You want natd to alias packets over ppp0. If you thing about it, it should make sense. Therefore just change 'via ed0' to 'via ppp0'. Also unless you have a static ip address it might be best to include a -dynamic switch to natd to save having to restart it every time you dial. So you'll want to use 'natd -dynamic -n ppp0'. That should get you started.

You -REALLY- don't want to do this in sendmail (or any other Mail Transfer Agent.) It should always correctly identify itself as your host in your domain. And most knowlegable email gurus agree that header rewriting is generally a Bad Idea. (Some claim it is downright evil.) In particular, I suspect that BigFoot.com would object strongly to your machine masquerading as one of theirs... And even if they never find out; it is likely that the forgery would be detected by some of the more sophisticated forgery/SPAM detection setups. This would lead to automatic complaints to your ISP, or to your messages simply being discarded as they pass through the filtered sites. Not to mention how badly you'd lose if you ever added another local user that -didn't- use bigfoot.com... > [Actually, I now seem to have got around this problem, but I'm not sure if > my solution is the right one: > > I've set the FROM and REPLYTO environment variables to contain my 'real' > online email address, and for double paranoia, I've also included the > same address in the From: header in my ~dm/.elm/elmheaders file. > > This /seems/ to have got around my mixture of personalities ;-) ] You've hit on the correct approach - configure your Mail User Agent(s) to insert a correct Reply-to: header. If you also configure it to set From: to a non-local address, you should probably make sure that it adds a Sender: header with your local address. (IIRC the RFCs are a bit vague on this particular situation; but it seems to fit within the usage of Sender; and it should help bypass filters that might otherwise classify your messages as forgeries.) > My other problem is that I don't seem able to send mail from the localhost > to either of my online incarnations (dmarsh@zetnet.. or drmarsh@bigfoot..) > In either case, the message is bounced back. > > I suspect that this may be because I have included some wrong information > in my .mc file, which I have included below (obviously this will be > crucial in solving my first problem anyway). > > I suspect that I may have made a mistake in including one or more of the > lines beginning Cw ...

It is difficult to attempt any sort of diagnosis without the specific bounce messages; but if you still have sendmail claiming to be in bigfoot.com, it would fail a reverse DNS lookup.

I do agree though, given that we have a login.conf setup some of our profile/login scripts need to be rethunk.

From: Joel Ray Holveck Reply-to: joelh@gnu.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I noticed that the syscons mouse support uses 0xD2 and 0xD3 to do its thing. (It probably uses other characters, too, but those are the ones I'm concerned about.) Under ISO-Latin-1, these overlap with two letters (which Unicode has, in a bout of creativity, named "Latin capital letter O with grave" and "Latin capital letter O with acute"). I am using Latin-1 for my current project, and was wondering if there is some wonderful method of allowing the two to coexist in peace. Any thoughts?

The best way to look for intruders is with a shotgun :) Netstat could assuredly be corrupted to ignore certain things.

A sleazy workaround is to do it once, and note the names of the troublesome numbers (which seem to be multicast names and network names) and stick them in /etc/hosts and other places. Have /etc/hosts searched before going to BIND. (see /etc/host.conf) I hope somebody knows a better method. As far as your system tools being corrupted, there are two elementary things to do as preventatives: Build the relevant tools with static linking (ON A KNOWN SECURE MACHINE), to eliminate intruder manipulation of the shared libs and/or ld.so. Then install tripwire (ports, I believe), reading its documentation thoroughly. Mostly what tripwire does is to keep crypto-grade checksums of "stuff" (configurable), in a "secure" place (like on a floppy in your desk drawer, or an old disk that is jumperable to be "readonly"). As long as you have a secure place, copies of the static binaries can go there, too. And a kernel. This much will give you honest tools, and a method of detecting tampering. Beyond that, look into kernel security levels (weak, but better than nothing), and the judicious use of the immutable and other flags to files on ufs filesystems. (man chflags). Consider [duplicate] logging to another machine (or, during an active intrusion, to floppy or to a hardcopy terminal. [called a printer these days]). DISCLAIMER: I'm not a security expert. CLAIMER: Nothing I've said will /decrease/ security. Probably. Lots of script wankers get their stuff at www.rootshell.com. Go there and see what they're using. Lately the notorious C. Meinel has published "Happy Hacking" or some such title; steal a copy or buy one from the remainder-bin at the discount bookstore, or use the library. (Avoid paying royalties). It's no good for /real/ knowledge, but it will acquaint you with what the most pestilential kind of intruder thinks is k3w1 this week.

I wanna claim that you are actually on a Linux machine as the port (for either 1.0 or 1.4.5.3) doesn't put anything in /usr/X11/lib/X11/afterstep, whereas RH Linux certainly does, besides the fact that we don't have (at least by default) a /usr/X11. Try the following things first: 1) type "which afterstep" - on FreeBSD it will give you : peloton: {3} which afterstep /usr/X11R6/bin/afterstep 2) I assume you are logging into an xsession immediately, rather than logging in and using startx (which won't make much difference) 3) create a file called .xsession in your home directory with your favorite editor that has at least the following: /usr/X11R6/bin/afterstep or whatever you found was the answer from the "which afterstep" in (1) 4) log back out 5) log back in :-) If you are using startx, instead of creating the file .xsession in your home directory, call it instead .xinitrc and you'll be set. ********************************************************* Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ If you meet a beautiful woman wearing skintight, clingy lycra, and one of the first five words out of your mouth is "Campagnolo" . . . . . you might be a cyclist.

When I dial in to the Solaris machines at work directly, I have no trouble running xterm, xemacs and all the rest of those fine X programs. I'm in the process of setting up a FreeBSD machine as my home's connection to the Internet, via my ppp account at work and it works wonderfully for simple connections: http, telnet, stuff like that. But when I try to connect from my NT machine to a Sun machine through the FreeBSD machine, the ip address of the -DISPLAY variable seems to get lost. On the home network, it's 10.0.0.1.

I need to NFS mount a portion of the linux file system onto one of my FreeBSD machines. The linux file system is of type ext2. In the line in the FreeBSD fstab that pertains to this is: #device Mntpt FS Opt Dump Pass linuxbox:/usr/share/pvcs /mnt/pvcs ext2 rw,noauto 0 0 When, on the FreeBSD box, I try to mount the linux fs, I get error msgs, which I believe are caused by the fact that ext2 is not the identifier that FreeBSD uses for the linux file system. What I need to know is what name should be used in place of ext2 that will allow me to mount the linux file system.

The usual vendor is Walnut Creek CDROM. (www.cdrom.com). I don't speak for them, but I think the answer to all those questions is "yes". Anyway, a cdrom is not really hardware. Check www.cdrom.com for their shipping information. They also have vendors in Europe. (Finland, Italy, France, UK, ??)

It should not be necessary to re-install anything, assuming that you have a disk partition free for FreeBSD. See the webpage www.freebsd.org for details. In the general case, though, you may have to reformat (i.e. repartition) the harddisk. By the way, FreeBSD and Linux are unrelated projects.

It requires device drivers to run under windows. It may not run under any other OS because it is device driver dependent. My advice to you is to go out and buy a 'real' modem. The reason freebsd fails to see it is that it needs the device driver in order to do that, and the device driver is written for windows.... >By the way, is FreeBSD user friendly? yes, it's just choosy who its friends are :-) To reply via email please use news-reply at i-zone dot demon dot co dot uk.

Some of them are attached. They suggested me to get supports from you as this is a very unusual problem. The following is my problem on installing the FreeBSD. I tried to install Free BSD on a hard-disk without any OS and without a DOS partition. I mean that I tried to install Free BSD alone on a hard disk. I tried to install it on a hard disk with a DOS partition too. I actually did many tries for the Free BSD installation. All were not successful. I guess that the problem could be in hard-disk site because the wd2 (hard-disk parameters) was not displayed properly at system bootup time. I set hard-disk to LBA mode in BIOS. The hard disk parameters is SIZE 1282, CYLS 621, HEAD 64, LANDZ 2483, SECTOR 63 MODE LBA. I checked these hard-disk parameters from fdisk during instillation. All was correct when running fdisk, but after re-boot the computer, it is reset to a wrong parameter (CYLS 1422). It was strange to me as everything (fdisk and copy files) was okay during installation. There was no problem getting correct hard-disk parameter at fdisk, but it fails after re-boot.

I first tried FBSD at ver 2.1.5 and was never able to get dialup ppp working. 2.2.2 was tried a while back, and now 2.2.6. So, this is a big moment here! (Oddly enough, I never had these problems with linux.) The first problem I had was that FreeBSD didn't like my IDE drives. The "probing devices" msg at the begining of the install just sat there while one of the drives was accessed constantly. Not a huge problem since I wanted to install on a SCSI drive anyway. So, I disabled the IDE interface. The install was ok after that. (Except that the Cheapbytes CD seem to have a corrupt ports tarball on it. I don't think Cheapbytes is the place to go for anything but linux.) On rebooting, I attempted to re-enable the IDE drives. No go. It wouldn't even boot. It got to Booteasy, I pressed F1, and I got a continuous scrolling error message. So, back to no IDE. And I have a FreeBSD system. Played with the sample files in /etc/ppp and got things to work enough to get a connection. I do get an error message though... Warning: Add route failed: 0.0.0.0: errno: Network is unreachable. I assume I goofed in ppp.conf. But it doesn't matter since that gets removed anyway. And ppp does work. I would like to get my IDE drives working. Anyone have any ideas? Also, does FreeBSD support vfat or ntfs? My vfat partitions are /dev/hda3 and /dev/hda5 in linux. Any idea what that might translate to in FreeBSD? This slice thing is a bit foreign to me. (Never figured it out in Solaris either.)

I used fdimage to copy the boot.flp to a floppy, and that boots fine. I go through and i identify my hardware, which is correct and on the compatible list, and when i hit 'q' and then 'y' to save settings, my system reads from the floppy for a moment, then hits the hard drive for a millisecond, then it locks up, with the white block cursor in the top left-hand corner. i've waited long periods of time, to no avail.

If the above is all you're doing with syslogd, you're missing out on a lot. ;-) Second suggestion: Play with the auth and authpriv facilities. Change the above to include auth.* and authpriv.*, and see if you get what you need. (Note: You might want to send authpriv.* to a separate logfile, readable only by root.)

MiniSQL, MySQL and Postgres should all do the job. PHP talks to all three. MiniSQL is minimalist, which makes it ideal for small jobs... which most Web-based databases turn out to be. MySQL is a very mature package, though also a bit on the minimalist side. Postgres has a ways to go to be as mature and stable, but will probably outstrip the others in terms of fucntionality, eventually. All the above IMHO. MiniSQL and MySQL have restrictive quasi-commercial licensing schemes.

Anyone? I would sugget you look at PHP. PHP is a scripting language which can be used "inline" in HTML documents. The PHP interpreter compiles straight into your Apache httpd. If PHP was compiled with support for the "gd" graphics library (this is optional), it should give you the functionality you're looking for. For more info about PHP: http://www.php.net/ There is a FreeBSD port for apache+php. I don't know if the port compiles in gd support - I've always compiled and installed this sort of thing "manually". (There is also a port for gd.) BTW, if you wish to install the lastest version of PHP - version 3 - then I would recommend you go with Apache 1.3 or later. Alternatively, there is a perl5 module for gd support (also in the ports). Install it, write your CGI applications in Perl, and off you go. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 00:11:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA05682 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 00:11:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.bit-net.com (dns1.bit-net.com [208.146.132.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA05628 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 00:11:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sderdau@bit-net.com) Received: from bit-net.com (sderdau.bit-net.com [208.146.135.247]) by mail.bit-net.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA31619; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 03:11:08 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <358E039C.C1D05863@bit-net.com> Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 03:11:24 -0400 From: "Stephen A.

Just a guess: you disabled sc0 in the kernel config screen, since it conflicts with your mouse. Try again and leave the conflict alone. sc0, of course, is the console, and disabling has just the effect you describe. This is poorly documented, although it has been noted, I believe for the next release, or at least a FAQ item. dave -- http://www.microsoft.com/security: `Microsoft Windows NT Server is the most secure network operating system available.'

When you run the remote > application, it has to make a connection back to the machine with the > DISPLAY. There's no way for the alias engine to know which internal > machine should get the data back. THe aliasing doesn't know, but there is a way to do this. Try a web search for "xforward". What you do is run this prog. on the machine with the "real" IP, where it mimics an Xserver listening on port 6000 or whatever, typically 6010. If the gateway is foo.bar.com, then DISPLAY on the remote SUN will be DISPLAY=foo.bar.com:10.0 (or is it 0.10... I forget; I'm not currently using this program). The xforward program then forwards the connection through to the final screen. The gateway doesn't need to have X installed. I used this on a linux gateway to allow a BSD workstation to display application output from a remote IRIS not too long ago. There are other progs, too. Where to Get Xforward --------------------- The current version of xforward can be copied by anonymous FTP from crl.dec.com:/pub/DEC/xforward.tar.Z. That gets a Motif version with a possibly broken Makefile. There's an another version kicking around that includes an Imakefile and can be set up to use Xaw. There's a hacked version (no motif/xaw, no security) on ftp at sunsite.unc.edu/pub/X11/contrib/applications/xforward2.tar.gz or www.cdrom.com/pub/X11/contrib/applications/xforward2.tar.gz A shell archive of the Xaw version is at http://ftp.lth.se/archive/usenet/comp.sources.x/volume21/ Use a browser for that last one. ----------------------- I've heard that ssh will proxy an X display, too.

It is failing because the IP address is unresolvable. You need to set up reverse DNS for the new IP addresses.

What I did was install and configure a SMC 16bit ISA ethernet card (8416), and used the same crossover cable as before. It worked fine, I could telnet, ping, and use Lynx to access the Document server on the Sun box. I then swapped the Intel card from the Sun box with the one in the FreeBSD box just in case it was a bad card. But the card that was in the Sun box worked fine in the FreeBSD box. The problem lies with the Sun Solaris v2.6 Intel EtherExpress driver (iprb0). I can only assume that it is looking for the heartbeat pulse from a hub. All I know is that with Solaris v2.6 X86 and the Sun Intel ExtherExpress 10+ driver (iprb0) will not work with a crossover cable. ------ original message follows ------- Okay all you FreeBSD/Solaris experts here is the problem: my FreeBSD and Solaris box can't talk to each other here are the details: Sunbox - P166 w/256KB L2 cache running Solaris v2.6 5/98 release. unit has 80MB of ram, Intel EtherExpress 10+ (iprb0), Adaptec 1542, no ide devices. ip-info= 192.168.1.10, netmask 255.255.255.0, broadcast on 192.168.1.255 note: Before I installed Solaris, this box was a ppp gateway to the net running a ftp server, and 2 web servers. The hardware works. FreeBSDbox - p133 w/512KB L2 cache running FreeBSD 2.2.5 release. Unit has 24MB of ram, Intel EtherExpress 10+ card (fxp0) , SMC isa card (ed0), running off on-board IDE 2.1 GB HDD. ip-info=192.168.1.11, netmask 255.255.255.0, broadcast on 192.168.1.255 ip-info(ed0)=192.168.1.12, netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast on 192.168.1.255 Both boxes are connected to each other with a 10BaseT crossover cable. To test the cable I connected it between the ed0, and fxp0 on the FreeBSD box. Pinging the ed0 from the fxp0 worked just fine, the rx (receive), and tx (transmitt) leds on the ed0 (SMC) both flashed. Ping reported no errors. >From the BSD box when I ping the sunbox, tcpdump reports the following: arp who-has 192.168.1.10 tell 192.168.1.11 over and over. But the traffic light on the fxp0 only flashes 6 times. ping reports host is down. >From the Sun box when I ping the BSD box, snoop reports the following: arp c who is 192.168.1.11 tell 192.168.1.10 over and over. But the traffic light on the iprb0 flashes 6 times. ping reports no answer from host. If I move the same cable from the fxp0 on the BSD box to the ed0 on the BSD box the rx light only with flash about 6 times also. The tx light stays off. arp -a on the sunbox or the BSD will only report the MAC addresss for the local network cards. When I ping the sunbox from the BSD box, then do a arp -a from the BSD box it will report 192.168.1.10 ? (incomplete) likewise on the sunbox. Any want to take a crack at this ? Do I have to start disassembing packets now ? Any helpful info you have please e-mail me. I will post a summary once it's all working. Either I missed one simple step, or God wants me a run all FreeBSD boxes :-) Many Thanks Paul Griffith BTW: Reinstalling Solaris is not an option.

After I installed "novice install" onto a second harddrive (IDE 6.1 GB) in my system I cannot get FreeBSD to boot. I can alway change the boot sequence using "Setup" to get to WIN95 installed on a primary drive. The very first time I installed FreeBSD I selected "A" option to allocate the whole second disk to FreeBSD. I am wondering if this is a source of the problem. I have since used fdisk under windows and allocated a DOS partition on the second drive and then reinstalled but still no luck. Also WIN95 "Windows Explorer" shows the presence of the second drive but when I click on it a dialog box appears with the message: "D:\ is not accessible. A device attached to the system is not functioning" The PC system is new and was assembled by a very reputable dealer in Milwaukee WI. They have been in business over 13 years with 4 stores in the metro area. I could take the system in and inquire about the hard drive "D:" not being recognized. Please Help!!!!!!!

Delete this route. Just by ifconfiging the cards, machine B knows where the subnets are. Or so I think :) > In /etc/rc.conf I've got: > > gateway_enable="YES" > router_enable="YES" Router_enable is probably not needed? Summary: (Assuming that machine B has a third interface to the "world").

I had NT running on the same machine and the ethernet card works fine. The device number on the card is 9 and irq is 9. After I installed FreeBSD, it said pci0:9: vender=0x10b7, device=0x9055, class=network (ethernet) int a irq pci0:9 [no driver assigned] at boot time. I rebuilt the kernel, it still the same. I read all the information I can find, everything tells me that FreeBSD should detect the device number and irq, and it seems like it does but for some reason, no driver is assigned. Please tell me what I should do at this point, I'm stuck. Thanks a whole bunch!!!!

FBSD uses it's own partition. A Defrag is necessary before resizing (with FIPS or Partition Magic). If that's too much trouble, then it might be best to start from scratch (install DOS on 1 partition, FBSD on the other.) It's also possible to pick up an old harddrive somewhere for under $50. Look around. Heck..you could probably even buy a 486 for under $50 and rip out the drive. (Or make it a dedicated FBSD machine.)

Once the kernel has initialised things, it kicks off userland processes by executing /sbin/init. See init(8) for more details. As on most BSD-like systems, init then executes the startup script /etc/rc. >From a user's point of view, this is all that is fairly basic and "hardwired" about the bootup configuration. If you look through FreeBSD's /etc/rc, you'll see that it parses a number of other scripts. In particular, FreeBSD offers you: - /etc/rc.conf, in which you can make configuration changes - /etc/rc.local, in which you can place any local startup commands that you wish to incorporate. Also note the "local_startup" parameter in rc.conf. This specifies a list of directories. Any scripts in these directories will be executed upon startup. This is useful for starting individual daemons. And if you think this is complicated, wait till you see how SysV does it. ;-) -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 09:48:42 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA02400 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 09:48:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mercury.jorsm.com (mercury.jorsm.com [207.112.128.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA02318 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 09:48:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jer@jorsm.com) Received: from localhost (jer@localhost) by mercury.jorsm.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id LAA05943; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:48:22 -0500 (CDT) Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:48:22 -0500 (CDT) From: Jeremy Shaffner To: Joel Ray Holveck cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Wired memory usage In-Reply-To: <199806201828.NAA16848@detlev.UUCP> 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 `man systat` may provide what you're looking for.

After I installed "novice install" onto a second harddrive (IDE 6.1 GB) in my system I cannot get FreeBSD to boot. I can alway change the boot sequence using "Setup" to get to WIN95 installed on a primary drive. The very first time I installed FreeBSD I selected "A" option to allocate the whole second disk to FreeBSD. I am wondering if this is a source of the problem. I have since used fdisk under windows and allocated a DOS partition on the second drive and then reinstalled but still no luck. Also WIN95 "Windows Explorer" shows the presence of the second drive but when I click on it a dialog box appears with the message: "D:\ is not accessible. A device attached to the system is not functioning" The PC system is new and was assembled by a very reputable dealer in Milwaukee WI. They have been in business over 13 years with 4 stores in the metro area. I could take the system in and inquire about the hard drive "D:" not being recognized. Please Help!!!!!!!

