  Replace the paragraph with:

o Line  1  shows  an  ARP  request:  system  presto is looking for the Ethernet
  address of wait.  It would appear that  wait  is  currently  not  responding,
  since there is no reply.

o Line 2 is not an IP message at all.  tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and
  the beginning of the packet.  We don't consider this kind of request in  this
  book.

o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message.  We looked at ntp on page 160.

o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait.

o Line  5  is  a  broadcast  message  from  bumble  on  the  rwho  port, giving
  information about its current load averages and how long it has been up.  See
  the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information.

o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on
  presto.  It is sending 384 bytes (with  the  sequence  numbers  536925467  to
  536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received
  from presto had the sequence number 325114346.  The window size is 17280.

o Line 7 is another ARP request.  presto is looking for the Ethernet address of
  freebie.   How  can  that  happen?   We've  just  seen  that  they have a TCP
  connection.  In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes.   It's  quite
  possible  that  all  connections between presto and freebie have been dormant
  for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again.

o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address.

o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw  on
  line  6.   It  acknowledges  the  data  up  to sequence number 536925851, but
  doesn't send any itself.

o Line 10 shows  another  448  bytes  of  data  from  freebie  to  presto,  and
  acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6.

I botched my upgrade to 4.0-STABLE by not changing 'wd' entries to 'ad'
entries in /etc/fstab.  Now I can't seem to recover.

If I boot into single-user mode with either kernel or kernel.GENERIC, I
can't get past the "wd0: bad sector table not supported" error.  It
wants me to enter something similar to "ufs:/dev/wd0s1a".  I've tried
that, and variations like "ufs:/dev/ad0s1a".  No matter what I do it
rejects what I type.  (I've even tried setting rootdev=/dev/ad0s1a, as 
suggested by Mark Ovens in response to my earlier cry for help--thanks
Mark).

If I boot into single-user mode with kernel.old, I can get past booting
(well sorta).  It mounts /, and only /, as read-only.  I can't seem 
to remount it read/write.  The mount command simply refuses and spits back
"Block device required".

Please help me, I'm desperate.  I'll do anything to avoid the standard M$
answer of "reinstall from the ground up".

TIA,

-Sean Noonan

Whoa!  No one is criticizing you, least of all me.  My email was just an
FYI, just in case you weren't aware that Cameron was already working on
such a driver.  If you want to duplicate work, that's perfectly all right
with me.

I have read many recommendations on using Argus to monitor the network. 
I have installed and played with Argus (in the most basic way).  Are
there any good instructions and/or examples on how to use Argus?

Thanks for any info,

Scott

If you unmount /dos before running chmod then it will work.

    Could you tell me how to run a ppp session as a user other than root? I've added my user name to the default section of the ppp.config file after allow user. I've also used VIPW to add my user name to the network group. Is their something I missed? If this is the wrong email address for this question let me know the right one.

Ironicly, User PPP doesn't play well with users, while Kernel PPP doesn't really care.  use kernel ppp and that will solve that problem.

I'm not sure you fully understood the response - they could go to _YOUR_
site, and run a cgi-bin script which simply spit back "Your external
IP address is %%%%."  In fact, such a script would be very very simple,
something like:

---- snip ----
#!/bin/sh

echo "Content-type: text/html"
echo ""
echo "Your IP address is $REMOTE_ADDR."
---- snip ----

I just dropped it into an Apache cgi-bin directory, and it worked first
time off.  Gussy it up with whatever HTML you want in there, and away you go.

Later,
scott

I just tried installing FreeBSD 4.0-Release on my Portege 660CDT.  It's
been upgraded to a 4G hard disk, with 2G to Win98 and 2G to Linux (well,
FreeBSD didn't support the Ethernet card at the time, of course it turned
out that Linux didn't either).  Anyway, I booted off the floppies and it
looks like it will see the "PLIP network card".  I went into Partition
and changed the Subtype 5 to FreeBSD (165), then into Label, and here's
where the problem occurred: it says ad0s1 is a 2G DOS partition properly,
but doesn't list the other partition below, and above shows the ad0s2
FreeBSD slice, but thinks it only has 3MB free?  Help?

Finally got my copy of StarOffice 5.1 to run... however, while it is
running (and quite well, I might add), my system log starts to fill up with
thousands of messages like:

Apr  7 08:43:46 samson /kernel: cmd soffice.bin pid 1982 tried to use
non-present sched_yield
Apr  7 08:44:17 samson last message repeated 1525 times
Apr  7 08:45:36 samson last message repeated 2118 times

Now if SO wasn;t didn't run, or didn't install, I would know what to better
to do... any ideas?

Peace,
Blake

Hi:

Those of you who know may find this funny, those who don't might end up
with some clarity from this message. 

First, I have a good backup. I wanted to upgrade from 3.2 to 4.0 and read
something about using sysinstall. I fired it up and slowly watched my
commands (ls, more, etc) start failing. Then I read this:

The most commonly made mistake in this regard is the use of an old copy of
/stand/sysinstall from an existing installation to upgrade to a newer
version of FreeBSD.  This is NOT recommended. 

I think I did this. So, before restoring I figured I'd find out how to
upgrade my sysinstall and run the upgrade. However, the release notes say
don't do this, but they don't say what TO DO.

I think I'm going to restore and upgrade with cvsup. Assistance with that
would be helpful too. But, I think if sysinstall is an option the user
should be told how to do it that way and not just the quote above.


Thanks,
Jon

Looks like a temporary problem.  Try again, and if it doesn't work,
show the complete message.  Your headers seem to be messed up:

You should at least have a valid 'To:' line.  Maybe something else is
causing the bounce.  What MUA is this?

Hi!


I wanted to add a brand new hard disk (IDE type) on a already
exist 4.0 system,
(1) How to fdisk, format and mount?
(2) Can I use /stand/sysinstall to do that?

