I have it split in half, the first 2G to WinDoze and second to 2G to FreeBSD. I'm trying to install the Aug 4 3.0 snapshot and FDISK, during the install, reports 993 cyl, 128 track, 63 head, for the disk, so it's all <1024, but the labeler won't let me put a root filesystem in it. The disk itself does say 7944/16/63, but even so I understand there's a utility that allows booting to dos then loading freebsd from there. It's hard to do if the installer won't install though. The FAQ and Handbook don't say very much about this... Suggestions? I *really* don't want to put a dinky partition at the beginning, aside from not liking dinky partitions, I don't want to have to reinstall WinDoze yet again (and until FreeBSD can run all WinDoze apps, it's got to be there). -- Alan Batie ______ www.rdrop.com/users/batie Me batie@agora.rdrop.com \ / www.qrd.org The Triangle PGPFP DE 3C 29 17 C0 49 7A \ / www.pgpi.com The Weird Numbers 27 40 A5 3C 37 4A DA 52 B9 \/ www.anti-spam.net NO SPAM! --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNc1nG4v4wNua7QglAQEJogP/YvxaXoUmDb7xD8KZB/cmBuGaPeFXRMMG NNTMzYivzScku18WyWee5e0IO1dyNps6bt/IstSO9rpmzafG3gwcDKoe2GuZ9+6s s05XrQ6qcLm+HWDmeiOgaFA5tLbLiah70VSWRc9fv3jM66vRIW5PT4IE9WJQspU6 /Y8UrecVG/g= =tFyQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 02:20:57 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA28568 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 02:20:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pat.uio.no (pat.uio.no [129.240.130.16]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id CAA28563 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 02:20:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from anders.odberg@usit.uio.no) Received: from troll.uio.no (actually troll.uio.no [129.240.186.19]) by pat.uio.no with SMTP (PP); Sun, 9 Aug 1998 11:20:34 +0200 Received: from odberg by troll.uio.no with local (Exim 2.00 #1) id 0z5ReT-0000Sa-00; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 11:20:33 +0200 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: anders.odberg@usit.uio.no Subject: scsi errors and crash MIME-Version: 1.0 From: Anders Odberg Date: 09 Aug 1998 11:20:32 +0200 Message-ID: Lines: 69 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, My newsfeeding-box (running FreeBSD-2.2.6) keeps crashing once or twice a month with these messages : Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): SCB 0x1 - timed out in dataout phase, SCSISIGI == 0x4 Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): SCB 0x1 - timed out in dataout phase, SCSISIGI == 0x4 Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: SEQADDR = 0x121 SCSISEQ = 0x12 SSTAT0 = 0x0 SSTAT1 = 0x2 Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: SEQADDR = 0x121 SCSISEQ = 0x12 SSTAT0 = 0x0 SSTAT1 = 0x2 Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): abort message in message buffer Aug 5 15:43:33 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): abort message in message buffer Aug 5 15:43:34 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): SCB 0x0 timedout while recovery in progress Aug 5 15:43:34 feedme /kernel: sd1(ahc1:2:0): SCB 0x0 timedout while recovery in progress Aug 5 15:43:35 feedme /kernel: Unexpected busfree.

Here's a bunch of questions about my mail and how I'd like to receive it. I have a permanent connection to my ISP via ADSL. At present, all mail for my domains is delivered direct to my ISP. I then download it with an email client. One problem I have with my email is spam to old addresses which I no longer use but are part of my domain (eg. xyz@mydomain.com). I have two domains. The mail for one (dvl.co.nz) gets sent to one of my ISPs. My other domain (dvl-software.com) is a virtual domain handled by my web site host. Mail sent to that domain is controlled by a .redirect file on my virtual machine at that host (I don't fully understand how it works; I just know how to add entries to the .redirect file to forward mail from spot to spot). What I would like to do is exercise more control over the current situation. Specifically, I'd like mail sent to dan@dvl.co.nz to be bounced back to the sender, never to be seen my me again. Similary, mail to dan.langille@dvl-software.com, I'd like to let through. I've read the stuff in the handbook (17.3.3. How can I do E-Mail with a dialup PPP host? http://www.au.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/handbook/handbook253.html#497) and that solution seems to apply to me. That is, make my ISP a secondary server to myself. Does this make sense? Sendmail is up and running on my machine. Mail sent to my freebsd box gets out into the realworld. I'm guessing that what I need to do is install procmail, which is a local mail delivery agent. Is that correct? How does procmail (incoming?) differ from sendmail (outgoing)? -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 06:24:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA18152 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 06:24:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA18147 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 06:24:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from listread@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from listread@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA04256; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:00:53 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from listread) Message-Id: <199808091300.JAA04256@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: help in convincing management not to supplant Unix with NT In-Reply-To: <199808090309.WAA00774@gforce.bellsouth.net> from Glenn Johnson at "Aug 8, 98 10:09:37 pm" To: gljohns@bellsouth.net (Glenn Johnson) Date: Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:00:53 -0400 (EDT) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-no-archive: yes Reply-to: djv@bedford.net From: CyberPeasant X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (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 Glenn Johnson wrote: > Greetings, > > > At my place of employment, the management team, who are basically computer > illiterate, have decided that there should be no Unix machines providing > network or Internet services, only NT machines.

Hotmail runs Unix. (Solaris, I think). They tried NT. No soap. Microsoft uses 40 NT servers to handle the FTP load handled by a single-CPU machine at www.cdrom.com (aka ftp.freebsd.org) running FreeBSD. > All pointers and moral support are greatly appreciated. Thanks. > Sometimes a sheaf of letters of resignation from all the clued tech staff helps. (seriously). Now is a good time to change jobs. One of the reasons that NT is used to replace Unix is because pointed-headed managers think they will be cheaper to manage. They intend to fire all the Unix people, and hire "certified droids". They have been assured by M$ marketers that it will be cheaper to run NT. *sigh* the managers secretly believe that the new pimple-faced NT dweebs will be more docile and easily controlled. This is correct. Challenge them to provide a /single/ technical reason to run NT on a server. This won't work though, they already have the evidence. Evidence doesn't matter to these types. They have a "vision". Pfui. Good luck -- post the results! Dave -- Bedford County, PA -- 47,000 polite, friendly Appalachians, 4,000 of whom have concealed-carry permits.

Quotas for user darkness: /home: blocks in use: 11498, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) inodes in use: 3, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) Does the above mean for just /home or for /home/darkness?? thanks for your help, Lanny ----- ----- \ / \ / \ / /------\ Pure BEEF / \ | 0 0 | is \ / \ / DELICIOUS \ / \ / OO ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Lanny Baron Date: 09-Aug-98 Time: 12:01:41 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 09:17:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA29188 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:17:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from clubserv.rp-online.de (clubserv.rp-online.de [149.221.232.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA29181 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:17:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from veith@bigfoot.com) Received: from bigfoot.com (as7-pri60.rp-plus.de [149.221.239.60]) by clubserv.rp-online.de (8.9.0.Beta5/8.9.0.Beta5) with ESMTP id SAA17612 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 18:18:26 +0200 (METDST) Message-ID: <35CDCBD3.D558CE9D@bigfoot.com> Date: Sun, 09 Aug 1998 18:18:27 +0200 From: Stefan Veith Organization: --- X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Problems compiling KDE-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 Hello!

Most things are moving along smoothly, but it seems that the two environments differ in their assignment of userids and groupids. The userids for bsdos tend to start at 100 for ordinary users; for freebds they start at 1000. I like the 1000 starting point better, in fact, but there is still the problem of globally changing all of the userids on every file on every system. Also, what about backups? I use mostly tar, some dumps: is there any known way of supplying a reassignment table which can be used to "map" old userids to new ones as part of the restore process? The problem with groupids is more complicated. The groupids for ordinary users have the same difference of starting at 100 for bsdos and at 1000 for freebsd, but there is another difference as well: under bsdos, ordinary users are generally assigned to one a a small number of groups ("user", "staff", and so on) while under freebsd, each user is assigned a unique groupid, generally the same as the userid, and each shared project or other shared domain is assigned a pseudo-userid. Under the bsdos system, then, most users' files tend to have the same groupid, so group write permission is usually off. However, since under the freebsd system, each user's files have a unique groupid, group write permission tends to be on. Before I came to bsdos I had used a system similar to the freebsd one, so I have no problem moving back to it, but not only do all of the groupids have to be reassigned, but also the permissions have to be altered for certain userid.groupid pairs. Finally, since the userids and groupids are independent under bsdos, when files need to be shared, you just have to create a new group which includes all of the users who need to work on them, and make the directory containing the shared files owned by that group, with group write permission turned on. Under freebsd, you create a new userid.groupid entity with no login permissions, add the members of the team to the group, and have the directories owned either by the project's userid.groupid or by one of the members, with the project's groupid. Therefore, in any set of files that need to be brought into freebsd from bsdos, there will need to be a set of conditional changes of userid, groupid, and group permissions. I have done this kind of thing in the past using kludges of one sort or another, including a hack which I no longer can even find that filtered a tar format data stream to change userids and groupids on an archive before it got to tar. I don't think the old program would work even if I had it, because it only used Version 7 format tar files--an up-to-date program would need to know several other formats. Another method I've used is find scripts, but these are very dangerous if the set of "from" userid/groupid/permissions overlaps with the "to" values: what do you do if the process is interrupted before it is completed in this case? It seems to me that the best way to do this kind of thing would be to hack tar itself to consult a mapping table immediately before it sets each file's ownership and modes during restores. The format for the mapping would be nontrivial, although I suppose it might not be too difficult to have tar itself construct a database of all of the combinations of userid groupid and group permissions in an archive: this could then be edited to create a mapping database. Any ideas? -Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 09:52:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA01523 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:52:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lorax.ubergeeks.com (lorax.ubergeeks.com [206.205.41.241]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA01518 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 09:52:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from adrian@lorax.ubergeeks.com) Received: from localhost (adrian@localhost) by lorax.ubergeeks.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA02064 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 12:51:55 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from adrian@lorax.ubergeeks.com) Date: Sun, 9 Aug 1998 12:51:54 -0400 (EDT) From: ADRIAN Filipi-Martin Reply-To: Adrian Filipi-Martin To: FreeBSD Questions List Subject: slow amanda dumps?

I am backing up a mix of Solaris, FreeBSD and Digital boxes, and am having a preculiar problem. When the FreeBSD and Digital clients are dumping the transfer rates between the client and the server is abysmal. It is on the order of 50-100KB/s. All of the affected hosts are on a switched 100Mb/s hub, so connectivity is good. I can even do a "dump -0f - | rsh tapeserver dd of=/dev/null" and I consistently get throughputs of a 800KB/s or better. This is about what the other clients are getting normally. Has anyone else seen this problem?

It installs, but just > gives me one option (F1) which is DOS. I have installed my kernel second SCSI disk. I am successfully boot up from second drive by booteasy pressing F5 key. But accidentally, I erased booteasy. So, I have reinstalled booteasy by /stand/sysinstall, custom, partition, And wrote booteasy to the first and the second drive respectively. But when booting from first drive, there is no menu of F5. Nevertheless I press F5, booteasy on the second drive boots up and invodes kernel, and things go well. This seems very queer to me. Is this bug on booteasy ? So, you should boot up kernel by hand by floppy or by typing 0:wd(2,a)kernel (? I am not confident of this parameter.) to 'boot:' prompt, and call /stand/sysinstall. You should read FreeBSD-Handbook or FAQ on this /stand/sysinstall and partition-w. See http://www.freebsd.org/.

If you run the DNS for both domains change the MX records to point to your DSL connected machine. If you don't control it ask the ISPs who do to make the change for you. By default sendmail will bounce mail if there is no user with that id, IOW if you don't have a user dan then mail to dan will be bounced. > solution seems to apply to me.

Installing procmail is a good idea, but not for this problem. It will give you more control over local delivery than you've yet dreamed of. :) Dan -- Dan Busarow 949 443 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 Sun Aug 9 11:19:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA07230 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 11:19:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu (jaguar.ir.miami.edu [129.171.32.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA07222 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 11:19:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marcus@miami.edu) Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu ("port 4290"@jaguar.ir.miami.edu) by jaguar.ir.miami.edu (PMDF V5.1-10 #24029) with SMTP id <0EXF00K6KPJDJE@jaguar.ir.miami.edu> for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 14:18:49 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sun, 09 Aug 1998 14:18:49 -0400 (EDT) From: "Joe \"Marcus\" Clarke" Subject: Re: FreeBSD boot time In-reply-to: <19980809173836.AAA14205%ha1.rdc1.bc.wave.home.com@cr649276-a.surrey1.bc.wave.home.com> To: Geoff Ludwiczak Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.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 Rebuilding your kernel will do the trick. The problem exists with the defaul disks that are placed off of your secondary IDE controller. If you don't have any disks off of it, remove them from the kernel config and rebuild. By saying IDE disks exist when they don't, FreeBSD tries to probe for them, and the timeout is pretty long. Only include the disks (cdroms) that you have attached to your controllers.

Edit /sys/i386/isa/wd.c, around line 105; change TIMEOUT from 10000 to around 3000 - 4000, then recompile your kernel. That'll cut the probe time by 1/3.

Well, I've never tried this, but I have been told by others that this would reduce boot time. That said, I don't know what I'm talking about. But thankfully, I'll be corrected if wrong. The kernel, as it arrives, contains more devices than you would normally use. That's so it will work. Once you have it working, you can remove the devices you don't actually have. That should reduce the boot time. I haven't trid this yet, but I will. It's at the top of a long list of low priorities. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 13:16:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA19159 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 13:16:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclops.xtra.co.nz (cyclops.xtra.co.nz [202.27.184.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA19154 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 13:16:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from junkmale@pop3.xtra.co.nz) Received: from wocker (210-55-210-87.ipnets.xtra.co.nz [210.55.210.87]) by cyclops.xtra.co.nz (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id IAA20066; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 08:15:49 +1200 (NZST) Message-Id: <199808092015.IAA20066@cyclops.xtra.co.nz> From: "Dan Langille" Organization: DVL Software Limited To: Dan Busarow Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 08:15:49 +1200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: receiving mail directly Reply-to: junkmale@xtra.co.nz CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <199808091318.BAA06901@cyclops.xtra.co.nz> In-reply-to: X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 9 Aug 98, at 11:15, Dan Busarow wrote: > > solution seems to apply to me.

Well, permanent in the sense that I don't dial up with a modem. Over the past 6 months or so, it's been down about 3 or 4 times. In such circumstances, my ISP, as the secondary server, would store the mail. Mail would be forwarded to my mail server by my ISP when the connection returned. A curly one: My connection may be permanent. But my IP is not. It's assigned via DHCP.

I guess you meant virtual terminals and not xterms, which are quite different things... In /etc/ttys, you can set more virtual consoles by addings lines like: ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure # Virtual terminals ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ttyv2 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ... ttyv ... The generic kernel allows by default up to 16 virtual consoles.

Reply-To: psh1@cornell.edu Date: Sun, 09 Aug 1998 18:03:04 -0700 From: Peter Haight Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've got a FreeBSD box that I use as a router for a small house network. I recently got some IP addresses and my new ISP calls my ISDN TA whenever there are packets for my network. I have two questions. 1. How do I setup this kind of two way ppp connection where it dials into the ISP when I have an outgoing packet and it accepts calls from my ISP when there is an incoming packet? 2. The ISP has given me an 8 IP subnet. Their router routes all packets to one address which is the other end of the PPP line. In order to do this I had to use two IP addresses for my router. One was the IP address on the local lan and the other is the one it gets from the PPP line. Is there some way to avoid this? Can I set the PPP link up as some kind of bridge instead? Here's what the setup looks like (with fake IPs): 10.0.1.120 - ISP's router IP. 10.0.0.129 - Local router IP on PPP to ISP. 10.0.0.134 - Local router IP on local network. 10.0.0.130 - Some host on the local network. The router's routing table looks like this: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 10.0.1.120 UGSc 1 1 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 0 lo0 10.0.1.120 10.0.0.129 UH 2 0 tun0 10.0.0.128/29 link#1 UC 0 0 10.0.0.130 0:e0:29:c:66:8 UHLW 2 4724 ed0 1036 10.0.0.134 0:40:5:1d:3d:d5 UHLW 3 10 lo0 10.0.0.135 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 2 59 ed0 Here is the output from ifconfig with the PPP link up. ed0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.134 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 10.0.0.135 ether 00:40:05:1d:3d:d5 lp0: flags=8810 mtu 1500 tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.129 --> 10.0.1.120 netmask 0xffffff00 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 9 18:39:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA25358 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 18:39:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rohan.sdsu.edu (rohan.sdsu.edu [130.191.3.100]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA25351 for ; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 18:39:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from antonel@rohan.sdsu.edu) Received: (from antonel@localhost) by rohan.sdsu.edu (8.8.7/8.7.3) id SAA04700 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 9 Aug 1998 18:39:04 -0700 (PDT) Date: Sun, 9 Aug 1998 18:39:04 -0700 (PDT) From: antonel Message-Id: <199808100139.SAA04700@rohan.sdsu.edu> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Guys, I'm stuck.

I went through the same thing. The port for fetchmail doesn't list python as a dependency (it explains somewhere that python is only for the configuration GUI, which isn't essential), but the installation fails if you don't have it. I went in and edited the fetchmail Makefiles (and copied and gzipped a "missing" manpage file) and got it to install for me, simply without the fetchmailconf program. I didn't want to install Tk because I don't have X running on this machine because it's a server of sorts. >So I tried the package. Well, I've got that, untarred it. Now what do I >do with it?

I can't *find* the documention. man was *first* thing I tried. The *last* thing I tried was asking *where* the documentation is. In between I tried other stuff. The problem was I can't find no FM. The problem is that the manual is not installed. I went to the website to look up the fetchmail manual, but it's not there either. I just now checked the pkg directory. There's a man directory there with fetchmail docs in it. I've cp'd the files over to /usr/share/man/man1 and now have the manuals online. That said, I know where the manual is now.

I must admit I was confused when I started reading about fetchmailconf and Tk, both of which require X. Bummer. I'll give up on the port now.

When installing the package [but without success] I remember looking up package in the handbook, but found nothing. Searching for pkg_add works though. I found 4.5. What to do when a port does not work. Perhaps a section named "Packages" is appropriate? I've just tried the pkg_add. And it worked. But I believe events have overtaken us.

Probably the easiest way is to check the Makefiles... ah: # NOTE: The fetchmailconf program (an interactive program for # writing .fetchmailrc files) requires Python, found in the Ports # Collection under lang/python. The fetchmail program itself # does not need Python, so there is no RUN_DEPENDS for Python in # this Makefile. Just to see if this was correct, I made and installed the package. I had no problems. This was with the latest version (updated 26 July). If you have problems with that version, let me know.

If it's the latter, you will need to 'checkout' a copy of the source code somewhere, and then make that. Something like # mkdir /usr/src # cd /usr/src # cvs -d /home/ncvs checkout -r RELENG_2_2 -d . src That last line runs 'cvs', telling it that the file repository is '/home/ncvs', that it should 'checkout' the files, place them in '.', which is the current directory, and that the FreeBSD 'src' module should be retrieved. The version (revision) retrieved is 'RELENG_2_2', which corresponds with -stable. Once the files have been checked out, you can then run 'make world', as detailed in the tutorial.

