If you will use a different HD to install FBSD - which I personally think to be a better idea - you won't have a problem, except for the fact that you won't be able to exchange files among platforms; But you can avoid this by leaving a DOS (pure old FAT) partition at your FBSD disk. This can be done at installation time, when you are defining FBSD's slices. Won't require too much expertise, IMHO. Now, if the case would be installing FBSD in the same disk, w/ Win98... oh, well... I do't know... Then you will have to make sure that fips will be able to partition it correctly. AFAIK, it is not that sophisticated right now, and you may have to use Norton's tools, i've heard.

The clients connection stops working and we can not ping the client. Once the computer has been restarted everything returns to normal until next time. The client logs in ok, and their username appears as being logged in .. but thats as far as it goes. This is becoming a big problem now, as we are getting more clients.

My Logitech Mouseman mouse is hooked up to a PS2 mouse port on my machine and FreeBSD does not see it. It works when I switch to com1, but I hate doing that since com1 is my modem port. Is there anything special that I need to do in order to have the PS2 mouse port working on FreeBSD? Secondly is there a shortcut to install ALL packages without going in and selecting everyone with the space bar? Thank you for your help. Srinivasan Iyengar.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok, I went to sleep with popper working perfectly fine, and I wake up today with it dying with the message: Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[432]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[428]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:04 eyelab popper[423]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[431]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[425]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 Apr 26 15:11:05 eyelab popper[419]: Unable to obtain socket and address of client, err = 57 (This is repeated a bunch of time for every connect attempt). Looking through the sources, this error is caused by a call to get getpeername failing, so I assume that the problem lies there. Hmm, error number 57 appears to be ENOTCONN, which is odd because I would have thought popper wouldn't even start without a connection (since it's being run from inetd). The really odd thing about this is nothing about the system has changed from last night when it was working fine. So far I've tried disabling named on the system, recompiling the same version of popper, and installing a more recent version of popper. As far as I can recall I haven't changed anything on this system before this for the last few weeks, so it seems really odd taht this problem would crop up mysteriously overnight. If anyone has any suggestions I'd really appreciate them, also if you could please cc it to gschrock@voyager.net, the volume of mail I get at my main email address makes it tough to look for responses with things like elm :).

The front end program uses popen() to create a pipe to the first program and gets the return code from pclose(). The program that is piped to uses exit() to return an error code other than 0 if a problem occurs. At first I thought I was getting garbage values returned but then I discovered that all the returned where multiplied by 256. If I divide the value returned by 256 I get one of the return codes I specified in my program but I'm afraid something may be wrong if I'm getting it back as a multiple of 256.

Unfortunately you didn't provide us with nearly enough information to even guess what the problem is. :) The first thing I would do is open two windows to the machine that the nameserver is on. You can do this at the console with virtual terminals or with X windows... whatever works for you. In one window I'd tail the log that named writes to. On a default system you'd do: tail -f /var/log/messages If you've moved your named log to a different location, use that filename instead. Next, I'd kill the nameserver and restart it. Then go to the other window and watch the messages you see in the log while the nameserver is starting. You should get some good hints as to what the problem is and where to look to solve it. If that doesn't fix you up and the zone file is short, post it to the list and I or someone will take a look at it and hopefully find your error. If you're not comfortable posting it to the list or it's very long, feel free to send it to me personally. DNS work is one of the things I do for a living, but if your problem is easy to see and fix (and most problems of this nature are, especially if it was working at one time) I won't charge you. If it's something that would take more time to fix than I'm comfortable with giving away I will contact you and we can negotiate terms. Finally, if you are doing serious DNS work where your time is valuable, I cannot recommend highly enough that you purchase the book "DNS and BIND, Second Edition" by Paul Albitz and Cricket Liu. It is published by O'Reilly and Associates and is THE book on DNS.

You want the one in /usr/X11R6/lib/.

DG already described the literal cause of the problem, the process table (which is predetermined when you compile your kernel) was full. The specific reason it happened at this time (after such a long uptime) was probably a mail bomb if your log snippet is any indication. I also agree that upgrading should be a high priority, at least in part since it seems like you're using this box for mail and getting a more secure version of sendmail should be a high priority, in addition to all the other stuff that's improved since way back then. :) If you need help with the upgrade, visit http://www.freebsd.org/docs.html and check out the upgrading from source tutorial.

The returned status contains additional information in the high order bits, the lowest 8 bits contain the return code. man wait for details, you may want to use the WEXITSTATUS(status) macro to get the return code.

If you have from 3 to 5 PeeCees that you intended to network at home 10Mbit/sec should do it; if you are commercial, you'll need 100Mb.

Once all the european countries are in the Euro we can replace the local currency, symbol keycode 243 in UK, with the Euro symbol and everything works out OK. National currencies will hopefully then cease to exist - despite our Euro-sceptics and the banks will be unable to fleece on every currency exchange.

I generally wander off for a cup of coffee when I'm doing a big Java compile, but for interactive stuff I have no complaints about the performance. Can't say the same about Win95 on my P150 laptop :( As someone else said, the main bottlenecks will be the ethernet and that video card. Maybe you can pick up a cheap VLB S3 card somewhere.

Hm, I have been under the impression that -current has the latest fixes to ppp. Guess I was wrong :) By the way, I cvsupped and rebuilt the world on Saturday, so I assumed that I was fairly up-to-date.

I have a choice of F1 [dos (Win95)] or F5 (2nd drive). After I choose I get a message that my boot sector is going to be modifiied. If I choose F5, I then get another prompt with the above plus F2 for FreeBSD followed by another warning that my boot sector is about to be modified. Should this be happening? During the install I chose to install the boot manager (apparently on both drives) and did not use any flags (such as make bootable) anywhere. My question: When installing Boot Easy, is it only necessary to put it on my original boot drive (wd0s1), and should I have made my FreeBSD slice bootable? Yes I have read all the installation references I could find, including the page on paritioning the disk. Thanks for any comments.

I can't get my network adapter card to work and I'm running out of places to check. Hope you can help. I have three computers. Two are running Windows variants, the third is now running FreeBSD. They're connected by Ethernet. All have generic (LinkSys) NE2000 compatible network adapters. >From the FreeBSD machine, if I run ping to another machine, I get this error ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down ping: sendto: Host is down I'm not sure what "host" it's referring to, but the other two machines are up and on the network. I can ping from one to the other. Neither can ping the FreeBSD machine. The IP address for the FreeBSD machine is 10.0.0.4. An NT machine is 10.0.0.1 and a Win95 machine is 10.0.0.2. If I try to make the FreeBSD machine ping itself (ping 10.0.0.4) I get good results, the number of bytes returned, etc. The loopback test (ping 127.0.0.1) also works (I wonder if they're really doing the exact same thing, i.e. whether the loopback address gets converted to the host address before the ping starts). I believe that the machine is recognizing the network adapter. During bootup, I get ed0 at 0x300-0x31f irq 10 on isa ed0: address 00:40:05:3a:50:95, type NE2000 (16 bit) so it seems that FreeBSD is able to get the card's Ethernet address. Lines that look important in rc.conf are: hostname="FreeBie2" nisdomainname="NO" ... network_interfaces"ed0 lo0" ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" Does anything look blatantly wrong? What else can I check for errors/info? The gameplan for this machine, by the way, is to turn it into a router. I'll add a modem and hope to use that as the other network interface.

Ballantine" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I have a strange question about freebsd and potential "almost-broken" hardware. I have a NCR630 with an Adaptec AHA2490 and a 3COM etherlink III. I'm running NT and did have current on it. The other day I tried to reboot FreeBSD-current and the FB boot process hung, first before the disk checks and then after the disk checks with the SCSI disk light locked on. (Did this a few times.) I then decided to load 980311-SNAP and the system would hang when it tried to establish the default route to the router. (several times) At this point I rebooted the system to NT, and lo and behold the network card wasn't working. After a couple of reboots, it started working again and I had conductivity again. Anyway, wondering if the SNAP was a problem, I tried to load 2.2.6-RELEASE, and this load hung when it was trying to start the emergency shell. Also, the boot manager (osbsbeta) would stop working, and after I check on it, and found it ok, it would work again. So anyway my question is FreeBSD stressing something on the system that would detect "early" hardware problems that aren't found under NT?? And could the "locked" disk cause the network board to lock up and/or cause the bootmanager problem? Any insight is appreciated.

The installation program locks up running sysinstall. I have traced it down to a problem with sysinstall and my ZIP drive. The drive is an Iomega ZIP drive attached as the second device on my secondary IDE controller. If I unplug the ZIP drive, sysinstall will run fine but if the ZIP drive is attached, sysinstall appears to lock up during the "probing devices" step. Since I dual boot this machine into Windows NT (and I need the ZIP drive for my NT development work), permanently disconnecting the ZIP drive is not an option. I have tried making a custom kernal with the zip device removed, but this did not help either. Is there a way to make this drive work with FreeBSD? Or at least some way to keep sysinstall from locking up?

On 32M system digits is different (0M free RAM and about 60M free swap), but compiling aborts with the same message - "virtual memory exhausted". Next, I run GIMP and tried to load very large image.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! I am working on some specs for a machine I am going to build, and I have been unable to resolve the following 3 concerns. I would really appreciate some input from others who may have stumbled across similar issues. 1) The system will never be used for X or any other graphical application, I would like to keep costs down by using a very basic VGA card. Is there a major difference in system performance if I used a ISA card instead of a PCI card? Is there a minimum specification that should be observed? 2) When selecting RAM, does parity vs. non-parity memory affect the system in any way (stability, performance, etc.)? 3) What differnces exist between MMX and non-MMX CPU's of the same speed (with regards to FreeBSD)? Which is prefered? Thanks!

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG There is a web page up at http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Network/5601/ which is running a "OS Wars" vote. The idea is to generate some money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. You "vote" for your favorite OS by pledging some money. The current list of OS's include MacOS, OS/2, Windows, Linux, BeOS, JavaOS, and even AmigaOS (each represented by their own icon, with a URL pointer to the "home" for that operating system.). There's one additional catagory for "UNIX"... I thought "Well, if Linux is there then I'd be happy to donate a few "votes" to see FreeBSD in the list too". And thus, my question. Is there someone who needs to approve putting up the FreeBSD icon on a web page such as this one? I thought I remembered a web page which showed various FreeBSD icons fit for web pages, but in a quick look thru www.freebsd.org I couldn't find it. And then I got to thinking, maybe I'm supposed to get advance approval for something like this anwyay. So, I'm not requesting that anyone here donate money, but if I'm willing to donate some money then what icon would be the best one to use for that page, assuming no one objects to it's usage? --- Garance Alistair Drosehn Senior Systems Programmer Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 27 15:29:56 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA26261 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 15:29:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from grizzly.fas.com (chs0263.awod.com [208.140.97.23]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA26223 for ; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 15:29:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from stanb@awod.com) Message-Id: <199804272229.PAA26223@hub.freebsd.org> Received: by grizzly.fas.com ($Revision: 1.37.109.23 $/16.2) id AA060926169; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 18:29:29 -0400 Subject: ppp and routeing table help, please.

I have a home network that is happily working and gatewayed to the internet using a FreeBSD machine and ppp. This machine of course is the default gateway for all of the boxes on this network. I have another box on this network that I can dial inot and start ppp. I do ths from a FreebSDS lpatop. This works great and I can access all of my home network, and on out to the world like this.

I have the laptop configures so that it becomes an active member of the work network, and then I can still dial out from it to my home network.

Ah, the version in -current is essentially the same :-/ I've been doing a lot of work recently on ppp in the MP branch. It's getting to a reasonable stable state now, but I noticed lots of stuff while I was there - the select() stuff is quite different now, and the -current version leaves lots of room for errors (it's possible for example that the modem file descriptor is closed after it's added to the FD_SET and before the select() is done - producing the sort of error you mentioned). It won't be long now before the MP branch stuff gets rolled back into -current - I think it works client-side, but I can't test 'till I get it working server-side :-) I would have though the best way to do the client-side dial back is to have a ppp.linkup that says annex: quit all That way, once authentication is complete, ppp quits. This works in the MP branch, but I suspect the command may be ignored in the -current version :-( You could always do a quick fix to the QuitCommand() function in command.c.... > Thanks for your help! > > Cheers, > -- > Jos Backus _/ _/_/_/ "Reliability means never > _/ _/ _/ having to say you're sorry." > _/ _/_/_/ -- D.

In another thread, someone reports that the user guide recommends locating /tmp and /var on /usr. I believe I've seen recommendations to supply users' home directories in the /usr partition, too. (The default installation script sets you up without a /home partition.) What's the rationale for this? Isn't readonly /usr (and /, if possible) a Good Thing anymore?

Unfortunately, I have some people getting ahold of some inappropriate material and I'm wondering if there's any way to get an ip address.

I believe it depends on the settings. I've been able to take a drive from a 2940 and use it on a 1540 successfully, so I'd imagine it's possible to go the other direction. Obviously, you might have problems if the controllers are configured differently, but that is true even if you swap out the same model. Look for settings like the >1GB translation setting, and see if changing them has any effect.

You may have to place /tmp or /var on user if you have a prexisting file system that starts running out of space. By default /var partition is mounted on /var and /tmp directory is mounted on /. Different unices do things differently as far as the hierarchy go. /usr is only writable by root by default. Root owns /usr by default. If I was insistent on adding a directory under /usr and I was root. I would not want to be bothered by a perms issue. That is to say, I think /usr being writable by root and root only is sane. Feel free to change it if your philosophy differs. By default /home is linked to /usr/home to provide compatibilty with other unix hierarchies. if you think there should be a seperate /home partition and file system, feel free to make one. I am of a mind that user land things go in /usr but I was weaned on FreeBSD so it is not unfamiliar to me. As a side note, IRIX puts home directories in /usr/people by default. Unix flavors abound. The core developers had to pick one way of doing things. This is the way that they chose. It does not prevent you from using your own experience to configure your system.

This machine has an 8.4gig IDE drive and a 4gig UW Seagate attached to an Adaptec 2940UW. The machine has 64mb of RAM, with a plain intel P166. When a user is doing some large writes to partitions mounted via NFS on the local machine (using amd.. I am not sure why the linkfs option is not working although the same maps work on other machines) the machine nfs server will hang and eventually the whole machine crashes and reboots. In the logs I only have messages like these: Apr 27 12:19:38 kamidake /kernel: nfs server kamidake.apricot.com:/extra3/home/p omru: not responding Apr 27 12:22:23 kamidake /kernel: nfs server kamidake.apricot.com:/extra3/home/z ed: not responding .... some stat messages from popper edited out ...

Apr 27 19:58:27 kamidake /kernel: Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc. I had already (before this) increased MAXUSERS to be 20. Is this indeed the problem? Should I up MAXUSERS again? If so, how far? Right now I am going to up it to 40 since the machine should have more than enough resources to handle the extra space that entails. Another annoying problem is that when the machine crashes, it does not come up all the way. Yes, the it comes up, fscks the partitions since it did not shut down gracefully, it then says it could not remount / since it was dirty and sits waiting for me to to tell it what shell to use. Did it not used to, if it fsck'd /, reboot then to do the remount?

(excuse my ignorance) THe idea is to keep the /usr partition quiet, with nothing writing to it, except for software updates. Then /usr can me mounted readonly for normal use. Thus rogue kernels, system crashes due to power outages, coffe spilt on keyboard, etc, will not corrupt /usr. Backup demands are eliminated, except for one copy.

It might be simpler to just move the /var/ftp directory. (Direct attack on the presumed villain.) If /home has space, /home/ftp could be a win. Other Unixes start it off there. Besides copying the stuff with the tar pipes, you will need to change user ftp's home directory to match (with vipw or chpass). Oh, on those pipes, it is often prudent to include tar's -p switch, which preserves permissions and ownerships. dave -- <----. mailto/pgpfinger: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Crathva fxrjre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 27 22:01:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA13837 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:01:45 -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 WAA13817 for ; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:01:39 -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 WAA14422; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:01:37 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199804280501.WAA14422@implode.root.com> To: scanner@apricot.com cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: lockups on machine with NFS writes to itself..