FreeBSD 2.2.6 doesn't support vfat natively...just use vmount which does.(Make a search trough FTPSearch and get the 'b' release ) I myself was a Linux user and your partitions should be /dev/wd0s3 and /dev/wd0s5 . It is simple: hda is first ide disk on Linux and /dev/wd0 is first ide disk on FreeBSD /dev/hdaX is partition X on that disk and /dev/wd0sX is slice X on that drive according to FreeBSD.

In the shell accounts I create for my users, I've set up FTP "drop boxes", which allow users to do 2 things: 1) They can put files there that other people can FTP in and grab anonymously, so they don't have to know the user's password. 2) Outsiders can upload files to a special "incoming" directory underneath the user's FTP directory; they cannot see the contents of this directory, they can only place files there. The problem I'm running into is that when someone uploads a file, the file is owned by "ftp", and not by the user whose account it's going into, so the file doesn't count towards the user's quota. Consequently, outsiders have been abusing this by uploading huge files and directories, probably with the intent of filling up my filesystem. (Thankfully, /ftp is on its own drive.) My question is, is there a way to get the OS to force ownership on the file as soon as it's uploaded, so that outsiders cannot upload more than will fit in the user's quota? Or does anyone have a suggestion as to a better method of implementing these drop boxes than what I'm currently doing?

To execute stuff when you log in, .profile, .login, or .cshrc, depending on which shell you use.

Doublecheck and make sure. Set it in userconfig (-c at the boot: prompt) and make sure it is detected fine during boot. If it's changed any then you'll also need to change your ppp config files. -===================================================================- Jeremy Shaffner JORSM Internet Senior Technical Support Northwest Indiana's Premium jer@jorsm.com Internet Service Provider support@jorsm.com http://www.jorsm.com -===================================================================- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 11:17:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA18936 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:17:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from sun.tir.com (sun.tir.com [205.138.41.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA18781 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:16:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from english1@tir.com) Received: from tir.com (port45.mico25.tir.com [209.140.180.230]) by sun.tir.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id OAA19378 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 14:16:08 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <358D73AB.FB8BE872@tir.com> Date: Sun, 21 Jun 1998 16:57:16 -0400 From: William English X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: (no subject) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG i need help when i went to install freeBSD it says unable to make new root filesystem on /dev/rwd0s3a what did i do wrong To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 11:26:32 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA21090 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:26:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail1.realtime.net (mail1.realtime.net [205.238.128.217]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA20991 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 11:26:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sjsan@bga.com) Received: (qmail 25370 invoked from network); 22 Jun 1998 18:26:01 -0000 Received: from zoom.realtime.net (HELO zoom.bga.com) (sjsan@205.238.128.40) by mail1.realtime.net with SMTP; 22 Jun 1998 18:26:01 -0000 Received: from localhost (sjsan@localhost) by zoom.bga.com (8.6.12/8.6.12) with SMTP id NAA06630 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 13:26:00 -0500 Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 13:25:59 -0500 (CDT) From: DoGmAx To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Error: Missing Operating System 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 Hey All, I have this PC that I trying to install FreeBSD on.

I am trying to install from FTP, and it takes me through the whole process without any error messages, but when it is done and I reboot I get "Read error". I think this is happening before the machine even reads the boot sector. First I thought this was a hardware problem, but when I installed DOS on the same machine it booted fine. Also, if I boot from a floppy but give it boot: "0:wd(0,a)kernel" it works fine. I just need it to be able to find the kernel on its own and sans the floppy boot. Any suggestions? Thanks, Roman. P.S. I am not sure if this went through the first time I posted it, so if this is a repost, please excuse.

I would expect it to not work, for the same reasons as above. 1) ircii running on 10.0.0.2 sends a CTCP message with my IP and listening port (It does correctly send my real IP [ie 209.100.92.54], and not 10.0.0.2) 2) client on the other end recieves the message and attempts to open a TCP conection to 209.100.92.54:PORT 3) My gateway machine running ppp -alias recieves the packet, (and here is where I don't get it) correctly forwards it to 10.0.0.2 I would expect it to fail at #3. It worked just fine to my surprise. I only have just the two computers, fork (10.0.0.1) and spoon (10.0.0.2). Does the alias engine assume that the packet was intended for spoon? I also tried this in Win95 with mIRC, and it did fail as I expected it to (mIRC was also using the real IP address, and not 0.2). -===================================================================- Jeremy Shaffner JORSM Internet Senior Technical Support Northwest Indiana's Premium jer@jorsm.com Internet Service Provider support@jorsm.com http://www.jorsm.com -===================================================================- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 12:11:01 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA00864 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:11:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f179.hotmail.com [207.82.251.65]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA00853 for ; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:10:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mbedynek@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 26701 invoked by uid 0); 22 Jun 1998 19:10:20 -0000 Message-ID: <19980622191020.26700.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 209.109.111.196 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:10:20 PDT X-Originating-IP: [209.109.111.196] From: "matt bedynek" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: bind 8 Content-Type: text/plain Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:10:20 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG i have bind 8 setup and was wondering how i could get it to fetch the zone files. it does manual lookups and works, i have a tld registered with internic and all that works as well, but i want it to fetch and cache the zone files so it doesnt need to go lookup and is faster. i also want it to refresh once a week, which i believe i have set correctly but not sure.. thanks! matt ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jun 22 12:19:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA01865 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:19:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.webwizard.net.mx (mexcom.net.mx [207.249.162.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA01835; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 12:18:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from eculp@webwizard.org.mx) Received: from sunix (eculp@sunix.mexcom.net [206.103.64.3]) by ns.webwizard.net.mx (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id OAA03407; Mon, 22 Jun 1998 14:17:57 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <358EA148.6513CABD@webwizard.org.mx> Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 13:24:08 -0500 From: Edwin Culp Organization: Mexico Communicates X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01Gold (X11; I; Linux 2.0.14 i586) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Joe Schwartz CC: freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: [Fwd: Re: routing issue] Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------14049ECB962959A7A7BB842" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------14049ECB962959A7A7BB842 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I screwed up on my email configuration.

Just to expand on that a little bit. Ethernet really works using ethernet hardware addresses (MAC addresses), not IP addresses (fancy that :) Since most modems don't have MAC addresses the host providing dialup service supplies its own enet hardware address in response to arp requests for the modem's IP.

However, the "rmuser" command does not seem to work in this release. If I have to remove the accounts manually, what would be the best way to go about it? I am assuming that I will need to remove them from /etc/master.passwd, as well as delete their home directories. Is there anything else that needs to be done? Thanks in advance, Marty.

On FreeBSD however, you have to install these yourself. it should be in the ports collections somewhere, you need to read the install instructions very carefully however, as you need to add some things to /etc/inetd.conf or replace your original daemon binaries. ___________________________________________________________________________ Pat Lynch lynch@rush.net Systems Administrator Rush Networking ___________________________________________________________________________ On Mon, 22 Jun 1998, Jeremy Shaffner wrote: > On Sun, 21 Jun 1998, Brendan Kosowski wrote: > > > > > I was a Linux user but have now changed to FreeBSD.

Here's what I would do: 1) as you note, remove their home directories 2) remove their mail directories (/var/mail/user_name usually) 3) vipw - remove their entries 4) vi /etc/group - remove them from any groups I've probably forgotten something. :-) Brett ********************************************************* Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ If you meet a beautiful woman wearing skintight, clingy lycra, and one of the first five words out of your mouth is "Campagnolo" . . . . . you might be a cyclist.

In order to build and install the binaries and libs, you need to untar all the archives. Tehn, in the /usr/ports dir, create directories to put the untarred archives in. These directories are named after the category from which the .tar files were taken. For instace, kde.tar, kdelibs.tar, and kdebase.tar need to be put in /usr/ports/x11. jpeg, imlib, and kdegraphics go in /usr/ports/graphics. Go to the ports page off the FreeBSD homepage to find out all the right categories. Once you've moved all the stub dirs into the category dirs, cd to /usr/ports/x11/kde, and type make all install clean. This will download all the sources, build kde, and install it. Of course, this requires an Internet connection.

I suspect the HDLC error (1 FCS error per connection) is because IOL is sending something like "Password accepted" (or some non-ppp data) at the end of the login sequence - something you're not ``expect''ing and therefore is considered ppp data, failing the checksum and being treated as an error. > Any ideas whats wrong? Not really. You might want to get the latest version of ppp from http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html and see if that helps...

I ran into the same problem when I switched from Sendmail to Qmail, which keeps user mailboxes in $HOME/Mailbox. Here's the solution: 1) Go to /usr/ports/mail/popper. 2) Do a make, but *not* make install. 3) Once make is done, go into the work/qpopper2.41beta1 directory (that's my version, yours may be different) and make the following changes to these files: Makefile: Look for the line starting with O_DEFS and add "-DHOMEDIRMAIL" onto the end of it. pop_dropcopy.c: At approximately line 284, you should see a line that reads this: strncat(p->drop_name, "/.mail",sizeof(p->drop_name) - strlen(p->drop_name)); Change the ".mail" to "mail" (or, as in my case, "Mailbox"). 4) While in that same directory, type "make", which will recompile the changed version of pop_dropcopy.c. 5) Go back up 2 directories (cd ../..) and then do "make install". You will now have a slightly hacked version of Qualcomm's QPopper, which will work with your setup. Hope that helps! - Bryce ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Stop smirking, Number 1." -- J.L.

I found that I had to go to the partition editor first, and define the partition there. Then, DON'T write the changes to disk yet; just hit Q to finish. Then go to the label editor and define where you want your partition mounted, etc. While you're in the label editor, *then* use W to write out the changes, and when you exit the label editor, it should mount and, if necessary, format, your partition.

I was pretty sure that was all it did as I grabbed a few books off the shelf here and did a bit of reading on the subject. I thought that the machine might reboot instead...ah well live and learn.

That's not really it. I was looking for a breakdown of wired (non-pagable) memory. systat will tell me how much memory has been wired, but not what it's being used for. I seem to recall a command that displays at least kernel usage, if not mlock'd pages. But I can't remember the command, and none of my apropos searches find it.

If you are running this box as a fileserver only (ie, no interactive accounts), you may want to look at adding the SUIDDIR option to your kernel config.

However, upon start up, everything connects fine, and ifconfig tun0 shows only one instance running? Somewhere the is a route it cant find. In sysconfig I have network_interfacees="lo0 ed0 tun0" ... ifconfig_tun0= and in start_if.tun0 I have ppp -ddial isp Now, on far to many mornings, the link will go down, usually around 4:50 a.m, and I come out to find the system hung, with this error showing; alert: deflink: Can't unlock uu_unlock /var/run/cuaa0_if As i can't find what is actually blocking this, I have to re-boot.

There are login shells and there are non-login shells. There are different rc files for different invocations. For example: bash uses - .bash_profile for login shells. - .bashrc for non-loging shells. An xterm is _not_ a login shells unless you deliberately make it one. You should read "man (yourshell)" to find out specifics.

That went smoothly. I put the disk in my 386 and rebooted it. It started reading the disk, then rebooted, at first I thought it to be normal, until it started doing a loop of reboots. I read the FAQ reasons/fixes for it, but they didn't apply to me. I took the same boot disk and it booted fine on my i586. Why does it keep rebooting on my 386 ?

One is connected to 1st IDE interface and another is connected to 2nd IDE. The 2nd IDE is connected to a IDE CD-ROM as well. When I installed Free BSD, I disabled the 1st IDE interface from the BIOS, and left the 2nd IDE interface alone to the computer. The hard-disk settings, which is related to 1st IDE interface, were set to none or disable. I used this method to install Linux, QNX and all Microsoft stuffs as well. None of them failed. The rock-reliable Free BSD should not fail too. BTW, I tried wd(1,a)kernel, but the result is same. I may try to remove my 1st hard-disk to see how. I thank you for your helps.

When I set up my user ID, I made sure to include it in the wheel group, but it doesn't seem like I'm getting the permissions I should. I'm getting permission denied messages in /sbin, even though all the flags are identical to files in /bin. Also, my shell and login scripts in my home directory are not visible to me unless I change to su. Also, my path always shows up the same when I use env, no matter what changes I make to my .login file in my user directory after I change to su. The path in my .login file includes /usr/X11R6/bin, but when I do an env, the path shown does not include it. If I try to use env to change the path to include /usr/X11R6/bin, it doesn't work. It just reverts back to the original. And even su doesn't seem to have the level of access it should. I get permission denied messages even with it. One thing I did notice is that when I change to su, I get a message saying: root:kerberos: 'root not a member of ACL' or something along those lines. Finally, when I installed FBSD (from CDROM), I specifically remember telling it to include games as part of the distribution, but the only directory I have under /usr/games is hide, which seems to be empty. Even as su I don't get anything with ls. I'm very frustrated.

This is especially true given that Jordan is even telling comercial developers to port to linux first, and then to FreeBSD because FreeBSD can run most linux binaries anyway. Just mark up your rates for non-FreeBSD based environments. If questions, explain why you think linux work is more expensive.

No. Each disk has up to eight slices called a to h. Your first IDE disk is wd0, the second wd1, so you have sixteen devices wd0a to wd0h and wd1a to wd1h.

I won't copy -current on this one, since it's been discussed there. The message will no longer appear (somebody reduced NFS_MUIDHASHSIZ), but it's completely harmless.

I thought you said you *could* press ^C and terminate the 'who' process. Let's get some terminology straight: UNIX is an operating system. It consists of a kernel and user programs. The kernel is started when you boot and controls execution of programs. When you start a program, you create what is called a process. A process is an instance of a running program. You can start the same program more than once, in which case you have more than one process, but only one program. Thus, strictly speaking, you can't stop a program, only a process. The kernel runs in a privileged, protected mode. Ideally, there's no way to stop it except to shut down the system. In practice, it's also possible (though difficult) to either stop it executing with a panic (a situation in which the kernel finds it can't continue) or a hang (a situation in which the kernel doesn't continue). Most kernel hangs are only partial: processes waiting on particular resources can't continue, and you may not be able to stop them. In this case, you need to reboot, with a shutdown if you can still get a reaction from a virtual terminal, or forcibly via the reset button if not. All such situations represent some kind of bug, though it's not really clear that it's a kernel bug if the system hangs because you can't access the (failed) system disk. If a process doesn't react, on the other hand, this is not necessarily a bug. In the case I think you were talking about, it may have been waiting for some event which would never happen. In this case, it should still continue if you send it a signal, such as SIGQUIT, which you can generate with the ^C key. If it still reacts to ^C, it's not a kernel bug, though it could be a program bug. Looking back over this, I don't know if I have succeeded in making myself clear. When I clear out the 1000 mail messages waiting for me, things might be better. Ask again if you need any further clarification.

Also, my shell and login scripts in my >home directory are not visible to me unless I change to su. The bin/sbin files are owned by bin:bin so you can execute them. Just because you are in the "wheel" group doesn't mean you can do things like root. You have to "su" to root first. There are _no_ binaries in bin/sbin that are owned by group wheel. Being a member of "wheel" avails you nothing in these directories. For the most part, being in wheel only benefits you by allowing you to become root. To see the hidden dot files use 'ls -a' for "list all". You do not need to be root to see the hidden dot files. >Also, my path always shows up the same when I use env, no >matter what changes I make to my .login file in my user directory >after I change to su.

It just reverts back to the original. '.login' is for csh. '.profile' is for sh and/or bash. If your prompt looks like "something$" you use sh/bash. If you prompt looks like "something%" you use csh. Look in '/etc/passwd' to see what your default shell is. You probably don't need to mess with '/etc/profile' ENV variable yet. >And even su doesn't seem to have the level of access it should. I >get permission denied messages even with it. One thing I did >notice is that when I change to su, I get a message saying: >root:kerberos: 'root not a member of ACL' or something along those >lines. This is a FAQ. I don't recall the answer off hand. Look in the mailing list archives. It is a trivial fix. Also, the message doesn't mean you don't have the power of root. It has to do with kerberos. Oh yeah... use 'su -K' to surpress kerberos login. >Finally, when I installed FBSD (from CDROM), I specifically remember >telling it to include games as part of the distribution, but the only >directory I have under /usr/games is hide, which seems to be empty. >Even as su I don't get anything with ls. $ cd /usr/src/games/whatevergameyouwantoinstall $ make $ make install >I'm very frustrated. You _must_ read. If reading frustrates you then FreeBSD will frustrate you. The answer to all of these questions is written down in one place or another. Here is a starting list. Read 'em front to back. $ man su $ man ls $ man sh $ man csh $ man hier $ man vipw Stick with it. All of these problems you are having are minor growing pains. It really is worth it to learn all of this stuff. FreeBSD is a rock solid platform for just about anything you want to do. Configuring FreeBSD is really quite sane. Once you get the hang of it you will wonder how on earth other OSes can be so convoluted.

It will do the same if you put a non- MSDos disk in the floppy drive, as well. Given the above, it finds the UFS partition and rejects it. It won't affect the operation of Windows, though.

A follow-up here...got home and the console said enter path to sh or hit return for sh: Hit return and I'm at a sh prompt. So I diddle about a bit, everything is still mounted and running, init is still going with about 5 other process's but thats about it so it dropped to single user I guess. Do a quick man init and find that a ^D will start everything up again. Sure enough it does and I'm right back to where I was. Current up time is over 30 days for this machine and really didnt want to reboot.

Everything got well. But yesterday, I decided to upgrade to FreeBSD3.0 so I got a tar archive of the 3.0-980520-SNAP, copy the sources, ran the installation script for the /bin directory, also ran the install script for the port directory (of the 3.0 of course), tried to re-build the kernel (but not succeded because of an error at config time : files.i386 : i386/isa/npx.c must be optional or standard, so I let the old kernel as it was) and... reboot. Now by booting with 1:sd(1,0)/kernel, I get : mount : exec mount_ not found in /sbin/, /usr/sbin : no such file or directory File mount failed, startup aborted Enter FullPathname or shell or return for /bin/sh So I type RETURN, get a prompt. Doing df show only the partition / All other partitions are not mounted. And In this only partition, I can't write anything, because each time I try to, I get read only filesystem. So what can I do ? Do I have to re-install everything ? And was it the right procedure to get to FreeBSD3.0 ?? Thanks a lot for reply, Tram -- Universite de Versailles dntt@prism.uvsq.fr http://www.ens-info.uvsq.fr:8000/~dntt/index.html Il y a au moins deux façons de programmer la même chose.

If it's connected to your primary channel, swap the second hard disk and CDROM, so the two hard drives are on the same channel, then try it. Don't worry too much about geometry, it's all fake anyway.

Instead of using the X port I'd suggest starting /stand/sysinstall, selecting Configure, then Distributions, then XFree86 with , then navigate the menus to select the parts you want, then back out.

I'd suggest building gs5 separately so you don't have to deal with th apsfilter build when trying to debug ghostscripts' build.

And a bit more .. You need to run proxy ARP if you're, say, dialed into a modem pool that assigns IPs from one subnet, so that the ends of the link are on the same subnet by IP. The problem is that ARP requests won't flow over the dialup link to your machines on the client side of the link. Proxy ARP will forward the requests over the dialup link so the clients know who to talk to.

Yes, it's a sysinstall thing. Use DOS FDISK to reset the active partition bit to the OS you'd like to boot, probably the one on your primary disk.

Sounds like you want to be a secondary for some zones. Simply set yourself up as a secondary for those zones and you'll get copies of the zone files automatically.

You configure it just like a parallel port but with different parameters (qcamintr instead of lptintr for the vector I think). Then use qcamcontrol to grab images; pipe them through cjpeg to convert the output (pbm I think) to jpeg. Warning, this driver is SLOW and will drag down system performance when capturing.

I'm trying to configure dialup on my system. I've read all available docs on that subject, but I'm completely stuck. When I'm dialing in my system, I'm getting garbage instead of login prompt. Here is an information about my system: 1) FreeBSD release 2.2.5 installed on HP Vectra VE 4/100. 2) Two Courier V.Everything modems on both ends. 3) I'm dialing through local office phone station, so my problems cannot appears because of poor connection quality. 4) I have the following string in the /etc/ttys file: ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.57600" dialup on 5) I've not changed anything in gettytab file. 6) I've not changed anything in rc.serial file. 7) When system is running, I have the following "ps -x | grep ttyd0" output: 2731 ?? I 0:00.27 /usr/libexec/getty std.57600 ttyd0 8) I've sent the following string to the modem on FreeBSD: AT &F1 E0 Q1 S0=1 &W While modem's DIP switches are set to "Normal Carrier Detect" and "DTR normal". So when I'm dialing from Windows'95 HyperTerminal to FreeBSD I'm getting garbage instead of login prompt. I'm pressing Enter, but I'm getting more garbage. During that process I have the following "ps -x | grep ttyd0" output: 2731 d0 Ss+ 0:00.24 /usr/libexec/getty std.57600 ttyd0 When I'm running "tip cuaa0" and dialing to FreeBSD, all typed letters are passing through without any garbage. This is most confusing part of my problem. Looks like there are some problems with getty ? I've already spent two days on fixing this problem, but there are no results at all :( Please help me ! Kind regards Roman P.S. Please, reply to rh@dialup.ptt.ru AND rh@dentonhall.ru (I'm not sure that outlook correctly fills these fields as well as I'm not sure that dentonhall.ru is available). P.P.S.