I have ca. 30 webservers running happily on three machines (x86 Solaris and FreeBSD). No special attention required, they just run. Now the University administration wants a webserver for sensitive data, accessed only behind the firewall, that separates the administration network from the university network. They asked me (the University WWW representative) for advice. Under the restrictions that they have to - access Oracle and Ingres databases - have several online-forms, from simple mail-feedbacks up to user-dependant database queries and updates etc. I told them to get a Unix workstation - any kind of commercial unix will do. If I remember correctly I told them to get a cheap Solaris machine (SUN or x86). I mean: I/O is a no-issue, but they need professional support, which is why I didn't recommend FreeBSD. Support is very important for administrations and the like... I recommended Unix because of the highly dynamic contents of the pages (Query forms based on user-accounts, built online via CGI) and the database interaction (imho this interaction needs to be highly customized and I don't trust MS ISAPI for such a task) Guess what: It'll be NT. The reasons as they were told to me: 1) The university administration already runs a TCP/IP based NT network and they want to do all the security stuff based on the NT accounts (Yeah, I TOLD them what this means for the security of the network) 2) Administrations need solutions that are completely standardized. By 'completely' they mean, that scripts written by the staff are a complete no-no. The staff could be changing and the scripts aren't maintained anymore. So no Perl scripts, no add-ons like PHP for the database stuff etc. (Yeah, I TOLD them what database interaction means without customized scripts) 3) They already have lots NT users, so teaching one of them to become WWW administrator shouldn't be too hard ... (Yeah, I TOLD them ...) 4) An NT WWW server surely fits MUCH better into the existing NT network (At that point I didn't know whether to laugh or to cry ...) Well, I didn't try to convince them any longer, when I heard their reasons. Best of all: Apart from me, they didn't ask anyone else for advice. They came up with that all by themselves. Still, it's got to be NT. And yes: I handed them the Kirch article. What did I do? Despite my job of being the one who helps all the University staff out of their WWW troubles, I told them quite clearly, that I won't help them with problems. That's fine, I was told. So instead of running a virtual server on one of my machines, they buy another server and think of hiring another employee just to run that server in case the users can't cope with it. That's about $60.000 a year just to avoid using Unix. *shrug* Oh - and I'm sure that they'll eventually convert back to Unix. Last information I heard: I had to explain the NT user that was appointed to manage the admistration-WWW-project the meaning of HTML ("What's it for?") and had to recommend some courses to him ... nuff said. I mean: Here I am. 10 years of Internet experience, 5 years of WWW experience, 9 years of being a Unix-sysadmin, Masters degree in computer science ... and then this single story tells me how much my advice is valued. -Walter -- Walter Hafner_______________________________ hafner@in.tum.de *CLICK* The best observation I can make is that the BSD Daemon logo is _much_ cooler than that Penguin :-) (Donald Whiteside) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 04:37:58 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA26521 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 04:37:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA [132.204.2.102]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA26516 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 04:37:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from beaupran@JSP.UMontreal.CA) Received: from epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca (epsom.JSP.UMontreal.CA [132.204.45.25]) by harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id HAA28332; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 07:37:35 -0400 (EDT) Received: from outpost.nada.org (derby.jsp.umontreal.ca [132.204.45.26]) by epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca via SMTP (951211.SGI.8.6.12.PATCH1502/JSP1789) id HAA05960; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 07:37:33 -0400 Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 07:39:33 -0400 (EDT) From: Spidey X-Sender: beaupran@outpost.nada.org Reply-To: Spidey To: "Jose M.

I have a backup of all fylesystems obtained with DUMP, > How can I do now to extend /usr?, newfs -s maybe?. Regards. i really don't think it is a solution. I did the thing. And it was freespace that I was adding at the end of my /usr... All the stuff is on disklabel. 1- Make sure your backups are OK... I don't know DUMP, but I know that it is a risky procedure. 2- Check disklabel -r /dev/sd0s2. (you have 2.2.5R or lower uh?, or else your sd0a would be sd0s2a, I think...:). With disklabel, you'll see the size and offset of your partitions. One problem is that your /var is after your /usr, which means we got to make some room, which implies that you BACKUP /var, because it's gonna be *deleted*. 'En resume': /var, /usr and /home will be deleted. Back them up. Double check to see if you have the necessary software to restore these on **other** partitions than these 3!!! Then what you will do is, in single-user (not necessarly needed, but take no chaces...), edit the disklabel with: disklabel -r -e /dev/sd0s2 You may need to mount certain filesystems, 'cause disklabel uses a text editor (vi generally), and files in /tmp... In your case this shouldn't be a problem, 'cause /tmp is on a seperate partition. However, *** make sure you have vi under your path!!! **** There is the 'fun part'... You edit the sizes and offsets as your convenience. As I understood, you don't need to change the /var size, so just add the size you're adding to /usr to the *offset* of /var. You may also like to put /var *before* /usr, if you ever need (plan?) to do this again, but this may imply things that I am noot aware of (fstab changes etc...) You'll also have to add the adding size to the offset of /home, and substract it from the size of /home (to your calculators!!!! we don't want any mistake here!!!) Then: newfs /dev/sd0s2f newfs /dev/sd0s2g newfs /dev/sd0s2h This should give you the 3 new filesystems, empty, ready to be restored! There is only oone thing I would be worried about. The -11000 blocks "available"... I'm not sure as of how to handle this... So, briefly this goes on like: 1- Backup /var /usr and /home. 2- Install necessary software on a 'neutral zone', let's say /. a- vi or another editor that will be in $EDITOR b- disklabel, newfs (I think it's already on /bin, but...) c- you might also like a fixit and install floppies, if something goes wrong. 3- Go single-user, and mount necessary partitions. I don't think it would be a very good idea to mount /var, /home or /usr... Try to avoid it. 4- disklabel -r -e /dev/sd0s2 5- Edit to it your needs. [optionnal]- Swap /var and /usr 6- Wish. 7- newfs /home , /var and /usr (don't use this syntax! :) 8- Restore the partitions. 9- Modify /etc/fstab if you swap /var and /usr. 10- Be happy. 11- Quickly fill up /usr 12- 'GOTO 1-' :) Give me feedback!

I'll assume that the partitions are laid out in alphabetical order on the disk, and that newfs will DESTROY the contents of any partition on which it is run. Currently: size in K offset in blocks /usr 248175 X /var 695311 X + 2*(248175) /home 2244926 X + 2*(248175 + 695311) Later: /usr 348175 X /var 695311 X + 2*(248175) + 200000 /home 2144926 X + 2*(248175 + 695311) + 200000 /var is saved somewhere. /home is empty. We shall "slide" var and home 200K blocks down the disk, shrinking home (sd0s2h) and expanding sd0s2f (usr). Go to single user mode. (kill -TERM 1) Umount /home. Redefine home (sd0s2h) to have a size 200K blocks smaller than at present, and an offset 200K farther into the disk. (use disklabel -r -e sd0s2 ). Newfs the new sd0s2h partition, and mount it on /home Copy the current /usr partiton to this new /home. (build it as the whole tree, not a tar archive or something else. (cd /usr; tar cpf - . )|(cd /home; tar xvpf -) Redefine (disklabel -r -e sd0s2 ) the /var (sd0s2g) partition to have an offset 200K blocks larger than at present. newfs the new /var partition, and restore it from wherever it is stored. (I'd just make a tar file on / or somewhere on disk-- you've got plenty of space on /. (Don't use /tmp -- maybe you'll get a reboot by mistake). Remount the /var partition. (We're done with it). umount /usr umount /home mount the home (sd0s2h) partiton temporarily on /usr, if you need man pages, or other stuff on /usr. (vi from /usr/bin? who knows?) (mount /dev/sd0s2h /usr) disklabel the usr (sd0s2f) partition, adding 200K blocks to the size. Leave offset alone. newfs the new sd0s2f partition. Mount it on /mnt Restore the files: (assuming that the home partition is on /usr) (cd /usr; tar cpf - . )|(cd /mnt; tar xvpf -) umount /dev/sd0s2h umount /mnt mount /dev/sd0s2f /usr mount /home (maybe newfs it later -- quicker than rm -r *) return to multiuser mode. Check operation. Then clean out /home. Check my work before preceding. Some people say I'm not "definitive" enough. You may wish to replace "200000" and "200K" with a number of blocks that is an integer multiple of cylinders. Keep those backups -- it's too easy to ruin a disk layout with disklabel.

However, judging by the content of that list, I guess that this FreeBSD-questions list may be a more appropriate forum. Can anyone advise me if my system is repairable ? I was running FreeBSD 2.2.5 and W95 happily on my machine. wd0 contained W95, and wd1 contained FreeBSD Suddenly while running W95, everything went "pop" and I wasn't able to boot either. So, booting from floppy, using the "fixit" option, and running fdisk I get the following :- fdisk wd0 *** working on device /dev/rwd0 *** parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=4095 heads=16 sectors/track=63 1008 blks/cyl) Figure below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=4095 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information for partition 1 is: Information for partition 2 is: Information for partition 3 is: Information for partition 4 is: fdisk wd1 *** working on device /dev/rwd1 *** parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=4095 heads=16 sectors/track=63 1008 blks/cyl) Figure below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=4095 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information for partition 1 is: sysid 128, (Minix 1.1 ....... 1.4a) start -61531, size 63 (0 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head0; end: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head1; Information for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag d1 beg: cyl 0/ sector 62/ head 251; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 Information for partition 3 is: Information for partition 4 is: sysid 165, (FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 1, size 4127759 (2015 Meg), flag 80 beg: cyl 0/ sector 2/ head 0; end: cyl 1022/ sector 63/ head 15 My understanding of the above is limited, but I get the impression that my W95 (wd0) installation is gone, but my FreeBSD is still there in slice 4 of wd1. Based on the above information, can anyone confirm that my FreeBSD installation is still there, and that the challenge is how to boot it. I wrote a boot manager to the first disk (wd0), and now when I boot I get the following F5 .... disk 2 Default: F5 F5 .... disk 2 Default: F? Alternatively, would anyone like to suggest that the system is lost, and a fresh installation is required. Any advice on how to proceed, or where appropriate documentation may be found would be appreciated.

If you're down, but still findable via DNS, the mail will be spooled on the sender's system. Unless the downtimes are for more than 3 or 4 days (sendmail has a default 5 day wait before bounce) that's all you should need.

What happens if they give you a new IP address and your old one goes to someone else?

You can hurt yourself using it but wielded properly it can make your life a lot easier. Just way overkill for refusing email to certain addresses.

I installed freebsd, the kernel and manual, from dos using the .bin files downloaded from the internet. The installation disk was not able to download any packages from the freebsd website even after I connected manually to the net under the "term" mode. After much work, I was able to get ppp to logon to the net. Typing "shell" after the "ppp ON >" prompt, the program shelled back to the "myname>" prompt. Typing "ftp", the program went into the ftp mode. After typing "open ftp.roxen.com" at the "ftp>" prompt, the program returned the error message: ftp: ftp.roxen.com: unknown host. No matter what website was requested, the program returned the same error. Below is a portion of the ppp.conf file: set phone (ISP phone number) set login (login sequence) set timeout 0 set ifaddr (DNS 1) (DNS 2) 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 delete all add 0 0 HISADDR set openmode passive I had to set the openmode to passive, otherwise the program disconnected after 10 seconds. I need to download a browser, xwindows, and other programs, but cannot without ftp. There is no mention of this problem in the handbook, manual, faq's, or newsproups. An alternative would be to download the unix files into a dos directory, and then transfer them. Following the directions in one of the faq's, I typed the following: # cd /dev # ./makedev wd0s2 # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 / The cursor would then move to the beginning of the next line.

I installed freebsd, the kernel and manual, from dos using the .bin files downloaded from the internet. The installation disk was not able to download any packages from the freebsd website even after I connected manually to the net under the "term" mode. After much work, I was able to get ppp to logon to the net. Typing "shell" after the "ppp ON >" prompt, the program shelled back to the "myname>" prompt. Typing "ftp", the program went into the ftp mode. After typing "open ftp.roxen.com" at the "ftp>" prompt, the program returned the error message: ftp: ftp.roxen.com: unknown host. No matter what website was requested, the program returned the same error. Below is a portion of the ppp.conf file: set phone (ISP phone number) set login (login sequence) set timeout 0 set ifaddr (DNS 1) (DNS 2) 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 delete all add 0 0 HISADDR set openmode passive I had to set the openmode to passive, otherwise the program disconnected after 10 seconds. I need to download a browser, xwindows, and other programs, but cannot without ftp. There is no mention of this problem in the handbook, manual, faq's, or newsproups. An alternative would be to download the unix files into a dos directory, and then transfer them. Following the directions in one of the faq's, I typed the following: # cd /dev # ./makedev wd0s2 # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 / The cursor would then move to the beginning of the next line.

So for me, I just brought the machine up with a new IP address, netmask, etc. and "it just worked". Bruce. PS. Security tip: When you bring your machine up on the cable modem network, make it "as secure as possible", especially if you want to leave it up 24/7. You can start by turning off all the services you don't use. I have tracks of a lot of Bad Guys (TM) doing portscans and other random nasty things to my @Home-connected machine. --==_Exmh_-817927288P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNc8rIKjOOi0j7CY9AQE/9gP/du8+/NIwmOiiD08AU3Qda7IykBQIQxLC JsA2GUsxG9limUkBQSrnKx8PR69yoSRAppcY7/ySR0C1IFRrGNVJxyExrshIaSLt NBHFPq4yGgintaNt7sECkY8nIOVr9OgfFONM9cRe0udydnaCFzKP6A4Q2IshjcW1 7amycT/Qj5M= =XKPw -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --==_Exmh_-817927288P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 10:19:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA04689 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 10:19:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pau-amma.whistle.com (s205m64.whistle.com [207.76.205.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA04684 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 10:19:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw@whistle.com) Received: (from dhw@localhost) by pau-amma.whistle.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id KAA12074 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 10:17:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw) Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 10:17:50 -0700 (PDT) From: David Wolfskill Message-Id: <199808101717.KAA12074@pau-amma.whistle.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD In-Reply-To: <199808081112.HAA05016@lucy.bedford.net> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >Date: Sat, 8 Aug 1998 07:12:01 -0400 (EDT) >From: CyberPeasant >Brandon Lockhart wrote: >> You can only have one operating system loaded at a single point in time >> (correct me if I am wrong). >You're wrong :) The IBM mainframe OS, MVS, will run several OS's on >the same machine, simultaneously.

FreeBSD actually can support truely un-numbered routing.. however I'm not sure how it would be implemented in this case. (it's done with a command somewhat like "route add default -interface tun0" (I haven't done it for a while) however it still leads to problems because locally generated packets will still have the address negotiated, and if that is not correct packets can still not get back to you.. it sounds as if your ISP has gone from static addresses to dynamic addresses, which means that you should check that you are allowing the ppp daemon to negotiate everything, and are not specifying too much. julian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 11:23:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA13101 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 11:23:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from clubserv.rp-online.de (clubserv.rp-online.de [149.221.232.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA13096 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 11:23:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from veith@bigfoot.com) Received: from bigfoot.com (as8-pri6.rp-plus.de [149.221.239.134]) by clubserv.rp-online.de (8.9.0.Beta5/8.9.0.Beta5) with ESMTP id UAA01929 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 20:24:21 +0200 (METDST) Message-ID: <35CF3AD6.E7AF42BF@bigfoot.com> Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 20:24:22 +0200 From: Stefan Veith Organization: --- X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Coexistance of gcc-2.7.2.1 and gcc-2.8.1 ?

What I've done is install the firewall options and used > the simple method. How did you get that tracking? Hi Dan-- I'm not doing anything real sophisticated, sorry if I gave the wrong impression. Not to give away *too* many details...I keep an "open" firewall configuration and have tcpwrappers (installed from the port) log and reject interesting connection attempts to services such as telnet, tftp, and so on. Note that sshd does its own logging. Also, I frequently have tcpdump running in case something shows up that I didn't think to log, as well as: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.log_in_vain=1 sysctl -w net.inet.udp.log_in_vain=1 I tend to like the "paranoia" approach to probes where I can see activity, rather than the "stick my head in the sand" approach, where I can be protected, but otherwise oblivious. Where you fall in this spectrum is your personal choice, and I don't advocate one way over the other. A quick perusal of the ipfw manpage implies that you can get the same kind of logging as I'm doing via tcpwrappers. There's (IMHO) a very nice writeup by Jan B. Koum at: http://www.best.com/~jkb/howto.txt If this discussion continues, it probably ought to go over to -security... Bruce. PS. Let me also give a big plug for the bugtraq and freebsd-security mailing lists for info on vulnerabilities as they come up. PPS. There are probably safer/easier/cleaner/better-tasting/less-fattening ways to deal with this problem, but this general approach has worked for me for about the last five years or so, across multiple platforms. --==_Exmh_-670802542P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNc9xcajOOi0j7CY9AQFdfAP+K5NwSCNBFnsbfYrswyEEVMxk7mCh9v/p ztB/hZ7hKebG6iX4ebbEKeEXGqdIWK+9V9xHBjGG81PVvgyK9FN1PUHJGxooauTS n5HYYORwM6lJm8GnSMOxtf8C9bC74db5fJGwTpVeeutE/+exBtWo3omhGkpyOSGx o0qntKopDRE= =vA33 -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --==_Exmh_-670802542P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 15:40:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA11115 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 15:40:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from infowest.com (infowest.com [204.17.177.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA11089; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 15:40:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from agifford@infowest.com) Received: from infowest.com (eq.net [207.49.60.250]) by infowest.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA02081; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:39:38 -0600 (MDT) Message-ID: <35CF769F.68C80A22@infowest.com> Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:39:27 -0600 From: "Aaron D.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, Something's weird with my ipfw setup. It seems to work perfectly as I expected except for this tiny bit of weirdness. My ipfw setup lets me ping and traceroute and telnet to my heart's content EXCEPT when the remote address is within the same class C address space as my own dynamically assigned IP number. Then I get "sendto: Permission denied." errors left and right. Why is this? I checked my netmask via 'netstat -in' and sure enough, my netmask is 255.255.255.255. What's going on here? Looking at the output of 'ipfw -at list' shows me that the packets are hitting the FINAL deny statement. But when I ping/traceroute/telnet to other addresses, everything works just fine. I'm running 2.2.7-STABLE as of July 25th. I've included my /etc/rc.firewall script below that shows my configuration, but I really don't think this is an ipfw config problem.

There is a maximum of 8 partitions that can be defined this way (a-h). 2. The B partition is only used for swap. 3. Letters C and D are reserved for the slice partition and the whole-disk partition in BSD parlance, respectively. 4. I bet I'd get people trying to disklabel an extended MSDOS partition. So in the end it's confusing to the end user. Arguably the extra-slice system is confusing, but us old UNIX hats won't try anything silly on a DOS partition. :) One of the great things about open source OS's is that if you don't like it, rewrite it. ;-) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 16:39:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA19948 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:39:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA19916 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:39:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA13589; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:38:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:38:38 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Spidey cc: Luigi Rizzo , Questions=answers Subject: Re: 2.7: problems with Luigi pnp...

There is a maximum of 8 partitions that can be defined this way (a-h). Why? Even if, for some reason, there's a limitation in the UNIX file system software that precludes more than 8, there should not be any problem doing this for MS-DOS "extended partitions" within MSDOSFS. >2. The B partition is only used for swap. >3. Letters C and D are reserved for the slice partition and the > whole-disk partition in BSD parlance, respectively. >4. I bet I'd get people trying to disklabel an extended MSDOS partition. Those are the conventions for a UNIX partition. But why apply them to other kinds? It's a good idea, methinks, to allow as much interoperability as possible, and to make sure that the device letters reflect the actual structure of whatever file system is being used. Otherwise, support for other systems, such as NTFS, etc., could be hampered. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 16:46:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA21340 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:46:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from popcorn.brookdale.cc.nj.us (brookdale.cc.nj.us [204.240.250.200]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA21310 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 16:45:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rcapenegro@brookdale.cc.nj.us) Received: from rcapenegro ([204.240.250.59]) by popcorn.brookdale.cc.nj.us (Netscape Mail Server v2.02) with SMTP id AAA12605 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 19:55:52 -0400 Message-ID: <000d01bdc4b8$e9083e20$03000004@rcapenegro.brookdale.cc.nj.us> From: rcapenegro@brookdale.cc.nj.us (Rich Capenegro) To: Subject: Can't boot after installation!

You'll have to checkout an entire source tree to roll your own installer; check the sysinstall manpage for details. You can view it by running 'groff -Tascii /usr/src/release/sysinstall/sysinstall.8 | more'. > I just want to know where I stand "legally" (and, of course, also what the > FreeBSD people think of it.) If you want to sell it, you'll have to defer that to those more experienced. :) But by all means go for it.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings: I have been using FreeBSD 2.1.7 for nearly a year and a half, without any problems related to pico or text editors in general. However, I recently did a full reinstall of freebsd over FTP, and am now running 2.2.7. Ever since the upgrade, pico has been behaving rather oddly; inserting uppercase U's in the top line of the file I am editing (see example below). Has anyone heard of this happening? The number of U's vary from 3 or 4, right up to 50 or so. It seems the more I edit, the more U's are written to the top of the file. The U's are not visible immediately after I save; I have to exit, and re-view (using cat, pico, or another text editor.). The U's can be removed by editing them out, and don't seem to re-appear until some other part of the file is edited. I checked the bug reports but didn't see anything listed on this matter. Is there something wrong with my configuration, or should I be filling out a bug report? Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Regards, Andrew Stevens. Example (after I write, exit pico, and cat the file) using the first two lines of my afterstep configuration file. - Note that the original line is still intact, just with a ton of U's in front of it.

When I invoke "dhclient ed0", then do a "ifconfig -a", ed0 is as expected, but ed1 shows "inet 0.0.0.0 netmast 0xff00000000". I then must configure ed1 manually. Bummer.