No. Use anything you want. text-only is so easy as to be an indetecible load on a system. I'm assuming that almost nothing will be going to the console. If you're trying to save money, this is not a big savings, really. Of course, an old basic VGA card from the dumpster is $0. > 2) When selecting RAM, does parity vs. non-parity memory affect the system > in any way (stability, performance, etc.)? Most definitely. Selecting a motherboard that supports not just parity, but ECC (error correcting) memory should be a high priority. A machine without at least parity detection should not be considered reliable. They're for toys. The more memory, the more you need ECC. I have a sneaky feeling that an awful lot of crashing W95/WNT boxes can be explained by the cheap hardware in them, in particular the use of huge amounts of memory without any parity checking at all. There is no real performance difference, except that a machine with undetected memory errors will do unpredictably evil things. Don't let a vendor BS you on this. > 3) What differnces exist between MMX and non-MMX CPU's of the same speed > (with regards to FreeBSD)? Which is prefered? Many say that MMX is a kind of snake oil. Since you are not planning on doing multi-media, and since the gcc compiler, to my incomplete knowledge, does not generate MMX instructions, (perhaps one could code them in assembler), I would say that this doesn't matter. > Dan > dan@sns.org Dave -- <----. mailto/pgpfinger: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Crathva fxrjre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 27 22:48:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA23017 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:48:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mauibuilt.com (mauibuilt.com [205.166.249.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA23009 for ; Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:48:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from puga@mauibuilt.com) Received: (from puga@localhost) by mauibuilt.com (8.8.5/8.6.12) id GAA00863 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 06:07:13 -1000 (HST) From: Richard Puga Message-Id: <199804281607.GAA00863@mauibuilt.com> Subject: RICO CDR To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 06:07:12 -1000 (HST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL25 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a RICOH CDR model RO-1420C Has anyone gotten this to work with FreeBSD?? booting dosent see it as worm0 and before I muck with worm.c again I would like to get some advice on what to change in worm.c and if anyone has used this specific CDR..

(there is a brief period of disk activity.) The out of mbufs message will not appear for a while yet. It is curious that this seems to only happen with NFS partitions mounted on the same machine. Although the machine is locked up (all my prompts have stopped responding) it still responds to pings with no delay at all. I am going to try upping the mbuf clusters again. Note, the test I am doing is to the UW seagate drive attached to the Adaptec 2940UW controller. (Although these writes work fine is I go to the same disk, except give the local path that involves no NFS for writing (but does use it for reading.) > >Did it not used to, if it fsck'd /, reboot then to do the remount? > In the 4.3BSD days, yes. 4.4BSD has the ability to re-mount the root > filesystem without rebooting.

It is true that the MMX instruction set itself is rarely used, and thus does not contribute to system performance much. But the Pentium MMX CPU's have, apart from the MMX instructions, an increased L1 cache size, which makes them faster (~10%) for non-MMX instructions also. If you are opting for an Intel CPU, there is no choice anyways, as non-MMX-Pentiums are not sold anymore. -Hans To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 02:23:32 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA03158 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 02:23:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from discover.wright.edu (discover.wright.edu [130.108.128.35]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA03134 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 02:23:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from s024bac@discover.wright.edu) Received: from anubis..wright.edu (rs228027.resnet.wright.edu [130.108.228.27]) by discover.wright.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id FAA26354 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 05:23:25 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <000201bd7286$ed02a6c0$1be46c82@anubis..wright.edu> From: "Don Muerte" To: Subject: a little help for a moron.

I've very closely followed the example on the doscmd's manpage. I've created minimalisitic /etc/doscmdrc saying: X11_FONT=fixed assign A: /dev/rfd0.1440 1440 assign A: /dev/rfd0.720 720 assign hard /u/doscmd/disk_c 30 I've touched the /u/doscmd/disk_c file and made it world readable and writable. I've also created bootable DOS floppy, put it in the floppy drive (A) and started doscmd -b -x. I've received (on the terminal I've started the doscmd) following messages: martin@woody:/u/doscmd# doscmd -x -b Init: 0 Unknown interrupt 15 function 4101 Unknown interrupt 15 function 87ee Finally the doscmd window came up showing DOS prompt. I've started fdisk from the floppy, selected 'Create DOS partition ...' and then 'Create Primary DOS Partition'. After that fdisk said: No space to create DOS partition There is about 200MB free on the partition i which the /u/doscmd/disk_c file resides. I've tried couple more tricks, like zeroing the /u/doscmd file to the requested size, vnconfiging it and trying to access it through /dev/rvn0c. None of them helped. What I'm doing wrong?

I think you're experiancing one of the bugs in the NFS code - I recall seeing this when mounting client/server on the same machine and using NQNFS. If it only happens when you mount the server on itself, then I'd recommend not doing that. :-) -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 03:18:33 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA12297 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 03:18:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mrelay.jrc.it (mrelay.jrc.it [139.191.1.65]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA12286 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 03:18:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dirk.vangulik@jrc.it) Received: from mda00.jrc.it (mda00.jrc.it [139.191.7.10]) by mrelay.jrc.it (LMC5688) with ESMTP id MAA07951; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 12:18:05 +0200 (MET DST) Received: (from dirkx@localhost) by mda00.jrc.it (8.8.5/8.8.5) id MAA19848; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 12:18:50 +0200 (CEST) Date: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 12:18:49 +0200 (CEST) From: Dirk-Willem van Gulik X-Sender: dirkx@mda00.jrc.it To: Lanny Baron cc: "Rick C.

Just follow the steps one by one, and things should start to work. At http://www.nl.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook85.html The section headered 'Trying it out' Has a subsection 'It produced the ``staircase effect.''' Which should help. There is also a pointer in the FAQ to much the same solution.

Short of installing SAMBA and using NT tools, is there any way to transfer NTFS trees over the local wire to our new FBSD boxen? I was under the impression that NCFTP could do recursive ftp sessions, but it seems to fail if there is not a current directory structure in place PRIOR to initiating the transfer. Since we are attempting to mirror roughly 7gb of FTP and 4gb of W3 trees, manual mirroring is NOT an option! TIA! J.A.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, First I would like to say 1000 thank yous for FreeBSD. It's a fascinating set of systems, and has done a lot to get me interested in Unix-like systems again after some bad experiences with Redhat. I have managed to painlessly configure terminal access, ISP dialup and XFree86, and have even installed Netscape by downloading and typing "make install" However, I am having the same problem when trying to compile many of the ports, so I thought you might be able to explain the problem. When I do a "make install" in /usr/ports/(category)/(program name) it successfully downloads the port and begins to install it, but often (not always) stops with an error when it reaches:- imake -DUseInstalled -I /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config Imakefile.c:8: Imake.tmpl:No such file or directory imake:Exitcode 33 Please excuse any syntax errors above, but I hope you get the general idea. I've searched the mailing lists and handbook (which i have printed out) with no joy. Maybe I need to install extra src files or something? I would like to end by saying thanks again for opening my eyes up to a whole new world in OS'es. The others can carry on playing with win95/98 while I can deal with solvable problems. eg. no blue screen with FATAL EXCEPTION AT ADDRESS 00EA:0099FFHH - haha. My best regards, and good luck with future releases, Niall Martin - niall-m@post2.tele.dk ps. I am trying to successfully network my BSD box with an NT server, using the BSD box as a proxy. It's going ok so far - would a doc regarding this be a good idea as there is nothing in the handbook?

I have two question then I'll describe my system. 1. I tried installing FreeBSD on a drive by itself configured as the master drive on the secondary IDE channel. I got the msg 'PANIC, cannot mount /root' or something like that. When I switched the drive to be the master on the primary channel and reinstalled it worked. Please let me know if what I was trying to do is allowed and if so what did I do wrong? 2. I cannot find any instructions in my 1750+ page FreeBSD manual on how to configure Booteasy. I would like to have a choice of booting Win NT (located in an NTFS partition of the master drive on the primary channel), Win95 (on a FAT32 partition of the master drive on the primary channel), or FreeBSD (located on its own partition on the master drive on the secondary channel). Please advice on how this can be accomplished. My system is as follows: IBM 6x86MX-233 processor, AMI Win BIOS (revision date ?? I'd need to reboot now), TX PRO choppiest (generic), Popgun motherboard ?? w/sound, VideoLogic GraphixStar 600 PCI 2MB, Seagate Medalist Pro 6.5GB as master on the primary channel divided into two partitions of equal size NTFS/FAT32, 24X generic ATAPI CD-ROM as slave on the primary channel, Quantum fireball ST series 3.2GB as master on the secondary channel FreeBSD partition, Mitsumi ATAPI CD-R as slave on the secondary channel, MS bus mouse, no network, no other cards, 96MB SDRAM, 1MB L2 cache, and an HP Deskjet 400 printer. My BIOS allows me to boot off any IDE device including CD-ROMs (FreeBSD didn't boot but Win NT 4.0 Workstation did) As you may have noticed I said that FreeBSD installed ok on the primary channel, but later I said it was on the secondary channel, and that is correct. I had to switch my drives back after ruining 3 CD-R disks. For some reason what works for FreeBSD does not work for my CD-R software (Adaptec Easy-CD Pro 95). I have not yet tried rebooting FreeBSD to see if it will now work. Thank you for your help. Wm.

It runs well and several people have ported other software, like Sun's JWS 2.0a. On the other hand, the Java ICQ is still very buggy. This is on all versions of Java in Linux and BSD's. (Reconnect is not yet implemented.) If you read Mirabilis' newsgroups, you will see the *many* complaints. But I do have to say that some have had ICQ work fine for them. Patrick Gardella P.S.

I have another question though. I just can't get my NT workstation to access the NFS /usr volume on my FBSD. I'm using Humming bird client for NT and it works elsewhere, I can see the volume when browsing and I can mount it but can't write to it. The exports file is configured correctly according to the default installation, I just changed the host names. However the question is, I have the O'Reily book on NFS/NIS and it does not seem to be compatible with the available configuration files on my BSD, at least not the way the exports file is configured or others as well, do you have any info about that, by the way I also had problems with NIS, where I could not use the YP commands because according to the error returns, it can not find a server to bind, although the NIS server was running. It's removed now. I have the auto mounter AMD running, plus DNS and sendmail. Thanks Sam Ossama Sam Ghalyoun Network Engineer RENAISSANCE WORLDWIDE, INC.

I can access the device just fine as /dev/cd0c as if it is a cdrom drive, but every attempt to use "cdrecord -scanbus" or "cdrecord dev=0,6,0 ..." fails. I looked at the README.xxxBSD with cdrecord and it makes reference to /dev/su-*-*-* files, but the .../conf/LINT file makes seems to depricate these drivers. There is a "worm" device.

If you're using one of DPT's own external casings (or a DEC StorageWorks casing, apparently [which according to one rumour I've heard is just an OEM manufactured DPT casing]), then disk changes will automatically be detected (and rebuild initiated). Rebuilding onto a "hot spare" will be initiated automatically regardless of how and where the disks are mounted (since it requires no disk swap). For "serious" housekeeping on the array you an always use the DOS version of DPT's StorageManager software, but that should hardly ever be necessary except during initial installation. PS: For the record, I have never actually used a DPT controller under FreeBSD. I have just acquired one one loan from a supplier with the express purpose of doing this - I would also be quite interested in hearing the experiences of anyone else with using DPT RAID controllers under FreeBSD. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 08:45:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA18568 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 08:45:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dove.peace.com.my (peace.com.my [202.184.153.15]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA18557 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 08:45:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from panda@peace.com.my) Received: from lovebox (love.com.my [202.184.153.17]) by dove.peace.com.my (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id XAA05318 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 23:27:33 +0800 (SGT) Date: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 23:27:33 +0800 (SGT) Message-Id: <3.0.32.19980428234927.009087d0@peace.com.my> X-Sender: panda@peace.com.my X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: chas Subject: Which file to edit/delete for rebuilding ports ? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just tried installing the xfree86 port on a new system and after running 'make install' and choosing the servers to build, nearly 2 hours of compilation completed before an error occured. If I try 'make install' again, the compilation occurs without giving me the option to choose which servers... ie. with exactly the same configuration as the first attempt. And so, it will fail again. In the past with other ports, I have deleted the contents of the /work directory and rebuilt from scratch. However, it would be a shame to have to recompile the 2 hours of files that did compile correctly. I edited /work/xc/xmakefile and /work/xc/config/cf/site.def without desired results. Bottomline : wondering how to force a 'make install' to forget previous configurations whilst still being able to use any intermediary files compiled.

The Linux version of WordPerfect is a very good word processing package. If you want spreedsheet packages that work better than those included in office suites try NeXs or XESS. Check www.ais.com and www.xess.com Hope that this helps.

You > can't imagine my joy. :) When you select something (whether using click&drag, double-click[&drag], triple-click[&drag] or click&shift-rightclick), the selected text is automatically and immediately copied to the global cut buffer and the selection named PRIMARY. This is (AFAIK) default behaviour for X apps. If you select text and then click again, the selected text remains in the cut buffer, but the PRIMARY selection is once again empty. If you paste using the (usually) middle button, then xterm (and many other X apps) will first try to paste from the PRIMARY selection, then from the cut buffer. However, it seems that Netscape _only_ tries to paste from the PRIMARY selection. No, I didn't know any of this... ;-) But when I read your posting I thought "Hello, I've never tried to click again after selecting...", and then I did a little reading through man pages and the like... See, for instance, the section on POINTER USAGE in xterm(1). -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 09:24:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA27985 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 09:24:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pollux.loco.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA27962 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 09:24:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from listread@bedford.net) Received: (from listread@localhost) by pollux.loco.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA07331; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 12:02:24 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from listread) Message-Id: <199804281602.MAA07331@pollux.loco.net> Subject: Re: Hardware Concerns.

The file must already exist, with the correct size. eg, for a type 30 disk, your disk_c file should be 55931904 bytes in length. You did say you alredy zeroed the file to the correct size, but you may want to check. If this still fails, try giving a specific C/H/S value for the disk, and creating the correct size, eg: assign C: /u/doscmd/disk_c 1600 8 8 dd if=/dev/zero of=/u/doscmd/disk_c bs=1m count=50 I've had some weird results in the past with fdisk not liking certain H/S values, so perhaps that's the problem. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 09:41:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA02557 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 09:41:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from xcf.berkeley.edu (scam.XCF.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.43.201]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA02529 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 09:41:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nordwick@xcf.berkeley.edu) Received: (qmail 28499 invoked by uid 27268); 28 Apr 1998 16:42:45 -0000 Date: 28 Apr 1998 16:42:45 -0000 Message-ID: <19980428164245.28498.qmail@xcf.berkeley.edu> From: Jason Nordwick MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: chenj@netra.nju.edu.cn Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: my ps/2 mouse can not work In-Reply-To: chenj@netra.nju.edu.cn on 4/28/1998 to questions@FreeBSD.ORG <35459F98.3AF5@netra.nju.edu.cn> References: <35459F98.3AF5@netra.nju.edu.cn> X-Mailer: VM 6.32 under Emacs 19.34.1 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG chen jian, on Tue 4/28/1998, wrote the following: > > hi: > > when I start my xwindows,it said that my mouse is busy,when I reboot > my computer with -c option,I see that my ps/2 mouse conflicts with sc0 > device,how can I resolve it? > That conflict is fine.

Okay, well, I guess I go back to figuring out why AMD is not using linkfs on my FreeBSD machines (I figure it is something simple.) Okay. Cool.

What version of ncftp ? ncftp3 lists a bug as "Directory caching and recursive downloads depend on UNIX-like behavior of the remote host." The ncftp3 man pages also says that get -R will only work for some hosts, but put -R should work for all (dont ask me).

Since we recieved so many replies to our initial query regarding how to accomplish a recursive file transfer, I thought it best to thank everyone who responded at the same time: Many thanks. I thought the list as a whole maight be interested in the final "tally" and resolution: Number One Recommendation: MOXFTP. Don't know if this works or not. Although it presented with the most recommendations, they all came after the issue had been resolved with a tool only suggested by a *single* respondent, (see below). Number Two Recommendation: SAMBA/RUMBA. As I said in my post, we were very seriously considering this very course if there turned out to be no other way. My main concern with this route was that (besides being pretty massive overkill) SAMBA is a kernel land "fix". RUMBA turns out to be userland, although I didn't know that till this A.M.. Number Three Recommendation: FTPTOOL. Didnt try it, as this machine is to be a dedicated FTP server, and I don't want to install X11, or any other unnecessary software on a box that will have ONLY [character-based] pty access. Number Four, withonly a single recommendation, and the tool that we used *VERY* successfully: WGET. This is a real gem of a tool! Not only does it literally suck everything in sight, it logs it all as well! Besides that, it uses ALL available bandwidth (at least here), making it FAST. The ONLY problem/inconvenience I found is it's propensity to use the URL as the destination root directory - and judging from how well this thing appears to have been thought out, this is probably just me missing something on my quickie documentation scan!

One issue I ran across immediately was the use of FTP and WWW (client). After reading the manpage, it seems that there are a lot of things that it doesn't do which the Linux version (ipfwadm) allows. But in either case, I'm wondering if there are plans to extend BSD's... and what approach might be commonly used to address the need for using ports >1024 on a machine for which you want to use packet filtering (not as a "firewall" per se, but to be host-based security).