I have got KDE installed and I'm sure each file was at least 500K. Also, did you download them as .tar files? (i.e. not .tar.gz or .tgz files?). I would go directly to the KDE site and download the latest version from there. The files you have downloaded look close to the required files (apart from the size). I found that you need to compile and install each part in the correct order for this to work. After untarring each file, you probably need to do the following to get them installed (don't just take my word for it though, read the README): ./configure make make install I think that kdelib, kdesupport, kdebase are the first ones that need compiling, the rest should compile in any order, you'll need to check though.

If you want the latest non-experimental release, cd into 2.2.6-RELEASE. Then grab INSTALL.TXT and ERRATA.TXT, then read them. If you can install over the network, just grab the boot.flp file from the floppies subdirectory and then what ever tool you need in your particular situation to make a bootable floppy from it.

This is all documented in the init(8) manpage. In fact you cannot "kill" init. Try "kill -KILL 1" and see what happens. Nothing.

Allow me to make a brief on the setup and then the problem. I have PPP installed and configured hopefully correct as the test indicates no error at this point. On win95 box, the connection is configured as: "PPP: windows 95, NT 3.5, Internet" Server Type and info on DNS, IP, default gw etc given in TCP/IP settings. In control panel, TCP/IP is loaded and is binding to the Dial-Up Adaptor. There is no other protocol loaded. The Win95 box dial into the FreeBSD. FreeBSD box answers the call, and: "Verifying Username and Password" is displayed. I could see activity between the modem and the unit. After a while, the win95 box returns the following: "Dial-Up networking could not negotiate a compatible set of network protocol you specified in the Server Type settings. Check you network configuration in the control panel and try again." Well, I think I have a pretty good working knowledge of win95 but I have checked every possible area without success. Has anybody exeperienced this or has a solution for it..?

Depending on what you need, the free HellSoft FTP daemon for Netware might be enough. ftp://novell.felk.cvut.cz/pub/nw311/ftpd/ftpd110.zip Or you could spring for Netware NFS (around $2100 according to www.uvision.com), which lets Netware mount Unix systems and export its own volumes. -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 Tue Jun 23 09:20:58 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA11959 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 09:20:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from spook.navinet.net (spook.navinet.net [206.25.93.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA11953 for ; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 09:20:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from forrie@forrie.com) Received: from forrie (black1.navinet.net [206.25.93.77]) by spook.navinet.net with SMTP id MAA08719 for ; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 12:20:54 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199806231620.MAA08719@spook.navinet.net> X-Sender: forrie@206.25.93.8 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.1 Date: Tue, 23 Jun 1998 12:21:11 -0400 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Forrest Aldrich Subject: Encrypted backups Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Has anyone hacked dump to perform des-encrypted backups.

It sounds a bit confusing ... I'm not sure what you think is so confusing. He wants a FreeBSD vs. Linux document. He knows of a NT vs. Unix document, which he cites as an example of the kind of thing he's looking for. I don't know why you accuse him of thinking Linux and NT are the same thing; he just would rather use FreeBSD than either of them, a sensible preference in my book! -- Matthew Hunt * Stay close to the Vorlon. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.

I usually, right after boot up, type /usr/local/sbin/dhcpc de0 then a minuet or so later type natd -interface de0 In all this I don't quite understand why I don't have to type something to reference de1, the 2nd nic card. Greg Lehey if you happen to read this, unless I am blind, in your book The Complete FreeBSD, there is no reference to setting up in this fashion. Is there some way to get my registered domain to point to me? I have a static so long as don't reboot and of course, the cable co. doesn't reboot either. I would be grateful for any help on this.

I would just set pppd in ttys to run in background on that port and set a pap password for yourself. making a script and chmod 755 like this will also work. #!/bin/sh exec /usr/sbin/pppd passive :youip.for.the.win.box call the script ppplogin go in passwd and set the shell for that user to ppplogin this is a simple example Also try www.freebsd.org/~brian there is a wealth of info on ppp there. goodluck!

You can probably achieve the same effect by using something like 'SSH' as a 'pipe' between dump and the actual tape... We successfully use 'nc' (netcat) at the moment to process the output of dump before it hits the tape... I think ssh is a port now...

The question has been asked before, and while my answer is somewhat simplistic, it's essentially correct.

Thanks for that tip, that's the right answer! Most bizarre: the installation had generated the 'config' file in /usr/local/lib/leafnode, which did contain the server name I'd added to the config file which I thought was supposed to be in /usr/lib/leafnode. Maybe I'd had to give that information during the compilation process, I can't remember. Anyway, I touched /usr/local/lib/leafnode/groupinfo into existence, and now leafnode works. All I had to do was delete most of the entries in /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/ to prevent fetch from going off to grab the contents of _all_ of usenet first time around after fetching the complete newsgroup list from my ISP! One more question if you don't mind: what would be the best way for me to check for new news when I'm online: could I add a call to fetch from ppp.linkup? It's a little annoying to have to crank up another root xterm to fetch news when I'm really the only user.

In retrospect, you're absolutely right. I was simply attempting to follow the hints in the FAQ entry. This would (again in retrospect!) be a seriously bad idea in the event of (say) one of my friends having an account on my machine, and using a different ISP for their email. > It should always correctly identify itself as your host in your > domain. And most knowlegable email gurus agree that header rewriting is > generally a Bad Idea. (Some claim it is downright evil.) Which host do you mean here? I have an (obviously) bogus 'domain' for my machine, just for the purpose of giving it a name (which is currently appearing in my news headers, more manual reading in order, I think ;-) but I don't have a static IP address with my ISP, and so I'm allocated a random dialup-xxx.zetnet.co.uk address each time I connect. > In particular, I suspect that BigFoot.com would object strongly to your > machine masquerading as one of theirs...

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG OK I got the bad news, now I finally have to bite the bullet. It appears I have to reinstall the OS from scratch. Unfortunately I don't currently have the means to easily dump/restore my existing file system and I will need some additional hardware upgrading. I'm not an experienced sys admin (this home system was configured by someone else several years ago.) So I am looking for a FreeBSD consultant in the SF Bay Area for a few hours consultation to help smooth this transition and reconfiguration. I'd like someone who has experience with Linux installation and Linux/FreeBSD compatibility as well (no flames please!) I am in North Oakland. Anyone local interested in consulting?

Originally, within /etc/rc, I placed the call to the dhcp client before all the other network stuff was set up. This time I removed de0 from rc.conf and placed the dhcp client after all the other network stuff was done. Now apache responds right away and I don't get the llinfo error anymore. This seems more like a bandage than a solution. Before, route would complain that file already exists since de0, defaultrouter, netmask and broadcast was already configured by the dhcp client. Now, route complains that network is unreachable since de0 hasn't been configured yet. In fact, default router and other settings probably don't happen until the dhcp client sets them up. All indications show that route is failing to set the routes. What's bizarre is that the netstat and ifconfig output from before and now are both the same. This probably is an indication that there is partially incompatible between the isc dhcp client and route. Does someone have a different take on this? Can anybody point me to where I can actually see what route is doing?

Small enough to make me suspect that they are the ports directories rather than the distfiles. If so, they should be expanded into the appropriate sub-directories of /usr/ports; at which point a 'make' in /usr/ports/x11/kde should handle fetching the distfiles and building the various packages. -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jun 23 17:38:52 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA15026 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 17:38:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.volant.org (phoenix.volant.org [205.179.79.193]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA15014 for ; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 17:38:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from patl@phoenix.volant.org) From: patl@phoenix.volant.org Received: from asimov.phoenix.volant.org [205.179.79.65] by phoenix.volant.org with smtp (Exim 1.62 #1) id 0yoda8-0001DB-00; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 17:38:36 -0700 Received: from localhost by asimov.phoenix.volant.org (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id RAA12287; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 17:38:30 -0700 Date: Tue, 23 Jun 1998 17:38:29 -0700 (PDT) Reply-To: patl@phoenix.volant.org Subject: Re: sendmail: How do I make sendmail 'fake' my 'online' mail address?

Using bogus domain names for machines which are even intermittantly internet-connected is not generally a good idea. You might want to see if ZetNet will give you a fixed host or subdomain name. It doesn't have to be bound to a specific IP address as long as they have an MX record for it that points to one of their servers that will hold your mail until you dialup and ask for it. You would still get the dialup-xxx name when you connect; but you would also have the fixed name. (Although they probably won't be able to give the fixed name an IP address when you are logged in.) This would be the easiest, and probably cheapest solution; if it is available. Another solution would be to register your own domain name, with ZetNet acting as the primary (and possibly secondary) for your DNS records, including an MX record pointing to one of their servers. If you don't want the expense of your own domain, and ZetNet won't set up a fixed host or subdomain for you; you could arange with a third party to use a subdomain within their domain. The problem with any of these solutions is that without a fixed IP address, your outgoing mail will fail a reverse DNS lookup; and may still be mistaken for SPAM. To avoid this, you need to set up your MTA so that it doesn't try to directly deliver any external mail. Instead, it should simply simply say "Hmm, this isn't for the local host (or LAN), let's pass it up to ZetNet's mailer and let it handle it." (Then it will be the ZetNet mail server contacting the remote host. Their server should have a fixed IP address and all of the necessary DNS records to pass simple SPAM/forgery checks.) BUT I just took a step back from the immediate difficulties and got a better view of the root problem. (We're here to drain the swamp. The alligators are just an annoyance...) The good news is that you may have an even easier solution that doesn't require any MTA setup at all. If you have a single host, and you don't need to compose and store the outgoing mail locally until the next dialup connection, you may be able to simply tell your MUA to use the ZetNet mail server for outgoing messages. It has been a long time since I looked into elm; so I have no idea whether it can do that or not. Traditional unix MUAs will tend to simply invoke a local copy of sendmail or /bin/mail and assume a local SMTP daemon; but some of the newer MUAs let you specify another host, and often a non-standard port, for outgoing SMTP service. (This is particularly common among MUAs that are designed to work with IMAP or POP3 servers rather than just your local unix mailbox.) Netscape Communicator and ML both allow you to specify the SMTP server separately from the POP/ IMAP server(s). > I may consider looking into this, once I get sendmail working properly > at any rate!

The thing to remember about FAQs is that they tend to be aimed at the most common case. (Or at least the case that was thought to be the most common when the FAQ was written...)

I'm rather unsure about: I'd have to re-read the Sendmail book to have a clue - it's been several years since I switched to exim; and the details of sendmail configuration can fade pretty fast...

This is a fitting description of what a FAQ should be. A FAQ is _not_ a technical document. It is a collection of "gotcha's" that we all share and contribute to. README's are also not full blown documentation. The man pages are technical documents. Being so, they are a chore to read. Here is one tip. Hit '/' and then type in a keyword to find pertinent info. Which brings me back to the book(s). They are invaluable at providing insight. They are also not technical documents. You see there is a conundrum. If you turn a technical document into an "insight" document it loses it's effectiveness as a technical document. If you turn a book (insight) into a technical document it will also become ineffective. You really do need both types of texts. >There is no document that gives a big-picture view of all the elements >necessary to set it up for say, a single developer who wants to do X >Windows stuff.

I wasn't condescending you. I was telling you what you needed to know and what you asked me for. One of the things that you need to know is that FreeBSD requires a lot of reading, therefore that is what I told you.

As we've been upgrading, we're replacing our webserver with a couple of UltraSPARCs, but are leaving mail on one of our existing Linux boxes, and using the second as a backup. Here's where things get interesting. The backup server is being used as an administration server for our Sun boxes (thru xhost). While copying some files, we lost power and the admin/backup server's file structure got pretty messed up. When I tried to reinstall the original OS (a combination of Caldera-xwindows and RedHat-everything else, with Kernel being Linux 1.2.13) and run the backup tape, it couldn't set up a ram drive from the startup disks and the whole thing was screwed. We put FreeBSD on it, just so we could set up the admin server, and let it go at that. Unfortunately, this means that for now, we have no backup mail server, a very bad thing. My question for you is this, could we run the information on the 4gig backup tape under FreeBSD? Is the file structure similar enough? Could the BSD kernel support the Linux sendmail? I understand that this may seem naive, and the answer is probably a simple NO, but I've got to ask. The alternative is to try and track down someone who has a copy of the same Linux Kernel (a tough task as the supplier of our server is now out of business). I greatly appreciate any assistance you could offer in this matter.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This past weekend was VERY eventful for me. I installed FreeBSD for the first (and second and third...) time. Every single problem that I had was the direct result of PHYSICAL hardware failure (one) or my own ignorance or stupidity (or combination thereof). This is (as far as I can tell yet) one _terrific_ OS. Most of my *nix experience is playing with Linux, and I've played with XFree86 in Linux, so I carry a VERY basic understanding from doing that, but I have to say that _2_ things helped me SEVERELY. 1. A VERY good friend of mine provided me with a "kid-tested, mother-approved" XF86Config file. As hardware goes, our XF86Config files SHOULD be identical, and they are. (Same monitor, video card, trackball, have I left out anything?) =) I had literally _0_ tweaking to do there...actually...I am now concerned with upping the sensitivity on the trackball because the monitor is uhhh....too big. =) 2. My ravenous appetite for reading anything FreeBSD right up to the time I started assembling the box. Some minor points. 1. I refuse to be beaten by this OS. It WILL work because I know it can. So far the OS hasn't issued much in the way of a challenge. I've cut my teeth (and a few gums) on Linux and it carries a lot of the blame for being "difficult" for me...unfairly...because it is what I "learned the basics" on. I banged my head on a few keyboards while trying to "grasp" unix in general, linux, AND XFree86, on old hardware that was never meant to run those things. (Packard Bell yeah..I _know_) 2. I built this new box around the FreeBSD OS hardware list, With few variations (and NO violations) from the "norm". I went IDE against the advice of most around here...works great so far)... I've seen it written a few times (and deduced for myself) that deciding on the OS _first_ was a really good idea. =) I HAVE to agree. 3. MOST of my frustration over the weekend was over a BRAND SPANKING NEW hard drive that was bad right out of the box. And I am still waiting on the manufacturer to send me a new one. Right now I am running XFree and some other things on an old 405MB IDE drive. 4. User ppp is a terrific package. =) It is MUCH more straight forward than kernel ppp. I may or may NOT decide to switch to kernel ppp...I really don't have much of a problem initiating manual conenctions with user ppp. It's that easy. =) In closing....SO FAR...I really don't see why...in the grand scheme of things, that FreeBSD is seen as "more esoteric" than Linux. Given the PROPER hardware...this thing is a SNAP (pun intended? maybe...) =) The only real "weakness" is that FreeBSD is LESS likely to be cooperative on any given existing platform...spec the box yourself and it's been a breeze for me. And _READ_ like your life depends on it...your computer's life certainly does. (This is proper and sound advice no matter WHAT OS you run). >From what I have seen...I could support this on desktops once I became more familiar with it. I would PREFER supporting this to Lose95 ("We need a router in this office...guess Bobby's getting a 2nd NIC in his PC!"). And...I have one kick butt PC that was quite cheap as well. I mean really...EXCELLENT job Core team! (and committers too!)

Both were installed from the associated packages collection and as far as I can tell it's the same version of fvwm2. Another person who has just installed fvwm2 has noticed similar misbehaviour. I'm pretty sure this is 2.2.6-RELEASE. There doesn't seem to be any error message - it just does nothing when selected from the menu (same .fvwm2rc as before, also with supplied .fvwm2rc samples, and I checked they look OK and tried editing in various ways and made sure the colours were present in rgb.txt). When starting X or restarting fvwm2 the background doesn't get coloured like it used to, just the funny grey flyscreen look. Sometimes when I try to run FvwmBacker from the menu the background changes to black or a very dark colour and then doesn't allow further changes. I checked all paths three times, checked permissions, even copied the executable from the old system over in case there was some difference despite their having the same sizes. Nothing made any difference. The other fvwm2 modules in the same directory with the same ownership and permissions do work. Nothing comes up in the mail archives and I can't see anything mentioned about this problem on the fvwm web site. Has anyone managed to beat FvwmBacker into submission with 2.2.6? -- 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 Jun 23 19:38:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA03853 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 19:38:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from divre5.telkom.co.id ([202.134.0.55]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA03848 for ; Tue, 23 Jun 1998 19:38:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sandy@divre5.telkom.co.id) Received: from ars by divre5.telkom.co.id (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id JAA28843; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 09:29:08 -0700 Message-ID: <001301bd9f19$dc7202a0$7305600a@ars.divre5.net> From: "Arisandy" To: "Question-Freebsd" Subject: ppp help?

Reply-to: charlespeters@tecpro.com X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Windows (v3.01a) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I would like to allow users on a novell 3.12 network to access the internet via a freebsd gateway, with a 56k modem through our local ISP. I am currently doing this semi-successfully with a product called Midpoint Gateway for Windows 95/NT. The problem is that my users are having one hell of a time sending and receiving email (WWW access is just great). There is not much web browsing, but there is a considerable amount of emailing. The Midpoint gateway does not easily allow users to send and receive email (the setup is confusing and does not work consistantly). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

If it is, then check that your floppy is both completely empty and free of bad sectors. Also make sure you are copying the file to the diskette as a raw image and not as a file within the MS-DOS filesystem. You need to use something like rawrite.exe or dd under unix.

Our intellect can be deceived, our feelings can be numbed and manipulated, our perceptions shamed and confused, our bodies tricked with medication, but our soul never forgets. And because we are one, one whole soul in one body, someday our body will present its bill. The wounded and lost child is only in hiding; the soul is still whole in spirit. Ultimately, our deepest self will accept no compromises or excuses, and it will not stop tormenting or contaminating us until we stop evading the truth.

However, it seems that the treatment of removable SCSI devices is different in 2.2.6 than it was in 2.2.2. Its an AHA-2940UW in this case, with 2 HDs and a Jaz. The AHA-2940UW config has not changed between upgrades, and has 'Send Start Unit' enabled on all devices. Before, I was able to /sbin/mount a spun-down Jaz drive, which, presumably, sent a start-unit to the drive, spun it up, and /sbin/mount continued (with a few warning messages about the media having changed). Now, I can only /sbin/mount when its still spinning, ie. just after use or just after a reboot. If I try after it has spun down I'm told '/dev/sd2a on /jaz: Device not configured'. I can manually start it up (re-insert) and /sbin/mount will mount it. A scsi -f /dev/ssc -p reveals "nothing" for that SCSI device when it is spun-down and "iomega jaz 1GB" when it is spun-up. The other workaround is to /sbin/mount at boot and leave it mounted. Its no great drama, the Jaz users now have 2 extra steps, a /sbin/umount before they are able to take the cart out, and a /sbin/mount after they put the original cart back. regards, taras ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taras M.

No, these are the older 5400 and 7200(?) models. Plenty fast enough for us. Unfortunately, the 5400s are getting scarce, but if you can find them they're generally <$250 for 4.5GB Ultra-Wide.

Does anybody help me? This belongs in FreeBSD-questions - I've moved it there. I also believe the problem is probably your FTP clients rather than the NATD code, but I can't guarantee this. natd is somewhat dependent on how that packets are constructed, but this shouldn't matter at _that_ stage - only when you do an LS or GET.