The dhclient.conf file contains a reference to ep0 which I did not change after installing DHCP. Why it worked, I don't know. I definitely don't have a 3Com nic here. I was curious as to why DHCP was working with an incorrect device as the manual says that it won't interrogate if a device is specified on the command line. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 17:42:32 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA01190 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 17:42:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclops.xtra.co.nz (cyclops.xtra.co.nz [202.27.184.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA01172 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 17:42:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from junkmale@pop3.xtra.co.nz) Received: from wocker (210-55-210-87.ipnets.xtra.co.nz [210.55.210.87]) by cyclops.xtra.co.nz (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id MAA10419 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 12:42:04 +1200 (NZST) Message-Id: <199808110042.MAA10419@cyclops.xtra.co.nz> From: "Dan Langille" Organization: DVL Software Limited To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Tue, 11 Aug 1998 12:42:03 +1200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: ipfw rules Reply-to: junkmale@xtra.co.nz X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm using ipfw and natd for my home subnet.

I installed freebsd, the kernel and manual, from dos using the .bin files downloaded from the internet. The installation disk was not able to download any packages from the freebsd website even after I connected manually to the net under the "term" mode. After much work, I was able to get ppp to logon to the net. Typing "shell" after the "ppp ON >" prompt, the program shelled back to the "myname>" prompt. Typing "ftp", the program went into the ftp mode. After typing "open ftp.roxen.com" at the "ftp>" prompt, the program returned the error message: ftp: ftp.roxen.com: unknown host. No matter what website was requested, the program returned the same error. Below is a portion of the ppp.conf file: set phone (ISP phone number) set login (login sequence) set timeout 0 set ifaddr (DNS 1) (DNS 2) 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 delete all add 0 0 HISADDR set openmode passive I had to set the openmode to passive, otherwise the program disconnected after 10 seconds. I need to download a browser, xwindows, and other programs, but cannot without ftp. There is no mention of this problem in the handbook, manual, faq's, or newsproups. An alternative would be to download the unix files into a dos directory, and then transfer them. Following the directions in one of the faq's, I typed the following: # cd /dev # ./makedev wd0s2 # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 / The cursor would then move to the beginning of the next line. If I typed /dos or any directory, instead of /, the program would return error messages. At the next line there was no response to any commands such as cp or dd. Any advice would be appreciated. I want to get rid of msdos and windows. Because unix is new to me, please make your instructions specific. Thanks.

It would be a quite great adding, if you ask me... One of the things we're planning for Vinum is an extendible UFS. This won't help you here, unfortunately.

I agree with what you said below, not with this. It's a problem to run an editor in single-user mode. You also have an alternative. Do this any time (it doesn't change the disks). # disklabel -r /dev/sd0s2 >myoldlabel # vi myoldlabel # mv myoldlabel mynewlabel Make the changes, and make sure that mynewlabel is on the root file system.

If it's vi, you'll need /usr/lib/libc.so.. But /usr isn't mounted. What you can do here is a nasty trick: # cp /usr/lib/libc.so* /tmp # umount /usr # mv /tmp /usr/lib/libc.so* Huh? Yes, it works. You'll copy them to the root file system. This assumes, of course, that your /tmp is on the root file system.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In order to save myself some time, does anyone here have a program that I can add users on my machine via the web. I would put the .HTML under a .htaccess, and hide the .CGI file. I would basically like something configurable, so I can add an entry to the password file, the apache configuration, and the db for the nameserver, rehash httpd and named, and then log it to a file. I know what I could do, it is just that I am not an expert programer. What I am thinking is a script that run's in SETUID "mode", setuid's to root, run's "useradd" or some other program, depending on your system, then "echo"'s or write's to the file all the necessary text, then rehashes them all. Then just cleanly exits. I know this is a big security hole, but I will be keeping it very secured, and most likely on a machine behind a VPnetwork, and use NIS. The web page should be the easyily configured part, basically making a form looking something like: Username: _______________ Full Name: _________________ Extension: ______________ Home Dir: __________________ Password: _______________ Again: __________________ Optional VHOST: ________________________ [ Add this user ] [ Clear Form ] Basically, fullname and extension go in the username's gecos field, homedir and password go in the regular field's, a uid is automatically generated, aswell as a gid, then the homedir is appended with a section if the Optional VHOST section is NOT blank. ,-----------------------------------------------------------------. | //// "Anything I say represents only my opinion." | | (o o) / | | ,---ooO--(_)--Ooo---------------------------------------------, | | | BRANDON LOCKHART | | | `-------------------------------------------------------------' | | brandon.lockhart@usinternetworking.com brandon@engulf.net | | Work: (410) 897-4551 Pager: (888) xxx-xxxx | `-----------------------------------------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 10 18:56:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA11354 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 18:56:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cybercity.com (cybercity.com [209.122.14.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id SAA11265 for ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 18:55:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jock@cybercity.com) X-ROUTED: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 21:28:06 -0500 Received: from cybercity.com [12.127.208.70] by cybercity.com with smtp id BFBLAIAE ; Mon, 10 Aug 1998 21:27:08 -0500 Message-ID: <35CFA1E7.F0803B87@cybercity.com> Date: Mon, 10 Aug 1998 21:44:07 -0400 From: jock X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: BAD MAGIC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG we are trying to load a circle mud to onto freebsd...and we keep getting a bad magic error...any ideas.

Since it worked for me, it is hard to figure out what problems you are encountering. Since fetchmail is useful and popular software, I very much want the port to work correctly for everyone.

I was not able to get the install working -- I just copied the CD-ROM. From memory, as root with the CD-ROM mounted on /cdrom 1. cp -r /cdrom/applix /usr/local/lib (need 500MB free to do this) 2. echo /usr/local/lib > /etc/applixprefix 3. cd /usr/local/bin 4. ln -s /usr/local/lib/applix/bin/applix . 5. Modify /usr/local/lib/applix/bin/applix as follows a. Change ``ldd'' to ``/compat/linux/usr/bin/ldd'' b. Change ``/bin/bash'' to ``/usr/local/bin/bash'' (if necessary) Applixware took about 500MB of disk space. By removing unwanted foreign language support (spelling dictionaries), I was able to reduce the disk requirements to about 240MB. Here's what I did to free up 260MB (I left support in for a few languages). 1. cd /usr/local/lib/applix/axdata 2. /bin/rm -rf grm frn 3. cd /usr/local/lib/applix/axlang 4. /bin/rm -f brz* cfr* dan* dut* fin* frn* 5. /bin/rm -f itl* nrw* nyn* prt* spn* swd* Hope this helps.

According to the sysctl(8) manpage, "sysctl -A" will give what you want. But I didn't know about the above until I read jkb's writeup.

Just wondering if someone can offer coherent instructions on how to install XWindows in the following situation: 1. From a cd-rom--specifically, Walnut Creek's fbsd2.2.6 four disc set. 2. Onto a dualboot pentium, sharing with win95. I've done a fair bit of reading actually, but no two sources seem to say the same thing. It's disconcerting. Incidentally, where I've looked so far is: 1. A doc on the Walnut Creek cd: "Building and Installing the X Window System" by S. Gildea 2. The readme provided via the /stand/sysinstall utility. 3. XFree86.org's "README for XFree86 on FreeBSD" 4. XFree86.org's "Quick-Start Guide to XFree86 Setup" So far, what I've done is go into the post-install configuration screen, selected the "Distributions" item, then selected the "XFree86 3.3.2 Distribution, then selected the following: under Basic: bin, cfg, doc, html, lib, man, set under Server: SVGA, S3V under Fonts: fnts Then I backed out to the FreeBSD Configuration Menu where I selected some Packages. Finally, I went into the "XFree86" screen, where I selected "XF86 Setup". Then I got a message about which mouse protocols to use, selected "OK," and finally, there was a screen with the message "Press enter to switch to graphics mode..." I hit enter and waited. After about a minute, I was simply returned to the previous menu. That's as far as I got.

That'd be nameserver queries causing it to dial out. The /etc/daily script has a `netstat -i' in it somewhere that'd cause it to happen. I do not have Sendmail running.

I got a new tape, to make sure that wasn't the problem. I have the density set to "X3B5/88-185A", Blocksize variable. I tried to tar my home directory onto it, which has more than 100M now.

You should also (if you haven't already) check the manual page for ppp ("man ppp" at your shell prompt) and the documentation and mailing list archives on http://www.freebsd.org/ under "Documentation" and "Support," respectively. Best of luck with your PPP woes and with FreeBSD, and thanks for your support! Cheers, nsj %My system is a 486dx IBM clone desktop. I installed freebsd, the kernel and %manual, from dos using the .bin files downloaded from the internet. The %installation disk was not able to download any packages from the freebsd %website even after I connected manually to the net under the "term" mode. % %After much work, I was able to get ppp to logon to the net. Typing "shell" %after the "ppp ON >" prompt, the program shelled back to the "myname>" %prompt. Typing "ftp", the program went into the ftp mode. After typing %"open ftp.roxen.com" at the "ftp>" prompt, the program returned the error %message: % %ftp: ftp.roxen.com: unknown host. % %No matter what website was requested, the program returned the same error. %Below is a portion of the ppp.conf file: % %set phone (ISP phone number) %set login (login sequence) %set timeout 0 %set ifaddr (DNS 1) (DNS 2) 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 %delete all %add 0 0 HISADDR %set openmode passive % %I had to set the openmode to passive, otherwise the program disconnected %after 10 seconds.

Looks reasonable, though I've given up specifying a block size. But that wouldn't be causing the problem you're seeing.

Looks like Windows 95 corrupted itself and took the partions with it. Your best bet would be to try to rebuild your partions using the exact same parameters you had before. At least make sure your FreeBSD partion is the same. Windows 95 will have to be reinstalled no matter what. Well, that's not exactly true, it might be saved but it would be best and far less time consuming to reinstall.

I need to download a browser, xwindows, and other programs, but cannot without ftp. There is no mention of this problem in the handbook, manual, faq's, or newsproups. An alternative would be to download the unix files into a dos directory, and then transfer them. Following the directions in one of the faq's, I typed the following: # cd /dev # ./makedev wd0s2 # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 / The cursor would then move to the beginning of the next line. If I typed /dos or any directory, instead of /, the program would return error messages. At the next line there was no response to any commands such as cp or dd. Any advice would be appreciated. I want to get rid of msdos and windows. Because unix is new to me, please make your instructions specific. Thanks.

We also have a number of other machines that connect to this via TCP/IP. We have another machine that acts as a router which is not a FreeBSD machine. When we try to connect to the FreeBSD machine internally via FTP or rlogin, the FreeBSD machine tries to connect to the Internet via our router. Our router then tries to dial up onto the Internet via ISDN. Until the connection is made, it refuses to accept any internal connections. All our internal machines are set up with the IP address 192.9.200.xxx. The gateway setting for the FreeBSD machine is set to the correct IP address of the gateway machine and the DNS setting is set to the DNS setting of our ISP. We wondered if this was the problem - should we have an internal DNS server or have we missed something elementary ? Apologies for the apparent dim-ness of this question as we are new to Unix / FreeBSD but we are willing to learn.

If you are using xdm or some other display-manager (don't confuse it with window-manager), then make the changes in ~/.xsession If you are using a session-manager like xsm, then make the changes in the session-menu. Don't panic if this sounds chaotic; in most cases the man-page will tell you where to put an appropriate commandline. I guess "man qvwm" will tell you where to put a commandline that starts qvwm.

Two ways; By default, your system has 3 'virtual' consoles on it, you can switch between them using ALT+F1, F2 and F3. You should see 3 distinct login prompts. You can login to each one and do different things in each session. Alternatively, install 'screen' from the ports system (misc/screen) which will let you manage several virtual screens from within one console. N -- "So it does!" said Pooh. "It goes in!"

(Haven't tried bad144 on FBSD, but have used it on NetBSD in the past.) My impression is that bad144 won't work on a disk whose driver does not support it. At least in the past, only the MFM (old, pre-IDE "ST-506" PeeCee drives) and ESDI drivers (and of course old 8"-14" form-factor Vax drives...) supported bad144-style remapping, and this had to be taken into account at the fdisk stage, involving manually entering "known" bad blocks before disklabel and newfs. In this light, I would say that your ioctl error says simply, "This isn't a bad144 compatible disk." I would say that non-MFM/ESDI disks all fit this category (i.e. IDE/SCSI disks are not bad144-able), but I have seen posts here lately that suggest that people are successfully using bad144 on such disks, to my confusion. Could someone give us a thumbnail sketch of bad144 under FreeBSD? Dave -- Bedford County, PA -- 47,000 polite, friendly Appalachians, 4,000 of whom have concealed-carry permits.

FreeBSD is a full version of BSD "UNIX" and comes with all standard utilities and a whole lot more. A hit every two-three minutes is very low WWW traffic. Moderate levels would be in the two or three hits per second, with heavy being more than 10 per second (or more than a million/day). With FreeBSD, your hardware should be capable of heavy traffic without much trouble. -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 Aug 11 05:52:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA25618 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 05:52:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gatekeeper.tseinc.com (gatekeeper.tseinc.com [209.83.134.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA25613 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 05:52:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jlwest@tseinc.com) Received: (from nobody@localhost) by gatekeeper.tseinc.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) id HAA23059 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 07:51:51 -0500 (CDT) X-Authentication-Warning: gatekeeper.tseinc.com: nobody set sender to using -f Received: from ws2.tse.com(192.168.1.12) by gatekeeper.tseinc.com via smap (V1.3) id sma023055; Tue Aug 11 07:51:29 1998 Message-ID: <005f01bdc526$c220cac0$0c01a8c0@ws2.tse.com> From: "Jay" To: Subject: Amanda 2.4.0p1 and FreeBSD 2.2.7 Date: Tue, 11 Aug 1998 07:51:28 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_005C_01BDC4FC.D910C700" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.2106.4 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_005C_01BDC4FC.D910C700 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Help!

As the name suggests, it is *free*. You may download it from http://www.freebsd.org Information is availible on that site that explains the history of FreeBSD, and how to set it up. If you would prefer, you can purchase FreeBSD on CD-ROM. See http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/freebsd.htm It is very much suited as a web server. Yahoo is a FreeBSD site, as well as Pair.com (largest independent web hosting service). Apache runs quite well. Furthermore, many add-ons availible to Apache will work on FreeBSD. That machine you will be putting it on will require FreeBSD-current to use the dual processors (SMP). It is the cutting-edge development system. It will be released as FreeBSD 3.0 on or about October 15th. Overall, with hits every 2-3 minutes, this machine is overkill. A machine of that size could host many sites. The critical matter is the connection speed to the net. Unless you are serving huge amounts of information, a old Pentium-200 with about 128 Megs RAM would handle it nicely. One of our sites is hosted on a Pentium II 266 Mhz (512Kb cache), 128Mb RAM, 5.8Gb total disk. It handles 250 sites, and the load is only: 9:05AM up 189 days, 22 hrs, 12 users, load averages: 0.05, 0.17, 0.15 Patrick Gardella To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 11 06:13:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA27674 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 06:13:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from online.no (pilt-s.online.no [193.212.1.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA27664 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 06:13:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from havardjv@gudmund.vgs.no) Received: from gealach.myst.no (ti21a21-0106.dialup.online.no [130.67.195.106]) by online.no (8.8.8/8.8.7) with ESMTP id PAA11418 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 15:12:44 +0200 (MET DST) Received: from localhost (hjv@localhost) by gealach.myst.no (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id PAA01908 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 15:15:53 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from havardjv@gudmund.vgs.no) X-Authentication-Warning: gealach.myst.no: hjv owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 11 Aug 1998 15:15:51 +0200 (CEST) From: Haavard Vaagstoel X-Sender: hjv@gealach.myst.no To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Port Problems Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello. My problems with using ports persist, but I'm now able to give a better description of the problem. First of all, this is a 2.2.7-STABLE system upgraded using 'make world' from 2.2.5-RELEASE. X was installed prior to the upgrade. 'uname -a' shows the following, if it can be of any use: FreeBSD gealach.myst.no 2.2.7-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE #0: Mon Aug 10 17:07:03 CEST 1998 hjv@gealach.myst.no:/usr/src/sys/compile/GEALACH i386 The problems occur, it seems, when I try to install a port that depends on X to be installed. The examples below all come from the installation of the freeciv-1.6.3 port. One line of output from 'make install' that's a common factor in all the problem ports is this: ===> freeciv-1.6.3 depends on shared library: X11\.6 - found All seems to work fine, until the 'make install' command outputs ===> Registering installation for freeciv-1.6.3 At this point, the installation seems to freeze, until it runs out of available processes, or available swap space (as was the case when I increased the max number of processes in the kernel). Running 'ps' at this point (after suspending the 'make install') gives this output (excerpts): 265 p3 T 0:00.20 make install 1073 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec cd /usr/ports/games/freeciv && make real-install 1074 p3 T 0:00.20 make real-install 1189 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec cd /usr/ports/games/freeciv && make fake-pkg 1190 p3 T 0:00.18 make fake-pkg 1206 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec if [ ! -d /var/db/pkg/freeciv-1.6.3 ]; then echo "===> Registering installation for freeciv-1.6.3"; 1209 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec if [ ! -d /var/db/pkg/freeciv-1.6.3 ]; then echo "===> Registering installation for freeciv-1.6.3"; 1210 p3 T 0:00.17 make package-depends 1211 p3 T 0:00.01 sort -u 1223 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec for dir in `echo "Xpm\\\\.4\\\\.:/usr/ports/graphics/xpm X11\\\\.6:/usr/ports/x11/XFree86 " | /usr/bin/ 1235 p3 T 0:00.17 make package-name package-depends 1248 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec for dir in `echo "X11\\\\.6:/usr/ports/x11/XFree86 " | /usr/bin/tr '\\040' '\\012' | /usr/bin/sed -e 's 1260 p3 T 0:00.17 make package-name package-depends 1273 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec for dir in `echo "X11\\\\.6:/usr/ports/x11/XFree86 " | /usr/bin/tr '\\040' '\\012' | /usr/bin/sed -e 's 1285 p3 T 0:00.17 make package-name package-depends 1298 p3 T 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec for dir in `echo "X11\\\\.6:/usr/ports/x11/XFree86 " | /usr/bin/tr '\\040' '\\012' | /usr/bin/sed -e 's ...and so on (sorry about the line breaks, had to be that way). These two last processes are running in great numbers (more and more, I guess, that's probably why the system runs out of available processes). Now, if I have managed to provide a detailed enough description of my problem, does anyone have any idea about what's wrong? And, even better, how to fix it? Please cc any replies to me, as I don't read this list regularly.

You really need to do that now. If you're not using NAT, your return packets will go to these people. This is a routing, not a name resolution problem. (TCP/IP routing does not use names--numbers only!) You do need resolver service of some sort. named (aka BIND), part of a larger system of "name resolution". If your internal network is small enough, your needs for name resolution within the LAN might be met with /etc/hosts files. NIS provides a more easily managed named alternative. NIS and /etc/hosts may not be available for non-Unix systems, in which case you will probably need to set up DNS/BIND, i.e. "named". This is picky but not difficult. I would guess that you need to do some reading at this point, in Greg Lehey's "Complete FreeBSD", the handbook, and possibly a book on DNS.

Choose "/dev/sysmouse" as the mouse port and "SysMouse" or "MouseSystems" as the mouse protocol in the X configuration utility. Then the system returns immediately to the "FreeBSD Configuration Menu" without configuring X. If I go to the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 directory, and run XF86Setup, I get the following error message: Ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libXaw.so.6.1" Any Suggestions.

A 386SX-33Mhz with 8MB RAM could easily handle a few "hits every two-three minutes" and more. (*cough*, No, I don't have a machine like that sitting in the corner of a computer lab doing HTTP/DHCP/DNS/SMB-print-serving for the whole lab or anything...) You're about to try and kill an amoeba with Big Bertha. A 486-66 w/ 48MB RAM and a single 2GB SCSI drive handles all of our WWW (CGI too), Squid HTTP cache (200MB), FTP, SMTP (at least several thousand pieces of mail per day), POP3, and DNS traffic, along with me reading mail on it using Pine. The system load when I'm not logged in and doing my stuff rarely ever breaks 0.15, and about the only thing using swap is Squid (25MB) for quick object retrieval. The load/uptime right _now_, with me typing this stuff in is: cdillon@duey [/home/cdillon]> uptime 10:50AM up 32 days, 22:37, 3 users, load averages: 0.04, 0.06, 0.06 'top' says: 45 processes: 1 running, 44 sleeping CPU states: 4.2% user, 0.0% nice, 0.8% system, 1.1% interrupt, 93.9% idle Mem: 21M Active, 5568K Inact, 11M Wired, 6812K Cache, 5589K Buf, 1588K Free Swap: 100M Total, 26M Used, 74M Free, 26% Inuse The reason you can perform so well with so little hardware is because FreeBSD is certainly _not_ a resource hog and does an excellent job managing memory and CPU time. I'm not saying you should go out and find some ancient machine to run your stuff, nor am I saying I wouldn't love to have some heavier servers. :-) But maybe you could put that hefty hardware elsewhere if it really is only going to get a few hits every few minutes. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net /* FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just received said device yesterday; am trying to test it on a "spare" machine here. (That machine had been running -current, but since the target machine is actually running 2.2.6-RELEASE, I put 2.2.6-R on the spare box, and am re-building the kernel now; that takes a while on a 33 MHz 486 with only 8 MB RAM....) Reason I'm asking is that my preliminary testing indicated that chio was able to report status of the changer (though it claimed that everything was in "EXCEPT" status), but it wasn't able to actually move a cartridge from the drive to a slot. The chio program issued an ioctl, but the device apparently doesn't like it. More details should be available by the time this message goes out, but I'm starting to take a look at the code for ch.c so I can better understand what's going on. I haven't (yet) requested the programming information for the changer; I suspect that's likely to be one of my next tasks.