I'm very interested in this as well, but I'm on 2.2.6. I picked up an 8-port 100Mbps (only!)-: hub for $100 from one of the web auction houses and want to connect my home boxes which have 100Mbps interfaces: x86 with FreeBSD and hopefully BeOS soon. But I've also got some old Suns and a laptop with 10Mbps interfaces which I can't afford to upgrade. Total of about 10 systems on a pair of 10Mbps minihubs right now. My plan is to split the net with the 100Mbps machines on the 100Mbps hub, and the 10Mbps boxes on the 10Mbps hub. I'll of course need to get traffic to flow across both. I was thinking I could put a 10Mbps and a 100Mbps card in my box which already dials my ISP 24x7 and let it move the packets to the right place. I'm looking for advice for how to get them from net to net. I've got a /240 subnet from my ISP. I'd really prefer not to subnet this into two /248s and lose two more addresses in the process. I'd also like to avoid dealing with gated If I can. Is there some simple bridging SW? I didn't find anything in the ports. If there is, what kind of HW do I need to support bridging at this speed? I don't need packet filtering and other firewall functions here, but if something like Drawbridge is the easiest thing to make work, I can do that. As long as it also will let me talk out the PPP interface to the world. Thanks a lot.

Most likely you don't have a disk in the slave position on the primary controller. This leads to a conflict between what disk the boot blocks thinks it's booting from and what the kernel thinks it's booting from after the devices are probed. Here is my boilerplate solution for this: If you get the message: panic: Cannot mount root At the end of the probe sequence you should either: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other parameters unchanged). > 2.

That shouldn't cause any problems, but if it does make sure your jumper settings for master/slave are correct. Or try moving the windows disk to the slave position on the primary controller and the FreeBSD disk to the master. Most likely one disk is a horrible master and is slowing down the data xfer. This is why I don't like IDE for this type of thing.

I would suggest familiarizing yourself with the installation filestructure and documentation _before_ installing a system. If you have the 2.2.2 cdrom, it's on there. The 2.2.2 release directory is not on the main ftp site now for a reason. So, if you don't have the cd, upgrade to 2.2.6.

If you do that, then you have to create a magic list somewhere of directories to filter out, and I **KNOW** that will bite someone trying to recover a busted system. Mount is like format -- it assumes you know what you're doing.

It's assumed the sysadmin knows what they're doing, otherwise they wouldn't be the sysadmin. :) The mount syscall is one of the more powerful (and dangerous) commands in the system -- use with care.

Whenever someone posts a question here about what RAID controllers are supported, the standard answer is "DPT". Now, by my understanding, the way those are set up is something like this: You have a bunch of drives in a box. They are all plugged into the RAID controller. The RAID controller is plugged into a slot in the computer. The operating system must specifically support that RAID controller. That arrangement strikes me as rather inflexible and prone to compatibility problems. It seems better to do it this way: You have a bunch of drives in a box. They are all plugged into the RAID controller, which is also mounted in the box. The RAID controller makes the array appear as a single large SCSI device, and is connected to any standard SCSI controller in the computer. The operating system only needs support for whatever SCSI controller is used. So... Am I right that this is a better way to do things, or is there something important that I am missing? Does anyone have any experience with hardware of that design that they can recommend?

I was hungry. :) By default the keyboard mappings don't treat the ALT key as a special key. ALT-F sends 'f'. If you were expecting ESC-'f', change your keyboard mapping for the left-ALT key (scandoce 056) from 'lalt' to 'meta'. That'll make it send an escape character in front of the letter. If you were expecting ж (an 'f' with the high bit set), go down the "ALT" column on your keymap file and set the high bit on all the characters. (run "kbdcontrol -d" to dump the current keymap. run "kbdcontrol -l mapfile" to load a modified one) -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 28 15:39:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA27718 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 15:39:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dreamer.dreamfire.net (qmailr@dreamfire.net [209.160.21.220]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA27696 for ; Tue, 28 Apr 1998 15:39:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sean@dreamer.dreamfire.net) Received: (qmail 789 invoked by uid 500); 28 Apr 1998 22:37:11 -0000 Date: Tue, 28 Apr 1998 15:37:11 -0700 (PDT) From: Sean-Paul Rees To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Programs that work with FreeBSD???

The external RAID controller is what you're referring to, and is certainly a viable solution and OS independent. However, for a variety of reasons, an in-cabinet solution is nice. Generally speaking, the custom/non-external RAID controllers tend to be faster, although this is not absolute.

My configuration would be completely irrelevant to you as the configuration is based on a) chipset b) screen size c) refresh rates and several other things. Get the specs from IBM for these things and you will know what you need. The best advice I can offer you is to search for an XF86config file from the various Linux (not much in FreeBSD land on this front) sites that are out there, thats where I got my original version from when I was completely lost on what to do.

Interpreted, but it can go to Win32 without killing you. lesstif: a little better than raw X or Xt programming, but I don't have enough experience to comment further. The only toolkit listed that lives under Xt, if you have any other Xt widgets you want to use, though Qt and gtk+ have a limited ability to have Xt childeren, I *THINK* (never tried it, so I'm not sure). Qt: Not freely available for non-freely available projects, but designed to be object oriented from the ground up. Will soon have drag-and-drop. With a commercial license, can be recompiled for Win32. The one thing I don't like about Qt is that it was originally a you-manage-it toolkit, where you did everything by pixel placement. They have geometry management now, but it still feels awkward, almost an afterthought. gtk+: GPL (or is it LGPL?) toolkit, Not quite as mature as the rest, but coming along well. What impresses me the most about gtk+ is that the bindings for various languages tend to feel right for that language, though not perfect. You can even use gtk-- (C++ bindings for gtk+, much more than just a thin wrapper) and subclass widgets at the C++ level and the bindings automatically translate them into correctly subclassed gtk+ widgets, quite a trick, really.

My system boots up successfully from the floppy and I am presented with three options: 1. Skip kernel configuration and continue with the installation 2. Start kernel configuration in full screen visual mode 3. Start kernel configuration in CLI mode I select the second option and configure the kernel: Floppy at IRQ6 (default - not edited) IDE hard drives at IRQ 14 and 15 (default - not edited) Sony CDROM at IRQ 5 address 0x340 (I do edit the default settings to these values) PS/2 Port mouse IRQ 12 I remove all the network devices, no network card on my system I keep all the COM and LPT ports, except LPT2. The IRQs COM1 - IRQ 4 COM2 - IRQ 3 LPT1 - IRQ7 I keep all the PCI devices because it won’t let me remove them. I then select "Q" to save and quit. The system spins the floppy for a second and then hangs! So I don’t know if the new kernel has been written to the disk (I doubt it). When I reset/reboot the system, it boots from the floppy and searches for and tries to load drivers for devices I remove previously. When I select option 2 again, I see the original kernel choices. This leads me to believe their is a problem? (Nope, my mom didn’t raise no fool!) My system is a P-133 from Gateway with 32MB of RAM and the hardware described earlier (obviously). I know you have just released FreeBSD v2.2.6 but this version should work also. What should I do? Should I just select option 1 and just follow the Novice installation and hope for the best? Any help would be greatly appreciated. (The small booklet that came with the CDROM is not much help.

I usually waste an evening or two on getting X right, aligned, right timings. So their demo caught me by surprize. Also a good source is the pao page (www.jp.freebsd.org/PAO) which has quite a few PCMCIA configs and example configs of machines. By the way, we have a 535 here and it works just fine.

Now, by my > understanding, the way those are set up is something like this: [ Discussion of host-based versus SCSI-to-SCSI RAID deleted ] I've seen many variations on this discussion, and I must admit that I don't know the "correct" answer - if there is one. For the other side of the argument, see: http://www.dpt.com/hstvscsi.htm They (obviously) promote a host-based solution. The two arguments they give in favour of this are, in summary: * Host-based is manageable from the host (or remotely, if the host is networked). * Host-based is faster. The second argument might be very valid in certain configurations. (Then again, RAID is not really about speed, but abour redundancy.) The first argument, however good it may be, is not really applicable to DPT controllers under FreeBSD at present, since StorageManager has not been ported (not even to Linux - I'm not sure about BSD/OS). On the other hand, a DPT controller and a DPT casing form a good all-in-one product, which in a sense offers a single point of failure.

VESA Local bus card. With that combination, the CPU isn't going to be the limiting factor. You would get better performance with more memory, and a faster display board would be of advantage if you're doing heavy graphics. If I had that particular combination, I'd add another 16 MB memory, but that relates to my usage of X (many windows, mainly text).

This procedure is intended only for people who have not created a /var file system (as I suggest earlier in the chapter). It looks to me as if you have done this although you have created a /var file system. The problem now is that you have deleted all the files, and that you can't delete the mount point (/var) because there is a file system mounted on it. You have two options: 1. Put the files back where they came from: # cd /usr/var/ # tar cf - . | (cd /var; tar xvf -) then at least restart syslogd, as described in the text. 2. Forget /var and leave them where they are: # umount /var # rmdir /var # ln -s /usr/var /var Remove the /var entry from /etc/fstab (with an editor). The second option leaves you with a file system floating around with which you can't do too much. On the whole, I'd stick with the first option. If you do, and *after* you're sure it all works, you can tidy up with: # rm -rf /usr/var Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 29 04:39:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA05390 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 04:39:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.hsonline.net (mail.hsonline.net [205.243.33.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id EAA05380 for ; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 04:39:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from zamy27@hsonline.net) Received: from hsonline.net [208.10.214.21] by mail.hsonline.net with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.04) id AED35D800F8; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 06:44:51 -0500 Message-ID: <3546A165.728C0BFA@hsonline.net> Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1998 06:41:26 +0300 From: Scott Myron X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.03 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org" Subject: will this idea work?

I need to monitor a Microsoft IIS server, I have lots of trouble with this one and can not change to FreeBSD due to some special applications. I would like to be able to have cron job that calls a program that checks if this server respond to http requests. I could make bourne script and use "wget" or some other software to retrieve a .html document but I don't want to retrieve a document just se if the server respond to calls on port 80. Is there a perl script that use the "socket" call or some other neat way to fix this, I would be most grateful for any hints or suggestions.

I built FreeBSD access server. I'm using incoming ppp connection & ijppp. I'm using getty to validate login/password pair from user, and then I starting my script at /etc/ppp/ppp-shell for logged users. All networking is OK, the problem begin after disconnecting client from access server. I'm usinng Windows95 PPP. When I do disconnect by pressing Cancel button on MSW Dialup Dialog, all is OK. But if I simply power of my client modem, or disconnect phone line, ppp process for this user locks. It never exit and lock my line & tun interface. This problem may be ppp error or wrong configuration. By the way, I obtain result like this in the following way: telnet to localhost, login under one of ppp user. After that, telnet session automatically closed, and ppp process loops forever. It can't to exit. I tried to compile & install ppp from FreeBSD-current, but unsuccesful. ============================================================== cc -O -Wall -c ip.c In file included from ip.c:30: /usr/include/net/if_tun.h:37: field `tun_rsel' has incomplete type /usr/include/net/if_tun.h:38: field `tun_wsel' has incomplete type *** Error code 1 ============================================================== Tell me if you have any ideas.

Or is that asking for trouble? It should work, yes. The advantage(?) of using dd is that you can specify a blocksize to use in order to speed up the copy.

It all depends on where you want to control things. The problem with 'hardware' RAID is you still need to have a controlling program on your host. The advantage is that it provides the processing off load from the server. I guess something like a Network Appliance gets you away from even that.

This means that you can RAID any drives (SCSI _or_ IDE) merely by configuring your OS to do so. The situation described above sounds to me more like a host-based (hardware) RAID controller. These controllers (e.g. those manufactured by DPT) are basically expensive SCSI adapters which support RAID in firmware. Drives can be mounted both internally or externally to the main server casing, as is the case with SCSI per se. This I've done on Linux, and I'm about to test it with FreeBSD 2.2.6 sometime during the next few days (when I have time :-). The alternative is to do SCSI-to-SCSI RAID, where you have a RAID controller (usually) in an external box with the drives, which then connects to a SCSI controller internal to the server via a SCSI cable. This I've never done. > I guess something like a Network Appliance gets you away from even that. > I've heard a lot of good things about it, but haven't used one myself. I too have heard good things about NetApps servers, and the whitepapers on their web site are very impressive. I've heard that they're extremely expensive, though. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 29 08:03:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA21307 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 08:03:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cybcon.com (root@cybcon.com [205.147.64.49]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA21291 for ; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 08:03:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wwoods@cybcon.com) Received: from cybcon.com (support1.cybcon.com [205.147.76.126]) by cybcon.com (8.9.0.Beta5/8.9.0.Beta5) with ESMTP id IAA01840 for ; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 08:03:34 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <35474163.9BA06643@cybcon.com> Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1998 08:04:03 -0700 From: William Woods X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: News Readers Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just switched from linux to FreeBSD and in linux I was useing NewsPeruser (a X newsreader) and was wondering what is avaliable for FreeBSD?

Yes, this will work. But old time Unix guys will tell you to mount /usr RO. That saves the part of the disk that doesn't need to get touched much, from getting touched. YMMV. I don't do this. Another approach is to use mfs (swap) as your tmp directory. You need to add "options MFS" to your kernel and add: /dev/wd0b /tmp mfs rw,-s=98000 0 0 to your fstab. This works well, and if you have a good amount of swap space (and memory) it's a good use of resources. -- Air travel efficiency would improve if more travelers started going to less popular places.

The main web page is at http://ryeham.ee.ryerson.ca/uClinux/ According to that site, they've got a kernel running, but it only runs hand-crafted programs right now. The "Status" page says: As of Feb 25 1998 The kernel boots on both the XCopilot emulator and on real PalmPilots with a TRG memory board. A patch kit agaist linux-2.0.33 is here. You will need to build and install a complete cross toolchain for m68k-coff in order to build the kernel. User programs need an m68k-pic-coff toolchain, a first pass of a set of patches against gcc-2.7.2.2 is here. Binaries of both toolchains are also available on the FTP site. Everything is still pre Alpha, so consider yourself warned. There has been some work done on the user space compiler and libc, but much more needs to be done. Right now, we have most of libc, but bugs still remain. User space support is getting better every day, but some parts are slow going. The serial driver for the 68328 (the microcontroller used in the PalmPilot) is working quite well, and there is support for the PalmPilot LCD as a console display.

FreeBSD sees two 60-gig SCSI drives. No special drivers needed at all. The external RAID unit hasn't gone down in months. If a drive goes bad, it brings a spare online, recreates the bad drive's data, and blinks an LED on the front panel. While it's recreating parity, we yank the bad drive out, and pop a new one in, which becomes the next hot-spare. All FreeBSD notices is a performance drop for 4 hours or so. The two 60-gig volumes are logical partitions from a 220-gig unit; the other 100 gig is a Netware partition mounted on another machine. -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 Wed Apr 29 10:10:55 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA14755 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 10:10:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from euronet.be (tamna.euronet.be [195.74.193.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA14690; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 10:10:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from yves.holzgen@mba.be) Received: from mba.be (root@i004.bru.euronet.be [195.74.194.8]) by euronet.be (8.8.3/8.8.3) with ESMTP id TAA18936; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 19:10:25 +0200 (MET DST) Received: from pc01.mba.be (pc01.mba.be [192.168.1.101]) by mba.be (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id TAA10030; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 19:12:35 +0200 Message-Id: <199804291712.TAA10030@mba.be> From: "Yves Holzgen" To: Cc: Subject: FreeBSD versus LINUX Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1998 19:10:58 +0200 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet Mail 4.70.1161 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have seen about your site while surfing onto the INTERNET site (WWW.CHEZ.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 I'm trying to get rid of a problem with PC-Pine 3.96 (IMAP mail client). The problem is that it cannot write a lock file in /var/mail due to denied write access. In my inetd.conf file, the imapd is started as root, but ps reveals that the process is owned by the authenticated user, instead of root, once started. Instead of making /var/mail world-writeable, I tried to chown root and chmod u+s imapd, but no success. It keeps taking the authenticated user ID. I tried to chgrp mail imapd also, 'cause the mail group does have write access on /var/mail, and then chmod g+s imapd, but got the same results. What am I doing wrong? If this behaviour is an imapd security feature, What could be the possible security implications in turning /var/mail world-writeable? Thanks in advance. Victor M. Carranza G.

I can dial in OK, get username/password validated, issue the "ppp" command it requires - then nothing.

FWIW, I can connect using user PPP to my ISP just fine (just followed the directions in the handbook -worked first time!) , and can connect to work using W95 and PPP (on the same hardware).

I tend to believe that the vx driver works whith 3C905 chips but not whith 3C905B chips. After all, maybe 3COM had a good reason to change the device number ?

Run it as root, choose "Custom", then "Partition". If you have an already existing partition table on the drive that you don't need, it may be good to write over it (before running /stand/sysinstall) with something like "dd count=500 if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd0". Obviously, you would substitute the proper device file for your particular situation. After you partition, you would put a disklabel in the slice(s) you were using with FreeBSD. I come from the PC world, so the word partition to me means something other than what the FreeBSD people say it means. I hope this helps.

