Don't make it more complex than necessary. We use some Siemens servers with FreeBSD. Works very well!

Another question if I may: I want to customize my Mutt 1.0i, to NOT show X-Mailer (I want to customize it using my own X-Mailer header). Unfortunately, there's no runtime configuration to achieve this (in the developer version of Mutt, there's a runtime configuration to eliminate the User-Agent, the new way to call X-Mailer, header). One easy way to achieve this back in the era when I was using the stable version of Mutt was to do this: # CFLAGS="-DNO_XMAILER" ./configure --with-slang Now, how can I achieve this if I want to compile from the ports? # cd /usr/ports/mail/mutt # make USE_SLANG=YES Where and when should I pass the CFLAGS="-DNO_XMAILER"?

I take it you mean Internet Service Provider? As the name implies, they provide a service and don't care much what you use at your end provided it uses the standard protocols, POP3, IMAP, etc. However, since you have a functional setup and, presumably, don't want to break it, can I suggest you either partition your hard disk with Windows on the first slice and room for FreeBSD on the second or beg, borrow or buy a second hard disk for FreeBSD. That way you can experiment with FreeBSD and go back to Windows when you a) get tired or b) need to contact the outside world. In the meantime you can experiment with setting up the appropriate packages on your FreeBSD setup. The first one you might need is some kind of X windows system to bring you relief from the somewhat brutal (for someone brought up on DOS) command line interface, followed by packages for surfing, mailing and all the other good things you do with your ISP.

All I have to define in my kernel config was this: device pcm0 Then I do this after reboot: # cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV snd1 That's it... I don't know whether AWE64 stands on PCI slot or not... If it does, then maybe you can try my config. If it stands on ISA slot, drop controller pnp0 and add only this line: device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0 After reboot: # cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV snd0 Hope that helps...

Not all programs in the ports will honour a CFLAGS option on the command-line. IIRC it is usually those that use ``configure'' to create the Makefile(s).

My kernal is a generic one and I am using an Intel Pro10/100B Ethernet card. The card is detected as fxp0. So, I went to the /stand/sysinstall and put all the information in. Then reboot the machine and login in again as root. I try to ping athome's gateway machine. I can't.... I issue the following command: ifconfig fxp0 my_machine_assigned_ip ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 route add -net my_machine_assigned_ip athome_gateway_ip I was able to ping athome's gateway machine and their DNS server. I tried to ping a machine outside athome domain. I can get the machine's IP address right. But no package was acknowledged. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Or have simular experience to share? Do I need rebuild the kernal? (I was hoping to test everything out before build my own kernal). Did I miss any thing?

When I installed the Netgear 10/100 NIC in my Windows box, I set my NIC to strictly 100base/full-duplex. Bah!! I've got the same model NIC in both machines, but the BSD box is running 10base/half-duplex. It never caused a problem when I was running Win2k advanced server beta, but when that expired I reloaded Win98... Thanks a lot, Tom, and the other folks that gave me feedback. Geez... -W.P.

You don't say which version of postfix you are using, but the easiest way is probably to do the following: add a map /usr/local/etc/postfix/access and add the following lines 192.168 OK 192.169 OK Then generate the map database with postmap /usr/local/etc/postfix/access Then add to main.cf's smtpd_recipient_restrictions check_client_access dbm:/etc/postfix/access See man access(5) conf/uce.html sample_smtpd.cf main.cf (I think freebsd uses the dbm map type not the hash type) If you need more help ask on postfix-users@cloud9.net (a majordomo mailing list) Regards, Simon -- Simon J Mudd, Madrid SPAIN Tel: +34-91-408 4878 email: sjmudd@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 9 7: 7:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mobil.surnet.ru (mobil.surnet.ru [195.54.2.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BCB83152FD for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 07:07:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ilia@cgilh.chel.su) Received: (from uucgilh@localhost) by mobil.surnet.ru (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with UUCP id TAA12180 for questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 19:55:16 +0500 (ES) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by cgilh.chel.su (8.8.7/8.8.7) with UUCP id TAA00534 for questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 19:07:40 +0500 Received: from localhost (ilia@localhost) by jane.cgu.chel.su (8.9.3/8.9.2) with ESMTP id SAA00560 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 18:53:52 +0500 (ES) (envelope-from ilia@cgilh.chel.su) X-Authentication-Warning: jane.cgu.chel.su: ilia owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2000 18:53:49 +0500 (ES) From: Ilia Chipitsine X-Sender: ilia@jane.cgu.chel.su To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: new packaging system Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=koi8-r Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8BIT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- from time to time I hear that new packaging system (based on debian) is coming to replace existing one. is this true (anybody is working on it) ? is so, what kind of support do you need ?

I can't make any ports now. man cvsup, you will see a link to the CVSup web page, from there you will get a link to the FAQ. Read it, you will find the answer: Assuming you want the most recent version of the sources, you simply need to add "tag=." to your supfile. > Since my last ports update when I run cvsup I get this error message: > > Cannot get IP address of my own host -- is its hostname correct? > > I don't have a static IP address, I use a dialup account. I have a dialup account, but have a static IP, perhaps you could find an ISP which allows this. Anyway, this question doesn't seem to be in the FAQ. I suggest you add your hostname (whatever you set it to in rc.conf, you must have used something) to the "127.0.0.1" line in /etc/hosts, e.g. 127.0.0.1 localhost freebsd.lan or whatever name you chose. > Where does the program go to look for my IP address? It *probably* calls gethostbyname() on the string returned by gethostname(), going from the error message, but I couldn't be sure of this. If it does, it will look in /etc/hosts and the DNS, the order being defined by /etc/host.conf (you probably want "hosts" before "bind" in that file). > Does it even need it? Hmm... I don't know. If it does, I don't know why it can't call getsockname() after connecting to the cvsup server, myself. I'm sure there's a reason. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 9 8:47:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web1906.mail.yahoo.com (web1906.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.23.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D50A815318 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 08:47:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from manhtho@yahoo.com) Received: (qmail 4145 invoked by uid 60001); 9 Jan 2000 16:47:40 -0000 Message-ID: <20000109164740.4144.qmail@web1906.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [202.167.121.197] by web1906.mail.yahoo.com; Sun, 09 Jan 2000 08:47:40 PST Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2000 08:47:40 -0800 (PST) From: Nguyen Manh Tho Subject: How can recognize the system and user account if you do not the system administrator ?

I need all your help and greatly appreciate them. From Mr. Gianmarco Giovannelli's answer in last recent day, I know that I have to do the following step: 1. Import the Linux passwd file to Free BSD format. I can not find the script that help me does this work (the awk script as Mr Dan Nelson's answer). If you have this script, please send it to me. Will I copy the Linux passwd file to Free BSD directory and run this script on this passwd to convert them to Free BSD format? 2. Copy all the users in the passwin from Turbo Linux to Free BSD and leave unchanged the system users in the Free BSD. I do not know how to recognize the normal users and the system ones. Do system users have the userid below 100 or 1000 ? Is there anything sign to recognize between them ? I also do not know if I will copy all the user on Linux passwd file to the Free BSD passwd file or not? 3. Copy all the group in /etc/group from Turbo Linux to Free BSD (but add only the users groups not the system ones) I am not the Sys Admin of this Linux Server and also very new with the Free BSD server so I do not know which group belong to users and which group is system group ? Is there anything sign to recognize between them ? 4. Copy all the aliases in /etc/aliases from Turbo Linux to Free BSD (add only the aliases pertinent to the users) I aslo do not know how to recognize the user aliases. 5. Copy all old mail from Linux to Free BSD. I can do this step. 6. Change the owner (user:group) to the files. #!/usr/bin/perl foreach $file (<*>) { ($uid)=(getpwnam($file))[2]; ($grp)=(getpwnam($file))[3]; chown($uid,$grp,$file); }; As I understand from this script, it will get the user_id and group of the mail file from the system to the vaiables $uid and $grp and after that assign them to this file by the procedure chown($uid,$grp,$file). Why I have to change user:group to the files that also have available in the Free BSD system???? Each user has one mail file, will all files contain on the directory that can be accessed by the root ? If not, how can I change the suitable owner for all the mail files ? The last question here is could I do all the above steps by the Perl script ? If you have, please send me the sample one as referrence. Please answer step by step, command by command if you could. I am sorry because I am very new and not experience on the Unix system (My field is database and information system) but I have to do this work for my University. It's very urgent, so if my silly question trouble you, please forgive me. Please answering me both 2 address bellow: nmtho@dit.hcmut.edu.vn manhtho@yahoo.com (I still can not send to the list from my University mail address although can get all mail from this list) Thank you very much for all relplies,I am looking forward to them.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm building a machine to do NAT for our small corporate network and I'd like this machine to run Squid as well. Is this possible? Because this machine is running NAT I'm pretty sure that it will NAT and forward all packets by default - Squid wants to run on the inside interface only. With NAT can I specify that packets bound for 3128 from the inside network go only to Squid and are not to be NAT'ed? We're using IPNAT/IPF and FreeBSD 3.3 (Although the machine is still in it's early stages and could easily be converted to 3.4 if that would be helpful) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 9 9:58:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tdnet.com.br (guepardo.tdnet.com.br [200.236.148.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3865F15156 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 09:58:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grios@ddsecurity.com.br) Received: from ddsecurity.com.br [200.236.148.136] by tdnet.com.br with ESMTP (SMTPD32-5.05) id AE8F31201DE; Sun, 09 Jan 2000 15:08:15 -0300 Message-ID: <3878CC53.97B75EA7@ddsecurity.com.br> Date: Sun, 09 Jan 2000 15:58:43 -0200 From: Gustavo V G C Rios X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Otter Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: se0 References: <200001090221.DAA76352@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de> <3877DA15.60977ADC@bellsouth.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Otter wrote: > > Oliver Fromme wrote: > > > Gustavo V G C Rios wrote in list.freebsd-questions: > > > [3.4-stable, boot -c] > > > In the miscellaneous division i am seeing a lentry, contaning this: > > > > > > se0 unknown device. > > > > > > May you explain me what it means ? > > mse0: Logitech and ATI InPort bus mouse ports > is it possible this is a typo in your kernel config? what area is it in? what > other devices is it grouped with? > -Otter it appears in miscellaneous area!

Yep, that would be nice if more things in FreeBSD were more modular, especially when you are toying with drivers or hardware, but IMHO once I am set on what configurations I want to run, I'd rather have one kernel with everything I need(want) and have the option to disable module loading completely for security reasons. Also I wouldnt want to be stuck without network access if my network card module got damaged, etc. Also, if you are going to have particular modules loaded all the time like network card, sound, etc, why bother having them seperate?