Each have advantages and disadvantages. I don't like either very much. I would like to head toward FreeBSD 2.2.6 as the network OS for a new network with about 50 DOS, WfW, and Windows NT, and even MAC clients. I'm looking for answers to the following questions. I apologize there are so many; I've tried to put the most important ones first. Oh - this network is not for Monsanto Company. 1) Client Connectivity - we will have DOS clients, as well as WfW, Win95, NT, and perhaps even MAC. WfW, Win95, and NT are easy. What about DOS and MAC? Should I use NFS or Samba? 2) Robustness, Reliability - IMO NT doesn't come close to Netware. Can I realistically put my companies files on a FreeBSD box? (with backups, of course!) Do I need a HP-9000 with HP-UX? 3) What sort of a machine do I need. "Jordan's picks" seem oriented toward workstations. RAID? SCSI? Tape backups? 4) What about network administration? Is FreeBSD realistically usable in the office environment? 5) How does FreeBSD handle open files during automatic backups? 6) Will FreeBSD support typical printers such as HP 5's with JetDirect software? Or must I connect the printer to the parallel port? Is one or the other way better then the other? 7) What about virus immunity? 8) What about security, both general security and file isolation to particular users in my user community? 9) Are there e-mail clients for the WfW, Win95, NT, DOS, and MAC platforms that can use the FreeBSD server for the mail? 10) Should X be a part of a server's configuration?, or does it consume too many resources? 11) In Netware, client configurations are "server-based" (via login scripts). Is this possible using a FreeBSD server? (I think this is a not really.) 12) What's going on with the move toward UNC file locators from drive mappings? Should I care? 13) Is NDS really necessary to have? 14) In the future, we may require an MRP II manufacturing system. Will my legs be broken, or should I just get at that time the necessary server for our chosen MRP software? 15) Can I use DOS, WfW, Win95, NT, MAC clients for MySQL connectivity? 16) Finally, is FreeBSD going away? I hope not. It's what I use most at home and I've set it up everywhere I go. It's a really great product. I may have the opportunity to apply it in a new way. I'll be looking into these, but advice from other users seems to be the best resource when it comes to FreeBSD. Thanks.

I don't like either very much. Agreed on all points. IMHO, if you want to fit absolutely round pegs in round holes, you're probably slightly better off sticking with traditional LAN NOSes if you merely want to offer file/print/directory/etc. services to LAN users. Yes, FreeBSD can probably do the job (especially if you're willing to roll up your sleeves a bit), but the others may be better suited to it. FreeBSD's strength is as an Internet server, where it is (IMHO, again) virtually unparalleled. > 1) Client Connectivity - we will have DOS clients, as well as WfW, > Win95, NT, and perhaps even MAC. WfW, Win95, and NT are easy. What > about DOS and MAC? Should I use NFS or Samba? As you say, the SMB-enabled OSes are easy, using Samba. For DOS boxes and Macs to access files (using whichever method) you'll probably need (commercial) third party software. This is the sort of problem you don't have with (say) Netware. > 2) Robustness, Reliability - IMO NT doesn't come close to Netware. Can > I realistically put my companies files on a FreeBSD box?

"Jordan's picks" seem oriented > toward workstations. RAID? SCSI? Tape backups? FreeBSD does better and better if you go for high-end hardware, it seems. As of 2.2.6, drivers are included for DPT RAID controllers. I've set up a server with about 100GB (after RAID) disk space, and a Seagate AIT (25GB native) tape drive. FreeBSD is very SCSI-friendly. > 4) What about network administration? Is FreeBSD realistically > usable in the office environment? Again, FreeBSD is suited to administer the sort of networks it's supposed to serve. It's probably not Netware's equal for the administration of LAN users. > 5) How does FreeBSD handle open files during automatic backups? Depends on the software you're using for the backup, I would assume. I'll let those with more knowledge tackle that one. > 6) Will FreeBSD support typical printers such as HP 5's with JetDirect > software? Or must I connect the printer to the parallel port? Is one > or the other way better then the other? I don't think you're going to get away with anything except directly connected printers. Also, how are you going to give your users access to the printers? You can do so via Samba, or standard lpd/lp if your clients support it. Again, this is not really what FreeBSD was made for, IMHO. > 7) What about virus immunity? A virus, _per se_, makes little sense in the Unix paradigm. However it is of course quite possible that some of the (say) DOS files on your fileserver may contain DOS viruses. There are as far as I know DOS virus scanners available for FreeBSD. > 8) What about security, both general security and file isolation to > particular users in my user community? Very good. Make friends with smb.conf. :-) > 9) Are there e-mail clients for the WfW, Win95, NT, DOS, and MAC > platforms that can use the FreeBSD server for the mail? Anything that supports POP3 and/or IMAP. In a LAN situation as that which you describe, it would probably be best to go for IMAP, since that means that all mail folders are kept on the server (as would be the case with most LAN-based mail systems). > 10) Should X be a part of a server's configuration?, or does it consume > too many resources? It _is_ hungry.

(I think this is a not really.) I suppose there's no limit to what you can do with some creative Perl/shell scripting.

The great thing about FreeBSD/Samba is that there is almost no upkeep, aside from new additions. My FreeBSD server ran for 300 days straight serving 30 windows 95 PCs, without any intervention, though I just took it down to add a few new hard drives. > 5) How does FreeBSD handle open files during automatic backups? > I have not had any problems here. The biggest problem is going to be with large database files that may partly change during the backup process.

You can certainly use xv or xli or any number of other image programs to set the background. I don't use fvwm, but I imagine you could do something in your .fvwmrc like I do for afterstep: xv -root -quit -rmode 0 background_pics/ball.jpg You may need an "exec" in front of this. Your other option is to put a line like this in your .xsession or .xinitrc.

I made the boot disk correctly as far as I can tell. I booted off it went through the kernel configuration, all my hardware was seen just fine (except my AWE64, I can't remember what the deal was with it, but it didn't seem like it was causing any problem). Anyway, after that the installation went on and I pick "All" for what to install, "Anonymous FTP" for installation and chose "www6.freebsd.org" for the server (I'm pretty sure that's the one in Indiana and that's fairly close to me) >From what I remember next was the network configuration, and I think this is where I need help. Filling out that form to my best abilities (name server, domain, ip address(local?), netmask, etc...) I did manage to get over to VTY3 and dial out and logon, etc... there I was given the option to start a PPP session so I did, nothing much happened so I ALT-F1'ed over to the installation and got a message that www6.freebsd.org couldn't be found and then my modem disconnected itself. I've got a feeling that my network configuration entries aren't correct, so my questions are: 1) What answers are absolutely necessary to the installation? 2) If I don't know the answers where can I find them (a FreeBSD installation utility that tells me my IP address, my ISP's web site for domain, etc...) ? 3) What do I need to accomplish in the terminal? 4) Anything else that I might need to know. I looked on the web site and some of what was there sounded like what was happening to me but I wanted to make sure I had this part right before going on. FYI: My ISP is MCI at "campus.mci.net" so I put 'capmus.mci.net' for the DNS and '.mci.net' for the domain but I'm not sure whether that's actually the real info (I'm almost sure its not (I do have a descent knowledge of networks, just not enough)) or even what the installation is asking for.

Umm, I'm kind of confused about this. The back/admin server crashed, and you can't seem to restore it. You installed FreeBSD instead of that server. You want to install a backup mail server on it, and you want to know if the Linux sendmail will work with FreeBSD. The short answer is, kinda :) You can run the same sendmail, with the same config file, but you have to recompile to to run on FreeBSD. I'm not sure about the directory structure, but yo might just want to copy the config file (sendmail.cf), and recompile sendmail to run on FreeBSD.

You will have to modify `popper'. You can get the source at http://www.eudora.com/ somewhere in teh freeware section. This isn't hard. THere is a define called `USERHOMEDIR' or something like that. Once you've defined it, it will look in $HOME/.mail. If the path differes, you will have to modify the filename in `pop_dropcopy.c' or something like that.

I forgot the root password! Well, actually I didn't forget it, I set it, but then the system sorta crashed and now it doesn't recognize it anymore. So I went to the FAQ and it said to do this: (boot up in single user mode) mount -u / passwd root mount -a exit i have two things about this: a)it doesn't work -- i get a "passwd not found" command -- anything I can do except reinstall from scratch? (full system from FTP -- i'd rather not :-) and b) if it DOES work -- itsn't it a serious security issue that anyone with the access to the FAQ (which is every literate person in the world!) can get root password? i know that it's probably not, but i would just like to be explained WHY not, if possible. Thanks again! Roman.

Well guess what? It is! In section 2.3, "What do I need in order to run FreeBSD?" "You'll need a 386 or better PC, with 5 MB or more of RAM and at least 60 MB of hard disk space. It can run with a low end MDA graphics card but to run X11R6, a VGA or better video card is needed." And it is also in: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.6-RELEASE/INSTALL.TXT FreeBSD requires a 386 or better processor to run (sorry, there is no support for '286 processors), 5 megs of RAM to install and 4 megs of ram to run. You will need at least 80 megs of hard drive space free on either a dedicated disk or a "primary," (not extended partition, to use the DOS terminology). See below for ways to shrink existing DOS partitions to install FreeBSD. Keep in mind these are minimum requirements for a base system. Now..my question is: Why does one say 60 and one say 80?

You need to get all the information from your ISP. They don't need to know that you're using FreeBSD (tell them that and they'll either look at the phone funny or they'll say they don't support UNIX.) Just ask for the nameservers, domain, gateway, and netmask. In general: Host: Whatever you want. Give your computer a name. Domain: mci.net probably. (get from them) Gateway: Get from them. Nameserver: 204.71.75.133 (I'm guessing here, verify with them. It looks like they have 4 nameservers. You just enter the primary here. You can add up to two additional later.)

I'm a total Newbie! Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'd like to install FreeBSD on my current PC. I have a Pentium Pro 200, 64 M RAM, etc. I have about 7 GB HDD, with 6 of it divided up on one hard drive. Basically, I have three available partitions that are logical to the primary DOS partition. (I think that's how I did it.) It may be a primary, with the extended partition housing the logicals. At any rate, do I need to do anything special to one of these partitions prior to installation of FreeBSD on it? I'm currently running Windows 95, and I'll have to retain it for printing needs, at least until I'm assured of successful printing from within FreeBSD. Any comments or help would be greatly appreciated.

I have FreeBSD, release 2.2.5 ( 4 CDROM), Tue Oct 21 but it panics when I boot after the install process. I get "PANIC: cannot mount root". I have a AMD K6 200 MHz, 32 MB RAM, CDROM 16x, Sound Blaster 16 and 2 hard disks (3 MB and 1.2 MB respectively). My BIOS is Award Modular BIOS w4.51PG When my computer boots, I can read: HDD Primary Master - QUANTUM FIREWALL ST 3.2A HDD Primary Slave Master - None HDD Secondary Master - Seagate Technology HDD Secondary Master Slave - CRD 8160 B In the first disk I have two DOS partitions (C and D) with Windows95 installed in C. When I choose booting from the second hard disk (Seagate) where FreeBSD has been installed: . . . FreeBSD 2.2.5 Tue Oct 21 ... . . . boot: . (if I type any command at this point, the system does not recognize them, for example -v, and it loops for ever till I reset the computer). . . . wdc0:unit0(wd0) wd0: 3079 MB . . . wdc1: unit0(wd2) wd2: 1221 MB . . . wdc1: unit1(atapi) . . . changing root device to wd1a PANIC: cannot mount root I should tell you that in the install process I choose the second disk (wd2 - Seagate) to install FreeBSD with this distribution: Disk name: wd2 Disk Geometry: 620 cyls/64 heads/63 sectors = 2499840 sectors offset size end Name Ptype Desc Subtype Flags 0 63 62 ------- 6 unused 0 63 2499777 2499839 wd2s1 3 freebsd 165 CA 2499840 2016 2501855 ------- 6 unused 0 Another screen: Part Mount Size wd2s1a / 40 MB wd2s1b swap 128 MB SWAP wd2s1e /var 40 MB wd2s1f /usr 1012 MB I choose to have MBR in both disks (wd0 and wd2) The installation goes OK and when I try to boot I get the message of PANIC. Could you help me somehow ? I have another doubt: when I am setting a new user in the install process, the system does not recognize bash as shell, only bin/csh (or something like that), why? I look forward hearing from you.

I'm using FreeBSD version 2.2.2. Everything has been working quite well I've only run into two issues: 1. I can't find the equivalent to Sun's automounter on FreeBSD. Is there one? 2. I'm using DNS. When I address a machine that's in the hosts file I get a message on the console (as in this time I tried to do a ping to ws098): Jan 24 14:31:28 rtss12 ping : gethostby*. gethostanswer: asked for "ws098", got"ws098.SanDiegoCA.NCR.COM" the ping then works. If the machine is not in the hosts file I get the same message on the console and the ping returns: ping: unknown host ws151 Is there some way to tell FreeBSD to ignore the domain added to the machine name. The Suns and other unix machines don't exhibit this behavior. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It uses a partition of it's own type. You will need to rearrange your drive's partitions prior to doing this. (And you should learn some terminology before hand as well. It's unclear to me just exactly how many physical drives you have.) If that last 1G is completely free (Not a partition of any type) then you can install FreeBSD without having to change a thing. -===================================================================- Jeremy Shaffner JORSM Internet Senior Technical Support Northwest Indiana's Premium jer@jorsm.com Internet Service Provider support@jorsm.com http://www.jorsm.com -===================================================================- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jun 24 15:32:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA17183 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 15:32:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from nanguo.chalmers.com.au (gateway.chalmers.com.au [203.1.96.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA17109 for ; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 15:32:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from robert@chalmers.com.au) Received: from chalmers.com.au (carbon.chalmers.com.au [203.1.96.26]) by nanguo.chalmers.com.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA00291 for ; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 08:31:24 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <359180F3.868B75D2@chalmers.com.au> Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 08:42:59 +1000 From: Robert Chalmers Reply-To: robert@chalmers.com.au Organization: chalmers.com.au X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions Subject: Still trying to determine why ppp fails to reconnect - with error Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm still trying to determine why ppp will fail to reconnect, giving the error message about being unable to uu_unlock /usr/run/cuaa0.if If taken out the tun0 lines from the sysconfig, and restart it now using .../rc.d/ppp.sh, so I'll see how that goes.

                         The Question
   
       Isn't it amazing how few of us ask ourselves the important 
  question?
       Several years ago I was invited to hear an important speaker 
  address the student body of a small college in South Carolina. The 
  auditorium was filled with students excited about the opportunity 
  to hear a person of her stature speak. After the governor gave the 
  introduction, the speaker moved to the microphone, looked at the 
  audience from left to right, and began:
       "I was born to a mother who was deaf and could not speak. I 
  do not know who my father is or was. The first job I ever had was 
  in a cotton field."
       The audience was spellbound. "Nothing has to remain the way it 
  is if that's not the way a person wants it to be," she continued. 
  "It isn't luck, and it isn't circumstances, and it isn't being born 
  a certain way that causes a person's future to become what it 
  becomes." And she softly repeated, "Nothing has to remain the way 
  it is if that's not the way a person wants it to be.
       "All a person has to do," she added in a firm voice, "to change 
  a situation that brings unhappiness or dissatisfaction is answer the 
  question: "How do I want this situation to become?" Then the person 
  must commit totally to personal actions that carry them there."
       Then a beautiful smile shone forth as she said, "My name is Azie 
  Taylor Morton. I stand before you today as treasurer of the United 
  States of America."

This device provides a number of physical interfaces (eg RS232, V25) to a Frame Relay, X25, or PPP network using "variants" of HDLC as the link level protocol (LAPD, LAPB, etc). It seems a wonderful product and I am very pleased with Mr Dennis Bauschs responsive and informed help. Unfortunately I am having trouble getting the ET card to work. My symptoms are *no* frames sent to the CSU/DSU (so the ET software quite correctly reports the link is down since the LMI status enquiry frames it generates do not get replies from the Frame relay network) although the cards debug mechanism reports that frames are being generated (the hex contents are displayed on the console). I am using FreeBSD 2.2.5-R on a 486 Micronics main board. The ET ISA card uses IRQ 5 and IO address 0x240. vmstat -i shows that this board and an NE2000 compatible have different IRQs and are generating interupts. I have unsuccessfully tried changing the clock sense of the CSU/DSU and interchanging the 2 cards (ether and ET). Thank you, Yours sincerely.

A few weeks ago i was curious how the 'Auto Defaults for all' option in /stand/sysinstall disklabel assigned the partition sizes. So i looked at the sysinstall source code and noticed the following minimums for the filesystem: root_minimum = 20 MB swap_minimum = 16 MB usr_minimum = 80 MB var_minimum = 30 MB for a total of 146 MB, since the /usr filesystem gets all the remaining diskspace it will complain if < 80 MB is available for it.

I need to have root access to my server from a telnet session because I am not always in front of the computer, but, well, I think I've found a new love... I think everyone on this list will understand this love. When I try to login to my server as root, it tells me that the login is incorrect. I've also tried to login as a normal user and then rlogin as root (this works for Red Hat 5.1). I've double and triple checked the password I'm typing in is correct. Now, secondly, like I said I'm new to this stuff. Is there a way to list all of the user accounts that have been created. With FTP access built into FreeBSD, is it possible to limit the person to only the FTP directory and sub-directories beneath that? And lastly, I installed one of the POP3 e-mail servers in the ports section c-something, I don't know. What is the generally used e-mail package used for POP3 stuff? I've tried to send e-mail to it using the ip-number (because I don't have a domain registered) and it didn't work. Is there something I have to do on the FreeBSD end of it, or do I merely need a domain name? and if I need a domain name, will the whatever.home.ml.org (ml.org) domains work? -Happy Man -Douglas L.

But, I think I can help. The two addresses OSPF are complaining about are the class D multicast addresses that OSPF uses to send Hello packets and Link state updates to. 224.0.0.5 is the universal OSPF address. All OSPF routers should be able to listen at this address. 224.0.0.6 is listened to by designated routers and back designated routers. This explains why you have so much usage on 224.0.0.5, and very little on 224.0.0.6. However, the reason you're getting errors in your log file could be due to an error in gated. OSPF does require an interface configured with IP in order to run. On networks that support multicast (i.e. ethernet) OSPF maps IP multicast addresses to MAC addresses. If you don't have an ethernet card configured for OSPF, this could also be why you're getting the errors.

Can anyone tell me what it means? This may be due to two things AFAIK: 1) IRQ 7 is used by the parallel port, which you say is broken. Since the interrupt must be enabled by a bit in the port register i don't thing this is the cause of the 'stray irq 7'. (IMO) 2) IRQ 7 can also be generated by the 8259 Programmable Interrupt Controller (PIC) when the Interrupt Reuest (IR) line does not remain high until the falling edge of the Interrupt Acknowledge (INTA) line. This is called a spurious interrupt and generates what Intel calls a DEFAULT IRQ 7, which shows up as an unmaskable irq 7 without an interrupting device (determined by PIC status bits), this is most likely the cause of the 'stray irq 7'. (again IMO) It is possible that you have a card that does not generate proper interrupt signals, i once had a 486 mother-board where the hd controller card generated a DEFAULT IRQ 7 for every controller interrupt (irq 14). In DOS , irq 7 is simply ignored (handler does an interrupt return), but FreeBSD must capture it. Run 'vmstat -i' to show what the interrupt is doing.

Golly, it varies. It depends. Here's the disk usage of a system of mine, a 486/33, which is rather minimal, to my way of thinking. It has a basic developer installation, and these packages: [root@lucy /usr]# pkg_info -a | grep Information | cut -f3 -d" " elm-2.4ME+38: lynx-2.8rel.2: less-332: fetchmail-4.3.8: procmail-3.11p7: vim-4.6: pgp-5.0i: tcp_wrappers-7.6: linux_lib-2.4: lrzsz-0.12.16: kermit-6.0.192: minicom-1.78: rdate-1.0: Also a "bash" from outside the pkg system. (~1.5MB) Disk usage: [root@lucy /root]# df -k Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s4a 31775 19605 9628 67% / <-- the min. to boot /dev/wd0s4f 102911 88371 6308 93% /usr /dev/wd0s4e 29727 16648 10701 61% /var [root@lucy /root]# The total disk usage is ~130 MB, not counting swap. (I think I have about 60MB for swap on lucy, more than I need.) This is a non-X "developer" installation, i.e. it has manpages and the C compiler and related tools. These all go under /usr. A breakdown of /usr: [root@lucy /usr]# du -s * Sizes in K 12033 bin Executables 1 compat 2 etc 1750 games 3690 include Needed only for development 1 info 9207 lib libraries. Could be heavily trimmed (50-75% "fluff") 68 libdata 5135 libexec miscellaneous daemons, parts of the C compiler 7715 local optional stuff I use 1 man 101 mdec stuff 1 obj 3785 sbin system admin tools 26714 share man pages, and related material 18166 src I have kernel sources installed. [root@lucy /usr]# A minimal system can probably be shovelled into a 60MB disk. Then there's picoBSD, sizes like 1.5MB. Some volunteer should do clean installs of each of the options and report the results. I might have an empty disk coming on line next week, so if no one beats me to it, I'll try to remember to give it a shot. It would make a nice addition to the sysintall screen.