And as root, the system lets you do whatever you want even if you didn't mean it, like accidentally typing `rm -rf /' instead of `rm -rf .' Note that the . and the / key are next to each other :) In addition, it allows the distribution of root-exploit viruses & trojans and other nasty problems that Linux people typically have since they always run as root. If you want root mail to go to you then simply modify the root alias in /etc/aliases. The next question is usually how to allow remote root logins, which is disabled by default to keep people in Botswana from running passwd guessers against it. Lastly, it discourages my favorite security practice: Change the root password to something random, put it in an envelope and tape it to the CPU. Then install sudo and tell people to use that if they need admin access. With sudo you can control what programs people can execute, and see what they've been up to since it's logged. If you ever need the root password, it's there, but as of yet I've never needed to make use of it.

They are all busy servers, and it does depend on where you are and what you're doing.

Yeah, I've done the rc -rf thing accidentally before, but generally it's because of using X and forgetting that I'm on a machine where focus doesn't follow the cursor. The machine that I get email on I don't actually generally login as root unless I'm doing something that I'm going to need root for anyways. And I never login remotely, and now that more windows clients are becoming available for doing ssh logins, I'm never logging in without using ssh even as the normal user on the machine. I have to admit I hadn't thought of just changing the alias, even though I've done that on another machine. That might just make me think about doing it. >The next question is usually how to allow remote root logins, which is >disabled by default to keep people in Botswana from running passwd >guessers against it.

If you ever need the root >password, it's there, but as of yet I've never needed to make use of it. My practices in whether or not I use root tend to vary depending on whether I'm on my home machine or at work. At work I only log into root when I need to, but at home I generally just login as root, and if I manage to trash my machine I trash it, it's not critical that I be able to access my unix partitions at any given moment, so if it takes a while for me to recover it then it does. I've also moved to moving to things like skey on the root accounts for machines that have a higher profile.

Considering that: 1. 2.2.2 is over a year old; and 2. The problem has been remedied in later releases I doubt you'll see any movement into this.

Try removing the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option from your kernel and rebuild. I think there is a math problem with the bounce buffers or something, there's been lots of traffic on it. Poke around in the mail archives for the background and other possible solutions (esp. if you need the bounce buffers for an ISA SCSI card or whatever).

Well, you could wait until a quiet moment (hopefully no disk writes happening), cross your fingers and then hit the reset key. When the Boot: prompt comes up, type in "-s" to boot into single user mode, then mount -u / passwd to change the root password.

There should be quite a few places offering UNIX training where you are; otherwise it means picking up a book on UNIX and working thru' it - there's one written by one of the regulars here, Greg Lehey, that is quite popular (can't quite remember the title, sorry) If you're already familiar with UNIX, you can always ask your questions on the list.

Do you have some leftover pppd's laying around? If they aren't exiting they're taking up ppp devices, and everything will stop if you run out of ppp devices.

Since FreeBSD requires it's own partition, you have to delete, split, or resize a partiton to make room. You'll need a separate utility (FIPS or Partition Magic) to do this.

There is a way of hopping between consoles in software using vidcontrol. Then it's a matter of hopping to each term and running the command.

For a GUI, you'll probably want to use X Windows (aka X11, XFree86, etc.) as it's free, and comes as a distribution with FreeBSD. You'll need a windows manager to use with X. I use AfterStep. You might want to look at http://www.PLiG.org/xwinman to help you decide on what windows manager you'd like to use. For a browser, you can use Netscape. I personally prefer lynx (compiled with slang so that I can see it in pretty colours ;-) ) unless I'm specifically wanting graphic content. You might also want to take a look at what FreeBSD are doing with the Mozilla source at http://www.freebsd.org/mozilla.html. For IRC, I use ircII (currently version 4.4). BitchX has also recently been ported, but I find it a bit too "elite" :-) If you would prefer a GUI IRC client, take a look at zircon or kirc. > I would love some information on what to get etc... Thankyou! You can get information on what I have mentioned, as well as quite a few other dandy things (like how to install them), from http://www.freebsd.org/ports ;-) If you already have the ports collection installed, you'll find the "make search key=blah" command useful. So, # cd /usr/ports # make search key=irc will show you information on all the ports containing the keyword "irc" :) Have fun!

Hmm, error > number 57 appears to be ENOTCONN, which is odd because I would have thought > popper wouldn't even start without a connection (since it's being run from > inetd). I'd check that there are no hung poppers laying around and that the client can connect, or what the cilent gets if it gets an error. ENOTCONN woud come up if the client is bailing just after the connection but before popper gets ahold of it.

Apparently, nothing has been done to the driver since 1996, and it's marked as buggy. :( I had a 3c905 on our server running 10 Mpbs, and it worked OK. After changing to 100 Mbps, I got 1 (one!) Mbps from a Solaris machine, and had to run most other fbsd workstations on 10 Mbps for anything to work. Worked fine in cooperation with windows machines w/ the same NIC, though. Anyway, I threw it out. Now using an SMC, and everything is a OK. /Palle To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 29 15:57:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA26758 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 15:57:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA26618 for ; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 15:56:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA13511; Wed, 29 Apr 1998 15:55:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1998 15:55:55 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: Linda North cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Boot sector modification In-Reply-To: <3544714E.B9EC4D72@afn.org> 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, 27 Apr 1998, Linda North wrote: > I just installed 2.2.6 Release on the second partition of my second > drive.

I think you have to put Booteasy on both disks, so you'll have to install it yourself afterwards by fishing boot.bin and bootinst.exe off the CD or ftp site in /tools and then running bootinst in DOS.

I have a PPro-200 system running 2.2.6-STABLE. The system was last build on the morning of April 18th. I have a generic NCR PCI SCSI card with a Toshiba XM-6201TA 1030 hanging off of it. I am reasonably certain that it is terminated correctly. The setup ran perfectly until last night. I woke up this morning and discovered that my power supply had died.

This automagically comes up when I ifconfig lp0 up: doorstop 192.168.1.1 UH 0 0 lp0 doorstop is 192.168.1.16, and lp0 is ifcofigged like so (precisely): ifconfig lp0 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.16 link0 Is this right?

I have one machine running WinNt40 and the other running FreeBSD connected to one monitor through a data switch the problem is that when I switch from NT to FreeBSD the mouse is ok but the keyboard is dead. At other times the key board is fine and the mouse is dead. My question: is there a way to reinitialize the keyboard other than rebooting? I can telnet in from NT with no problems. thanx in advance Jim James D Fowler Digital Mechanix 8937 N.

I hope someone can help me. I am trying to install FreeBSD and I have some problems. I have the bootdisk, I am trying to install to a 450M partition. I don't know if it's important, the partition contains a caldera linux installation. I wanted install over ftp. I got with the installation to the fdisk stage. I changed the partition type ("slice" as I see in freebsd) from ext2fs to freebsd. Now I have to create on this partition other partitions, root, swap and usr is recommanded. First I tried "Auto defaults for all" but it was not working, I got the "unable to create the root partition. too big?" error message. Then I tried to create manually the partitions but that was not working either. When I try to create the root partition I got an error messsage: "this region cannot be used for yout root partition as the freebsd boot code cannot deal with a root partition created in that location. .. choose another location or a smaller size..." Ok, now I tried to create the swap partion first but I got the same error: unable to create the partition, too big? So, now I don't know what to do. Any suggestions? What am I doing wrong, what could I try to do now? Thanks!

Usually the installer will barf on it, but once the system is installed it won't have a problem. Double check that your master/slave jumper is set correctly and that the cable is in good shape.

There's a number of news readers available. inn rn trn nn tin xrn Some of them come with the distributions, some you need to download the source and compile or maybe install packages. I would suggest using Netscape Communicator's news reader module. Supports threads, graphics, and is easy to operate.

We've got the code in $lib/libc/locate, and I see the data in /usr/share/locale, but so far my few lines of code aren't doing very much. Anyone know how to implement this? I probably should add some pseudo-code so that folks understand what I'm trying...and fumbling with. In main I set the locale to de_DE: ... setlocale(LC_ALL, de_DE); // malloc struct lconv *lp lp = localeconv(); // then attempt to print the struct members: printf ("lp->decimal_point = [%s]\n", lp->decimal_point); printf ("lp->thousands_sep = [%s]\n", lp->thousands_sep); printf ("lp->currency_symbol = [%s]\n", lp->currency_symbol); I realize that several members are initialized to ``empty''; but figured that these would be filled. (??) Next, I try to set the TIME, and with fr_FR: setlocale (LC_TIME, "fr_FR"); puts("...Now using strftime()"); strftime(tbuf, sizeof(tbuf), "%c", localtime(&when)); printf("tbuf = [%s]\n", tbuf); tbuf contains a strictly US English string.

However, after a change in the Linux network software for some other improvements, if I remember correctly, we started having problems. Everything would be fine up to about 250 client connections per box. After that, the OS would become unstable, drop connections, etc. Fixing those problems was a low priority with the Linux folks at the time, so we switched all the Linux boxes to FreeBSD.

It has a near thirty year long history of development. Much of the Internet protocols and netwoking software were developed on BSD. FreeBSD has a central development team that controls what goes into the product and the quality of it. Linux is a very young clone of SYSV UNIX. It is not really an operating system, just a kernel. The libs and other components that make up an operating system come from many developers with out a central centrol mechanism to ensure the quality of the release. It just the kernel that is controlled by one person. It can be argued that there is not one Linux, because of what is included in the various distributions. Each distribution tunes their release to gain competitive edge over the others. While Linux seems to work properly, it remains a patchwork of pieces by a loose group of individuals. From a purist's point of view that is not how an operating system is done. If you need more technical details, you will have to get an answer from someone that can explain the code.

We recently came up against the filesize limitation in an unexpected way. We were trying to copy large files from one machine to another using ssh. Apparently, since sshd is started by a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/, which is invoked by /etc/rc, the class "daemon" limitations were implemented. Thus, we were only able to copy 64M of the files over. This has also affected a script I was running out of cron - a glimpse indexing that was dying because of a malloc failure. I traced this to the same login.conf situation because when I killed and restarted cron as root (rather than having it restarted from /etc/rc), the script ran fine. Now /etc/rc.local is also called from /etc/rc, so I assume the same class "daemon" restrictions apply - is this correct? If so, this is a critical piece of information for everyone running servers because, for example, we start a heavily hit mysqld out of rc.local, and despite any customized settings we have for the user running it, it would be bound by the "daemon" class until we killed it and restarted it as another user. Finally, while we're on the subject of login.conf, is there anywhere with a layman's explanation of all the parameters? If not, could someone put one together? I've read the man pages, but can't glean from them what real world situation many of the parameters would apply to. Some like "filesize" are self-explanatory, but if you're not a programmer, you don't know how to relate the errors you get to "datasize" and "stacksize". E.g., to figure out which setting was giving me the malloc failure, I would have to do trial and error. Thanks for any comments.

However, I don't trust Intel in any way, and I'm not sure that the 486-optimized code will run faster that the 386-optimized one on a Pentium II.

This was what I was looking for a few days ago, since the natd documentation does not mention that ftp (and irc for that matter) are properly handled by libalias (and thus natd supports those two protocols as well). -Hans To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 30 03:44:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA17410 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 03:44:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (www.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id DAA17319 for ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 03:43:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte@webmore.com) Received: from neuron.webmore.com (unverified [194.95.214.189]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 12:40:28 +0200 Received: from neuron.webmore.de (malte@webmore.com) by neuron.webmore.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA00647; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 10:06:52 +0200 (CEST) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.2 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <199804300006.RAA24606@mailsun3> Date: Thu, 30 Apr 1998 10:06:52 +0200 (CEST) Reply-To: malte@webmore.com From: Malte Lance To: Bhaskarpandit (cont-AMKHARE) Subject: RE: Configuring a mouse Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG 1.

The fwtk (Firewall Toolkit) at tis.com has all the needed parts for FTP, Telnet and http proxies. I built them all and used them for about six months. I also built socks. The problem is that socks needs to know your current IP address in order to work. Dynamically assigned ppp addresses make it kind of tricky -- you need a script to edit the socks.conf and restart socks after every change.

I find it *very* difficult to believe you are correct in this. ed0/ed1 are specifically reserved for SMC80xx (as well as others) NIC's. The SMC80xx (we use the 8013's, as does about 1/3rd of the planet who bought em years and years ago...) are *only* available as ISA cars (AFAIK)... What if I want 2 of these NICS in 1 machine? Your assertion would tend to indicate that I would be unable to do this, as I would have to have ed1 filled by a non-ISA NIC. Thoughts, comments, corrections, advice??? J.A.

I got it running using the SCO (ibcs2) emulation. It works great when I'm logged into the machine locally and run sqlplus (or oci applications). The problem arises when I try to use Oracle remotely (like from access using an Oracle 7 driver on my PC). This requires that I have a program called 'tnslsnr' running. I need to have the listener use the TCP protocol. I can't link in the protocol because all of the libraries are SCO and all the object files are SCO. GCC doesn't like that a whole lot. The libraries aren't a big deal. I partially re-wrote the ar command so that it extracts the objects from the SCO libraries. I then re-create a BSD-format library, ranlib it, and it works great. The main problem is the object files. I have tried to find a way to get gcc to link object files to create an executable with no results. I think they are in ELF format. Is this true (maybe COFF)? I don't know a whole lot about SCO... Do I have to re-compile gcc for SCO? Is there a way to compile it so that it will accept SCO objects and create BSD binaries (accecpt one object file type and create a different a.out type)? I would MUCH rather just convert the object files and create BSD binaries. You see, the oracle server and alot of the other binaries can be 're-linked' with other options. The object files (and libraries) are all available to do this. All I have to do is find out 'how.' Can you point me in the right direction? - Steve Steve.Shoecraft@Microchip.COM To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 30 08:13:01 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA22529 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 08:13:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gatekeeper3.monsanto.com (gatekeeper3.monsanto.com [199.89.234.123]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id IAA22522 for ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 08:12:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from GLEN.W.MANN@monsanto.com) From: GLEN.W.MANN@monsanto.com Received: by gatekeeper3.monsanto.com; id KAA07468; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 10:12:46 -0500 Received: from nplxsl01.monsanto.com(164.144.252.39) by gatekeeper3.monsanto.com via smap (3.2) id xma006830; Thu, 30 Apr 98 10:12:16 -0500 Received: by nplxsl01.monsanto.com (NPlex 2.0.082); 30 Apr 1998 10:12:15 -0500 To: dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re[2]: Internet Monitoring software Message-Id: <"0430151153-Re2: Internet Monitoring software"@MHS> Date: 30 Apr 1998 11:06:13 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello Doug- Well! A vague question (which was intentional BTW) gets a vague answer (intentional as well I'm sure!). We're thinking about 1) whether or not to monitor internet traffic for liability and security purposes, and 2) how to do it. I suppose we could monitor volume, times and duration of usage, among other things. I've got a FreeBSD box working here, and know if anything is capable of these things, it is. I guess I'm a little new to the admin side of the internet, so I'm looking for any suggestions at all about what it takes to do these things, and if FreeBSD is a good choice.

Is it a *.tar.gz or *.tgz or *.tar.Z, or is it maybe a RedHat package (*.rpm) file? If the latter, then you need to install rpm on FreeBSD - it's in the ports.

Both are running FreeBSD-stable as of no earlier than a day or two ago. Float is up via PPP, ben is connected to a T1. Float is running ftpd, telnetd and sshd.

Either float's TCP isn't seeing these packets, or it isn't acknowledging them, or the acknowledgements are getting lost somewhere in between. The telnet session gets this far and no further: ben% telnet float Trying 204.180.205.197... Connected to float. Escape character is '^]'. A tech support person from float's ISP reports being able to get a login prompt out of float. I consider myself fairly network-savvy, but could somebody please make a suggestion as to what the bloody hell is going on? Ben is still trying to send those same 27 bytes, and I'm out of ideas.

I hadn't disabled relaying on the machine because of the nuissance it can be with people using pop mail programs to read/send mail, and the machine was being absolutely inundated by some idiot spammer. I'm guessing this was causing sendmail to use up all the networking resources, and as a result popper couldn't make connections (admittadly, this is wild conjecture, I honestly don't know if it could happen). Needless to say, the anti-relay check went int.

It used to be a partial news server running freebsd 2.2.2 and inn 1.4 i think. it had only one scsi hdd. Now we have a ccd drive with interleave factor of 65536 i think (or whatever is recommended by the man page for the news server). I also upgraded the system to ver 2.2.6 and compiled port inn 1.7 Everything seems to be ok at first ,when the system goes into expire stage to expire the articles it doesn't seem to work fast enough:( here is what top says: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 531 root -6 0 20736K 15288K biowai 120:55 19.99% 19.99% expire So I am not sure whether i need to go back to inn 1.4 which ran the expire process in about 10-15 minutes? (this one starts and never finishes). or is it my hdd's not working fast enough? I think if soome would give a hint what that state of biowai means it would help because it seems that most of the time expire spends in this biowai state :( Oh yeah, the hardware is: 2 9Gb seagate baracuda drives(8gb of each is used for ccd drive), ncr scsi controller, 64Mb ram, 233intel pent.