You need to explicitly give ifconfig your netmask, which is probably 255.255.255.0, or else it will assume the netmask is 255.0.0.0. This is because 24.x.x.x is an "historic class A" net. The command would be, # ifconfig fxp0 netmask 255.255.255.0 And add the following to /etc/rc.conf, ifconfig_fxp0="inet netmask 255.255.255.0" > ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 > route add -net my_machine_assigned_ip > athome_gateway_ip Problem 2: I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. You want to route all traffic on your local net to the router? But it's local traffic which means your _don't_ need a router. Is this what you mean, # route add default That tells your computer where to send all traffic that is _not_ local. Add the following to /etc/rc.conf, defaultrouter="" > I was able to ping athome's gateway machine and their > DNS server. I tried to ping a machine outside athome > domain.

My guess is you have since build a lean customized kernel, which does not contain devices anymore you don't have. So you can now use a mostly empty kernel.conf.

If I do a make buildworld on one, its possible to use the build binaries on the other over NFS right? Yep. Just make sure the machines are configured identically or as similar as possible. Mainly, you should have the same options in /etc/make.conf. > I've never used NFS before, is there someone(or someplace) that could step me through this? It's pretty easy. First, buildworld on the "server" machine. # cd /usr/src # make buildworld Now, the server needs to be made ready to export the filesystem to the other machine. I assume your are using the default /usr/src and /usr/obj for the buildworld and both are on a single /usr filesystem. In that case, add the following to /etc/exports, /usr/src /usr/obj -maproot=0:0 Where is hostname or IP address of the machine you will be installing on. Once this is done, start the NFS servers and mountd, # mountd # nfsd -n 4 # rpc.statd Oh, and you need to have portmap(8) running for this all to work too. Anyway, once the buildworld is done and you have started the NFS servers, log onto your client, and # mount :/usr/src /usr/src # mount :/usr/obj /usr/obj And then just, # cd /usr/src # make installworld And you should be in business. Note that if you really wanted to, you can do all of the NFS mounting first and actually do a 'make world' on the client machine so that it does all of the building. -- Crist J.

Have registered product............ > doug - alexr@linux.ca This is usually due to a misconfiguration of the devices on the secondary IDE controller. Make sure that if the CDROM is alone on the second controller that it is configured to be the master. Some other OSes will let you get away with not having the devices configured properly, but it does violate the standard and FreeBSD will not put up with it. There have also been problems with IDE CDROMs still not working correctly when they apparently are properly confiured. This problem is specific to a few models. If your CDROM appears to be configured properly, search the FreeBSD-questions mail archive at, http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html If you can't find the answers you need, write back to freebsd-questions with more detailed information about your setup (CDROM manufacturer and model being the most important for you). -- Crist J.

I recently got onboard the BSD ship and now am in need of a new SCSI controller. The cards I'm interested in are two models from Tekram: DC-390U2W (Symbios 53c894 & 53c141) and DC-390F (Symbios 53c875). The handbook says that the latter (390F) is supported but doesn't say anything on the U2W model. I'd really really like the 390u2w but will reconsider if support for it isn't in the cards. So, what would my future look like with the u2w?

Since there are only two machines, I use a crossover cable instead of a hub or switch. In a recent fit of upgrading, I replaced the 10-baseT (PCI) cards in each machine with a pair of 100-baseTX RealTek-8139 cards. I was pleased that everything just seemed to work, but I've just tried to test the performance, and to say that it's short of stellar is an understatement. I have a 16M file in my home directory (FreeBSD), and two successive command-line FTP fetches on the NT box resulted in transfer rates of 70.02k and 99k. Yes, "k". I tried using the "copy /b" command, and gave up timing after five minutes. Where can I look to try to debug what is obviously a problem? Here's a bit of representative output from a netstat -I rl0 -b -w 5 command, while the copy/b was in progress: input (rl0) output packets errs bytes packets errs bytes colls 42 0 2636 81 0 118620 0 41 0 2692 71 0 100806 0 37 0 2336 72 0 104994 0 30 0 1916 57 0 80944 0 32 0 2152 57 0 80950 0 58 0 3712 97 0 141510 0 40 0 2516 72 0 104994 0 35 0 2216 64 0 92882 0 Here's the output of ifconfig rl0: rl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 10.255.255.255 ether 00:48:54:50:52:83 media: 100baseTX supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP Hmm That's interesting.

I can recommend the ASUS P2B-LS. It already has FastEthernet (intel EtherExpress Pro/100) and U2W-SCSI (Adaptec) onboard. Works very well and reliably. You probably don't need an ultra fast CPU. Pentium-II/III with 450 or 500 MHz should be enough. Be sure to get enough RAM. As for the disks, IBM U2W drives are nice. Seagates work fine, too. You should also think about an approptiate backup solution. DLT, MLR, VXA, there are some possibilities to choose from, unfortunately not exactly cheap, but you get what you pay for. Avoid DDS.

Thanks! I've used it and haven't seen it do any harm to the systems I was using it on, although I can't speak for how well it might have helped them survive a SYN flood.

FreeBSD itself will run, although the fact that you have only 8 Mbyte of RAM will slow it down. I'd recommend that you upgrade the memory. The X Window system will definitely be _no_ fun with 8 Mbytes only.

Making more space available is probably a good idea. Whether downloading a new version of FreeBSD is worth it, I don't know. It depends on the version which you already have (you forgot to mention it).

The 390U2W is supported by the NCR driver in -stable and -current, and also by the SYM driver in -current. ( I think that the SYM driver will work with stable, but I don't have any in -stable boxes.) The card works well, but is fussier about some bus issues than I would like.

It would be a lot easier for someone that knows what you need to help you if you were more descriptive about what a "vlan" really is. Something along the lines of "I have this machine that I want to install as the gateway of a local ethernet. This machine is also connected to the outside world with a PPP link. How do I set my machines up so that the machines on the ethernet can connect to the Internet through the 'gateway'?" Try to be more verbose in your questions to receive more helpful answers.

I keep a file called releng_3.sup in my root account directory that contains: # cat /root/releng_3.sup *default host=cvsup.de.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_3 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all src-crypto and I use cvsup on it, with a command like: # cvsup -g -L 2 ~/releng_3.sup to upgrade the sources every now and then. Once your /usr/src tree is updated [which takes about 10-15 minutes with my 28.8 Kbit/s modem], you can kill that PPP link, and use the sources fetched to upgrade the base-system. The commands I usually find handy are: # cd /usr/src # make world Note however, that you might prefer to boot the updated kernel before making the world. The whole procedure of building a custom kernel is described in the handbook, but if you have a config file ready, say one called MYKERNEL, you can almost always get away with: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ # config MYKERNEL # cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL # make depend # make # make install # reboot For more details on these two procedures, look at the handbook, at the following sections: Configuring the FreeBSD Kernel URL = http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html Synchronizing Source Trees over the Internet URL = http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html Using make world to rebuild your system URL = http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/makeworld.html Obtaining FreeBSD : CVSup Sites URL = http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors-cvsup.html Hope that helps. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Let me quote from the FreeBSD Handbook: 18.1.2. Who needs FreeBSD-current? FreeBSD-current is made generally available for 3 primary interest groups: 1. Members of the FreeBSD group who are actively working on some part of the source tree and for whom keeping ``current'' is an absolute requirement. 2. Members of the FreeBSD group who are active testers, willing to spend time working through problems in order to ensure that FreeBSD-current remains as sane as possible. These are also people who wish to make topical suggestions on changes and the general direction of FreeBSD. 3. Peripheral members of the FreeBSD (or some other) group who merely wish to keep an eye on things and use the current sources for reference purposes (e.g. for reading, not running). These people also make the occasional comment or contribute code. If you still want to install -current, you should read that entire chapter of the Handbook.

Browser clients would report "connection reset by browser" when the browser attempted to upload a file over about one megabyte. tcpdump shows the FreeBSD/apache host sending a FIN packet (then a couple of RESEST) to the browsers TCP connection before the file upload is done. The problem seems not to be caused by . RFC 1323 extensions . RFC 1646 extensions It apparently *is* caused by a duplexity mismatch between the FreeBSD box and the adjacent (FreeBSD) router via a cross over cable. ifconfig fxp1 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex removes all signs of the problem So, if anyone asks what causes read() on a socket to fail, you won't get fooled (like me). I suppose netstat -i fxp1 -w 1 when the problem was happening might have helped.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi folx What are the most common causes of a FreeBSD machine to crash? (When I say "crash", I mean reboot for no apparent reason). Can anyone suggest how I might track down what is causing my server to crash? I now have a feeling it might be hardware related, but this could be nonsense. It could be some of the software I'm running on it I suppose. I was doing a `rm -R /usr/ports` (as I had stuffed it up) and it just crashed and rebooted itself. This is obviously a fairly intensive IO task, but it shouldn't cause the machine to crash. Also running at the time were Apache 1.3.9, Big Brother 1.3a, Bind 8, sshd, and others. The machine is a Digital Venturis 575 - 75MHz pentium with 72Mb Ram, 256Mb Swap partition. Until recently it had Red Hat LInux 5.1 on it, which crashed quite regularly too, but people tell me this was a very buggy version of linux so I wasn't to suprised. However, I am very suprised that in the first month of FreeBSD 3.3 Release being on the box it has crashed twice. How can I go about tracking down the problem? I mean I can try doing different things, but some advice on what people feel may be the problem would be very helpful. - am I expecting too much from the box, or does it sound like a hardware fault, or should I simply upgrade to a new -stable? What do people thing? cheers jesse -- Jesse Reynolds - Virtual Artists Pty Ltd - http://www.va.com.au Faxmail: +61 2 9776 3594 Virtual Community Engine Email: jesse (at) va.com.au http://www.vce.net ?: http://jesse.va.com.au huh?: Community Server for ICQ: 4766684 MacOS Servers (W*API) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 9 19:16:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from abby.skypoint.net (abby.skypoint.net [199.86.32.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7A0C414BE7 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 19:16:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rpj@fep.hirshfields.com) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by abby.skypoint.net (8.8.7/jl 1.3) with UUCP id VAA12081 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 21:15:48 -0600 (CST) Received: (from rpj@localhost) by fep.hirshfields.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA28513 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 20:25:57 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from rpj) From: "Roger P.

I am unable to get to the sysinstall program to install FreeBSD when booting for either fresh install or upgrade. I don't get that far. Here's how I made my boot floppies from CD-ROM for both releases: dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/rsd0 dd if=mfsroot.flp of=/dev/rsd0 Trying the 3.3 Release floppies to boot, here is what I get for messages: [insert 3.3. kern.flp boot floppy and power cycle the PC] kernel text= zf_read: fill error elf_loadexec: archsw.readin failed can't load module '/kernel': input/output error Hit [Enter] to blah blah ...

