I went to /stand/sysinstall and tried configuring > the thing that way but I cannot get an option of a ethernet card. I'm a little unclear on what you're trying to do. It sounds as though your kernel is configured to support your ethernet card (i.e. you can get out to the net from your FreeBSD machine), but you need to be able to get into it. If that's the case, then maybe you simply don't have the telnet service enabled. To enable it, bring up /etc/inetd.conf in your favorite text editor, and look for the "telnet" line towards the top of the file. Chances are there is a # in front of it. Take the # out, save and exit the file, and then issue this command: "killall -1 inetd". Then see if you can telnet to your machine. If your machine isn't even seeing the net at all, then you have a more basic problem, which is probably that your kernel isn't configured to support your ethernet card. You'd have to enable support for it in your kernel configuration file, recompile your kernel, and restart your system. Configuring the kernel is too long to go into here, but there's a great tutorial in the FreeBSD handbook on the FreeBSD web site, http://www.freebsd.org/handbook, under Section 5: Configuring the FreeBSD kernel. It also explains all the various options for the configuration file, one of which will be the line you'd need to add for your particular ethernet card. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Is there anybody with some performance tests done, so that he can say I'm right or not? I've tested once nat with just loopback and it seemed a lot slower.

The original permissions on the mount point are irrelevant. When the filesystem has been mounted, the root directory's permissions are what become visible. This is perfectly normal.

I have found xntpd spewing the ``drift value xxx invalid'' message into the log file when an empty drift file existed, where `xxx' was garbage. I believe that this comes from ntp_util.c where xntpd is attempting to extract the frequency and mode from the drift file. The fscanf call returns -1 and atolfp is called with buf uninitialized. IIRC, a significant period of time elapsed before the drift file was created. -- Regards, Norman C.

Then type "rm Startme", and before hitting ENTER, hit the TAB key, which will make the shell complete the filename. The shell will automatically escape the | character for you, and after it completes the filename, then hit ENTER to remove it. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Is it possible to boot from sd(1,a) without reformating the first Disk? A friend of mine (he is not a FreeBSD-Newbie like I am) told me, that I have to reformat, use a small Partion (< 100 MB) for FreeBSD, the rest of sd0 for M$ NT.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I was some where in the middle of an ftp install and my ISP dropped me. Some of the system is in tack and I can boot to the freeBSD partition but there are various messages about the root not being mountable. Then I get some messeges regarding checking the file system then it gives me the equivalant of the emergency holographic shell that you get during the install. I had re-connected to my ISP when I noticed there was no downloading going on but the original install did not resume and I couldn't figure out how to get it to go again. Obviously I re-booted the system (or I wouldn't be able to send this messege). As I said, the kernel is there so I can boot to the system but I have no way of knowing what didn't finish getting installed nor do I susspect the system will be properly set up when I finish installing with sysinstall. My questions are these. Where, if anywhere, is the log of what packages/distributions were installed so that I can see what still needs to be gotten (from my preferred dists). I know I need the XFree86 and more sorces (though I don't know which ones may have made it, I do know I can't get to sys@ as the /usr/src directory is not very complete). The other question is, if I do the sysinstall to get the rest of my dists, will the system configure itself properly? It seems to be at least partially ok now as things like 'man' and 'shutdown' are working (I take this to mean that at least some of the paths and other system configurations have been noted, though I could be wrong). At any rate, can I resume/fix the install without having to start from scratch (since at least 4 hours of the install has happened) or at least a way to continue an ongoing install if my ISP drops me again? (presuming I havn't re-booted, ie. re-start ppp and kick the install process back into gear) Thank you for your time and any help you may have, Ray (aka Savant, the dim whitted ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 11 11:23:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA20373 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 11:23:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from turkey.ispro.net.tr (turkey.ispro.net.tr [195.174.18.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA20361 for ; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 11:23:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from yurtesen@turkey.ispro.net.tr) Received: from localhost (yurtesen@localhost) by turkey.ispro.net.tr (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id VAA00207; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 21:22:58 +0300 (EEST) (envelope-from yurtesen@turkey.ispro.net.tr) Date: Sun, 11 Oct 1998 21:22:58 +0300 (EEST) From: Evren Yurtesen To: Bryan Fraser cc: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: Re: Samba Installation help In-Reply-To: <01BDF460.E109DE40@BRYAN> 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 hello you should find the file samba-1.9.18p8.tar.gz from your cd's and put it into /usr/ports/distfiles and then you should try to compile it. bye On Sat, 10 Oct 1998, Bryan Fraser wrote: > I'm trying to install Samba.

While most of Sarah's information is correct, this is not a problem related to the version of FreeBSD. Whether or not the system will automatically recover and continue the boot depends entirely on the type of file system inconsistencies encountered while running the automatic fsck. If the file system is OK or repairable (man fsck for the short list of errors fsck -p will fix) it'll be mounted. If it has any other errors you'll get the "press enter for sh" prompt.

There's no direct way of finding out, unless you have an account somewhere outside the ISP and can traceroute in. Of course, that will only show you one route, and if the ISP is multihomed, that won't help much. You can also do a "whois" on the domain, and see who is providing its nameservice. Sometimes they run their own nameservers, while sometimes they use their upstream provider's. If you see, say, ns.cw.net, that's a good indication that the ISP is homed to Cable & Wireless (formerly MCI). ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

One file in particular that is opened with fopen() as read only is failing with errno EINTR. I looked up interrupted system calls in _Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment_ by W. Richard Stevens who suggest handling the error by simply retrying the system call repeatedly until it succeeds. However doing this results in an infinite loop as the system call never succeeds on any successive retry. Furthermore Richard Stevens goes on to say that 4.3+BSD should restart the system call itself if it is interrupted and disk I/O shouldn't be interrupted in the first place. As far as we can tell this happens about ounce every 100 times the CGI runs. Otherwise the CGI runs normally. Reads on other files never fail in this manner; the file is a regular disk file and the CGI is compiled using gcc 2.7.2.1 on FreeBSD 2.2.5 RELEASE. Thanks in advance for any solution or explanation of this problem. -- Geoffrey Robinson geoffr@globalserve.net Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

I am trying to install the 3.0-19981009-BETA release. Here is my hardware configuration: AMD K6-233 (one of the latest revisions) Intel TX chipset motherboard w/512KB cache 64 MB SDRAM AdvanSys ABP-940 SCSI host adapter, SCSI ID 7 IBM DCAS 2.2 GB Ultra SCSI drive, SCSI ID 0 IBM DCAS 2.2 GB Ultra SCSI drive, SCSI ID 1 Fujitsu 405 MB Fast SCSI-2 drive, SCSI ID 2 NEC 3X SCSI CD-ROM, SCSI ID 3 S3 Virge-based PCI video card SMC EtherPower II (9432TX) PCI Ethernet card PS/2 Logitech mouse I have a dedicated internet connection via the ethernet. The way I partition and label the drives for installation are as follows: Drive 0 (IBM 2.2 GB): 400MB FAT16 (Windows 95 resides here) Remainder FreeBSD FS, mount at: / Leave MBR alone (I had planned on installing System Commander later) Drive 1 (IBM 2.2 GB): Dedicated FreeBSD FS, mount at: /home Drive 2 (Fujitsu 405 MB): Dedicated FreeBSD 202 MB SWAP 202 MB FreeBSD FS, mount at: /scratch I had planned to run the /var and /usr directories off the root FS partition. At boot-time, I configure the kernel and disable all devices that I don't have (including ISA ethernet and SCSI cards, etc). Once I get the installation via FTP started (from ftp.freebsd.org), it progresses to 34% and then crashes. The progress bar reads "Extracting bin into / directory..." The stats bar at the bottom reads: "9438208 bytes read from bin dist, chunk 40 of 116 @ 13.4kB/sec" The error messages are as follows: Panic: ufs_dirbad: bad dir Syncing disks... 143 143 143 70 40 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 giving up (da2:adv0:0:2:0): . CDB: 35 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (da2:adv0:0:2:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc: 20,0 (da2:adv0:0:2:0): And then of course, the automatic reboot stuff, etc. It seems that it's having problems with SCSI device 2, which is the Fujitsu drive. I have scanned the drive for bad sectors with Norton Utils and SpinRite (there aren't any). I have also used the disk heavily under Windows 95 and NT and there have been no problems with it. Thus I don't know why it would have problems with the Fujitsu. Also, the rest of the hardware has also been run under 95 and NT and works fine. Can anyone tell me how to go about getting this resolved? PLEASE CC replies to me personally. Thank you. .______ | Vijay N.

I think the "minimal" install only touches / Yesterday I did one and it was so "minimal" that couldn't really do much with it. :-) One thing you will need to consider was what groups you had and in which order they were created. This applies mostly to groups you created since the standard groups will still have the same number in the entries. I don't really know inner-works, but notice that both groups and user ids have a number in the respective user and group tables. This may be a good time to remind you the importance of backups. :-) ---- francisco@natserv.com The power to serve. http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 11 16:37:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA05397 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 16:37:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from federation.addy.com (federation.addy.com [207.239.68.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA05376 for ; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 16:37:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from francisco@natserv.com) Received: from quisqueya.natserv.com (TC4-dial-166-142.oldslip.inch.com [207.240.142.166]) by federation.addy.com (8.8.5/8.6.12) with ESMTP id TAA03530; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 19:37:30 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199810112337.TAA03530@federation.addy.com> X-Mailer: XFMail 1.3 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Sun, 11 Oct 1998 19:37:59 -0000 (GMT) Reply-To: francisco@natserv.com From: Francisco Reyes To: BEAUPRE Antoine Subject: RE: How to reset FreeBSD?

This was after downloading two files from your site, boot.flp and fdimage.exe. The BIOS on my motherboard doesn't support the 4.0GB hard drive directly . I am therefore running EZ-BIOS as installed by the EZ-DRIVE software which came with the Western Digital hard drive. If I attempt to boot from the new installation boot disk following the EZ-BIOS procedure I get MS-DOS instead fo FreeBSD. If I attempt to boot using on-board BIOS procedure I get only strange beeping sounds and don't see the EZ-BIOS message at all.

I used "tar cbf 200 /dev/rst1 ." and a fresh tape (and I've just used the cleaning cartridge, too). Several minutes into the backup, the system locked solid, and appeared to do some SCSI bus resets.

I think that's a reasonable assumption. The general feeling in the developer community is that they're unreliable devices, and the last thing anybody wants is an unreliable backup system, so nobody is interested in integrating them. The fact that they're not really designed to work in a multiuser environment just adds to that.

The other filesystems should still be there. Are you certain that you did not newfs /dev/wd0s2c (the entire slice) ? Do you have the source on your system? If so, it is in /usr/src. You can reinstall source if you can just get a bootable kernel. You will need some build tools. I don't know if boot.flp has cc and such.

You can just do "make installworld" with out building. Maybe I am stretching, but you should be able to get that partition back without clobbering the others. If you can get the right compile tools you can pull off a 'make world' to reinstall.

I remember clearly having typed "newfs /dev/wd0s2",I mismatched a 4 for a 2. (aaaaargh! Never run as root kids!) Not quite sure. But as I said, the output of newfs was obvious: it may have removed the / partition, but surely didn't have time to get to the others. Maybe it just remove the entries of the /usr, /var and /proc partitions... > Do you have the source on your system? If so, it is in /usr/src.

I tried the install floppy and the only shell I was able to have was the "emergency holographic shell". But maybe the fixit floppy should have these kinda tools. Maybe someone could send me some binaries? My system is a 227Release. If so, what should/could be included in the panic floppy? (my try: -ppp -mount -ls -sh? -cc/gcc -make? -??? I may need a lota stuff from /bin and /sbin... If I can only get to mount /usr, it will be all right (i hope!). > When re-newfsing the root partition ensure that it does not run into the > next partition. Good! > Have you done a recent "make world"? If so, all of your binarries are > already there. You can just do "make installworld" with out building. Damn. I _made_ a make world recently... But I removed /usr/obj!!! (Is that where the binaries are?) I was managing disk space, and moving some stuff around, particularly making a new partition, hence the newfs... But the make world was fast enough... :) > Maybe I am stretching, but you should be able to get that partition back > without clobbering the others.

Perhaps you have no free partition space on that disk? FreeBSD may leave a 64k slice to make sure the slice is cylinder-aligned.

If you *really* want to go to single user mode, you're better off booting. But I can't see any good reason to want to do so.

Exactly what does this message imply? Mel uid 65534 is 'nobody'. The only thing I can think of that sorts as user 'nobody' is locate.updatedb, which is usually run weekly. If you have a lot of files, it could fill up /tmp or /var/tmp (depends on TMPDIR, set in /etc/locate.rc). Try changing the TMPDIR to /usr/tmp, if your /usr is large. -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 Sun Oct 11 20:33:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA26796 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 20:33:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp3.erols.com (smtp3.erols.com [207.172.3.236]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA26791 for ; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 20:33:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from philuint@erols.com) Received: from erols.com (philuint.erols.com [209.122.46.86]) by smtp3.erols.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id XAA23086 for ; Sun, 11 Oct 1998 23:33:07 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <3621852D.EA54E8C1@erols.com> Date: Sun, 11 Oct 1998 23:27:25 -0500 From: Whee Kim Organization: Philuintech, Inc.

You probably have 3.3.1 on your box. pkg_* keeps track of this so you don't delete a port "required by" another port. You can fix this by installing version 3.3.2 or you can just ignore it.

FreeBSD may leave > a 64k slice to make sure the slice is cylinder-aligned. This may be the case. The disk does in fact have no free partition. But so what, when I want to install Win98 over Win95 there is no new partition creation involved. Win98 just says it finds a 64K FAT partition and that's too small to cope with and aborts the setup. I think it's FreeBSD part now to get things straight. Couldn't it mark that 64K partition non-FAT, i.e. 165? I believe then Win98 would leave it's fingers off that partition. > > Doug White > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | www.freebsd.org -- Chris Christoph P.

I've seen strange things like this become possible if you know how, and microsoft isn't telling (recall the popular but undocumented fdisk /mbr). Maybe there's some switch or something that will let you point the upgrader to the partition you want to use. Someone on a windoze newsgroup or similar might have already purchased the simple answer to your problem.

The UNIX way to do this would be first to transfer them (as long as there are no /s in the name, there's no problem), and then rename them with a script. sed is your friend here. I was going to recommend http://www1.daemonnews.org/editing.html, but I see it doesn't address sed. Anyway, it's rather like a filter-based version of ed. > PS... to whoever put all these wonderful bells and whistles into the > ftp client, a big thank you! There's lots of handy stuff in there.

Edwards if you didn't give root a password, then: #login:root #password: (just press return) then give yourself a password #passwd then use the graphical interface to set up user accounts: #/stand/sysinstall then choose: Configure (in menu) then choose: User Management (in menu) then add a group, then a user.

Much to my disopointment I have found that some of the things that I really need to use ( and those about your os that I really like ) don't appear to be available on your cdroms, for example the kde window manager appears to be missing libruaries, and the cdplayer for it refuses to work. The linux emulator that you provided doesn't appear to work properly either. Unfortunately I need the linux emulator inorder to install the jdk ( which isn't on the cd due to the licensing agreement of JAVA ( **snif**). Also with the KDE the mail handler doesn't save the mail once it has been read, if I click on anouther mailbox, it will loose all information in the previous mail box eg, just recived new mail, I read it and then click on the outbox, when I return to the inbox, there are messages there but all information, including sender etc has been lost.

I believe you may want to check into this option Here is something I found at http://www.freebsd.org/search/ I type in PNP kernel support HOPE THIS HELPS YOU !!!! I'm bit new to this stuff: You will need to add the modem's PnP ID to the PnP ID list in the serial driver. To enable Plug & Play support, compile a new kernel with controller pnp0 in the configuration file, then reboot the system. The kernel will print the PnP IDs of all the devices it finds. Copy the PnP ID from the modem to the table in /sys/i386/isa/sio.c, at about line 1200. Look for the string "SUP1310" in the structure "siopnp_ids[]" to find the table. Build the kernel again, install, reboot, and your modem should be found. Dmitry Kiryukhin wrote: > > Hello! > > Can you help me please? I have FreeBSD 2.2.6.

What was particularly disturbing was that it was owned by root.... Has anyone run into this at all? Any idea why it could happen?

This happens consistently on three different FreeBSD systems all running 2.2.7R. The disk is indeed bad and probably needs throwing away or reformatting. However, getting to my question, the mount man page states that "It is possible for a corrupted file system to cause a crash", so, does this mean that the developers don't want me to report this as a bug? I have created an image of the floppy, if anybody's interested :-) FreeBSD rdls.sw.wan 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Wed Jul 22 08:48:29 GMT 1998 root@builder.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 -- Richard Smith Assistant Chief Engineer TRL Technology Limited To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Oct 12 06:13:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA19244 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 06:13:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from primera.sm.rim.or.jp (primera.sm.rim.or.jp [202.247.131.89]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA19238 for ; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 06:13:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from koikej@sm.rim.or.jp) Received: from austin.sm.rim.or.jp (ppp105.sm.rim.or.jp [202.247.138.105]) by primera.sm.rim.or.jp (8.8.5/3.6W-RIMNET-98-06-09) with ESMTP id WAA12477; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 22:13:07 +0900 (JST) Received: from localhost by austin.sm.rim.or.jp (8.8.8/3.6Wbeta5-97073000) id WAA02768; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 22:17:07 +0900 (JST) To: zhase@cc.canon-sales.co.jp Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCRjA6bjxCQFMkcjY1JCgkRjI8JDUkJCEjGyhC?= In-Reply-To: Your message of "Mon, 12 Oct 1998 19:48:12 +0900" <4925669B.003ADE30.00@smtpmta01.cc.canon-sales.co.jp> References: <4925669B.003ADE30.00@smtpmta01.cc.canon-sales.co.jp> X-Mailer: Mew version 1.93 on XEmacs 20.4 (Emerald) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <19981012221707W.koikej@sm.rim.or.jp> Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 22:17:07 +0900 From: Jun Koike X-Dispatcher: imput version 980905(IM100) Lines: 7 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Please use English on this mailing list.