If I'm reading you correctly, the Power Management stuff *should* (not to infer that somebody ought to make it so) allow the drives to idle down and extend the "interrupt timeout" that you mention. A couple of years back, I was playing with one of the first "green machines" I'd ever seen (and it did let the drives spin down). When the disk was hit, it would (often) bark about timeouts, but it was innocuous - the FS integrity was maintained. I hacked (mumble, mumble.... wdc-"something") that extended the timeouts and it seemed to work pretty good for the few days that I was farting around. IIRC, this was, like, a 1.1.5 system. Sorry to be obtuse, but, to my mind, logic would indicate that enabling APM in the kernel would activate an accommodation for spin downs, rather than prevent them from ever happening!?!? ...sjs... -----Original Message----- From: Doug White [mailto:dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu] Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 1998 4:20 PM To: Steve Sims Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Monitoring disk access On Thu, 23 Apr 1998, Steve Sims wrote: > But the problem remains that the disk doesn't ever spin down, even though > all the APM stuff is enabled and the disk is set to spin down after 60 > seconds of inactivity. If you have APM built in then it enables a command in the wdc driver that explicitly disables disk spindown.

If you wanted to look at usage patterns, then FreeBSD hosting a MRTG data collector would be good. MRTG uses SMNP to query routers about traffic seen and generates graphs based on the collected data. It's pretty neat. We have it running here at the University and the usage patters we see out of the residence halls is, well, revealing. If you want to dig deeper, you'll want to run a proxy server, like squid, fwtk, or socks.

I'm not on the list, so I don't know whether my earlier post showed up. By the way, is there anyway to check that? I tried searching for my post, but it wasn't there. How soon do the articles become searchable in the archive? The problem I'm having is that I have this threaded program in which I want to launch an external editor using the system() call. This works fine until the system() call returns. When the call returns, that thread finishes its stack and then exits. When that thread exits, my whole program exits. The rest of my program should be in a permanent while() loop. What's going on here. Is this correct behavior? Am I doing something wrong? Here's an example program that illustrates this: #include #include #include void signal_received(int arg) { printf("signal %d\n", arg); } void* run_system(void* arg) { system("cat /home/peterh/.cshrc"); printf("Hello!\n"); } int main() { pthread_t thread; pthread_attr_t thread_attr; int result; while (1) { result = pthread_attr_init(&thread_attr); printf("pthread_attr_init returned %d\n", result); result = pthread_create(&thread, &thread_attr, &run_system, 0); printf("pthread_create returned %d\n", result); sleep(5); } return 0; } Here's how I compile it: gcc thread.c -lc_r The program totally exits after printing out my .cshrc and 'Hello!'. If I take out the system() call, it will run indefinitely.

A better question is if your network > supports native Multicast or if you need to run mrouted. A few releases of FreeBSD back (I don't know if it's like this now) some Ethernet drivers supported multicast and others didn't.

I checked and the other FreeBSD system I have had the same entry. I have no idea how it got created. I tried to install the worm driver, but it won't find it, no how. I unconfigured "cd0" and it then shows up as "uk0". I finally configured "cd0" in and "worm0" out. I then just tried a variation on what you did and: cd /dev ; ln -s rcd0.ctl scgx This works just fine. Thanks for the help.

So i assume it locates it ok (i didn't specify them in the kernel config file). Also, an 'ifconfig ed1 inet 192.168.0.1' is done. (put in rc.conf) But now, when i try to telnet to it from another machine (local works fine) it cannot connect. Is there any way to test if the card is set up correctly? and if it is, what else could be wrong ? PS. even though i recompiled the kernel, i didn't change much in the config files thank you, FlorizzzZz v.

As long as it also will let me talk out the PPP > interface to the world. I can see two approaches which might be possible with 2.2.6 as shipped on CD: 1. Use NATD on the system you use to connect to your ISP, and use this system as a router between two subnets (say 10.1.1 and 10.1.2, both /0) with static routes. One disadvantage of this would be that only the router would be visible from the internet. 2. proxy arp requests on the "bridge", with host routes specified for all machines attached to the hubs. This is normally impractical with more than a couple of machines, but your situation may be manageable. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

The problem is that i think the FPE thing--linux, e.g., ignores floating piont exceptions but freebsd does not. I haven't tried, but I think you should be able to write a signal handler (like nohup) and wrap it around those 'hacks' to protect them. alternatively, you could (1) igore it (2) write to jwz and persuade him that he really should ignore FPE's in the hacks he includes (3) hack your kernel so it doesn't give sigfpe (4) well, there's lots of stuff you coudl do, few of which are probably worth the trouble. I just use xearth -proj merc -pos random as my 'hack'. Oh... yeah, you can look in /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults/XScreensaver and remove those entries that cause sigfpes. Maybe write to the port maintainer and have him hack this file when it installs the ports the same way. -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 30 16:17:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA10082 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 16:17:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail0.tor.acc.ca (mail0.tor.acc.ca [204.92.54.110]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA09926 for ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 16:16:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from 781185@ican.net) Received: from ican.net (ppp-170.m2-2.dialup.rochester.edu [204.92.7.170]) by mail0.tor.acc.ca (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA15838 for ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 19:16:25 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <354905AA.9F12C2AB@ican.net> Date: Thu, 30 Apr 1998 19:13:47 -0400 From: Chris <781185@ican.net> X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: installation questions Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG '' Hi, I have some problems w/ installation. I am installing freebsd from a dos partition. I have a hard disk set up w/ 2 partitions 1 dos and 1 freebsd. The installation goes fine untill I get to a point where an install.cfg file is requested. I skip this b/c I do not have an install.cfg file to load. how can I obtain this file and/or where can I get the information to create one? That is the first problem. The second is this: After I reboot, freebsd boots but I get an error that reads something like mounted device does not mach specified device mount failed. it then goes on to give me a read-only filesystem Also when freebsd boots I expect to get a login prompt but this does not happen.

I don't have access to anything that runs IPX or talks IPXCP :-( Currently, the tun device only does IP. It would be fairly easy to fix this, but in order to stay compatible, I'd like to add a new IOCTL to put it into ``give me headers'' mode. I've mentioned this a few times on -hackers, but nobody's taken the bait (even Julian E side-stepped it ;). As I say though, the real problem is that I don't have anything that does IPX. I've got one NT box here, and I've got a 2.5" disk with Win95 on it gathering dust, so I guess I could eventually get it up & running..... It's more likely that pppd supports IPX - I've heard talk that it does IPXCP, so assuming the FreeBSD kernel will do IPX through the ppp device.... > Doug White | University of Oregon > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

I have, and you do want to do the fresh install. If you changed/added a lot to your current drive that you want to restore, you can mount it and copy what you need. For an IDE drive with typical partitions (use /dev/sd* for scsi) # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV wd1s1a will make all the slice devices. # mount /dev/wd1s1a /mnt That would mount your old root partition on /mnt # mount /dev/wd1s1f /mnt would mount your old /usr on /mnt Look at /etc/fstab on your existing installation to get the right slice numbers, they'll be wd0 here but will be wd1 when it's the second disk. Oh, the dual boot may change the devices around too (I run everything dangerously dedicated) but making a copy of your current fstab for reference should make it clear what you need to do.

"The Complete FreeBSD" didn't say anything about how to configure the pcm0 and pnp0 devices, so I just took the lines straight from LINT. Nothing worked like that. After browsing the list archives here I noticed a few people saying that they had configured it to use irq 5, and set the flags to 0x15 (if I remember right). When I tried that the soundcard and mixer started working. I'd like to understand why that change made the difference. For example, is irq 5 just what pcm0 needs to use, or does it have to be set to whatever the sound card uses, or ... ? If there's a document that goes into a little more detail on how device configuration works in FreeBSD I'd appreciate a pointer. thanks Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 30 18:45:59 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA01045 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 18:45:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from awfulhak.org (awfulhak.demon.co.uk [158.152.17.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA01014 for ; Thu, 30 Apr 1998 18:45:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from gate.lan.awfulhak.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by awfulhak.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA02408; Fri, 1 May 1998 02:45:39 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from brian@gate.lan.awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <199805010145.CAA02408@awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.1 12/23/97 To: Doug Lo cc: Brian Somers , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Weird ppp problem.

Let's say I have a FreeBSD box setup as the firewall. I alias the ip address, so the NIC has a real IP address, and 192.168.1.1. I then setup the rest of the LAN using 192.168.1.x address, with the 192.168.1.1 set as the gateway for all the win95 machines on the LAN. I recompile the kernel with IPFIREWALL, and IPDIVERT. Set rc.conf's firewall setting to YES, policy to 'open' for testing. edit /etc/service to insert NATD entry, and then start the natd with "natd -log -interface ed1" . I did have the rc.conf GATEWAY setting to YES. But the Network Address Translating doesn't seem to be happening. the alias.log in /var/log is empty. Did I miss something simple, or am I totally clueless here? Is the routing/NAT not working becuase I'm choosing to use a non-routeable address, ie 192.168.x.x? If that's the case, then is the only way to setup firewall is, I can't use any of the reserve address? I suppose I can go to the proxy route instead, but for a general proxy that works with telnet, ftp, www, ICQ, real audio, ie all the typicall goodies a wi95 user would want to run, what should I use? Socks5?

Lots of the FreeBSD supporting software is not under the direct control of the core team either (in fact, it's the same software used by Linux). And the term "not an operating system" is misleading. Many people, including myself, consider the kernel to be the operating system, and the rest just to be support. Having said that, it is correct that you can't just go out and get "the latest version of Linux". You have a choice of a large number of different packagings.

Here's my problem. I run fvwm2 and have buttons and pager at the bottom of my screen (of course, the problem is not restricted to button/pager. That's just where I noticed it). If I'm on a desktop that is otherwise empty, the buttons/pager is noticeably fuzzy, but if I switch to a desktop with some xterms or other stuff, the fuzziness disappears. There seems to be an inverse relationship between bottom-fuzziness and screen-fullness! Also, if I move the buttons/pager toward the top of the screen, the fuzziness diminishes. This may have been going on for a while without my notice, because I used to have the buttons at the side of the screen and rarely would have anything at the bottom of an otherwise empty screen. Anyway, I'm just looking for suggestions. Is it a monitor problem? I don't know how old mine is. It was a hand-me-down gift from a friend: CrystalScan 1024. Video card problem? Graphics blaster MA202 2M RAM < 1 year old. Maybe it's my X-config? I picked this monitor, 31.5, 35.15, 35.5; Super VGA, 1024x768 @ 87 Hz interlaced, 800x600 @ 56 Hz which I think is right, and I chose my card from the list in xf86config. I use the 1024x768 resolution and run x with startx -- -bpp 16 never managed to get any greater color depth to work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

The printer kicked in, but otherwise the entire system came to a halt (even ctrl+alt+delete didn't work.) I have a Mach64 card, so I disabled sio0, sio1, sio2, and sio3. It still didn't work. I'm trying to install from a DOS partition ( C:/freebsd/bin specifically ), and I chose the Novice Installation. The installation stopped ( after I installed the boot manager and set up the FreeBSD partition) telling me that I didn't have a root partition specified, and that I would have to use the label manager to set it as /. Also : I've tried using install.bat from the CD-Rom, and I got this: Booting @ 0x100000 Sorry, can't allocate enough memory! Also, I tried using setup.exe, and chose "Prepare DOS Partition Install". After specifying what packages to include, I got this: BIN.INF : Permission Denied After both of these failed, I went ahead and made a bootdisk, which brings me to where I am now.

You're probably on the wrong forum here. -questions is for problems. For philosophy, you could try -hackers.

I haven't seen anybody recommend /tmp on /usr (and it's a problem if you need /tmp in single-user mode). I recommend /var on /usr to avoid fragmenting disks, but there's nothing holy about it. To CyberPeasant's comments on /home: I'd suggest that this is an omission. > As a side note, IRIX puts home directories in /usr/people by > default. This doesn't win it many friends. Back to CP's questions (sorry this is so poorly structured): I don't really see that ther is a requirement for having /usr a writeable file system. We've discussed a number of varieties in the past, including not having a /usr file system (put it on the root file system), and having an RO root and RW /var. Do you have a particular reason to want it RO?

It's difficult to know without knowing more about the disk. "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm) contains a discussion of how to do this. It's not simple, and using sysinstall is often a more comfortable alternative.

We do local mods to the various utilities as needed, and create an integrated release. Some of the utility software is encumbered with GPL, but so what? If it was a problem for a major class of users in our user base, we would substitute the offending programs. Linus seems to have very little to do, other than peripheral interest with the various GNU tools. He doesn't release them as part of Linux. (RedHat, Debian, Slackware) do release an OS, where they integrate the pieces. It is a technical distinction, but Linux is handled as if the kernel developers were seperate from the rest, and the name "Linux" doesn't really describe the components in the release. Okay, what version of GCC comes with Linux 2.0.31??? :-).

Plus if you remount the old drive at a new mount point (/mnt is good, or /old ...) then you can simply copy your precious stuff to the new. Another thing to consider: there is nothing like a fresh install to remind you of exactly what and where *is* your precious stuff. If you decide to copy, look into "pax -rw", which appears to be the most accurate painless way to move lots of files, devices, links, and symlinks. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

However, I believe I have seen posts to the mail lists by persons knowledgeable in these things that say that the Linux kernel is not an OS. At times these issues are very confusing to us that are trying to learn the right things and seperate the bull from the real differentators between FreeBSD and Linux. I am not trying to give you an argument here as much as to get at what really consistutes an OS. In answering the question as I did, I was trying to provide some information to persons that were switching from Linux to FreeBSD and asking for information on the differences between them, and quite frankly were given bullshit for an answer. Those differences have to have more substance than what works best for you oe some such. People moving from one OS to another need and deserve substantial information on which to base those desisions. If it is the case that the only difference is what works best for you, then you could put Linux and FreeBSD in a bag, shake it and grab one and have the best OS. At that point everything else is just hacker flame wars and bombast. I truly hope that is not the case.

Read what I said: I don't like making this distinction. It doesn't mean it's not valid, but I don't think it's useful. I certainly wasn't picking on you: many people (including John Dyson, for example) agree with you.

A new class c to which I will be moving the machines. Some dialup users who connect via ppp, and have DNS configured for the two old IPs and Mail SMTP/POP servers configured as the old Mail server IP. Is there a way to setup some sort of a static route, where I can assign the old IPs as aliases to these machines on the new class c, and still have the dial up users be able to get DNS and Mail services using the old IPS when they connect and receive one of the new ips. I hope this is clear enough, and thank you for your help in advance. Mark ps. I am able to setup as static route on my router that seem to allow me to telnet into a machine with one of the old ips as an alias, but DNS does not seem to work if I try to get a response using this method.

I have a NT box currently plugged into the master port on the ShareUPS running Powerchute. This box doesn't run 24x7 unlike the FreeBSD boxes ;) Anyway I have been trying to get the UPSd from the ports collection to run on the FreeBSD machines. I have tried a cable as per the spec on http://www.cre8tivegroup.com/upsd.html and the APC cable and none seem to work with my configuration. I have tried using the upsd.conf.sample file, renamed as the configuration file and it says that it cannot switch to smart mode. I have also tried the default config and it says that it fails the self-test. Can someone please enlighten me and if possible send me a .conf that works (privately :) for 240V? Is the 3 wire cable all I need as per the above URL or should I be running with a cable configured exactly the same as the APC one? On another note I've set up the ShareUPS so that it runs till 2 min warning and then it shuts down the UPS so it cycles the power on startup. Is there a way to set up the .conf to make an impossibly large wait for the shutdown time and when the daemon receives the 2 min warning triggers a shutdown. Thanks for the help.

Yes, ppp should probably be newer than 2.2. Someone will probably update it at some point (I heard some rumblings about this), but the big reason that this hasn't happened is because of excellent support of user ppp (which does most of everything that kernel PPP does). If you want to do it and contribute it, you should probably ask around (freebsd-hackers?) to find out if anyone else has worked on it. -- bryan k ogawa http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri May 1 02:25:56 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA22570 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 1 May 1998 02:25:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns2.cetlink.net (root@ns2.cetlink.net [209.54.54.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA22525 for ; Fri, 1 May 1998 02:25:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jak@cetlink.net) Received: from EXIT10 (i485-gw.cetlink.net [209.198.15.97]) by ns2.cetlink.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id FAA01223; Fri, 1 May 1998 05:25:42 -0400 (EDT) From: jak@cetlink.net (John Kelly) To: Wilson MacGyver Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: a question on firewall/proxy Date: Fri, 01 May 1998 09:28:11 GMT Message-ID: <354a81b7.297797094@mail.cetlink.net> References: <199805010155.VAA20507@lymu.cylatech.com> In-Reply-To: <199805010155.VAA20507@lymu.cylatech.com> X-Mailer: Forte Agent 1.5/32.451 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id CAA22531 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 30 Apr 1998 21:55:41 -0400 (EDT), Wilson MacGyver wrote: >Let's say I have a FreeBSD box setup as the firewall.