Firt, install Samba (it's in the ports). Then look at the smbclient command (read its man page, if you wish). Specifically, it has a -M flag which can be used to send winpopup messages. -- 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 Aug 11 12:30:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA21516 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 12:30:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from bigguy.benchmarkqa.com ([206.191.255.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA21510 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 12:30:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ddreblow@benchmarkqa.com) Received: from donna.benchmarkqa.com (donna.benchmarkqa.com [206.191.255.137]) by bigguy.benchmarkqa.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id OAA20478 for ; Tue, 11 Aug 1998 14:34:37 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from ddreblow@benchmarkqa.com) Message-ID: <35D09DB0.6568@benchmarkqa.com> Date: Tue, 11 Aug 1998 14:38:24 -0500 From: Donna Dreblow Reply-To: ddreblow@benchmarkqa.com Organization: Benchmarkqa X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04 (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Y2K compliance Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am verifying that the software we use of our computers is Y2K compliant.

I wrote this privately, but seeing how many people believe it's not possible to send from a NT/95 PC to a FreeBSD box, here's the extract from smb.conf(5) : message command This specifies what command to run when the server receives a WinPopup style message. This would normally be a command that would deliver the message somehow. How this is to be done is up to your imagination. What I use is: message command = csh -c 'xedit %s;rm %s' & This delivers the message using xedit, then removes it afterwards. NOTE THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS COM- MAND RETURN IMMEDIATELY. That's why I have the & on the end. If it doesn't return immediately then your PCs may freeze when sending messages (they should recover after 30secs, hopefully). All messages are delivered as the global guest user. The command takes the standard substitutions, although %u won't work (%U may be better in this case). Apart from the standard substitutions, some additional ones apply. In particular: %s = the filename containing the message %t = the destination that the message was sent to (proba- bly the server name) %f = who the message is from You could make this command send mail, or whatever else takes your fancy. Please let me know of any really inter- esting ideas you have. Here's a way of sending the messages as mail to root: message command = /bin/mail -s 'message from %f on %m' root < %s; rm %s If you don't have a message command then the message won't be delivered and Samba will tell the sender there was an error. Unfortunately WfWg totally ignores the error code and carries on regardless, saying that the message was delivered. If you want to silently delete it then try "message com- mand = rm %s". For the really adventurous, try something like this: message command = csh -c 'csh < %s |& /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient \ -M %m; rm %s' & this would execute the command as a script on the server, then give them the result in a WinPopup message.

Although not immediately obvious from a visit to the web site, (the main one being http://www.freebsd.org), the full story of FreeBSD's Y2000 compliance is listed under the Newsflash link (from Feb this year), and under the Documentation link. If you haven't read it (yet) : Short answer - it is Y2K compliant, yes. Long answer - although Y2k compliant, it's untrue to say that FreeBSD is 100% time compliant.

Ah SO! This opens a new line of possibilities! That whole first disk is up for at least temporary use by FREEBSD. If I were more alert I should have spotted this before. Do a fresh install on that wd0... Get it to work. (just do a small installation ... no need for X, kernel sources, blah blah.) Then we will have a MUCH easier time getting at the second disk. It might, after a fresh BSD install on wd0, be perfectly OK.

Just fdisking won't change files. Careful careful. Leave the /second disk/ alone.

I also noticed that the latest greatest version of xmcd (2.3) is also not in packages-2.2.7 either. I know it requires Motif but I thought we built static packages for that. Anyway...., it will compile w/ Lesstif if you want to use the port, but it doesn't enter track titles right for some reason then. Satoshi, any reason there are NO ports of xmcd anywhwere?

I am putting together a new FreeBSD server which requires high disk I/O. I am wondering if anyone knows if the latest stable version of FreeBSD will support the Adaptec SCSI controller 2940U2W. I checked the FAQ's and it only makes mention of compatibility of the 2940U adapter. If there is a possibility of it being recognized, will it offer 80Mbytes per second bus speed as the card is designed for? Or should I just get a regular 2940U if the operating system does not support these speeds. Sincerely, Shaun T.

This may explain some problems I'm having. Accoding the to ipfw man pages, the rule: divert natd ip from any to any via ed0 will divert packets that match this rule to the divert(4) socket bound to port natd. The search then terminates. I don't understand what this means and reading the divert man pages doesn't help me. Perhaps this is best covered by another thread. However, reading the divert man pages I find that "it is normally best to specify your divert rules prior to any others". So I'll take that advice.

I installed freebsd, the kernel and manual, from dos using the .bin files downloaded from the internet. The installation disk was not able to download any packages from the freebsd website even after I connected manually to the net under the "term" mode. After much work, I was able to get ppp to logon to the net. Typing "shell" after the "ppp ON >" prompt, the program shelled back to the "myname>" prompt. Typing "ftp", the program went into the ftp mode. After typing "open ftp.roxen.com" at the "ftp>" prompt, the program returned the error message: ftp: ftp.roxen.com: unknown host. No matter what website was requested, the program returned the same error. Below is a portion of the ppp.conf file: set phone (ISP phone number) set login (login sequence) set timeout 0 set ifaddr (DNS 1) (DNS 2) 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 delete all add 0 0 HISADDR set openmode passive I had to set the openmode to passive, otherwise the program disconnected after 10 seconds. I need to download a browser, xwindows, and other programs, but cannot without ftp. There is no mention of this problem in the handbook, manual, faq's, or newsproups. An alternative would be to download the unix files into a dos directory, and then transfer them. Following the directions in one of the faq's, I typed the following: # cd /dev # ./makedev wd0s2 # mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 / The cursor would then move to the beginning of the next line. If I typed /dos or any directory, instead of /, the program would return error messages. At the next line there was no response to any commands such as cp or dd. Any advice would be appreciated. I want to get rid of msdos and windows. Because unix is new to me, please make your instructions specific. Thanks.

Question: Does FreeBSD support raw disks access? i.e. a read/write to/from disk does NOT access the file cache in memory, but rather 100% of the accesses go-to/come-from disk. If so, how do I create the raw disk partition? Note: I am trying to decide whether to install solarix x86 or FreeBSD on a cluster of PCs to build a parallel database application (parallel multi-dimensional indexing) I know solaris x86 supports this, but have been lead to believe FreeBSD will be faster, easier to install/maintain, and comes loaded with most of the software (gcc/g++/sockets/perl) I need. (please correct me if I am wrong) Further Explanation: (not really relevant, explains why raw disk access desired) Our project has been developed on Sun's running solaris, but due to the cost tradeoff we bought 10 PCs to build a cluster. We do our own buffer pool (memory) caching. When a read/write is exectued I want the data to come/go straight from/to disk, ignoring any file system caching. Bye the way, no, I do not think I can implement a better caching policy. Rather, I need this functionality to enable measurements for the number of disk I/O for various memory sizes. The applications do run faster using a file rather than raw I/O (since you get many buffer hits), but I need the flexibility and predictablility of a raw disk. If you are really curious, check out the methodology section of: "The Effect of Buffering on the Performance of R-Trees" (postscript only) at www.cs.du.edu/users/leut/pubs.html Thanks, ---Scott Professor Scott T.

All I want to do is to run my computer as a workstation, get on the Internet, do some word processing and HTML programming, and some light graphical work. I have a board that has an AMD K5 90Mhz, 32BM RAM, two 504MB Quantum HDDs, and an ATI 264CT video card with 2MB RAM. I don't mind the learning curve, I know I can learn to use this OS. I might even be tempted to learn to program if the right UNIX-like OS came along. I've had a tiny bit of experience with Linux. I had it on my computer for about two weeks. ;-) I want to move away from Windoze 9x to a stable and dependable OS. Would I be better off installing say, Redhat 5.1, or the latest version of FreeBSD? And, what X-Windows GUI should I run on my machine? Damn! there are so many of them!! Thanks. -- G.R.

FreeBSD isn't Linux, so you probably won't get much help here. Have a look at the Linux Documentation Project at: http://sunsite.unc.edu/LDP/ There is a lot of information there about installing Linux systems.

I do an interactive build once in a while, but most of the time I set BATCH (with 1,600+ ports now, that takes a long time already). I haven't gotten around to do an interactive build for a while. IIRC it only asks some questions about the default CDROM drive, if you can make the port do a check for PACKAGE_BUILDING or BATCH and supply a reasonable set of defaults, it will be built automatically.

I'm sure you can get it to work with 2.2.7, but we can't help you until you explain what's going on.

The modem I am using right now is an Aztec SoundIII soundcard/modem, which I know is not the best but I can not afford to purchase another right now. I recompiled the kernel with controller pnp0, which revealed that the card is an AZT3000, I then added that to the sio.c, recompiled and still it will not seem to recognize the modem. I then used pnpinfo to see what it listed, and the modem there was listed as AZT4001, so I added that to sio.c, recompiled and still no luck. Then at the boot prompt I tried pnp 1 0 os irq0 3 drq0 0 port0 0x2f8 An ls then showed me that it had the device listed, but it was not enabled, so I entered pnp 1 0 enable and then let it boot up and still I got no response from the modem at all. Does anyone have any suggestions or should I just forget this part until I get another modem?

THIS pass terminates, but the natd then re-injects the packet into th IP stack after it's been translated, and the whole process starts from scratch (in 2.2.5) or from it's 'save'd position' (in 3.0) in 2.2.5 what it saved was the port that it was diverted to last time so it won't divert there again. Stops loops but it doesn't work for the case where there are 2 diversions.. in 3.0 it saves the rule# that caused the last diversion, and restarts the search after translation at the next rule# after that number. > > However, reading the divert man pages I find that "it is normally best to > specify your divert rules prior to any others".

Of course we'll say FreeBSD! :-) The only experience I have w/ Redhat wasn't a particularly good one, but much of that can be blamed on the sys admin. RH was installed here as a dept server. I believe (and was told by our WinDoZe person) that he did a basic standard install. That standard install had a HUGE number of things running that didn't need to be, ie: innd (a news server - we weren't a news server!) httpd (we had no web pages on this machine!) gopherd (a gopher server - does anyone use gopher anymore?) bootpd (no machines were booting off this machine) Now the sys admin SHOULD have disabled all of these, but didn't. Of course the sys admin also didn't notice a root compromise to the system, through bootpd or innd, I couldn't tell and didn't look that hard. We only knew when we got a bunch of email from disgruntled sys admins at other sites as he attacked them through our server. That machine is now running FreeBSD and the sys admin was fired from this job. > And, what X-Windows GUI should I run on my > machine? Damn! there are so many of them!! This is all personal preference. I recommend going to: http://www.PLiG.org/xwinman/ which has a good overview of most of the various window managers.

My only previous Unix experience is with SVR4 on a Sun Enterprise 3000. I have set up ttyd0 and can log in (terminal emulation). I run slip.login and when I do a netstat my connection shows up as sl0*. I have set the ifconfig in rc.conf but the sl0 doesn't come up. After reading through the online handbook It looks as if I have to run slattach. I ran the following command "slattach -h -c -s 19200 /dev/ttyd0" and get an Ioctl error. I have installed a RS-232 tester and can see data moving when I try to ping from my Win95 PC. This causes a login failure/core dump. I'm throwing up my hands.

Content-Type: text/plain Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 16:05:22 EST Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I have been running 2.2.5R for a about 6 monhts now and I have posted a couple of times complaining about my X session gets killed with unexpected HUP signal etc. I finally resorted to *not* running X about just normal login from the console ttyvX and/or telnet via pty. However, every now and then even when all of those sessions are active, the entire login session and the process will just get killed and I got logged out abruptly and there is just no sigh of what is happening but from vty console, just get the normal login prompt again!! This is happening many many times that I think the system is getting to a unusable state for proper use. I have been a happy FreeBSD and I think I must have been done something wrong ? Does anyone know of init process does send HUP signal under any circumstance or maybe other processes do so ? I can't explain the behaviour I am getting at all and it has caused me quite a fair bit of frustration not knowing where to start debug. If anyone have any idea, please kindly advice me and point me to the right direction as I would like to get this sorted out ASAP. Many thanks in advance.

You take the SparQ dirve, put it back in the box, find the receipt, and take it back to the store and get a SCSI controller and SCSI-connected drive. the SparQs are cheaper quality than the Zip.

I'd suggest creating the new root where you want it then swapping the drives physically. That or symlink off the files on the root partition that are too big.

Can I set the PPP link up as some kind of bridge instead? No, ppp doesn't support bridging. You'll have to work it so both ends get the same IP regardless. Then you can config pppd to give the remote the IP it normally gets when you dial in.

That usually costs them mega-bucks. Well, this is all a centrex ISDN thing, so maybe it is cheaper than with modems. Anyway, I hacked the user-level ppp guy to handle this situation.

Then you can config pppd to give the remote the >IP it normally gets when you dial in. I'm not following you. I'll try and explain better. Normally my network is 10.0.0.0/29. I configure my router to have the IP 10.0.0.1. I gave the other machine on the network 10.0.0.2. Both of them have netmasks of 255.255.255.248. At this point I can ping everyone and everyone is happy. Now I dial into my ISP. I tell my ISP that I want to use 10.0.0.1 as my IP. It says OK and that the gateway is 10.0.2.21. Now ppp does the following: It creates the tun0 device with IP 10.0.0.1. It then makes 10.0.2.21 the default route. Now when I try to ping 10.0.0.2 it doesn't work. The reason (I think) is that the routing table says to route anything in the 10.0.0.0/29 subnet through 10.0.0.1. At this point both ed0 and tun0 have 10.0.0.1 as their inet address. I'm not exactly sure what FreeBSD decides to do in this situation, but it doesn't work. I can ping any host out on the Internet at this point, though. I thought I could fix this by adding ADD 0 0 INTERFACE to the ppp.linkup file, but whenever I try to send a packet to the Internet in this mode, I get an error like "Address family not supported". If I look at the routing table, the default route is to tun0 and there is no IP address specified. Do I just need to use two IP addresses for the router or is there something I'm missing?

I've got a new Aladdin V based board. It has onboard PCI IDE supporting PIO modes up to mode 5, Ultra DMA/33 and 100 MHz CPU bus frequency (you may find a complete description at http://www.ali.com.tw/av.htm). I built a kernel supporting multi sector and 32 bit transfers including LBA support. This one works, but not fine. It freezes my box on heavy disk usage very often. I switched on some kernel options for debug messages and getting this on failure: interrupt timeout: status 50 error 1 wdtimeout() DMA status 4. I find this message while booting: "ide_pci: generic_dma_init 01f0:1: warning, IDE controller timing not set" and traced it down to ide_pci.c. There I found, that my board isnt explicitly supported, just some intel based ones. And the generic DMA routines used by the kernel seem to have problems... So, my question is, is there is a patch or work in progress to support this board? Or is it possible to disable DMA easily as long as there is no special driver for it? Maybe this should be a kernel option? (And no, I wont disable these features in BIOS, as there is another OS an my disk that I need and which supports it ;-> ) -- Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 12 01:35:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA20187 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 01:35:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from shell.monmouth.com (shell.monmouth.com [205.231.236.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA20182 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 01:35:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gdurka@mail.monmouth.com) Received: from lizard (rb-max-ppp19.monmouth.com [209.191.8.154]) by shell.monmouth.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id EAA12160 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 04:34:30 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <3.0.5.16.19980812033411.250fa9f4@mail.monmouth.com> X-Sender: gdurka@mail.monmouth.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (16) Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 03:34:11 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Greg Durka Subject: no ftp Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My system is a 486dx IBM clone desktop.

Since 2.x doesn't support UDMA, this must be -CURRENT, in which case you probably shouldn't be asking here. Since this is a question that will be asked more often, though, I'm not following up to -current. > I switched on some kernel options for debug messages and > getting this on failure: interrupt timeout: > status 50 error 1 wdtimeout() > DMA status 4. > > I find this message while booting: "ide_pci: generic_dma_init > 01f0:1: warning, IDE controller timing not set" and traced > it down to ide_pci.c.

I've checked this message, and it seems to me that it's telling me that your primary slave has not been set to run DMA. I get it on my machine too, for both slave drives: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff on isa ide_pci: generic_dmainit 01f0:1: warning, IDE controller timing not set wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): , DMA, 32-bit, multi-block-32 wd0: 1223MB (2504880 sectors), 2485 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 flags 0xa0ffa0ff on isa ide_pci: generic_dmainit 0170:1: warning, IDE controller timing not set wdc1: unit 0 (wd2): , DMA, 32-bit, multi-block-16 wd2: 6197MB (12692736 sectors), 12592 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S It doesn't worry me overly, because these drives don't exist. Does your primary slave exist? It doesn't seem to be worried about the primary master. I don't think the fact that your chip isn't mentioned specifically means anything at all. I'm running an SiS chipset, and it's not mentioned either. > So, my question is, is there is a patch or work in progress > to support this board?

Boot with the -c option and select the visual configuration editor. The flags are described in wd(4). Here's a description extracted from "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm). A number of flags and options apply to wdc0: o The flags fields are used to enable the multi-sector I/O and the 32 bit I/O modes. You can use them either in the controller definition or in the individual disk definitions. If you want to use them during boot configuration, specify them in the controller definition. 16 flag bits are provided for each drive. The first 16 flag bits refer to drive 1, and the second 16 bits refer to drive 0. In each set of flags, o Bit 15 (0x8000) specifies to probe for 32 bit transfers. o Bit 14 (0x4000) enables waking powered-down laptop drives. o Bit 13 (0x2000) allows probing for PCI IDE DMA controllers, such as Intel's PIIX south bridges. o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. o The low 8 bits specify the maximum number of sectors per transfer. The special case 0xff represents the maximum transfer size which the drive can handle. See the man page for wd(4) (on your system, but not in this book) for more details. Thus, we can break down the example value 0xff8004 (the full 32 bits are 0x00ff8004) into 0x00ff for drive 1 (use the maximum transfer size) and 0x8004 for drive 0 (allow probing for 32 bit support, and use a transfer size of 4 sectors). We use CHS addressing for this drive. Be warned: I've seen a 500% increase in CPU usage and a corresponding 80% decrease in throughput after disabling UDMA. > (And no, I wont disable these features in BIOS, as there is another > OS an my disk that I need and which supports it ;-> ) I don't think disabling them in the BIOS would make any difference. Having said all that, though, I think you're probably barking up the wrong tree. I'm guessing that, as in my case, the warning refers to a non-existent disk, and that your real problem lies elsewhere. I'd suspect the bus frequency. Have you tried turning your bus back down to 66 MHz? I'd guess that you're running into a sporadic hardware problem which is hitting you harder than your other operating system. The fact that the chipset isn't listed as being supported is probably not that significant.

I notice you take a lot of time to be very helpful answering all manner of questions on the FreeBSD lists. I appreciate it, and I'm sure others do as well. The world needs more helpful folks like you! I must respectfully disagree, however. The netmask I used above, 255.255.255.255 is perfectly valid in my situation, since my computer is at the end of a PPP connection and does not have a directly connected network of its own to talk to except through the PPP connection. All traffic, even that to other addresses on the same class C still has to be routed via the default route to my ISP. As for the problem I described in my previous message, I managed to solve it shortly after posting. Doesn't it always seem to happen that way? *grin* I feel somewhat foolish. It was a simple routing table problem. An old routing table entry existed from a previous PPP connection that I'd killed and so it never got a chance to clean up the routes when it terminated. Once I got rid of the old entry, my ipfw weirdness went away. Again, thanks for the reply. Sincerely.

Took a lot of preparation, but when it came time to do it, the install went flawlessly. It seems like a great system, I haven't seen UNIX for several years. (Since my days at CMU) Anyway, since I now have 3 OS's on my computer, I thought, "What the heck, I'll see what linux is all about!" and decided to install it. I downloaded Redhat 5.1 and installed it. Unfortunately, boot easy won't "see" my linux partition on my hard drive (only one). So I have yet to boot linux. (I installed LILO on the boot sector, not in MBR, because I thought boot easy would be a better boot manager:) I know it should see all my partitions, because it even saw my NTFS partition, which had nothing on it, before I deleted it to make room for linux. Anyone have any experience with this? I have 4 partitions, FAT16 (with both NT and 95), BSD, linux, and linux Swap. I have to say, the FreeBSD installer was just as nice as Redhat's, plus it found my ethernet card. (linux didn't find it, grrr..) I thought Redhat's installer was a bit more "user-friendly", though. The descriptions of the packages were a nice touch. Not being to network sort of defeats the whole purpose though. Or boot it, for that matter. Sigh. Thanks so much, and thanks to the FreeBSD team for a great system. I'm having a lot of fun exploring BSD style UNIX! I'm writing this in Netscape 4, it's wicked cool.