I am using FreeBSD 2.2.7 and apache_fp-1.2.6 I've managed to get the virtual hosts working fine,but I am experircing problems setting up sub-web user. I am using the following command to create a sub-web user in the format of: http://cww.orangenet.co.uk/username I don't realy want to use ~username fpsrvadm.exe -o install -p 80 -w username -u username -pw ascii_passwd -s /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf Where username is the name of the frontpage sub-web,as above. Also username is the name of the users home directory where the page are stored. ascii_passwd the password for username. The permissions on root web are : user www and group www the permissions on the sub-webs are: user www and group username The root web is in the direcotry: /web/homeuser The sub-web is the the directory: /web/homeuser/username When I use this script the user gets created and I can login to thier directory using Front Page 98 program. But when I try to upload the new pages or amendments to server I get the following error: This operation requires administrator permissions for root web. Is there a way in which I can create the sub-web so that it has administrator permissions to upload. thanks \\\/// / _ _ \ (| (.)(.) |) -----------------.OOOo--()--oOOO.------------------------------------------- --------------------- Imran Aslam -- OrangeNET Ltd Web Site: www.orangenet.co.uk Systems Administrator 4 Park Royal Metro Centre Voice : +44 181 9306270 Ext 207 Britannia Way, Park Royal Fax : +44 181 4531822 London, NW10 7PA E-mail : mailto:imran@orangenet.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- -----------------------.oooO------------------------------------------------ -------------------------- ( ) Oooo. \ ( ( ) \_) ) / ( _ / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Oct 12 06:39:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA22439 for freebsd-questions-outgoing;

The routes will immediately repopulate if they are static, connected, or being received via a routing protocol. To permanently delete routes, you must either remove the route from the config, or block the route at an RP level. IF the route is static, there should be a line that looks like: ip route in the config. Simply type no then the ip route command, and the route will disappear. IF it is a dynamic route, things become a little trickier. You must first determine which protocol (rip, eigrp, ospf, etc.) you are learning the route from, then create a distribute list, or some other means, to block that route from being learned. To find out how a route is learned, do a show ip route .

You need to copy /usr/local.include/proplist.h to the src directory of the extracted WindowMaker distribution, and you have to copy /usr/local/lib/libPropList.a to /libPropList/libPropList.a. (I'm not sure if that second thing is right, but I *Think* that's what I did...). By the way, None of the compiled versions worked on my system. All three above mentioned versions segmentation faulted and died.

If you didn't set it during installation (you had the option to) your root passowrd us "", so just type "root" and hit enter. (It might be a good idea to change that... type "passwd" to do it). Users are added with "adduser", you should make a non-superuser account so you don't accidently mess things up as root. If you can't remember your root password and it isn't just enter, there is a way of getting it (I won't go in to it now, but if this is the case ask and I'll mail it to you).

Once I updated the *.mk files, however, it built like a champ. Just cvsup over the latest sources (I'm using 2.2.7). Then copy /usr/src/share/mk/* over /usr/share/mk to get the latest makefile rules. Now back to the original poster's problem (which I am also experiencing): windowmaker installs fine, but it gives a SIGBUS when it runs. I recompiled the port with debug information, generated another core file and tried to see where it failed. Unfortunately, the stack frame gave a bunch of ??s which didn't help.

An alternative method would be to use a graphical FTP client and click on the file names.

At this point, I seem to have only one real problem. I can only access my ATAPI CD-ROM drive under very certain circumstances. I have to cold-boot my computer with the CD-ROM that I want to look at in the drive. Warm-boots don't make a difference. If I do the cold-boot, then I can mount and umount until my heart is content--as long as I don't open the tray. As soon as I open the tray (the volume unmounted, of course) and close it again, I can't mount the volume. It does not matter if it is a different disc or the same one. It will not mount until I cold-boot. This gets old real quick! I have tried various forms of the mount command and the mount_cd9660 command directly. With the mount command I just get an obscure "cd9660: /dev/wcd0a: Input/output error" (I am doing this from memory). With the mount_cd9660 command I get a different, but equally obscure command. Something about not being able to find the first session. I then tried using '-s 0' with mount_cd9660 since that is what '-v' reported, but it still does not work. Any help would be appreciated.

The problems I had encountered are: 1- During initial bootup, when given the possibility of booting from a more custom kernel, I had removed the Syscon Console without knowing what that actually did (big no-no in any circumstances). 2- During the partitionning portion of the install, I asked to check for bad sectors. It froze when it attempted to do so. I know that the BAD144 implementation isn't perfect yet, but if it's there, it should work for a fairly generic system like mine (at least there's nothing that mentions in which known cases the check will not react properly). If there's anything I can do, I'd like to know. 3- I hadn't read properly the notice before setting up XFree86 the first time, and was running the mouse daemon. For some reason, even when resetting the mouse to /dev/sysmouse (can't remember if that's the proper device, but you get the picture) it wouldn't stick unless I restarted the setup (XFree86Setup). It seems to work now. This is a CD-Rom install of a recently purchased 2.2.7. Something I'd like to know is that, since some things are evidently lisence or export restricted (qt131, pgp262, rsaref) why have packages on the first CD that require these packages installed if you don't have these packages on the CD. I'll RTFM more over the week, but it seems only normal that if you have packages on the install CD, you'd also include all the other packages these depend on. I've had many instances where I was getting these messages. All the KDE stuff, which depends on qt131, was flaging the missing package. I've been trying to run XFree86 and only got a blank screen. Unless there are other issues I overlooked, my guess is that finding the qt package will fix this last problem. I'll check on the third and fourth CD if the package is there, if not, I may have it lying around somewhere (hopefully). There are four questions in this message. The first one, why does the BAD144 check freeze up on my system. The second one, why aren't packages which are a dependancy to others, written on the same (first) CD that all the others are. The third, where can I find these packages (as I said, my guess is the third CD, if not, it'll take a while to transfer them to my FreeBSD box, since it's not connected to the net and won't be for a while). Fourth, if my idea of qt131 being the reason why XFree won't show anything yet isn't all that is wrong, then what else could be missing?

Using printf(1) will give more consistent results than echo; echo's different on SYSV. BSDs echo will ``echo'' what you type, so \t == \t. oxtabs will translate your tab character to the necessary number of spaces at the tty driver level so that the target terminal device has no control over tab stop widths - it only ever gets to see a series of spaces instead. I believe -tabs gives the same effect in SYSV. > thanks, > jim -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

Although not perfect design-wise (and rejected by the IETF because of this), CBCP is better than the RAW options. > ---- > francisco@natserv.com > The power to serve. http://www.freebsd.org -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

Is this feasible? 2. My laptop and desktop machines have IP addresses. Do I need a new (legitimate) one for the second card, or can I use one of the "private" addresses since no one should need to address card2 from anywhere outside of my office? 3. How do I tell card2 to send what it gets out on card1? 4. How do I tell card1 to accept stuff addressed to the laptop and forward it along to card2? 5. Are there any handy scripts for switching between configurations of laptops? I've been working through the O'Reilly TCP/IP Network Administration book, but I'm not sure what to do.

The CD that comes with the book is an exact copy of the first CD (of a set of 4 CDs) from the 2.5.5 distribution and the installation should not pose any problems. It would seem however that the CD label did not get copied during the mastering of the CD and because of that the install program will not recognize the CD as being a 2.2.5 CD but that should not be a major problem. If people are having problems, feel free to send me email and I'll try to be of help to you. If there's a problem with the CD, we'll find it and fix it in future reprints. If you are in a hurry, the CD contains everything you need to build a boot floppy. Using it, you could do a network install.

Using the > standard FTP client you can try using wildcard characters > (`*' and `?') to complete the file names, but YMMV. The plain ftp client does tab completion, wildcards, and command history too. Some ftp commands rely on the capabilities of the remote machine, and others the local machine. None of the above features work on a remote ftp server that thinks all the world is a mouse. But that's not my problem. Getting the file off the macintosh is OK. The only way is 'get "silly name of file"', no matter what client I use. Then later, on my own machine I go mv "silly name of file" newname or mv sil* newname so that I don't have to deal with the spaces etc in the original name. For one or two files, that's easy enough. For lots of files, I could learn how to run a script on my machine to rename them afterwards. But after reading the ftp man page, I see there is a better method and I want to use it. The standard ftp client has a feature which can be activated to rename all files automatically as it writes them to the local disk. I want to learn how to use this feature of ftp. It is simple, and documened, but I don't understand the syntax. Commands which depend on a cooperative ftp server are futile. It is fairly easy to get the files to here from the server. There are unixy ways to deal with the names after files arrive here. I have an ftp client that can do this renaming on the fly. I want to know how to use the ftp client to do this. Why? Because it's there, because I'm perverse, an idiot, stubborn, curious, it seems like a fun thing to do, and because someone else might find it handy too. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Oct 12 12:35:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA22049 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:35:51 -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 MAA22021 for ; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:35:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA07751; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:35:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:35:18 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: PuFFDaDDz@aol.com cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: question In-Reply-To: <6cd99178.362184cd@aol.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 12 Oct 1998 PuFFDaDDz@aol.com wrote: > i can not get 2.27 to work with 3com 3c905 nic 905 or 905B?

CRiSP has an extremely powerful macro language which is platform independent. The macro language has been used for development of multiple independent products. A large protion of CRiSP is writen in its own macro language. This language lets you develop platform (UNIX, Windows) independent enhancements.

If you have to ask, you should run 2.2.8. 3.0 is more of a 'checkpoint' release than a full-fledged introduction to the 3.0 architecture. 2.2.8 will summarize existing changes to the -STABLE tree, and will officially terminate that branch. The follow-on to 3.0, 3.0.1 or 3.0.5 or whatever, will be the next big target after 2.2.8; 3.0 should be in good shape by then.

What are the disks up to? At this point the kernel mounts up the root filesystem and kicks off init. If you're getting that WARNING then the system crashed. You probably have serious damage to you root filesystem; time to grab the fixit floppy and the install disc.

Oh, it's enabled, although after I wrote that message, I did yet more testing, and found something else out. After the modem answers the line, the getty process dies, and a new one immediately starts up. It's almost as if getty is calling login, but somehow failing, and then it just drops the DTR line, making the modem hang up. I can't say for sure, though, especially in light of the fact that even dialing into Minicom on the FreeBSD box isn't working. I get a connection, but garbage after that. Are any particularly special ownerships and permissions required for login and getty? Here's what they are on my system: [279]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /usr/bin/login -r-sr-xr-x 1 root bin 24576 Sep 14 21:38 /usr/bin/login* [281]data@ds9:/home/data % ls /usr/libexec/getty -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 24576 Sep 14 21:36 /usr/libexec/getty* I also did a "strings" on getty, and it looks to be calling /usr/bin/login, so I don't think it's not finding login: [282]data@ds9:/home/data % strings /usr/libexec/getty | grep login ppplogin login _login_tty login: /usr/bin/login > Perhaps your FreeBSD and NT modems hate each other? That's what I thought at first, but I also booted my NT machine into Linux and used Minicom on it, and got the same results. I also get identical results when dialing in from another outside computer. That's why this is so darn mystifying. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Anyone else have this problem? You have to build Windowmaker from the sources at ftp.windowmaker.org. The libraries for libPropList have changed, and if you use the wrong ones you get really strange bus-errors/seg-faults. Using the ports-system to update Windowmaker is almost impossible 'cos the sources for Windowmaker change on a fortnightly basis! Just ftp the sources, unpack, and *then* unpack libPropList.tar.gz, configure/make it; then configure/make Windowmaker. I've got 0.20.1 running fine on my 2.2.7-R box. Cheers.

That's what I figured (in a sense). But why isn't there a notice stating that for a CD-Rom install, the user who wants to run KDE (this IS the default, isn't it?) will need to get QT from the net? Also, I mentionned pgp262 and rsaref. I'm pretty sure I can get pgp2.6.2 from the net, but I have no clue where to find rsaref. Chances are they aren't on the CD's either (encryption export restriction) so I'll have to get both of them from the net also. I know they have pgp5.0i on the FreeBSD site. I'm not sure which of the packages required these two programs, but I know there were many. Why not leave a notice in the package installation program that says that these packages can't be placed on CD and have to be downloaded separately? It would just be a lot easier for a first time installer to quickly understand what's not working and why, and how to fix it. Sorry if this message is formatted strangely, I still haven't figured out how to make Outlook behave (and I can't use Netscape to read MS Mailboxes...) Thanks for your help!

If the local file name is not specified, it is given the same name it has on the remote machine. . . Perhaps it is just too simple. It is a well established documentation convention that anything in [square brackets] is an optional parameter to a command. That is what the documentation refers to when it says that if the local name is not specified, it gets the same name as the remote file on your local machine. So, if you want to download "silly file with spaces" and store it as "not_so_silly" on your machine, you'd do: ftp> get silly file with spaces not_so_silly I *imagine* but wouldn't swear to ftp being smart enough to recognize the first bit as the file name and not try to get a file called "silly file with spaces not_so_silly" however I haven't tested it. It might be necessary to put the filename on the remote machine in quotes. If it doesn't work at all even with the quotes, it's a bug and you should send a PR on it.

Ooh - installing over is not usually a good idea. If you used the port to install it you can do the following (as root): cd /var/db/pkg pkg_delete old_port_I_don't_want If you have CVSupped the latest ports you can then go to the ports tree to build the latest greatest version. Note that things like imlib that may have been installed w/ say Enlightenment may need a "pkg_delete -f old_port" as they are listed as dependencies.

That's what I figured (in a sense). But why isn't there a notice stating that for a CD-Rom install, the user who wants to run KDE (this IS the default, isn't it?) will need to get QT from the net? Also, I mentionned pgp262 and rsaref. I've gotten pgp2.6.2 from the net, but I have no clue where to find rsaref. Chances are they aren't on the CD's either (encryption export restriction) so I'll have to get both of them from the net also. I know they have pgp5.0i on the FreeBSD site. I'm not sure which of the packages required these two programs, but I know there were many. Why not leave a notice in the package installation program that says that these packages can't be placed on CD and have to be downloaded separately? It would just be a lot easier for a first time installer to quickly understand what's not working and why, and how to fix it. Sorry if this message is formatted strangely, I still haven't figured out how to make Outlook behave (and I can't use Netscape to read MS Mailboxes...) Thanks for your help!

Everything that Brett has said is good. I would just add that sometimes old crufty software depend on old crufty libraries. You may want to make a closer examination of what you need. I did have one case, one time, where I needed an old library to get something working. Eventually the port was upgraded to the new libary and all was good. The way FreeBSD does this excellent. It does not _assume_ that you want to get rid of old crufty stuff. Certain commercial OS will.

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 Dear Daemon Doctors: Any help with the following problem on a 2.2.6 GENERIC system would be most appreciated. Symptoms: User PPP connections hangup anywhere from 2 to 60 minutes into the session. Carrier appears to stay up. PPP appears to stay up. Route to host appears to stay up. But, if the download of a web page stalls in any way, everything hangs and the tun0 device becomes inaccessible. I.e. you can't free it to open a new page or connection. This happens with lynx, with popclient, telnet, netscape. The only way I can clear it is to close PPP then quit, then redial for another try. When this happens netstat -rn will show a seemingly good jroute; ppp "show route" shows a good route; but both netstat and netstat -r will hang. If netstat eventually clears, it will show the last route as an open tcp socket in the FIN_WAIT_1 state. See the screens and configs which follow. What I've tried: Got and built latest PPP downloaded from awfulhak and built 9-27-98. Rebuilt /dev/tun0. Configured with and without localhost dns, with and without ppp "enable dns", have run as ppp interactive and ppp -auto. Pertinent config files and output follow: ppp.conf-- default: set log Phase Chat Connect lcp ipcp ccp command allow user logname set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 115200 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" relay: set phone "3728600" #Separate multiple phone numbers with a | set login "TIMEOUT 30 gin:-BREAK-gin: logname word: xxx" disable lqr deny lqr disable pred1 deny pred1 set timeout 0 set openmode active 10 pmdemand: set phone "3728600" set login "TIMEOUT 30 gin:-BREAK-gin: logname word: xxx" disable lqr deny lqr disable pred1 deny pred1 set timeout 300 set server +3000 test set openmode active 10 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR rc.conf-- #!/bin/sh #

I regularly run the Linux version of Communicator 4.07 with US encryption in emulation (on 2.2.7-RELEASE).

One "why not" for me, anyways, is that there's no such thing as a US encryption release for FreeBSD, and for some work I do, that's a "must have". (Rant on encryption politics omitted...)

No. 3.X will compile to ELF by default (though you can change this, too, if you really want), but it will run all old a.out executables, including most of my old BSD/386 1.0 binaries. Currently there is no provision for loading a.out and ELF relocatables to a single binary.

What's the version of your FAT partition? FAT32 or FAT16? If it's FAT32, you need FreeBSD 2.2.7. The ccmmand would be: "mount -v -t msdos /dev/wd0s1 /dos" to mount it or "mount -rv -t msdos /dev/wd0s1 /dos" to mount it read-only (what I do to protect it from crash) "umount -v /dev/wd0s1" to unmount it. Edit /etc/fstab with something like that: "/dev/wd0s1 /dos msdos ro 0 0" And the permission are setted by the mount point, /dos in this case.

The best thing to do is to install sendmail 8.9.1, which comes with builtin spam blocking. The documentation is a bit disorganized, but it's all there. 8.9.1 is the current version of the port, so you can just download it from the ftp site and build it. > Running 2.2.7 -stable. That comes with sendmail 8.8.8. You'll need to upgrade the port.

Does that fits in a single Floppy Disk ? PicoBSD fits on a single floppy, but you'll have to accept the TCP/IP support. I don't know how much use it will be to you for OS design studies. The sources are available at ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD. See http://www.freebsd.org/~picobsd/ for more information about PicoBSD.

The > underlying open() is dying. Are you using any wacky open flags? Here is the function where the problem is occurring. Turns out that the same error is occurring in a similar function in another program that runs many times a second. The error happens on the fread(), we tried logging errno when this happened and found that it is EINTR. We thought the problem may be related to the number of times the CGI runs (sometimes with bursts over 15 times a second) and tried locking the record so only one program could read at a time but it made no difference. Other than the number of times it runs I can't see anything wrong with it myself. Could it be exceeding some resource limit?

You should check out the handbook if you have it installed or www.freebsd.org/handbook for info about PPP (you might also try www.freebsd.org/tutorials for the Pedantic PPP Primer). KDE is on the 4th CD, so you should be able to type (as root) "mount /cdrom", followed by "cd /usr/ports/x11/kde", "make" "make install" and "make clean", which will install the KDE port. If you want to mount your Winblows filesystem in FreeBSD, you'll need to use "mount_msdos /dev/*d*s* /mnt", the *'s in that being s/w depending on SCSI or IDE disk, 0,1,2 etc. for the disk number (0 being the first disk in the machine), and then a number for which slice (partition) winblows resides in (0, 1, 2, but probably 0 or 1). Read the handbook on your machine or on www.freebsd.org. Get Greg Lehey's book, "The Complet FreeBSD: Second Edition" (buy it from Walnut Creek (www.cdrom.com) or it's on one of the cd's) Asks us (freebsd-questions) questions. Read man pages. (start with "man man") All that and you should do fine. ;) -Spike Gronim sporkl@ix.netcom.com The majority only rules those who let them.

The whole name needs to be quoted or else it thinks they're separate files. ftp> get "silly file with space" not_so_silly seems to be the way. That's a big help for individual files.