Thanks

umm... i wasn't claiming to duplicate anyone's work. Most of all, I'd
like to tip my hat to Luigi and Cameron, for the the working code to use
my SB Live card.... and also Seigo for documenting the pcm info (man
pcm)!
 This was mainly a claim that "it's working on my machine". When I said
I got it to work, I did not mean to say that I was the one doing
development... just trying to get the word out that there is a working
driver for owners of that particular card. You can find me on IRC
sometimes, unable to count the number of times i've seen the question,
"Does FreeBSD support my SB Live?"
 For those of you who have seen the HOWTO i wrote, i've asked the
webmaster that it be modified to reflect it is for 5.0 only. To redeem
myself, I intend to write one up for 4.0 users sometime this weekend, if
all goes well. I plan to install 4.0 on another machine and take notes
on my sound card support installation sometime tomorow.

Yes, you can use sysinstall. I'm doing that on my server right now. I
have an IBM ultra-wide that I'm adding. You use Configure, fisk to
create the slice, and label to finish the job.

Subject: HELP: mount point disappeared after rebuilding kernel
To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

I'm using the following setup:

FreeBSD 40-STABLE (april 6 build, now april 7 build)
Pentium 166 w/ 64Mb ram
2 IDE hard drives

I recently mounted a partition on my 2nd HD and
created some symlinks in order to free up some space
in /usr.

I mounted the partition as /disk2 using the
/stand/sysinstall apps's DISKLABEL menu option from
INDEX menu.

I then created created symlinks after copying the
current contents of the original dirs:

ln -s /disk2/var /var
ln -s /disk2/tmp /tmp
ln -s /disk2/local /usr/local

So far so good, everything worked fine for a couple
days (I believe I even rebooted once during this time
without problems).  At this point a "df -m" showed
everything as I desired with /usr and /disk2 showing
300Mb and 100Mb free respectively.

I rebuilt the kernel after cvsuping 4.0-STABLE using
the same script I've used numerous times.  Everything
seemed normal until I rebooted immediately after the
rebuild--the system rebooted to single-user because it
couldn't find /var!!  

For some reason /disk2 became just a regular directory
on / and it doesn't have the var, tmp, and local
subdirectories it had before the rebuild/reboot.  When
I do a "df -m" /disk no longer shows up on the list.

Consequently, I've lost /var, /tmp, and /usr/local
until I figure out how to remount /disk2 without
losing the data.  Any help would be appreciated.

Is there any reason the /disk2 mount point should
disappear like this?

NOTE: 

The script I used to rebuild the kernel simply had
(I'm paraphrasing since I'm on a diff machine):
cd foodir
config -r foo
config foo
cd ../../compile/foo
make depend
make
make install

I repeat that this script was used previously and it
wan't modified so I doubt it has anything to do with
the mount point disappearing.

Q: what MUA do i use?
A: none, i just use sendmail and a text editor.
   the same as periodic scripts do ...

[i think i am switching questions on you, since this is not
 a "domain does not exist" problem right now ...]

this is what i get after i mail "questions@freebsd.org" ...
i think it is the a problem with "undisclosed recipients",
but is this my problem?  or sendmails problem?  or whose?

i just "cat | sendmail -f mail@me.com questions@freebsd.org"
with a Subject header in the text file.  but that should be
"legal", or not?

You will have to install the linux_base port which replaces the
linux_lib port.  I do not know how difficult it would be to install
linux_base on a FBSD 3.1 system however. I am sure you will have to at
least update your bsd.port.mk files.

alright, I got on #freebsd on the Undernet (IRC) and
tried getting help.  I was told to just try using user
PPP, that it was easier to set up than kernel and
should fill my needs for the moment.  Needs=just to
get an internet connection of some sort going.  I
configured the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file to what I needed
it to be.  When I do ppp from the command line and
then type term , my system locks up.  And when it
locks, it appears to delete the file /etc/ppp/ppp.conf
Why is that?  I keep having to refer back to windows
to get help.  What can I do to get my connection
going? and why does my system lock when i do ppp and
then term ?  I am running FreeBSD 4.0 .  I would
appreciate any help.  Thank you.

Well, can I package your insights and send in a patch till sunday? Is
that okay with you?

However, I am trying a different approach. I am building separate
ports for the latest ACE and JX. Besides, I am considering writing
additional ports for each lib written with the jx x11-toolkits, if
that can be acomplished.

This way I will be able to keep the latest libraries available without
touching codecrusader. Furthermore, this will enable other JX and ACE
dependent ports to be easily built. This might get done real soon if
everybody keeps working this fast. :)

You need to add support for POSIX real-time scheduling to your
kernel. This means you add the lines:
options         P1003_1B
options         _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
options         _KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L
to your kernel and rebuild.

I can't really tell you anything about upgrading with sysinstall
other than it is good for upgrading when the major version is the
same, and bad otherwise.

As for cvsup, this is the normal way to do it. If you're familiar
with 'make world' and friends, this will make it easier. _BUT_
regardless of what you do or don't know, you need to read the file

That will work only if you already have the first character uniquely. To
get a space, put a backslash before it. That is, type

/users/ftp/incoming/\ 

(with a space at the end) and hit ESC twice and the entry should
complete (or with bash or tcsh, hit tab, or type the whole thing out
explicitly backslashing each space).

Alright, I really need some help.  I've gotten this
far: I've installed FreeBSD 4.0, I have done a few
other things, and I have edited /etc/ppp/ppp.conf to
how I need it to be.  Then I did the following:
# ppp
Working in interactive mode
Using interface: tun0
ppp ON> term
and at this point my system locks to were I can do
absolutely nothing.
Any help would be appreciated.
                             Thanks
                                  Jason

It is all right with me but I'm not the maintainer I just was
interested in using it. I had been stopped by the Makefile line 172
error until I saw PR 15481 and the patch-ac fix jumped out at me. That
lets the port make work on both 3.4 and 4.0.

