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? Could we see the ifconfig(8) for the interfaces, the natd(8) command line and config file (if it exists), and your firewall rules (`ipfw show`)? -- Crist J.

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?

It all depends on the nature of the file writes and size of the file.