It's hard to see how to combine wildcards with quoted filenames. The mac ftp server misunderstands wildcards anyway (I think it's treating asterisks as letters). There's still more stuff in the ftp man page that might be usable by someone else, not me. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Oct 12 19:46:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA10818 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 19:46:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from PigStuy.dyn.ml.org (nyc-ny65-59.ix.netcom.com [209.109.224.251]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA10742 for ; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 19:45:52 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from spork@ix.netcom.com) Received: from localhost (spork@localhost) by PigStuy.dyn.ml.org (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id WAA07154; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 22:41:31 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from spork@ix.netcom.com) X-Authentication-Warning: PigStuy.dyn.ml.org: spork owned process doing -bs Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 22:41:25 -0400 (EDT) From: Spike Gronim X-Sender: spork@PigStuy.dyn.ml.org Reply-To: sporkl@ix.netcom.com To: Josh cc: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: Important questions.

I suppose the Subject: describes the problem quite well: yes, you're confused. The FreeBSD (not FREEBSD) operating system is called FreeBSD. > I have talked to other developers about FREEBSD and they tried your > home site and managed to download hundreds of files,but no complete > OS. I see why they stuck with UNIX. FreeBSD is UNIX. I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. > I just wanted to see what the problems were.

No, the reason why FreeBSD is not as well distributed (I don't think I'd use the word "mainstream" in distinguishing between them) is because of the USL wars. USL (UNIX Systems Laboratories) was the arm of AT&T that, in 1992, was responsible for development and marketing of UNIX System V. They objected to the release of BSD UNIX, and sued the various distributors of BSD UNIX. There was finally an out-of-court settlement, and one of the conditions was that BSDs would no longer use UNIX in their name. > Do not take this the wrong way.

But to be quite honest, I don't personally care too much. There are enough people left who can tell the difference between an operating system and a marketing gimmick, and we're quite busy helping them. Remember, we don't make any money out of this.

I have a P-II/266, 64 megs ram, 5.7gig eide drive, zip, toshiba cdrom, usr 56k v90, etc etc. the usuals. I am running FreeBSD 2.2.6 on it. I have previously used qvwm, however grew tired of it. So I tried ICEWM. Overall I like it the best of the different managers provided with the distribution CD's. Ok..now, my problem is this.. Under ICEWM, ICQ is unable to create new windows for sending/receiving events. They appear for a brief instant, and disappear as fast as you can blink. It logs events as received even tho I never get to view them. This only happens in ICEWM btw.. olvwm, fvwm, qvwm all worked fine. I looked for any kind of docs, man pages, anything to point to a better place to check on this..but I could find nothing for ICEWM on my system..not even an 'about' to indicate who made it and a web site to check. I also had another question for it..It does not offer 'On top' as an option for windows..as such any window is pushed behind the active window. This is rather troublesome for items like ICQ or fxtv. I saw no way to edit the menu selections for right click on window bars like some of the other managers had. Is there any way to accomplish this or perhaps a option added at the command line invoking these programs x will recognize? Please reply to this email as I am not on the mail list right now. And thanks in advance to any who help. It is appreciated :) Steve ------=_NextPart_000_0003_01BDF649.4DF836C0 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment;

My only experience with unix was using "pine" at UW. I do pretty well now. Try http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html FreeBSD has a program which identifies the main OS for you. That's right! You don't even have to know _what_ you need to download. You just need to read the directions. Don't take this as spam or a flame or anything but, if you had clicked on the "follow these instructions" link in the home page you would have been drinking Java(tm) while finishing an install in less time than it took to write the above message. So come on back and download that boot floppy and you will be on your way.

Simply go to the www.freebsd.org web page, follow the link that says installation procedure or something like that, then follow the instructions! It's been made so you download TWO files, a boot floppy image, and the program to make a boot floppy. The installation program takes care of everything else!

I'm not a guy, and those files may be confusing but most are not supplementary. Looks like you got more than you bargained for :-) Follow the installation instructions to the letter and you'll see that downloading all of the files is not a necessary step. If you don't like reading instructions, you're not going to like FreeBSD one little bit. > I just wanted to see what the problems were. Oh? Then why are you interested enough to waste our time? I think you wanted more than that but were disappointed when it became confusing. In fact, I think you saw yourself possibly contributing to the FreeBSD Project in time, and then all your dreams went up in smoke when you didn't find Square One. No wonder you're feeling angry! This mailing list is watched by over a thousand very busy and knowledgeable people... plus a few like me :-) If you have a question to present, show how you've tried to solve the problem yourself and you'll get all the help you could want. If you feel the need to let off steam, try not to do it in public. If you really must, then pop over to freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org where we don't answer questions but have the time to listen and if necessary forgive. A lot of newbies still remember microsoft and confusion. > Got to go.... I will check you home page in a few months to try > again. FREEBSD sounds encouraging and versatile. Good idea. Some of us are looking forward to seeing you again :-) Meanwhile a few issues like those you raised are mentioned in articles in this month's Daemon News (http://www.daemonnews.org/contents.html). You might find it interesting.

I don't get that far... The sequence of events from a clean boot and logging in as root, are: 1) insert floppy 2) mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy 3) cat /floppy/etc.tgz 4) panic... I must reiterate that the floppy disk's image is indeed bad, dos chkdsk reports that the first allocation unit of the file in question is invalid. With good floppy disks, I have no problem. The problem I have is not with the fact that step 3) fails, but the severity of the failure mode. Should msdosfs handle the failure mode rather than panicking? ie. Is it a bug or a feature? :) Thanks for responding, Richard. > > Doug White > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | www.freebsd.org -- Richard Smith Assistant Chief Engineer TRL Technology Limited To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 01:47:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA23095 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 01:47:03 -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 BAA23086 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 01:46:59 -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 BAA11374; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 01:44:57 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199810130844.BAA11374@implode.root.com> To: john@hf.ukrtel.net cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Does Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+ NIC supported?

NcFTP 3 has a command-line utility called ncftpput, which will do what you want. It also has ncftpget, which is equivalent to the more powerful (IMHO) GNU wget tool. You might also want to look at lftp, which also has batching abilities (AFAIK). -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 01:57:58 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA25041 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 01:57:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp.algonet.se (tomei.algonet.se [194.213.74.114]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA25026 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 01:57:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ola@datalink.se) Received: (qmail 20417 invoked from network); 13 Oct 1998 10:57:40 +0200 Received: from du160-246.ppp.algonet.se (HELO WinProxy.anywhere) (195.100.246.160) by tomei.algonet.se with SMTP; 13 Oct 1998 10:57:40 +0200 Received: from 192.168.1.10 by 192.168.1.1 (WinProxy); Tue, 13 Oct 1998 11:07:00 +0100 Message-ID: <36231596.B6D3449C@datalink.se> Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 10:55:50 +0200 From: Ola Samuelson X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (Win98; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: BSD and Internet applications Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi!

My system has a SCSI card not detected by FreeBSD (Buslogic BT950 flash) and 1 ide disk. Linux is installed on two scsi disks (sda and sdb) while freebsd and dos (win95 fat16) on the ide disk (hda). Dos --> hda1 FreeBSD --> hda2 and hda3 I have a bios that can boot from cdrom, ide or scsi. I usually boot from scsi. Since my scsi is not detected by freeBSD, i have installed it disabling the scsi for the installation. Now that everything seems ok, i'd like to boot linux, win and FreeBSD from lilo. I have modified the lilo.conf but when at boot i choose the freebsd partition, the boot starts and at the end i get an error message that say that cannot mount the root partition and the system reboot. What to do?

I don't quite understand what you mean. Firstly, CGI isn't a scripting language, it's an interface specification. CGI applications can be written in just about any programming language, and most (all?) Web servers on any operating system you can name support it. Secondly, surely your NT "internet applications" were written in some language or another...?

If you explicitly don't want to use CGI, there are inline scripting languages which do things analogous to what ASP does with NT/IIS.

If so, the "ed" driver will work for you. If the board is on the ISA bus, you will have to know which IRQ, DMA channel and IO space it uses (with can generally be set via a setup diskette). If the card is on the PCI bus, all is much simpler (the driver probes the PCI bus for you).

The kernel detects the card and dmesg gives the following: de0: rev 34 int a irq on pci0:18:0 de0: 21140A (10-100Mb/s) pass 2.2 de0: address 00:c0:f0:31:h3:pb If I try to ping anyone internally I get no route to host, if I try to ftp externally I get a host name lookup failure and if I run Apache on the machine no-one can connect to it. All I did was take out the old card which was an NE2000 compatible running on a 10Mb/s cable and install this card with exactly the same cable. When it didn't work I put the old card in and it worked fine again. Do I need to do anything else or is there a problem with the card ? Can I run any other checks on it ? How do I get it to work ? :-) Thanks. -- Gary Hall Management Information Systems Manager MCG Graphics Ltd e-mail: gary.hall@mcg-graphics.com web: http://www.mcg-graphics.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 07:35:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA29379 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 07:35:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA29374 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 07:35:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) id JAA24508; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:34:50 -0500 (CDT) Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:34:50 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Greg Lehey , Joe Shevland , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Spam block Message-ID: <19981013093450.A24210@emsphone.com> References: <3622A2E1.D6658977@TurnAround.com.au> <19981013110934.W21983@freebie.lemis.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=6TrnltStXW4iwmi0 X-Mailer: Mutt 0.94.3i In-Reply-To: <19981013110934.W21983@freebie.lemis.com>; from "Greg Lehey" on Tue Oct 13 11:09:34 GMT 1998 X-OS: FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --6TrnltStXW4iwmi0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii In the last episode (Oct 13), Greg Lehey said: > On Tuesday, 13 October 1998 at 11:46:25 +1100, Joe Shevland wrote: > > After reading a recent thread in -hackers I've become interested in > > blocking mail from certain servers/ISPs/users (Juno looks to be > > first on the list, I think followed by Hotmail to spite).

I use a procmail script to block most of my spam though. Sendmail 8.9.1 plus the RBL feature is good for blocking persistant spammers, but one-time spam coming from small ISPs or relayed through misconfigured company mail servers is hard to block with sendmail. Here's a copy of my procmail rule, which bounces an error back to the sender and dumps the email in my "spam" folder. I check it every few days, just in case a legitimate user from yahoo/msn/hotmail etc, tried to send me something.

When it was done the file was still not in /usr/src/netinet. Did a "find" and the entire /netinet directory is in /usr/src/sys/netinet.

Can anyone point me to discussions of the different tools available to FreeBSD for burning audio CDs? I've seen references to a bunch of different ones but was curious as to which are most popular. I've got an HP 8100 CD-RW. Also, I'd love it if anyone can tell me what the state of things with x11amp and FreeBSD is. I've tried multiple versions including one that claims to have broken the reliance on OSS and none of them work. 0.8 complains that it can't get fragment size. Thanks a bunch for any assistance. Brian P.S. I'm not on this list anymore. If anyone could CC me at this address, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Curiously enough, it does. Cold-boot or warm booting from Windows will let me see the disc that is in the drive. When I do a dmesg, I do not see any error messages like "atapi.1.0: unknown phase" or any other error messages for that matter. The boot does a noticeable pause (10-15 seconds) when it comes to the secondary IDE card, but not for the primary one. It then pauses again (about 10 seconds) before the messages for the CD-ROM drive. Finally, if I have cold booted or warm booted from Windows, I get a messages indicating that I have a 120mm disc inserted in the tray and that it is unlocked. If I warm boot, I do not get that message at all or any variant. I have made sure that the disc was fully spun up (and then some) before trying to mount. No difference. For grins I did try it while it was spinning up to see if there was a difference. I get a message telling me that the tray is open if I have booted in verbose mode (-v). Could this be a kernel option issue? Any other thoughts would be appreciated...

Did you enable the correct type of card when you got to the first screen after booting? (The one where you pick the various devices you have.) This card's type is vx0, so you'll want to be sure that you pick that type of ethernet card, and no others. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

If you have FreeBSD installed, and you find yourself always having to boot from a floppy (like I do), I have a tip that can help you. Make a second copy of your FreeBSD install floppy Figure out the correct boot parameter to boot your FreeBSD. Doug suggested 'wd(0,a)/kernel'. Personally, I use '1:wd(1,a)kernel' for booting off of the slave drive on my primary IDE controller. After you get FreeBSD booted, mount the floppy 'mount /dev/fd0 /mnt' and edit the file /mnt/boot.config. Edit this file to have one line, which will be your boot parameter. unmount your floppy with 'umount /mnt'. Next time you boot with that floppy, the default boot parameter will be what you typed in. You can still change it at the prompt if you need to, but it will default to you hard drive instead of the floppy. I am not sure why this is not documented anywhere, perhaps it is just "understood". The closest thing I could find in the mailing list archives was to recompile the kernel and build a custom boot floppy. This seems so much easier. Perhaps Mr. Lehey will consider putting this tip in the next edition of "The Complete FreeBSD" ;-). > -----Original Message----- > From: Doug White [SMTP:dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu] > Sent: Monday, October 12, 1998 1:39 PM > To: aw625@lafn.org > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: boot.flp problem > > On Sun, 11 Oct 1998 aw625@lafn.org wrote: > > > Imade an installation boot disk following the instructions found at > > www.freebsd.org but am unable to make it work.

Why not? There are other ways to find out valid usernames. $ cd /home $ ls may work (depending on where your home directories are). True, you could `chmod o-r /home' but I really can't see the point. $ cd /var/mail $ ls to see who has a mailbox, which most users will have even if it's empty.

Because many programs, such as "ls" and "ps" make use of the information; if you prevent non-root use of the information, those programs fail (or have reduced functionality). There comes a point where you need to decide who you can trust and with what. In its formative years, UNIX was largely in environments where everyone who had (legitimate) access to a given system could reaasonably be trusted with the information in question. It may well be argued that there are situations now where this is not the case. If you need to maintain such an environment, you have a non-trivial amount of work to do to set it up, and if so, you might want to get in touch with others who might also have such concerns, so you can share the workload & experiences... assuming, of course, that you trust each other enough. :-}, david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 09:21:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA11488 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:21:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pau-amma.whistle.com (s205m64.whistle.com [207.76.205.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA11483 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:21:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw@whistle.com) Received: (from dhw@localhost) by pau-amma.whistle.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id JAA20394; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:20:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw) Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:20:27 -0700 (PDT) From: David Wolfskill Message-Id: <199810131620.JAA20394@pau-amma.whistle.com> To: Emmanuel.Gravel@CAS.honeywell.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Install glitches In-Reply-To: <417E587B9C99D111A1010000F803B7CE4DD82C@az77-revere.bcasd.az.honeywell.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >From: "Gravel, Emmanuel (AZ77)" >Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 17:13:02 -0700 >That's what I figured (in a sense).

The folks on #FreeBSD had a couple opinions on this (I dunno if they are right, I'm just repeating what I heard). First, they think that at 550 transactions per second, the 10Mbs network card was getting close to saturated, so adding RAM wouldn't help any. Second, do you think the folks at PC Mag recompiled their kernel to utilize more than 64MB of RAM? I think they worded that in an ambiguous way: "WinNT surpassed FreeBSD." That's what they wanted you to read, but I think what they actually meant was, "WinNT's increase in performance with added memory surpassed FreeBSD's increase in performance with added memory." That of course just means that WinNT needed more RAM, while FreeBSD was perfectly happy with what it had.

It mounted properly and I was able to retrieve the files from one of my disks. I shutdown without umounting the drive and I kept the line in the fstab (still without the noauto option). When I turned on my computer this morning, when mounting the drives, it gave an error when looking at fd0 (stating something about invalid blocks when no floppy was inserted, and then something about an I/O error. I have never been able to mount the floppy afterwards. I removed the line in fstab and rebooted, then added the line and tried mounting the floppy, and I got that same error (the device seemed to be either already used or conflicted with something else). I can't remember what the error message was exactly, and I don't have my computer next to me, so I can only speculate or verify what others can think of. What have I missed here? I know shutting down without umounting may sometimes cause glitches, but I don't think they'd be that bad. Also, another thing that needs to be mentionned, during bootup with the line in the fstab (without the noauto) it blocks the boot at the floppy, and asks for the path to the nearest shell. I'm sure this is an easy problem to fix, but I don't even have a clue where to begin (more than I've already done).

By default, root cannot login remotely. You'll have to login as yourself, and use su to become root (you must be in group wheel to su to root).

The error is reported to be in the configure script (if you ``make patch'', you can edit work/k*/configure - line 4596), but the script, although clearly not doing what it was intended to, is syntactically correct.

You need to talk to your ISP and ask them why their ppp server died (you'll probably need to get them to enable some logging at their end before connecting). The only thing you can do from your side is ``enable lqr'' so that ppp knows when this has happened and hangs up or redials based on your ``set redial'' command. You can do other things like enabling async logging and looking for hdlc errors, but I'd bet you'll find that traffic is going out, but nothing's coming back ! You could also try ``disable vj'' and ``deny vj'', but I suspect it won't make a difference. > Thanks. > Nicholas Murphy > nicholas@deltanet.com -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

It depends on your hardware whether or not it detects more than 64MB of RAM. Based on the frequency of this question, I don't think it ever notices more than 64MB. (c; Run dmesg and see how much ram it detected (64MB in this case): real memory = 67108864 (65536K bytes) avail memory = 63782912 (62288K bytes) If it doesn't see all yours, edit your kernel config file (read the handbook if you've never messed with kernels before) and specify the amount of RAM you have (128MB in this example): options "MAXMEM=(128*1024)" Then recompile (again, read the handbook).

I have 128 MB of RAM but it seems that the system use only the first 64 MB. What's going on ? Due to the manner in which FreeBSD gets the memory size from the BIOS, it can only detect 16 bits worth of Kbytes in size (65535 Kbytes = 64MB). If you have more than 64MB, FreeBSD will only see the first 64MB. To work around this problem, you need to use the kernel option specified below. There is a way to get complete memory information from the BIOS, but we don't have room in the bootblocks to do it. Someday when lack of room in the bootblocks is fixed, we'll use the extended BIOS functions to get the full memory information...but for now we're stuck with the kernel option. options "MAXMEM=" Where n is your memory in Kilobytes. For a 128 MB machine, you'd want to use 131072 -- [ Christopher Raven [ E-mail: c.raven@ukonline.co.uk [ ICQ: 2254369 [ To err is human, to power is FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 11:50:11 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA00148 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 11:50:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from laker.net (jet.laker.net [205.245.74.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA00136 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 11:50:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sfriedri@laker.net) Received: from nt (digital-pbi-126.laker.net [208.0.233.26]) by laker.net (8.9.0/8.9.LAKERNET.NO-SPAM.SPAMMERS.AND.RELAYS.WILL.BE.TRACKED.AND.PROSECUTED.) with SMTP id OAA03964; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 14:49:21 -0400 Message-Id: <199810131849.OAA03964@laker.net> From: "Steve Friedrich" To: "Alain G.

Check the messages spit out during a boot (or use dmesg) and see if it knows about 128MB of memory. If yes, then you need do nothing. If no, then see MAXMEM in LINT config in /sys/i386/conf. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I have never tried using the boot disk to do an upgrade. What I did do was use CVSUP to do an upgrade. You can fetch source, make world, rebuild and install the kernel, and then reboot at an opportune time. If all goes well the downtime will be a few minutes during the reboot. I was leary the first time I did it, but it went without a hitch. The docs on the website are good. Before you use "upgrade" I recommend looking at CVS.