I think that ACE needs to be done separately. At least there are
advantages in having a separate version. The main advantage being that
they are using version 5.0.2 in Code Crusader but the latest version
on Schmidt's site is 5.1. The dialog on comp.soft-sys.ace is mostly on
5.1. I don't know about the others. It depends on the packaging from
Lindal and New Planet Sotware (NPS). I think it will be difficult to
split something out when the tarballs from NPS have everything
included. Creating a new package(s) would be conterproductive if
someone does a "pkg_version -c" and finds out that codecrusader.2.1.5
is out and then, in a clueless moment, does a make, pkg_delete -f
codecrusader-2.1.4, and make install, which removes your work. The
libraries and such are all links to the equivalent files in your
JX-1.5.3 tree.

I wasn't going to upgrade my main FreeBSD system to 4.x until I had
the ability to build codecrusader. I hate figuring out what is
required on the current setup and then have to change the mental
working dictionary when I use the older system. The first build
required an awesome amount of wall clock time. Once that was done, a
library could be upgraded with out doing too much to the current
setup. The make only builds what is out of date and it looks at each
library. Some of their stuff is in CVS and with a little work, you
could stay up todate that way.

The other thing is to get ctags working. Right now, I want to learn
how to take my diff's and create a patch. I have some reading to do.
That comes first :).

Regards,

Kent

That s what you have to do

1) Login as su or root
2) Type in the following command "/usr/libexec/locate.updatedb"

This will update your locate db.

In the FreeBSD 4.0 getpass(3) it says:

     The password may be up to _PASSWORD_LEN (currently 128) characters in
     length.  Any additional characters and the terminating newline
     character are discarded.

The date on that man page is June 4, 1993.

No, but I had almost the same problems some time ago. The difference is that
I was tracking 3.4-stable rather than 4.x
But the same symptoms, something went wrong with /bin/test during
installworld and then half the programs in /bin would core dump as soon as I
tried to run them. (Including /bin/sh and /bin/csh)
I fixed it by booting with a fixit-disk and copied all the files from the
/bin directory on my 3.2-CD to my /bin, nuked /usr/obj and finally did a
new make world.
At the time I put it down to flaky hardware (or something) and I have 
(thankfully) not seen it again.

It was not correct what I said the problem is only with the ICMP protocol
and not with TCP and UDP. And it could be with PING only I don't known how
to test ICMP with anything other than PING.

I have FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE IPNAT l3.3.11 set up to act as a router. 

But I still have one problem. When an ICMP (PING) connection is established
from a computer on my LAN to an IP on the Internet, no other ICMP (PING)
connection can by made from any other computer on my LAN (including the
router self) to the same IP on the Internet. Until the created rule in the
"List of active sessions:" in the IPNAT -l list is removed.

My IPNAT config is 

map ed1 192.168.0.0/24 -> 0/32 proxy port ftp ftp/tcp
map ed1 192.168.0.0/24 -> 0/32 portmap tcp/udp 10000:60000
map ed1 192.168.0.0/24 -> 0/32

Firewall completely opened for testing.

Please wrap lines at 70 characters.

See http://www.apache.org/ for instructions on how to configure
apache websites.  You can install apache from the ports collection
it's in /usr/ports/www/

I have just burned the 4.0-RELEASE to CDR and find that there is no NIC
support listed for the 3C509 NIC.   I'm not sure where to search for
possible late-days new drivers.   Could someone point me in the right
direction please?  I currently run 3.3-R, but I don't imagine the drivers
are likely to be swappable (?)

TIA, Erik

Thre are couple of solutions to this problem

1) Purchase An Apache Book from O'Reilly and read it
2) Goto the www.apache.org and read it 
3) Or pay someone to set it up for you

Then find a ISP that will host your web server..

Any problems you encoutnter during this process of setting and configuring a
web server the mailing list will be glad to help you.

I did, and that solved the problem.  Thanks.

When I initially built the port I answered with all the default 
answers.  That was my mistake!

No, I don't misunderstand trade mark law.  You can use Apple as a trade
mark for selling computers or music, and you can use Computer as a trade
mark for selling apples.  You can't, however, successfully reserve the
right to exclusively use Apple for selling apples, or Computer for
selling computers, or Music for selling music, or BSD for selling BSD.
If this were allowed, pretty soon we would be paying royalties just for
using English.

Whoops!  I should have mentioned that there is a port/package of the

Hi! 
 
I have had some problems with FreeBSD (sorry to say this). To make a 
long story short, i made a benchmarking test on a program (a kind of 
server) on my computer, a Pentium III 450, 128MB ram (non-ecc). Well, 
the benchmarking program was to test if the program I had written could 
handle much load (and not crash). So, the benchmarking program opened 
10000-20000 connections (if the kernel hadn't paniced at this point it 
would have opened more). 
 
The kernel said that there was a page fault (#12) in kernel mode. Well, 
since I had done some experiments (and compiled the kernel with 
MaxUsers >512 just to test ;P), I thought that this was it. I 
recompiled it, MaxUsers 256. Now it says that there isn't enough 
NMBCLUSTERS (or something like that). Well, i recompiled it. It told me 
to raise MaxUsers, so I did, to 512. (If I set it >512 it gives me a 
warning.)  
It still says that it is out of NMBLUSTERS. And then it reboots. Okay, 
the kernel runs out of something. But why panic? Why don't kill the 
process causing it? Why panic? There must be some way to fix it.. I 
hope at least... =) 
 
Well, no computer is made for accepting 20000 connections/second (not a 
PIII 450 at least), but it is said that FreeBSD can handle load that 
would crush other systems... yeah right.. my father's win95 computer 
dosen't crash if I do the same test on it. 
 
The kernel dosen't complain at startup or anything, so there dosen't 
seem to be any conflict... (it complained one time when it said that my 
FPU wasn't available in kernel mode, but a reboot fixed it). 
 
I would be very thankful if someone knows why this happens. If anyone 
have a kernel config file that you know works, mail me... if that is 
the problem. And btw, it's FreeBSD 3.4.. maybe the problem is fixed in 
4.0?