Q: What is the zf_read error I get on both releases? Q: Is this normal for all users? Q: Is is serious or can I disreguard this message? Q: I am using the correct boot floppies in the correct order right? Q: I'm dumb founded at this point. Now what? I've read through all the .txt files on the CD-ROM. I may have misssed something. I've searched freebsd.og for zf_read error and found nothing. This is my first entry into the 3.X releases. Everything I have is in the 2.X, thus I have done about 75-100 installs of 2.X no problems ever, but I'm stuck here. Help! Here is my hardware setup: DEC 333i: 333MHz Pentium II, 64 MB RAM Adaptec 2940UW, 1st SCSI HD has NTWS 4.0 2nd SCSI HD has FreeBSD 2.2.7R Seagate SCSI DAT tape drive Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100B Matrox Millenium II graphics card 1.44MB Floppy drive IDE CD-ROM. PS/2 Mouse, The onboard SCSI and onboard ethernet is diabled in the BIOS (both unsupported versions in the 2.X branch) thus the Adaptec and NIC. What gives?

I just tried building Samba and no hitches in the patching steps. When you say "recent install," do you mean recently installed from CD (in which case it really is not a very recent version of the ports) or recently by ftp or other method where you are getting an up-to-date version?

You tell us the machine has crashed with fBSD, and ask "why?". You then tell us that under L-RH5 it also 'crashed quite regularly', and then again with fBSD3.3 'it has crashed twice'. If it were me, I would be checking that there isn't a hardware fault before chasing software "faults". My first suspect would be memory. Can I suggest you power down the machine, remove all boards (including memory SIMMs), give the contacts a clean, and reinsert everything? Then see what happens. Another possible cause of errors; have you played with the jumpers for the CPU speed - i.e. are you trying to overclock the beast, or have you put a new (different) CPU in it, or perhaps the core voltage is set incorrectly? Just some ideas to toss around and think about. But, as I said, I'd be thinking "hardware fault" at this stage. hth, haxxa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 9 19:52:14 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tandem.milestonerdl.com (tandem.milestonerdl.com [204.107.138.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0D26514F47 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 19:52:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marc@tandem.milestonerdl.com) Received: from localhost (marc@localhost) by tandem.milestonerdl.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id XAA67734 for ; Sun, 9 Jan 2000 23:13:10 -0600 (CST) Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2000 23:13:10 -0600 (CST) From: marc rassbach To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: 2 port ethernet NAT question 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 am having trouble making this network NAT config to work.

Right, I will try cleaning all the contacts etc when I'm in the same city as the machine :-), in the mean time I'll move all the services onto something else. I haven't overclocked anything or played with jumpers at all, no. It is the original intel 75mhz processor still in it. >Just some ideas to toss around and think about.

As far as I know, we don't support Vines. If we do in the future, it will be because somebody like you finds it important enough to either write the necessary code or fund its writing.

The character you enter for '‘' is not in the character set you specify (charset="iso-8859-1"); in fact, it's a control character. This is almost certainly a bug in your mailer.

It's set in /etc/sendmail.cf, as somebody else observed. But it's set for a good reason, and large mail messages cause serious resource problems for most systems, so you shouldn't send them.

Hi, I have both the Walnut Creek CD-ROM FreeBSD 3.3 and FreeBSD 3.4 Release. I am unable to get to the sysinstall program to install FreeBSD when booting for either fresh install or upgrade. I don't get that far. Here's how I made my boot floppies from CD-ROM for both releases: dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/rsd0 dd if=mfsroot.flp of=/dev/rsd0 Trying the 3.3 Release floppies to boot, here is what I get for messages: [insert 3.3. kern.flp boot floppy and power cycle the PC] kernel text= zf_read: fill error elf_loadexec: archsw.readin failed can't load module '/kernel': input/output error Hit [Enter] to blah blah ... End of story for 3.3 ... Trying the 3.4 Relase floppies to boot, here is what I get for messages: [insert 3.4. kern.flp boot floppy and power cycle the PC] kernel text= data= sysm= Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: [switch floppies and enter] zf_read: fill error Hit [Enter] to ... probes hardware as usual, shows devices/drivers etc waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle changing root device to fd0c root device 2880 blah ... exec /stand/sysinstall: error 8 init: not found panic: no init End of story for 3.4 ... Q: What is the zf_read error I get on both releases? Q: Is this normal for all users? Q: Is is serious or can I disreguard this message? Q: I am using the correct boot floppies in the correct order right? Q: I'm dumb founded at this point. Now what? I've read through all the .txt files on the CD-ROM. I may have misssed something. I've searched freebsd.og for zf_read error and found nothing. This is my first entry into the 3.X releases. Everything I have is in the 2.X, thus I have done about 75-100 installs of 2.X no problems ever, but I'm stuck here. Help! Here is my hardware setup: DEC 333i: 333MHz Pentium II, 64 MB RAM Adaptec 2940UW, 1st SCSI HD has NTWS 4.0 2nd SCSI HD has FreeBSD 2.2.7R Seagate SCSI DAT tape drive Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100B Matrox Millenium II graphics card 1.44MB Floppy drive IDE CD-ROM.

There is no guarantee that it is going to work on any given day. There are all sorts of things that get broken on a regular basis. There is no support for it. If you can't figure out how to install it (and there is enough in the handbook to go on) you have no business running it.

There two issues with voltage requirements: 1) A PCI bus can have a 3.3 V or a 5.0 V signalling environment. The card must support the signalling environment used by the bus. 2) A PCI bus can provide 3.3 V power, or 5.0 V power, or both. A PCI card may be able to run off either voltage, or it may require a specific voltage. The ultimate high end PCI card will support 64 bits, 64 MHz, either 3.3 V or 5.0 V signalling, and work with either 3.3 V or 5.0 V power. It can be plugged into any PCI slot and will make the best possible use of the slot. I believe the network and SCSI cards you are looking at fit this description. 64 bits at 66 MHz provides the highest bandwidth, but you may have enough bandwidth even if you can only operate the card at 32 bits 66 MHz. I believe Intel has motherboards that support 66 MHz, but it does not make any motherboards that support 64 bits. They use a bridge chip that converts the AGP port into a 66 MHz PCI bus. Intel makes one chipset that supports 64 bits, called the 450NX, and you may find third party Pentium motherboards that use this chipset. Micron also makes their own chipset. I don't remember its capabilities, but check out their web site. No one else (VIA, SIS, etc.), as far as I know, makes a PC chipset that supports either 64 bits or 66 MHz. However, Compaq/Digital supports 64 bits/66 MHz in their Alpha servers. Finally, if you can afford to wait, Intel's new chipset, the 840, is very flexible and you may soon see it in motherboards that support both 64 bits and 66 MHz.

This is because each of those Windows clients sends encrypted passwords, and Samba needs to be configured to expect and decrypt them. We'll show you how to set up Samba for this task later in the chapter, assuming you haven't already tackled this problem in Chapter 2, Installing Samba on a Unix System. Let's start with a single user. The easiest way to set up a client user is to create a Unix account (and home directory) for that individual on the server, and notify Samba of the user's existence. You can do the latter by creating a disk share that maps to the user's home directory in the Samba configuration file, and restricting access to that user with the valid users option. For example: [dave] path = /home/dave comment = Dave's home directory writeable = yes valid users = dave The valid users option lists the users that will be allowed to access the share. In this case, only the user dave is allowed to access the share. In the previous chapters, we specified that any user could access a disk share using the guest ok parameter. Because we don't wish to allow guest access, that option is absent here. We could grant both authenticated users and guest users access to a specific share if we wanted to. The difference between the two typically involves access rights for each of the files. Remember that you can abbreviate the user's home directory by using the %H variable. In addition, you can use the Unix username variable %u and/or the client username variable %U in your options as well. For example : [dave] comment = %U home directory writeable = yes valid users = dave path = %H Both of these examples work as long as the Unix user that Samba uses to represent the client has read/write access to the directory referenced by the path option. In other words, a client must first pass Samba's security mechanisms (e.g., encrypted passwords, the valid users option, etc.) as well as the normal Unix file and directory permissions of its Unix-side user before it can gain read/write access to a share.

The way I interpret the docs for the ESS cards, it looks as though it emulates an SB16, but has more to it. As quoted from the document you referenced: "ESS builds cards that implement a superset of SB16. They are often capable of full duplex, but my driver does not support them other than in full duplex emulation." Actually, the kernel config line you have above works for both my ISA AWE64 (value) as well as my SB16 (value), with the exception of the "flags" at the end. I have mine set to 0x15. -Otter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 10 2:35:26 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lk.tempest.sk (lk.tempest.sk [195.28.100.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9575F14BD4 for ; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 02:35:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from lk@tempest.sk) Received: (from koren@localhost) by lk.tempest.sk (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA73436; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 11:34:21 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from koren) Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 11:34:21 +0100 (CET) Message-Id: <200001101034.LAA73436@lk.tempest.sk> From: Ludo Koren To: grog@lemis.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <20000109113511.C402@mojave.worldwide.lemis.com> (message from Greg Lehey on Sun, 9 Jan 2000 11:35:11 +0800) Subject: Re: Vinum + RAID-5=large file server Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >> We would like to build a large file server with cca 250 GB of >> disk space. > Strange, I thought I answered this message, but I don't see any > 'r' flag.

Please forgive my vagues answer (as I'm not currently running Samba) but whenever I've set it up in the past I have just used a single section in the configuration file for user's home directories as mentioned in the example smb.conf file provided with Samba.

If you mean you type and see the following: # adduser adduser: Command not found # /usr/sbin/adduser /usr/sbin/adduser: Command not found this is because perl is not installed in /usr/bin. Perl is part of the base system and should be there if you installed from CD. It sounds like something is broken. gjvc -- [gjvc] 4.4BSD 4.ever!

You could try to reformat them, or even better, use new ones. When you use FreeBSD to create the floppies, use this command instead of dd: fdwrite < kern.flp fdwrite < mfsroot.flp It will format, write and verify the floppies at the same time, thus avoiding the problem of badly preformatted floppies.

Not without installing hacked versions of the software which prompts for passwords, no. > What is backdoor login and how does one do it? A backdoor login can be either of: 1) A well-known username and password combination that is active by default in a new installation. 2) A hacked up version of some program which provides shell login for a particular username or usernames, usually unknown to the administrator. Neither of these two exists in FreeBSD in a new installation. > How do one crack this passwords? You can use a brute-force dictionary attack. See the security category of the ports tree at: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/security.html Keep in mind that the only legitimate use of such programs is for identifying lame passwords and reporting to the users who have chosen them.

I've seen something close to what you want done in inetd (see the handling of signalpipe). You'd want to read and write something other than a char, obviously, but I don't see that being too much of a problem. Ciao, Sheldon.

What do you recommend? Make the kerl.flp and the msfroot.flp disks. That is, only if you don't know how to mount the CD or use DD (to make floppies).