If not, have you cleaned the head? In my experiences that probably points to a dirty tape drive head. I run a lot of different tape drives on my old junque, all ancient things, and there are two problems that seem to surface that folks might pay attention to. (speaking about older DC600, DC5160 type cartridge drives). 1. Clean the tape heads with a q-tip and some isopropyl alcohol, about every 10 tape runs on tapes that are used. I find that errors start to magically appear about that time, with regularity. 2. On unknown tapes, that are reused (yeah, I know I am the tightwad), retension 3 times, then erase 3 times before use. Clean the head with a dry q-tip to knock any ferric dust accumulation off the surface. Then use the tape. 3. If errors occur randomly and you have cleaned the heads, reboot the machine (shutdown -r). For some unknown reason, that seems to clear some errors on the drives. 4. Check the tape motor drive wheel rubber surface. I find on a lot of my older drives that the rubber drive wheels begin to deteriorate with time (bad rubber chemistry). If that happens it is best to replace the drive, although I have been known to cut some small pieces of rubber hose and resurface a drive wheel. It sort of works if you are careful. Good Luck,and keep the tapes whirring.....

Assuming that the BSD box can read the tape... you might try using cpio to write the tape -- make sure you use the ascii format (cpio -oc). If that still doesn't work, use something like GNU shar and just use dd to copy the result to the tape (you might have to pad the shar file with zeros or something to make sure dd copies the entire file to the tape if you get into blocksize problems with the tape.) > Are there any Fortran 77 compilers around that will run on BSD? f77 (which uses f2c) comes with FreeBSD.

I have the same symptoms and i am unable to find the source of them. It happens in the following situations: - X is running - some kind of heavy-graphics-resource-consumption is happening, like: twm is configured to opaque-move AND i am dragging the netscape-window AND some other action takes place so that the graphical refresh is delayed. then my X-session gets kicked completly. This is the best i was able to get to. When this drama first started, not only my whole X-session got kicked, but the machine immediately rebooted on this (no panic-message, no nothing). What i did to make the symptoms less catastrophic: - probably change the slot-order of some PCI-cards (i had to) - set the PCI-interrupt of the graphics-board to "N/A" (if it is a PCI-card) - check the termination of your SCSI-bus. Check for TERM-POWER suppliers on your SCSI-bus and switch them off. The only device that should need to supply term-power to the SCSI-bus is the SCSI-controller. - turn off any graphics-resources-intesive features in your window-manager (opaque-move, ...) - i've found interrupts to cause the worst cases in this drama: while my ISDN-card is actively transferring packets and therefor issuing many interrupts and i opaque-move the netscape-window, in most cases this causes a crash. It must be said here, that my ISDN-card (AVM-Fritz!-ISA) generates about 200 interrupts/s when there is no activity on the ISDN-bus. If there is activity, this number gets much higher. So the source of all that evil is probably a combination of the following: - bad graphics-card - power-problem on the SCSI-bus - bad interrupt-controller - bad ISDN-card (generating >= 200 interrupts/s) - bad RAM The min. number of interrupts i get on my system when just running X without doing anything (not even moving the mouse) is 270 (while watching xpermon++). What is your's ?

Name is Juan Vazquez. At this time i'm running FreeBSD2.2.6 and have a small network setup around it. The BSD Box is my gateway to the internet. I also box running Linux Red Hat 5.1. On this box i run a program name Tnos version 2.30. Tnos uses ip encap and i'm having some problems tring to pass this through the bsd box. If i use the Linux box as my connection to the internet everything works fine. But i don't want to use the Linux box as my gateway to the internet. I prefer to use the BSD box as my gateway. The question is how can i get the BSD box to pass the encap traffic to the Linux box, when Tnos connect to other sites running Tnos and ussing the 44.x.x.x ip segment. That has been assign to us for use with Amateur Radio Gateways. Is their someone running Tnos under BSD? I've tryi to get Tnos to compile under BSD and found some problems and quit. Your help will be must apreciated. Tnx.

"kmem_map too small" panic is not an indication of running out of mbuf clusters. It's an indication of running out of malloc space. You need to increase VM_KMEM_SIZE to something larger than the default of 32MB. I'd try doubling it. As to other things you've said above: An in-use percent of 99% does not indicate that you are out of buffers. It's a mostly bogus number that tells you how much is in-use of the peak since the system was started. The peak is the second number in the line above that. In your netstat output above, your system has peaked usage of 3640 mbuf clusters. If this doesn't increase significantly over time, then you will only need to configure perhaps 5000- 6000 mbuf clusters to keep your system happy (always plan for at least 1.5-2*peak). -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 Wed Aug 12 09:17:56 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA20108 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:17:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pau-amma.whistle.com (s205m64.whistle.com [207.76.205.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA20098 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:17:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw@whistle.com) Received: (from dhw@localhost) by pau-amma.whistle.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id JAA20878; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:15:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dhw) Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:15:43 -0700 (PDT) From: David Wolfskill Message-Id: <199808121615.JAA20878@pau-amma.whistle.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, romank@graphnet.com Subject: Re: removing files In-Reply-To: <35D195D9.CD9E1460@graphnet.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:17:13 -0400 >From: Roman Katsnelson >Let's say I have a directory with la.txt and foo.sh and 6 million other >files. >Can I issue a command that says: delete everything BUT la.txt and foo.sh >According to man rm there's no way to do it with that one.

Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 11:22:41 -0500 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 OK, thought the final resolution would be of interest to everyone here, so... (1) The terminator on the "monitor" side of the coax was bad. (2) One of the boxes on the hub *did* have tcp extensions enabled, although this did not seem to affect anything. (3) Having replaced the terminator, the problem did *not* resolve, it merely got "better". I was finally able to experience the phenomenon myself, and track it down to the de0 driver ("server" is de0 based, all the rest are NE2000's). When the de0 driver gets a lot of crc/framing errors, it "gets lost", literally. In order to recover it, you have to (a) wait for it, which could take from 2 seconds to 2 hours, or, (b) reset it by bringing it down/up with ifconfig. I replaced the card with other known good cards, and the problem did not change. The problem with de0 is specific to this subnet however, so I did a little sniffing and research overnight to verify the actual cause/effects here. This error will only occur when the de0 is operating in an environment with a lot of *slow* cards using even slower cpus. When the "bad" de0 card is put in a fairly up-to-date environment (being 486/100 and higher on the same subnet) it performs fine (except for the normally complained about recieve error messages you see on -questions so often). I believe that the de0 driver needs serious looking at (and I am *not* qualified to do it, or I would volunteer). I have only managed to resolve this by scheduling a cron to check connectivity every minute, and do ifconfig down/up if it is found to be wanting: not a really good solution.

A couple of things to try: 1) Make sure that server's ethernet is set to the proper duplex. 2) Check netstat -s on server and look at TCP checksum and other errors. Do the same on a client machine. Also look at retransmits on both sides; you should be able to tell in which direction the problem is occuring by doing this. 3) I didn't see a mention of the type of NIC you were using; whatever that is, you might try something entirely different in the server and a client machine to see if that affects the problem. 4) Move server to a different hub port. -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 Wed Aug 12 09:40:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA22844 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:40:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from greeves.mfn.org (greeves.mfn.org [204.238.179.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA22837 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 09:40:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sysadmin@mfn.org) Received: from noc.mfn.org (noc.mfn.org [204.238.179.35]) by greeves.mfn.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id LAA02597 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 11:40:22 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from sysadmin@mfn.org) Received: by noc.mfn.org with Microsoft Mail id <01BDC5E5.41AA3BA0@noc.mfn.org>; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 11:35:07 -0500 Message-ID: <01BDC5E5.41AA3BA0@noc.mfn.org> From: "sysadmin@mfn.org" To: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: FW: "Intruder Alert"???

The machine is doing a DNS lookup, which ahs to go off-site to resolve, thus the dialout.

Even for a small user base, it is quite a nice solution. The biggest factor in choosing between Cyrus and IMAP-uw is probably the relative importance of retaining classical unix inboxes in /var/mail -vs- improved system security. (IMAP-uw retains the classical mailboxes, but must run as root or have -all- mailboxes readable by -anyone-. Cyrus runs as a non-priveleged user [nominally 'cyrus'], but forces all mailbox access to be through IMAP or POP.) I chose Cyrus a couple of years ago for the security. Since then there have been a few root-compromise security alerts against IMAP-uw; but no alerts at all against Cyrus. (And Cyrus was not fazed by the username/password overrun attack - it just rejects it.) -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 12 10:17:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA29431 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 10:17:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA29403 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 10:16:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA19993; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 10:16:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 10:16:11 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Agus Soejanto cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: 3Com FDDILink PCI NIC 3c795 In-Reply-To: <35D0E63A.48D4@bdg.centrin.net.id> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 11 Aug 1998, Agus Soejanto wrote: > Hi all, > > Is 3Com FDDILink PCI NIC 3C795 fully supported by FreeBsd ?

Can anyone point me in the right direction. First of all, don't use slip, it's ancient. Use ppp instead. Secondly, read up on pppd and how to set up the options file for dialin access.

For example, I > noticed during the install of 2.2.7 that tcsh is no longer installable > from sysinstall's "Packages" option, you must install it using make in > the ports tree. What? I just installed 2.2.7 when it came out and I installed tcsh FROM the packages. Getting on that machine and running /stand/sysinstall and doing a post-configure, add packages, I find tcsh sitting right there in shells right where it's supposed to be. In any case, some things cannot be made into packages for various reasons - they could be limited to non-commercial use (eg asWedit) or interactive or any of a number of other reasons. You can read through bsd.port.mk and the porting section of the handbook to get more of an idea on when things cannot be packages.

Use a mail program to get mail and not a web browser? :-) Seriously, I haven't tried 4.5 (since it only is out as communicator to the best of my knowledge and I don't want all the cruft) but I've heard lots of bug reports. Lately my 4.05 Navigator has been crashing more frequently, but I can't point my finger at any particular cause yet. If 4.5 is too buggy, drop back to 4.05. Isn't 4.5 a beta release yet?

This can be useful but doesn't sound like what you are after. If it's after the divert it should be blocking 1918 addresses coming in from the Internet (where they shouldn't be roaming around anyway). > > > add pass tcp from any to any setup > > > > Allows TCP connections to start but probably blocks the rest because of > > the above rule. > > Yeah. Strange. These are the default rules within rc.firewall. There should be an earlier rule that passes established connections. And there should be a $fwcmd add deny log tcp from any to any in via ${oif} setup before the add pass tcp from any to any setup.

Yes, I'm a newbie trying to rebuild my kernel. The command sequence I used, as recommended by the FreeBSD online handbook, was : # /usr/sbin/config BJKERNEL # cd ../../compile/BJKERNEL # make depend # make # make install The stop code occurs during the 'make' command. It happened twice, and judging by the output I received (no, my memory isn't near good enough to remember) each time, I commented out certain device lines in the config file. The result was that the next time I did the compile procedure above, the stop code merely reported _different_ errors. The problem, as reported in a compile effort on the file attached to this message, occurs after the line 'loading kernel.' the following lines follow: tek390.o: Undefined symbol '_scsi_done' referenced from text segment tek390.o: Undefined symbol '_scsi_done' referenced from text segment tek390.o: Undefined symbol '_scsi_alloc_bus' referenced from text segment tek390.o: Undefined symbol '_scsi_attachdevs' referenced from text segment *** Error code 1 Thanks for any help. -- Brian J Cohen P.S.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear Questions@FreeBSD.org For my work I have to implement a protocol gateway that will gate the way between TCP/IP and MASC. Since I have no experience building gateways I was wondering if anyone does have experience with this kind of work, or if anyone would care to answer a few questions for me. For portability, I would like to write a userland daemon that will do the work. My initial doodles are small daemons that listen to predefined ports on Localhost, so that certain applications can use those ports to talk TCP/IP over my gateway application. Thus: : Client PC : Host PC : Client App : Host App | : | --+------+-- (TCP/IP lo0) : --+------+-- (TCP/IP) | : | Client Gateway App : Central Gateway App | : | +----<> MASC over radio modem <>----+ : This approach works fine for my application. The client PC will always use a single client application, and that application always connects to the same host and port. A major drawback of this approach is that ping does not work, and that a traceroute from the host only shows the path to the central gateway application. Making a connection back to the client PC is virtually impossible to implement cleanly. I'm sure there are other drawback I haven't bashed my head into. So, now I want to be able to offer end-to-end TCP/IP over MASC, but I do not want to write my own kernel device driver. I figure that applications like ppp, and ipfw must have a way of getting the raw IP packets from the kernel, so I can do that too. Now, the sources of ppp are just over 600kb. I don't know about you, but I'd rather avoid reading 600kb of C source, however well-written. Could someone please help me by telling me how ppp gets the IP packets from the system? Is there any documentation about this subject? Just as I'm sitting here a thought hit me. We are using Ericsson Mobidem radio modems. Could I talk ppp or slip over such a modem? I don't think they are HAYES compatible. I'd have to look up if there is documentation about that, though.

I tried it, but it didn't work. To answer your question, no I'm not connected to an Annex box. I'm connected to a Sun (Ultra I believe) running MorningStar PPP, via a 28.8kbps modem connection.

Performance is as good (or better) in most areas, but this is hardware dependent, and I am sure that people can provide software/hardware combinations that prove that either OS is superior.

22:12:54 -0400 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Mike Tancsa Subject: performance of a FreeBSD box: Can it keep up ? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have been using a FreeBSD box as our internal router for the past while and was just wondering how best to measure its capacity in that role. Right now its a Pentium 200 with 64M of RAM with 3 intel fxp cards in it: one via 100Mb cross over cable to a Cisco 4700 feeding us at 5Mb, the other 2 for 2 different segments. Its managing everything via static routes right now and I have a separate box runing gated to do OSPF internally for my dynamic routing. My questions are as follows based on the netstat -s output below of the router which has been up 111days and sees a fairly constant average of 1Mb out and bursting to about 3.5Mb in. a) Because in 111 days there have been only 9 source quenches does this mean the box is keeping up ? b) My only emperical tests that I have done are to do several big ftp transfers from machines behind the box artificially pushing up the utilzation to 4.6Mb for a good 5min period so MRTG can register it.

(in response to whomever I'm misquoted as above) Oh I agree, the sys admin SHOULD be able to remove the silly default installed stuff from rc.d tree, but he hadn't. Of course he also allowed a root compromise for a month so clearly he wasn't a great sys admin. The ports system in FreeBSD does the same thing - if you install ssh you'll be running sshd. I was under the impression though that the "I've never ever run Linux" install choice for RH pretty much installed everything (I could certainly be wrong.) In any case, FBSD does NOT during the initial installation install and automatically startup things like gopherd, innd, bootpd (all which were on the RH machine, from the initial install, before I converted it to FBSD). If you want, for instance, gopherd running you must go install the port and add it rc.local. Basically, in FreeBSD, if you want it YOU need to turn it on in FBSD. It appears in my incredibly limited experience w/RH Linux (and the comments from our WinDoZe sys admin who worked w/ the Linux sys admin) that if you don't want it YOU need to turn it off as it's probably on by default if you made a "bad" choice during the initial installation. -shrug- All of this is moot really because the sys admin SHOULD know what's running on startup and deal with it whether it was initially installed or he did it later. :-) Brett ****************************************************************** Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ "There is something uncanny in the noiseless rush of the cyclist, as he comes into view, passes by, and disappears." - Popular Science, 1891 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 12 19:58:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA26539 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 19:58:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from drmemory.fnal.gov (drmemory.fnal.gov [131.225.105.170]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA26533 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 19:58:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rneswold@drmemory.fnal.gov) Received: (from rneswold@localhost) by drmemory.fnal.gov (8.8.8/8.8.6) id VAA00375; Wed, 12 Aug 1998 21:57:45 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <19980812215745.A301@drmemory.fnal.gov> Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 21:57:45 -0500 From: "Richard M.

Both are running 2.2.6. The machine at work is connected via ethernet. The home machine is using 'ppp' over a modem. At home, I cannot connect to http://slashdot.org. At work, I have no problems. > > Try setting `tcp_extensions="NO"' in /etc/rc.conf and rebooting, then > > trying ppp. I've tried setting tcp_extensions to YES and NO. I also tried the other combinations by playing with net.inet.tcp.rfc1323 and net.inet.tcp.rfc1644. No combination worked. By the way, my machine at work has tcp_extensions set to YES and that machine can connect. It really seems to be related to 'ppp'. > Any other ideas, or any other information I can provide that may help? Some more info from my machine: using 'netstat', I find that the socket state is in FIN_WAIT_2. It stays this way until it times out.

This sounds funny. You shouldn't "add entries" for remote systems, you get that via the root name servers. Quite possibly that's what named is trying to do in that time.

Besides, that is legacy hardware and MCA is > dead. MCA is hardly dead. Unless I'm mistaken, there are still current RS/6000 MCA boards--graphics, net, scsi, etc... Anyway, the best source I can point anyone to about MCA linux is: http://www.net/~calemon/linux.html Which has several links to other pages. I've never tried to run it, though I've always wanted to get a souped-up PS/2 55sx or something and try it. As I understand it, a lot of MCA cards look the same to the system as certain ISA cards--that is, there is an MCA version of the WD8013 ethernet card, and it's software-compatible, lives in the same memory addresses, etc. There's an MCA version of the 1542 SCSI card, the sound blaster, and a number of other common cards. These are supported more or less natively. There are small hacks to the kernel that were done to make MCA card initialization/but arbitration work right or something. Seems like hacking this into freebsd wouldn't be a big deal. No, I'm not going to try it. :) Sorry this was sorta off-topic, but I found it interesting.

Odd.  What brand/model of video card do you have?

It's a generic S3 Virge DX, 4 Mb card. SuperGraphics? Not sure.Do I need to provide more info, or will this do?
As a stopgap you can use the text mode xf86config utility.  Just follow
the prompts and you should be ok.
OK. I went ahead and tried it--although I was hoping to get my hand held.
I went through it step by step. At the end, I copied the XF86Config file
to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 and ran "startx."(What it says to do in xfree86.org's
"Quick-Start Guide to XFree86 Setup")
I got this output:
 

_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61

_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61

Possible culprit:

After I told the config utility which video card I have, it said "Do NOT probe clocks or
use any clocks line." Later, when prompted for RAMDAC and clockchip and running
"X -probeonly," I skipped through selecting none. Now what?

If FreeBSD commited the same "sin", its easiest install option would simply have installed each and every package for you, without asking. That's more or less what RH does. Whenever I do a quick-and-dirty RH install (not in a while, thank god), I have to spend a few minutes afterwards pruning the SysV-like startup. > All of this is moot really because the sys admin SHOULD know what's > running on startup and deal with it whether it was initially installed or > he did it later.

Currently we print to it from our SGI's and it wotks fine. its ip is 192.9.200.237 and is known as Server. I looked into my printer settings on my sgi and it told me it was set up as Printer name - Canon and hostname - Server. so I set up my /etc/printcap on my FreeBSD as follows:- canon|lp|fiery|canon Fiery 700:\ :lp=:rm=Server:rp=Canon:sd=/var/spool/lpd/canon: this gave me the following error: lpr: connect: No such file or directory jobs queued, but cannot start daemon. After I got this error I checked the spool directory and the files where present, so the spool seems ok. I then queried the printer from my SGI and noticed the following: the SGI queue manager says "Connected to "print_700-800" on host "Server" so I changed my /etc/printcap to the following : canon|lp|fiery|canon Fiery 700:\ :lp=:rm=Server:rp=print_700-800:sd=/var/spool/lpd/canon: unfortunately i got the same error again.

Firstly we have a client who wants me to set up their system to bcc a copy of all outgoing eMail to another account (maybe a text file). Sendmail already logs the address and sender into a log file but he wants a copy of the body. Now searching through dejanews uncovered a number of people who claim that it can be done but are not saying because this is ethically unpalatable to them. The fact is my client wants this so I need to figure it out. The solutions I did find were to install procmail. But I found the FAQ mention something about bad memory issues, so my questions finally can Sendmail log the body of outgoing messages or does anyone have any experience using procmail on FreeBSD 2.2.2 Finally is there someone in Australia who can provide a copy for sale of the 2.2.6 CD or do we have to order from Walnut Creek.