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 searched the FAQ, Handbook, mailing lists, etc, but have not found a good answer. If I missed the answer, I apologize, please point me to it. What hardware raid controllers are supported under FreeBSD, and under what versions? (I am mainly interested in the upcoming 2.2.8-RELEASE or 3.0-RELEASE, or current -STABLE, or -CURRENT branches). Also, if anyone has any input on success/failures with different card configurations, I would appreciate your input as well. I am planning on putting together a new cache server (running squid). I would like to use a hardware raid controller possibly dual channel - with fast disks (U2W SCSI) in a RAID 0 configuration for the cache data.

I was told the following by a vendor of FreeBSD-equipped systems; I don't know how true it is, and I may not be reporting the story quite accurately: That there are relatively few chipsets in relation to the many vendors of video cards, and so much of the difference hangs on proprietary features coded into the cards, etc. To fully exploit the capabilities of some cards may require information only obtainable by the signing of non-disclosure agreements, etc., and by accepting restrictions on the form of distribution. As a result, XFree86 drivers may not be able to realize the full potential of cards, while commercial drivers like AcceleratedX can. What difference this makes in practice, I would be interested to know. -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 13 13:59:50 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA22326 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 13:59:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from sinfonix.rz.tu-clausthal.de (sinfonix.rz.tu-clausthal.de [139.174.2.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA22280 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 13:59:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from inrk@rz.tu-clausthal.de) Received: (from inrk@localhost) by sinfonix.rz.tu-clausthal.de (8.9.0/8.9.0) id WAA07672; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 22:58:24 +0200 (MET DST) Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 22:58:24 +0200 (MET DST) From: Ronald Kuehn Message-Id: <199810132058.WAA07672@sinfonix.rz.tu-clausthal.de> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, root@ocsny.com Subject: Re: adaptec aic 7890 X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.0 CURRENT #117 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In freebsd-questions you write: > i'm trying to install freebsd and have an adaptec aic 7890 adaptor > the kernal probe is not recogizing this adaptor > what should i do aic7890 is supported in CAM.

I use Mhonarc to keep an HTML history and archive of one of my lists and would prefer these Spammers not gather my addresses. In researching alternatives, it looks like the best way to prevent robots like EmailSiphon is to use Apache's deny command in the config file. I believe the pertinent section (modified from Apache docs) would look something like this: BrowserMatch ^EmailSiphon go_away order allow,deny allow from all deny from env=go_away Is this the best solution or is there a better/easier way? Can I set this up for multiple BrowserMatch lines and keep the one directory entry section using the variable go_away? Thanks for any input.

With modern manufacturing methods being what they are, the chips are so integrated most video cards basically consist of just two chips (not counting the RAM and BIOS PROM): the graphics processor and the RAMDAC. There's not room for much customization since the graphics processor usually also contains the bus interface. The only thing XFree86 needs to know to work is the brand, model and revision of the graphics processor (so it can map in the video memory and use the accelerator functions), and the brand, model and revision of the RAMDAC (so it can program the resolution and color depth). The problem is with manufacturers refusing to release programming information for their new chips. Usually, the information always surfaces after a year or two, but free software lags behind because a) it can't afford to buy that information the moment the chip hits the market and b) distributing source code based on information under NDA is a violation of that NDA...

I keep getting an error message unable to connect to server mymachine.myisp.com ... 0x800ccc0e I can log onto my FreeBSD machine and use pine and read email that has been sent to user@mymachine.myisp.com I just can't log onto one of my local network machines run netscape mail or outlook and read mail sent to the same user. I can do everything else pretty much from my local machines like curising the inernet etc.... Just can't check or send mail using mymachine.myisp.com machine as the smtp and pop servers.

Are you running a POP server on mymachine? popper is not installed or enabled by default. You'll need to install the port and then enable it in /etc/inetd.conf (and restart inetd).

I am looking at trying to impliment some form of transparent proxy solution, and so far, all I can find is references to tproxy, which apparently requires IPFILTER (NOT IPFW) to be used. After reading up on ipfw, I notice that it too has "divert" options. Is it therefore possible to use ipfw to impliment a transparent proxy solution? Any and all pointers would be greatly appreciated.

How far off are they? Consider that file storage is allocated in fragments of between 512 and 2048 bytes. > Yes there are files that are .pop they don't have any bits in them. You mean they're empty? OK. > Can I increase the /var/mail by symlinking to a directory (adding one called > mail) in the /user directory? If so how do I go about doing that. It's difficult to do it with a symlink alone, since that would effectively rename the directory. You can move everything to a different file system and have symlink pointing to the new location; in fact, that's what I do. This is one reason why I recommend to have only one file system on a disk.

You might have spent "a hour on dozens of web pages concerning FREEBSD," but apparently one of them wasn't http://www.freebsd.org. If you'd looked there you'd have seen, in big letters, the words "Easy to install." The last sentence of the paragraph below that says, "All you need is a single 1.44MB boot floppy and these directions." You follow the directions that this link leads you to, and you find that it is indeed easy--very, very easy--to install.

There sure is; FreeBSD does it automatically. If you look in your /etc/passwd file, you'll see that any accounts you create will have a password of *, which translates to an un-decryptable password. The "real" encrypted files are stored in a root-readable-only file called /etc/master.passwd. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

I find that argument a bit difficult to swallow, given that Lose/95 seems to have zero problems seeing the PCMCIA slots, while FreeBSD, even with PAO, can see them perhaps 10% of the time. If it's broken hardware, how come the crap garbageware from Redmond can handle it?

(I am mainly interested in the upcoming 2.2.8-RELEASE or > 3.0-RELEASE, or current -STABLE, or -CURRENT branches). This is becoming a FAQ. :-) If you're looking for a host-based RAID controller, then to the best of my knowledge only those manufactured by DPT are supported (http://www.dpt.com/). The drivers have been integrated since 2.2.6-R (or was it only 2.2.7-R?). If you're going to go the SCSI-to-SCSI RAID route, you have more options. > Also, if anyone has any input on success/failures with different card > configurations, I would appreciate your input as well. Having great success with DPT cards, though there was an initial learning curve.

IMAP can be the solution to many problems and headaches, if correctly implemented. POP was a curiously incomplete protocol - more a kludge than anything else. Have a look at: http://www.imap.org/ To the best of my knowledge, none of the current batch of Windows mail clients support IMAP correctly/completely.

Have a look at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook133.html Think on a component level, not a machine level. Almost any "generic" PC that you build up should work. The problem with (esp. Compaq) pre-configured servers is that they often use propriatary, non-standard NICs and/or SCSI host adapters. In general, most things should work, except maybe very new products.

Are you pinging from your ppp connection? If so remember the 10.x.x.x network is reserved for private use and if your default route which is your gateway of x.x.107.206 is on another subnet in this case I am guessing is a public block and a whole other subnet you wont get any routing, your default gateway would have to be configured for something in the 10.2.5.x block, and then maybe aliasing that block to your ether card doing some sort of NAT translating. Right now your ppp connection really doesnt have anyway of finding the x.x.107.206 network. Now on the other hand if you tried pinging locally from the machine it should work because your ethernet card has a route out. Forgive me if I happened to answer this wrong, just trying to help.

If you're not sure, make a dos bootdisk with CD-rom support enabled. Format the C drive and reboot from the disk. After that, insert the freebsd cdrom. There is a file named fbsdboot.exe which would boot you to freebsd if you run it. After that, everything is pretty much menu-based. If fbsdboot.exe doesn't work, you'll have to create a freebsd boot floppy to take you to the installation menu. Everything is documented in great detail. Try http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html and you'll find everything you need. Be well!

This is one reason why I recommend to have > only one file system on a disk. Could you please explain this? I ask because I recently purchased a couple of systems from a supplier who installed FreeBSD for us. Being a beginner, I accepted his recommendation (see below), which seems to go to the other extreme. I take it that the use of s1c in the original scheme is an oversight, and that you can't do that? But if you look at the final allocation of disk 1 below now, there are 7 partitions used and cylinders still unallocated. How can those cylinders be allocated now? The other thing I don't understand about this setup is that it is running CAM (2.2.7-STABLE + CAM), but the SCSI disks turn up in disklabel as sd* rather than da*. Does this matter? It seems you can refer to the disks as both sd* and da* when you do disklabel -r, etc. (Sorry for the verbose listings.) His original recommendation was as follows (the disks are 4.5GB U2W SCSI): --------------------------------------------------------------------------- As far as the install goes, the only info I'd want would be partitioning info. Here is what I'd recommend, but feel free to tell me where to go if it won't suit your needs: Disk1: s1a / 200 MB will include /etc /stand /root, etc s1b swap 128 MB need at least as much swap as RAM s1c /usr 200 MB most of /usr will be below... s1d,na /usr/src 250 MB system source code (kernel + apps) s1e,na /usr/ports 300 MB Ports + room for src, compiles s1f /tmp 300 MB s1g /var 200 MB for mail, news, logs, etc. s1h ~3000 MB /home, /public_html, ??? Disk2: s1a swap 128 MB using 2 disks for swap = 2x speed s1b /usr/X11R6 300 MB X11 libs, exec, man, bin s1c /usr/local 700 MB All apps from ports, pkg, & you s1d /usr/obj 350 MB object files from make world ~3000 MB ??? The above setup is the optimal for FreeBSD, but perhaps not the optimal for administration. If these machines get hit hard and need really good IO, above is the way to go. Splitting data across disks improves perfomance (esp. /usr/src and /usr/obj, and different swaps). Having /usr/ports, /usr/src, and /usr/obj on their own partition imporves anything that searches for files, since you can unmount these directories when not used (almost always!) and eliminate almost 100,000 files from the tree. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- As installed, it became: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/da0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/da1s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/da0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/da0s1h /tmp ufs rw 2 2 /dev/da0s1e /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/da1s1e /usr/obj ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 /dev/da0s1g /usr/ports ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 /dev/da0s1f /usr/src ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 /dev/da0s1d /var ufs rw 2 2 /dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 2 2 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- # /dev/rda0c: type: SCSI disk: sd0s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 553 sectors/unit: 8888924 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 409600 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 25*) b: 524288 409600 swap # (Cyl. 25*- 58*) c: 8888924 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 553*) d: 409600 5849088 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 364*- 389*) e: 3072000 933888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 58*- 249*) f: 512000 4005888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 249*- 281*) g: 716800 4517888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 281*- 325*) h: 614400 5234688 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 325*- 364*) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 14 03:59:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA10246 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 03:59:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from reality.cse.fau.edu (reality.cse.fau.edu [131.91.80.40]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA10241 for ; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 03:59:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from moise@bigfoot.com) Received: from moise (pbsurf5.pbc.adelphia.net [24.48.20.5]) by reality.cse.fau.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id GAA00834; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 06:58:51 -0400 (EDT) From: "Moise Pierre-Louis" To: Cc: Subject: BSD Directory Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1998 06:59:48 -0400 Message-ID: <000001bdf761$c2892c60$05143018@moise.pbc.adelphia.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0001_01BDF740.3B778C60" X-Priority: 1 (Highest) X-MSMail-Priority: High X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 Importance: High X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.0 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0001_01BDF740.3B778C60 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, I have been reading on FreeBSD and plan to install it on my computer.

I have been advised that, as a win98 machine at least, adding more RAM than 64MB will see a performance hit in the order of 10% as the chipset cannot cache more than 64MB. The cpu is an Intel P166MMX The board can take up to 256MB My questions: Will I see this performance hit in FreeBSD? i.e. is this issue solely chipset specific? Does anyone else here run more than 64MB on a 440tx chipset?

I don't know how much increasing MAXUSERS slows the system down, but anyway... Look in /sys/conf/param.c, I think: #define NPROC (20 + 16 * MAXUSERS) #define MAXFILES (NPROC*2) (where MAXUSERS is taken from your kernel config.) I can't see anything stopping you from hardcoding those, eg #define NPROC 100 #define MAXFILES 5000 or whatever you may want. Whether that's a good idea or not, someone else who knows more about FreeBSD than I do can comment if they wish. Whether it will even work I don't know ... :-) -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 14 05:04:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA15922 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 05:04:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA15891 for ; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 05:04:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from ben by scientia.demon.co.uk with local (Exim 2.05 #3) id 0zTLYd-00066o-00; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 08:41:19 +0100 Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1998 08:41:19 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Evren Yurtesen Cc: Doug White , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: pwd.db?

You can configure pine to use reply-to: (well, you can with 3.96 anyway).

When you build a new kernel you need to reactivate the PnP configuration by booting with "-c" and setting the pnp options for your card. You'll need the following in your kernel for this to work: options USERCONFIG # Boot -c editor controller pnp0 # Enable PnP support in the kernel These changes are then stored in the kernel (after successfull boot [as this is done in /etc/rc with "dset -q"]) so that you dont need to redo it on subsequent boots. I got annoyed by this and created a /kernel.config file to do it on every boot so I didn't have to bother when I built a new kernel. You will also need the following option in your kernel for this to work: options USERCONFIG_BOOT # Imply -c and parse info area Note that if /kernel.config doesn't exist it wont boot without you choosing an option from the menu that comes up... so you probably want to copy /kernel.config to /kernel.old.config so you can boot /kernel.old too without seeing this menu. Also note that your kernel will be written to on every boot!! This may not be what you want as there may be a greater chance of loosing your kernel. Here's my /kernel.config (for a Creative Labs PnP Sound Blaster 16 with a Vibra16C chip): localhost: {17} cat /kernel.config USERCONFIG pnp 1 0 os enable irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 quit localhost: {18} I'm guess that you were able to boot the other time as you may have just booted another OS (Win95 ?) which has activated the card ?? - does your machine have FreeBSD and another OS on it ?

After rebuilding the kernel with #define cy0 and rebooting, dmesg reports: cy0 rev 1 int a irq 9 on pci0:8:0 cy0: no ports found! and of course, trying to use cuac00 reports device not configured. However, when I boot with a DOS 7.0 floppy and use the CYCTEST.EXE from Cyclades the board works just fine. Does anyone have information on how I can get FreeBSD to work with this card? Is there a more advanced cy.c driver out there? Have the constants for the CD1400 changed? If there is a more appropriate list to post this message to, please let me know. Thank-you, Michael Boers Datacomp Appraisal Services Driver info: Stock 2.2.7 i386/isa/cy.c 1.41.2.3 Cyclades 2.2.6 i386/isa/cy/c 1.41.3.1 What I have tried: I have rearranged the order in which the irq's are assigned to stay away from irq 9. No change. I have set the base address with the CYCTEST program from Y < 1 MB to Y > 1 MB. No Change. I have downloaded the replacement cy.c and cyreg.h from ftp.cyclades.com/pub/cyclades/cyclom-y/freebsd/2.2.6/ and recompiled the kernel. No change. GORY DETAILS! I have added printf's to cy_pci.c and cy.c to show variable contents during startup: cy0 rev 1 int a irq 9 on pci0:8:0 cy_pci.c cy_attach() config_id.cfg1 = 80004000 cy_pci.c cy_attach() unit = 0 cy_pci.c cy_attach() ioport = 7c80 cy_pci.c cy_attach() paddr = dc000 cy_pci.c cy_attach vaddr() = f4d18000 cy.c cyattach_common() cy_iobase = f4d18000 cy.c cyattach_common() cy_align = 1 cy.c cyattach_common() adapter = 0 cy.c cy_units() cy_iobase = f4d18000 cy.c cy_units() cy_align = 1 cy.c cy_units() iobase = f4d18000 cy.c cy_units() i (after wait/ready loop) = a cy.c cy_units() firmware_version = ff cy0: no ports found! The iobase 0xdc000 mostly matches the iobase reported by CYCTEST DC002h. The ioport 0x7c80 is also close to the Runtime Regs Addr reported by CYCTEST 00007C81h. I can only guess as to whether the virutal address is correct. My guess is that the problem is either in the wait ready loop (notice that i = 0xa which means it never got the values it was expecting) or it is in the firmware query which always responses with 0xff which is not correct (it should be 0x48).

Then did a fresh install of 2.2.7. The install went fine. However when the system boots it takes *forever* to read the bootstrap files and the kernel. I checked the faqs and found two things that might apply: - There are disk geometry issues I need to look into - The root partition must be less in the first 504mb. When I labelled the disk I made root 150mb and made it the first partition so I think the second one shouldn't be a problem. Two other things concern me: - This is an old PC with an IDE not E IDE controller while the disk is E IDE. Salesman said this shouldn't be an issue. (-: - The BIOS on this system is six years old. I think it suffers from the old 504mb limit issue. Are there any solutions to this if it is a problem?

I'm running an el-cheapo Pentium board (don't know the manufacturer, but doubt that it's a major name) with 4 32 MB SIMMs, and a stock build of 3.0-SNAP recognizes all 128 MB.

Has anyone tried out Metro-x and accelerated-x and how do they stack up against each other. Is it even worth buying a commercial x-server or should I stay with Xfree86. I'm using Metro-X right now, and I'm very pleased with it. It is really easy to set up compared to the servers that come with XFree86. You have to have all the other binaries that come with XFree86 though as a base to start from. The server is just the server.

If, perhaps, your motherboard does not support large hard drives you may need to reboot with the floppy that came with your drive (or download it from WD) and turn off the "floppy-protect" feature (or something like that). It appears to be a feature they have in their boot manager for protecting the data on the hard drive if you boot off a DOS floppy without first loading their boot manager that patches the BIOS for large disk incompatibility.

If you're running the version of ppp that comes with FreeBSD-2.2.5, it's a known problem (see the ERRATA.TXT file on www.FreeBSD.org). You can either upgrade your version of FreeBSD (it was fixed before 2.2.6 was released) or you could upgrade your version of ppp via http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html If you upgrade ppp, make sure you glance through the README.changes file. You should probably re-browse the man page too as a lot of things have changed (but not too much WRT your configuration). > Thanks in advance. > > Mukti A.

Why don't you just set up sendmail on your host so that it forwards mail with unknown (to it) destinations to your gateway? You should be able to just set up a smart host (DS macro, IIRC) for this.

It loooks like you haven't got: /usr/X11R6/bin/X which is a symbolic link to the X server for your machine. It's set up after when you set up X11. The other messages are saying that some process (likely your window manager) couldn't find a server. That's because one wasn't running because of the first problem. It looks like you don't actually have X11 running.

It looks to me as if you haven't started X yet. Don't start xterm, start 'startx' or 'xinit'. If you haven't set up a window manager, the screen will look a bit funny, but it *will* give you an xterm for free. Look at the man pages X(1), startx(1), and xinit(1). You will also need to choose a window manager--see ctwm(1), fvwm(1), twm(1), and fvwm95-2(1). Some of these may be in the ports collection.