Telnet to the machine, and login as yourself. Then type ``su''. This will prompt you for root's password. Once you successfully enter it, you will be root.

A couple points to note: 1) you may need to type in the full pathname of the commands depending on how you setup your shell profile and login classes (That is, login classes do not apply to single user mode. Only shell profiles do.) 2) the FAQ needs to be updated. > and > > b) if it DOES work -- itsn't it a serious security issue that anyone > with the access to the FAQ (which is every literate person in the > world!) can get root password? i know that it's probably not, but i > would just like to be explained WHY not, if possible. Nah, in single user mode, user interaction with the computer is limited to the console device which is either a serial terminal or the computer's monitor and keyboard. If you're that close to the computer, you could probably give it a good swift kick and do more damage than any break-in over the network. :-) Aaron To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jun 24 19:40:49 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA27012 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 19:40:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA26881 for ; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 19:40:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA16976; Wed, 24 Jun 1998 19:39:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Wed, 24 Jun 1998 19:39:46 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: nbritt@bbtel.com cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: need help In-Reply-To: <358FDDBB.DBFC10B5@bbtel.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 Tue, 23 Jun 1998 nbritt@bbtel.com wrote: > I am using a 133 mhz computer with a k5 processor and an infotel modem I > ahve been trying to learn how to use the freebsd software I ordered the > software and the book from walnut creek. when I do the install (i > allocated 1 gig for freebsd) and i get to the part about configuring ppp > it works fine I can connect but once I run the bsd OS and I try to > connect I can't also when I load the commnacations software it say that > the kermit package can not be found alond with a couple of others I don't understand where you're having the problem.

Reply-To: aaron@csh.rit.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.84e Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings FreeBSD team, The answer for question 8.20, "Eek! I forgot the root password," fails to work because passwd lives on /usr which may not be mounted. /usr may be mounted if dropping into single user mode from multiuser mode, but most people who forget the root password realize so only after a power cycle. The following sequence of commands works for me. # /sbin/mount -a # /usr/bin/passwd root # exit Note also that the full pathname of the commands may be required since login classes are not available and many people do not explicitly put PATH in their shell profiles. (Well, /usr/bin isn't necessary, but it doesn't hurt.)

If you require higher end stuff, look to Sun or SMP Alphas from digital (well, what's left of digital), running Solaris or DEC Unix, respectively. Or divide and conquer with multiple FreeBSD boxes. Hmm, I've seen benchmarks of single PPro FreeBSD outperforming double PPro NT. Yahoo uses F'BSD. Lots of mission-critical stuff is held on 'nix boxes, including the free 'nixes. The file system code is very mature and reliable -- it dates from the early '80s, is public knowledge, and has been dragged through the coals on a huge variety of hardware. NT is using either a floppy-disk fs, or /new/ code, written in secret by a company with a less than stellar reputation for software quality. Buy /reliable/ hardware, though. "Waste" a lot of money on the backup tape drive. Better a flakey disk than a flakey tape. Only M$ salesmen believe that NT is reliable enough for "bet the company" applications. I shudder at the thought. A unix system "panic" is cause for severe alarm, and great surprise. Sirens go off...people run around, dumps are taken, analyzers are thrown on networks, heads are scratched, hackers are called in from home, and crackers are suspected. Vendors are notified, and then they get /real worried/, too. OTOH, an NT "bluescreen" is Standard Operating Procedure. Uptime on a conservative Unix system can be measured in months or years, not hours, /under continual load/. Compare the flurry of activity when a bug is reported to a FreeBSD list, as opposed to "This may be fixed in the next release". A prime 'BSD design goal is "NO BUGS". A prime NT design goal is "MARKET LEVERAGE". The only reasons to reinstall a Unix system is hardware failure or system upgrade. (9999/10000 times. There are exceptions...) Glitches in applications or daemons usually don't hose the whole system. Rebooting should be /rare/. Expect 24/7 operation. Only P-C OS's are not designed this way. A 16-bit application running on a default NT system, has access to kernel address space. Shudder. (Am I right about that? Thought I read that somewhere.) I think that NT apps by default have access to I/O space. (same question? Is this true?) When I ran old VAX hardware, a system crash was considered a fully justified reason for on-site manufacturer's field service. > 3) What sort of a machine do I need. "Jordan's picks" seem oriented > toward workstations. RAID? SCSI? Tape backups? The initial purchase cost should be downplayed. /For the same capabilities/, a FreeBSD (or any 'nix system) will end up being cheaper than NT, and probably cheaper than Netware. For a robust file-server, mail router, etc, go with SCSI. Consider no alternatives like IDE -- it is a small economy and a major admin and performance hit. If you go IDE, you will find yourself eventually going SCSI when you need to expand, or when loads reach a certain level. Start with SCSI. Go RAID if you need it. An IDE system just won't cut it for multi-user serving or heavy db hits. The difference between a $10k and a $15k initial acquisition comes out to about 5000/36 = 138$/month. This is about one man-hour of labor, or one business lunch for two, or ... Put it in the proper perspective. > 4) What about network administration? Is FreeBSD realistically > usable in the office environment? It was born there. Administration is typically done by an expert. The ease of administering NT is grossly overstated. The difficulty of dealing with 'nix is also overstated. Consider where these statements come from. For one thing, Unix has disk quotas. NT doesn't, AFAIK. > 5) How does FreeBSD handle open files during automatic backups? Depends. Nothing will handle them correctly given the nature of the filesystems used on the systems under consideration. (I think :) > 6) Will FreeBSD support typical printers such as HP 5's with JetDirect > software? Or must I connect the printer to the parallel port? Is one > or the other way better then the other? Well it won't run Windoze device drivers. Printer sharing with directly connected printers is an old Unix capability. > 7) What about virus immunity? This is a DOS/Windoze problem. They can be propagated /through/ unix servers, but don't affect them. Unix has a different set of vandalism problems. The general impression is that the "free" Unix communities respond /very/ rapidly to these problems, and never seem to adopt the ostrich attitude. The advantage of being able to apply open- source bug fixes /to the source code/ cannot be underestimated. The fix can get out to the world in a matter of hours, and /you/ can see exactly what it is. > 8) What about security, both general security and file isolation to > particular users in my user community? File security is weak, compared to mainframe systems. Overall security will be much more than NT. The NT file security model (Access Control Lists) is "better" than Unix's frankly crude model, but the implementation of NT's security may leave much to be desired. In short, what a Unix system says it does, it usually does do. > 9) Are there e-mail clients for the WfW, Win95, NT, DOS, and MAC > platforms that can use the FreeBSD server for the mail? Sure. > 10) Should X be a part of a server's configuration?, or does it consume > too many resources? It depends what you call "too many". On a big fast machine with plenty of disc, which is what we're talking about, X's footprint will be tiny. Who's going to use it? If you're talking about an admin at the console using X-based tools, the impact is going to be small. Just don't play quake or whatever on the server. (At least during busy time). Or run a graphical browser. X will run OK on a 486/33 + 16MB memory. That's a /rough/ statement of its demands for running some xterms. Hmm: you can, of course, stick an /actual/ 486 like that on the net, and remotely administer /everything/. Can't do that with NT, AFAIK. Can you admin NT over a modem? > 11) In Netware, client configurations are "server-based" (via login scripts). > Is this possible using a FreeBSD server? (I think this is a not really.) The philosophy is a little different. Unix is more "client based", I think. But I'm not authoritative here! I'm not sure what you mean, probably because I don't know diddly about Netware. > 16) Finally, is FreeBSD going away? I hope not. It's what I use most > at home and I've set it up everywhere I go. It's a really great product. > I may have the opportunity to apply it in a new way. Suppose you committed to it fully. Suppose FreeBSD was then outlawed. You could be up and running on a Net- or OpenBSD system in a day, on Linux in two days. Changing the hardware, you could migrate to DEC Unix or Solaris or HP-UX with ease. Tell your bosses that Unix is "second sourced". Now suppose NT were outlawed. Recall that there is a big nasty court case going on with its sole-source. The BSD's have already (1980's) been in and out of court, and are "clean" now. Other arguments: Equipment that would be trashed in an all-NT shop (like old high-end 486's) can do /useful/ work in a Unix shop, and integrate "seamlessly". Stick NT workstation on endusers' desks (if they demand it), and use unix systems for everything else. Well, enough. sorry for any blather.

It is built directly on top of Xlib and has been carefully optimized for performance. JX comes with a complete test suite that demonstrates all of the features of the library and a set of tutorial programs that introduce the major concepts, one at a time. This provides a rich source of sample code, both for top level application design and for individual widget classes. It also shows how to extend the functionality of the library by, for example, creating custom tables or menu layouts. JX also includes a complete C++ development environment (Code Crusader). Among other features, this includes a graphical class browser to help you visualize and understand the inheritance relationships between the classes and to search for all the classes that implement a particular function."

Why not just replace the gateway with a FreeBSD box and run natd on it, and set up the windows machines to do tcp/ip directly (if they aren't already)? natd is very transparent and can handle most types of traffic without modification.

You can use any CPU, but ASUS, Abit, and VIA motherboards are pretty good. Gets lots of RAM. If you really want RAID then you'll have to get a DPT SCSI controller (not a bad thing tho).

I left an earlier message about trying to find install.bat but it turn's out it's not really needed or it's just included within the novice installation from the boot disk. After playing with the partition size I got enough room to do the install. I have 1 hard drive with a small 50 meg dos partition including the downloaded distribution files. I created the boot floppy went through novice install, all installed, I rebooted the bootmanager came up with dos and FREEBSD boot choices, Dos boots OK but..... FREEBSD reports that it can't find the boot config or boot help. Oh I have searched the surly bonds of FAQ and new groups and didn't see my answer though I well could have missed it. It is hard to believe that I'm discovering anything new and though I would greatly appreciate help directly related to this problem I would even more appreciate directions to some user friendly type guide that would answer these questions (and if point me to somewhere in the install quide or an easily located source - I'll eat my hard drive) Any help would be appreciated.

If you could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. setup.exe is known to be broken. There should be an INSTALL.BAT on the top level of CD 1 through that starts the kernel for the install though.

That's right. I left out a `mount -a' before using `passwd'. Thanks for pointing it out.

These are new (I think) features to cp. Tar produces an archive, i.e. a single file, as output, thus suiting it for writing to character devices, like tapes. Also, tar has lots of swell switches to play with. Cpio (ATT's answer to tar, i.e. a SysV program) is yet another option. This is part of the Joy of Unix -- several subtly incompatible ways of doing the same thing. Makes for variety. Like shells and text editors.

Reply-To: "Ronald C.F. Antony" X-Direct-Marketers: Add me to your do-not-solicit list Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, to start it all off: I do NOT want to start some religious debate about which of the various free BSD systems or Linux is better, I just would like to know what are the differences. I was perusing the various web sites, and couldn't find the proper answers... Of course, everyone says they want a free OS, scalable, correctly implemented, etc. Unfortunately, there is little actual information. From the various web sites, I gather, that FreeBSD is optimized for PC systems, while adding support for other platforms. NetBSD seems to aim at pretty much every system under the sun (including my good old NeXT hardware...) and OpenBSD seems to be aiming at maximum security. Of course, I want it all :-) A BSD system that runs on my NeXT and PCs, with maximum security, and as fast as possible. But seriously: - how compatible are the sources across the various versions? - are there active efforts to keep the various versions somewhat in sync and compatible, or will we eventually look at the old UNIX fragmentation that already was the pleague in the SysV vs. BSD days? - Where does Linux fit in? Is it more SysV oriented? Is it more BSDish? What about the Hurd? - Are the device drivers compatible across the different versions, e.g. could I use the NetBSD boot block and device drivers to get NeXT hardware support, but use it with OpenBSD to get the crypto and security functionality that a US based effort can't offer? - What, if any, are the philosophical differences? (I will decide myself what I like better :-) but what are they? I mean there have to be some, or else some people wouldn't get so religious about it...) - Are all these systems using the GNU tools, or are some using them, and others have their own versions of the standard UNIX tools? Given the general stability (e.g. when tested against random data streams) of GNU tools, why should I want to use these other tools? - What plans, if any, are there to move any of these projects towards a (MACH-based ?) microkernel with user-level servers (sort of like what Hurd is planning and mkLinux is doing to some degree... This list of questions could go on and on. Obviously all of these efforts deserve our thanks and support, but it would be helpful if there were actual facts on which to base the decision of the OS of choice... (Well, with my NeXT hardware, there is currently not much of a choice, but that's another issue...) Greetings, and thanks a lot for taking the effort of answering these questions. Adding them to the various FAQs would help...

Okie, tried to change it to flags=0x10, but it still crashed. :< I have searched thru the mailing list archive, and found someone mentioned about it. The solution is to add the below options to the kernel. # Enable this and PCVT_FREEBSD for pcvt vt220 compatible console driver device vt0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 1 vector pcrint # This PCVT option is for keyboards such as those used on IBM ThinkPad laptops options PCVT_SCANSET=2 # IBM keyboards are non-std Now the problem is, how can I build a custom bootfloppy?

Nothing compatible. If you have BSD/OS, you should be able to run installsw on FreeBSD. Otherwise you'll find that the main archive is a tar file, and you'll have to extract it manually with tar. I seem to remember that there's some doubt about the base directory into which the software gets installed, but you should be able to figure it out.

Each has a local static ip address in the following form: Tom's machine: 192.168.0.42 Sheila's machine: 192.168.0.48 Floras Machine: 192.168.0.41 etc... The midpoint gateway is currently set to 192.168.0.1. This machine is assigned a dynamic ip address (on the dialup adapter) upon connection with our ISP. The midpoint gateway then forwards all traffic in and out as appropriate. It usually works for http (WWW), but is very inconsistant for things shuch as email. These inconsistancies are why I would like to switch out the midpoint in favor of something that is more reliable (that I don't have to babysit). I invision this gateway using the ip address of 192.168.0.1 on the network card. It then dials up the ISP whenever it detects any internet traffic (ie. www.cnn.com or ftp.cdrom.com, or pop3/smtp, etc...). After all traffic has stopped for a few minutes, it will disconnect from the isp, and then wait for more traffic, once it sees it, the dialup/connnect process begins again. I will go with this method if I am given simple instructions (a point to the appropriate docs) on how to accomplish this task. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Samba is a suite of tools which allows your average Unix box to participate in file/printer sharing on a LanManager-style (e.g. Microsoft) network. As a kind soul on this list recently pointed out to me, the latest versions of Samba ship with a tool called "smbmount", which will allow you to mount a share exported by Win95 or NT. Samba is available in the FreeBSD ports collection. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 25 03:28:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA07208 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 03:28:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from server.gov.sk (server.gov.sk [195.28.132.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA07201 for ; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 03:28:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bajcsi@employment.gov.sk) Received: from artemis.employment.gov.sk (artemis.employment.gov.sk [172.16.17.3]) by server.gov.sk (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id MAA07632 for ; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 12:27:13 +0200 (MET DST) Received: from [10.1.11.205] by artemis.employment.gov.sk (5.65v3.2/1.1.10.5/13Jan98-1049AM) id AA17077; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 12:28:18 +0200 Received: by bajcsi with Microsoft Mail id <01BDA034.4C94B6C0@bajcsi>; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 12:25:11 +0200 Message-Id: <01BDA034.4C94B6C0@bajcsi> From: Norvert Bajcsi To: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: Information Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 11:58:59 +0200 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 Pleas send me more information about in freebsd operation system on Long filenames (install, mount) to my address : bajcsi@employment.gov.sk Thank you !

I assume he's talking about this: If /var/mail/$LOGNAME is a bogus mailbox (i.e. does not belong to the recipient, is unwritable, is a symbolic link or is a hard link), procmail will upon startup try to re- name it into a file starting with `BOGUS.' and ending in BuGless 1997/04/11 12 PROCMAIL(1) PROCMAIL(1) an inode-sequence-code.

There is a list of non-US distributors at the www.cdrom.com website. Ooops: you can't get there ;) I imagine that if you email info@cdrom.com, they could inform you fully about directly ordering from them or from a distributor closer to you. The cost in the US is about US$40+shipping. They also sell "The Complete FreeBSD", a thick book that would be quite useful to you, if you don't have full net access.

But if you must login directly as root. Then you need to add the keyword 'secure' to the pty's in /etc/ttys. This is not a good way of doing things. Also, if you want to be even more secure, compile up ssh (I think it's in ports). It will give you an encrypted connection all the way.

I vaguely recall running into this. Some versions of FvwmBacker require you to put Exec in front of any command you specify in the resources, while some don't.

I believe that there is a bit of cooperation. If one group comes up with something extra espeically cool, it gets migrated back to the others. However, I believe that the splits were not all exactly friendly. Since all three have different priorities, they aren't likely to recombine any time soon. > - Where does Linux fit in? Is it more SysV oriented? Is it more BSDish? It doesn't fit. It is it's own beast. Linux is actually, just the kernel, made by Linus Torvus (sp). Then groups of anarchily organized people add libraries and utilities to it, until there is a full system. There are more Linux distributions than BSD ones. And they, apparently, all feel a little different. Much of what they use is the GNU stuff. > What about the Hurd? GNU should probably consentrate on being the glue for Linux, IMHO. After 10 years, Hurd version 0.1 is out.

FreeBSD - PC centric OpenBSD - security NetBSD - cross platform. but you already knew that. FreeBSD is also heavily centralized. Which helps provide stability.

Most obviously, gcc is the compiler. However, most of the normal tools (ls, more, cat, etc.) are from the BSD distribution. Why used BSD tools instead of GNU tools?

It really depends on what you want to do. Only you can figure this out. You have already discussed all the reasons for choosing different distributions.

Well, its usually assumed that the console is secure. This ability is only available from the console. Sure its a problem if your machine is not in a safe place, but if you dont want someone to screw with it in general (if the machine is _important_ vs a machine you are playing around with), then you really should put it in a safe place. While it could be considered a little bit of a security risk, it sure beats having to reinstall the entire OS simply because your root passwd got hosed...

Is it an MS-DOS disk? In that case, you have two options: 1. You can mount the floppy disk as an MS-DOS filesystem. See the man page for mount_msdos(8) 2. You can use the "mtools" suite of tools to access files on the floppy. There is a FreeBSD port for mtools. If it's a native FreeBSD (UFS) floppy, refer to the man page for mount(8). > I've heard about mounting the device; what is the command? How does it > work?

Shudder. >(Am I right about that? Thought I read that somewhere.) I think >that NT apps by default have access to I/O space. (same question? >Is this true?) I learned more than I wanted to know about NT last week at USENIX. The NT model looks something like this : POSIX subsystem______Win32 Subsystem______Security Subsystem (S Y S T E M S E R V I C E S) (i/o manager)(object manager)(security (process manager)(LPC)(VM)(Graphics) reference manager) M I C R O K E R N E L H A R D W A R E A B S T R A C T I O N L A Y E R the win32 subsystem passes the object to the system services, which then gives it to the I/O manager, passing it to the object manager for handling. The object manager then asks permission for the process to run or the file to be created, THEN passes it to the kernel , back to the I/O manager and to the object manager for final handling. Where code is processed during this and what address space its running in I have no clue, but this may give some idea of how NT works (and probably why its so goddamn slow) ___________________________________________________________________________ Pat Lynch lynch@rush.net Systems Administrator Rush Networking ___________________________________________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jun 25 07:11:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA13380 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 07:11:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan@dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA13328 for ; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 07:10:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA29631; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 09:10:11 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan) Message-ID: <19980625091010.A29583@emsphone.com> Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 09:10:10 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Doug White , Sue Blake Cc: RPD , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: copying/duplicating disks: replacing IDE with scsi References: <19980625133521.29606@welearn.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.92.8i In-Reply-To: ; from "Doug White" on Wed Jun 24 22:47:54 GMT 1998 X-OS: FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode (Jun 24), Doug White said: > On Thu, 25 Jun 1998, Sue Blake wrote: > > > > -R is recursively copy, -p is preserve permissions. > > > > So why is copying sometimes done with tar instead of cp? > > Tar remembers to preserve permissions, and cp won't unless you run it > -with Rp. Well, to be nitpicky, tar won't remember either, unless you add a 'p' to the extract command. But by far the biggest reason to copy with a tar|tar pipeline is the overlapping I/O. While the first tar is reading, the last tar is writing. A plain "cp -pR" can only be reading or writing at any one time. -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 Jun 25 07:27:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA15328 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 07:27:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netra.graphnet.com (netra.graphnet.com [192.206.112.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA15308 for ; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 07:26:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from romank@graphnet.com) Received: from graphnet.com (mike.graphnet.com [192.206.112.93]) by netra.graphnet.com (8.8.8/8.8.6) with ESMTP id KAA14202; Thu, 25 Jun 1998 10:26:30 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <35925F63.947F08AE@graphnet.com> Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 10:32:03 -0400 From: Roman Katsnelson X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (WinNT; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Johann Visagie , "q's" Subject: Re: Radius server References: <359233A4.6BFC@cmax2.com> <19980625144131.B1376@cityip.co.za> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I downloaded this, untarred it, made it.