No, works here. >start the natd with "natd -log -interface ed1" . You seem to have overlooked one item. In my firewall setup, the final lines are: > # NATD > $fwcmd add 150 divert natd all from any to any via $1 > /usr/sbin/natd -u -interface $1 I add a firewall divert rule, and THEN start natd. Although these are the last two lines in my script which set up the firewall rules, "150" on the divert rule puts it first, even though it's added last. THEN I fire up natd. >I recompile the kernel with IPFIREWALL, and IPDIVERT. Set rc.conf's >firewall setting to YES, policy to 'open' for testing. Mine is also "open," but for me it's irrelevant because I don't use rc.firewall to set up my firewall rules. When the machine boots, it's true that the "open" rules are put in place by rc.firewall, but then I later use a custom script which is called automatically by pppd when his link comes up. I had some troubles which I solved by clearing the firewall rules in my pppd startup script as follows: > fwcmd="/sbin/ipfw -q" > $fwcmd -f flush > $fwcmd add 65000 pass all from any to any This resets the firewall rules equivalent to "open" every time I restart pppd, then after the link comes up, pppd adds the firewall rules by running my custom script. Make sure your firewall rules are active, then add the "divert" rule, making sure it is numerically ahead of all the other firewall rules, then start up natd. Here I use ipfw/natd with pppd running an ISDN line to my upstream ISP, pppd also running downstream modem lines to customers who use some of my registered static IP addresses, and a local ethernet with unregistered 192.168.x.x addresses, all on one box. Works great.

However it produces error message Odd. You say you get the error when you try to 'tar xzvf '? The only thing I can think of is that maybe the version of compress used can't be read by gzip (which is invoked by FreeBSD tar's 'z' option). Try the 'Z' option to run it through uncompress, or try to uncompress (or gunzip) it manually before untarring it....? -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri May 1 04:53:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA07189 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 1 May 1998 04:53:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.welearn.com.au (suebla.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.44.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA07181 for ; Fri, 1 May 1998 04:53:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sue@phoenix.welearn.com.au) Received: (from sue@localhost) by phoenix.welearn.com.au (8.8.5/8.8.5) id VAA09149; Fri, 1 May 1998 21:51:28 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <19980501215125.53591@welearn.com.au> Date: Fri, 1 May 1998 21:51:25 +1000 From: Sue Blake To: Dean Hollister Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: maximum message size References: <19980501194338.08115@welearn.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e In-Reply-To: ; from Dean Hollister on Fri, May 01, 1998 at 05:56:36PM +0800 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: 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 May 1 05:09:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA08261 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 1 May 1998 05:09:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.welearn.com.au (suebla.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.44.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA08250 for ; Fri, 1 May 1998 05:09:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sue2@phoenix.welearn.com.au) Received: (from sue2@localhost) by phoenix.welearn.com.au (8.8.5/8.8.5) id WAA09204; Fri, 1 May 1998 22:09:31 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <19980501220926.32381@welearn.com.au> Date: Fri, 1 May 1998 22:09:27 +1000 From: Sue Blake To: Sue Blake Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: maximum message size References: <19980501194338.08115@welearn.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e In-Reply-To: <19980501194338.08115@welearn.com.au>; from Sue Blake on Fri, May 01, 1998 at 07:43:38PM +1000 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, May 01, 1998 at 07:43:38PM +1000, Sue Blake wrote: > I found these lines in sendmail.cf > > # maximum message size > #O MaxMessageSize=1000000 > > So, I guess all I'd have to do is remove the # from the second line, > change that number (presumably the number of bytes) and restart sendmail, > then it'd limit messages to that number of bytes, like this: > > # maximum message size > O MaxMessageSize=100 Oops!

When I run the standard Apache 1.2.4 httpd all the .htaccess and .htpasswd works for the non FP users however then FP does not work. I was wondering if it may have somthing to do with us using 2.2.1 release on apollo versus 2.2.5 stable or 2.2.5 release on hermes and atlas. Appreciate the help or any advise you may shed on the matter.

Now regarding your mouse: What kind of mouse are you using ? Busmouse or PS/2-mouse ? "psm" is the PS/2-mouse-device, "mse" is the busmouse-device.

Remove it and build a new kernel or enter the kernel-config at boot-time and change it in the psm-device- entry. Did not find "PSM_CHECKSYNC" as an option on 2.2.6 Have a look at /dev and check if there is a "psm0"-device. Check /dev/mouse if it is pointing to /dev/psm0. > 1) Do we have to explicitly invoke the moused daemon? Is it not > automatically started by startx/xinit? I haven't run moused > until now. Moused is a FreeBSD-thing. Don't confuse it with the pointer-device in X. You do not really need moused running, but if you use it, the Pointer-section in /etc/XF86Config gets much easier. Moused can be enabled in /etc/rc.conf with several options and flags. Have a look at "man moused". It is very well written and explains everything about configuring the moused for several kinds of mice. If you decide to use moused, the Pointer-section in /ect/XF86Config will look like this: Section "Pointer" Protocol "SysMouse" Device "/dev/mouse" EndSection If you will not use moused, then you need to change your /etc/XF86Config: > 2) Here is the Pointer section in /etc/XF86Config file: > ># ********************************************************************** ># Pointer section ># ********************************************************************** > > Section "Pointer" > Protocol "MouseMan" > Device "/dev/ttyd0" /dev/ttyd0 is not the PS/2-mouse-device. Make /dev/mouse a link to /dev/psm0 and specify "Device "/dev/mouse". Hope this helps.

This morning when I came to work on the computer, the screen was frozen with reboot message. Part of the message said that / is not properly dismounted. My guess is that somethings bad must have happened last night. I just do not know what it is. The same thing happened the night before (but the symptom was different: the blank screensaver was frozen after leaving the PC on overnight). I used to be able to leave the PC on without any problem at all. Thank you very much, Suttipan Limanond.

They seem fairly reliable, and hold lots of data. That said, from what I have read about AIT, I think you may be able to seek to any file on a tape with AIT in a matter of seconds (20-40?). So depending on your backup software, AIT may allow you to restore individual files a lot quicker. I do not think DLTs seek as fast to individual files. You must take what I say with a big grain of salt. I would just use my comments as basis for further questions / investigation since I am speaking mainly from perception, not from hard, physical observation.

After a career starting with punch cards and paper tape, I'm really happy about being an amateur again. The variety of Unix flavors available for a song is a real delight! However, after a foray into Linux, I find myself more comfortable in BSD. The differences are slight (gcc is gcc, X is X, BIND is BIND, etc etc). But it is true, a professional programmer or admin is /used/ to a certain environment, and that environment tends to resemble BSD. Mostly it is my impression that the 3 BSD's offer solid kernels, and more complete utilities, with fewer glitches. (NFS, rsh, rlogin, etc come to mind here), and a greater impression of being a "unified whole" instead of a patchwork. Linux lacks or has bugs in some system calls. (mmap(), fcntl(), vfork(),...maybe my info here is obsolete). Linux has growing pains, but maybe BSD is senile...BSD source traces back to the ancient papyri and tablets. Some Linux ports are, frankly, sloppy. (timed, rsh). Some of Linux networking code has design problems. (visible in the wretched performance of Linux as an NFS server or client -- maybe this has changed, though.). BSD is also easier to configure, but that is my opinion about what is easy. Linux offers a lot of flash, and really tracks new hardware,bugs,exploits faster... but with this speed of development come speedbumps. Linux = Ferrari, BSD=Mercedes-Benz, (OpenBSD comes with bulletproof tinted glass, FreeBSD with the high performance diesel engine, NetBSD with the ability to run on any road you come across), NT='72 Yugo that's having trouble passing safety inspection (no brakes, lights or wipers, and burns a lot of oil), W95=tricycle with bent front wheel and one pedal. I really think it comes down to analogies like this, until a specific feature is singled out for discussion. I have a vague impression that Linux spends a lot of time "in the shop" -- lots of tweaking. The BSD machines just sit here, and run. Disks are cheap enough and boot loaders clever enough, that it is reasonable to suggest to a prospective adapter of Unix, to install nearly identical Linux and BSD systems, and judge for himself in the actual application areas he needs. (this, gentlefolk, is /luxury/.) One thing not mentioned (I think) in favor of the newbie chosing a BSD, is that textbooks going back a long time use examples from BSD.

I'm not certain where to post this question. Under version 3.3.1 (from 2.2.5-RELEASE) The keyboard was misbehaving. I've tried changing keyboards, motherboards, and eventually releases of X. I would be typing 'more' and get 'moer'. Now, I can do the same thing on any other computer, or on a virtual terminal and never have that problem. Furthermore, I would press the shift, control, or alt key, and they would 'stay pressed' though, again, no problem on a virtual terminal, nor was the key really stuck down. I would press 'return' and get a stray "'" (single quote). I would also get this by pressing the 'tab' key. Beyond this, were to hold down an arrow key, the cursor would move, stop throw in a number (ie '4') and resume. None of these happend at every keystorke, but enough to be annoying. This got worse the longer I was in X. Then, several times, the keyboard would complete;ly lock up, and I would have to unplug it (while the machine was on!) on plug it back in, resetting it. Ok, I was pretty miffed and frustrated (wouldn't you be ;) so I cut off /usr/X11R6, moving it to /usr/Xold. Then I installed (from scratch) X 3.3.2. Now I got the back quote much less frequent and the rest almost (if not) never. This worked pretty well for a week, until StarCalc3 went nuts. A window kept opening and closing until kwm (from KDE) crashed, dumping core, shutting down X, locking up the syscons, leaving me to salute the machine with three fingers (Control, Alt, Delete) to get it to work. THe machine booted fine, went into X, and I'm back to square one, save I think the arrow keys still work. This could drive someone back to Win95 with an Xclient. Help? Please? Any ideas? j. -- The Microsoft Soloution, "newfs && make reinstall" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri May 1 11:04:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA22372 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 1 May 1998 11:04:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rumor.research.att.com (rumor.research.att.com [192.20.225.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA22280; Fri, 1 May 1998 11:03:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ji@research.att.com) Received: from research.att.com ([135.207.30.100]) by rumor; Fri May 1 13:59:23 EDT 1998 Received: from amontillado.research.att.com ([135.207.24.32]) by research-clone; Fri May 1 14:02:50 EDT 1998 Received: from bual.research.att.com (bual.research.att.com [135.207.24.19]) by amontillado.research.att.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id OAA00460; Fri, 1 May 1998 14:02:50 -0400 (EDT) Received: (from ji@localhost) by bual.research.att.com (8.7.5/8.7) id OAA07276; Fri, 1 May 1998 14:02:50 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 1 May 1998 14:02:50 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199805011802.OAA07276@bual.research.att.com> From: John Ioannidis To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FreeBSD 2.2.6 support for the 3COM 3C905 Reply-To: ji@research.att.com Organization: AT&T Labs - Research Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, According to the FreeBSD handbook, the 3COM 3C905 10/100 Mbit ethernet cards are supported (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook10.html).

I have an Intel Pro 10/100 card and am using multiple subnets on my network. From any other box I can ping the UNIX server usually in less than 1 MS. From the UNIX box I can ping anyone on it's segment in less than 1 MS. For some strange reason when I ping outside of the subnet response time is extreemly slow but only from the UNIX box from everywhere else it's just fine. Also I've noticed that netstat -r is really slow to respond and so is telnetting to the server and it takes a long time to startup the cron, sendmail, and inetd daemons. I've been reading through the mail lists and manuals and haven't seen much. I've checked for IRQ conflicts, turned TCP Extensions ON & OFF, and checked all of my network config files. This machine is not setup as a router and is just using the default route to get out. Any ideas would be appreciated. Please CC them to me directly as I am not a member of the list. THANKS.

But I have this strange feeling that, if I enable WINS at the NT machine, making it point to the FBSD box, it won't have to dial. For that I guess I'll habe to edit an lmhosts file, what I don't know how to do. So questions are: 1) Is all of this theory right ? 2) If yes, could someone guide my steps to make a good lmhosts file ? (ahm... should it be at the FBSD or NT box ?) 3) any other ideas ? ] TIA !

We're segmenting an office network into several class Cs, one for each floor of the building. (Yes, they have enough machines we actually have to do this.) We're using a FreeBSD box to route between segments. A few users have laptops, which they wish to be able to plug in on any floor without reconfiguring. Can we bind the same IP to each of several NICs, so that these roaming users can have their own class C? We'd rather not use DHCP.

Yesterday we attempted to revert to the original config by doing a full, fresh install of 2.2.5. Unfortunately, (the install kept hanging after the probing completed, leaving only the cursor at the bottom left of the screen (CGA). Since I *know* this machine was running 2.2.5 *last week* and it was running RedHat 5.0 *yesterday*, I figured I had some kind of weird hardware problem. To prove or disprove the theory, I started doing the standard board swapping bit. No effect. Then this morning, for no reason I can put my finger on, I decided to look at the MBR directly. Even tho it should have been wiped out several times over, there was a perfect RedHat written MBR! It appears that the editor supplied with boot.flp chokes when it is presented with an existing linux (or just Redhat?) disk. After deleting the MBR, the install proceeded fine under both 2.2.5 and 2.2.6. The disk is a Conner 1.6gb IDE, the slices were as follows: / 50mb /stand 20mb /var 30mb /mtp 100mb /usr 200mb /local 1000mb (*not* /usr/local) swap 96mb There was a little bit of space intentionally left on this drive.

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

The result is that most leading edge com- puter books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The sec- ond edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this docu- ment: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and under- lining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller-fea- tured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documenta- tion sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a char- acter-mode terminal. o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a bet- ter choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For exam- ple, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript print- er or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each dis- tribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Con- figuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting In- dex, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ After the example at the top of the page, add: If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cdrom/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s $i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my atten- tion. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for exam- ple the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultaneously with- in Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initializa- tion files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding indi- vidual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environ- ment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The lat- est version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file sys- tem. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system as- sumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite un- happy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the de- vice name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your di- rectory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my atten- tion. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel and Suttipan Limanond for finding this one. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DE- FLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the cor- responding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 493 ________ Replace the last sentence on the page with: Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

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.

I started with Linux but moved on to FreeBSD when I realized Linux performed poorly when heavily loaded with concurrent disk, network, and serial I/O. Linux is a good as a UNIX learning tool and a place for newbies to start. If they cut their teeth on Linux, we won't be inundated by a horde of newbies who know next to nothing about UNIX.

I encourage your efforts but I don't want to join -- I'm apathetic as to whether FreeBSD is advocated or not. As long as FreeBSD has open source code and attracts developers who can read and write good code, I believe that in itself will sustain FreeBSD to the extent which is useful for my purposes. If FreeBSD grows to the extent of Linux due to active promotion and advocacy, fine. But others besides me will have to take that ball and run with it.

"Amateurs like Linux, but > professionals prefer FreeBSD." I, as I'm sure everyone is sick of hearing, have a page where I've compounded some of the more intelligent responses to this sort of question. Still failing in my eternal promise to make it pretty, and I was able to get exactly ZERO feedback from the various Linux hordes, but it's at: http://www.futuresouth.com/~fullermd/freebsd/bsdvlin.html One response I got from someone who saw the site I think sums it up even better than the 'Amateurs/Professionals' statement. It went something like thus: FreeBSD is a BSD UNIX that happens to run on x86 hardware. Linux is a x86 OS that happens to be vaguely POSIX-ish. Another that I saw somewhere was: FreeBSD looks like a bunch of BSD hackers got together and decided to write a PC OS. Linux looks like a bunch of DOS hackers got together and decided to write a PC UNIX, without ever having seen a real UNIX.

It could be a hardware problem, or it could be something started by cron. The first thing would be to look at /var/log/messages and see when the last message was written. If it's consistent, you could look for a cron job started some time after that. If you don't have many console messages, you could try the -m option to syslogd, which will issue "mark messages" at regular intervals. Apart from that, it's a difficult problem. It's a "can't happen" situation which we can't adequately analyse.