These old fingers just aren't as co-ordinated as | they used to be ;) Thanx for the help... Now... report time... After doing some debugging, it turned out that there was nothing wrong with my /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup. Permission of 600 root.wheel perfectly OK, even if I run ppp as user john. I changed the /usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp to /sbin/ping bla.bla.bla... It worked! Now, what happened here is: on normal condition, I must be root to issue maildirsmtp. So, I guess... when I run ppp as user john, ppp have tried to execute maildirsmtp, but maildirsmtp refused to run... Hmmm... this is getting weird though, cause, even with permission 600 for /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup (root.wheel), ping is running automatically even if I run ppp as user john! I'm confused here as I don't fully understand the mechanism of who execute what and what is the power of the program executed afterwards... So if all of you ladies and gentlemen might still care to help me, please lighten me up... ;) Review of problem: I don't want to execute ppp as root. Logging as usual user then invoking su -m just to run ppp and exit, then when I have to shut ppp up, I must su -m again, kill ppp then release the root power one more time... I find this... not practical ;) So, in my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf entry, I add allow user john, and of course user john has already been added to the network group [john@mona john]$ id uid=1001(john) gid=1001(john) groups=1001(john), 0(wheel), 69(network) [john@mona john]$ ls -l /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup - -rw------- 1 root wheel 87 Jan 9 22:18 /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup [john@mona john]$ cat /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup cbn: !bg /usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp blah... blah... blah...

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 well, i somehow just managed to take down the machine by ftp'ing... not a very positive thing :( i had my ipf and ipnat rules set up to the point where i thought they were working. the ports seemed comfortably blocked, the tcp_wrappers issue was overcome. i had one machine hooked up to the lan side of it to test nat. web browsing was fine, telnet, ssh... then i tried to ftp. i logged into the ftp server fine, then when i typed 'ls' the freebsd box dropped off the face of the network. dead to both internal and external interfaces! ouch... so looking at the ipfilter list archives, it seems that i should 1: update to ipfilter 3.3.6 2: add a transparent proxy rule to ipnat for the router box ( map 0/32 -> 0/32 proxy port 21 ftp/tcp ) now, since i'm cut off from this machine for a few hours now, i really can't do much, so i'd like to try to make sure i know what i need to do to get this working right... i want active ftp to work for both the lan, and for the router box itself... and for external clients to be able to ftp to the server in active mode. could someone point me toward the ipf rules that will allow this? i'm thinking i'll need something like: ipf: pass in on xl0 from any to any port = 20 pass in on xl0 from any to any port = 21 pass out on xl0 from any to any ipnat: map xl0 192.168.2.0/24 -> 0/32 map xl0 192.168.2.0/24 -> 0/32 proxy port 21 ftp/tcp map xl0 0/32 -> 0/32 proxy port 21 ftp/tcp is this the correct way to go? brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 10 7:24:43 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de [139.174.243.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DA87914F73 for ; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 07:24:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) Received: (from olli@localhost) by dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA19135; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 16:24:20 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from olli) Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 16:24:20 +0100 (CET) Message-Id: <200001101524.QAA19135@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de> From: Oliver Fromme To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, "J.

Go to ftp://ftp.mysql.com/pub/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-3.22 and download the last file mysql-3.22.27.tar.gz which is the raw source code. Make a directory call it whatever name you like something like mysql then download the above tar ball in that directory. untar it then cd to mysql-3.22.27 do the usual ./configure make make install then run ./script/mysql_install_db (to start mysql) To verify that mysql is running /usr/local/bin/mysqladmin version (should dispaly the version output) Hopefully that helps. -- Majid Almassari, MSEE, MCP.

I get assigned a dynamic IP every time I connect, so I don't have a static IP I can point to, neither a static host name. Now, I'd like to use CVSup to upgrade my system to -STABLE, and update my ports tree. I got the stable-supfile from the website and added the ports tag, and tried using `cvsup stable-supfile` (I am using X). CVSup complained it can't locate an IP for my hostname. My hostname was set to `asmodean', which is a made up name, because I wan't sure this had any real use for me, since I'm not a server. Anyways, after this complaint I changes my hostname to plain old `localhost'. Tried the command again, and CVSup came up. I tried clicking that play button to begin downloading, and walla, I get a message that I was denied a connection (I tried connection to cvsup3.freebsd.org). Logic tells me this: the CVSup server needs my IP for some reason, since it decides to be real smart and contat my IP instead of using the TCP/IP session already open, so it needs to get my IP, which the CVSup client provides. The CVSup client provides the IP it gets from a reverse domain name lookup, and, since my hostname was set to localhost, resulted in 127.0.0.1, which is the IP for any computer. The CVSup server realizes this, and declines my connection. Now, my questions are: (a) Is this what is really happening? (b) If so, how do I get CVSup to get my IP that was assigned dynamically? (c) If not, what is the remedy to this situation?

Currently it is fluctuating between 95%-97%. Help is appreciated. > Hi Majid The number of mbuf clusters is determined by the formula n = 512 + mu * 16 in param.c (n => number of clusters, mu => maxusers as specified in the kernel config file). In your case 992 users (16384 clusters). I don't if you have set your maxusers to 992 or used the option, only remember that the maxusers number is a metric that sets many things including the number of mbuf clusters. Therefore do not set it very high, if all you need is to beef up a certain area ( such as the network buffer size in your case). Use options NMBCLUSTERS=### in your kernel config file. Also remember that each cluster is 2 kB in size. This makes the size of your current buffer 32 MB. Go up a notch .. maybe 48 MB. Add the line options NMBCLUSTERS=24576 to your kernel config file. make depend && make && make install reboot.

I don't see anything applicable in src/usr.sbin/inetd/inetd.c. signalpipe is just a normal pipe where the child sends character data to the parent. Passing an open file descriptor is necessarily more involved. I mean, I can pass the integer value, but that is meaningless in itself. Stevens describes a somewhat clumsy scheme; the API is rather ugly. Grepping over /usr/src for some key words, I found examples in mount_portal (activate.c) and ppp (bundle.c).

If the recipients found my info helpful, possibly they could repost it. Here is what I said....sort of. The ISO-9660 Disk image is one big (600+mb) file that your CD burning software of choice will "see" as a volume and burn as a proper ISO-9660 filesystem. You will then be able to boot to this CD via CMOS booting options and happily and easily(if you've done your homework) Install your choice of the available FreeBSD's. These are located in the USA at ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/ appropirate mirrors can be obtained at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html#MIRRORS-US for those in the USA OR the top of this page had international morrors http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html the files end in .iso and should be downloaded in binary format (source in netscape) I did it via netscape, but if you have a ftp client I would recomend that. -cfd ===== ____________________________________________________________ charlesdillon@yahoo.com Charles F.

The two nic's are attached to different ISP's (long story) connecting me to the internet. My question is this, if I get a ftp or html request on one of the five addresses attached to the second card, will be FreeBSD box respond from that card or send the information out it's primary card and through the gateway?

I have 2 IDE HDD connected as master&slave to the single cable. I decided to install the O/S on the second one. 1. I created a directory FREEBSD on the 1st HDD (having FAT on it) and copied the whole contents of the CD 1 into it. 2. I created 2 1.44 floppies from the flp-files in the FREEBSD\FLOPPIES dir. 3. I booted the PC from those floppies, started install, made a slice and partitions on the 2nd HDD, pointed install to the FREEBSD directory on the 1st HDD and finally got it installed on the 2nd HDD. Now, my problem is as follows: I chose to install booteasy manager. It got installed on the 2nd HDD. So, it is not invoked on power-on, since the HDD is 2nd. To handle this, I went into BIOS screens and disabled the 1st HDD. After that, BIOS loads the booteasy from the 2nd HDD and the kernel is then loaded. But the kernel sees the 1st HDD as can be seen by boot messages. On some stage of loading the kernel tries to mount root file system from HDD 1 (on which it is NOT installed), fails and panics. It tell about this problem in the panic message, referring to wd0... What could I do wrong? How to tell the kernel to mount it from wd1...? I verified that the installation is Ok by complete disconnecting the 1st HDD. In this case everything goes fine except /etc/fstab which refers to wd1... everywhere whereas this disk now became wd0...

Well, if you can't afford to buy the CD's from Walnut Creek (www.cdrom.com), then you can look around in ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ for the ISO image.

There are a couple of ways. I'm going to assume for this message that your anon ftp root is in /var/ftp. As you have already discovered, soft links to paths outside of your ftp tree won't work. This is due to the fact that ftpd runs logins in a chroot environment. So, when an anonymous user logs in, he/she will have his/her root set to /var/ftp, and can not access files outside of that tree... Even with symlinks. One alternative, where possible, is to use hardlinks. Normally, you can't hard link a directory, nor can you create hard links across filesystems. Nevertheless, you have the option. Another alternative is to change your ftp root to /usr/stuff. This can be done by editing the 'ftp' user's home directory (as root) with chsh ftp, or by editing /etc/master.passwd appropriately, and executing pwd_mkdb to implement the change. You then, of course, lose the contents of /var/ftp for anonymous access :-) Create another ftp user, and add them to /etc/ftpchroot, with a home directory of /usr/stuff, and no write access to files therein. Requires a different login name, but perhaps this is what you want. If /usr/stuff is small, you could always mirror it periodically to /var/ftp/stuff. If /usr/stuff is large enough to warrant it, put it on a dedicated slice and mount it to /var/ftp/stuff Symlinks can work the other way. If you don't chroot anyone with access to /usr/stuff (not /var/ftp), move the contents of /usr/stuff to /var/ftp/stuff, and do ln -s /var/ftp/stuff /usr/stuff. Other ftpds (have a look in the ports tree or packages) allow more sophisticated functionality in terms of access control and more customizable "mount points". If you don't like any of my ideas, try some different daemons. The last symlink option usually makes the most sense...

The upgrade seemed to go well, as I didn't get any errors. As it asked at the end, I rebooted. Now I see the kernel name has changed to 'Amnesiac' and it doesn't like roots passwd.

What you're asking, rephrased somehow is if ipfw can do filtering based on the source / destination IP [ which is usually diferent in each interface of a machine, as you pointed out ]. Well, from man ipfw(8) we can see that ipfw filters based on the source and/or destination IP address, the incoming and/or outgoing interface, etc. If your machine has two interfaces A and B with addresses, say... 127.0.0.1 for interface iface0, and 10.0.0.1 for interface iface1, then the rules below might prove handy to you: allow tcp from any to any in recv iface0 setup allow tcp from any to any established This allows incoming TCP connections only from iface0 but once established, the connection can send/get data to/from any interface. If I misunderstood what you're trying to do, you are always welcome to gracefully ignore me ;) Ciao. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

For instance the fact that Greg's book costs a literally doubled sum here in Greece. But I did find it helpful, some times even fun to read. My intelligence should not be assumed to be de facto higher than anyone else's. Therefore, I will take my chances that you will understand the whole thing next time you read it. Not everyone is a developer that graps CVS concepts easily. Even less people have worked with releases, etc. It is, then, understandable that some things can seem complicated, at first. But you can try reading the supfile I posted, and see how it fits together with what you have read so far. Soon, you'll be writing your own supfiles, usually making use of /usr/share/examples/cvsup/*-supfile as templates.