I am having trouble when trying to install 2.2.6 over a network. I am running WarFTP in Win95 on one machine to provide access to the installation files, but when I try and install via ftp I can see that FreeBSD is logging in and then logging out immediately. I have tested that WarFTP is set up ok, and have tried every combination of settings for my network card on the installation machine I can think of. I have the workgroup name, computer name, ip address for the install machine, and subnet mask. There is a direct connection between the machines so a firewall setting shouldn't be necessary (although it can be set up on another machine if you think it would help). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Make sure you are a member of group 'wheel', connect as yourself, then su to root. Allowing root to connect directly from outside is often considered to be a security risk. Alternatively, install ssh (from the ports collection), and you will get yourself a nice secure encrypted connection that you can do whatever you like with.

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 had a strange problem today that I can only assume is a bug in the way BPF taps off packets in the ethernet interfaces. I saw the following: A stock FreeBSD-2.2.6 machine was connected to a BAY stackable 100M Ethernet switch via a SMC9432 NIC, using the tx driver. At bootup, the kernel probe messages showed that the interface was auto configured to 100M Full Duplex. The machine was running our Statscout network monitoring software connected to BAY Networks internal network. I was running tcpdump to check some things and everything looked good. A little while later, the BAY switch was replaced with a 10M ethernet hub because the switch was needed elsewhere. The tx0 interface automatically changed to 10M half duplex. The box was not rebooted at this stage. Everything continued on with no problems until I ran tcpdump and my statistical lan analyser which also uses the BPF device. Interestingly, each packet that was transmitted by the FreeBSD box was displayed twice by tcpdump. ie. ping someplace echo request echo request echo reply My statistical lan analyser also double counted the packets transmitted from the machine. A seperate LAN analyser connected to the same hub showed that the FreeBSD machine really only sent one 'echo request' and not two. I have looked through the if_tx.c source but cannot find why this would happen. I also looked though other if_xx.c code and have a thought that the same problem may exist for other interfaces. Has anyone seen this before ? thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Koch Director, Support and Development Email: pak@mns.com.au Micro Network Services Pty Ltd Web: http://www.mns.com.au Level 6, 360 Queen St, Phone: +61 7 32294750 Brisbane, Queensland, 4000 Fax: +61 7 32294506 Australia ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 06:31:10 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA28310 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 06:31:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netra.graphnet.com (netra.graphnet.com [192.206.112.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA28304 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 06:31:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from romank@graphnet.com) Received: from graphnet.com (roman.graphnet.com [192.206.112.93]) by netra.graphnet.com (8.8.8/8.8.6) with ESMTP id JAA23124; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 09:27:39 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <35D2EB9B.2ED7460F@graphnet.com> Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 09:35:23 -0400 From: Roman Katsnelson Organization: Graphnet, Inc X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (WinNT; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Ervins Tumulkans CC: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: root References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ervins Tumulkans wrote: > > Please help me: how can i make remote connection to freebsd as root?

Good Luck! Below is my general reply to this question and it is based upon my experience and upon the replies of others to the same question. -------- I was told that Adaptec supports FreeBSD. This would make Adaptec the only commerical vendor that directly supports ATM cards on FreeBSD. I was surprised that anyone commerically supported ATM cards for FreeBSD. see: http://www.adaptec.com/products/solutions/atmfamily.html -------- the other ATM code on FreeBSD is more experimental in quality. there are a couple stacks and a few different adapters that are supported by those stack. -------- Advanced Networking Group at Network Computing Services, Inc, (formerly the Minnesota Supercomputer Center, Inc.), has a stack called the Host ATM Research Platform (HARP). HARP uses UNI 3.0 signalling, but recently they said their new release will support UNI 3.1 signalling. HARP implements IETF Classical IP over ATM network protocol. for details see: http://www.msci.magic.net/harp/harp2.html HARP supports the following ATM cards: FORE Systems, Inc. SBA-200 and SBA-200E ATM SBus Adapters FORE Systems, Inc. PCA-200E ATM PCI Adapters Efficient Networks, Inc. ENI-155p ATM PCI Adapters (I wrote a ATM driver based on the IDT 77201 SAR that also uses the HARP code. the Forerunner LE cards use the campatible IDT 77211 SAR) there was talk about including HARP into FreeBSD-current. -------- The Applied Research Lab (ARL) of Washington University has a stack that supports Adaptec 590x, and Efficient Networks (Midway) NICs. I know this supports only PVC, but I do not know the protocols or signalling that it supports. The only information I have on the package is the package address: ftp://dworkin.wustl.edu/dist/bsd/bsdatm1.4.tar.gz this package is part of FreeBSD-current. -------- I was told that there is a freely available UNI 3.1 stack available from: http://www.begemot.org/cgi-bin/begemot/product.cgi?freeuni >From reading the documents, it compiles on FreeBSD, but there is no adapter support. --mark.

Related question: What would be the most elegant way for one FreeBSD box (running upsd) to signal another that it should shut down? Oh sure, I can also think of a number of solutions, but I'm still looking for one that's reasonably foolproof/secure, and that doesn't *feel* like a hack.

Some of the stuff you said is like, waaaayyy over my head, so I better get going on learning about all this UNIX stuff. The learning curve is way steep, but I think it's worth it... not to mention that I kinda like the challenge. I do believe I'm going to drop RH 5.1 Linux and install FreeBSD. I really hate to disappoint ol' Linus, but a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do. ;o) Thanks again you guys, I really appreciate this, and I know where to go if I have more questions... speaking of which: what do you mean by "ports"? The only ports I know are the serial and printer ports in the back of my box. I'd really like to learn to do this right. Cao. -- G.R.

Install was perfect, and it's working great. But we noticed something odd. When we do a traceroute from any FreeBSD machine (2.1.0-R, 2.2.1-R, 2.2.6-R) directly to the Cisco, the second of the three packets is *always* dropped (With no exceptions.) Traces carried *past* the Cisco are fine however. Traces run from other OS's are fine, it's just a FreeBSD/Cisco thing. Another ISP I'm friendly with also sees the exact same thing with their FreeBSD/Cisco(s) combo. (Theirs is a Cisco 450.) To carry it further, the source and destination networks don't seem to matter. Traces from our FBSD boxen to their Cisco(s) *also* show the same thing, as do traces from their FBSD boxen to our Cisco. Even if there is no solution, we're very eager to find an answer.

Is this better? It appears to be a C++ program and its benefit is to keep the prompt length limited to a reasonable size. Some programs, e.g. ncftp, provide a similar interface by replacing the missing path components with ellipses. If there is no requirement for prompt length truncation, the following statement in the users ~/.bash_profile (initial login) and ~/.bashrc (sub shells) should work fine. PS1='\w\$ ' If multiple hosts are involved try PS1='\h:\w\$ ' which sets the prompt to ``hostname:path$ '' -- Regards, Norman C.

"port" is something akin to a source level RedHat .rpm, only it doesn't have the source code -- only instructions about how to get it. (Machine readable instructions, of course.) It also has patches, a Makefile, and stuff like that. There's an intro to them on the website with a link title something like "Ports -- a swell way to install optional software". A package is like a binary .rpm. A "port" can make a package, and/or install the software directly.

You can also do % cvs log ld.1 for example. You can use 'cvs diff' to see the differences between different versions; % cvs diff -r 1.12.2.3 -r 1.12.2.4 ld.1 would show you exactly what changes were made. If you don't have the full CVS repository, you can use the CVS web interface at .

The ``ports'' are a collection of programs that have been ported to FreeBSD. The last time I looked there were 1,637 programs in the collection. Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html IMHO, you have made a wise decision. ;-) -- Regards, Norman C. Rice, Jr. > > -- > G.R.

On amanda230 all that is required is the .rhosts. On 240p1 (and depending on the build options) the .amandahosts file is consulted instead. I used the stock port for amanda24, and it apparently compiles with the options to IGNORE .rhosts, and only uses .amandahosts. I was re-reading the man page on amanda and noticed the second part of the phrase I missed before - ".... allow access from the tape server host as this user via .rhosts or .amandahosts" and then the part I just noticed "depending on how the Amanda software was built". Adding my backup host AND userid to .amandahosts fixed the problem. Thanks so much for everyone who offered suggestions!

Putting harddrives, or for that matter, ANY computer equipment into sleep mode is a bad idea. First, in the case of harddrives most the wear and tear is during the spin up process, if you go into sleep mode three or four times a day, thats three or four times more wear and tear, therefore decreasing the life of your hard drive. Second, many pieces of hardware do not come back from sleep mode very well, especially under Windows systems, but FreeBSD is prone to it to as it's a hardware problem. Imagine your computer not completly coming backup, and you have to turn it off then back on, and taking the chance of losing something. Third, sleep mode was meant to be a power saving mode. What the manufactures fail to point out to you that a modern PC based computer uses so little electricity that it's not even fuuny. Sleep mode saves almost nothing, except on Laptops where you're running off of a battery. If you're concerned about power usage, turn off a 60 watt light bulb, turn your freezer and fridge down, and only turn the TV on for a couple of hours a day, any one of those will save more power then 'sleep mode.'

After printing, the file is no longer needed, and for this reason we want the file to get automatically removed after printing. 1. We do a "lpr -r -Pprinter filename" ==> The file is removed after printing 2. We do a "lpr -s -r -Pprinter filename" ==> The symlink is removed after printing, the file remains While doing 1. the file has to be copied which might be unacceptable if it is very large. By using 2. we avoid the copying but the file remains and has to be removed manually. Would it make sense to invent a new option for lpr which allows symlinking AND removal of the symlink together with the input file?

Now, I know the files in there aren't necessary to run X, as I'm doing it now, but as for making new X programs go...forget it. So.. what do I have to do to get that directory back? 2) The ISP that I work at is working on offering DSL (Digital Subscriber Loop) and along with new stuff the employees get to test the goods. Has anyone successfully used DSL with FreeBSD? If so, what is involved. From my understanding its simply a fulltime connection, but I think it does require some special hardware.

The question is NOT whether FreeBSD supports it, but whether X supports it. Go to http://www.xfree86.org/ to see if it's supported. FreeBSD and RH both use XFree86 by default so if it doesn't work w/ RH it won't work w/ FreeBSD either.

Great! > speaking of which: what do you mean by "ports"? There are 2 kinds of ports (you mentioned serial, parallel etc). What we mean by ports in the context that's been used here is taking a piece of software and making it so that FreeBSD can compile and run it cleanly. Once a particular port has been committed, a user simply goes to /usr/ports/some_directory/some_program_I_want and types "make install" and your machine will automatically fetch the source, patch it for FreeBSD, compile, and install it. You can then remove it (say a new version comes out) by doing a make deinstall (or pkg_delete) and then reinstall the latest version of the port. Packages are a similar deal and are much like the rpm's found in RH - a pre-compiled version of a piece of software that can be added. The handbook contains lots of info about using ports and packages and you can find a list of the over 1600 ports available for FreeBSD at: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html Brett ****************************************************************** Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ "There is something uncanny in the noiseless rush of the cyclist, as he comes into view, passes by, and disappears." - Popular Science, 1891 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 11:07:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA10738 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 11:07:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.socket.net (mail.socket.net [204.120.70.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA10727 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 11:07:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ) Received: from 128.206.43.27 (members.socket.net [204.120.70.5]) by mail.socket.net (8.8.6/8.8.6) with SMTP id NAA00661 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:02:55 -0500 Message-Id: <199808131802.NAA00661@mail.socket.net> X-Envelope-To: To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: nathanm@socket.net Subject: man page crisis Date: Thu, 13 Aug 98 18:08:44 +0000 X-Mailer: Endymion MailMan v1.1 http: //www.endymion.com/portfolio/software/scripts/mailman.htm Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I can't RTFM!

(Theirs is a Cisco 450.) Jeremy-- I just did a couple of quick experiments at my lab. In these, traceroutes from a FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE box to a Cisco 7500 (IOS 11.2(13)) are missing the second of the three ICMP responses, as you saw. But so did traceroutes run from a Sun Ultra 2 (Solaris 2.5.1), and an Alpha (OSF/1 3.2). I bet the Cisco box has some kind of rate-limiting for ICMP packets. I seem to remember that Solaris boxes do this too, tentatively confirmed by a couple of traceroutes I just ran now. My gut feeling is that this isn't really a FreeBSD problem, but perhaps someone else more knowledgeable can give an authoritative answer. Bruce. PS. Why do traceroutes past the Cisco work fine? They're different ICMP error messages ("TTL expired", as opposed to "port unreachable"), probably generated by different codepaths in IOS. --==_Exmh_-1592123868P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNdMxkqjOOi0j7CY9AQHeFgP/f1LfovUjISi6sSH9iC2iZXhlqlzBUqWN xOK1infn0M7GNEQVlyCFxbwpFBaiEbiKoG2JLpi6FsvgZ8Ds4IGDIhhyAoB27g2I OiyPf8LGl4GV/DU/OdMVDENvJIEwH+eMlMIm7cs/jv0IpjVoXezHEQ0mxGIY41vs 4mDuz2uZzok= =6VEF -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --==_Exmh_-1592123868P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 11:38:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA14416 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 11:38:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from boris.talentsoft.com (boris.talentsoft.com [198.36.217.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA14292; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 11:37:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from info@TalentSoft.com) Received: from ip-155.vallon.com (ip-155.vallon.com [208.138.189.155]) by boris.talentsoft.com (8.9.0.Beta5/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA13642; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 12:41:47 GMT Received: by ip-155.vallon.com with Microsoft Mail id <01BDC6BF.7C679BE0@ip-155.vallon.com>; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:37:16 -0500 Message-ID: <01BDC6BF.7C679BE0@ip-155.vallon.com> From: TalentSoft To: "'dennis@cdrom.com'" , "'volkerdi@wcarchive.cdrom.com'" , "'dpfletch@cdrom.com'" , "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG'" , "'www@FreeBSD.org'" Cc: "'Eric J.

PRNewswire MINNEAPOLIS, June 22 /PRNewswire/ -- TalentSoft-Talent Information Management, LLC of Minneapolis announced today it was awarded funding from the Technology Partnership Fund (TPF) by the board of directors of Minnesota Technology, Inc. The funding will enable TalentSoft to develop and enhance the feature set of its existing Web+Shop online shopping cart application to a full-featured e-commerce system called Web+Commerce. Web+Commerce will be an Internet-based commerce system that allows suppliers of various products and services to market, sell, verify credit card accounts, and collect payment in real-time. This product will be designed to give small and middle-sized companies a cost-effective method of selling their products to everyday Web users. " With the funding from Minnesota Technology, Inc., TalentSoft will be taking a new and advanced approach to enhance the functionality and marketability of Web+Commerce, along with the continued improvement of our latest release of Web+ 4.0, " said Victor Tong, CEO of TalentSoft-Talent Information Management. TalentSoft will bring to the market some of the technological advances pioneered by the University of Minnesota in the Internet area, which promotes the technology transfer between the University and the industry. Web+Commerce will also benefit Minnesota-based companies, especially the small- to mid- sized manufacturing and product companies, by increasing trade between Minnesota companies and the rest of the world. The Web+Commerce system will enable Minnesota-based companies to quickly and cost-effectively market and sell their products directly to the worldwide marketplace via the Internet. Typically, custom designing an Internet e- commerce system is a very expensive and time consuming process involving substantial of software designing and programming expertise, which is quite cost prohibitive for a small company to undertake alone. Once the early adopters start using TalentSoft products, the company will benefit from an increasing marginal return in selling more incremental Web+Commerce copies through different channels of mass volume sales. Minnesota Technology, Inc. is a public non-profit organization that assists Minnesota companies in becoming more competitive through technology, and is part of the state' s strategy to strengthen the local economy. The Technology Partnership Fund was established by Minnesota Technology, Inc. to strengthen relationships between Minnesota' s small to medium-sized technology companies and post-secondary institutions within the state.

Before we get a new 2.2.7 release we were trying to install previous version (2.2.6) and we were experiencing following problem. When configuring kernel and resolving hardware conflicts in 2.2.2 ver the list of devices included two lines for NE2000 cards which is what we have in the machine. For version 2.2.6 we can see in the device list only one NE2000 card and that doesn't reflect our current hardware configuration. For the course, machines need to be setup with two network cards and the only thing we can do is to recompile the kernel afterwords. Is the difference between both FreeBSD versions something we have to live with? What do we have to do to get the list of all devices the same way as with the the older FreeBSD 2.2.2 version?

Yup. chmod 744 should do it. I can't imagine why manpath.config should not have world-read. (the man program is suid "man.bin") Another approach would be to change ownership of manpath.config to man.bin.

Time to be embarrassed. Amazing newbie question, though I have been everywhere looking for a reference: After resizing an xterm larger, ls outputs with the last column shifted way over, and the cursor no longer works correctly (look at "stats"). The cursor seems to jump past an area on the rhs of the screen: rcarter@Chuska:/www/sites [112] /bin/ls chino about.html business.html events.html images info.html stats banner.html chino.html history.html index.html resource.html rcarter@Chuska:/www/sites [113] I resize the xterm again, this time smaller, and I get: rcarter@Chuska:/www/sites [113] /bin/ls chino about.html chino.html images resource.html banner.html events.html index.html stats business.html history.html info.html rcarter@Chuska:/www/sites [114] which is as expected. This is bash2, and yes there are terminal escape sequences in the prompt but no they don't affect output of ls, i.e., if I take them out I get the same result. What gives?

Yeah, you're going to have to use two -- one for each interface.

You must run -CURRENT to get the parallel-port bus support, then hope that the vpo driver finds your drive. I'd seriously suggest using a SCSI version instead. It's faster and better supported.

No. The 789x series is quite new; you'll need the CAM patches to make use of controllers with those chips.

Well, of the files in the 2.2.6 distrib of X 3.3.2, I believe that all the /usr/X11R6/include files are in these tars: X332lib.tgz 85 680 6546 X332prog.tgz 227 1816 17101 X332upd.tgz 3 24 235 So the best bet is to extract from them. If the first CDROM is mounted on /cdrom, then #! /bin/sh DIR=/cdrom/XF86332 cd /usr/X11R6 tar xzpf $DIR/X332lib.tgz 'include/*' tar xzpf $DIR/X332prog.tgz 'include/*' tar xzpf $DIR/X332upd.tgz 'include/*' Should do the trick. If you don't have the cdrom, email me off-list, I tested the preceding and will have the files laying around for a few hours. About 365KB compressed. I could stick it on the web or email it.

I can confirm this behavior somewhat. Here in the Network Research Lab we have 10 FreeBSD machines with Kingston and Adaptec cards which operate under the de driver. We used to have Kingston SOHO hubs linking them all together. However, these hubs, to put it nicely, could be greatly improved with a sledgehammer. They would constantly collide and generate bad packets, which made the client machines, who are running NIS and NFS mounted /usr/local and /home, unusable. It'd play heck with our main server as well, which would occaisionally go on vacation. Resetting the interface with ifconfig down/up would solve it for a while. We received a Kingston EtherRX Pro 24 port rackmount hub which is much better quality than the Kingston SoHo. The SOHOs were sent back and now I swear by Asante minihubs. :) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 13:01:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA01010 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:01:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA01005 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:01:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.8) with SMTP id NAA24668; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:00:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 13:00:44 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Bob Fobian cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help???

I need it on my home computer. The boot floppy does not support parallel Zip drives. Some thoughts: 1. Take the home machine to work. :) 2. If the home machine has a DOS partition, you can download the files to there; see the LAYOUT.TXT and INSTALL.TXT files for info on how to layout the files on the DOS partition. 3. Download the files via modem (slow).

The biggest issue is security -- you don't want someone running around telling your servers to shut down. :) The way that comes to mind first is ssh with a null RSA passphrase, but if someone cracks root (or whatever user is logging in as) they have free access to roam around.

For some reason the server gave up on your connection. Perhaps it was rebooted? This happens every time I try to connect to FreeBSD.org or Apache.org only while running Freebsd and XFree86. It works fine to other sites that I connect to.

There is no "I/O recovery time" settings in this Phoenix BIOS. Thanks for the fast reply! BTW: This machine had similar problems with the ze driver.

So far traces from these *nix systems have the same result: FreeBSD (2.1.0, 2.2.1, 2.2.6, 2.2.7) NetBSD 1.2.1 OpenBSD 2.1 BSDI BSD/OS 2.1 Redhat 4.2 (2.0.30) Sun Ultra 2 (Solaris 2.5.1) Alpha (OSF/1 3.2). Do these all share the same traceroute code? At first I thought it was a BSDism, but so far every Unix system it's tried on gives the same thing. Remember that traces run from Windows and Macs seem to work. -===================================================================- Jeremy Shaffner JORSM Internet Senior Technical Support Northwest Indiana's Premium jer@jorsm.com Internet Service Provider support@jorsm.com http://www.jorsm.com -===================================================================- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 15:18:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA29157 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 15:18:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mercury.jorsm.com (mercury.jorsm.com [207.112.128.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA29152 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 15:18:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jer@jorsm.com) Received: from localhost (jer@localhost) by mercury.jorsm.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id RAA23867; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 17:18:05 -0500 (CDT) Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 17:18:04 -0500 (CDT) From: Jeremy Shaffner To: "Bruce A.