I've been very happy over the years with Seagate/Conner/Archive tape drives (but not Conner HD's). Don't have a AIT. Yet. If the AIT drive will use (in addition to the AIT tapes) the very common cheap 8mm digital tapes then the AIT would be an easy choice for me over the DLT. There are lots of backup jobs that "only" require 5G ($6 tape) that might not be done if you had to dig for a $40 tape. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

I'm running ijppp with the autodial option on the FreeBSD box. All was well with this setup until I modified the Win95 box to use a machine on the other side of my PPP link as a nameserver. (Previously, the Win95 box was using the FreeBSD box as a nameserver.) As soon as I made this change, the FreeBSD box started dialing at irregular intervals for no apparent reason. I ran tcpdump on the tun interface and discovered that the Win95 box was sending a lot of netbios traffic to the remote nameserver. Changing the nameserver back to my FreeBSD box has halted this problem. I'll bet that NT is as chatty as Win95.

The point which you were supposed to intuit was that this one teeny weeny machine was handling all this huge load from this ultra busy web and mail server. :) I wasn't being specific. Without any real data, I just assumed the machines were busy. Since Mr. Lehey is in the know; How much of a percentage of available bandwidth does hub/www consume. Just curious.

Well, I'm not *that* much in the know. I have a login on hub, like many others, and from time to time I observe the amount of traffic. It's seldom more than 50% loaded, and mainly round the 20% mark. It's not the big, heavy machine that you might think, though--that's ftp.FreeBSD.org, better known as wcarchive.cdrom.com. This is the world's largest ftp server. At times it has served up to 3200 users concurrently, though I notice that currently the limit is 2500. This machine is David Greenman's personal responsibility, and he may come in with more details. In the meantime, here are some recent performance statistics. You'll note that the daily sum represents an *average* data rate of 3.78 MB/s. To be fair, I should comment that Microsoft's web/ftp site has more throughput--there used to be information at http://www.microsoft.com/syspro/technet/tnnews/features/mscom.htm, but it currently can't find the page. It was there just a few weeks ago, though, and there's not indication that it's moved. I've noticed frequent connection resets from Microsoft, which I assume are crashing servers, so this might be related. In any case, it's difficult to compare directly, since Microsoft is more interested in showing the system architecture for the 80-odd machines they use, but from memory it would appear that their ftp throughput is somewhere between 2 and 3 times that of wcarchive.

For other users, per-mission to use at is determined by the files /var/at/at.allow and /var/at/at.deny. If the file /var/at/at.allow exists, only usernames mentioned in it are allowed to use at. If /var/at/at.allow does not exist, /var/at/at.deny is checked, every username not mentioned in it is then allowed to use at. ============= I'd first try doing "touch /var/at/at.allow" which would create an empty file (hence, no users to allow use of "at" to). If the above doesn't work, then you can "cut -f1 -d: /etc/passwd > /var/at/at.deny", which would then deny use of "at" to all users listed in /etc/passwd file.

Here is what the FAQ says: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 2.18. DNS ports Date: Fri Feb 10 15:40:10 EST 1995 The following table shows what TCP/UDP ports DNS uses to send and receive queries: Prot Src Dst Use udp 53 53 Queries between servers (eg, recursive queries) Replies to above tcp 53 53 Queries with long replies between servers, zone transfers Replies to above udp >1023 53 Client queries (sendmail, nslookup, etc ...) udp 53 >1023 Replies to above tcp >1023 53 Client queries with long replies tcp 53 >1023 Replies to above Note: >1023 is for non-priv ports on Un*x clients. On other client types, the limit may be more or less. Another point to keep in mind when designing filters for DNS is that a DNS server uses port 53 both as the source and destination for it's queries. So, a client queries an initial server from an unreserved port number to UDP port 53. If the server needs to query another server to get the required info, it sends a UDP query to that server with both source and destination ports set to 53. The response is then sent with the same src=53 dest=53 to the first server which then responds to the original client from port 53 to the original source port number. The point of all this is that putting in filters to only allow UDP between a high port and port 53 will not work correctly, you must also allow the port 53 to port 53 UDP to get through. Also, ALL versions of BIND use TCP for queries in some cases. The original query is tried using UDP. If the response is longer than the allocated buffer, the resolver will retry the query using a TCP connection. If you block access to TCP port 53 as suggested above, you may find that some things don't work. Newer version of BIND allow you to configure a list of IP addresses from which to allow zone transfers. This mechanism can be used to prevent people from outside downloading your entire namespace. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri May 1 22:21:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA09385 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 1 May 1998 22:21:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.apc.net (mail.inhousecorp.com [207.113.177.8] (may be forged)) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id WAA09349 for ; Fri, 1 May 1998 22:21:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dima@apc.net) Received: from icg-apc-pr1-p13.apc.net (icg-apc-pr1-p13.apc.net [207.211.76.167]) by mail.apc.net (NTMail 3.03.0013/1d.aag5) with ESMTP id ra832823 for ; Fri, 1 May 1998 22:21:18 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980501221807.0093db70@mail.apc.net> X-Sender: dima@mail.apc.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Fri, 01 May 1998 22:18:07 -0700 To: Ruslan Ermilov From: Dima Dorfman Subject: Re: IPFW Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <19980502080810.A25317@ucb.crimea.ua> References: <3.0.5.32.19980501211444.00919bb0@mail.apc.net> <3.0.5.32.19980501211444.00919bb0@mail.apc.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok thanks.

Thanks. The German c't magazine recently tested a number of motherboards with non-Intel chipsets. Their results: the best are Ali Aladdin, then SiS, then Via. In particular, they weren't impressed with the Via VP3, though they found the newest version, the MVP3, to be OK. See the issue 5/1998 for more details. I've just bought a "Rise Mustang R581A" motherboard (http://www.rise.com.tw/r581a.htm), which includes an SiS 5591/5595 chipset. The specs look good--I'll report once I get round to installing it if anybody is interested.

Hmmm, what's the difference between the VIA Apollo, VP2, and Vp3 chipsets? It seems like in Hawaii, only the Intel TX and Via Apollo based boards are available. > I've just bought a "Rise Mustang R581A" motherboard > (http://www.rise.com.tw/r581a.htm), which includes an SiS 5591/5595 > chipset.

I am using PPPD (although user ppp behaves similarly with proxy) to connect using an ISDN modem and PAP. The connection works fine and I am able to ping and communicate with the Internet. I am trying to allow my ethernet users to see the Internet as well. I understand "defaultroute and/or proxyarp" is required to accomplish this. I receive the following error message after authentication: "Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP" The man page for PPPD says "The proxyarp option causes pppd to look for a network interface on the same subnet as the remote host". I assume this is my problem as my local net is 192.168.93 and my PPP connection is 208.236.113. I just can't figure out how to 1) tell PPPD what the route is to the ed0 interface or 2) change whatever problem setting I have in my local settings. Another odd problem, that may be related, is that I cannot ping my side of the ppp connection from the FreeBSD box. I can ping the peer's address and everything beyond it, ping the ed0 address and ping the ethernet workstation, but not my ppp ip address. Adding routed to rc.conf "solves" this problem, but seems an unnecessary overhead and correcting the symptom not the problem. I have included as much information as I thought was helpful below. Thanks for your help.

The server "eagle" would have three network cards. The idea is to use NAT to access the Internet from workstation 10.0.3.2 (as 123.123.123.3) and to use the other card (123.123.123.4) to access the server "giant" and the 10.0.2.* network and bypassing NAT (since we're on a private network) to be able to use X-Window on 10.0.3.2 to run applications on "giant". The 123.123.123 network would be public. My question is; is this possible and how would you configure "eagle" (routing, ifconfig etc.) Thank you!

I have attached my 4 patches for a clean compilation (fix the "malloc.h"-include-statements and checking of the standard-XFree86-directories) After extracting glut-3.6.tar.gz and glut_data-3.6.tar.gz and applying the patches, just run "mkmkfiles.imake" and then "make" and have fun ;) It compiles without any warnings AND works fine with MesaGL.

I know the 192.168 is reserved for Intranet's only, that's why I am using them on the ethernet and trying to use PPPD to obtain the Internet addresses. PPPD man pages say you can do it this way and the handbook provides almost this exact example using PPP. My understanding is that proxyarp is supposed to provide this "aliasing" so that the local net can use the PPPD connection. I had it working once using PPP by playing with manual settings which I thought I documented well, but now can't reproduce :-( . I haven't yet gotten PPPD to work with the proxyarp.

You have to set up NATD/IPFW to get address translation if you want 192.168.x.x hosts to talk on the Internet.

No I'm not, I was joking. There are ``simple'' and ``normal'' examples in the man page and in the example files. > I think there has to be an easier way, this kind of cryptic trickery > is just what turns people off about freebsd, it takes 3 phd's and 17 > techs to figure out how to log into another computer! how do you expect > "normal" people to figure this out on their own. There's only one concept there, the ``escape character''. That coupled with the knowledge of how many different layers parse the string will allow you to work it out. If you can't work that out, do it by trial and error. If you can't do that, use the examples in the example files. If you can't do that, ask someone else. If you can't do that, you probably don't know what a modem is either. > i think the "expect" program has an easier way of doing things but what do i > know i am just a user. So use the "expect" program. There's an example in the manual on how to use the "chat" program. I'm sure you can do the translation. Sorry to be a bore about this, but the objective here is functionality. I'd rather hear a complaint that "the ``\'' confuses me" instead of a complain that "It's *impossible* to do this with your chat implementation". If you want to take the functionality away, edit the source. That's what it's there for. If you want to front-end it to make it pretend to be more simple, submit patches etc to freebsd-bugs. Otherwise, read the manual page and if I've omitted a good explanation, send me patches. > Laszlo Vagner > Texas Instruments > Email:kf7nn@ti.com > FreeBSD The OS of choice. > http://mutsgo.dyn.ml.org > telnet://mutsgo.dyn.ml.org > Pg. 598-5217 > Wk. 995-4297 > -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

I have a rash of 386 boards with 2-16 megs of ram. Will FreeBSD be of any use for on these sort of machines? I already decided that the 286s won't work and need to hit the dump :) Also...how much HD space is required to run the OS. For instance I have several HDs under 100 megs. Can I use one of those HDs and setup a router with on it? How much ram is needed? How much HD? How much Memory/CPU is needed? I guess what I need to know is basic minimiums for FreeBSD. I would like to run a Router that can IP alias for several machines over a Ethernet Internet connection. Am I asking too much of this old hardware?

In 100 Mbit mode (which has to be set manually with a DOS utility) they gave me very bad performance against other 100 mpbs machines, and caused machines which relied on nfs mounts for /usr/local to actually crash! The nfs server had the 3com card, the clients had different cards, and I ended up having to run the clients in 10 Mbit/s through a 10/100 multiport hub, before I realized that it was the server nic that was spooky.

After some tests, I have found that enabeling the filters below would stop ppp from dialing in many cases: set dfilter 2 deny udp src gt 49 set dfilter 3 deny udp dst gt 49 set dfilter 4 deny udp src lt 233 set dfilter 5 deny udp dst lt 49 PPP dos not dial when NT is booting up. The result of tcpdump when NT is booting can be seen on file dump.txt attached. Now, when I try to browse the network, ppp starts dialing. Result of tcpdump when i try to browse the network (simply double clicking the "Networtk Neighborhood" icon) can be seen on the dump2.txt file. Finally, dump3.txt shows a "Find Computer" operation looking for a computer on the network. For me, those files show that UDP call are baing made, and that those ports are being covered by the ppp filtering. Could someone take a look at those files and give me a couple of steps to follow ?

Proxy arp is when your machine answers arp requests on behalf of the machine that's made the ppp connection. If it's not part of the same subnet as one of your interfaces, there will never be any arp requests for the IP, and therefore the proxy arp is not required. > Another odd problem, that may be related, is that I cannot ping my side of > the ppp connection from the FreeBSD box.

Ppp has a ``loopback'' option that defaults to enabled. With this option, packets destined for the local interface address are looped back. NICs do this for you, pppd does not. > I have included as much information as I thought was helpful below. > > Thanks for your help. > > Harry If you want to connect your LAN to the 'net when your LANs IPs are not recognised by the outside world, use the -alias switch to ppp. If you really want to use pppd, use natd too. If your LAN has real IPs, then the problem is a routing one, not a ppp one. -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

You're barking up the wrong tree trying to do network address translation (NAT) by using proxyarp. I use proxyarp to make some of my downstream modem clients look like they're on my local ethernet, so they can use static IP addresses which belong to my ethernet network number. That's one purpose of proxyarp, but it has nothing to do with network address translation where 192.168.x.x hosts are allowed to talk on the Internet.

I have setup a 2.2.1 box with TCPDUMP working and started listening to vx0 (3COm pci card) Allow me to give you a description of what is going on: Now I have 3 machines networked: 1 -2.2.1 box w/ TCPDUMP listening to network 2 -2.2.5 box with [ppp -alias -auto mpc] and [Samba] 3 -NT 4 worksatayion w/ Service pack 3 2.2.1 machine is 150.150.150.129 2.2.5 box is 150.150.150.130 NT W 4 box is 150.150.150.131 I am ruiinig TCPDUMP from the 2.2.1 box 'cause I dont have 2.2.5 sources here, so I can't listen to tun0 as it would be recommended. After some tests, I have found that enabeling the filters below would stop ppp from dialing in many cases: set dfilter 2 deny udp src gt 49 set dfilter 3 deny udp dst gt 49 set dfilter 4 deny udp src lt 233 set dfilter 5 deny udp dst lt 49 PPP dos not dial when NT is booting up. The result of tcpdump when NT is booting can be seen on file dump.txt attached. Now, when I try to browse the network, ppp starts dialing. Result of tcpdump when i try to browse the network (simply double clicking the "Networtk Neighborhood" icon) can be seen on the dump2.txt file. Finally, dump3.txt shows a "Find Computer" operation looking for a computer on the network. For me, those files show that UDP call are baing made, and that those ports are being covered by the ppp filtering. Could someone take a look at those files and give me a couple of steps to follow ? One aditional fact: when setting up my network card, during the installation, I'v set the Gateway and Name Server for the network 200.246.0.252, which are my ISP's values for those.

The small drives may be a problem but for just a router you won't need to add any software over the minimal install. Performance wise, it wasn't really all that long ago that 386DX's were hot stuff and routing doesn't do a whole lot of floating point :) Dan -- Dan Busarow 714 443 4172 DPC Systems / Beach.Net dan@dpcsys.com Dana Point, California 83 09 EF 59 E0 11 89 B4 8D 09 DB FD E1 DD 0C 82 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat May 2 12:01:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA05554 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 2 May 1998 12:01:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.welearn.com.au (suebla.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.44.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA05519 for ; Sat, 2 May 1998 12:01:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sue@phoenix.welearn.com.au) Received: (from sue@localhost) by phoenix.welearn.com.au (8.8.5/8.8.5) id FAA15945; Sun, 3 May 1998 05:01:05 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <19980503050102.12727@welearn.com.au> Date: Sun, 3 May 1998 05:01:02 +1000 From: Sue Blake To: Dave Marquardt Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: junk pointer, too low to make sense References: <19980502212231.18540@welearn.com.au> <85d8dw4s3l.fsf@localhost.zilker.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e In-Reply-To: <85d8dw4s3l.fsf@localhost.zilker.net>; from Dave Marquardt on Sat, May 02, 1998 at 10:20:30AM -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, May 02, 1998 at 10:20:30AM -0500, Dave Marquardt wrote: > Sue Blake writes: > > inetd in realloc(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense. > > > > That's what is currently preventing FTP to this machine, and it also > > says that if someone tries to telnet in, but not for ssh so I haven't > > noticed it before, dunno how long it's been happening. > > > > From the mail archives it looks like nobody's sure what's going on with > > this one but it's fairly common.