The card is an EigerCom 28.8 kbps V.34 Fax/Modem card (FM288LK, MD288), and works fine under Windoze 95. I am currently running FreeBSD 2.2.6. Here are my questions: 0) will this work at all? 1) what kernel configuration options are necessary? Ones that appear to be relevant are: device ze0 ... device zp0 ... controller card0 device pcic0 device pcic1 2) what /dev devices are necessary? I.e., what MAKEDEV's do I need to do? 3) under, say, kermit or user ppp, what device do I specify as my LINE? 4) what other questions should I have asked? ;-) 5) what are the answers to those questions? ;-) ;-) Thanks very much in advance for any help.

I installed anything that seemed relevant for X (installing only the necessary servers, i.e. the SVGA, ATI and one last one, plus KDE for the windowmanager). When doing the setup of XFree86 (using the GUI), at the end, when it attempts starting the server, all I get is a blank screen and nothing more. The error message I get from the setup program (after a CTRL-ALT- BACKSPC) is that the server is running on an other (or an invalid) virtual terminal. When attempting to run it using startx (I have a .xinint file in my home dir containing startkde) I still get the same result. I have installed qt-1.33, but I also get strange errors (PID could not get read, and xterm: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server ":0.0". I usually wait about a minute (i.e. not just a few seconds) before I shut down the server with the keystrokes. Any idea where I can get a more complete list of error messages, or what I can do to fix this problem? It's quite a strange problem from a fresh install. All commandline stuff works fine (or at least seems to from the limited amount of things I've tried). Thanks for your help!

This isn't really a problem except that I have a few other machines that I run behind a FreeBSD firewall and nat. Will natd properly handle the dhcp assigned addresses (possibly more than one address on the Interface), and will it react properly to lease expiries? The -n and -dynamic options to natd lead me to believe it will, but I would like someone to give me a warm fuzzy feeling before I take down my existing network connection. One other concern is that I have two applications running behind nat that are udp based. In that past I have hard coded the configs, but how will this work with dynamic addresses? Does anyone have any comments, or example configs that they could offer. Thanks in advance.

Options may be either binary, in which case it is only significant to see whether they are set or not; or string, in which case the actual value is of interest. The binary options include the following: (NOTE: OPTIONS MAY BE BINARY OR STRING THESE ARE BINARY AND EXIST IN MAILRC FILES AND FUNCTION FINE) append Causes messages saved in mbox to be appended to the end rather than prepended. This should always be set (preferably in one of the system-wide mail.rc files). ask Causes mail to prompt you for the subject of each message you send. If you respond with simply a newline, no subject field will be sent. askcc Causes you to be prompted for additional carbon copy recipients at the end of each message. Responding with a newline indicates your satisfaction with the current list. . . . (THESE ARE STRING OPTIONS THAT CAN BE PLACED IN A MAILRC FILE TOO, FROM THE WAY IT READS. ALSO, "set REPLYTO=someone@somewhere.com" DOESN'T GENERATE AN ERROR IN .MAILRC, WHILE EXPORT COMMANDS CAUSE ERRORS??? REVIEWING, I THOUGHT MAYBE THE READER SHOULD INTUIT THAT CAPITALIZED VARIABLES ARE ONLY FOR ENV VARIABLES OUTSIDE A MAILRC FILE, BUT THEN AGAIN, SAYING "set MBOX=mail/Inbox" WORKS FINE INSIDE /etc/mail.rc. SO WHAT GIVES? ) Option String Values EDITOR Pathname of the text editor to use in the edit command and ~e escape. If not defined, then a default editor is used. LISTER Pathname of the directory lister to use in the folders com- mand. Default is /bin/ls. PAGER Pathname of the program to use in the more command or when crt variable is set. The default paginator more(1) is used if this option is not defined. REPLYTO If set, will be used to initialize the Reply-To field for outgoing messages. . . . > Have you checked to see if the message has a Reply-To: header? i want any email program to be able to say REPLY-TO-SENDER and have a previously specified email address show up in the replying messages "To:" field. and that only seems to work with many web based email accounts if the mailed message has the new address in the "From:" field. the point is, From: ALWAYS works, it looks nicer in the sendee's email, and it's not available to set in BSD Mail. furthermore, you are forced to export it in a shell before using Mail, and that sucks. you should be able to set it in a .mailrc file so you don't have the variable hanging around in the environment all the time when you only use Mail on a rare occasion. also, when i use Mail from a machine connected to a ppp aliased server, emails bomb when the remote server tries to verify the hostname of my client inside a private network (if it is not the same as the server hostname - ie, a real hostname). Pine does not cause this to happen, even though Mail and Pine both use the clients local SMTP server to send mail. ??? > Whenever I reply to a message that has a Reply-To: header, mail honors > that specification -- and I've been using BSD "mail" (in various > incarnations) as my MUA of choice since 1986. yes it does - if you "export REPLYTO=someone@somewhere.com" in your shell before running Mail. why don't i have to say "export MBOX=mail/Inbox" ??? REPLYTO and MBOX are in the same category in the manpage ... ???

Easy for you to say :) Last time I tried to CONFIG Sendmail to do this I got nowhere. 5 days of reading man pages and web sites and email with a VERY nice user who tried to help with it. Still no luck. Sorry I am not a Sendmail guru and have no idea what the CONFIG files tags do or what to change. I have tried and failed miserably. Thus the reason I asked about SLRN. David L.

I know I need to make this entry in my GENERIC file: "device bktr0" I also know I need to do a MAKEDEV. Question: what value do I specify? i.e., is this correct? # sh MAKEDEV bktr0 Generally speaking, does one use the same device value in the GENERIC file as on the MAKEDEV line (e.g., bktr0)? I also have an AW35 Pro Audio card (someone else did the installation). I was told to make this entry in GENERIC: device pcm0 at isa? port? tty irq 5 drq 1 flags \ 0x15 vector pcmintr If this is correct, then do I do: # sh MAKEDEV pcm0 ?? The Boca I/0650 card was installed. I assume this gives me serial ports COM1 - COM4. If this is true, and my entries in GENERIC are: device sio0 at isa? port "IO_CM I mean: device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 vector siointr device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 vector siointr These look good or no? For COM3 and COM4, I presently have: device sio2 at isa? disable port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 vector siointr device sio3 at isa? disable port "IO_COM4" tty irq 9 vector siointr Should these entries be changed? To what?

I'd install, reboot, and be presented with the installation program again, for reasons unkown. I repeated the entire installation a couple of times with the same result. Finally, when I had pulled all but three hairs from my head, I realized that this computer had one of those newfangled BIOSes that allowed the computer to boot from the CD. Since I had left the Redhat CD in the drive, that's just what it did. D'oh! This probably isn't your problem, but I point it out just in case.

The new device node names are da ("direct access") for disk and sa ("serial access") for tapes. There's been a certain resistance to the new names in -hackers, but the good thing is that a SCSI disk by any other name would access the same. You should ensure that you have the da and sa nodes in /dev, but it doesn't really do any harm to refer to them as sd. > His original recommendation was as follows (the disks are 4.5GB U2W SCSI): > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > As far as the install goes, the only info I'd want would be partitioning > info.

He's trying to guess future usage. For example, he's allocated 250 MB for /usr/obj, which will leave about 220 MB for files. My /usr/src has 253 MB now, so it would already have overflowed.

Hmmm. You can do all sorts of things. In a multi-user environment you shouldn't be umounting file systems for the benefit of one user. The flaw with having separate file systems for /usr/src, /usr/obj and /usr/ports is that the sizes of these hierarchies are pretty constant anyway; you gain no security by limiting their size, and you gain the insecurity of having to completely repartition the disk if your original estimates turn out to be wrong. > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > As installed, it became: > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# > /dev/da0s1b none swap sw 0 0 > /dev/da1s1b none swap sw 0 0 > /dev/da0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 > /dev/da0s1h /tmp ufs rw 2 2 > /dev/da0s1e /usr ufs rw 2 2 > /dev/da1s1e /usr/obj ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 > /dev/da0s1g /usr/ports ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 > /dev/da0s1f /usr/src ufs rw,noauto,async,noatime 2 2 > /dev/da0s1d /var ufs rw 2 2 > /dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 2 2 > proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > ... > 8 partitions: > # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] > a: 409600 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 25*) > b: 524288 409600 swap # (Cyl. 25*- 58*) > c: 8888924 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 553*) > d: 409600 5849088 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 364*- 389*) > e: 3072000 933888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 58*- 249*) > f: 512000 4005888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 249*- 281*) > g: 716800 4517888 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 281*- 325*) > h: 614400 5234688 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 325*- 364*) > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The only valid reasons for more than one partition on a drive are: 1. Security. If you screw up a file system, you usually don't screw up the others. This happens very seldom nowadays, however. 2. To limit the size of the hierarchies, so that one user can't monopolize things. For that we use quotas, which can be changed as requirements change. If you really do need extensibility, take a look at Vinum (http://www.lemis.com/vinum.html). > -- > Graeme Tait - Echidna That's an interesting name from time zone -7.

The easiest way is to leave support for both processors in the kernel, and see what the kernel thinks. Unless this processor is *very* cheap, it's not worth changing. You may find it cheaper to buy, say, a used P5/66 board.

I have discovered that when I mount the root filesystem from the secondary drive and the /var and /usr filesystems from the primary drive Eudora (when running on a workstation) complains that it can't open the temp file.

The result appeared to be that all netscape versions contain the strong crypto code which is being enabled with the code above. It changes some occurences of "false" to "true" and some " 512" to "2048". If you got enough RAM, do the hexdump -C thing and the diff and you will see it. At least it works when looking at https://www.fortify.net/cgi-bin/ssl and https://mozilla-crypto.ssleay.org/cryptocheck.php after the patch. BTW, is there something like a "general purpose file editor" for FreeBSD? I would like to see something as I used to have in my Atari ST and DOS days... It would be enough to have something which has the same appearance of hexdump -C but with search, replace and primitive editing functionality. > > Thanks, > > Doug -Andre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 14 22:53:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA07959 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 22:53:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from home.acesales.com (home.acesales.com [206.119.133.156]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA07954 for ; Wed, 14 Oct 1998 22:53:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from acesales@acesales.com) Received: from acesales.com (pentium.acesales.com [192.168.9.71]) by home.acesales.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id BAA04419 for ; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 01:48:20 -0400 Message-ID: <36258D56.4EF373C6@acesales.com> Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1998 01:51:18 -0400 From: "Arthur S.

I am trying to redirect a port on the ipfw server to another web server for requests. When I setup divert rules manually and then do an "ipfw list" the rules are there but then when I try to http://ipfw-machine:80 it won't redirect to the machine setup in the divert rules. Instead it just returns the request of port 80 for the local ipfw machine. What am I doing wrong? I am running 2.2.6 The only way I can currently do what I want with port 80 is redirecting using "socket" in my /etc/inetd.conf file. I really need to do this through "ipfw divert" for many other ports that will change often. Nothing is logging as well so I assume that is part of the problem with divert and logging showing up disabled on boot. Even though "log" and "divert" options show up during a list command they seem to be inactive. Is there a switch I am not aware of or am I inserting it in the wrong part of my kernel config? I started my options IPFIREWALL right after maxusers 250 Thanks in advance for your response.

I have checked out the sources for -Stable using 'cvs co -rRELENG_2_2 src'. All of the "normal" stuff works, the RELENG_2_2 tag gets recorded in each directory, etc. According to my understanding of the cvs man page, I ought to be able to do 'cvs diff -rHEAD' in a given directory and have it show me the differences between the -Stable and -Current branches. However, it produces no output at all except, "cvs diff: Diffing ." In some directories, if I do 'cvs diff -r RELENG_2_2 -r HEAD' I get the desired output, but if I go to some directories (like src/usr.bin/w) even that produces no output, however, if I check the log and diff the version I have checked out against the head of the branch file by file, I see actual differences. Also, if I make changes in the files in one directory and run 'cvs diff' I see the changes against the version I have checked out. So the question is, am I misunderstanding the syntax of the command, or otherwise doing something odd or wrong? I feel like I have a pretty good grip on cvs, and the fact that some things work in some directories but not others lead me to believe that there might be something odd happening, but I'm not sure what. Any help appreciated, Doug -- *** Chief Operations Officer, DALnet IRC network *** Go PADRES!

I have previously used redhat (this is probably a dangerous admission to make on this group!!) and I know that it can only see fat16 on internal partitions, but it would be ok to use smb to see nt folders (i hope this is ok!). so acouple of questions: will Nt be able to read files stored on the bsd box and vice versa will macs be able to do the same (particularly g3's) will an nt outlook server be able to run in parallel we also want to have an automatic dat backup, can anyone forsee any problems/software we need etc. or is it easier for an nt box to do this ? and then hardware compatibility: I shall probably have the following spec: PII 450 or 350 adaptec 2940 UW SCSI controller 9 Gig Fast wide SCSI Hard drive 100 Mb/s 3com network card S3 Virge Graphics card Connected to an optic line via a 3com router I'm really sorry this post is so long. and thanks alot in advance. alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Oct 15 05:26:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA14316 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 05:26:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id FAA14305 for ; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 05:26:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0zTmSx-0004yu-00; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 14:25:15 +0200 Message-ID: <19981015142515.A19135@cityip.co.za> Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1998 14:25:15 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: Alex Knowles , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: newbie setup Mail-Followup-To: Alex Knowles , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <615CAC0140CED111AF1500805FEDDB8A094A45@ns.new-mediacom.co.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <615CAC0140CED111AF1500805FEDDB8A094A45@ns.new-mediacom.co.uk>; from Alex Knowles on Thu, Oct 15, 1998 at 12:34:04PM +0100 X-PGP: ftp://ftp.cityip.co.za/users/wjv/pubkey.asc Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 15 Oct 1998 at 12:34 SAT, Alex Knowles wrote: > > Hi first post etc etc I hope this is to the right place!

Personally, I prefer to let NT do what it was designed to do, and be a print/file server to Microsoft clients. Part of the reason for this is that the management tools on NT can be explained to an advanced Windows user, and I don't have to mess with it myself all the time. On the other hand, Samba provides a highly configurable file service for Microsoft clients, and according to many reports it's more resource-efficient. Personally, I prefer to use Samba's tools to do trouble shooting on NetBEUI networks. > Can anyone forsee any problems with this plan? the office uses nt and > mac.

And yes, you can access NT shares (and even mount them) using Samba's toolset. > will Nt be able to read files stored on the bsd box and vice versa Yup. > will macs be able to do the same (particularly g3's) I'll leave that to someone else.

I would strongly recommend you stick a DAT (or other tape) drive directly in the FreeBSD box itself for backup purposes. It's probably advisable to let the BSD and NT boxes each do their own backups on their own drives. > and then hardware compatibility: > I shall probably have the following spec: > PII 450 or 350 > adaptec 2940 UW SCSI controller > 9 Gig Fast wide SCSI Hard drive > 100 Mb/s 3com network card > S3 Virge Graphics card Probably overkill, esp. that processor. :-) But if you can afford it, hell, go for it... > Connected to an optic line via a 3com router Ugh, I hate those 3Com routers. :-) > I'm really sorry this post is so long. > and thanks alot in advance.

I am trying to install on a scsi drive that had Linux on it and is now wiped clean. Win95 lives on on a 3G ide drive. I had planned to install booteasy into the mbr here, as I did Linux, and use System Commander to boot it. During the install process, the program tries to get me to partition my ide drive and won't let me back up and select the scsi. It was there before during the "fdisk" portion. The "label" screen just shows me wd0 and that's it. It seems to be confused after the selection of putting the boot manager into the first drive. By the way, it install booteasy for me anyway, even without a commit. No problem, just reinstalled System Commander. If I let it install, it appears that it will clobber ide drive and swallow windows whole. The ide is western digital. The scsi is Quantum Atlas running off of an Ataptec 2940. Is the install buggy, or am I doing something wrong?

Originally it had a 4gig Seagate Barracuda drive (Fast/Wide Scsi) with an older Adaptec 2940 controller. I recently purchased a newer Adaptec Ultra Scsi controller and a 9gig Seagate Medalist HD. After replacing the old with the new controller and installing the drive I'm able to boot from the FBSD CD but get hung at the point where the kernel 'waits for the scsi devices to settle'. After a few minutes I get 'aha0: board not responding, cmd fail...'. I've used the Adaptec on-board utility to check the scsi id's and to verify the drive. It all checks out. Any suggestions?

If you are changing /etc/fstab on the primary drive to mount /var and /usr from the secondary it should work fine, as long as /var and /usr really are populated correctly on the secondary. How'd you make the original image and which tool are you using for the updates?

When you're booting from the FreeBSD install floppy, did you make sure to enable support for your SCSI Controller? When you boot from it, be sure to choose "Start kernel configuration in full-screen visual mode", and then remove unneeded drivers until the number of conflicts at the top of your screen drops down to 0. You'll want to remove everything except for the two "IDE/ESDI/MFM disk controller"'s (and whatever else you may have) under "Storage" in the "Active Drivers" section. The SCSI controllers listed there are only for ISA SCSI controllers, and your 2940 is PCI. If you have others enabled, they might conflict and cause your 2940 not to be detected. You'll also want to be sure to remove any inappropriate network drivers, input devices, and communications devices, as these can also lead to conflicts. Once you're not showing any conflicts, Save and Exit and your 2940 should be detected. And once that's detected, you should be able to see your SCSI hard drive.

I remember this from a couple of weeks (maybe a month) ago. The problem is with SCAM support, if I remember correctly. Disable SCAM, check that you have proper termination, check again, now make sure that termination is right (not just, this has always worked), lastly, check termination, then give it a try. If that doesn't work, check the archives for this mailing list. I didn't have this problem as my 2940 is a bit older too. I remember seeing that one guy downgraded the bios on the 2940, but it turned out not to be needed. Then check your termination. The 2940 is pretty fussy about it (unlike the old 1542B).

It's kinda backwards in the setup menu, but I believe you have to partition first, *then* use the label editor to set up the mount points, etc. > Is it possible that the boot.flp on FreeBSD website an old, buggy one? > Maybe I need to pop for the cd?

FreeBSD does not offer any service that configures newly installed ports. This is an impossible task (1,500 ports) and one that is better left to the developer of the port in question. The Apache group has excellent documentation that is on the web and that comes with the port.

I'm linking two FreeBSD machines together; the server is 2.2.6, the client is 2.2.7. My /etc/exports is as follows: /usr/www -maproot=root 131.215.86.106 /home -maproot=root 131.215.86.106 When I send a HUP to the mountd process, it seems to only read the *first* entry in the file; I can mount /usr/www but can't mount /home, for instance, and showmount -e gives the following: {root:45} showmount -e Exports list on localhost: /usr/www 131.215.86.106 If I reverse the order of the two lines in /etc/exports, it will enable /home but not /usr/www. I can enable one, mount it, then switch them around and enable the other, so I can mount both that way, but that seems to destabilize my system; I've had several system-wide lockups and crashes on the client machine when doing that. Oh, and if I put -alldirs into one of the /etc/exports entries, it will ignore that one as though I'd commented it out. Does anyone have any insight on this? Thanks!