I can't speak for MacOS, but the Win95 tracert command uses ICMP echo requests (just confirmed via tcpdump), while all of the UNIX traceroute programs use UDP packets to arbitrary, high-numbered UDP ports. Presumably the Cisco IOS doesn't rate-limit ICMP echo replies in the same way that it does ICMP echo requests. (In an earlier message, you asked if the UNIX traceroutes all shared a common code base, and AFAIK the answer is "yes".)

When linking a shared version of the library, the make process executes a command something like ld -Bshareable -o libqt.ao `lorder /usr/lib/c++rt0.o \ some-very-long-list-of-files-in-subdirectories | tsort` \ -L/usr/X11R6 -lX11 The lorder ... | tsort mechanism reports a large number of cyclic dependencies in the object modules, but the library is built. When I examine the resultant shared library, I find a large number of external files symbols in it, ie, symbols with names like kernel/qpsprinter.o with a symbol type of 'F'. If I link against the shared library the link succeeds, but when I run the resulting executable I get a message like ld.so: Cannot load file kernel/qpsprinter.so (kernel/qpsprinter.o is one of the object files linked into the shared library). I then tried building a static version of the library. It again builds OK, but if I link against it I get a host of unresolved symbol references for symbols that are certainly defined in the component object files. Running ranlib on the static version allows the link to complete successfully. Because the ranlib appears to resolve the issue, what I think is happening is that the cyclic dependencies in the object files mean that not all symbols in the shared library are being resolved; consequently, the ld.so is attempting to resolve them at run-time. Two questions: 1) Is my belief as to the cause of the problem correct ? 2) (The obvious) How do I correct it / work around it. Reworking the object file breakdown to remove cyclic dependencies is not really an option given that this is someone else's code. Sorry for what is really a fairly simple question, but my background is more the SYSV/COFF/ELF world, where the linker seems to hold your hand a bit more. Thanks for any insights, Phil Ware plw@mtiame.mtia.asn.au To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 13 18:32:50 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA25641 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 18:32:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp2.mailsrvcs.net (smtp2.gte.net [207.115.153.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA25631 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 18:32:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from phbrown@gte.net) Received: from gte.net (1Cust142.tnt21.sfo3.da.uu.net [208.254.227.142]) by smtp2.mailsrvcs.net with ESMTP id UAA00849 for ; Thu, 13 Aug 1998 20:32:11 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <35D39392.3572DB28@gte.net> Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 18:32:03 -0700 From: Parker Brown X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Subject: Installation on a full FAT32 Disk Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My old PC died in battle, and I've just begun using a new Dell with a 4G HDD that is completely full with Win98/FAT32 file system.

"Does FREEBSD have releases in other languages -- like Win95 has releases in other languages?" not "Does FREEBSD have releases that run under other languages, er, Operating Systems, like Win95" He was asking if FreeBSD was distributed with support for other languages, like FreeBSD Spanish, or FreeBSD Dutch -- probably so that the installation procedure, system messages, etc, would be in a different language. I don't believe so, though I've heard of a documentation project in Spanish. You might want to check out http://www.freebsd.org.

After I created the partitions into wd2s1a / 64MB (FS), wd2s1b 80MB (swap), wd2s1e /usr 64MB (FS), wd2s1f /var 32MB (FS), wd2s1g /local 980MB (FS), I got to install FreeBSD from ftp3.freebsd.org. But it broke in the halfway and said disk is full when installing ports. Up till now, I don't know how to do next. Do you think that the partitions I set up is correct or not. Because after I select a partition as a FS partition, it always requires a directory name for the partition. Do you think the name is correct or not. Thank you very much and I look forward to your early reply. Sincerely, Bill J.

I don't know why this | crept into some README file. | | Start it from your rc.local (or even from a X.sh script in | /usr/local/etc/rc.d), and be explicit about how it has to start. | If this is your last action in rc.local, put a ``sleep 1'' behind, | to allow xdm to properly daemonize before the rc shell exits. I suspect that one of /etc/ttys and /usr/share/doc/FAQ needs to be corrected. I would like some feedback as to the reasoning behind the FAQ's comments and any possible reasons that this has crept into /etc/ttys regardless of the warning. Perhaps something changed in terms of what is and isn't kosher? Once I know what the story is, I'll be happy to send-pr, but I'd rather not waste people's time until I know what's cutting.

Typically the path to the spool directories is /var/spool/lpd. Check the available space with `df -k /var/spool/lpd'. In any case, you can print the file with `lpr -P -s dis_sm0.ps'. The `-s' avoids copying of the file to the spool directory.

Most Unix filesystems hold back a small percentage of space from normal users. This is important to the way in which Unix filesystems handle fragmentation (which, BTW, mean something different than fragmentation of a FAT-type filesystem).

That's simple: one partition. About the only thing you might want to consider is to add a second swap partition. FreeBSD is getting quite swap-hungry (it's a performance tradeoff, a reasonable on in my eyes), and you should aim to have at least 256 MB of swap.

Is it based on memory? It's a common mistake for people to think that swap space should be reserved as a function of the amount of main memory. It's really not related to that except perhaps to suggest a minimum (you should always have at least as much swap as RAM). The basic rule is that you need enough swap space for your applications to run and not run out. These days for desktop systems and many server systems, this figure seems to be around 250-300MB, but could be more or less depending on what you're trying to do. >How has the swap requirement changed from previous versions? It hasn't changed much. There's a natural tendency, however, for applications to get larger over time as new features are added, etc., so you should plan for this. -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 Fri Aug 14 05:37:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA16890 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 05:37:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from flarn.dyn.ml.org (usr316.third-wave.com [147.72.122.127]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA16874 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 05:37:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mph@flarn.dyn.ml.org) Received: (from mph@localhost) by flarn.dyn.ml.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA03623; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 08:35:50 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from mph) Message-ID: <19980814083550.A3557@flarn.dyn.ml.org> Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 08:35:50 -0400 From: Matthew Hunt To: Craig Beasland , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Procmail References: <000001bdc75b$c4e11a80$0a1e21cb@superbruce.hotmix.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93i In-Reply-To: <000001bdc75b$c4e11a80$0a1e21cb@superbruce.hotmix.com.au>; from Craig Beasland on Fri, Aug 14, 1998 at 04:14:26PM +0800 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, Aug 14, 1998 at 04:14:26PM +0800, Craig Beasland wrote: > Has anyone used procmail for FreeBSD.

I do, and I would hope that a lot of people reading freebsd-questions and other high-volume lists would do so as well. I get hundreds of messages per day, and sure wouldn't want them all ending up in my inbox! Procmail can be somewhat memory-hungry (and CPU hungry, depending on your rules). I've seen it bring a 486 with 16 MB to its knees for 15 minutes or so, when a backlog of list mail was delivered. I have never had any problems on my own machine, which has had 32 MB and up. It is my understanding that procmail needs to hold the whole message in memory during processing; if you regularly get big emails (on the order of your memory size) expect problems. I have neither heard about nor encountered FreeBSD-specific issues.

First, your approach fails to delete the files "hola.txt" and "foo.shut", which, though not mentioned, of course need to be removed as well. Second, deleting a large number of files as this one is tricky in itself. Even "rm *" does not work, since the argument list passed to exec is too long. ARG_MAX is 64K by default, which is easily reached by 11000 Files with names 6 characters long. Provided the shell can handle a "*" expansion of 6 million files, it is easiest to move the two files out of the way and pipe the "*" expansion to xargs: mkdir .keep mv la.txt foo.sh .keep echo * | xargs rm mv .keep/* . rmdir .keep If the shell can't handle this(*), you'd have to make e. g. a perl script which does the necessary opendir()/readdir() itself and erases the files. (*) I did not want to try it with 6 million files. But then, it is unwise to put so many files into one directory anyway. -- Juergen Nickelsen Tellique Kommunikationstechnik GmbH Gustav-Meyer-Allee 25, 13355 Berlin, Germany Tel. +49 30 46307-552 / Fax +49 30 46307-579 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 06:43:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA27620 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 06:43:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from emerald.accessv.com (emerald.accessv.com [206.221.248.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA27614 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 06:43:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from poyacomp@accessv.COM) Received: from accessv.COM (164.209.5.199.dialup.accessv.com [209.5.199.164]) by emerald.accessv.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id JAA19656 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:56:26 -0400 Message-ID: <3583D4E6.455EEEE0@accessv.COM> Date: Sun, 14 Jun 1998 09:49:27 -0400 From: Poya Computers Information X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: proxy server Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Can you refer me to some sites, online books or anything which explains how to setup a proxy server. -- Web Site: www.PoyaComputers.COM Telephone: (416) 621-2199 Facsimile: (416) 621-0522 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 06:49:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA28464 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 06:49:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netra.graphnet.com (netra.graphnet.com [192.206.112.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA28455 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 06:49:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from romank@graphnet.com) Received: from graphnet.com (roman.graphnet.com [192.206.112.93]) by netra.graphnet.com (8.8.8/8.8.6) with ESMTP id JAA29942 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:48:57 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <35D4421F.65182BD2@graphnet.com> Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:56:47 -0400 From: Roman Katsnelson Organization: Graphnet, Inc X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (WinNT; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "q's" Subject: second machine name 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 a news server which is known to the world (and, more importantly, our feed) as radius.graphnet.com.

Certainly. >I know I will have to make another DNS entry for the same address, but >is there anything involved on the local level? Alternative DNS approaches include creating an additional A record: $ORIGIN graphnet.com. radius IN A 192.206.112.189 news IN A 192.206.112.189 or you could use a CNAME record: $ORIGIN graphnet.com. radius IN A 192.206.112.189 news IN CNAME radius In either case, there is no change needed for the zone file that contains the "reverse" (PTR) records. If your internal DNS records are maintained separately from your externally-visible ones, the additional record need only be inserted in the internal zone file. Be sure to make the serial number in the SOA record of the affected zone file bigger, and send named a HUP signal. A similar effect is also obtainable via the hosts file, but I tend to prefer DNS, and since you hinted that you use DNS anyway, I'll leave it at that. david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 07:52:54 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA06683 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 07:52:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw (bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw [140.115.70.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA06675 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 07:52:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mihs.bbs@bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw) Received: (from bbsm@localhost) by bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw (8.8.8/8.8.4) id WAA09712 for FAQ@FreeBSD.ORG; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 22:52:14 +0800 (CST) Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 22:52:14 +0800 (CST) Message-Id: <199808141452.WAA09712@bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw> Reply-To: mihs.bbs@bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw From: mihs.bbs@bbs.ee.ncu.edu.tw (PA) To: FAQ@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Some Error in FAQ X-Sent-By: mihs (PA) HX-Disclaimer: ®¤ ¤¤¥¡¤j¾ÇªQÀÜ­·±¡¸ê°T¯¸ µLªk¹ï¥»«H¤§¤º®e­t³d.

I was trying to show what, in my view, was a pretty comprehensive review. More impressive was the "write once, run in lots of places" aspect of Java. Normally I see that Linux, and more often, FreeBSD are excluded from this sort of thing, often for no good reason that I can see. BTW, what is Kaffe? Adam.

(2) I'm using the imap-uw port (4.2) and pine (4.02 and 4.02a). When I start pine, I get the "busy spinner" [Opening "INBOX" <-> ] which sits there for about 10 seconds before it prompts me for login/password. I also get this delay whenever I open a new folder. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any theories as to what the delay could be caused by? It isn't resolution of the IMAP host or port; "telnet host imap4" returns immediately. The pine debugging output shows (I had set the host to 127.0.0.1 to eliminate that as a cause): -------debug output------- Debug output of the Pine program (debug=9 debug_imap=4). Version 4.02 Thu Aug 13 13:58:42 1998 ...

But even at debug level 9, there isn't enough information here to tell what it's trying to do while it sleeps. Clearly it's before it connects to imapd, though.

We have encountered a number of problems: [1] Two of our machines (say A and B) are dual interfaced (the -i interfaces are 10BaseT and the -ii interfaces are 100BaseT): A-i <---10BaseT---> B-i A-ii <--100BaseT---> B-ii When A and B talk over the 10BaseT interfaces, things are ok :) When they use their 100BaseT interfaces, thing are not ok :( With large NFS transfers, the client seems to hang. With smaller transfers, some threshold related messages are syslog'ed yet the transfer appears to complete. [2] Bringing an interface down and then up does not seem to work. Also, if a network cable is disconnected for a second and then reconnected immediately, the associated interface cannot be used (again bringing it down and then up does not work). [3] For someone who has been spoiled by the LDP and all related printed material, are there any FreeBSD administration books out there? Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the relevant info: uname -a FreeBSD ball 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Thu Aug 13 09:18:36 EDT 1998 root@:/usr/src/sys/compile/BALL i386 interfaces: (Used at 10mb/s) de0 rev 48 int a irq 5 on pci0:10:0 de0: 21143 [10-100Mb/s] pass 3.0 de0: address 00:48:54:00:1b:97 (Used at 100mb/s) de1 rev 48 int a irq 9 on pci0:12:0 de1: 21143 [10-100Mb/s] pass 3.0 de1: address 00:48:54:00:13:a1 (Used at 10mb/s) de2 rev 34 int a irq 10 on pci0:14:0 de2: 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.2 de2: address 00:40:05:41:aa:d3 /var/log/messages Aug 14 10:17:19 ball /kernel: de0: enabling 10baseT port Aug 14 10:17:19 ball /kernel: de1: enabling 100baseTX port Aug 14 10:17:19 ball /kernel: de2: enabling 10baseT port Aug 14 10:17:29 ball login: ROOT LOGIN (root) ON ttyv0 Aug 14 10:18:37 ball /kernel: de1: receive: 00:48:54:00:0d:5b: bad crc Aug 14 10:18:40 ball /kernel: de1: receive: 00:48:54:00:0d:5b: bad crc Aug 14 10:20:05 ball /kernel: de1: abnormal interrupt: transmit underflow (raising TX threshold to 96|256) Aug 14 10:20:06 ball /kernel: de1: abnormal interrupt: transmit underflow (raising TX threshold to 8|512) Aug 14 10:20:09 ball /kernel: de1: abnormal interrupt: transmit underflow (raising TX threshold to 1024) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 09:47:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA24265 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:47:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netbox.com (home.netbox.com [206.24.105.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA24244 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:46:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jwgray@netbox.com) Received: from localhost (jwgray@localhost) by netbox.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id JAA14740; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:46:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jwgray@netbox.com) Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:46:35 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeff Gray To: David Greenman cc: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: Swap size recommnedations?

Well there had been problems when you were receiving big mails (big means here >10MB on a 64MB machine with 512MB swap). This was due to the silly way that procmail uses when reading the message: It reads it in small (32k IIRC) chunks and reallocs the memory after that for every chunk. This made the process rather slow and very very memory consuming. I have made a small and ugly patch to circumvent this: Memory is now realloced in 4M chunks. This doesn't hurt for small messages because the memory only gets used if it is really accessed. (Hope the VM hackers forgive me for this primitve way of describing this :-)) The patch is now in mail/procmail/patches/patch-ae, so if you use procmail by using the port, you should be fine. Now I have tested 128MB messages on the baove machines without problems. -Andre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 10:42:15 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA04861 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 10:42:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from david.siemens.de (david.siemens.de [192.35.17.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA04855 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 10:42:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from andre.albsmeier@mchp.siemens.de) X-Envelope-Sender-Is: andre.albsmeier@mchp.siemens.de (at relayer david.siemens.de) Received: from mail.siemens.de (salomon.siemens.de [139.23.33.13]) by david.siemens.de (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id TAA24420 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 19:41:42 +0200 (MET DST) Received: from curry.mchp.siemens.de (daemon@curry.mchp.siemens.de [146.180.31.23]) by mail.siemens.de (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id TAA28431 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 19:41:43 +0200 (MET DST) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by curry.mchp.siemens.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA13836 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 19:41:39 +0200 (CEST) From: Andre Albsmeier Message-Id: <199808141741.TAA13057@internal> Subject: Re: StarOffice In-Reply-To: <199808121439_MC2-55D3-FFE5@compuserve.com> from Strobel at "Aug 12, 98 02:37:14 pm" To: 100730.3706@compuserve.com (Strobel) Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 19:41:35 +0200 (CEST) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL40 (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 > Hi, > i want to use the StarOffice package under FreeBSD.

This was introduced in version 1.14 according to the CVS log. However, I didn't find an explanation why this change was made. Is it a security hole? If this behaviour is considered, maybe we should not in the manual page that 'lpr -s -r' only removes the symlink and is equal to 'lpr -s'... What do you think?

We moved the physical location of our FreeBSD machine from one room to another, in doing so, we ended up booting the FreeBSD machine while it was not connected to the network. We hooked a cable into it after it was booted (sitting at a login prompt)- I logged in as root and shut it down- we restarted the computer and now it will not ping the network- not it's gateway, and definately nothing outside. I've tried using the /stand/sysinstall to reset the IP address and double-checked the gateway, but, I haven't had any luck doing anything at all.

OK. That I will do. By coincidence, I have just finished reading chapter 12 of The Complete FreeBSD. I wish I'd bought this book before I'd installed FreeBSD. The time this book would have saved me! For example, if I'd read Chapter 11 before I installed my CD-ROM, I'd have not had the entry in my diary titled "Where did my file system go?". thanks. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 14 14:38:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA17910 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 14:38:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from java.dpcsys.com (java.dpcsys.com [206.16.184.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA17898 for ; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 14:38:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@dpcsys.com) Received: from localhost (dan@localhost) by java.dpcsys.com (8.8.7/8.8.2) with SMTP id OAA16469; Fri, 14 Aug 1998 14:38:03 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 14:38:03 -0700 (PDT) From: Dan Busarow To: Michael Jaskowiak cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD DNS In-Reply-To: <35D466C9.2F66@interpath.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 14 Aug 1998, Michael Jaskowiak wrote: > Aug 14 12:17:01 samuel named[490]: localhost.rev: No such file or > directory > Aug 14 12:17:01 samuel named[490]: rcsal-reverse: line 7: database > format error > (samuel.rcsal.com.) > Aug 14 12:17:01 samuel named[490]: Zone "120.5.135.IN-ADDR.ARPA" (file > rcsal-rev > erse): no SOA RR found > Aug 14 12:17:01 samuel named[490]: primary zone "120.5.135.IN-ADDR.ARPA" > rejecte > d due to errors (serial 1998081315) [snip] > And here is my db.rcsal.com file: > > rcsal.com.

When I did that, I realized I had one last funny thing going on, because I'd done something strange during disklabeling, and it kept telling me that the primary partition table was bad (NO MAGIC). I realized I hadn't even partitioned it at all, because (as I'd done before) I had no intention whatsoever of ever running DOS/Windows on it, so I'd done no partitioning. Maybe it was complaining. I reformatted the 4.3G SCSI disk, and then used the FreeBSD fdisk program to stick a partition table in it. I took the defaults for all, which set partition 4 as the whole disk, and set it to use FreeBSD. OK. When I did that, it refused to disklabel, telling me there was no space. If I don't do that, it does the disklabel, but always complains that the partition table is bad (NO MAGIC). Given a choice, I'd have no partition table, but I can't see what I'm doing wrong. I'd thought that the correct procedure was: 1) scsiformat the disk 2) disklabel the disk, using the auto setup. 3) go back, disklabel using -e -r, so I could manually edit in the b (swap) and e partitions. 4) newfs the e partition 5) stick both partitions in /etc/fstab 6) begin file operations.

Please delete you have a problem with it !!! Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sorry if this question may bother some. I don't know where else to ask and get a response back. My question reqards two routers. One is a Cisco 2500 series and other is a cabletron router. Cabletron router has an ip address of say 199.199.199.63 subnett 255.255.255.192 Cisco has a ip address say of 199.199.199.1 subnet mask of 255.255.255.192 . I would like to use the cisco as a gateway. I wish to direct traffic to the internal network via frame over to one t1 and default traffic to the cabletron router (.63) out to the net. The two routers are connected to the same hub with a cross over cable from the cabletron router to the hub. When i set up ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 199.199.199.63 nothing happens except. If I ping 199.199.199.63 from the cisco connected to the same hub with a plan 10-base T I get a response but from 255.255.255.0 or from 199.199.199.10. .10 is a termserver. I'm thinking that you can't use .63 , something about the first and last ip address on a network. Do I need to change the ip address of the Cabletron to .62 instead of .63 subnet mask of 255.255.255.192 ? Is there a problem with the cross over cable on the cabletron connection to the HUB. Again sorry if this question bothers anyone.

Reinstalling is a Windows methodology that does NOT work with FreeBSD.

How do I get it to its normal state? That is a normal state. Select() is a system call that checks a set of file descriptors for data; basically, it's waiting for input. Think you could shorten your .sig a bit?