In this case, the /usr partition and the cdrom source were both NFS mounted from another machine. The trick is to get the /usr partition mounted. The normal install script doesn't seem to provide an easy hook to do this. [HELP? ] So what I did was: 0) install as usual, manually partitioning the IDE drive to have 13 MB for swap and 27MB for / 1) did "minimal install", which is just the "bin" stuff. 2) allowed it to fail when the / disk filled. 3) Over on virtual console 4, which now has some working utilities, rm -r /usr, then nfs mount the /usr partition from the server. 4) Install is asking, at this point, "Try again?" Sure, try again. This time it succeeds, of course. 5) After install is done (but before rebooting), return to vc 4, and manually edit /etc/fstab to include the nfs mount of /usr. 6) Other config stuff, to your own taste. 7) reboot, expect success. Experience with these 386[SD]X boards has led me to believe them quite capable of the task you mention. I wouldn't bother trying with less than 8MB of memory, although 4 is supposed to be the min. Note: you may well need 8MB to install... but can cut back to 4 later when the box is in production on some dedicated task. For a standalone system, (no nfs), I have shoehorned /NetBSD/ into a 68MB disk, with some swap and spare. I recommend using nfs /usr for installation, then manually paring it down later, and tar'ing it into the standalone partition -- all this after installing and reboot. An alternative is to link /usr to /dev/null during the install, if a pre-existing /usr will be nfs mounted later. I don't know if sysinstall will choke on this or not, but if it doesn't, it would be clever. This is from the 386SX just mentioned: [root@ishmael /root]# mount /dev/wd0s1a on / (local) procfs on /proc (local) pollux:/usr on /usr (read-only) <-- full bore /usr from a server pollux:/home on /home pollux:/home/IshmaelUsr on /mnt <-- the usr created during install [root@ishmael /root]# df -k Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s1a 27007 15337 9510 62% / procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc pollux:/usr 508655 217253 250710 46% /usr pollux:/home 1012976 448366 483572 48% /home pollux:/home/IshmaelUsr 1012976 448366 483572 48% /mnt [root@ishmael /root]# cd /mnt [root@ishmael /mnt]# du -k -s 35752 . [root@ishmael /mnt]# So it looks like I got away with 15M / + 36M /usr + 13M swap = 64MB total disk usage. If you've got the spare mem, try to avoid swapping on these old turkey disks, unless you're nostalgic. 16M is nice, but I have had 386 mobos choke on 4MB simms. The IshmaelUsr install partition is as it was after the installation, I.e., no manual paring has been done, so it still contains static libs, perl, /usr/share, /usr/include, all the timezones, and so on. Note, this drive is an IDE. If you have old MFM or ESDI drives, then it gets more complicated: you will want to use the bad144 utility to reserve space for and mark bad blocks on the drive. This can be omitted, only at your peril. The install floppy does have bad144 on it, but I do not know if the sysinstall will stop at the right point for you to run it. [Yet, hehheh. That 68MB disk with NetBSD on it is MFM, and is scheduled to be installed with Freebsd real soon now.] My advice on MFM drives is to use them only if you are into antiques. I get a definite satisfaction hearing that old Seagate 4096 clunk around running BSD, though. After a lifetime of DOSing, the old gentleman deserves something dignified in his declining years. If you have some benchmark or whatever that you'd like to see on the 386SX, (or a 386DX/33) contact me off-list. I have run a 386DX/33 as an nfs server (/home partitions) for about a year, over 10Base2 ethernet, and am satisfied with its performance. As an X font server, though, it bogged down. Only one user, though, so YMMV. Pointer: old BIOS suck worse than new ones, so expect trouble with large drives, dual booting, or other tricks. Stick with "whole disk for BSD", and your problems will be smaller. Some old BIOS won't boot without a keyboard or monitor. Put those ones in the dumpster, unless you don't mind that restriction. Old Phoenix BIOS suck worst, I think. Pointer: disable any kind of cute shadowing rubbish in the BIOS; 386's almost always have some kludged DOS-accommodating trash turned on, even the stupid "Expanded Memory (LIM EMS)" stuff. Go for a vanilla BIOS setup. Enable A20 line. Pointer: 386s really like cache memory (0K on the chip). Many old mobos will take 256K of cache. Consider doing this later, if the machine checks out otherwise. Another use: old boxes make good things for kids. A kid will learn more "about computers" in a month on a 386+Unix, than in a year with a Windoze P5 nickelodeon. A friend's 12-year-old is almost ready to be given root. They can surf da net with lynx, if they have to.

Is it possible? That depends on a lot of factors. If the new disk is *exactly* the same as your old one, you can use dd. If it's not, a fresh install is probably your best bet.

I am trying to bring up a box with an SMC8013EWP NIC (the exact same NIC that 20 or so other boxes here are using on 2.2.5-R). First, let me say up front that I have run the card through diagnostics, and it's ok. I have even swapped it out and had it work fine in the box it went to, and now have the *other* (working) card to mess with. This is NOT a hardware problem, no matter WHAT it may *look* like :) I can bring up ed0 with 0x300, [5,10], 0xcc000, but I cannot get it to work at 0x280 with ANY irq or RAM settings! I know how to set the options on the install screen, but they are obviously being ignored, since it never finds ed0 on probes. I MUST have this one box on 0x280, IRQ 3 or 10, and 0xd8000 or 0xd0000 so that I can accomodate another piece of hardware. With that in mind... How do I get around 2.2.5's refusal to map to my selected addressings??? TIA J.A.

A DOS style fdisk (which is what freebsd uses so it stays compatible with your other operating systems) looks at all logical drives as one big partition (or one big slice to use the freebsd term). Therefore you can't install freebsd into just one logical drive, the only way to deal with that situation is to delete all of the logical drives, create the space you want for FreeBSD and then recreate the logical drives (using DOS fdisk). Of course, this will mean losing any data on your logical drives, so make sure you have backups of that info. In fact, you will probably want to have backups of anything that's important on the disk including the C partition.

I am trying to bring up a box with an SMC8013EWP NIC (the exact same NIC that 20 or so other boxes here are using on 2.2.5-R). First, let me say up front that I have run the card through diagnostics, and it's ok. I have even swapped it out and had it work fine in the box it went to, and now have the *other* (working) card to mess with. This is NOT a hardware problem, no matter WHAT it may *look* like :) I can bring up ed0 with 0x300, [5,10], 0xcc000, but I cannot get it to work at 0x280 with ANY irq or RAM settings! I know how to set the options on the install screen, but they are obviously being ignored, since it never finds ed0 on probes. I MUST have this one box on 0x280, IRQ 3 or 10, and 0xd8000 or 0xd0000 so that I can accomodate another piece of hardware. With that in mind... How do I get around 2.2.5's refusal to map to my selected addressings??? TIA J.A.

What we generally prefer is for you to add a link to the information on the freebsd site. The reason is that we update that info fairly often (several times a week on average) and as soon as you copy it to your site you run the risk of it becoming out of date.

Well, /etc/daily isn't the "culprit", it just finds the problem. The real problem is that you have corruption in your /usr file system. You need to at least seriously fsck your /usr file system, but it looks as if that won't do it, since it happens on a reboot. The other possibility is to find the directory and try to remove it. Try this, preferably in single-user mode: # mount /usr # find /usr -type d | xargs ls -ldi | grep ^70579 This will find all directories on /usr, list them with the inode number at the beginning of the line, and extract lines with the text 70579 at the beginning. Let us know what comes out. While you're waiting, you can of course disable /etc/daily in your /etc/crontab. Find the following line and add the # at the beginning of the line: # 0 2 * * * root /etc/daily 2>&1 | sendmail root Greg -- See complete headers for address and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat May 2 17:23:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA12430 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 2 May 1998 17:23:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dt050n33.san.rr.com (@dt050n33.san.rr.com [204.210.31.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA12425 for ; Sat, 2 May 1998 17:23:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Studded@san.rr.com) Received: from san.rr.com (Studded@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by dt050n33.san.rr.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA08222; Sat, 2 May 1998 17:22:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Studded@san.rr.com) Message-ID: <354BB8E1.B38AAF80@san.rr.com> Date: Sat, 02 May 1998 17:22:57 -0700 From: Studded Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE-0426 i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Joe Halpin CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Kernel config question References: <199805010145.SAA00940@hub.freebsd.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Joe Halpin wrote: > > I've just gotten my pnp soundcard to work with 2.2.6, but I don't know > why. > > "The Complete FreeBSD" didn't say anything about how to configure the > pcm0 and pnp0 devices, so I just took the lines straight from > LINT.

If you want to migrate to DES, make sure you fetch it from ftp.internat.freebsd.org, then grab the des/des distribution and extract on top of /usr.

What's the rationale for this? Isn't > readonly /usr (and /, if possible) a Good Thing anymore? A few people have given you good answers already, I'd like to throw in a few pennies of my own. The "default" installation options are designed to fit the needs of the average workstation person who's installing FreeBSD to give it a try. (Basically.) The oft-repeated recommendations of symlink'ing things to /usr are intended to help users who don't have a lot of security concerns get the most out of their disk space. Obviously, someone who has more system administration experience can twiddle those settings to suit their own needs. Personally I would like to see say three levels of "defaults;" "desktop," "server," and "big server" or something to that effect where the desktop settings are what we have now, the server settings give some reasonable defaults like making /var, /tmp and /home seperate partitions, and big server (Ok, YOU pick a better name :) sets up larger versions of the server stuff. You might even throw in "developer" which gives reasonable default sizes (and seperate partitions) for /usr/src and /usr/obj. Of course, the standard question applies, "where is the patch?" To which I reply that I'm still in the middle of my C class and arrays are giving me a fairly substantial headache. :) Someday though....

You might try finding the Windows SSH client from Cedonir Igaly, log into the FreeBSD box, and then fire up X. The ssh X forwarding may get around the proxy.

What is this format and can I use it on my BSD system? Netscape could not be distributed with the CD for licensing reasons. The port is probably out of date, try fetching a newer port from http://www.freebsd.org/ports. I think we have some RPM tools in the ports tree but don't quote me on that.

Well, to get the correct upgrade effect you want to upgrade it, but as I said, a workaround is to copy libc.so.3.0 to libc.so.3.1 and running `ldconfig -m /usr/lib'.

That was wrong. 1) You hosed your Linux partition, 2) the parameters on it probably confused the heck out of sysinstall.

Actually no -- FreeBSD has a cow about it. Some people (probably committers) complained about it spinning down and thus stuck the option in. I think there is an override option that doesn't disable spindown, you'll have to check the wdc.c code in the kernel. > A couple of years back, I was playing with one of the first "green machines" > I'd ever seen (and it did let the drives spin down).

I think some computers would take so long to come back that the system would assume a failure condition and return errors, or worse.

Just in case anyone is, for some odd reason, interested in getting to the bottom of this, here is a summary of the last year's head-scratching on this list. All questions reported the above error message when trying to access a machine via ftp and/or telnet and/or rlogin. In the case of ftp the session failed as a result. Versions of FreeBSD mentioned included 2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.5, and 2.2.5-STABLE Some said the problem came and went, others said a reboot fixed it. Several claimed that there must be a fix in the mail archives because they'd heard it discussed so often. Not so. Here's what I found: * Doug White, July 1997 This is a message from the system malloc library saying that it may be getting invalid pointers. This is usually caused by programming errors, but it's interesting to see inetd spitting these out. You might check your inetd.conf and make sure it's properly formatted. * Doug White, September 1997 Its a small complaint from the memory allocation library. I don't see an explicit fix for it, I might send in a pr just to confirm it's been fixed. * Doug White, October 1997 The memory allocation library detected what it thinks is an invalid call to free() memory. This can be safely ignored. There is something in inetd which trips it but I'm not sure what it is. * Doug White, October 1997 The memory allocation library detected what it thinks is an invalid call to free() memory. This can be safely ignored. There is something in inetd which trips it but I'm not sure what it is. * Doug White, October 1997 It's harmless. If it bugs you, have inetd's log output placed in a different file. See syslog.conf. * Ian Pallfreeman, October 1997 If that's "inetd in free()", this happens when you're out of swap space. I get it often when some jerk fires of heaps of nntp daemons on the news box. * Doug White, October 1997 It shouldn't stop su to root since it's long after inetd gets through. It shouldn't do anything to ftp either, unless it never gets started. What error messages are you seeing? * Guy Helmer, January 1998 This problem has been mentioned many times before but I don't see whether anyone has resolved it. Any solutions? * Doug White, January 1998 > This problem has been mentioned many times before but I don't see whether > anyone has resolved it. Any solutions? None yet that I know of. The biggest problem is that it's hard to reproduce -- my machine doesn't give those errors. If you can get a consistent case and can attach gdb to it and give details, then we might be able to do something with it. Note that it could be a library call, if realloc() isn't called in the program itself. * Ruslan Shevchenko, January 1998 I was have the same message, fix unknown and I have no any idea :(In current-stable (during one month) all ok. * William M. Cole, February 1998 I get this at every login after having run out of swap space until a reboot. It doesn't seem to affect anything else, but don't take my word for it. A workaround, I guess, would be to increase your swap space. I would, but I'm only running on a 100MB drive. * Doug White, February 1998 This happens to a fraction of the users and unfortunately I don't know a solution offhand. The last suggestion was to check `netstat -m' and see how many mbuf clusters are in use and the max value. If the max is within 3/4 of the total maxiumum (default 255?) then you need to increase the number by compiling your kernel with `options NMBCLUSTERS=XXXX'. Something is running out of memory or is leaking memory. * Doug White, February 1998 Check the mail archives for my previous advice on this. Rebooting will usually clear it up, but you may need to increase your mbufs. * Greg Lehey, March 1998 Yes, I've seen this too. I seem to recall some solution, but I'd have to dig. You can recover from this by stopping and restarting inetd. * Andrew MacIntyre, March 1998 Someone (Cy Schubert??) in the last week or so posted a set of accumulated patches for 2.2.5-RELEASE, including a fairly critical VM fix from John Dyson. The VM fix may be a solution to your freeze problem.... If you can, I'd suggest looking through the list archive for that set of patches, which will probably tide you over until you're ready to upgrade to 2.2.6. Now, my machine is still doing this. I am yet to try Greg's suggestion of restarting inetd. My question is, does anyone know or care why this is happening, and if it is transient can I assist in working it out while it's happening here?

I certainly hope you'll tell your PPP users to change over :) The DNS clients may reject the return packets since it's different than where it sent it to, and it looks like a spoof.

How does the UPS signal a `2 minute warning', exactly? You just have to set up a handler for that signal and react appropriately. If you want to do anything in the interim (when you get the initial on-battery signal) then reset the handler for line-fail. You can take the `after 180' out to disable the timeout. Grab ftp://gdi.uoregon.edu/pub/upsd.2.0.1.6.1.tgz; it has a 120v config file and manpages for upsd.conf.

Sorry, we're not very experienced in removing FreeBSD and installing Microsoft products. I'd suggest you look at your Microsoft documentation. Here are some possibilities: 1. Boot Microsoft from diskette and check the partition table with Microsoft's FDISK program. If you find a Microsoft partition (type 4: primary), mark it bootable and reboot. 2. If you have accidentally overwritten your Microsoft partitions, reinstall and restore your data from the backup. If this is what happened, it's due to lack of caution on your part. Installing *any* software which manipulates the partition table has the potential to shoot yourself in the foot. Don't blame it on the software. Of course, maybe you want to keep FreeBSD after all? In that case, let us know what hardware you have, how far you have got with the installation, and how you are trying to install it.

Sorry. Hello all. I have setup a 2.2.1 box with TCPDUMP working and started listening to vx0 (3COm pci card) Allow me to give you a description of what is going on: Now I have 3 machines networked: 1 -2.2.1 box w/ TCPDUMP listening to network 2 -2.2.5 box with [ppp -alias -auto mpc] and [Samba] 3 -NT 4 worksatayion w/ Service pack 3 2.2.1 machine is 150.150.150.129 2.2.5 box is 150.150.150.130 NT W 4 box is 150.150.150.131 I am ruiinig TCPDUMP from the 2.2.1 box 'cause I dont have 2.2.5 sources here, so I can't listen to tun0 as it would be recommended. After some tests, I have found that enabeling the filters below would stop ppp from dialing in many cases: set dfilter 2 deny udp src gt 49 set dfilter 3 deny udp dst gt 49 set dfilter 4 deny udp src lt 233 set dfilter 5 deny udp dst lt 49 PPP dos not dial when NT is booting up. The result of tcpdump when NT is booting can be seen on file dump.txt attached. Now, when I try to browse the network, ppp starts dialing. Result of tcpdump when i try to browse the network (simply double clicking the "Networtk Neighborhood" icon) can be seen on the dump2.txt file. Finally, dump3.txt shows a "Find Computer" operation looking for a computer on the network. For me, those files show that UDP call are baing made, and that those ports are being covered by the ppp filtering. Could someone take a look at those files and give me a couple of steps to follow ? One aditional fact: when setting up my network card, during the installation, I'v set the Gateway and Name Server for the network 200.246.0.252, which are my ISP's values for those. Is that correct, and can this be interfering ? If yes, what values should I put there ? Thank you all !10:48:10.352636 150.150.150.130.netbios-dgm > 150.150.150.255.netbios-dgm: udp 215 10:49:13.740596 arp who-has 150.150.150.131 tell 150.150.150.131 10:49:14.735299 arp who-has

Move your FreeBSD disk so that it's the first disk in the system then do the following: If you get the message: panic: Cannot mount root At the end of the probe sequence you should either: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other parameters unchanged).

Well, it tells me what's happened. I presume that "Non-DOS" is Microsoft's answer to any partition type except its own, and in this case is type 165 (FreeBSD). This is possibility (2): you have overwritten your entire disk while installing FreeBSD, so you'll have to reinstall Microsoft and read in your backup. If you *do* want to continue with FreeBSD, you could consider partitioning the disk with space for both operating systems.

I was wondering if there were a way to have it break and redial if the link was not started X seconds after the dial? Occasionally, the login name and passwd are sent, but I am not authenticated. (The server, to be updated very soon, just get's too loaded down to start the session). Anyhow, when this happens, I'd like the script to wait a few seconds and then redial. Is this possible?