Its not a bad radius at all, and attempts to block multiple logins across multiple dial in devices so its ideal for an isp... you can even configure it to let certain accounts have x amount of simultanenous logins if you wish.. the only problem I've had is using it with 3com/USR Total Control Hubs (total control netservers work fine) but the problems are with how the hub sends info to the radius software. I've hacked around it although I am not sure how good the hack is. It works, but I wouldnt bet the farm on my changes. Its defintely a problem with the hubs, not with esva radius. >I am currently trying to install the BSD/OS version of Access Control >from Ascend (download trial version from ascend.com).

Although you can load FreeBSD in only 5 meg, it won't make for a very comfortable learning experience and isn't practically useful as a general purpose *nix workstation. 8 meg will do if you aren't running X. Is there any way you can scrounge up to at least 16M? 270M is pretty tight too, although you should be able to get X+development loaded (I think). The tragedy is, you won't be able to rebuild the system to track the -STABLE branch. This would be a wonderful learning experience for you as there is some *really* good work in there to observe.

I think I may have a very basic problem here, with an easy fix except I'm not that familiar with the inner workings of sendmail. What I am trying to set up is a way to have the mail sent to just my domain name to go to one host. I set up the MX record like this: macross.net. IN NS ns.macross.net. macross.net. IN NS ns1.macross.net. ns IN A 199.217.200.30 ns1 IN A 199.217.200.31 home IN A 199.217.200.32 macross.net. IN MX 50 home.macross.net. Now.

I'm doing an identical setup here at the house. I have a FreeBSD machine running PPP over Ricochet (radio modem) back to the U. I run ppp with NAT and proxy arp enabled. An ethernet card using net 10.x.x.x addresses drops into the hub and out to the wall jacks. Completely seamless (except for CVSup), and since I got the Rico in the right place, I haven't had to touch it for the last 10 days. PPP is running -ddial anyway, so if the link dies it simply redials. The box also serves printing, DHCP, and DNS, and isn't even breaking a sweat. Neat for a P90 :-) We have FreeBSD, Windows, Mac, Rhapsody, and NeXT boxes as clients. Too bad we're three hackers sharing a 33.6k equivalent link. > I will go with this method if I am given simple instructions (a point to > the appropriate docs) on how to accomplish this task. I think there are some docs in http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp, but I can walk you through it if there's no help there.

Less than this and it's too fragmenting to use multiple FSs. You might as well have one big root, aka Greg Lehey's monolithic filesystem model.

What interface are you using to connect it to the DSU? V.35 or RS-232? As an aside -- if you're doing 56k FR then buy an Adtran DSU5600 instead and save $600. The DSU5600 speaks RS232 directly and spits out PPP, which you can drop into the PPP application of your choice. Obviously if you're doing better than 56kbps then the ET is a necessity.

This is usually indicitive of a failed install, but what happens if you hit and the Boot: prompt? boot.config and boot.help are two files in the root directory that provide a default boot: command and the usage message printed before displaying the boot: prompt.

Ugly. I don't think there's a port that's patched both ways, so you will have to hack this yourself. You may find it useful to do `make patch' to stop the port build just before it actually builds it, then figure out how the patches integrate, hack the necessary bits, then build it.

Yes, you can use ftpmail. From ABOUT.TXT: If you do not have access to the Internet and electronic mail is your only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to `ftpmail@ftpmail.vix.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism. FreeBSD is very large, so I recommend only a minimal install (just bin and the boot floppy and fdimage) to start.

I was a bit flustered, but I commented out the above line and everything seemed to work fine. Now I'm noticing that there is an error message showing up in /var/log/messages saying: Jun 25 13:52:55 ns popper[350]: (v2.41beta1) Unable to get canonical name of client, err= 0 Something has changed or become corrupted, but I have no idea what it might be. I'm guessing that it's a BSD problem since both sendmail and httpd are having trouble with it. Any ideas?

Access? Update? Anyway I think I could probably run cvsupd and then access the files on the disk (repository?) with cvsup. However, let's proceed with cvs: > > > I tried using cvs, like this: > > cd /opt/src > > # that's where I want the stuff put > > setenv CVSROOT /cdrom/CVSROOT > > cvs checkout -d . -r RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE src > > but get various error messages--I think there's something I don't > > understand about this. > > What errors do you get? The -d . argument is redundant. The error is that it can't set a lock file. However there's a -R global option (per Jordan Hubbard) to cvs that tells it it's accessing a read-only repository (or whatever you want to call it). This eliminates the lock-file error. The above (without the redundant -d argument) will then create the src directory (and appropriate subdirs) in the directory from which cvs is called. If one wants the most recent source, it might be better to leave out the -r argument or use -r HEAD; would that be correct? Many of the files include a RELENG_2_2_6_RELEASE tag (which is what I meant to write above) but with some other stuff after it, different for each file. So this tag might not get the most recent.

I have a machine connected to a subnet where I have two routers - one is a Cisco connected to our main satellite link, the other is a Livingston OR-ST which is the ISDN backup link. When we switch over to the backup link, the redirections start piling up on the FreeBSD box, because the default route points at the Cisco. When the Cisco comes back up, all those redirections cause havoc - the OR-HS's default route points to the (now down) ISDN link, which means most of the traffic from the BSD box goes to a nonworking link. There are (AFAIK) three solutions: 1. Run gated on the FreeBSD box (which I would rather not do) 2. Put the Cisco and the OR-HS into another subnet (which I don't like) 3. Inhibit IP redirects (which somebody suggested could be done with ipfw) I think I'll pick number 3).

It is possible as well to build Beowulf-style message passing clusters for parallel processing with FreeBSD by simply installing MPICH or PVM after FreeBSD has been installed. For MPICH, see http://www.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich/index.html For PVM, see http://www.epm.ornl.gov/pvm/pvm_home.html I use MPICH on a FreeBSD cluster; I haven't tried PVM on FreeBSD, but it ought to work. See also http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/ClusterCookbook/ for more info and links regarding Beowulf-style clusters.

I finally got the correct files for KDE and unTARred them in the directories, the files that someone suggested I download was the Source so I downloaded the Source and got the stuff unTarballed as I said a minute ago an then I found I need a package called QT so I toddle down to www.troll.no and downloaded the free QT-1.33 package and installed it, sounds good so far doesn't it ?? Wrong........ When I install the QT Package and type make in the directory it's in at chuggs happily along for a few seconds and then gives up with some Errors like it can't find files like qarray.h or somethin, the files are there usually in ./src/widgets or whatever, i've tried putting these into the path variable but that doesn't help, I've tried following the instructions in ftp://ftp.troll.no/qt/source/INSTALL which also gives up on the MAKE thing. I thought I could be intelligent and try instal the KDE with the SOURCE of QT and not the BINARIES, dumb idea, it doesn't work, when I run ./configure from the KDEbase dir if gives up and says that I don't have the QT headers and includes needed, when I try ./configure --with-qt-dir it gets further and tells me to try again with another prefix, can anyone help, all I want is to get the god-damned KDE so I can replace my boring old Window Manager (wm2 BTW). Also, when I try to unTarball the KDESUPPORT file it keep telling me that it can't create files and give wacky errors like 'can't create kdesupport/makefile.am no a directory' and crap like that, when I then try mkdir ./kdesupport or mkdir kdesupport or mkdir /fat16/kde/kdesupport {that's the full path} it gives an error saying can't create, file already exists........

Now when I try to unTar them I get the message about them not being GZIP when I use TAR xvfz and a message like 'Hmmm, Doesn't look like a TAR file' when I use TAR xvf , I am taking a wild guess and thinking that I need the thing mentioned on the FTP page (bzip2 or somethin ?). After I get this what is the EXACT steps I need to take to make sure KDE actually works... So far I have been told that I need to Extract make make install Is this right ??

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a slightly off-topic question: How can I approximate max number of simultaneous dial-up connections a server will support? I understand it depends on 1001 things including router, memory, etc, but are there any quidelines to ballpark this? Or may be you have experience. How increasing memory affects the number? Say I go from 128 Mb to 256 Mb, will I be able to double number of connections? What is the most critical part?

I have the 3com Etherlink III 3C509B card. I notice that it's not listed on the supported configuration list. The closest one I see on that list is 3com 3C509 card. I also notice that it has "(PCMCIA)" next to it.. Does this mean that it only supports the 3Com 3C509 PCMCIA cards? Will I have a problem with the card I have? Let me know... Thanks.

FOr obvious security reasons. Second if you need to access the root account remotely, consider adding an account for yourself, adding yourself to the "wheel" group in /etc/groups and then using 'su -' to make yourself the root user.

There are (AFAIK) three solutions: Are the hosts that are being redirected properly redirecting? We have several Cisco routers on our backbone...and two of them are "default gateways". Say I ping an address from the UltraSparc on my desk. When I ping something that ISN'T on the other side of my gateway (which amounts to everything), the USparc SHOWS the redirect. But it only shows it ONCE, because after that, it "gets a clue". We have some older digital "Unix like things" that do NOT get a clue when they are redirected...that's very annoying, because then the default gateways are working harder than they should have to because they are redirecting ALL the packets sent.

To complain about volunteers who give their time FREELY is rude at the least. Your question is one that is answered in the documentation provided by both Linux and FreeBSD documentation teams, commercial products and good-old common sense. I have loaded FreeBSD over Linux and Linux over FreeBSD without any problems (my UNIX programming instructors require that their classes use their choices of OS). Regardless, you may wish to familiarize yourself with the fdisk/Disk Druid/etc. program(s) in Linux making note that FreeBSD and Linux use different ID numbers for their partitions/slices. Also, a format (you did format your drives didn't you?) of your drive(s) will wipe them clean. Adaptec has ROM based programs that will eliminate any problem of this sort. In the future, I would encourage you to read the documentation and become familiar with the documentation before trying something like this. Knowledge of the documentation, as well as the information contained therein, has proven a great encouragement and source of help to me when things don't go well in an installation, etc. (It is amazing how the answers will jump off the page!)

There is a mailing list, subscription requests go to cisco-request@spot.colorado.edu. Be warned, it takes a long time, and the list itself is very slow to propogate. I'd recommend the newsgroup comp.dcom.sys.cisco. The mailing list is gatewayed to that group as well, and you get much faster responses there.

Date: Thu, 25 Jun 1998 21:47:55 -0600 From: Warner Losh Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG : Actually, I would say that NetBSD has security that is as good as that : of OpenBSD, as does (largely) FreeBSD. Hmmm. Although I'd love to say that FreeBSD's security is as good or better than OpenBSD's, that likely isn't the case. The same is true of NetBSD. All three have security that is actually quite good compared to many commercial OSes. However, OpenBSD's overall security is better than both FreeBSD's and NetBSD's. There are many many places where bugs that are fixed in OpenBSD have yet to be integrated into FreeBSD or NetBSD. The vast majority of them have no known exploits associated with them, but some likely do or could have them. OpenBSD also has more "high security" features than either FreeBSD or NetBSD. These include a stronger cryptographic password hashing algorythm and integrated IPSEC stuff, etc. There are political reasons why NetBSD and FreeBSD don't have these features, as they are readily available as add ons for both systems, but not technical. OpenBSD is based in Canada, and according to many people's reading of Canadian law, it can export crypto stuff of Canadian origin whereas FreeBSD and NetBSD, being largely based in the US, have to be more careful about what they include due to the US's lovely export policy. OpenBSD has been extremely proactive in fixing bogus code and containing it when they can't fix it. For example, named runs chroot'd by default in OpenBSD, but doesn't in either NetBSD or FreeBSD. I know that many people are working on a source tree audit in FreeBSD similar to the wonderful work that Theo has done in OpenBSD. The project has fallen on hard times, but every so often things are committed from it. The bigs nasty holes have been fixed, but there may still be some smaller ones, or cases that should be cleaned up, even though they might not be exploitable. I know that NetBSD has fixed many problems, but honestly don't know the level of their auditing activity. OpenBSD's ongoing efforts in this area lead the pack. For every day use, I'd say it is about a wash which one has the "best" security for that. If you need the more advanced features, I'd steer towards OpenBSD with NetBSD or FreeBSD being in the running if there are considerations other than security (device driver support, possible performace gains with the others, etc). I'm doing my part to help narrow the gap between FreeBSD and OpenBSD, but my "todo" list is something like 150 commit messages long and growing. Hopefully things will change for me soon such that I'll get more of a chance to fix these things. Anyway, that's my personal perspecitive. Others may disagree with it. The "management" of *BSD may or may not view things the same way that I do.

This last message shows that the kernel has serial support, but it can't find the device. There are a number of possibilities: 1. You may have installed an internal modem "on top of" a port on the motherboard. Modern motherboards have two serial ports, so you would have to disable one of them. Otherwise both the onboard port and your modem won't work. 2. You may have set up the modem/port at the wrong address or IRQ. The GENERIC kernel expects to find the port at address 0x2f8 and in IRQ 3. Check the BIOS for an onboard port or the jumpers for an internal modem to make sure that you have the port set up correctly. 3. You may have put another device on the same IRQ line, or not enabled interrupts. 4. You may have a board such as the IWill series. These boards have a strange UART which doesn't respond to the startup probes correctly. In this case, FreeBSD won't find sio0 either. Check out http://www.lemis.com/serial-port-patch.html for more details. 5. You may have some other problem. Check these through and if you still can't get it to work, let me know which seems most likely.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO THE TECH-GUYS. THANK YOU. I have a 4.1 GB and I have 1.8 GB left. I was planning to split my hard drive into two. C would have 3.3 and the new D drive would have the 800 mb. I was going to use my D drive for the UNix and the WIndows 95 on the C. I tried to use the dos fdisk, but it didn't work. FDISK wouldn't let me split the hard drive. Do you know why? ANother thing is when I try to install Unix, I get stuck at probing, you know when the blue screen comes up and it says that its probing. I read that I can scroll up and down using the Scroll Lock and I did and all I can do is scroll which told me that the computer didn't freeze but it wasn't moving either. I waited 30 minutes but it just stayed there. Do you know why? I have a pent.II 300, 64 mb ram, and 4.1 gb. Oh yea, and there was 21 conflicts and a couple of collapses but the book said that was ok, it just mean that the computer told itself that it was a generic version was used to identify my hardware. Anyways, please reply as soon as possible.

You can't mean from a dial-up isp. All the software for dialing the connection etc. couldn't fit on one little floppy could it? And if it could...you say that you need your IP address, and that of your server (the dial-server?), if my IP address is assigned by my server, then how could i know in advance what it is? (or will all this be taken care of automattically by the software, seems i read something to that effect). If i knew what files to download to my windows HDD (I wish to install FreeBDS on my second HDD) then i would be happy to do that. looking at all the files, directories, and subdirectories is somewhat overwhelming to a novice like me. I read (in a single sentence as a side note) that i should grab the files bin/manpages/compat*/doc/src/ssys*. if i stash that/those on my c drive, will the boot floppy allow me to install them onto the D: drive? (i am pretty sure the answer is yes...i thought i saw that as i made a dry run thru the installation procedure, just making sure). but will that/those be enough to allow me to boot off of the D: drive (FreeBDS) and then dial into my isp and then install the rest of the files from an ftp site? your help would be most appreciated, i am a student (though only learning on my own now) and am trying to get some good hands on experience with using (and in the future, programming) in a unix environment.

The graphics chip part of the SP97-V's chipset, the SiS 5598, which is currently not supported by XFree86 3.3.2. It doesn't seem to be compatible with any other graphics chipset. Not surprising considering the motherboard costs $85, less than many decent video cards. The XFree86 folks should add support for this as this is a _very_ popular motherboard at the small computer store where I work.

I am new to FreeBSD, so my question could be stupid, annoying to some, so I ask to please bear with me. The reason that I would like to install FreeBSD is to learn more about Unix as I do not have a spare Unix box to fiddle on, so FreeBSD will have to do. I do not have the money at the moment to get the FreeBSD 2.2.6 CDROM from Walnut Creek & the Dollar to Rand (South African) ratio is out of my packet. I FTP'ed, from ftp://ftp.saix.net/pub , the 2.2.6-release documents ie bin, dict, des, doc, games, info, manpages, proflibs, src, tools, floppies and all the .TXT files, as this seems to be the initial info needed to install FreeBSD. Let me start 1) The PC that I want to install FreeBSD on is a Compaq Presario 460, 486 processor, 4 Meg Ram, Stiffy Drive 1.44 Meg, ISA Expansion Bus, 270 Meg Hard drive, VGA Monitor, One LPT port and one Com port. It has Dos ver 6.20 and windows 3.1 2) I have read all the documents. In the Installing FreeBSD is say's you need 5 Meg of RAM to install and 4 Meg to run. So I take it that I need more RAM to make 5 Meg. 3) I tried the Installing from Floppy method with no success. All that happened is, the PC boots of the floppy, unloads the kernel them tells me is I want to skip the Kernel config, edit it for a personal one or go to CLI prompt. I used the one for personalise config of the Kernel. I disable all the device drivers that do not correspond to my PC and saved the settings. It the reboots and still goes back to the beginning, where I have to start all over again, I used the one for personalise config of the Kernel. I disable all the device drivers that do not correspond to my PC and saved the settings ect. 4) I gave up on that and preceded to Installing from a DOS partition. I must say that my PC has no partition on my C drive. I lapped-link all the files in BIN to c:\FreeBSD\bin onto my PC. I used a setup program that I got under the tools directory. It gives me an critical error: DOS027 sector not found drive c. Can some one help me out with this problem?

TfH. ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ________________________________ Objet : Still having trouble with KDE......... Auteur : Genius@glasgow.crosswinds.net Date : 26/06/98 00:04 Hey Everyone, I'm back again.......... I finally got the correct files for KDE and unTARred them in the directories, the files that someone suggested I download was the Source so I downloaded the Source and got the stuff unTarballed as I said a minute ago an then I found I need a package called QT so I toddle down to www.troll.no and downloaded the free QT-1.33 package and installed it, sounds good so far doesn't it ?? Wrong........ When I install the QT Package and type make in the directory it's in at chuggs happily along for a few seconds and then gives up with some Errors like it can't find files like qarray.h or somethin, the files are there usually in ./src/widgets or whatever, i've tried putting these into the path variable but that doesn't help, I've tried following the instructions in ftp://ftp.troll.no/qt/source/INSTALL which also gives up on the MAKE thing. I thought I could be intelligent and try instal the KDE with the SOURCE of QT and not the BINARIES, dumb idea, it doesn't work, when I run ./configure from the KDEbase dir if gives up and says that I don't have the QT headers and includes needed, when I try ./configure --with-qt-dir it gets further and tells me to try again with another prefix, can anyone help, all I want is to get the god-damned KDE so I can replace my boring old Window Manager (wm2 BTW). Also, when I try to unTarball the KDESUPPORT file it keep telling me that it can't create files and give wacky errors like 'can't create kdesupport/makefile.am no a directory' and crap like that, when I then try mkdir ./kdesupport or mkdir kdesupport or mkdir /fat16/kde/kdesupport {that's the full path} it gives an error saying can't create, file already exists........ Come on you so-called FreeBSD geniuses, prove yourself....... Get your brains in gear......

I'm guessing that it's a BSD problem since both sendmail and httpd are > having trouble with it. A Canonical name (or CNAME) is a DNS term. In case of Apache, it couldn't look up the value in one of the "ServerName' directives. In case of qpopper, I think it can't reverse-lookup an IP (i'm not sure about this).