I was shocked at how soon 4.0 was being worked on, even before 3.1 was released (I think). A major release number just seems like such a major change in the kernel, etc. Anyway, I'm just curious and wondered where I might find more info.

There are two streams in FreeBSD. There's -STABLE which is what most people follow. This is, as its name implies, the one to go for if you want "Rock Stable Performance!" (tm). 4.0 is the -CURRENT stream which is where developers fear to tread. You want the 3.4-STABLE one. Actually, you more than likely installed 3.3-RELEASE, which is just a snapshot of the development of 3.x-STABLE. > I use the machine as a single user desktop machine. Is seting up CTM worth > it?

Your sysctl thing helped wonders :) Thanks a LOT for this! The way we handle the high socket numbers is just a very high maxusers setting in the kernel and on top of that also directly setting the max nmbclusters to a high number (even higher than the calculated one that results from the maxusers) ..... This helped keeping the box from kernel panicing because of mbuf cluster overruns, which I guess your box probably crashes on. Check the netstat -m numbers, that will give you info on max and current mbuf usage. If thats very close, its probably mbuf clusters running out and the kernel panicing on that. The easiest way to get around this is to just increase the maxusers number in the kernel.

Hmm, must be something else, then. Our MAXUSERS is set to 512, and our nmbclusters is set obscenely high, 33280. netstat -m reports seldom get above 20%.

Are the FreeBSD guys changing things *withouth* reason? Difficult to believe. Horresco audiens (was: referens ;-)) It seems that a whole OS has to meet the needs ... of the sound (!) subsystem. This speaks for itself. Dear Mr. Davida, please go out for a walk, have fun, and think it over again, with a fresh mind. One *simplistic* general consideration only: if you do NOT improve your code (bug fixing, code rewriting etc.) and keep a lot of "legacy code" (in order not to break backward-compatibility), you will end up in ... (wait for it) Micro$uxware ;-) Indeed, in M$uxware, sound is probably *that* important ;-) > Regards, > Joe > >From jin@portnoy.lbl.gov Mon Jan 10 15:53:03 2000 > >Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 13:52:51 -0800 (PST) > >From: Jin Guojun (FTG staff) > >To: billf@chc-chimes.com, jd@davida.com > >Subject: Re: Dynamically loadable drivers > >Cc: bugs@FreeBSD.ORG > > > >Bill Fumerola wrote: > > > >} On Mon, 10 Jan 2000, Joseph Davida wrote: > >} > Looks like 4.0 (as of 01/05/2000) is > >} [...] > >} > I was told that the OSS driver still works > >} > with the latest Linux kernel.

Sorry for the stupid question. It isn't a stupid question until you do it the third time :). I used to get the same message and ended up using the same mirror. I was going to reply and got busy in the darkroom and forgot. What I was going to say is that there has to be a mirror that is located closer too you than US mirrors are to .il land. Some of the USA mirrors are hammered pretty much all day long. A shot hop to a quiet cvsup mirror has to be faster.

He can at least hook them to the internal network, give them local (private) addresses and redirect those addresses through natd on a FreeBSD box that works as a gateway host: Public network interface <-> Private network interface a.b.c.1 = Primary public interface address a.b.c.2 <-> x.y.z.2 (*) a.b.c.3 <-> x.y.z.3 (*) a.b.c.4 <-> x.y.z.4 (*) (...)

He may need NAT because he has six addresses (an 29 bit netmasked network piece) but n (with n > 6) network hosts that should be accessable from the public. This is possible. First of all, I recommend you read the man pages for ipfw(4), ipfw(8), divert(4), natd(8), dummynet(4) and build a custom kernel. You need at least the IPFIREWALL/IPDIVERT rules, perhaps for a start the IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_OPEN (sp?) is handy. Configure your FreeBSD machine as a gateway host. What you need is the redirect function of natd. For a start, you can use some minimal firewall setup like ipfw add 100 divert 8668 ip from any to any via xxx ipfw add 200 allow all from any to any (xxx is the public network interface name) and a natd configuration like unregistered_only yes alias_address a.b.c.1 redirect_address x.y.z.2 a.b.c.2 redirect_address x.y.z.3 a.b.c.3 redirect_address x.y.z.4 a.b.c.4 (...) Don't forget to define those alias addresses for the public network interface, like ifconfig xxx alias a.b.c.2 netmask n.m.n.o ifconfig xxx alias a.b.c.3 netmask n.m.n.o ifconfig xxx alias a.b.c.4 netmask n.m.n.o (...) (Of course it is better to put that into /etc/rc.conf) Good luck.

A restricted shell will not prevent them from running another shell (bash, tcsh, ...) or program like emacs and changing the directory. What you want is chroot. You may want to make a script/program that first chroots to the desired directory and then execs a shell (restricted perhaps). -- Mojahed To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 10 22: 0:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hsalouserv1.hsacorp.net (208-247-171-50.hsacorp.net [208.247.171.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D2A621504C for ; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 22:00:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jconner@enterit.com) Received: from default (24-216-177-226.hsacorp.net [24.216.177.226]) by hsalouserv1.hsacorp.net with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2650.21) id CPRQHYC8; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 00:54:13 -0500 Message-Id: <4.2.0.58.20000110005901.00c44770@mail.enterit.com> X-Sender: jconner@mail.enterit.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.2.0.58 Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 01:01:34 -0500 To: m , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Jim Conner Subject: Re: 3 reboot lines In-Reply-To: <20000111051903.3CF7A639C8@zagnut.hotpop.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 00:19 11-01-00 -0500, m wrote: > Hello.

Have a look at man pages for syslog and syslog.conf. In particular, you'll need to edit /etc/syslog.conf to prevent output to multiple ttys. (You'll see messages in duplicate because, by default, root receives a copy of many messages, such as wheel auths, and so does ttyv0. Disable as many as you like, or reroute to appropriate log files.

From what I understand about rksh and some others this is not entirely accurate. rksh will only run whats in the PATH provided for it. Hence, if you PATH /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin then yes, the restricted user will be able to run another shell. However, if you do what is suggested in the man page and create a local bin directory (or directory of your choice) and place only the binaries you allow for that user to execute then you should be safe. man (1) ksh ... -r restricted mode -- see below ... A shell is interactive if the -i option is used or if both standard input and standard error are attached to a tty. An interactive shell has job control enabled (if avail- able), ignores the INT, QUIT and TERM signals, and prints prompts before reading input (see PS1 and PS2 parameters). For non-interactive shells, the trackall option is on by default (see set command below). A shell is restricted if the -r option is used or if either the basename of the name the shell is invoked with or the SHELL parameter match the pattern *r*sh (e.g., rsh, rksh, rpdksh, etc.). The following restrictions come into effect after the shell processes any profile and $ENV files: o the cd command is disabled o the SHELL, ENV and PATH parameters can't be changed o command names can't be specified with absolute or relative paths o the -p option of the command built-in can't be used o redirections that create files can't be used (i.e., >, >|, >>, <>) Essentially, this restricted shell is chroot'ed (as far as I understand a chroot to be) plus more restricted since the user can't cd.

Are the FreeBSD guys changing things *withouth* reason? Difficult to believe. Horresco audiens (was: referens ;-)) It seems that a whole OS has to meet the needs ... of the sound (!) subsystem. This speaks for itself. Dear Mr. Davida, please go out for a walk, have fun, and think it over again, with a fresh mind. One *simplistic* general consideration only: if you do NOT improve your code (bug fixing, code rewriting etc.) and keep a lot of "legacy code" (in order not to break backward-compatibility), you will end up in ... (wait for it) Micro$uxware ;-) Indeed, in M$uxware, sound is probably *that* important ;-) > Regards, > Joe > >From jin@portnoy.lbl.gov Mon Jan 10 15:53:03 2000 > >Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 13:52:51 -0800 (PST) > >From: Jin Guojun (FTG staff) > >To: billf@chc-chimes.com, jd@davida.com > >Subject: Re: Dynamically loadable drivers > >Cc: bugs@FreeBSD.ORG > > > >Bill Fumerola wrote: > > > >} On Mon, 10 Jan 2000, Joseph Davida wrote: > >} > Looks like 4.0 (as of 01/05/2000) is > >} [...] > >} > I was told that the OSS driver still works > >} > with the latest Linux kernel.

It makes them work, as opposed to not work. :-) Seriously. You _must_ declare global variables which are accessed from a signal handler as ``volatile sig_atomic_t''.

I usually use ``expr'' for integer calculations, and ``dc'' for floating point stuff. I try to avoid the shell's arithmetic expansion, because it's not portable to all sh implementations. For more complicated stuff, I use awk. Or C, if appropriate. See ``man expr'', ``man dc'' and (if you don't like the RPN of dc) ``man bc''. > Or is perl better to use in this case?

Add the following lines to your $HOME/.Xdefaults: *VT100.foreground: yellow *VT100.background: black *VT100.reverseVideo: true Don't know about the -w option, it doesn't seem to have any effect on my machine. Anyway, refer to ``man xterm'' for a list of all the resource settings. If there's no .Xdefaults file in your home directory, simply create one. If it is not sure, place the following command at an appropriate place somewhere in your X startup scripts (executing it multiple times doesn't hurt): xrdb -merge $HOME/.Xdefaults That's it. I'd recommend against using an alias or a wrapper shell script. That's not the way it is meant to work.

One thing I am not good at is explaining myself clearly. I am aware that the IP addresses (10.0.0.0, as well as others) are not routable on the internet. Here is what I am trying to achive: I have 6 public addresses which need to map directly to 6 different machines behind the firewall. (bad drawing below) Public Address IPFW Private Addresses x.x.x.x -------> 10.1.1.x . . . x.x.x.x+5 -------> 10.1.1.x+5 This is how I envision this working. User attempts to connect to a machine with the Public IP address of x.x.x.x. The data is recived by my router, and re-directed to the public interface of the IPFW box. Once the data reaches the IPFW box it applies the appropriate rules and passes it off to the appropriate machine on the private interface. I hope that this explains what I am trying to do a bit better. I do have to apologize for the confusing thought-train on the previous message. Again any help with this matter would be appreciated.

The problems I'm having: The port creates a tm.h file which a comment indicates should match src/gcc/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/Makefile. The resulting file appears to contain a number of mutually-exclusive includes, plus inclusion of a file which doesn't exist. Assuming this comment actually meant src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/Makefile, then the tm.h file created is very wrong. #include needs to be added to freebsd-compat.h and wrapsyscall.c, and #define socklen_t int to wrapsyscall.c. When compiling /usr/src/contrib/gcc/libgcc1.c, I get "cc1: Invalid option `-fexceptions'". If I drop the -fexceptions, I get "tconfig.h:1: gansidecl.h: No such file or directory" (indeed, I can't find that include file in either linuxthreads or /usr/src). If I drop gansidecl.h, the make dies because it doesn't know how to make new1.cc. There's no new1.cc in linuxthreads or /usr/src. At this point, it's clear that I'm making more than cosmetic changes, and even if I manage to get things to compile, it's not going to work for what I need it to work for _anyhow_. [I'm trying to use it for mysql, which involves C++ code, and at this point it looks like it's trying to build the C++ support.] Any ideas? While I could see 3.x-current having support for various different interesting kernel things, I'm not clear why it would be different at _this_ level.