Subject: Need help getting USB to work on my laptop
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

System Details:

Laptop - AMS Roadster 151CT (OEM: Mitac 5033)
	Intel Triton 430TX chipset
	AMD K6-2/333 MHz CPU, 64 MB RAM, 6.0 GB toshiba HD
	BIOS: SystemSoft BIOS v1.20 (this is the latest version available from the 
website)

OS: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE (cvsupped just this evening)

OK, here's the problem:

I'm trying to get USB going on this laptop.  I'd like to be able to plug in 
a USB mouse to the thing, as well as using an aue driver-based Ethernet 
adapter (specifically, the D-Link DSB650TX) with this machine.

I inserted the usb lines exactly as described in LINT, and 
recompiled.  Everything compiled allright.  However, when I reboot the 
system, I get this:

uhci0:  irq 0 at device 1.2 on pci0
uhci0: Invalid irq 0
uhci0: Please switch on USB support and switch PNP-OS to 'No' in BIOS

Hrm.  The BIOS does *not* have an "enable/disable USB" option, nor does it 
have any options to assign I/O, IRQ, etc.  Neither does my BIOS have an 
"enable/disable PnP" option.  (Yes, SystemSoft BIOS sucks.  Sigh.)

On a hunch I popped in a spare laptop hard drive I had lying around, and 
installed a fresh 3.4-RELEASE on to it.  Added USB into a kernel config 
file and compiled.  This time, I get something even worse: the machine 
panic's, does not even boot up!

Needless to say, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 see the USB port fine.  I can 
plug in my USB mouse and happily use it, and I can use the USB ethernet 
under Win98, with the drivers supplied by D-link.  And when I check the 
Device manager thingie, the USB port *does* have an IRQ assigned to it -- 
IRQ 9.  (Nothing else is using IRQ 9, and there appear to be no other IRQ 
conflicts.)  Again, everything works fine in Windows-land.

Anybody have any ideas?  Or am I SOL? :(

Any help gratefully appreciated.  Please reply to me directly, and/or to 
freebsd-stable.  Thanks!

Both BSD and FreeBSD are registered trademarks:

Amusingly enough, there is also a completely different BSD trademark:

Hi!

First you need a webserver Program. Take ROXEN (www.roxen.com) as it's
very comfortable to manage. Then install it, and connect to your
administration port. It's very simple. For any further questions, ask me.

Why not 80? A normal Terminal (I'm currently on a VT220) has got 80
Chars/Line I think. But that's OT now.

Let him try roxen. It's much more confortable. In APACHE you have to edit
your config files manually.

This smells like FUD to me.  I guess user PPP's manpage says this for a
reason:

         allow user[s] logname...
             By default, only user id 0 is allowed access to ppp. If this com-
             mand is used, all of the listed users are allowed access to the
             section in which the ``allow users'' command is found.  The
             `default' section is always checked first (even though it is only
             ever automatically loaded at startup).  Each successive ``allow
             users'' command overrides the previous one, so it's possible to
             allow users access to everything except a given label by specify-
             ing default users in the `default' section, and then specifying a
             new user list for that label.

             If user `*' is specified, access is allowed to all users.

Also, please send mail in plain text next time, HTML mail is not
appreciated by many people.

Dear FreeBSDers,

I tried to make -STABLE releases unsuccessfully in the past few days.
I performed those operations under FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE (make world as
of 2 April 2000).

As to making the 4.0-STABLE Release, I issued the following command:
make -j32 release CHROOTDIR=3D/usr/myjunk/my4.0-stable
BUILDNAME=3D4.0-STABLE RELEASETAG=3DRELENG_4 CVSROOT=3D/usr/home/ncvs

The operation took about three hours; no disc{1,2} directories were
created; rather, in the log I found these errors:


mtree: /R/stage/trees/bin/: No such file or directory

*** Error code 2

Has any of you met similar errors ? What am I missing ?

Thanks in advance for any tip and advice.

I got a usb modem,
messages.0.gz:Apr  7 18:39:30 rodia /kernel: ugen2: STMicroelectronics USB
Communicator, rev 1.00/1.01, addr 6   

It is made by SmartLink.

I am running 4.0-RELEASE.

Question: how do I use it ?  there is no /dev/umodem on the system,
kldload umodem works, but then what ?

Just in case, I added some lines to /etc/usbd.conf:
#usbd: attach event at 955150550.138110000, USB Communicator,
STMicroelectronics
:                                                                               #

You hit the nail on the head.  "make package" is using the PLIST to
determine what goes in that package.  You're going to need to edit the
PLIST, then make your package.  You'll only have to do this once, of course,
not on each machine.

Although I'm not positive, I don't think you can use "-j32" (or
-janything) while running make release. It looks like you're running
into syncronization problems (ie it's probably trying to create
/stage/trees/bin before it can create /stage, etc).

I've never run make release before myself, but since snapshots have still
been showing up on the FTP sites, I don't think making a release is
broken.

Can someone tell me where I find rsaref20.1996.tar.Z for use with SSH?


I am trying to install ssh.

Using the ports, 

/usr/ports/security/ssh -># make install

I get the following
....
===>   ssh-1.2.27 depends on file: /nonexistent - not found
===>    Verifying extract for /nonexistent in /usr/ports/security/rsaref

I have a freebsd machine at work and at home.
I find that using ports is very convenient, but cannot use it at work since the
machine is behind a proxy/firewall.

Can someone tell me if it is possible to make modifications (?/etc/make.conf?)
to allow ports to work behind a firewall?

Thanks

"fetch" works with a proxy server ("man fetch"). 
If you have an http proxy server, use
export HTTP_PROXY=PROXY.IP.ADDRESS:PORT
and then "make install" should work.

70 allows a few levels of ">" quote characters without lines being too
long for an 80 character terminal.  But wrapping at 80 is still better
than not wrapping at all.

(Note: Every user of IDA controllers on FreeBSD please read :) )

Hi, I would have released this info 2 weeks ago, but my laptop with all my
personal info and mails were stolen from me, and as you know, real men do do
backup - until now! :)

I had a talk with the Danish Compaq Storage representative, after
complaining about the lack of support for configuring Smart-2 controllers in
non-Compaq equipment.