I have only done it twice, but dialup installation over a regular modem is supported by FreeBSD. The tricky part may be that you may need to type some ppp settings depending on your ISP. I use IBM.net and in order to install FreeBSD over a modem I need to do a series of settings manually. >if my IP address is >assigned by my server, then how could i know in advance what it is? You don't. How about if you mention your ISP perhaps we could help if we have more specifics. >If i knew what files to download to my windows HDD (I wish to install >FreeBDS on my second HDD) then i would be happy to do that. You can do that too. I think if you look into the handbook that it may tell you what files you need. Which filesystem are you using with windows? I think FreebSD can not read the latest Fat-32(?). You can also copy the files to floppies. Have you considered getting the FreeBSD CDroms. By far this is the easiest. If the budget is tight get a few friends and share the cost of the CDroms. >my c drive, will the boot floppy allow me to install them onto the D: drive? If D is FAT I think it should be ok, although I think you are better off leaving the space unformatted and prepare it with FreeBSD. DO BACKUP all your C data before you work with this.

(At least, Quantum don't list ATAPI tape drives on their website....) In which case the tape drive will be supported as long as your SCSI controller card is supported. (Most Adaptec/Buslogic/NCR controllers come into this category, but take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook9.html to be sure.) > and FreeBSD backup and restore software? FreeBSD contains two commands 'dump' and 'restore' as part of its distribution. (Type 'man dump' and 'man restore' for details, if you have access to any flavour of UNIX box.) The command format isn't pretty, but it would be very easy to set up a couple of scripts to do full and incremental dumps of your disk(s) so you wouldn't have to worry about it much :) I'm not aware of any packages that provide a nice front-end to the backup/restore process, though perhaps someone else might know......?

If you're installing on a second hard disk, it's a good idea to download the files you need (bin.* and whatever else you want) to the first HD (assuming it's got a DOS filesystem on it). I've had installs where the power's gone out, or media errors have occured, or other events have transpired, and I've had to stop the "download as it installs" half way through. Of course, the files that you've already downloaded are either not saved anywhere, or if they are available (assuming you've got that far) you need to be pretty confident with your repair skills to make them usable. This can be quite disheartening when you realise you've got to redownload most of 30MB or however much it was. Having the installation files locally, even if only for a short time, guards against this and allows you (if you want) to rerun the install several times, learning more as you go, until you get an install you're happy with.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have to concur. The prospect of trying to install FreeBSD over anything less than a T1/E1 line - especially considering the number of installation attempts I had the first time I installed FreeBSD before getting it right! - is NOT one I'd like to contemplate. Not least because your installation is likely be messed up if you lose your link, the power goes down, or everything else Nik said.... If you're on a slow link, I really suggest you either: 1. download the distribution onto a DOS partition and install from that 2. download the distribution at work and burn a CD ;) 3. buy the Walnut Creek CDROM (okay, it's forty dollars, but what about your phone bill - and the time lost - if something goes wrong and you have to start over?)

It depends on how your partitions are set up. /home is usually, but not always, a symlink to /usr/home. If this is so, use chmod 511 /usr/home If this is not so - for instance, if the /home tree is on its own partition - then you need to chmod 511 /home N.B. Some shells may complain about this. tcsh, for instance, will generate the following error on invocation: tcsh: Permission denied tcsh: Trying to start from "/home/" [tcsh will still work, but the error is a bit annoying.] Keith -- v Keith Jones Systems Manager, Blueberry New Media Ltd. v | Postal Mail: 2/10 Harbour Yard, Chelsea Harbour, LONDON, UK.

After installation, I tried accessing the /cdrom directory and got an error message saying permission denied, I was logged in as root at the time so I saw this is a problem. I then tried editing /etc/fstab to see if changing the device worked. But I've tried all the devices that I thought might work. During bootup, I get a line that says wcd0 - 4168km/s etc. etc. I assume this is the cd drive, so I tried editing fstab to use both wcd0a and wcd0c, neither of which work. Any help please, Kevin On a small side note, where does the file .xinitrc go?

I had a strange idea the other day: There are, that I know of, no (free) decent Network Filesystems for Unix that work as a Unix filesystem. NFS looks like a Unix filesystem, but has problems too innumerable to mention. SMB is (despite the microsoft connections) is a reasonable network filesystem, but doesn't appear to support the unix aspects all that well, so no permissions, or owners. However, UMSDOS (sorry Terry Lambert, who always seems to be the one to reply to UMSDOS questions) copes with putting a Unix filesystem on top of a DOS filesystem (which SMB supports just fine). So, would it be possible to combine SMB and some SMB transparent extension such that permissions and ownership could be added? I don't think that long filenames would _need_ to be coped with explicitely, although if any incarnation prior to win95 had SMB it might be worthwhile... maybe. Am I missing something and this is a bad idea? Because it seems to have a lot of merit. You lose, in terms of speed, I suppose, but you gain in terms of being able to use a network filesystem that is well supported, but keeping the things that are needed by Unix. As an aside/addendum, does anyone know of a decent network filesystem that FreeBSD can support? This would be helpful specifically to me, since we run an almost exclusively freeBSD network here, although my idea might be nice if ever we get a nice fileserver like a Network Appliance box.

I know that I will be pounding on it a little bit in the future. I don't know much about NFS, but Coda is sure to be (at this point) far worse than any other file system.

This would be helpful specifically to I don't know about "decent" yet, but I know that Coda has a really big "COOL!" factor to it, and if you can afford the servers, mirroring the fs is supposed to be a snap. Not really a recommendation, but definitely a "you should give it a look". ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Short Colossians 3:23 ashort@concentric.net http://www.concentric.net/~ashort/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jun 26 10:09:52 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA12453 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 10:09:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cygnus.rush.net (root@cygnus.rush.net [209.45.245.133]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA12374 for ; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 10:09:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from lynch@rush.net) Received: from localhost (lynch@localhost) by cygnus.rush.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id NAA26567; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 13:42:40 -0500 (EST) Date: Fri, 26 Jun 1998 13:42:38 -0500 (EST) From: P Lynch To: Wayne Van Der Merwe cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help needed in installing Version 2.2.6 (First Timer) In-Reply-To: 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 very simple, you need more RAM, 4 megs isn;t enough to install ___________________________________________________________________________ Pat Lynch lynch@rush.net Systems Administrator Rush Networking ___________________________________________________________________________ On Fri, 26 Jun 1998, Wayne Van Der Merwe wrote: > Hi there all.

Okay, in that case you need to find what message type redirects are, then block them from ipfw, specifying the ICMP message type to block. This should be on the ipfw man page.

Wrong........ Well, as was mentioned by Mike Smith (?) at USENIX, KDE doesn't know what a build environment is. It's not engineered well and so there lots of tweaky dependencies. Again, I recomend using the ports. Install the x11/qt133 port first, then make install the x11/kde metaport. This is how I did it and it worked fine, esp. with Beta4.

Do programs crash randomly with sig10 or sig11 (Bus error or Segmentation Fault) errors?

They probably installed TCP wrappers, so there will be a /etc/hosts.allow and or /etc/hosts.deny. You might check if ssh is installed, it's a much more secure form of telnet.

Yes - kde files are bzip'ed. If you just use the port (the "directories only thing you downloaded before), it will check your system and install any dependencies, like bzip, for you. It will then patch the files for FreeBSD, build and install them. You can then uninstall the packages if you decide you don't want it by doing a make deinstall in that directory or pkg_delete'ing the packages you are no longer interested in. My guess is that there may be a fairly significant amount of patching you'll have to do by hand to the sources if you don't use the ports.

Sorry if my description of the error was incomplete; there may have been a "(2)" at the end... it definitely started with "error 6" though. If this new installation attempt I'm in the midst of reproduces that, I'll look at the disklabel. This is not an over-install but a full scratch installation with the disk "dangerously dedicated" (yea, I like living "dangerously" sheesh! ;) If the disklabel comes up saying ESDI, then I guess the culprit is 's boot disk (?); I'm just doing my usual sysinstall thing with no boot manager or cooperation with other OS', just full-on type-165-disk-dedication. I need to get a recipe together for building servers with multi-channel controllers; the content I'm supporting doesn't stop growing thus the appetite for disks has no limit. (walked away from my console to do the aforementioned install) 30 minutes later, I've completed the install. The problem was the friggen disklabel. Just to humor y'all then I've rewritten 's instructions:
Boot floppies with new CAM SCSI code (support for the new AIC7895).

Archive contents
----------------
README          this file
boot.flp        sysinstall floppy
kernel.flp      special floppy, containing the right kernel and some utils

Install procedure
-----------------

The boot.flp contains usual stuff with built-in CAM code.

You do the usual thing with it, i.e. write it onto a 1.44 diskette and
boot it. The first SCSI disk will be called "da0".

Then you install the whole system. Unfortunately, at this moment what gets
installed is GENERIC kernel, with old SCSI code, which doesn't support
AIC7895. The second floppy image (kernel.flp) contains the same version of
GENERIC kernel which was used to do the installation (minus MFS/sysinstall
thing).

Here's how I used it: after installation completed, just before rebooting
I chose the "Fixit" option, then "Fixit floppy". Sysinstall mounts the
kernel.flp.  Below is a procedure explicitly laid out that assumes your
first hard drive has /var on /dev/da0s1e and /usr on /dev/da0s1f.  Using
cp, chflags, chown etc. (included) I copy the kernel from it onto the root
partition overwriting freshly installed GENERIC kernel.  Then reboot and
it should come up. If not, ask yourself why, and then, if nothing comes to
your mind, ask <abial@nask.pl> :-) Good luck!

Hit alt-f4 to go to the Fixit shell and do this:
PATH=/mnt2:/stand:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin ; export PATH
mount /dev/da0a /mnt
mount /dev/da0e /mnt/var
mount /dev/da0f /usr
EDITOR=/usr/bin/vi ; export EDITOR
/mnt/sbin/disklabel -e -r da0
(change ESDI to SCSI!)
gunzip < kernel.CAM.gz > /mnt/kernel
chflags schg /mnt/kernel
gunzip < kvm_kernel.CAM.db.gz > /mnt/var/db/kvm_kernel.db
umount /usr
umount /mnt/var
umount /mnt
exit

Back your way out of sysinstall and reboot; do a "-c" at the boot prompt
to turn off probing of the stupid ISA devices you're not using anyway.
Rejoice.

(I know, I'm a wimp. :) Question one: I've compiled my kernel with MAXMEM=130048 to account for the fact that when I put the new server online, it'll have 128MB of physical RAM. However, the machine is a replacement for an older one, and the RAM is in the old one (I'm borrowing 64MB at the moment to set it up.) Will the kernel-configged ~128MB RAM limit cause a problem if I boot it on a machine with only 64MB? The server is actually doing stuff right now, so I'm not willing to reboot and just find out, unless I really need to. Question two: The new machine is 2.2.6, and I'm used to 2.2.2. When I first booted 2.2.6, I was surprised to be given a "Boot: BSD (F1)" prompt (or something similar). I hit F1 and it booted, somewhat differently-looking from how I expected, but without trouble. My old machine would give a "boot:" prompt and then boot the default kernel (with the spinning hyphen-bar) in just a few seconds. I guess this might be a result of my having installed the bootloader differently, or something, but whatever. So my question is this: Will the default kernel boot on its own if I don't hit F-anything? I didn't wait long enough last time to find out, and the server won't have a console connected when it's live, so it's important to me to know if rebooting requires console interaction. :) Thanks!

No they don't. The only thing that goes wrong with the computer is that it crashes periodically as described. I could try dismounting the swap partition and/or switching the SIMMs -- what do you think? Also I did change the CPU, to no avail.

I use Win95 for 50% of stuff, FreeBSD for about 20% and the rest is between the other Os's. This FreeBSD box has two major diabilites, firstly It refuses point-blank to recognise my ATAPI CD (24x) and it also has a PCTel chipset modem which refuses to work on FreeBSD (Or anything apart from Win95 actually), So I have to manually copy files onto my DOS partition which is then mounted under FreeBSD. Due to this all the help given like 'type MAKE and it will solve all your problems' won't work as it can't find my CD-ROM or can't FTP because of my modem's Chipset....... My second FreeBSD box has a MAJOR disability, it won't run the X-Windows System due to a dodgy Graphics Card (Cyrix MediaGX, there crap) so It is pointless putting KDE on that, I can't even network them as the Cyrixx Machine only comes with ONE ISA slot which is used by a non-replaceable 28.8k Modem..... Ain't that annoying....... So I need EXACT instructions of what files I need, where to put them, what to do with them, how to get the god-damn thing to work.........

Although I don't know a great deal about it, I know that it's been working without problems with our TC's. We have it configured (like you do) to change the number of allowed simultaneous logins. We can also limit users to specific hunt-groups (So ISDN users can only log in on the NetServers and not the TC's, etc.) The only issue we have ever had with it was our NetServer not properly communicating with radius when people disconnected. Result was that "radlast" did not match up with a "sho ses" on the NetServer. An upgrade to the NetServer took care of that though.

I know this problem was discussed here many times, but I cannot install StarOffice on my 2.2.6 corretly. I installed the linux-binaries and enabled the compatiblity in rc.conf. Other linux-binaries like doom do work, so this is not the problem. When I start "setup" there is only a message "abord, core dumped". I even tried to start the "setup.bin" without the setup-script - same effect. In the mailinglist-archive someone wrote that the sp3 will not work with freebsd and you should download the orig. SO4 .... but there is only sp3 at the StarDivision-Site. Where can I get the "older" Version? Or what do I have to do to make it work?

First of all, my current setup is: Pentium 200MMX, 32mb RAM, PCI video card 8X CD-ROM, 16-bit sound card, and an available 540mb hard drive to dedicate to FreeBSD in addition to a 3gig. Running Win95 (soon to be Win98). I have no previous experience with any type of UNIX OS. I have only one PC so I will need to duel-boot. I hope that you don't mind answering the following questions: Do you believe that installing this on my only PC is risky or wise? Do you believe that duel-booting between Win95/98 and FreeBSD will cause a problem with either? (IE, file format compatibility) If I install Win98 after FreeBSD, will that be a problem? Because the download is time-consuming and leaves no backup other than re-downloading, I will be purchasing FreeBSD from a local store. Does it come with free updates? If so, are the updates full or do they patch the existing copy? I will inevitably need reference material because all of this will be new to me. Does the OS itself come with a manual? If not, do you have recommendations as to what I should look for? Is there anything else I should know before purchasing FreeBSD? I appreciate your time and apologize for the length of this inquiry, but I need to be sure before going any further.

I appreciate the helping had. I guess I didn't phrase the second question that well. What my problem is it appears that the DNS server in my environment appends the domain to the end of the machine name in the response to the request for the IP Address. The FreeBSD machine thinks that this is not a match and gives an error and won't use the returned information. This means that I ether have to call a machine by it's machinename.domainname or maintain it in my local host file. Since there is a large number of machines and some of them change often I wouldn't want to maintain the hosts file. And I would prefer to not be required to type in the domainname, it's kind of long. And, none of the other UNIX machines in my environment exhibit this behavior. They just accept the response and use it. No warnings or errors anywhere. I thought there might be something wrong in my setup. If anyone knows what settings might be wrong or where I should put a list of friendly domains I'ld appreciate it.

After installation, I tried accessing the /cdrom directory and got an error message saying permission denied, I was logged in as root at the time so I saw this is a problem. I then tried editing /etc/fstab to see if changing the device worked. But I've tried all the devices that I thought might work. During bootup, I get a line that says wcd0 - 4168km/s etc. etc. I assume this is the cd drive, so I tried editing fstab to use both wcd0a and wcd0c, neither of which work. > > Any help please, > Kevin > > On a small side note, where does the file .xinitrc go? > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > ===================================================================== Todd Backman (tbackman@corp.gulf.net) Network Engineering Team Leader Systems/POP Administration Gulf Coast Internet Company 1-800-444-INET To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jun 26 14:24:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA06113 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 14:24:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mercury.jorsm.com (mercury.jorsm.com [207.112.128.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA05930 for ; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 14:24:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jer@jorsm.com) Received: from localhost (jer@localhost) by mercury.jorsm.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id QAA15461; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 16:23:56 -0500 (CDT) Date: Fri, 26 Jun 1998 16:23:56 -0500 (CDT) From: Jeremy Shaffner To: Giannis Vlachos cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: dialup authentication In-Reply-To: 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 The most common form of dial up authentication is performed by RADIUS.

(stupid Winmodems...) If you have the DOS partition mounted w/ the source files there then do the following: - move all the source files (kde stuff, bzip, qt etc) to the /usr/ports/distfiles (make it if you don't have it) - do NOT untar/zip the source files - the ports mechanism will take care of it - I assume you still have the ports directories you downloaded before somewhere. If you do, untar/zip them into /usr/ports (these can basically go anywhere if you don't have the ports tree installed, but you may as well have them here) - su root - cd to the kde port directory (there should be one labelled just kde) and type "make install clean" - it should then find all the source files it needs in the /usr/ports/distfiles directory and proceed to make kde along with all of its dependencies > So I need EXACT instructions of what files I need, where to put them, > what to do with them, how to get the god-damn thing to work......... Having followed this thread, if you'd been more specific about where you had the source files and what you wanted to do we could have probably solved this earlier.

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

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

The result is that most leading edge com- puter books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The sec- ond edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this docu- ment: 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 under- lining. 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 bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller-fea- tured 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 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documenta- tion 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 char- acter-mode terminal. 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 bet- ter choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For exam- ple, 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 print- er 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 dis- tribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Con- figuration 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 In- dex, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ After the example at the top of the page, add: If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cdrom/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s $i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my atten- tion. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for exam- ple 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 simultaneously with- in Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initializa- tion files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding indi- vidual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environ- ment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The lat- est version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very 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 sys- tem. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ 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 as- sumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite un- happy 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 de- vice name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your di- rectory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my atten- tion. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (In- stallation CD-ROM) in the directory . Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The indi- vidual scripts are in the directory /scripts, but you'll probably find it easi- er to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel and Suttipan Limanond for finding this one. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DE- FLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the cor- responding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address in- stead 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 ad- dress 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 informa- tion 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 connec- tion. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possi- ble 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 acknowl- edging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd.

I think this is done through IPFW (firewall). Type ipfw. You will get a list of firewall rules. If something there mentions the linux box, and port 23, that's the problem.

As Doug said, try rebuilding your kernel with the pnp controller. This will work if your modem if a Plug'n'Play one. This may (will) be not enough: 2.2.5 PnP code probably does not know about your modem, so maybe you'll have to modify /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sio.c to add support for your PnP ID (look for "siopnp_ids" near the end of the file). To avoid this, I wrote a little patch (that is going to be committed RSN), but I need some help from your side: please send me the output of the "pnpinfo" command (run it as root). Many thanks!

You don't need to get any files except the boot floppy. The installation diskette _will_ fetch all the files that you need. In case you are skeptical, I still have no idea what all of the files are theat are needed for an installation. I always let the installation program worry about that stuff. Good luck.

Typically this would be at your ISP, or the ISP's mail hub. Ask them if there is a limit on the size of single email. Also ask if there is a limit on total number of emails per day. Either way freebsd-questions is going to be fairly large. I don't know how often the digest comes out, (daily?), but it might be helpful to many in this position if it came out whenever the size of the digest exceeds some limit, instead.

Is it possible to get Majordomo to send this message every time someone subscribes, rather than posting it on the mailing list on a regular basis. I'm not complaining or anything. Procmail works fine for me.

What precise model of video, cdrom and sound card? Can make a big difference. You can tell a lot about compatibility just by booting the install disk according to instructions -- but backing out of the installation.