If i understand this correctly (and i'm sure i'll be corrected if not ;-) Once a major release goes public, -current is slated for the next major revision number. So, when 3.0 came out, -current would be slated to be 4.0. Meanwhile, enhancements are built and tested on -current, and where possible, these are back-ported to the 3.x branch. Also, minor enhancements and bug fixes are incorporated in each of the 3.x releases (the -stable branch). Some changes, however, cannot be back ported, due to major architecture changes or other reasons. These enhancements stay in -current until the next major release, which in this case will be 4.0. -=> jm <=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 7:20:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from jupiter.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de (jupiter.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de [129.187.186.90]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id AFC7C154EA for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 07:20:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from scherer@venus.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de) Received: from neptun by jupiter.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de via SMTP (950215.SGI.8.6.10/931108.SGI.ANONFTP) for id QAA20418; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 16:20:56 +0100 Message-ID: <387B539E.1376E295@venus.t30.physik.tu-muenchen.de> Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 16:00:30 +0000 From: philipp scherer Organization: theoretische Physik t38, TUM, 85748 Garchung X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04Gold (X11; I; Linux 2.0.30 i586) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: aic7xxx timeout again Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, perhaps somebody reading this can help me. As I saw, there are many questions in this mailing list which describe similar problems as I am experiencing but not much answers. My system contains Asus P2BS (onboard SCSI) PII/400 IBM 9GB U2W nvld disk Plextor 32x CDROM YAMAHA 4416 CDRW (I read about the LUN problem of YAMAHA CRWs) January 1999 I had problems to install linux as the SUSE bootdisk did not work. All the timeout and scsi reset problems which have been described so often. I compiled new kernels (2.0.35 and 2.2.5) with probe all LUNS disabled and reset time 15 secs and then linux booted and worked as expected (aicxx7 versions 5.1.2 and 5.1.5 were okay) Now I want to upgrade to a newer kernel but the correspondingdriver versions (I tried 5.1.17 - 5.1.20) do not work. SCSI timeouts and resets when the YAMAHA (SCSI ID 2) is probed It seems that only those driver version work which download 407 sequencer commands. Can anybody tell me what I have to do to get the recent driver version running or is it possible to use the old 5.1.5 version with a new kernel ?

Thanks a lot. It is an IDE disk. I have no idea why disklabel reports them as "ESDI" (maybe historic reasons?), but it seems to be normal.

Use "kbdcontrol -d" to dump the current keyboard mapping, edit the entry for the scroll-lock key, and run "kbdcontrol -l mapfile" to reload.

I'm just wondering two things: 1.) I use the "/usr/bin/mt rewoffl" command when rewinding my tapes offline. I'm just trying to find out why sometimes it actually runs the command twice. Example: sidewinder1# chio status picker 0: slot 0: slot 1: slot 2: slot 3: drive 0: sidewinder1# This is showing that the first tape is loaded. When I run the "/usr/bin/mt rewoffl" command, it's "suppose" to go to the next tape in line, which would be slot 1. For some reason, *sometimes* it skips, and just goes to slot 2. Any ideas on this? I'm just trying to find an accurate way that I can rewind the tape and have it move on to the next one. 2.) I was also wondering why sometimes I run that /usr/bin/mt rewoffl command, I get "Device not configured" on some tapes. Any ideas? Any help would be great, and greatly appreciated. Thanks very much! :) Regards, Mychal L.

The manpage for routed(8) says: "Static routes in the kernel table are preserved and included in RIP responses if they have a valid RIP metric (see route(8))." The route(8) manpage does not, however, explain what a "valid RIP metric" is. I've tried adding a static route with a -hopcount 1 modifier, and "route get" confirms that the route is added to the routing table with the hop count intact. However, routed still isn't advertising the route to its RIP neighbors. What next?

I am Italian and I have happily downloaded ports from all over the world, eg from the following: "Russia 3" (ftp4.ru.FreeBSD.org ...) "Russia 4" ... "Australia 1" (ftp2.au. ...) "Australia 2" ... Usa,Uk, etc. etc. Traffic may vary with your mileage (even over time ;-) Please note: sometimes the directory structure may change. One trivial example. Some weeks ago, I wanted the Scilab port (math) 2.4.1. In the meanwhile Scilab-2.5 had been "published" by INRIA. As a result, Scilab-2.4.1 had been moved to .../distributions-old. After getting a few ports errors, I went to the ftp site (via the simple, plain ftp program), had a look around and found out the reason for the errors. Then I went to the port makefile and you've already guessed what I did :-) Sometimes even the supposed directory structure might change: the ports mechanism looks for something in .../intermediate_directory/.../distfiles and there is NO .../intermediate_directory/ If you have a look around the world, you will certainly run into this situations, take my word. The recipe should now be clear ;-) Best regards, Salvo N.B. myjokingdomain =3D=3D=3D> neomedia.it to e-mail to me. ******************************* * * * Windows: brain-dead limits * * BeOS: limited apps * * Linux: unlimited (mindset) * * FreeBSD: no limits * * * ******************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 11:43:46 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.bezeqint.net (mail-b.bezeqint.net [192.115.106.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DD8321551A for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 11:43:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sarig@bezeqint.net.il) Received: from bezeqint.net.il ([212.179.12.110]) by mail.bezeqint.net (Sun Internet Mail Server sims.3.5.1999.07.30.00.05.p8) with ESMTP id <0FO60039CS3RRB@mail.bezeqint.net> for questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 21:43:15 +0200 (IST) Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 21:42:12 +0200 From: Oren Sarig Subject: Mirrors for ports?

I am Italian and I have happily downloaded ports from all over the world, eg from the following: "Russia 3" (ftp4.ru.FreeBSD.org ...) "Russia 4" ... "Australia 1" (ftp2.au. ...) "Australia 2" ... Usa,Uk, etc. etc. Traffic may vary with your mileage (even over time ;-) Please note: sometimes the directory structure may change. One trivial example. Some weeks ago, I wanted the Scilab port (math) 2.4.1. In the meanwhile Scilab-2.5 had been "published" by INRIA. As a result, Scilab-2.4.1 had been moved to .../distributions-old. After getting a few ports errors, I went to the ftp site (via the simple, plain ftp program), had a look around and found out the reason for the errors. Then I went to the port makefile and you've already guessed what I did :-) Sometimes even the supposed directory structure might change: the ports mechanism looks for something in .../intermediate_directory/.../distfiles and there is NO .../intermediate_directory/ If you have a look around the world, you will certainly run into this situations, take my word. The recipe should now be clear ;-) Best regards, Salvo N.B. myjokingdomain ===> neomedia.it to e-mail to me. ******************************* * * * Windows: brain-dead limits * * BeOS: limited apps * * Linux: unlimited (mindset) * * FreeBSD: no limits * * * ******************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 11:51:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from point.osg.gov.bc.ca (point.osg.gov.bc.ca [142.32.102.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8973B154D4; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 11:51:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Cy.Schubert@uumail.gov.bc.ca) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by point.osg.gov.bc.ca (8.8.7/8.8.8) id LAA30658; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 11:47:55 -0800 Received: from passer.osg.gov.bc.ca(142.32.110.29) via SMTP by point.osg.gov.bc.ca, id smtpda30656; Tue Jan 11 11:47:43 2000 Received: (from uucp@localhost) by passer.osg.gov.bc.ca (8.9.3/8.9.1) id LAA38198; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 11:47:42 -0800 (PST) Received: from cwsys9.cwsent.com(10.2.2.1), claiming to be "cwsys.cwsent.com" via SMTP by passer9.cwsent.com, id smtpdc38196; Tue Jan 11 11:47:36 2000 Received: (from uucp@localhost) by cwsys.cwsent.com (8.9.3/8.9.1) id LAA55191; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 11:47:35 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <200001111947.LAA55191@cwsys.cwsent.com> Received: from localhost.cwsent.com(127.0.0.1), claiming to be "cwsys" via SMTP by localhost.cwsent.com, id smtpdL55184; Tue Jan 11 11:46:44 2000 X-Mailer: exmh version 2.1.1 10/15/1999 Reply-To: Cy Schubert - ITSD Open Systems Group From: Cy Schubert - ITSD Open Systems Group X-OS: FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE X-Sender: cy To: Dag-Erling Smorgrav Cc: Brad Knowles , Holtor , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Kernel Option: TCP_DROP_SYNFIN In-reply-to: Your message of "11 Jan 2000 09:42:13 +0100."

The following ipfw rule will also prevent OS fingerprinting. deny log tcp from any to any in tcpflg fin,syn Would this too have problems with TTCP? The reason I ask is that I've been using this rule for a ever since 2.2.x (cannot remember the exact date) and I haven't had any problems with TTCP enabled. I know I should look at the RFC (and I will after lunch), but I'll ask anyway. Does TTCP use packets with SYN/FIN set?

Well, what comes just before line 36? Parsers often get confused by some minor problem like a missing punctuation mark, and this manifests itself as a complaint about a following line.

I appear to have discovered a minor bug, which seems to have "ethical" connotations, so to speak. If I boot just after a "shutdown -p now", I get a "WARNING: / was not properly dismounted" error. I have investigated the problem just a little. The result is surprising: AFAICS, the error only occurs when I issue "shutdown -p now" *immediately* after my login. If I do anything requiring a little "syncing disks", like opening a few windows or saving a few files, NO error is displayed at the subsequent boot. I would never have noticed it if John had not set me thinking. In fact, I usually perform quite a few tasks on my system. I confess that I even find it difficult to call it a proper bug ... My platform is much like John's: ASUS P2B-F AGP motherboard, Pentium III 450MHz, 384 MB RAM etc.; FreeBSD 3.3-Release: kernel options: options "VM86" device apm0 at isa? Incidentally, at boot time, two short messages are displayed about BIOS basemem and extmem (64MB), the latter not corresponding to (RTC) RAM (384MB). These messages are not logged in /var/log/messages, either. AFAICS, the OS sees my real memory (correctly indicated) and simply *ignores* what the BIOS extmem reports. Somehow, the OS considers the two "BIOS" messages even NOT worth logging ... Apart from this curious little anomaly, my system seems to work with no problems. All of my RAM is seen (real memory=3D393216K bytes) and used. On the other hand, I reproduced the above-described situation (shutdown -p now just after a login) for testing purposes only. Normally, "shutdown -p now" gives rise to no boot errors on my system. Finally, AFAIR, no such errors have occurred under R.H. Linux 6.1. Evidently, FreeBSD does NOT tolerate laziness ... ;-) Best regards Salvo N.B. myjokingdomain =3D=3D=3D> neomedia.it to e-mail to me. ******************************* * * * Windows: brain-dead limits * * BeOS: limited apps * * Linux: unlimited (mindset) * * FreeBSD: no limits * * * ******************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 14:23:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from uplink.net (marcie.uplink.net [209.173.80.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B80101548E for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 14:23:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rknebel@uplink.net) Received: from rknebel (rknebel.uplink.net [209.173.88.243]) by uplink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA08971 for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 17:23:50 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 17:21:45 -0500 (EST) From: Rick Knebel To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: apsfilter 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, I am trying to set up apsfilter in 3.4 for my epson Stylus color 740.