He told me that the reason for this is, that Compaq politics doesn´t allow
for sale of Compaq RAID storage for use in non-Compaq systems. He also told
me, that he was a firm believer that this would change within 6 months
(according to things he heard internally), thereby solving our problem with
configuring the controllers.
Now as you will find on my website, older controller can be configured in
non-Compaq systems (link below).

Now I´ve been encouraging people to submit their systems to me, so that I
can publish them on my website, and thereby show my Compaq friends that we
really like their hardware :)
Because of the loss of my laptop I´ve lost all mails from you guys running
the hardware out there, before I had time to update the website.

Please, if you run a FreeBSD system on a Compaq RAID controller, fill out
the form on http://seeberg.dk/freebsd/idaraid

I then promise that I will set the time off, that it takes to test 4.0 on my
RAID controller, and update the website with all the new features
implemented in BSD 4.0R.

Try 4.0, and you'll want to raise NMBCLUSTERS in your kernel config
file, for this kind of test I would start at 57600 and go up until
the panics stop.  It would have been more helpful if you had supplied
the amount of memory the system is configured with, there may just
not be enough ram for you to have that many connections open.

... stupid question, but does it matter which slot you put the CPU in?  I
put it in the one that happens to say CPU2, and it boots and all, but am
wondering if that could cause problems?  I put it there so that it
would/will be easy to throw in a second one at a later date ...

Hi Guy's, howzit going?

I'm batteling with natd BIG time, I have followed docs on the web and the 
man pages and still can't seem to get it right.

Basically I'm using my FreeBSD box to dial into my isp.
In my FreeBSD box I have a LAN card (ed0), with an IP of 
10.0.0.1/255.255.255.0, which goes to my LAN running IP's 10.0.0.2, 
10.0.0.3.

I want to allow 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3 onto the Internet.
I have configured pppd for normal dial-up into my isp and that is working 
100%
Here are the options I have configured after a default install of FreeBSD 
4.0:

Kernel
------

options IPFIREWALL
options IPDIVERT

/etc/rc.local
-------------

natd -interface ed0
ipfw -f flush
ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ed0
ipfw pass all from any to any

I have Squid 2.2STABLE5 setup on the box too, and all the workstations
can surf the net fine if I tell IE to use squid as a proxy, but I prefer 
to use masqing/natd for irc/mail etc.

I have setup IP masqing in Linux before and it has worked brilliantly, 
but I just can't seem to find what I'm doing wrong in FreeBSD. :(

Please help if you can.
Thanx :)

Regards
Dave Wilson

Is it a good idea for the average user to enable the MD5 option in the
kernel?  I'm just wondering if it's one of those "if you needed it,
you'd know it" options, or if my system will be considerably less secure
without it?  Does removing it make the kernel any smaller?

When you're using ppp, it's usually not a good idea to use natd.

What you should do is, start ppp with the "-auto" parameter.
That will make it act like a gateway. The next thing to do is
to setup the other computers to have their gateway set to
10.0.0.1.

If they are FreeBSD, then, put this line in /etc/rc.conf:
defaultrouter="10.0.0.1"

But, if they are windows:
1. Right-click network neighborhood
2. Click properties
3. Click on tcp/ip for the nic card.
4. Click properties
5. Click the tab labeled Gateway
6. Type in 10.0.0.1
7. Click add
8. Click ok
9. Click ok

Hope this helps.

It is 8 characters only because you are using DES encryption.
MD5 supports more characters.

Read:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/crypt.html

It will also explain somewhat how to change to MD5.
Be aware that if you change encryption, all you're users will
have to change their password!

Actually, it's been enabled standard for a good while anyway (at
least in 4.0). In other words, it's included whether you want to or
not. Just lately its name was removed from LINT in order to avoid
confusion. As for 3.X, I don't think it's always there but if it's
so good that they made it mandatory in 4.0, I'd use it...

Hi-

Actually, you want to:

* Make sure gateway_enable="YES" is present in your /etc/rc.conf
* run ppp -nat -auto 

ppp -auto will make FreeBSD dial out on demand, but it will not enable
Network Address Translation.

That would be more hardware specific and straight out of the BP6 manual "A
single Socket 370 processor can be installed in either PGA 370 socket, and
no specific boot processor socket needs to be selected."

I second Martin Welk's message and suggest you take a look at Netatalk.
After compiling in NETATALK support in the kernel (a breeze) and installing
the netatalk port, I just read the documentation that came with the port and
got it running in a couple of minutes. It's really that easy...

Now all the Macs in our company can see the Macintosh 'shares' I've setup on
FreeBSD. I've put Macintosh documents and applications on the FreeBSD
machine and I've had no problems lauching and using them.

If FreeBSD is "shutdown" improperly due to a power failure, is there
anything I have to do upon the next reboot? This happened last night, and
upon reboot fsck ran on all partitions because they were not cleanly
unmounted. But is there anything else I should do manually?

What does your procmail rule look like? I originally had one, which worked
with a Linux distribution, that had a / at the end of each mailbox. With
FreeBSD that didn't work; procmail thought it was a directory, not a file
(mailboxes are really just long files). Perhaps check that. Also, does your
directory structure even exist? Try mkdir ~/Mail, cd into it and then touch
Inbox. See if that helps. Maybe also try this line in your .muttrc: set
folder=3D~/Mail

You're using mutt in XWindows, right? If so I've probably got the answer:
you need a ~/.bashrc (assuming you're using bash) file. Login windows read
~/.profile, which is why export TERM=3Dxterm-color will give you a colorized
mutt login window. But for X you need to put that same line in a file called
=2Ebashrc. Then you'll be all set.

My problem is this : I want to allow a user to execute
a file normally owned by root. I hope to have the user do all this from
a shell batch file.
I want them to be able to restart squid after they have changed a config
file. I have created a group localadmins and added the user to the group
localadmins I then chown :localadmins squid
and now the group localadmins own squid. When I log on as this user and
try to restart squid it fails I have fooled around with permissions even
assigned 777 to squid with no luck.  
Any suggestions would be helpfull I have searched the archives and man
group. What am I missing?