Assuming sendmail is logging enough info, it should probably tell you what'd going on. Two common problems with setting up vacation: incorrect permission/ownership on the .forward and the fact that vacation uses 'real' UID instead of effective UID to generate the forwards. So if you're setting up a vacation for user blarg and su to root and then to blarg, vacation will write the .forward to send the mail to your UID, not blarg's. -j To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Oct 15 12:52:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA19428 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 12:52:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from d132-h017.rh.rit.edu (d132-h017.rh.rit.edu [129.21.132.145]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA19419 for ; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 12:52:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from vega@d132-h017.rh.rit.edu) Received: from localhost (vega@localhost) by d132-h017.rh.rit.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA03529; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 15:47:00 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from vega@d132-h017.rh.rit.edu) Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1998 15:46:59 -0400 (EDT) From: VEGA To: Kyky Effe cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: I lost the second CD of FreeBSD 2.2.7 In-Reply-To: <19981015185903.21447.rocketmail@send104.yahoomail.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 Thu, 15 Oct 1998, Kyky Effe wrote: > I lost the second CD of the FreeBSD 2.2.7 > Where can I get the copy of it! > Is it important for me to have it? > I am beginner in the FreeBSD OS so I want it really bad > I just bought copule weeks ago but my roommate > misplace it. > > Please help me !!! > 0 <---- thats how many times i have used my second CD, although maybe someone else has. unless you run into odd circumstances you most lilely wont need it To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Oct 15 12:56:01 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA19824 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 12:56:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.netacc.net (mail.netacc.net [206.28.142.35]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA19799 for ; Thu, 15 Oct 1998 12:55:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bob@netacc.net) Received: (qmail 29912 invoked from network); 15 Oct 1998 15:55:40 -0400 Received: from net3.netacc.net (qmailr@206.28.142.3) by mail.netacc.net with SMTP; 15 Oct 1998 15:55:40 -0400 Received: (qmail 19722 invoked by uid 16126); 15 Oct 1998 15:55:40 -0400 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 15 Oct 1998 15:55:40 -0400 Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1998 15:55:40 -0400 (EDT) From: Bob Bridgham To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Compilation Problem 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 Question, I installed gcc v2.8.1, then I tried to recompile the kernel on our new machine, and this is what I get : plasma# make loading kernel procfs_vnops.o: Undefined symbol `___cmpdi2' referenced from text segment nfs_bio.o: Undefined symbol `___cmpdi2' referenced from text segment nfs_subs.o: Undefined symbol `___cmpdi2' referenced from text segment ffs_vnops.o: Undefined symbol `___cmpdi2' referenced from text segment plasma# uname -a FreeBSD plasma.netacc.net 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Wed Jul 22 08: 48:29 GMT 1998 root@builder.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 I have no clue why I get these messages, I know how to compile programs pretty well and have developed before, but I have no clue what ___cmpdi2 is, I do not see it refrenced in /usr/src/sys/nfs/* or in /usr/src/sys/miscfs/procfs Very confused.

Thanks, Paul, for that very valuable additional information. Fortunately for all of us, these things don't happen very often. Although it can be fairly disruptive when they do, I also try to treat them as an educational experience so I'm better prepared to handle the next such occurrence when it arises. *SO*, the point being that I'm very interested in all these tidbits even though they may not relate specifically to the current disaster, they may well relate to the next.

To follow up, I experimented by checking out some sources using 'cvs co -rHEAD src/usr.bin/mail' and then tried 'cvs diff -rRELENG_2_2' and all worked as advertised. This leads me to believe that something odd is happening with the HEAD tag from the perspective of a checked out -Stable tree. Doug -- *** Chief Operations Officer, DALnet IRC network *** Go PADRES!

The developers already have systems setup and configured perfectly; they have no need for resizing partitions because they already know what sizes they need for what they do. Us less experienced users, however, have no clue. We either take the defaults or strike out on our own, and with disappointing regularity, neither path quite fits our needs. So the users are correct to ask for a tool to help ease the transition to FreeBSD. Of course, the developers know how hard it would be to code something like this, while the users can but think, "MSDOS has partition resizers, even in shareware, surely FreeBSD can compete here too." We have no concept of the differences between the filesystems, nor the inherent difficulty that this project may present, given the vastly more complicated FS. So the developers are correct to maintain that such a tool is unfeasible, given the challenge it presents, their time restraints, and the other priorities that beset them. But don't say interest is low.

I have no idea what a 'CS4236' card is but what you need to do if it's Sound Blaster compatible is to get into userconfig with a "-c" at the boot: prompt and then add a line like this: > pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq0 5 That's the line I use for a PNP SB16.

Has anyone successfully set up IP Masquerading (perhaps I'm using a Linuxism here?) under FreeBSD? Long ago, my FreeBSD machine at home ran Linux, and I followed a procedure that involved compiling a few extra options into the kernel and setting up some routing, which would allow my box to act as a gateway and "firewall" for other machines on my little home network, so that they could all talk to the outside world through the Linux box, instead of having to purchase additional IPs at $5/month from my cable modem provider. I had 2 ethernet cards in the machine; one for the local network, and one for the interface to the cable modem. However, since switching over to FreeBSD, I've never quite figured out how to get it going. I had to enable a couple of things in /etc/rc.conf (don't remember what they were by now), but what I really had a hard time with was setting up the routing. Under Linux, I understood the "route" command -- I don't remember the exact syntax anymore, but basically I would set the default gateway for the secondary ethernet card (eth1) to the primary ethernet card (eth0). I didn't have to actually specify the IP address, since my cable ISP uses DHCP; rather, I just specified the interface name, eth0. I'd imagine I would do something similar under FreeBSD, but I can't figure out the syntax of the route command under FreeBSD. I've been all over the man pages and have looked through the Handbook and Mailing List Archives, but haven't found a solution. Does anyone have a simple (or even complex :> ) procedure that I can follow that outlines everything I'd have to do on my system to allow it to act as a gateway for my other machines? Not only would it save me $10/month for the two additional IPs I'm paying for, but it would also allow my internal printer and file sharing to continue working if the cable service goes down (which has been happening somewhat frequently lately). Thanks very much in advance! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

However, I'm still a bit confused about something, from the list of requirements to have in place before running natd. From what I'm reading, since my cable ISP uses DHCP, I'll need to run natd with the -n and -dynamic flags. What's getting me, though, is: 4. If you wish to use the -n or -interface flags, make sure that your interface is already configured. If, for example, you wish to specify tun0 as your interface, and you're using ppp(8) on that interface, you must make sure that you start ppp prior to starting natd. The problem is that the interface is *not* configured when the machine first boots up, or if the DHCP server decides to reboot and assign everyone new IPs. While the FreeBSD box is waiting for an IP, or if the DHCP server reboots, the ethernet interface has a "temporary" IP of 0.0.0.0. The question becomes, how do you get natd to not start until *after* the IP is assigned? Or will the -dynamic switch handle that eventuality? Incidentally, is it still a good idea to have a second ethernet card to handle the "internal" network, or is one card good enough to do the job? Reason I ask is 'cause I'd like to configure a second IP address of 10.0.0.1 (with the other machines on my network being 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3, etc.) so that I can assign the other machines a gateway of 10.0.0.1 and not have to give them the actual public IP address of the ethernet adapter, since that's likely to change. And I wouldn't be able to just assign 10.0.0.1 as an alias to the existing adapter, I think, because when the DHCP client gets a new IP, it'd blow away the aliased IP. How would you make natd work using 2 ethernet adapters?

Why the confusion?? 3.0 has been in Beta for one month and was schedules to be RELEASED today, but shouldn't be used for "production" machines until it has a STABLE branch AND you've verified thru your own testing that it is stable enough for your purposes. 2.2.8 is the last RELEASE of 2.2.X and is where the STABLE branch will lead. This RELEASE is for people that are running "production" servers, and can't afford to be on the BLEEDING edge. If you're running FreeBSD on a non-production machine (or non-critical), feel free to load 3.0 on it. But most of us will wait till it's been checked out for awhile by people that MUST have the functionality it provides. I'm anxious, but patient. If I am incorrect about any of this, I appreciate/prefer gentle corrections ;o) Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

Windowmaker is a very fast moving target at the moment. Last I looked it's up to 0.20.1. Best you pick up the sources from ftp://ftp.windowmaker.org/pub/beta/srcs and build them by hand (ie, run configure+make).

Remove it from the box and throw it as far as possible. Seriously, don't use floppies if you can possibly avoid them. If you have a Microsoft floppy which you want to read, use mtools from the Ports Collection. > I once saw a guy entering a 4-letter command like "sash" and then he > entered a special state, something like after hitting "ftp".

They have a "Standalone Shell" called sash. FreeBSD doesn't have any equivalent, since it's a motherboard function.

I have some FreeBSD NFS drive mounts on an IBM AIX system..... The mounts seem to work ok until I go to open a file from the mount using the CAD program CATIA. It looks like and sounds like its going to open the file for a couple of seconds and then the file never opens and CATIA crashes. I don't know if all programs have this problem... But as I mentioned I seem to be able to copy to and from the mount without any problems. The other NFS mounts from 2 other IBM AIX systems seem to have no problem at all when opening files from them into CATIA. Does anyone have any ideas as to anything that may fix this problem, if it is a problem.....

Why is it disabled? You can go to the readme in /usr/src/sys/i386/snd(?). There are instructions there for doing pnp configuration after a boot -c. When you do this you will be explicitly enabling LDN 0. OBTW, LDN is Greek to me, but I got my card working so what the heck.

However, I am having a strange problem when building my own custom kernel. The reason of doing it was originally to enable iso3 becasue my modem sits in COM4. I followed the handbook 5.2 -5.5, the first two steps 'Config' and 'make .depend' went well, but at the step 'make' strange thing happend: no matter how I change the setting in my new kernel configuration file, set say MYKERNEL, it stopped with the message ----------------------------- .... compiling messages .... loading kernel *** Error code 1 st.o: undefined symbol "_scsi_..." referenced from text segment ... cd.o: something similar to avove line ... dpt_scsi.o: ... if_cs.o:... ... stop. ------------------ At first, I thought it was just I did wrong thing in configuration file MYKERNEL. But even I changed everything back to exact the GENERIC -- I just copy GENERIC to MYKERNEL with only one line change ident MYKERNEL then I do make again, it STILL give me the same result???!! Does that mean even GENERIC config has something wrong? I don't belive that's case. But since I installed my system everything has been runnig fine. I am really puzzled. what's wrong with this and how to fix the problem?

I am a freeBSD newbie. I am attempting to get my Sound Blaster 16 (CT2770) to work with FreeBSD. All my attempts to install it using the information in the handbook have failed. When I use the 'sbxvi0' device it returns 'sbxvi0 not found' during boot up so finally then I tried this line: device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 5 vector sbintr using the 'sb0' device seems to work. It detects 'Sound Blaster 16' during the boot sequence, and continues with drive mounting, etc. however, when I try to execute an application that uses the sound card ('MPG123') it returns the following error: DMA timed out. IRQ/DRQ conflict? My sound blaster 16 (model CT2770) is non-plug&play, and it is factory preset at IRQ 5, High DMA 5, Low DMA 1. It is not possible to reconfigure these settings with jumpers. However, nothing appears to be in conflict in my FreeBSD kernel. Thanks for any assistance. I do work in customer service, so I know the frustration of misdirected questions. Please let me know if I should direct my inquiry elsewhere.

They both borrow from each other. FreeBSD lends "ports" to NetBSD. NetBSD software is help FreeBSD with Alpha platform development. I don't know really if there is a huge difference.

Both this and your other email in booting with -c tends to indicate a h/w problem with your machine. In most cases like these the culprit is bad memory. You may want to investigate the possibility of replacing your memory chips.

Almost certainly you've removed the line controller scbus0 from your config file. The fact that this happens with GENERIC as well suggests that you have accidentally modified the config file. Since you have the CD, you can check that; if the _scsi* symbols are the only ones missing, just adding the line above should also do it.

I get the above message both at boot and from pnpinfo. My OS is 2.2.7-RELEASE with corresponding PAO patches. The computer is a NEC Versa LX (a laptop). I gather it may be significant that while in my hands this machine has never booted Windoze---the first thing it ran was 2.2.7's boot.flp. It seems Windoze can play a critical role in making pnp devices available, so perhaps this was a foolish move. The specific device I'm trying to get working is my sound chip, which has been variously described as an ESS 1918 or ESS Maestro 2. However, the BIOS suggests that various other devices (serial, parallel, IR port) are PNP as well, so I'm really surprised that pnpinfo can't find a single thing. Do I need to do the `pnp x y os enable' dance before pppinfo will see a device, or should it work regardless? The sound chip in question is also PCI, it seems. At boot it is described as follows: pci0:4: vendor=0x125d, device=0x1978, class=multimedia (audio) int a irq 5 [no driver assigned] Frustratingly, there are no BIOS options pertaining to PNP, not even the usual `PNP operating system? Yes/No'. Nor are there any options pertaining to the sound card. It is most frustrating; I'd be very grateful for any light anybody can shed. I've appended a dmesg below, in case that would be helpful. -- ``Memory management is more important than end users, followed by the scheduler, device drivers and the update daemon.

Depends on what you mean by "run like other system daemons". If you mean that it must be started automatically at system startup, well, then installing the Apache port will create a shell script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh, which will do just that. If you mean actually configure it for you... Hmmmmm... FreeBSD is good, but not prescient. ;-) It still doesn't know _how_ you want your Web server configured.

Also, the NetBSD project seems to focus to an extent on porting to multiple architectures, whereas the FreeBSD project focuses (again, to an extent) on providing a stable, high-performance server environment on Intel hardware. The OpenBSD project, on the other hand, has high security as its focus. -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 16 02:24:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA03479 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 02:24:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id CAA03472 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 02:24:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0zU66V-0005j7-00; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 11:23:23 +0200 Message-ID: <19981016112323.B21975@cityip.co.za> Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1998 11:23:23 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: "Draper, William" , "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG'" Subject: Re: Firewall-Myth or mistake?

FreeBSD contains all the elements to serve as an integral part of a firewall solution, including packet filtering (tightly integrated into the kernel), network address translation capabilities, and the wide availability of many proxy servers for various services. In addition, there are both free and commercial firewall "toolkits" available, which offer many tools which can be used in the construction of a firewall-type solution. PS: If you think a firewall is a single "black box" software solution you can busy in a shrink-wrapped package, then you have fallen prey to marketing disinformation. :-) -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 16 02:32:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA04619 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 02:32:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id CAA04602 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 02:32:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0zU6ER-0005jT-00; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 11:31:35 +0200 Message-ID: <19981016113135.C21975@cityip.co.za> Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1998 11:31:35 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: Thabibu@aol.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: To whom it may concern Mail-Followup-To: Thabibu@aol.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <99e1f728.3626dad1@aol.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <99e1f728.3626dad1@aol.com>; from Thabibu@aol.com on Fri, Oct 16, 1998 at 01:34:09AM -0400 X-PGP: ftp://ftp.cityip.co.za/users/wjv/pubkey.asc Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 16 Oct 1998 at 01:34 SAT, Thabibu@aol.com wrote: > > Could it support a small level ISP?

Check the error logs for apache.. you should find a clue to why it's not working there. You might also want to try perl -c scriptname on the cgi script to see if there's any compilation errors and then fix them.

Jahan had a point (I fell foul of this when going from 2.2.5 to -STABLE a few months ago). /etc/fstab in pre-2.2.6 FreeBSD, had the root partition in this style: /dev/wd0a root ufs rw 1 1 The current way to do this is /dev/wd0s1a root ufs rw 1 1 I found this in the ERRATA on the 2.2.6 CD-ROM (i.e. for once, I worked it out for myself, without bugging the list ;). If you cvsup to post-2.2.6, /etc/fstab isn't updated, so when you reboot the kernel can't see the root partition. I fixed this by starting an emergency shell, mounting the root partition by hand, and hacking /mnt/root/etc/fstab to comply. You can avoid this by hacking /etc/fstab before you reboot after a make installworld. Does that allay your fears?

If you have installed the same versions of XFree86 on both the RedHat 5.1 and the FreeBSD boxes, then all you need to do is copy /etc/X11/XF86Config from your Linux box to /etc/XF86Config on FreeBSD, and also, check which X server /etc/X11/X is symlinked to on the RedHat 5.1 box.

Parses the .conf files, your file structure, allows you to manage the config filees. Will (optionally) restart httpd when done. For exemplars, see the MajorCool package for administering Majordomo.

For example: I left in two devices (SCSI cards, Adaptec) that were PCI (and I don't have a PCI bus) but I had removed the PCI bus device. Some where during 'make' I would get similar errors...all referencing PCI. Therefore, if you were to remove the 'controller scbus 0' but still keep in other SCSI devices (i.e. sd0, st0, cd0) you will run into problems. It is ok to leave in devices and controllers that you plan to add in the future (as long as they don't cause conflicts) but if you disable a feature, make sure you remove any reference to it. As a side note, I will say that it took me several attempts to configure my first kernel. I tried to ask questions on the FreeBSD news group but I never got an answer, this list serve is definitely more helpful and friendlier. As a result of no help, I did find most of the answers to my questions on the various FreeBSD pages (especially the BSD Usenet searcher).

The greater question is whether the X Window System supports the card. To answer that question see www.xfree86.org. would take care of many cases.

It was a minimal install. Got /bin and /manpages off the net (2.2.7) . I installed to my second drive - a Quantum Viking 2.2G scsi. The scsi controller is a 2940uw. First drive is 3G WD IDE with win95. This is an AMD K6-166 with 96M of ram. The install seemed to go well, but when I tried to boot, it was a no go. I am running System Commander, which recognized the os on the scsi and added a nice blue BSD icon on the boot menu. When selected, I get the boot prompt. If I do nothing and let it default, it just loops every 5 seconds or so and redisplays the screen. If I type "1:sd(0,a)?" , it shows no kernels and redisplays the screen. I tried various things, but the only thing that will respond is 1:fd(0,a)? which just boots the system and brings up system commander from ide boot block. Even the -cv option does nothing. What is it doing? I got rid of all the extraneous drivers, etc. The geometry on the fdisk screen matches partition magic's numbers. Previously, I tried to write the boot manager to the root of the ide so I could capture it by re-install of system commander and use an mbr type boot. Linux worked like that on the scsi. But the FreeBSD installer has an apparent bug in that once you tell it the boot manager will reside on wd0, it tries to make you put you mount points on wd0 and will not let you mess with the scsi at all. Fearing loss of my last running OS on the ide (winbloze 95), I backed off the commit, and finding no help here, decided not to write to the mbr. This let me set up mounts on the scsi and finish install. Even let me dial my isp on my isdn modem and login (cool, put rather pointless on a min install). Is there something about this hardware combo that FreeBSD hates? There must be a kernel out there. Why can I not get to it? Is it possible to make a Fbsd boot floppy that can let me mount sd0 and look in / to see what is there?