Recover it from your backup tape. Older unixes I've used did not have -e, so I've become used to doing: crontab -l >/tmp/ct vi /tmp/ct crontab /tmp/ct Maybe that's a good thing. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 14:44:46 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from aragorn.neomedia.it (aragorn.neomedia.it [195.103.207.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E13FF14F7B for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 14:44:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bartequi@nojunk.com) Received: from bartequi.ottodomain.org (ppp39-pa4.neomedia.it [195.103.207.231]) by aragorn.neomedia.it (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id XAA24300; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 23:44:19 +0100 (CET) From: Salvo Bartolotta Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 22:45:51 GMT Message-ID: <20000111.22455100@bartequi.ottodomain.org> Subject: Re: cvsup To: "David Daugherty" Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: X-Mailer: Supercalifragilis X-Priority: 3 (Normal) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< On 1/11/00, 10:26:03 PM, "David Daugherty" wrote regarding cvsup: > I can't seem to get cvs to run the way I want.

Apsfilter messed up a few things during the setup process. However,this required just a little "housekeeping" work ;-) I specified /var/spool/output/lpd as my spool directory, which is NOT apsfilter default (/var/spool/lpd), and I noticed something wrong. Apsfilter operated as if I had specified /var/spool/lpd. I checked /etc/printcap: it contained references to /var/spool/lpd; moreover, the apsfilter stuff had also been put in /var/spool/lpd ... and you can guess the trivial workaround: all the references in /etc/printcap must be coherent with apsfilter stuff. E.g. if you also chose /var/spool/output/lpd, then make sure that the references in /etc/printcap correctly point at /var/spool/output/lpd, and move all the stuff in /var/spool/lpd to /var/spool/output/lpd. The uniprint driver is more recent than the stcolor. Please have a look at it: it might work better. If things have not significantly changed in the meanwhile, this information might be relevant.

I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say 'sysmouse' won't work. sysmouse(4) is a driver module -- not an executable program. I think you meant to say 'moused' doesn't work, so we'll work on that :-) What's in your /etc/rc.conf file? Here's what's in mine regarding mice: moused_enable="YES" moused_type="auto" moused_port="/dev/psm0" > If I use a serial mouse they both work fine. My PS/2 mouse used to work with > previous versions of FreeBSD. Hrmm very strange. Work through 'man moused' (an excellent manual page) and see how you get on. It's my guess that if you have 'auto' as I do above, you may have to change it for some other value -- the mouse type is not being explicitly probed. Or, and this is more likely, your devices are messed up. What is the output of ls -l /dev/psm0 /dev/sysmouse /dev/mouse ? best; gjvc -- [gjvc] 4.4BSD 4.ever!

Please try both as an exercise :-) They are described in the docs (yet again !). Hint I (kernel PPP) You migh wish to define a /etc/ppp/peers and write an /etc/ppp/peers/your_isp script in which ... Hint II (user PPP) You migh wish to add a "allow users my_user1 my_user2 ... " in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf ... Your "Internet" users should belong to the network group. Read the archives, too ! ;-) Both PPP work seamlessly for me.

Please try both as an exercise :-) They are described in the docs (yet again !). Hint I (kernel PPP) You migh wish to define a /etc/ppp/peers and write an /etc/ppp/peers/your_options(for your isp) file in which ... ---------------------------------------------------------------- From pppd(8): FILES /var/run/pppn.pid (BSD or Linux), /etc/ppp/pppn.pid (oth- ers) Process-ID for pppd process on ppp interface unit n. /etc/ppp/pap-secrets Usernames, passwords and IP addresses for PAP authentication. This file should be owned by root and not readable or writable by any other user. Pppd will log a warning if this is not the case. 22 PPPD(8) PPPD(8) /etc/ppp/chap-secrets Names, secrets and IP addresses for CHAP authenti- cation. As for /etc/ppp/pap-secrets, this file should be owned by root and not readable or writable by any other user. Pppd will log a warn- ing if this is not the case. /etc/ppp/options System default options for pppd, read before user default options or command-line options. ~/.ppprc User default options, read before /etc/ppp/options.ttyname. /etc/ppp/options.ttyname System default options for the serial port being used, read after ~/.ppprc. In forming the ttyname part of this filename, an initial /dev/ is stripped from the port name (if present), and any slashes in the remaining part are converted to dots. =3D=3D=3D=3D> /etc/ppp/peers A directory containing options files which may con- tain privileged options, even if pppd was invoked by a user other than root. The system administra- tor can create options files in this directory to permit non-privileged users to dial out without requiring the peer to authenticate, but only to certain trusted peers. /etc/ppp/ppp.deny Lists users who may not use the system password PAP authentication. /etc/ppp/ppp.shells Lists user shells which are approved for system password PAP authentication logins. ----------------------------------------------------------------- I used the chat program for my homebox. You can use whatever program you like :-) It is the /etc/ppp/peers/your_options file which contains, among other options, the reference to your chat file (i.e. the string connect '[omissis...] /etc/ppp/chat_your_isp` ). Both files don't need execution permissions. My hand slipped here :-( Next, I wrote some scripts (kernelppp-on, kernelppp-off ... )in /etc/ppp, so that I would run them as a user (member of the network group). I have given all this stuff the appropriate permissions, so that it can be used by the members of the network group. I can use both kernel and the follwing userland PPP as an ordinary user (network group). . I hope I have given you an overall idea. It is more complicated to say than to do ... Actually, I worked this out by myself (handbook, man pages, trial and error etc.). There isn't, AFAIR, a step-by-step guide. The idea should be correct and works fairly well.=20 If it isn't, I will certainly be scolded soon :-)) Hint II (user PPP) You migh wish to add a "allow users my_user1 my_user2 ... " in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf. Your "Internet" users should belong to the network group. Read the archives, too ! ;-) Both PPP seem to work well for me.

Most Linux users are running on low-cost Intel-based PCs. If you're in this category, then FreeBSD is probably best, as it generally has the best support for Intel PC hardware. Other than Intel, FreeBSD also supports the Alpha, so it might also suit you if you if you have an Alpha.

Very briefly, with great over-simplification: FreeBSD's strength is performance. OpenBSD's strength is security. NetBSD's strength is portability. But really this question cannot be answered completely, and the answer changes over time.

Uh, yeah, but my question was more along the lines of WHY it was written this way. :) Is this any reason user names should not have a period?

As in, it no longer works. I've reinstalled m3socks, no joy. "Normal" (non-m3) socks5 packages work fine. But running "m3socks cvsup ....." gives the following: Updating from cvsup.au.freebsd.org Cannot connect to cvsup.au.freebsd.org: Connection refused CVSup update ends at 2000/01/12 13:16:43 and the socks5 server logs Jan 12 13:16:42 firewall Socks5[286]: Auth Failed: (192.55.198.3:2536) This stopped working after upgrading cvsup, as noted above. However a few things were upgraded about then, so this *may* be a coincidence; the fact that it's only "m3socks cvsup" that fails seems to point at either m3socks (which was unchanged until just now) or cvsup itself that has broken. So... is anyone using cvsup 16.1 behind a socks5 firewall successfully? -- This transmission is for the intended addressee only and is confidential information.

Im } sure the script would be easy enough to modify to accept a period. It used to be (and still is, on some UNIXen) that chown would accept "dot notation" to also do a chgrp; in other words, $ chown user.group /tmp/blat would change the owner and group on /tmp/blat. Many implementations have since changed their chown to use user:group instead, which is safer, but for compatibility reasons, using dots in usernames is not recommended. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 11 19:37: 9 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from localhost.airmail.net (ppp04-594.algx.iadfw.net [208.10.233.86]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6B49C14FBE for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 19:37:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from michael.brune@airmail.net) Received: from airmail.net (localhost.airmail.net [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.airmail.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA00369 for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 21:33:51 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from michael.brune@airmail.net) Message-ID: <387BF61F.EB76C901@airmail.net> Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 21:33:51 -0600 From: Michael Brune X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: maxmem Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I increased the kernel parameter maxmem to 65536, and everything works, but now I have the error "Bad DMI table checksum!" during boot.

This is quite interesting. I always thought so yet :-) If I understand you right, it's enough to let natd listen to the gateway interface and let it know about the addresses it should work with? Interesting. What if there are further hosts next to the gateway interface on the Ethernet (if there is some Ethernet), does one have to do proxy ARP so the NAT box recognizes itself is meant for these packets or is that done by some routing (even static routes) ? > A sticter ruleset would look like: Of course, this was an example. I wrote more complex firewall configurations with more than 250 rules. This as an example how to bring it to work to try it out, see if everything is right. Such a minimum configuration is IMO a good point of starting because one cannot do wrong very much. You can of course still found hundreds of ways to make your firewall/NAT setup to not work anymore later, I think :-) > > and a natd configuration like > > > > alias_address a.b.c.1 > > > Why wasting the a.b.c.1? The `interface xxx' clause will do the trick. > I would also recommend `deny_incoming', `use_sockets' and `same_ports'. I know I sometimes need to explain some things better which I meant implicitly. I meant a.b.c.1 as the address for the gateway interface, and in this case natd shouldn't take care if it refers to that by an interface directive or an alias_address directive. > Like I said, the latter is not required at all, just make sure > the traffic for a.b.c.[2-4] is passed via `xxx' interface. You can do that by routing if you have some part of a ``real'' network (like a /29 part) if you have an interface address your ISP routes the complete network to. I have done configuration where three or four IP addresses of a /24 or /27 configuration where used for NAT and where some other machines are on the same piece of Ethernet, so one way is routing (static routes, perhaps published by some routing protocol), another may be proxy ARP, and I chose ifconfig aliases :-) (The last two work based on ARP and make reaching the NAT host independent from IP routing - I have done six or seven NAT configurations yet, and I don't want to decide which way is the better one or the right one.

We have a client who currently uses NDS, can anyone tell me or point me to somewhere which describes what is "directory services". How does Novell DS compare to the new MS Active Directory and to LDAP. Is there some directory services protocol that runs on FreeBSD. So far, everything that runs on NT (server services I am talking about) seems to run better on FreeBSD, so why should Novell be any different?