Dear FreeBSDers,

I tried to make a 3-STABLE Release this afternoon as per the
suggestions I had kindly received from the list (ie NO -j option).

Alas, this time I found the following errors:

=3D=3D=3D> lib/../secure/lib/libcrypt
cd /usr/src/secure/lib/libcrypt ; make install
DESTDIR=3D/R/stage/trees/des SHARED=3Dcopies
install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444   libdescrypt.a
/R/stage/trees/des/usr/lib
install: /R/stage/trees/des/usr/lib: No such file or directory

*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/release.




The fault seems to be caused by the crypto stuff. Incidentally, I last
downloaded the crypto sources (secure-cvs-supfile, form the "internat"
server) just this afternoon right before beginning to make release.

Has any of you met these errors ? What I missing now ?

Many thanks in advance for any tip and advice.

Best regards,
Salvo

My line number for the extra space in the
ports/devel/codecrusader/patches patch-ac line number was wrong. Mr.
Kanter tried to find it and noticed that line 87-88 were similar to
what I was talking about. It turns out that in the lines 87-88

-       @mkdir ${JCC} ${JCC}/ctags
+       @mkdir ${JCC}

that there is no space after the - in the first line but there is a
space after the + in the second line. If you edit patch-ac with vi and
space over the minus, you jump to the "@". That doesn't happen on the
line with the "+". I removed the space after the + and could do a port
build of codecrusader on my Freebsd 3.4 system. I had previously
checked that bison was installed on both systems. The define changes
are required before ACE 5.0.2 will compile on 4.0.

Note: A cut and paste into the email fills with spaces.

I wasn't getting this error on my 5.0-current system, so I did not need to
make this change.

Nice follow up ;-)  I building the codecrusader port on my box at
home as I write this.  It's gotten further than before, so I'm rather
optimistic ...

I think we need this in the Makefile:

USE_BISON=	yes

I'll see what happens after my build ...  Good work!!!

this is a new one for me. I am running gimp on a FreeBSD box(3.3) and
when I double click a color and go to the "Color selection " screen, my
"crosshair" color select lines write to the screen. Another words if
I am moving the mouse around in the color area is paints it black. (it
shows the color being selected in that box next to the OK button.
The same thing happens if I try to use "Guides", they will write to the
screen (but not the image (thank god) and it'll look like a bunch of
black lines.
I do have a 3dfx card.

It's just annoying, that's all. And other Image programs run fine , with
their own color selection screen.

Thanks,
Chris

I am having this strange problem when trying to boot with the kern.flp image
on my Compaq Pressario computer.  When I try to boot from the disk the
computer starts to read the floppy, but then the screen stays black and that
is as far as it gets.  If I try the exact same disk on any one of my other
machines it works fine.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you
very much.

Is the floppy drive broken?

Have you tried another floppy like a MS-DOS, Windows boot disk, or
Linux boot floppy?

A setuid bit? See 'man chmod' and look at '4000' in the MODES
section.

You run root owned binaries all of the time, ls, more, rm, etc. Pretty
much all of the system binaries are root owned. This gives no special
permissions to the user executing them.

I think the permissions and ownership you are looking for on your
squid start-up script are,

  # chown root:localadmins squid
  # chmod 4750 squid

Having a separate port for ACE sounds good, but remmeber that codecrusader
uses a small subset of ACE libraries and users may balk if codecrusader
builds the full ACE package.  It may be that we could have multiple ACE
ports, one building the entire package, and then smaller ports that build
a subset.

But why wrap the lines? All programs do that automatically, I think.
I'm using pine for my mails, and it does this automatically.

But please correct me, if I'm wrong.

Ok gang... here's the delivery as I promised. I've split up the info for
both 4.0 and 5.0 versions. I've tested both of these, and source
references are in the text. I hope this helps owners of the SB Live!
cards. I'm sending these to the webmasters of http://www.defcon1.org and
http://defcon1.erudition.net for posting in case anyone needs them at a

Support for Your SBLive! Sound Card on FreeBSD 4.0



 First, I'd like to thank Luigi Rizzo and Cameron Grant for cranking
out a

working pcm sound driver that supports the SB LIVE!, as well as Seigo

Tanimura for documenting their work in the pcm man page. Thanks guys!

 Second, thanks to Martin Miskin, Walter Brameld, and Frank for
spanking

me on the mailing lists. My first HOWTO for the SB Live should not
have had any

parts assumed. I was running 5.0-current and assumed that the pcm driver

would be about the same since the 5.0 branch from 4.0 was so recent.
This

HOWTO is strictly for FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE (if you run -stable, YMMV)
and

most of it was documented by Walter. I've installed 4.0-R just to

test the sound card to verify it works here too. Walter, thanks for
the

input!

Now, on to the good stuff...

1) Make sure you have source files on your hard drive. Then:

cd /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci

Now add a few files to our present working directory that we just changed

to. Fetch the two files, emu10k1.c and emu10k1.h from:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/

2) Edit emu10k1.c. Look for the following line (somewhere around line
1163):

codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, NULL, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

Remove the NULL entry. It should now say:

codec = ac97_create(dev, sc, emu_rdcd, emu_wrcd);

3) Place these files in /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci. You may also wish

to keep a backup so your first CVSUP doesn't flush them down the

toilet.

4) Edit /usr/src/sys/conf/files and insert the following line in the

appropriate place (alphabetically, around line 980):

dev/sound/pci/emu10k1.c optional pcm pci

5) Edit your kernel config file and make sure it has the following two

devices:

device pcm

device pci

6) Recompile your kernel and reboot. dmesg should show the following:

pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 10 at device 9.0
on pci0

pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1102, dev=0x7002) at 9.1

Cat /dev/sndstat should show:

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr 7 2000 13:12:21

Installed devices:

pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> at io 0xe400 irq 10 (1p/0r channels
duplex)

or something similar, io and irq may vary.