I submit that alternative explanations for developers' lack of visible effort being expended in this direction may well exist... and that the conditions you posit are quite unlikely to be as widespread as the above might indicate. For example, I have found at least one exceedingly notable partition mis-sizing on my part (for a news server -- and the mis-sizing was exacerbated by UUNET's lack of ability or willingness to enable us to make use of one of the features of INN). I used symlinks to circumvent the problem (meeting with a modicum of success) until I could devote the time to fix it (by backing everything up, re-partitioning, and restoring). >Us less experienced users, >however, have no clue. We either take the defaults or strike out on our >own, and with disappointing regularity, neither path quite fits our needs. Or we (less experienced with FreeBSD, but not UNIX) know how to circumvent or resolve the problem. Or are you only concerned with those who are new to FreeBSD and who happen to be familiar with one particular (form of) non-FreeBSD environment? >So the users are correct to ask for a tool to help ease the transition to >FreeBSD. "The transition to FreeBSD" from what? In order to explain something, it is often useful to be able to liken parts of the new thing to something that is already familiar to the other person(s). Assuming that (in this case) all (or just the important) persons new to FreeBSD are familiar with Microsoft environments may well be wonderful for some, but I find it useless (at best). >Of course, the developers know how hard it would be to code something like >this, while the users can but think, "MSDOS has partition resizers, even >in shareware, surely FreeBSD can compete here too." We have no concept of >the differences between the filesystems, nor the inherent difficulty that >this project may present, given the vastly more complicated FS. ??!? I'm *not* a "developer" -- but I certainly understand the basics of the FFS. Further, it never once crossed my mind that "MSDOS has..." anything at all; I don't use it, and have rarely tried. Thus, although I am a person who has no concept of the differences between the FFS and whatever approach(es) Microsoft may have used, I certainly don't share your perspective on this. >So the developers are correct to maintain that such a tool is unfeasible, >given the challenge it presents, their time restraints, and the other >priorities that beset them. Folks who might be sufficiently motivated to write something are welcome to do so. The entire source code is available, as are resources such as: Marshall Kirk McKusick, et al.: The Design an Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System, Addison-Wesley, 1996 ISBN: 0-201-54979-4. I direct your attention to chapters 7 & 8. In the mean time, the tried-and-true UNIX approach is to take the machine in question down, back up the affected partitions, re-size the partitions, newfs them, restore, do some reality checks, and back them up again. The more modern approach is to use a filestore that allows dynamic re-sizing of partitions. As I recall, AIX permits this, as did (does?) DG/UX (to an extent (urrgghh -- no pun intended, for anyone else with an IBM mainframe background)). >But don't say interest is low.

They installed 2.2.7 from CD. There is no support for the 3COM 3C905B. I've pulled the if_xl.c and if_xlreg.h files from freebsd.org. I was hoping that they could run /usr/share/examples/drivers/make_device_driver.sh with 'xl' as an parameter and replace the 2 relevant files. The README says that the script only works for ISA drivers. Is there an updated version for PCI drivers? Either way, would what I suggest above have even worked (e.g. if I had an ISA driver), or is there more to it? Thanks, MikeC Michael C.

If you have the SyJet, the parallel port drive is actually a SCSI drive with a fancy cable. Buy a SCSI card and cable and you're done.

A friend of mine has a SyJet cartridge that is working as a bootable NT disk. He could not get it to work with the NTFS however.

This is, >of course, SCSI (well, we buy the parallel disk, but use it on SCSI). I have a SyJet SCSI at home and I love it. But most stores have stopped carrying it, and only stock the SparQ, which isn't available with a SCSI interface at all, and the EIDE interface can be problematic (doesn't get properly detected by some BIOSes, therefore, can't be boot device) My SyJet works great, due to the SCSI interface. Viva la SCSI (even if it took three generations to get a real spec) Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I don't think it matters, as long as the user your webserver running has search access to it.

You can either make it owned by charles, or make charles a member of the group who owns it (say "www") and make it group writable. Or some other way I haven't thought of. The latter scheme, using group-writable, may be more useful if more than one user need to put stuff in the html root. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 16 10:16:57 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA26570 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 10:16:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA26546 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 10:16:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from ben by scientia.demon.co.uk with local (Exim 2.05 #3) id 0zUCub-0006Xk-00; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 17:39:33 +0100 Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1998 17:39:32 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Dan Busarow Cc: Doug Jolley , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: qpopper Message-ID: <19981016173932.A25137@scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <199810151641.JAA25774@srv01.bigwheel.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii In-Reply-To: User-Agent: Mutt/0.94.12i (FreeBSD 3.0-BETA i386) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dan Busarow wrote: > syslogd, sendmail, anything else with a log file in /var/log > is potentially keeping /var busy.

If you have the modems call each other when you're in terminal mode, do they connect ok? I'm not convinced the modem isn't the source of the problem. It could be the modems are connecting then immediately dropping due to broken settings in one modem or another.

I have a Pentium 166 on an Abit MB, 64MB ram , two FAT32 IDE drives on the first IDE port and another IDE drive dedicated to FreeBSD (master) and a CDROM on the second IDE port. My BIOS lets me choose my boot drive and I have it set to E:. I installed FreeBSD, and the user configuration showed no conflicts except for my Ps/2 mouse, which configuration said was allowed. When I try to boot it I get a message "Panic: cannot mount root". When, at the Boot: prompt, I enter: 0:wd(0,a)? I get a result like this: . .. dev usr var stand etc proc cdrom dist bin lkm mnt root sbin tmp sys boot.hlp.cshrc .profile COPYRIGHT kernel.GENERIC kernel.config boot.config home I have tried "0:wd(0,a)GENERIC kernel" and "0:wd(0,a)compat kernel", and both run, but both also give me the "Panic: cannot mount root" error. Can anyone help a Newbie?

Most warnings can safely be ignored, and will not cause a compile to fail.

It looks as if the problem is a little deeper. We are getting disconnected every hour or so and i could not trace the problem to our machines. I tested different flow control options and still had the same problem. We have decided to go with a netopia stand alone router and change isps. If the problem presists then most likely its the phone company's issue. The connection was initially ran from start_if.tun0 but after dieing i just manually entered in ppp -background isp and this is when i sometimes got the error. I also believe -ddial would would have been more apporiate but don't think it would have helped with the line drop issue, just would have recovered better after the line drop.

Yeah, make sure it stays in it's slice.

FreeBSD requires it's own slice type; as long as you leave the desired amount of space completely unpartitioned (_COMPLETELY_) sysinstall will do the rest.

As long as your kernel has the fxp0 device built in, you configure it like any other network interface. PCI NICs require no special settings, unlike ISA NICs which need some initial TLC with the config utility.

The limits set by the sample login.conf, I don't have an unmodified one handy for comparison but since IIRC you mentioned hundreds of messages about login class daemon you probably want to look at limits such as maxproc, in the daemon section, and make sure it is appropriate for your situation. For example, if this is a web server, a maxproc=32 for class daemon will not be enough. 128 or 256 might be better. Depends entirley on the systems usage. I think the limits in the distributed login.conf are set for a single user machine.

I think there is a port with newer libs, like v2.6. They're probably using glibc6, and this requires changes to the emulator which are in 3.0.

You have programs that are leaking shared memory segments, and are now out. Logging out and back in should kick them into functioning. Check 'ipcs' when you're logged out; if stuff is sticking around under your userID dump it with 'ipcrm'.

It depends on your usage. You can partition stuff however you like; you don't have to at all, you can create a giant / if you want to. Partitioning is more of a convenience, esp. when you want to do backups. When you partition multiple disks, though, stick some swap on both; it'll increase your swap performance.

No. make_device_driver is for people who want to make a driver; the shell script creates a empty framework. You don't use it on existing drivers! Simply drop the two files in /sys/pci, then modify /sys/conf/devices and add an entry for the device.

It's a P2 with two on-board Adaptec SCSI controllers, a 7860 with the CDROM and a 7890 with two Seagate 34573LC disks. I've tried 2.2.6-RELEASE and 2.2.7-RELEASE and they both see the CDROM and boot from it, but when trying to select disks, the install procedure reports there's no disk. I tried the 3.0-19981013-BETA boot floppy and it does see the disks so I'm guessing support for the Adaptec 7890 is very recent. We're trying to build these servers for an ISP so we'd rather stay conservative with 2.2.7-STABLE. Any thoughts?

USRobotics (now owned by 3Com) had this specific trouble (and probably some other brands that were simply copying their design) and can be fixed by upgrading the MODEMs firmware. This is easy if the MODEM uses flash ROM. Just download their upgrade wizard.

USR makes V90 PCI MODEMS. You can save $50 buying a WinModem if and only if, Winblows is the ONLY platform you expect it to work with (don't be a foole). But an extra $50 will get you a V90 PCI MODEM that is a *real* modem. Internal or external (slightly higher cost due to case+power supply). My USR 56K PCI is in my OS/2/WinNT box, because my Internet gateway is VL-bus 486/66 (and runs like a dream). This gateway uses a slightly older USR DSVD 33K ISA based modem.

A natural suspicion; my only reason for believing otherwise is that for several devices whose IRQs can be manually configured in the BIOS (IR port, serial port, parallel port), the BIOS's help screen and the system manual say that the BIOS will describe these devices as ``Configured by PNP OS'' if those devices are configured by Windoze 9[58].

OSS says they're planning for a beta Maestro 2 driver in December; but I'd hoped that the alleged `SoundBlaster compatibility' would be good for something in the meantime.

Is there anything else? I'd like to see such a page too and have spent some time searching for the info already. I can say what some of the other differences are: CAM Common Access Mode You can put CAM on 2.2 though More newer devices supported, some older devices dropped (PAS16 SCSI part) I thought someone said it supports pthreads, but I don't know Support for SMP Symetrical Multi-Processor support (maybe only up to a quad processor, but still way cool) Anyone else??

I've got tcpd installed, and it works dandy; syslog -d shows the messages coming through fine.

I'll admit it. It was me. I did something stupid, and my /usr/src/sys directory was gone, accompanied by the sound of my system laughing at me... or was that the SCSI disk churning?

I went to the handbook, to , and got the helpful advice: >Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system, then the kernel source > has not been been installed. Follow the instructions for installing packages to add this > package to your system. Okie. So... it's a package? Cool. I c'n do that. I went to , looked in /pub/FreeBSD/packages/All, and... hmm. Nothing helpfully labeled as 'kernel sources' or 'system sources', or, really, any sources at all. Up a level. No division for 'system' or 'kernel'. Okie... let's try /pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE. No dice. To make a long story short, it would have been /really/ helpful for the handbook to tell you /what/ package needed to be added, but failing that, could some kind soul please take pity on poor newbie me, and point me to the right package?

I'm pretty sure no-one's sitting on IRQ 14, so I have to hope it's the cables. The disk's only about 18 months old, it can't be dead already :-( (Would BIOS disk power down settings cause this? I think they caused timeouts before[1], but it was only a single line I used to see for them. I haven't seen it for wd2, which takes ages to start up, so it probably isn't this.) I've seen no other problems with this disk, so I'll just hope it isn't too serious.

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.

The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to answer a question =========================== Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending "> " to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ">" and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as "Re: ". If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)". That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD 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).

These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 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 assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): Page 11 Install ports when installing the system === 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: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in Page 13 Starting the spooler the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a Page 15 Starting the spooler problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 17 Starting the spooler book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 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 Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%. Page 1620 _________ The description of /etc/hosts.lpd erroneously refers to the file /etc/ftpusers. This should be /etc/hosts.lpd, of course. Thanks to Anders Andersson for drawing this to my attention.

My feeder(what's defined in $INN/etc/hosts.nntp && $INN/etc/nntpsend.ctl) happends to be news.uu.net. I regurarly run nntpsend from crontab to feed up whatever was batched up in the prior 10 minutes. Now for the problem:( If i have an article that is larger than 300 bytes in size(approximate), innxmit(which runs every 10 min) timeouts and doesnt transfer any of the articles. Just for the kicks, i tried running nntpsend with -d/-D option, and noticed that innxmit transfers the articles ok, upto the last dot, after which it waits for responce. Since it doesnt get any reply back within the allocated time, i get that timeout error. So i start up ktrace: # ktrace -tcnisuw -i /usr/news/bin/nntpsend -d get a little kdump.out file..with the relavant output after the articles and the last ".\r" below: .\r " 12341 innxmit RET write 1431/0x597 12341 innxmit CALL select(0x6,0xefbfb854,0,0,0xefbfb84c) 12341 innxmit CSW stop kernel 12341 innxmit CSW resume kernel 12341 innxmit RET select 1 12341 innxmit CALL read(0x5,0x96e8,0x400) 12341 innxmit RET read -1 errno 60 Operation timed out 12341 innxmit CALL write(0x2,0xefbfb144,0x27) 12341 innxmit GIO fd 2 wrote 39 bytes "No reply to check, Operation timed out " 12341 innxmit RET write 39/0x27 12341 innxmit CALL write(0x2,0xefbfb344,0x22) 12341 innxmit GIO fd 2 wrote 34 bytes "Rewriting batch file and exiting. " 12341 innxmit RET write 34/0x22 Ok..so i i decide to run tcpdump, since this obviosly looks like the article got written to a socket . By this time i start having suspicions that this might be a kernel(or driver) issue, because telnet'ing directly to nntp-in.uu.net 119 and posting a large article hangs as well. So i run tcpdump..and interestingly enough, only part of the last article gets transfered, so the remote end never sees the last ".\r" and doesnt acknoledge(thus the timeout). I have verified that this is not a packet filter issue by posting a large enough article from machine(bsd/os) inside and outside the filter. I am using an ep0 driver w/ 3c5x9 which is detected fine, and works fine(news feed is quite large and never any problems with it).

Black. Nothing. Not even a crosshatch pattern and mouse pointer. I had used XFree86 previously but under RH5, on the same machine using the same configuration options (except for the mouse, since I'm running the mouse daemon on FreeBSD). I have a three year old ATI Mach64 with 2 MB VRAM onboard, so I've been using the generic Mach64 server. The version of XFree86 that ran before is almost a year old now, and the one I have with FreeBSD 2.2.7 is the latest (I don't know if there are any patches that should be applied, but I just purchased 2.2.7). I'm unaware of any inherent differences that may exist between the Linux and FreeBSD versions of XFree86 (except of course for the fact that they're compiled for different platforms), nor how that would affect anything to give the problem I've been experiencing. I still haven't been able to identify the exact source of the problem. I know, however, that the server must be running, since it hasn't been giving me any kind of error message (mind you I haven't checked /var/logs/ messages either). But when attempting to run XF86Setup (which runs without a problem), at the time it starts the server, with the Mach64 server I get a black screen, and with the SVGA server (mind you, I was trying to run it at 1024x768 and 16bpp) I get an error message stating that the server cannot be started. All I have from it is no reaction at all. If anyone has any clues to what may be causing this reaction, it would definetely help me quite a bit. Everything else seems to run fine for the limited amount of things I've tried. BTW, this is on a fairly generic X-User installation (just added docs and man pages, mostly, plus compatibilty with older FBSD binaries).

This will be fairly simple. Go to http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html first. Get the boot floppy per the instructions.

Thanks for the feedback and I have plans to setup a local DNS. However what I am looking for is WHY ppp dialed. Notice I am not using ppp in auto mode. I am using it background mode. >From what I understand of the man page, and please correct me if wrong, background mode becomes a daemon if it connects. It doesn't mention anything about re-dialing if connection is dropped. I understand auto is supposed connect every time there is a packet. Does background has this behavior too? For instance if I use pppctl and do a "close" on ppp. It not only drops the connection, but terminates ppp also. ---- francisco@natserv.com The power to serve. http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 16 18:12:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA01988 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 18:12:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f292.hotmail.com [207.82.251.183]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id SAA01913 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 18:12:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from lmicuf@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 910 invoked by uid 0); 17 Oct 1998 01:11:37 -0000 Message-ID: <19981017011137.909.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 192.35.232.22 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 18:11:37 PDT X-Originating-IP: [192.35.232.22] From: "Larry Michel" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: An SU executable Content-Type: text/plain Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1998 18:11:37 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG To whom it may concern, I have FreeBSD on my machine, and it was doing great until I got careless. I was trying to see which shared libraries some of my executable in /usr/bin were using, and I accidentally exited my root shell after renaming /usr/lib to /usr/lib2. The problem is now that su, telnet and other utilities such as cc, rlogin do not work anymore. I fortunately have a few applications opened such as telnet whose executables won't work either. My question is: Is it possible to request and download an su executable that would be linked so that it looked in /usr/lib2 at run time instead of /usr/lib. Are there any other way to logon as root?

Sure you can - IBM did it all the time back when paper documentation was _it_. It does increase the cost. Instead of binding the pages, print them on 3-hole paper and distribute in a 3 ring binder. Publish errata over the net, and a paper update every time the minor version changes (3.0 -> 3.1). Yes, I know why this isn't done; but I also know that it can be.

The 'agent' is probally partially the motherboards BIOS, and the BIOS of any PNP cards in your system. In my dial-up system, my modem is a Plug and Pray. The BIOS on boot up of the system detects this fact, looks for the PNP ID string, assigns or reserves the IRQ and addresses for it and allows the device to communicate to the system. When FreeBSD starts coming up I believe that it looks at the BIOS notes which IRQs and such are in use, then starts searching for hardware in the system. (Which is opposite of what Microsoft products do, they let the BIOS tell them what is present.) When it comes to your PNP device, it reads the ID strings and enables the card. PCI is tied into the system more, making it effectivly automatically PNP as far as the BIOS and such is concerned. > I am running the PCMCIA drivers, though I'm unclear what that has to > do with this.

It's possible that the sound card has been 'stripped' so much to fit into the laptop that it's not going to work. :( It's also possible that it's not 100% SB compatible (which seems to mean nothing these days anyways as I can name 3 brands of cards off the top of my head that won't run under SB settings!) As for the PCI part, it depends on how the sound is wired into the rest of the system. I sorta doubt it's PCI... but you never know with laptops. Good luck though! And don't give up..:) I took me three months to get my modem working right!

Because it supports the Freebsd project. Now about the question off witch OS is better quite honestly I couldn't say ... Linux,FreeBSD,OpenBSD and NetBSD they all have their stong and weak points. The only way to find out what OS and distribution you like best is to try them all for 6 Months and then deside. I personally Like FreeBSD for it's stability (servers), Linux for it's ease off use (Workstations), OpenBSD for security ( ideal for a Firewall ) and NetBSD for the small footprint ( Older Sun's like the 3/60). I also have SunOS on a 3/80 witch is good for learing the way Unix was in the early 80's ( The Sun 3/80's are a damn site better then the PC's from that time ) and I'm also getting Solaris and SCO openserver to play with and maybe a VAX if I can find one on the cheap. So for me the purchase off distributions is out off the question I try to get them off the net or at 10 - 20 USD for the commercial OS's.. Michael --- Michael C. Vergallen A.k.A.