Thanks for the input. I hate to belabor the point; but, why then does mount show the device driver associated with my / partition as /dev/sd0a while fdisk says that my FreeBSD partition is partition 2. (Partition 1 is msdos and partitions 3 and 4 are unused (at least according to fdisk)). I would think, if anything, that /dev/sd0a would be associated with the very first partition (in my case the msdos partition). IOW, I would think that 0 would go with the very first partition, 1 with the second, etc. I'll save for another question the fact that the device driver for my /usr partition is /dev/sd02f and the device driver for my /var partition is /dev/sd02e. I have no idea how those were determined. I also am still unclear on what the device driver for my msdos partition should be. Thanks for any further input.

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

If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). 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/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -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. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): Page 11 Install ports when installing the system === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in Page 13 Starting the spooler the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a Page 15 Starting the spooler problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 17 Starting the spooler book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

On the mailing list I found another replacement Makefile which I also tried. Still no joy. Checking the link(5) man page I found a CAVEAT that only GNU C currently supports the creation of shared libraries. Is this really the case ? I thought that I had built qt-1.32 on this system, but maybe my memory is faulty. (Qt is C++ code). Am I right in assuming that ld should be able to handle object files with circular dependencies in them ? Why exactly is ld.so looking for the file at run-time ? I would have thought either 1) All symbols in the executable had been resolved when the executable is linked against the shared library OR 2) The link of the executable against the shared library would have failed with unresolved symbols.

The same exact thing happened to me, using the same exact drive. (Well, mine wasn't exactly the same.. it was the 24x version of this drive, and probed as "WPI CDS-24X ...") I posted to freebsd-hardware concerning this, and did not get any replies. So I went ahead and explored the problem on my own. I found that if you compile with "#define DEBUG" in /sys/i386/isa/atapi.c, you will get lots of debug printouts. Looking at these, I came to the conclusion that the drive was not being probed properly. At about the same time, I discovered other odd problems. I also run Linux on this machine, and was occasionally getting an error message when moving large amounts of data off of a CD (although the drive *did* work udner Linux). Also, under Windows 95, the drive would occasionally "disappear" from the system's point of view, and also sometimes it would appear as a hard disk icon instead of a CD-ROM (and would not work when it did this). So these results led me to two possibilities: (1) I have a defective unit, and (2) these drives are pieces of @#^$@#%$. In any case, it wasn't working out, so I went back to the store where I purchased it and exchanged it for another drive. I ended up with a NEC 32X ATAPI CD-ROM drive, and it is working great, under FreeBSD as well as Linux and Win95. Since you have the same problem as I did, and since I now recall hearing some very bad thoings about Wearnes in the past, I'm now leaning towards the "avoid this brand at all costs" line of thinking. My advice to o you is to return this drive immediately -- do NOT pass GO, do NOT collect $200... -- and get something nicer. The NEC 32x that I mentioned is working very nicely for me, is MUCH quieter than the Wearnes (It doesn't make that nasty vibrating/wobbling noise when it spins up), and most of all, works perfectly under all three OS's. Plus it was only $10 more than the 24x-with-soundcard kit that I had originally bought. --- Donald Burr *NEW EMAIL ADDRESS!* | PGP: Your WWW HomePage: http://DonaldBurr.base.org/ ICQ#16997506 | right to Address: P.O.

The freebsd box has 2 network interface cards, vx0 is configured to access the internet, and de0 (ip=192.168.0.1)is configued to hopefully be a gateway device for the win95 boxes on my local network. I am able to ping the win95 boxes from the bsd box, and ping the bsd box (both ip addresses) from the win95 boxes. The win95 boxes have ip addresses in the form, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4, etc..... The default gateway setup in the win95 tcpip configuration is 192.168.0.1, which points to the nic in the bsd box. I am including the output from the netstat -rn, and the ifconfig -a commands below. I have read, re-read, configured, and tested netd, routed, and of coarse my rc.conf file. The examples in the handbook obviously are of no assistance to me, or I would have had this up and running two weeks ago. I think that I need help with the following: natd routed ipfw rc.conf any other stuff that needs to be setup. I'm terribly sorry to keep sending messages about the same topic, but I simply can not get this thing to work (although I have gotten ppp -ailases to work). Any assistance would be appreciated.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am playing around with 3.0-19980804-SNAP on a quad PPro Dell box. We primarily run NetBSD, and I was surprised that there are no COMPAT_NETBSD options, and nothing in /usr/ports/emulators for NetBSD. Is there any support (or planned support) for running ``modern'' (post-1.2) NetBSD executables? When I try it, executables bomb out on the stat13 syscall, and I'm guessing there might be some other similar emulation issues involved. FWIW, NetBSD can run FreeBSD executables, so I can always recompile everything under FreeBSD and run it on all our machines, but I'd rather not invest that effort until we've torture tested FreeBSD for a few days/weeks -- chicken-and-egg problem. But it appears I have no choice? Thanks. Brian -- "If you get 100 power engineers in a room, 101 of them will work this problem like this." - R. P.

I plan to do the some kind of PVN connections with ppp over tcp. But I will need a backup dial-up connection between networks too for emergency cases. I guess such scheme of working: client connected over tcp to ppp-pear and acts as gateway to its own network. If ppp-pear becomes unavailable client must establish dial-up link and rewrite default route. Than, if remote party becomes visible over radioethernet, dial-up link must be broken and ppp over tcp runs again... Can this be done using user-ppp's multi-link options?

It's a religious issue.  It works one way on some systems and other ways
on others.  We just had a big argument about this, see the mail archives.
 
Using "off" doesn't work for me, i.e. doesn't start the xdm after boot up. I just got normal text consoles.  However, with  ON, i.e.

 ttyv3  /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon"  xterm   on  secure

runs fine. Is this normal ?

X-lummer: Bill Gates MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello people, weird thing has happened here after I played with ethernet wires of my BSD box abit. (just took them, disconnected, atttached to other network etc). While the rest of machines here were ok, (linux box) BSD machine eluminated possible arp problem: it started dumping message " arplookup for X.X.X.X fialed: host is not in LAN". while the other machines where fine. Could connect to each other with no problem and only X.X.X.X machine couldn't connect to my bsd box. It looks like a bug in Inet kernel code to me, since kernel started sending some other packets (sync probably) to some other machine, which reported in its logs "possible syn floods. Sending cookies..." at port 113. Any ideas what may've caused such behaviour and how to fix things without rebooting machine?

No. By revoking remote access to your lpd, e.g. firewall, you would still have an exposure that local users could exploit, which in this case revoking access to local users would solve the problem. I think you get the picture...

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Every time I install FreeBSD I get Booteasy. With every new install I try to NOT have installed, but no matter what I do it installs. Just installed 2.2.7 and not only Booteasy was installed, but for the first time I am not able to get rid of it. I use OS/2 boot manager. How I installed 2.2.7: Did label without going into partitioning. Deleted old mount points (slices?) and did new ones (I wanted to change the space allocation). Continue with install. I was not asked if I wanted boot easy or not. After install finished I reboot and found Booteasy install. At first it seemed to be working; I was able to go into win95, OS/2 and FreeBSD. This morning I was not able to go into Win95 and when I went into OS/2 I got OS/2's boot manager and still could not boot Win95. >From OS/2 tried re-installing the boot manager. Tried deleting the FreeBSD partition. Finally I boot from a win95 floppy and did "sys c:". I STILL get booteasy, but at least now I can get into win95. Questions -How do I get rid of booteasy so I can re-install OS/2 boot manager? -What do I have to do TO NOT GET booteasy. With every install I have ever done of FreeBSD I have tried at one point or another all three boot options (Boot manager, normal and leave boot record alone) and it seems boot easy get's installed no matter what. At least on previous versions I was able to re-install OS/2 boot manager.

New installation of 2.2.6-RELEASE with added complexity outlined below. First the messages: changing root device to st1s1a Intel Pentium F00F detected, installing workaround swapon: /dev/sd0s1b: Invalid argument Automatic reboot in progress...

Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: But hang on, look at what else is here: IDE disk with IBM boot manager, DOS and FreeBSD sd0 DOS and another FreeBSD sd1 new FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE (the problem one) sd2 FAT But wait, there's more... To do the installation (from CD) I disabled the IDE (wdc0) and unplugged sd0, making the working disk take the name sd0 temporarily. Now of course it's called sd1 again. Yes it booted fine as sd0 before I plugged the first SCSI disk back in. Yes I typed stuff at the boot: prompt, and I also put the info in boot.config (by mounting the disk from another copy of FreeBSD). Did I get the numbers wrong? I figured it'd be 2:sd(1,a)kernel (2=third bios drive, 1=second SCSI disk) If I point the boot manager at wd0 or sd0 it'll boot either of those FreeBSDs fine. If I point the boot manager at sd1 and I type: 2:sd(1,a)kernel it boots off the correct disk (sd1) and complains as above. 1:sd(1,a)kernel it uses the kernel from sd0 but lands me in single user mode on sd1, and complains as above, word for word. If I point the boot manager at FreeBSD on wd0 and type 2:sd(1,a)kernel the results are the same. Nothing I've read (including man boot) helps me see exactly what's going on here, beyond stating what works in simpler cases. Next thing to try is to build it a kernel elsewhere and copy it over, but that'd be tricky (different versions) and anyway, getting it to boot isn't all that important. It's more useful to me to understand why what I've done isn't working.

Ouch. I bet "real" sd1's /etc/fstab is just chock full of references to sd0sX > Yes it booted fine as sd0 before I plugged the first SCSI disk back in. Right, sd0... Repeat last comment, s/bet/really bet/ At this point, I would boot FreeBSD from any but the sd1 system; I would fsck the sd1s1X partitions. Then I would mount the sd1s1a on /mnt, and poke around in /mnt/etc, looking for sd0 [fstab :) ] where it should be sd1. I just went through this drill yesterday, more or less. (I was using a scsi controller trick to accomplish the same as unplugging the drive.) Alas, this stuff arises because of convenience and user friendliness. You have to jump through hoops to get the ancient behavior (the one the gods intended men to use), where SCSI ID 4 becomes sd4, regardless of what other devices are on the SCSI bus. My two drives are ID 0 and ID 2, but show up as sd0 and sd1. If I tell the controller to boot from ID 2, then ID 2 becomes sd0 and ID 0 becomes sd1. This is, of course, user friendly. Grrrr. It's real friendly, until you want to boot the rescue on ID 2. This will be sd0 if old ID 0 has failed due to hardware (can't be detected by the controller) or sd1 if ID 0 is still alive at the SCSI level. The hoops to jump through involve, IIRC, "wiring" the ID to a specific device by configuring yet another new kernel. (Your problem won't require this, I think).

Your local addresses are in the internal network range and all routers on the internet are supposed to ignore these addresses. natd will magically transform the illegal address to a legal address and send it to the internet. when the reply comes back natd will reverse the transform and forward the packet to the originating machine on your internal network.

When I initially tried to mount the CDROM on the 2.2.5 system, it failed with "BLANK CHECK" errors and often crashed the 2.2.5 host. I never could read it at all. I then tried a 2.2.6 CDROM, and it worked perfectly, at least at first. So, I called Walnut Creek and they immediately sent me back a replacement for the CDROM. While I was waiting for it, I spent a day installing a 2.2.6 system. It took a whole day because as time went on, I started getting more and more read errors on the CDROM. Finally, though, at the end of the day I gave up, with *almost* a complete 2.2.6 system installed. The next morning when I woke up, I had an idea. I live in the central valley of California, where the temperatures have been in the 80's in the mornings, reaching well above 100 in the afternoon. It ocurred to me that the CDROM error rate correlated with the thermometer reading a bit too much for my comfort. So I turned the air conditioner on full blast, got the temperature into the 60's, and aimed a fan at the CDROM reader, then tried to install from the previously unreadable 2.2.7 CDROM. There was still an occasional error, but the install's native retrying was enough to deal with most of the problems; in a few hours I had a 2.2.7 system up and running. So, the first lesson, at least for some CDROM readers (mine is a Pioneer DRM-600) , is that they are temperature sensitive, and the failure mode mimics bad media in that some CDROMs may be totally unreadable, while others will appear to read OK. While I was wrassling with this, I discovered another thing which can mess up an installation if your hardware is a bit flaky: buffering. When you are installing over a network, there are two main ways to do it: NFS and FTP. I generally use NFS because you don't have to type as much to set it up. In NFS, the system seems to buffer up a ton of stuff so that less hardware access is required. This is (I believe) on top of buffering by the normal disk system. Under certain conditions, a read error on the CDROM would cause the target system to report a *write* error (which at first caused me to suspect bad blocks on the target machine's disk drive--see below). I still don't know why this happened, but I eventually figured out that it just had to do with the CDROM read errors. The problem is that when install retried, then sometimes the bad blocks stayed somewhere in the buffers--you would get consistent errors at the same point, retry after retry, but the light on the CDROM drive would never blink: the (bad) data was just being read out of a buffer. The workaround was to install something else to saturate the buffer, then go back to the missing distribution(s) or package(s). A similar thing seemed to happen in FTP, but since now data was just in the host's disk cache, it seemed to clear up more easily, or maybe I was just luckier with FTP. There was one final lesson I learned: in an attempt to deal with what I thought was a bad disk on the target system, I enabled bad144 sector replacement. This was back when I was loading the 2.2.6 system. I didn't get enough unrecoverable errors to keep me from completing a successful install, but when I tried to reboot the system, one of the blocks required for booting was at the far end of the disk--maybe it was just trying to read the bad sector table itself--and boot totally failed. I had a fairly complete, painfully loaded, 2.2.6 system that was going to require me to buy more hardware to boot it. So, if you think you *must* enable bad144 on a boot disk, you probably should create a separate fdisk partition to contain just the root (and swap?); if I understand correctly, bad144 is done within each fdisk partition independently, so no blocks above that partition will be needed for booting. However, for the record, it turned out that the disk was OK and I went on to load a system on it later without bad144: I have a feeling that bad144 is probably never needed on modern SCSI or IDE disks. -Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 15 14:26:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA14752 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 14:26:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from horton.iaces.com (horton.iaces.com [204.147.87.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA14727 for ; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 14:26:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from proot@horton.iaces.com) Received: (from proot@localhost) by horton.iaces.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id QAA21746; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 16:25:27 -0500 (CDT) From: "Paul T.

The BIOS on your computer allows you to create 4 partitions, for DOS, Windows, Unix, Linux, OS/2, whatever. In FreeBSD we refer to those as slices, hence sd0s1, sd0s2, ... Then inside your FreeBSD slice, you can then up to 8 BSD partitions, a thru h.

This is a more honest approach to naming the partition, telling you the BIOS slice and the BSD partition. In 2.2.6, they have changed sd0a to sd0s?a. Hopefully, this will avoid confusion for other people. > Thanks for any further input.

Before the install, I successully partitioned the drive into 3 partitions as follows using Partition Magic: Partition 1: FAT about 2G Partition 2: NTFS about 6G Partition 3: unused about 8G In addition, Partition Magic indicates that the geometry of the drive is 2055 cyls, 255 hds, 63 sects. During FreeBSD bootup, it correctly identified the drive, but incorrectly reported that there is 16383 cyls, 16 hds, 63 sects, 512 b/s, and a total of 8063MB in 16514064 sectors. Then in the fdisk stage of install, it showed that there is 1027 cyls, 255 hds, and 63 sects, which is also wrong. In addition, it failed to see partition 3 altogether and did not recognize partition to be NTFS. I am wondering if anybody has gotten FreeBSD to see the whole drive and properly install FreeBSD onto the system.

Did that, but the gremlins are one step ahead of me. It still won't let me in coz there's no /dev/sd1s1a, only sd1 (but of course they're all present for sd0!). It starts complaining about not finding swap and then gets fussy about everything else. I tried changing to /dev/sd1a in fstab to fool it long enough to make the devices, but it still wouldn't let me mount /. I don't suppose I can make the right devices on sd1 by mounting the drive after booting from sd0, can I?

Yeah, works predictably until something out of the ordinary happens, like hardware failure. I have details of all my SCSI devices tabulated on a card, all the names and numbers they are allocated by the various gods, where they are on the chain and what identifying marks are visible without removing them. This card is inside the case.

What you see with ls -l /dev/sd1s1a is /all/ there is. The business parts are b or c, and the device numbers.

I fried my disk label... 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 Hi all, I hope this is the right place to ask this, but at the moment I can't get out much. Here is my situation: On my second hard drive (wd1) I have two partitions: one for NT and one for FreeBSD. Today, I added a new hard drive to my system, and as a result, I am now converting the NT partition to another BSD partition. So, I booted BSD and pulled up /stand/sysinstall. I used Configure|Fdisk to delete the NT partition and create a BSD one in its place. Then I ran the disk label editor. Since the label editor had my current mountpoints as question marks and not their current status, I thought that I should fix those. Well, when I committed the changes, it panic'd and rebooted when it tried to run disklabel on the then-mounted root partition (wd1s2a). Well, when I tried to boot BSD again, it said that it couldn't read the root partition. I booted the system with a 2.2.2 floppy and used the fixit option with the 2nd CD. I have successfully mounted my old root partition in the shell and fsck'ed. I have also fsck'd my old /usr and /var partitions and everything is Ok. I did lose two files on my root partition (they were unreferenced) but both kernel and kernel.GENERIC are still ok on the root partition. I'm running 2.2.7-stable from about August 10th, btw. What can I do to get the bootloader to recognize my old root partition on wd1s2a so that I can boot? Please mail me directly at this address since I'm not reading the questions list. Thanks for any and all help.

FYI, I've seen the temperature inside a building be 72, yet the computer will still show heat related problems. It is a good idea to shove as many fans into a computer as you can! My Dual P-166 had 8 fans in it just to keep it cool enough. That's a bit extreme true, but adding a fan to the front of your computer case is a cheap investment versus replacing over heated hardware, and the trouble shooting time you'll have to deal with. > to load a system on it later without bad144: I have a feeling that > bad144 is probably never needed on modern SCSI or IDE disks. If any hard drive that is less then three years old shows bad sectors these days, it's a bad drive. It's either overheated, the platters are losing their magnatism, or the hard drive motor is not keeping it's RPM's consistent. The only time I'd accept bad sectors on a hard drive is on MFM or RLL drives, not IDE, and never under any circumstances, SCSI.

Actually, it's more like Partition Magic incorrectly reported the geometry, while FreeBSD correclty reported it. Hard Drives over 8 gigs actually violate the EIDE standards so manufactures have been putting BIOS chips on the drives to fool the computer into using the extra space by misreporting the actual geometry of the drive. I belive that FreeBSD (correctly) actually goes out and looks at the physical size of the drive. > I am wondering if anybody has gotten FreeBSD to see the whole > drive and properly install FreeBSD onto the system. I belive that 2.2.7 or 3.0 see drives over 8 gigs as they had to rewrite the driver and dumb it down to be able to see these drives. Now... if you had a 16 gig SCSI drive....

I've been running FreeBSD 2.2.6 with XFree86 on my Pentium at home for a few months with no problems. I recently decided to load FreeBSD on a really bizarre machine I've got sitting around - a pseudo-laptop machine using a 486 on a PC-104 SBC. The SBC uses a Chips & Technologies 65545 LCD driver connected to a passive color LCD. Under WinBloze the display will run at 800x600 with 256 colors. I am running XFree86 setup from the menu under /stand/sysinstall. When I run "graphical setup" X does come up without a hitch, and look pretty decent. If I then go through the selection processes and select a C&T 65545 and select what I believe to be reasonable horizontal and vertical frequencies, I can't run startx afterwards (startx deletes all the ModeLines as being unreasonable). If I get into the config utility and don't modify anything, just select "Done" foloowed by "Okay" X comes up ok, asking me if I want to run xvidtune, save the config, or bail out. I select "Save config", then run startx again. Once more X refuses to start, after deleting all the modelines and bitching about not being able to find a modeline to match my default (640x480). Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this POS StarScreen to run XFree86? I'm about at the end of my rope here!

What I did do was keep booting kernel.save (which I copied from kernel.old as soon as I started having the problem; this tip brought to you by The Complete FreeBSD [get your copy now]). From there, I kept editing my kernerl and removing devices which weren't being used. Then recompiling. It kept finding stuff not in use (i.e. not found), so I kept removing them. Eventually, the kernal booted. cheers. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 15 21:26:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA28619 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 21:26:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from admin.itol.com (admin.itol.com [207.67.48.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA28613 for ; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 21:25:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from linuxguy@itol.com) Received: from ns3 (gb-ent-36.itol.com [207.67.48.153]) by admin.itol.com (8.9.0/8.8.5) with SMTP id XAA04144 for ; Sat, 15 Aug 1998 23:25:22 -0500 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980815231746.007a32b0@itol.com> X-Sender: jdavies@itol.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sat, 15 Aug 1998 23:17:46 -0500 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Jason Davies Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG TO who get's this..