7) Finally, make the sound device in your /dev directory:

/dev/MAKEDEV snd0

8) Reboot.

9) Start your favorite audio application. It's time to rock and roll.

Some people have reported "DAC not ready" errors and/or problems with
the

AC_97 references. This HOWTO was tested on a clean ftp install of 4.0-R
on

todays date, April 8, 2000. Good Luck with your system(s)!

   Title






Support
for your SB Live! Sound Card in FreeBSD 5.0 (April 7,2000)



This work is documented and tested
from source code which was updated (via cvsup) on April 6, 2000. You can
start the process by adding support in your kernel for devices pcm. Detailed
info on building custom kernels can be found at

http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html

So you can see what little I added
to my kernel, here is my sound support:

               
device pcm

               
device pci

The last line is a generic driver
required so that the programs we use will work with PCI configuration registers.
The SB Live! cards are PCI. Make sure you have this device option in the
kernel. No, I'm no wiz on this topic. I just pulled that from the first
line of "man pci" to state its purpose. Now that we've got support in the
kernel, we can complete rebuilding the kernel as needed. Let's move on
to making our audio device.

               
cd /dev

This is where I'm a little questionable
to the exact step of "what to do". I had older legacy devices working in
here before i got to this point. If I remember correctly, i think I did:

           
./MAKEDEV snd0

to get my audio device made. In
my /dev directory, I do have the following which should help you in what
to look for:

           
kashmir# ls -la /dev/audio*

           
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Feb 21 11:05 /dev/audio -> audio0

           
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 4 Feb 21 11:05 /dev/audio0

           
kashmir# ls -la /dev/dsp*

           
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Feb 21 11:05 /dev/dsp -> dsp0

           
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 3 Apr 6 11:52 /dev/dsp0

           
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 5 Feb 21 11:05 /dev/dspW -> dspW0

           
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 5 Feb 21 11:05 /dev/dsp

           
kashmir# cat sndstat

           
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr 6 2000 10:54:54

           
Installed devices:

           
pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> at io 0xdc00 irq 11 (1p/0r channels duplex)

Now we need to check a file in
the sound driver. Make sure that the SB Live! chipset is available to the
pcm driver. Look in the file:

           
/usr/src/sys/conf/files

by making sure that the line

           
dev/sound/pci/emu10k1.c optional pcm pci

is NOT commented out in
the file. OK. Save the file to the same name that you opened it as. And
reboot!

Upon rebooting, watch your dmesg
output. You should see something similar to:

           
pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0xdc00-0xdc1f irq 11 at device 12.0 on
pci0

           
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1102, dev=0x7002) at 12.1

If it went too fast, you can always
do a

           
/sbin/dmesg | grep pc or /sbin/dmesg | grep
pcm

The latter will narrow down your
report if you have other PCI devices.

Now put it to the test. Fire up
your favorite audio application and crank up the music loud enough to upset
the neighbors.

Hi Guys;

I have been following Kelly's instruction very closely I think, to setup =
com2 on FreeBSD 3.1 box to enable me to dial into the server on a =
courier sportster 33.6 and or cardinal 33.6 - both are external modems =
trying each at a time. It seems I have covered lots of grounds in the =
past couple of weeks to get to where I am now but the problem remains it =
seems "Carrier Detect" or something close to that. On either of the =
modems, CD and TR are not lighting up. I had previously used both modems =
on PM2 without problem. They have also been tested by dialing out into =
another system. Now I want any of them to receive call(s) for me just as =
they did on PM2 ...:)

I have done a ps ax with these results:

(1) 0:00.01 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv1
(2) 0:00.01 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv2

(3) 0:00.01 /usr/libexec/getty std.57600

I have no idea how "Pc ttyv1 and ttyv2" on lines 1 and 2 got in there. I =
have attached /etc/gettytab and /etc/ttys files if a kind GURU can look =
at these for me for possible conflict I am not able to see..

Thanks Guys ..

Freddy,
You're wrong. I'm using Netscape mail. If the sender doesn't set the
lines to wrap then it goes off the screen and i have to follow the
text out there... if I'm interested in reading it. For those with text
mail apps, it's even more of a pain in the ass. With text, you have to
chase each line out there. It's not folks being picky. Consider it as
a gesture of them pointing you in the direction of what's understood
as common courtesy. 
Regards, 
Otter
p.s. in case you're wondering, mine's set to 70

Hi!

No, AFAIK not. Well, perhaps you should kill old PID files, because some
programs say, that they have already been started, but they just find
their old PID file.

Why not turn on line wrapping in Netscape? It's in Edit/Preferences/
Mail&Newsgroups/Messages. Allows you to specify the column to 
wrap the lines. Not that I use Netscape mail, I use KMail and it also 
does line wrapping at whatever column you specify.

The only thing you may consider is checking the integrity of any databases 
you might have been running (if any).  Other than that...I can't think of 
anything else you'd have to do.

it's personal preference. some of the stuff i work with looks wrong if
i don't have it set like that. i get paid to work. if everyone wraps
them at 70-80, i won't have to worry about the non-work related email
(such as this).

I'd recommend manually installing a backup power supply. You can get
an APC 300 here, retail, for about $80. Not a bad investment...

Hello.

When I enter a terminal in ppp (FreeBSD 4.0 Release), my modem echo lags
my input by one character.  So, like, when I type atdt, I will only see
atd until I press another character, which I won't see until I type the
next one...

Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

Thanks,

Ryan Shannon

PS - Please make sure I receive a copy of your reply, I'm not on the

A similar thread has just happened on -stable, please let's not go there
again.  I'll just say two things, if you disagree please mail me and NOT
the list.  1, what you say is not a safe assumption.  2, my mail window
is 120 characters wide, so lines are wrapped at that width, and I find
~80 character lines much easier to read than 120 character ones.