It's risky -- ANY OS installation is, including just updating W95 or MS-DOS. If you can't backup the Windoze material, and you want to keep it, you run the risk of losing everything. If you do the installation to the entire 528MB disk, risk to the "newbie" will be reduced, I think. Many new users successfully install FreeBSD on a disk with an existing W95 installation without problem. Study the documentation thoroughly before proceding. /Make backups/. > Do you believe that duel-booting between Win95/98 and FreeBSD will cause a > problem with either? (IE, file format compatibility) The two OS's (in the 'sane' installation :) are in separate disk partitions. (Called slices in BSD-speak). Their file systems are radically different, and W9x cannot access files on a Unix file system. FreeBSDS, OTOH, /can/ read and write to (most) M$ paritions. You should be aware that executables from each operating system will /not/ run on the other system. I.e. FreeBSD is not a W95 application, nor vice-versa. The answer, I guess, is a flat "YES", file formats are, in general, incompatible. > If I install Win98 > after FreeBSD, will that be a problem? Probably. M$ Os's are very intolerant of other OS's partitions, claim that they are invalid, that the disk is damaged, that a virus exists, etc etc, then proceed to "fix" the partition according to the M$ view of the world. The behavior of all unixes, when confronted with a disk partition that is not their own, is to leave it alone. Usually it is possible to fix the damage M$ does, but Win 98 may have "new features" :(. Typically W9x "fixes" the partition table, changing the partition identifier byte. You then have to "fix" it back to the right thing. The hope is that once you install F'BSD, you will change your mind about getting W98 and spend the money on something else, like some thick books about Unix. :) In a couple of weeks, I hope to see a post from you titled "How can I convert my other disk for FreeBSD use?" > Because the download is time-consuming and leaves no backup other than > re-downloading, I will be purchasing FreeBSD from a local store. Does it This will eliminate a /lot/ of headaches. > come with free updates? If so, are the updates full or do they patch the > existing copy? Updates are usually gotten over the net (for free). New releases (i.e. any change in the numbers in 2.6.6) come out complete-in-themselves, i.e. another CD-ROM set. Except for security patches, there is not a general requirement to update between major releases. Patches are distributed as source code, BTW, not binary patches like M$ "service paks". (Packages and ports -- two flavors of optional software -- show more change between OS releases, since many of them are authored by people not on the same schedule as FreeBSD. These can be reloaded or rebuilt over the net /very/ easily.) > I will inevitably need reference material because all of this will be new to > me. > Does the OS itself come with a manual?

Unlike the 8019/8029 (which are NE2000 clones), the 8129/8139 appear to be their own design and not compatible with anything else. However, datasheets that look complete enough to write a driver are available on their website (www.realtek.com.tw), and there also exists a Linux driver to crib from (see http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/100mbs.html ) [Sorry if you see two copies of this - I think I killed the one with an incorrect URL, but it may have escaped] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message 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 Fri Jun 26 23:47:12 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA23715 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 23:47:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from implode.root.com (implode.root.com [198.145.90.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA23692 for ; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 23:47:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from root@implode.root.com) Received: from implode.root.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by implode.root.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id XAA29037; Fri, 26 Jun 1998 23:47:17 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199806270647.XAA29037@implode.root.com> To: Dan Mahoney cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Question re. apps and memory usage In-reply-to: Your message of "Fri, 26 Jun 1998 23:08:29 PDT." <19980626230829.29713@ns1.wolf.com> From: David Greenman Reply-To: dg@root.com Date: Fri, 26 Jun 1998 23:47:17 -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >I've just recently moved to FreeBSD from Linux, and I'm >encountering a problem I've never seen before.

Take a look at /etc/login.conf - this is where the resource limits are defined. You'll likely need to mess with the 'default' settings.

You should not run Netscape or Xwindows has root because you put a lot of garbage in /root who is limited in space.

As you all know, I am pretty deep into diskless machines right now, and I have noticed some really *strange* things: (these things ONLY happen on diskless stations or their hosts)... (1) I have a host, "A". "A" is supporting a single diskless, "B". The diskless boots, and then mounts /usr, /bin, /sbin and /usr/local from "A". Prior to supporting a diskless, "A" was running _flawlessly_. Now the client, "B", runs flawlessly, and "A" refuses to run rwhod. Not that it complains, it just won't do it. If you enter the cammand manually, it says nothing, and *logs* nothing, but it also doesnt run rwhod! (2) I have another host, "C", it is supporting clients "E" through "V". "C" runs flawlessly, as it always has. But clients E-V won't run inetd. Do we see a pattern here? At first you might think so, but then remember that "A" is a _host_, and E-V are _clients_... All these guys are on the same wire... Anyone have any thoughts? TIA J.A.

Personally, I feel that (a) the FreeBSD site isn't really designed for children anyway, (b) the guy is just an overzealous moralizer out to gripe, (c) they are FreeBSD-powered sites, and it's not the job of freebsd.org to make judgments. Perhaps a disclaimer at the top of the page that says Some of these sites contain material not suitable for children. Please consider yourself forewarned. and not removing the links would be enough.

In case you don't know, a German court recently came to a verdict which I consider completely ridiculous: ISPs are responsible for *all* data passing through their network. Interestingly, the phone company isn't: another judgement has loosened the requirements for phone monitoring. I consider this the latest in a line of stupid, short-sighted and ill-informed judgements by German courts. I don't condone that kind of site, but the expectation that ISPs should monitor all traffic is not just ridiculous, it infringes on other basic rights of privacy, which until recently was regarded very highly in German society. I would guess that: 1. Arne is complaining more out of a sense of obligation than any real interest in the matter. Most Germans I know aren't too worried about pornography on the net. Many German "family" magazines frequently have photos of half-naked women. 2. He seems to be relating to www.de.FreeBSD.org, not www.FreeBSD.org; at least he has now complained to the people who run www.de.FreeBSD.org. I suppose they'll be forced to take it seriously, given the current legal situation. 3. He's complaining about links, not content. Not even the German courts can expect people to follow all links through to the bitter end to ensure they don't have any multiple indirect pointers to subject material which may at some time be indecent. > Perhaps a disclaimer at the top of the page that says > > Some of these sites contain material not suitable for children.

I see no reason to change things unless somebody decides to remove the links altogether.

Several days ago I visited their site and founded that that new (8.0) version is available in sources. So, I downloaded it and tryed to compile (I see, that there is no direct FreeBSD support in their src tree, but there is NetBSD one). But unfor- tunately I've figured out the number of C++ related bugs (among them the impossibility to link the shared libraries in ATK because of duplicate entries...). The question is: could someonr tell me if it is possible at all to compile this version on FreeBSD and if it is possible, then how ? With best regards, Max.

For pvm you have to rewrite your application and link it against the pvm-lib. The pvm-server then distributes the tasks to the machines that have registered with the server over some network. => no implicit memory-sharing.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ever since I started off with FreeBSD, I've had trouble with termcap. It started with NCFTP v2.4.2 (giving funny characters like $<$<2>2>> on the screen with vt100 emulation). I was adviced to use vt220 emulation instead, and so I did (not fixing anything). Later on I found problems with 'screen' (the screen manager), giving me a jumpy display (when text scrolls up one line, it is diaplayed one line above that for a short flash -- thus giving a jumpy effect) with certain applications. I tried screen with vt100 and vt102 in addition to the original screen one, not making a difference. Would I be on the wrong track blaming the FreeBSD termcap? It does seem quite old and unupdated. Is there any way to change or update it, or is there something else I can do? Termlib? I tried installing a newer BSD'ish termcap, unsuccessfully (it didn't work at all). PS: I'm using CRT (which is considered to be the best (?) terminal emulator for Windows) to log in. I've also tried several others, experiencing the same problems.

Ok, I know that I'm not intended to run make release as I'm ordinary user... as Jkh says. BTW, I fetched CVS repository using cvsup ( src-all, ports-all, doc-all, www, src-secure, src-eBones, src-crypto collections respectively) and I'm surely removed all tag= and date= fields so cvsup worked in cvs mode. Good... all that takes about 700MB of disk space. Now I'm running make release CHROOTDIR=/opt2 BUILDNAME=3.0-SNAP and an error appears: install -c -o bin -g bin -m 644 sup/Attic/README,v /opt2/usr/share/examples/sup/Attic/README,v install: /opt2/usr/share/examples/sup/Attic/README,v: No such file or directory *** Error code 71 Stop. *** Error code 1 So, I have commented out lines in the /usr/src/release/Makefile which does some chflags stuff and removes entire CHROOTDIR before each make release. I added manually missing sup and Attic directories but...exactly same error appears under different directories. As for comment all this happens only under the usr/share/examples... directory structure. What's wrong here ? Why these directories are missing ? As I understand mtree creates the whole CHROOTDIR directory structure but I don't know much about that. Ok, thats my problem and I hope somebody can help me despite of Jkh's words all about that :) Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 27 07:46:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA18631 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 07:46:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (www.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id HAA18570 for ; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 07:45:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte@webmore.com) Received: from neuron.webmore.com (unverified [194.95.214.171]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 16:47:56 +0200 Received: (from malte@webmore.com) by neuron.webmore.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA04572; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 16:43:58 +0200 (CEST) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.2 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <01BDA13C.75C004B0.berend@pobox.com> Date: Sat, 27 Jun 1998 16:43:58 +0200 (CEST) Reply-To: malte@webmore.com From: Malte Lance To: Berend de Boer Subject: RE: Parental control software/lists for FreeBSD Cc: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 26-Jun-98 Berend de Boer wrote: > Hai All, > > For a school in my area I want to setup a FreeBSD server as a gateway to > the internet.

Once there was a time in germany where you could not be condemned for action there was no law for. Now there seems to come the time, where you could be sued for everything except what is explicit allowed by law. Instead of catching the real bad guy's on the internet, the german politicians and executives stick with "catch and sue what can be catched and sued for now", means get all the provider that make the exchange of any data (also offending data) possible. The effect is, that a subculture of denouncers is growing, now building a base for a neo-Stasi institution. Mr Woerner seems to be one of them. A few days ago i read an article in a newspaper or magazine about a german guy, that found a german server with forbidden porn-material. This guy called the police and told them about it. The police-men told him to save the stuff and bring it to the police-station. He did and was sued for having forbidden porn-material. Mr Woerner, if you want to protect your children from accessing the offending sites, just install a firewall and block all traffic from/to that sites. Greg, seems you did the right thing when moving to australia. I don't think the australian people are in an regulation-amok as the german politicians are. Malte.

Not being overly fond of the System V semaphore routines, I looked for alternatives. Particularly intriguing was the reference to a MAP_HASSEMAPHORE flag in the mmap(2) man page. The 'newvm' paper (in /usr/share/doc/papers) was informative, so I eagerly went looking for the mset()/mclear() code to see how it was implemented. Sadly they're not implemented in 2.2.6-STABLE. This is too bad since mset()/mclear() look far faster in concept than the System V alternative. Is there any plan to implement mset(), mclear(), msleep() and mwakeup()? It doesn't seem they would be overly difficult to implement correctly (but I've never done any kernel-level work, either). This leads me to my second question: Foregoing the availability of mset() and company, what is considered the "canonical' method of process synchronization when using mmap()? System V semaphores? flock(2)? (Neither of those approaches are particularly appealing). -- Dave -- David E.

We have a busy LAN and to protect some (primitive) mainframe ethernet interfaces (these interfaces are giving problems due to excessive traffic flowing to them) it's planned to have a router (bridge/filter OR whatever) which can route only IP traffic destined to and from mainframes. But we do not have network subnetted and have all our servers/mainframe and workstations on the same IP network. Is it possible to have a FreeBSD system with two network interfaces bridging mainframe and the rest of the network statically routing IP packets from on side to another. one side is the whole network and other side are couple of mainframe ethernet interfaces (not more than 4). Thanks in advance... Prashant.

My plan is to get both running as Primary before changing DNS1 into a secondary. When I run make-localhost script on DNS2 it uses the IP address for DNS1. If I put the right ip in localhost.rev then named says "unable to locate hostname for XXX.XXX.XXX.2" the hostname command returns the correct name, the ip address is correct (I can telnet remotly) I have the grasshopper book, and have checked /etc/hosts file. I have it wrong somwhere but cant seem to find it. DNS1 is running 2.1.5 DNS2 is running 2.2.6 installed last week. Please bear with me if this is an easy one, I have been running Freebsd for about 9 months but DNS2 is my first configuration from the ground up, (someone else setup DNS1) Thanks in advance Gary Landers To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 27 13:31:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA24595 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 13:31:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peanut.readington.com ([207.207.198.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA24589; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 13:31:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from chrismar@peanut.readington.com) Received: from localhost (chrismar@localhost) by peanut.readington.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id PAA27995; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 15:35:26 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from chrismar@peanut.readington.com) Date: Sat, 27 Jun 1998 15:35:26 -0400 (EDT) From: Chris Martino To: Arne Woerner cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG, postmaster@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: your mail In-Reply-To: <199806271150.NAA14293@azurix.rz.tu-clausthal.de> 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 Here's a thought...

I dont know anything about Linux or Unix. I just want another operating system for me to use on the internet, for my own pleasure, and leave win95 for my wife and kids. Is it possible for me to use it and get a internet browser like netscape or internet explorer and also get a copy that has 128 encryption capabilities so that I may do my banking thru Free BSD? I am taking all this in consideration. I await your answer before actually installing it.

Yes you can get Netscape, and I think there is 128bit encryption software.

Well, if it counts, I use FreeBSD exclusively. Of course I don't have a wife and kids either! :-) It's certainly possible to dual boot win95 and FreeBSD. > Is it possible for me to use it and get a internet browser like > netscape or internet explorer and also get a copy that has 128 > encryption capabilities so that I may do my banking thru Free BSD? There is no Internet Explorer available for FreeBSD (I think the ONLY non-Windows version is Solaris maybe - can't recall). There are native versions of Netscape-4.05 available, and I assume 4.5 when it comes out fairly soon. It is possible to compile Netscape w/ 128 bit encryption from Fortify. > I am taking all this in consideration. > I await your answer before actually installing it. Well, before you install it, read through as much of the information as you can at www.freebsd.org to get a handle of what you're jumping into. It IS a little bit harder to run FreeBSD (at least to get started) than Windows, but it is also far faster, stable, and rewarding. You should also note that although there are Windows emulators available for FreeBSD, they are in serious beta testing. However since you're going to be keeping your Windows stuff, that won't be a problem for you. Again, read up a little and be sure to write back if you have more questions.

It's really outstanding. There's a huge chance that you already know about what I want to tell you, but there's a site called www.rootshell.com that contains hacking software that exploits bugs in operating systems and applications. And it mentioned exploiting a couple of bugs in FreeBsd and other BSD's. Please take a look at that site, because sites of that kind are the most useful bug report in my opinion.

I am checking with the manufacturers > about hardware compatibility. I do have a couple more questions, though. The manufacturers often are clueless or hostile. The answer you will get from some is 'We don't support Unix'. Some have told me (Toshiba, Inc) that running Unix voids their warranty. Not so. We cleared that up... it voids their warranty for NT, which was what was installed by the Mfg. No problem with that. The authoritative answer to "Does XXX work with FreeBSD?" is found from FreeBSD, not the mfg. If you post the mfg's name and model number, the list will have the info. you need. The answers on the list come from volunteers, some officially associated with FreeBSD Inc, others, like me, just random bums who like to type, and who think they know something. Critical hardware: Motherboard, *Disk Controller, Disk Drive(s), *Network (ethernet card), Monitor, *Video Card, CDROM drive, Sound Card, *Modem. The *starred ones are where problems arise, IMHO. Most /common/ hardware will work fine, particularly SCSI drives, IDE drives. Some graphics cards are not supported well (if at all) under X, the (optional) windowing system (not part of FreeBSD, but shipped with it). /* WINMODEMS, a kind of cheap modem that requires a special software driver under W95, DO NOT WORK WITH ANY UNIX SYSTEM, to my knowledge */ /* Even if a driver were written, you wouldn't want it. Winmodems use the CPU too much, in short. Sell it to a W95 user, and get a "real" modem. */ If it is "common", and not a new model introduced in the last 6 months, it is /probably/ supported. ** Your first resource for support information, hardware compatibility, ** software availability is the web page, www.freebsd.org. There's ** a lot of info available there. The degree of support available is, essentially, unlimited, reliable in most cases, and puts many commercial support activities to shame, particularly Microsoft's "a) Tell him it's a feature b) put him on hold c) tell him to buy an upgrade" model. subject to the limitations of e-mail, you will get answers. Using the list means that the answer you get will be posted to the list, and if the answerer makes an error, somebody will pounce on it. Some "Big Guns" read the list regularly, and are quick to point out mistakes. Often you will get answers straight from the person who wrote the software in question. This is unheard of in the M$ world. > Do the makers of FreeBSD offer support in case I have trouble installing > FreeBSD or it somehow manages to wipe-out or damage my system? You're lookin' at it. (The freebsd-questions mailing list, I mean). Your main danger is in wiping out a previous Windoze installation, which can happen through a mistake on your part, during the partitioning of the harddisk. Backup allows you to recover from this by re-installing Windoze, and your site-specific files. Hardware damage is not going to happen due to FreeBSD. [Well, you can damage a monitor by really abusing X Window System installation. You kinda have to /try/ to screw it up, though]. I'm not trying to scare you off, but to give you the "straight dope" rather than some sales pitch. My personal opinion is that FreeBSD installation is as smooth as a baby's butt, and almost impossible to screw up -- but it can be screwed up. I do installations without backing up, but I'm an "old hand", having diddled around with this and similar systems since punched cards, and if I shoot myself in the foot, I don't blame the gun. I've found that pain is a great teacher, and fear, a powerful aid to concentration. But I can't recommend that approach to others. > I see several UNIX versions of various software titles with subclasses like > Linux, AIX, Irix, Solaris, etc. There is never a listing for FreeBSD. If I > needed a FreeBSD version of the software, which do I choose? For "binaries", i.e. pre-compiled software, there may be an explicit freebsd version. If not, the linux version may execute, using the linux-emulation capabilities of FreeBSD. NetBSD and OpenBSD binaries can, I believe, also, /in general/ be run, but I don't know about this. Most of the software that people run is "free software", which is distributed in source code. These distributions can need some tweaking before it will compile correctly (regardless of OS). For Free- (and Open- and Net- )BSD these tweaks have been done by others, and are available as part of the OS-distribution. THese are called "ports", and about 900-1000 of them are currently available. Precompiled versions of these ports, called "packages", are also available. (on the FTP site, or on the CDROMs). Again, the questions list is a prime resource. "I need a program for XYZ". > Thank you again for your help. > Sure. Some remarks re W98: it's only been out on the street for three days, and I don't use any M$ operating system. I'd watch the list for reports of problems upgrading W95->W98 on top of a dual-boot W95/FreeBSD system. These, if any, should begin surfacing this week. Watch for posts like 'W98 HOSED MY BSD!'. I've taken the liberty of CC'ing this response to the list for the comments of others. Since you're being cautious, I'd recommend subscribing to the freebsd-questions list, (send mail to majordomo@freebsd.org, with a body saying "subscribe freebsd-questions", [no quotes]), and reading it for a week or two. If the website doesn't answer your questions about hardware compat. post to the list. freebsd-questions is technically oriented. There is a "moral support" mailing list, freebsd-newbies.

Your observations are correct, of course, and the maintainers keep close watch on such developments. Security patches are made available, and can be found on the websites. The most reliable day-to-day source of exploit reports is the Bugtraq mailing list, a carefully moderated "full-disclosure" list. Very little escapes the scrutiny of that list. It is available as a digest. freebsd-security is the "in house" forum for discussion of these issues. The "root kits" and so on from rootshell are useful to the admin for probing his own system.

(I just COULDN'T start out with a negative...) Found a VERY frustrating "thing" going on with my new FreeBSD installation. I can't seem to make any kind of coherent connection to www.freebsd.org or www.de.freebsd.org. Netscape shows "host contacted, awaiting reply". and then times out. Same with www.de.freebsd.org. I can ftp to ftp.freebsd.org (I know this is a different "thing" altogether, appears to actually be ftp.cdrom.com.) If it were ANY other site that I couldn't connect to it would be a LOT different. I've dialed in using the same account froma computer running "the nasty" (95) and had _0_ problems so I know it has to be SOMETHING with the way my computer is talking, or trying to talk" to, the host on the other end. Since the mailing list hasn't been BARRAGED with copmlaints about connecting such as this one, I have to deduce that it is trouble with my setup...Oh...the behaviour of lynx is _identical_. It hits other sites just fine but can't hit www.freebsd.org. Thoughts? EVERYTHING works except when I try to open any web page at www.freebsd.org, OR www.de.freebsd.org) NOTHING that points to freebsd is in the /etc/hosts file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Short Colossians 3:23 ashort@concentric.net http://www.concentric.net/~ashort/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jun 27 22:20:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA28924 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 22:20:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from bmkind.lnk.telstra.net (bmkind.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.51.118]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA28919 for ; Sat, 27 Jun 1998 22:20:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brendan@bmkind.lnk.telstra.net) Received: from localhost (brendan@localhost) by bmkind.lnk.telstra.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id PAA01476 for ; Sun, 28 Jun 1998 15:21:06 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from brendan@bmkind.lnk.telstra.net) Date: Sun, 28 Jun 1998 15:21:06 +1000 (EST) From: Brendan Kosowski To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Secure Web Server 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 Is there a Secure Web Server ( using SSL ) available for FreeBSD ???