(Try http://www.freebsd.org/~gibbs for the gory details ). Just be warned: if you rely on an aic driver (such as aic152x), you are SOL. CAM won't support it, and you can't opt out of CAM. I have heard rumors that someone is working on it, though. aic is not aha, so if you have aha, I think you're fine. Anyway, you probably don't have to worry about it. Just thought I get the warning out. And with CAM, your devices look like daX and saX instead of sdX and stX. -Rob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 16 19:17:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA12263 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 19:17:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dsinw.com (dsinw.com [207.149.40.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA12258 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 19:17:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hamellr@dsinw.com) Received: from direct-source.com.direct-source.com (ppp70.pm3-0.pdx.dsinw.com [207.149.41.70]) by dsinw.com (8.8.8/8.7.3) with SMTP id TAA15974 for ; Fri, 16 Oct 1998 19:16:20 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1998 19:14:13 -0700 () From: Rick Hamell cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: V90 PCI modem In-Reply-To: <199810162300.QAA07321@hub.freebsd.org> Message-ID: X-X-Sender: hamellr@direct-source.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > >The only PCI modems I've seen are WinModems. > > Diamond (Supra) makes a PCI "Supra Max 56i" modem that now works with NT > too (drivers need to be downloaded from their web site though).

Are you installing from CD-ROM, or booting with a floppy and installing over the net? If the latter, you could go into your BIOS and temporarily disable the 7860 controller, and then FreeBSD should recognize the 7890. I suspect that what's happening is that FreeBSD is scanning for an adapter, finding it (the 7860), and is not scanning for any additional adapters. Hence, it's not finding your hard drives that are hooked up to the second adapter (the 7890). Would I be correct in assuming that your PE2300 doesn't have the RAID backplane? We have a 2300 at work, but it has the Dell PowerEdge Expandable Raid Controller (PERC) in it, so it really has 3 adapters (and the hard drives are hooked up to the PERC), but only 2 are Adaptec. The CD-ROM is hooked up to the 7860, and nothing is on the 7890. Once you've got FreeBSD installed, then when you build your custom kernel and enable support for your Adaptec controllers (normally adding the line "controller ahc0" to your kernel configuration file), make sure you add 2 lines in, that is: controller ahc0 controller ahc1 That will tell the kernel to look for 2 adapters, rather than just one.

Any thoughts? You've got two choices: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/3.0-RELEASE/ or ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/development/cam/2.2CAM-19980716-SNAP/ The latter is the CAM code ported to -stable around the time of the 2.2.7 release.

Whatever your reason (for wanting to "disable telnet"), I do not recommend changing the "default telnet port" (which would be, of course, 23), at all. If someone were to want to find out the port number, they could simply do a portscan, and your "secret" is revealed. Not very good. >Dont give em shells, ie: change /usr/local/bin/bash to /etc/false or >something, which could be a small script like this: >echo "You do not have shell access please mail admin@yourdomain.com for >more info" >(dont forgot to add the fake shell to /etc/shells) That'll work, except the fact that you failed to mention "#!/bin/sh" (or similar) as the first line of the script. And why /etc? (Are we doing it The Solaris Way?) Let's not forget that the nice FreeBSD folks conveniently placed a script similar to that in /sbin/nologin. >- Ace24 (ace24@gmx.net) >Admin at lucian.net and twistedminds.com >Member of The Warlords (www.warlords.net) >public pgp key available, send a mail to ace24@gmx.net with "PGP KEY >REQUEST" (no quotes) in the subject line.

Now you wish you had bought "The Complete FreeBSD", don't you? From the text version, If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 191), 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.

No. You'll have to repartition or put some directories on a different file system. This is one of my main objections to too many file systems.

I am currently having some problems with running certain programs in X. For example, if I try to run kdehelp I get the following error: # kdehelp /usr/libexec/ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.3.0: minor version 0 older than expected 1, using it anyway /usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "_ftok" called from kdehelp:kdehelp at 0x3333c # I'm guesstimating this is because my libc.so is too old to handle the request so I set about trying to obtain the current version. Unfortunately I haven't the foggiest of how to do this. I added the 2.2.5 to 2.2-stable upgrade for ports which didn't help. Ive had a look at how to use CVS but i'm not sure if it applies here. This is also happening when using icq JAVA and once when I started XFree86. I am using version 2.2.5 release from Wcreek cd-rom Sorry to bother you with something that is probably well documented somewhere on your website but I truly did try to fix my own problem! Once again thanks for your time and any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated. Regards Ben Shurey.

Neither machine has an owner knowledgeable enough to have changed anything more complex than installing bash. 'echo $TERM' comes back cons25 on both machines. I logged in several times and still couldn't use the enter key within mutt (i.e. could list mail but not read it). Other keys worked in mutt, and the enter key worked at the bash prompt.

But I still don't think 3.0's a better choice unless you have some specific requirement which 2.2 can't fulfil. One example might be support for UltraDMA: if you have newish IDE drives, they will run *much* faster under 3.0. > I once heared people say for servers that have to be fast you'd try 3.0 > instead of 2.2.X...

Here's an example of the difference between some typical programs on a 3.0-BETA elf machine and a 3.0-RELEASE aout machine: === root@razzia (/dev/ttyp3) /bin 6 -> ls -l cp csh ps sh -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 60904 Oct 14 10:32 cp -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 258280 Oct 14 10:32 csh -r-xr-sr-x 1 root kmem 187872 Oct 14 10:33 ps -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 321120 Oct 14 10:33 sh === root@razzia (/dev/ttyp3) /bin 7 -> file cp csh ps sh cp: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped csh: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped ps: setgid ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped sh: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped === root@razzia (/dev/ttyp3) /bin 8 -> cd /freebie/bin === root@razzia (/dev/ttyp3) /freebie/bin 9 -> ls -l cp csh ps sh -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 65536 Oct 17 17:29 cp -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 258048 Oct 17 17:29 csh -r-xr-sr-x 1 root kmem 188416 Oct 17 17:30 ps -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 319488 Oct 17 17:30 sh === root@razzia (/dev/ttyp3) /freebie/bin 10 -> file cp csh ps sh cp: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable csh: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable ps: setgid FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable sh: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable In other words, in some cases ELF is bigger than a.out, in some cases it's the other way round. Either way, it's not a big difference.

Kill that. In this case, though, it's highly likely that 11534's parent is 11532. 11532 is I_dle, trying_to_Exit, and is a s_ession leader, and (+) is a foreground process. Why it won't exit is another story.

Rebooting is a sure cure :-( But they are fairly harmless, unless the number of zombies gets large.

I'd like to change the RELENG_2_2 tag in my cvsup file that I was using to cvsup 2.2-stable sources, to the new 3.x tag (if it exists). I haven't seen any commit mail about what the new tag will be, but will RELENG_3 pull the latest (non current) 3.x sources ? I presume that the release tag is RELENG_3_0_RELEASE, but I'd prefer to make the change now, once.

I'm trying to install onto the 2.1Gig drive. I'm booting from the floptical using a 1.44 Mb floppy for the install and then changing the boot drive to the 2.1 G drive for using FBSD. I don't want to install the FBSD boot manager as I have NT on the 8.4G and I need to keep that there, and I prefer the NT boot loader. Please help. I've no idea what could be causing this.

The test I was performing was to FTP a gzipped file from our server to my new PC. The Realtek 8029 is a PCI card and I am using an IDE hard drive (just the BX chipset's controller) In my kernerl config settings I changed the IDE controller to enable 32bit transfers with maximum sector transfers So, I changed controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr to this controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0x80ff80ff vector wdintr And now I can FTP files from our server at 1000k/second. I connected an ethernet load monitor (on a 3com hub) and noticed the PC was downloading a burst of data and then waiting before downloading the next burst. The PC was downloading data and then spending a long time writing to the disk and then fetching more data.

I have a question about ppp. Before, i used linux and all i had to set up to connect to my isp using PPP, (not slip) was configure : ================== /etc/resolv.conf /etc/ppp/options ================== Now that i install freebsd, i'm confused. I went to the www.freebsd.org , and went to handbook and look for setting up ppp. Well, i found : ========================== 15.1.5. PPP Configuration and 15.2.1. Working as a PPP client ========================== I notice that ( 15.2.1. Working as a PPP client) is identical as setting up PPP to connect to my isp with linux. But i don't understand what ( 15.1.5 PPP Configuration ) is for? Using ( 15.2.1 Working as a PPP client ) makes you use kermit or minicom, or a chat script; which i am used to using minicom to connect to my isp when i used linux. And using ( 15.1.5. PPP Configuration ), you just type in "ppp" then, you do all this commands, then you type in "term" and from there you can dial in to your isp. I'm just wondering what the difference it is between using ( 15.1.5. PPP Configuration ) than from ( 15.2.1. Working as a PPP client ) ? All i want to do is connect to my isp, and accomplish pppd so i can stay connected.

Now the system won't boot. The boot process runs almost to completion stopping at the line "npx0: INT 16 interface". I suspect that the problem *MIGHT* be the missing /dev directory. I would like to know if people agree or disagree with that hypothesis. I would also like to know how to re-build the contents of the /dev directory. I have a boot disk, a fixit disk, and a cd-rom. Finally, although I want to learn how to do it, I fear that I may not be out of the woods once I get the system to re-boot. So, I was wondering if there is a way that I can re-install *ONLY* the root file system from the cd-rom. Thanks very much for any input. ... doug _____________________________________________________________________ Doug Jolley mailto://doug@footech.com http://www.footech.com Don't bogart that file, my friend.

We use SMC EtherPower (8432T) cards, and have seen similar messages: "de0: enabling AUI port" when the card has only a RJ45(!) We have had problems with the cards going to "sleep" spontaneously as well. We used to have to ifconfig down and ifconfig up to get them to wake back up. Although when we upgraded to 2.2.7, this fix no longer worked. I've been asking around and it may have to do with the auto-sensing not working quite right. You can explicity state the port to use (and thereby disabling media auto-selection), via ifconfig: ifconfig de0 media 10baseT/UTP mediaopt full-duplex When you "ifconfig de0" you should see this: media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active change to: media: 10baseT/UTP status: active Also, I received a suggestion to "write a keepalive script for de0, which seems to go to sleep more often than others". -Tony Chen adchen@skatefaq.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 17 09:30:15 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA29096 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 17 Oct 1998 09:30:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from godzilla.zeta.org.au (godzilla.zeta.org.au [203.15.68.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA29079; Sat, 17 Oct 1998 09:30:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bde@godzilla.zeta.org.au) Received: (from bde@localhost) by godzilla.zeta.org.au (8.8.7/8.8.7) id CAA32472; Sun, 18 Oct 1998 02:29:44 +1000 Date: Sun, 18 Oct 1998 02:29:44 +1000 From: Bruce Evans Message-Id: <199810171629.CAA32472@godzilla.zeta.org.au> To: hardware@FreeBSD.ORG, questions@FreeBSD.ORG, roger@cs.strath.ac.uk Subject: Re: Realtek 8029 goes slow. 200k/second.

Try using DMA mode (flags 0x20002000). The best case for PIO mode (16MB/sec) can barely keep up with a current fast IDE disk (14MB/sec?), and since the CPU is doing the tranfer, this matters more than when a busmastering SCSI controller can't keep up. With 16-bit transfers, the best case for PIO mode is 8MB/sec, so it couldn't even keep up with yesterday's fast IDE disk (10MB/sec).

I'm running low of disk space on /usr, and I decided to move /usr/home to its own /home partition. I tried one thing... I did a setup of the new partition using /stand/sysinstall, giving all the space left to /home. To make things clearer, I must expose my disk layout, and I must precise that I have *no* possiblity of backup. fdisk:-------------------------------- ******* Working on device /dev/rwd0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=782 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl) parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=782 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: The data for partition 2 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 3072384, size 3233664 (1578 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 381/ sector 1/ head 0; end: cyl 781/ sector 63/ head 127 The data for partition 3 is: sysid 11,(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT) start 8064, size 1064448 (519 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 1/ sector 1/ head 0; end: cyl 132/ sector 63/ head 127 The data for partition 4 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 1072512, size 1999872 (976 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 133/ sector 1/ head 0; end: cyl 380/ sector 63/ head 127 --------------------------------------------- The last slice is the one I want to reserve to FreeBSD. The problem is that when I used sysinstall to create the new slice, it installed it into the first slice, /dev/wd0s1. Then the system could not boot, because it could only find the /home partition which contained only homes, no swap, no kernel, no "/bin". Now, I tried ( as you can see by the fdisk output) to put it in wd0s4 instead, but I just ahieved to create the MBR entry with entry, and I couldn't create the disklabel. In fact, I never achieved the creation of a brand new BSD parition, disklabel always giving me something like: disklabel: ioctl: DGCINFO, invalid argument. or something like that... So, what I ask is: -why wasn't FreeBSD able to boot from anything else than my wd0s1? Is it because it was the first on the drive? -How am I supposed to create a partition, outside of the sysinstall utility? -If I create the /home partition on wd0s4 instead of wd0s1, will it work better? -Do I need to put something else thatn a plain partition on the /home patition?

Does it mean that one of server >vulnerable? Well, if these are binaries straight from the installation sets, then perhaps. If you rebuilt your system from source code, then it may have compiled telnetd with different libs, etc, due to differing configurations. I believe 2.2.6 is "out-of-the-box" vulnerable to the QPOP bug (check inetd.conf), so it is very possible that someone could have obtained illegal access to the machine this way or another, and installed a telnetd backdoor. Staying up-to-date with security information is not a bad idea. At the least, check with FreeBSD's errata list at www.FreeBSD.org, and fix any known bugs (at the least, security bugs). Good luck. -ysyi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 17 10:49:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA06361 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 17 Oct 1998 10:49:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from horst.bfd.com (horst.bfd.com [12.9.219.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA06354 for ; Sat, 17 Oct 1998 10:49:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ejs@bfd.com) Received: from HARLIE.bfd.com (bastion.bfd.com [12.9.219.14]) by horst.bfd.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id RAA12640; Sat, 17 Oct 1998 17:48:53 GMT (envelope-from ejs@bfd.com) Date: Sat, 17 Oct 1998 10:48:53 -0700 (PDT) From: "Eric J.

Any profit the reseller makes is theirs to keep. However, consider: At a time when the single unit cost of FreeBSD from Walnut Creek was $40, and the subscription price $25, the local retailer price was also $25. Walnut Creek has said direct-order prices are deliberately inflated so users will have a reason to seek out their local resellers.

There is no RELENG_3_0 tag (analogous to RELENG_2_2) because 3.0 is not on a branch, like 2.2 is. If you want 3.0.0-RELEASE, get RELENG_3_0_0_RELEASE. This is analogous to getting, say, RELENG_2_2_7_RELEASE to get 2.2.7-R. If you want the latest 3.0 code, use a dot as the tag ("tag=."), indicating that you want the "head" of the tree. This is analogous to using RELENG_2_2 to track 2.2-STABLE. If you use cvsup to track the ports collection, you can look at it and note that you're also using "tag=." there, because it's unbranched. -- Matthew Hunt * Science rules. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.

So my questions is, what are the disadvantages and advantages of one method over the other that i might be missing? well i have one for each of the method already figured out: 1) cvsup download only changes to source, not the complete source right? 2) /stand/sysinstall does not require make world (very time consuming). any others?

Emacs isn't an editor, it's a religion. If you get more than this answer, you're liable to get two completely different viewpoints: one group say it's the best thing that ever happened, the others think it's a symbol of doom. Once upon a time, Emacs was big, bloated and slow. Then other software caught up, and now it's not noticably worse than vi in memory consumption. Netscape and most Microsoft software make both look small and lean. On the other hand, Emacs is *much* easier to learn than vi. Use the X version.

I retried the installation today, and within xf86config, I identified my card as a Mach64, but chose the SVGA server. Once the installation process completed, I fired up X (using startx) and got it to work. However, this is of course very limiting, and I'd still like to use the Mach64 server. What happens when I try using the Mach64 server is rather strange. The screen is completely blank. Black. Nothing at all appears (for those who haven't read my last message). I now know it's related directly with the server. I have used XFree86 in the past, with this hardware, running the Mach64 server, but this was a one year old version of the software running on RH5.0. I'm now running FreeBSD 2.2.7 off a fresh install from the distribution CD's. No code remains from the old RH installation, and the machine is dedicated to FreeBSD. This is a 3 year old Mach64 (1995) with 2 MB VRAM. I'll continue looking into the problem (I've been suggested to try changing modes while the server is running byt entering CTRL-ALT-plus or minus, and to bring the output during x startup to a text file to see what's happening. If anyone has ever encountered this problem and knows how to deal with it to get it working at full speed again (i.e. using the Mach64 server without any problems) then please drop a note! Thanks!

The one I know is: STRACE(1M) INTERACTIVE UNIX System STRACE(1M) NAME strace - print STREAMS trace messages SYNOPSIS strace [ mid sid level ] ... FreeBSD doesn't use STREAMS, so there is no analogue of this program. But since you obviously think you have a use for it, I wonder if this is what you're talking about.

The easy way to find out is to: # cvs log /usr/src/Makefile | more RCS file: /src/ncvs/src/Makefile,v Working file: /usr/src/Makefile head: 1.221 branch: locks: strict access list: symbolic names: RELENG_3_0_0_RELEASE: 1.220 RELENG_2_2_7_RELEASE: 1.109.2.33 RELENG_2_2_6_RELEASE: 1.109.2.25 RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE: 1.109.2.19 RELENG_2_2_2_RELEASE: 1.109.2.4 BTW, the first time you check out this tag, the system will take about 10 minutes before it does anything. Then it will continue normally. We're not 100% sure why that is, but it looks as if it's looking for the first occurrence of the tag, and it's not in the ports tree yet. Since ports are before src in the alphabetical order, it has to get through them before it finds the tag. Then it starts the checkout. This won't happen a second time, because cvs stores the tag in a file $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/val-tags.

Without further information, I can only guess. FreeBSD is compatible with BSD/OS, if that's what you mean.

Well, for the ports, see http://www.freebsddiary.com/freebsd/allports.htm I've never tried the other bits, but from that example, you might be able to figure out the man bits.

None of it looks difficult to handle: it's the standard X library. If you tell us what package it is, we might be able to tell you more. If you can get the binary, there's a good chance that it will run on FreeBSD unchanged.

I had no problems with the new named.conf file. Let me explain what I have been doing. I am using NAT on my home network. I'm using the 10.x.x.x IP's for my LAN. I have been playing with DNS because I want to learn it and hopefully someday will use it for my own little official home network. I created a fake DNS network using my fake IP's. I used "net.sam" domain. And this has always worked perfectly in combination with the "forward only" option of named. 10.0.0.1 is the FreeBSD box and 10.0.0.2 is my NT box. Since upgrading to FreeBSD 3.0, some errors have been popping up in the system log and I'm not sure what is causing this. I can't find anything in the Man pages or mail archives. Here are the errors.. named[94]: attempted to fetch zone Net.Sam from self (10.0.0.1) named[94]: unapproved update from [10.0.0.2].1038 for 0.0.10.in-addr.arpa The first line sounds like it might be a config problem, but I'm not sure what. Second error I have no clue why my NT box would be trying to give some kind of update. If anyone can assist, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