Does FreeBSD support the Epson Stylus Photo 700 at its full resolution of
1440 x 720 (parallel not USB)?  Any other resolution?

Someone asked a similar question recently. The gimp-print project was
initially set up to support these printers (including the stylus photo
700), and they seem to support 1440 and 720 dpi. You should be able to
use it from gimp. I've never used it, but the page says

   At this point, I prefer the output of my driver in many ways to the  
   output of the Windows driver. I consider the color fidelity and tonal 
   characteristics to be better, at the expense of increased graininess 
   with my driver (part of what the Windows driver appears to do is avoid
   printing altogether in areas where grain is likely to show up).      

They have a Ghostscript driver too.

I am rather disturbed to see that the FreeBSD 3.5 CDROM set I had
been led to believe would be the next thing I would see on my
subscription has been cancelled,and instead I have the "definite
`dot oh' release aimed at developers" of 4.0,which I am not prepared
to use though I would quite probably have found use for a 3.5 CDROM
set.

It looks like bleeding-edge oriented squeaky wheels have gotten too
much grease.I trusted and preferred the announcements that subscriptions
would skip 4.0 and didn't learn that things would not be the way I
wanted until you sent me 4.0.

For that matter,if there are still plans for a version 3.6,
I would be annoyed to see it left out of my CDROM subscription.
I didn't start using 2.2.x until 2.2.5,and I don't expect to
install 4.x until 4.2.

Whatever the feedback suppliers you had before said,
a 3.5 CDROM is something I want...a 4.0 CDROM I expect
will be a spacer on the shelf.

Hi,

please cc any replies to m.bayliss@excite.com - thanks

When trying to "make" xpm it prompts me for a "file to patch".

Anybody know what this is asking me for.  Or is there some documentation out
there that I haven't found.


Matt

Really strange. Exactly at what point in the boot process does it
stop? Do you get the "spiny-things" first? Is it at the first stage
boot or at the boot loader?

Anyway, if you can boot the CDROM, it sounds like you have a workaround.

Appeciate some advice on how to get my print output working again.

Running 3.3. Have an Epson Stylus 850 Injet printer that was working in
ascii mode. That is, I could print from emacs with no difficulty. Worked
just fine but I could not leave well enough alone .

Decided it would be good to get postscript printing working.

It now appears that information is not getting to the spooler.


1. installed apsfilter.

2. ran the test protocol and got a beautiful tiger printout; probably used
up half and ink cartride :-)

3. finished the setup and decided to first test ascii

could not print from the buffer in emacs.

as root, 
  lpd
  lpc up lp1 lp2 lp3 lp4 lp5
    these are the printers in /etc/printcap

    did the above in response to getting messages that printers
    were not running.

4.  If I try and print from emacs the bottom of the screen says, 
    Spooling... done
       the output of lpq is blank so there is no pending job
              > lpq
              no entries 

    If I try from the command line
       lptest 20 5 |lpr
           [as in Greg's book]
       nothing happens, no error message, nada.

    
    If I go to Netscape and save a page using save as page.ps and then 
    try 
      lpr page.ps
      again, nothing

My /etc/printcap follows my name.  It was created by apsfilter.

Advice appreciated.

Thanks
jeff

Assuming all your users are like IT people and you want a group of people (like
the IT guys in your building) to restart squid or restart apache you should
install "sudo"

http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/ or install sudo from the ports

Windows 98 can work together with FreeBSD so you can have a dual partition
But before you begin make sure  you have backed up all your work in Windows

and when  you install FreeBSD make sure you specify "booteasy" as your boot
manager

Does it say "Keyboard: No"?  If so, press a key right when it starts up, and
type '-h' at the "boot:" prompt and press Enter.

Ever since I upgraded to 4.0 I've been getting error messages like the
following:

Apr  9 00:14:01 poseidon ntpd[159]: kernel pll status change 2041

What does it mean? 

I've got 4.0-S from a week or so ago running on a P3-600, Asus P3B-F
Mboard.

Found an error message after enabling a log file.

> pwd
/var/spool/lpd/uniprint--auto-color

> tail log | strings 
/usr/local/apsfilter/filter/aps-uniprint--auto-color: cannot create
    /dev/console: permission denied  

Any thoughts on what this might mean?

Thanks

earlier note
--------
Appeciate some advice on how to get my print output working again.

Running 3.3. Have an Epson Stylus 850 Injet printer that was working in
ascii mode. That is, I could print from emacs with no difficulty. Worked
just fine but I could not leave well enough alone .

Decided it would be good to get postscript printing working.

It now appears that information is not getting to the spooler.


1. installed apsfilter.

2. ran the test protocol and got a beautiful tiger printout; probably used
up half and ink cartride :-)

3. finished the setup and decided to first test ascii

could not print from the buffer in emacs.

as root, 
  lpd
  lpc up lp1 lp2 lp3 lp4 lp5
    these are the printers in /etc/printcap

    did the above in response to getting messages that printers
    were not running.

4.  If I try and print from emacs the bottom of the screen says, 
    Spooling... done
       the output of lpq is blank so there is no pending job
              > lpq
              no entries 

    If I try from the command line
       lptest 20 5 |lpr
           [as in Greg's book]
       nothing happens, no error message, nada.

    
    If I go to Netscape and save a page using save as page.ps and then 
    try 
      lpr page.ps
      again, nothing

My /etc/printcap follows my name.  It was created by apsfilter.

Advice appreciated.

Thanks
jeff

Yes, you can all you have to do is :-

Use your Windows 95 Magic boot disk. Run "Fdisk" press 4 to display the
Partitions. 

Now choose 3 to delete the partitions and then choose "4" this will delete your
non dos partiton (BSD). 

Now PRess ESC to exit.

Now you must retore your masterboot record
This can be done with fidsk. IN the command prompt type in "fdisk /mbr" this
will restore your master boot record.

I am trying to do a network install with a 3c509 and cable modem.  Ethernet
is not one of the options when I request ftp install.  Do I have to remove
the pnp feature and pre set i/o and irq?