I would go with the 2940 as it is probably the best supported. There are some new drivers in the works for the NCR cards, but they have not yet made it to the 3.x RELEASE tree. That being said, there are people happily using the NCR cards, but YMMV.

I have emailed them about it. A major australian internet company is using this type of card, and I think it would be wise for freebsd to support it.

It is designed for linux so I thought what such nice people FreeBSD are they have given me this option to do so. I ran the install and all went fine till it tried to chgrp to root, which on freebsd doesn't exist. I worked around this by adding another group all went well. Reran steup and all stoped due to setup terminated due to errors when copying libary files. Thats the sum total of the error message. I was hopeing that some nice helpful person in FreeBSD land would know how to either fix this, get around this, know the piece of software I am trying to run or be able to point me in the rite direction.

Once you chroot, you can not access anything outside the chroot jail in any way. But with only a restricted shell, you have to be very careful on what you place in PATH. You have to make sure that no program can do a cd or run something outside PATH. Even a harmless vi can ruin your day.

I was surprised to notice this fact last night, when I was trying to check out the doc/ tree. Seems that anoncvs.freebsd.org does not allow me to connect for a checkout. Apart form using CVSup to fetch the sources in the form produced by % cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org:/cvs export doc does any good soul out there know how I can use anoncvs to selectively check out part of the sources? What I want to do is to mirror part of the CVS repository. My supfiel contained: * default release=cvs tag=. Perhaps, I should have used it without tag=. in order to get the files from a checkout and not an export of the CVS repository? -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

If you want to run it on an x86 machine, then FreeBSD is, in my humble opinion, the way to go. If you're overly concerned about security (read 'paranoid' where I write concerned), then OpenBSD is probably a good idea. If, on the other hand, you wish to run BSD on many many different machines and architectures, then use NetBSD. > and which is the difference between this 3 very good Product. You can not be truly objective and characterize any of the three as a `good' product, not until you've used the one you're talking about. However, it certainly makes all us BSD'ers happy to know that, in the Linux camp, BSD means quality. Just pick the BSD of your choice and...

Am I on the right track? Almost. AFAIK, when you use `volatile' each time the variable is referenced, the compiler will generate a memory reference, not relying on the value being saved in a register, etc. The same if true for when the variable is `written', i.e. the memory copy is kept up to date. For the simple program: volatile int k; int main (void) { k = 0; k = 1; return 0; } the command `cc -S' will generate the following (slightly edited) assembler code. The comments are there to help you understand which lines of the assembler code correspond to C code. .text .p2align 2 .globl main .type main,@function main: pushl %ebp /* { */ movl %esp,%ebp movl $0,k /* k = 0; */ movl k,%eax /* k = 1; */ incl %eax movl %eax,k xorl %eax,%eax /* return 0; */ leave /* } */ ret .Lfe1: .size main,.Lfe1-main .comm k,4,4 /* volatile int k; */ You can see that although %eax is used as an intermediate register for increasing the C variable called `k', the value of %eax is saved to the memory location of `k' before the end of the k = 1; statement. This is exactly what volatile means. The memory value is always updated to reflect changes to the value of every volatile identifier. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Am I going to have a problem doing this? First, you will need to edit the /etc/fstab file and change all references to the secondary hard disc to the primary hard disc. You can do this while the system is up in the current machine. BootEasy is already installed on this second disc, right? You should be OK.

I guess you want to see it automatically when you log in though, in that case add it to ~/.profile. Are you saying your login shell is /bin/sh?

It'd almost certainly save you time to start with an existing UNIX package, like irc2.10.1, which is available as a port or package. See http://www.freebsd.org/ports/irc.html Seriously, my feeling is that porting code across the Windows line is a real pain. Ciao, Sheldon.

If you start things up out of inetd(8), then there's per-service and global rate-limiting available. Consult the inetd(8) manual page for details. Otherwise, the options available to you are application specific and thus effective only on a per-service basis, if at all. Ciao, Sheldon.

For asthetic reasons, I like to have all "real" mounts of removable devices under the /mnt directory. So, I have, # ls -l /mnt total 4 drwxrwxr-x 2 root wheel 512 Oct 13 1998 cdrom drwxrwxr-x 2 root wheel 512 Aug 24 15:07 floppy drwxrwxr-x 2 root wheel 512 Sep 23 17:22 jaz drwxrwxr-x 2 root wheel 512 Feb 10 1999 tmp But many programs (including the FreeBSD sysinstall) expect a CDROM to be mounted at /cdrom. So I have, # ls -l /cdrom lrwxrwxr-x 1 root wheel 10 Oct 13 1998 /cdrom -> /mnt/cdrom Now, the feature/bug is the following, # mount /cdrom # umount /cdrom umount: /cdrom: not currently mounted That is, mount(8) can handle mounting at a valid (it points to a valid mount point) symlink, but umount(8) does not seem to handle it. Now, if the bahavior of umount(8) is intentional for security or other reasons, shouldn't mount(8) be the same way (and as far as security goes, generally mount is the one I a more concerned with)? On the other hand, if there is no reason not to add the extra flexibilty of using symlinks, shouldn't umount(8) be able to handle that command line? Thanks for any insights. If it is a bug, one way or the other, I'll send in a PR unless someone beats me to it (and please beat me to it if you know how to write the fix). -- Crist J.

The Mutt user list would be more appropriate. And my .muttrc as well as those of other all have color statements to get the colors right. I don't think I actually tried using default.

I hope so. My next step is a good Unix reference manual for programmers. And an idea for something interesting and within my ability to write.

If you want to prevent PPP from dialling up when a user sends mail, take a look at the PPP filter features. Namely the "set filter dial" features. man ppp for more details.

Do any of you "networking literate" guys know of a web resource that would put all of the above in a diagram form, explaining *when* to use *what* and *how* ----> under *various* (read most probable/common) scenarios - e.g., a firewall/gateway box w/ a single FBSD W/S hung off of it; ditto, but with a single win9x W/S; a single FBSD box working as a W/S -- is there a way to protect *it*? . Let me put it this way: It's difficult to learn how to play soccer if the student has never *seen* a soccer field, its layout and paraphenalia. Advanced soccer theory will be meaningless unless and until the student is introduced to the "big picture". So, in your experience and web "travels", does such a learning resource exist with respect to various BSD OSs that use the above tools?

All you need to do is create a SSH private-public key pair with null passphrase for the user on machine 'A.' Then on machine 'B,' take the public key from the user on 'A' and put it in the 'authorized_keys' file. I do something just like this on a daily dump script. On the machine making the dump, the user is root (although I could use an operator-type user). On the machine the files go to, I use a mortal account made just of this purpose. So as to your point (1), the usernames are diffferent and the passwords are too (in fact, the mortal account has no password; it's locked out from normal logins). The user on the machine sending the dump does something like, ssh -l dumpuser -i .ssh/identity_dump $RMT_MACHINE dd of=$DUMP_FILE Where the dump data is piped to this command. The dumpuser account just needs to have a valid shell and have the correct public key, identity_dump.pub, in its authorized_keys file for this to work. I have also added a "from=" option to the authorized_keys entry for a tad of extra security with the passprhaseless key-pair. -- Crist J.

I do not believe there is a way to make the operating system read your mind to know what permissions you would like on a given text file. However, some editors might be able to make guesses by the extension on a file name. Check your favorite editor's docs and other resources. That said, you might be intersted in umask(1). You also might think of hitting the enter-key every once in a while; your paragraphs are all on one line. -- Crist J.

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've being having some problems preparing a boot floppy which will allow me to boot the hard disk kernel, by booting off the floppy. (using FreeBSD 3.2-Release on a Gateway P150 16MB ram, 2.5GB IDE disk, 2 CDs, 1 floppy, vt320 off cuaa0, PNP modem; everything else is working perfectly, ppp, apm, printers, sound etc.) At the moment, I've tried the following configuration (list of relevant files and their contents from floppy/boot [contents are mirrored on hard disk in /boot ] {note: executables are the same as on the standard install floppy} /boot.config ------------ -P /boot/loader.rc --------------- set currdev=disk1s2a load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.config autoboot 5 /boot/kernel.config ------------------- pnp 1 0 os enable irq0 3 drq0 0 port0 0x2f8 pnp 2 0 os enable port0 0x220 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 pnp 2 1 os enable port0 0x200 At the moment what happens is... (sorry, don't know how to capture exact text from boot process...) boot: -P keyboard found | FreeBSD blahdeblah Loader blahblah jkh@cathair Cannot find /kernel; press [ENTER] to boot immediately, or any other key for prompt. So normally, if the floppy is left alone, it will find /kernel on the hard drive eventually, but won't load the kernel.config script, which means that the modem and sound card won't be configured. However, at this point, if I go to the loader prompt, it shows up as... disk1s2a> (as I put into loader.rc in the "set currdev=" command) Then, at this point, if I execute the following commands... load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.config boot All goes grand... everything loads as planned; only thing is I need to be at the console to do this. I can't fully understand the order in which things are happening... it seems as if loader is on disk1s2a, but for whatever reason kind find /kernel, and bombs out of loader.rc Perhaps I'm missing something in boot.config? Any advice or help at all would be very much appreciated! -- Niall To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 12 11:19:50 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 108CC1557A for ; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 11:19:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id OAA11454; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 14:24:09 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

I have a nice little laptop that I use at work. The local printers are all managed by an NT print server. Can I use the NT print server from my laptop? Anyone have any idea of apsfilter settings to do this? The printers are HP5si's. The NT boxes are NT4, sp3. They answer on tcp/515, so I presume they could handle some basic print spooling. I've been through the handbook, but still don't know enough about UNIX printing to actually understand what I need. Even a URL or handbook section number would be appreciated.

Am I on the right track? No. The problem is that a signal handler can be called at any time, basically, even in the midst of a memory access (depending on the platform). The standard guarantees that accesses to variables of type "sig_atomic_t" are always atomic (hence the name), i.e. they cannot be interrupted by a signal handler. The "volatile" qualifier makes sure that the compiler does not try certain optimizations on these variables, such as caching them in registers (which could also break signal handlers, because the contents of the actual variable might be incorrect if it's cached).

I know this can be done in user space, just keep a list and check after you do an accept(), but I was hoping there was a way to do it in kernel space before it even gets in my listen queue. Otherwise it seems trivial to fill up my listen queue faster than I can perform the accept()s.

Basically, what we're doing is giving our >650 registered developers ftp access so they do not have to find alternative hosting providers. Basically, my question is 2-fold.. 1) Are huge file systems bad? I have concatenated two large drives together using vinum. The resulting file system is 50Gig. 2) Is there another way to structure this that would keep file systems small but be easy to manage if number 1 is bad? Our structure for the ftp site has the ftp dir for each user under /sites/ftp/usr. So like this: usr/bdev1 usr/bdev2 usr/bdev3 usr/bdev4 usr/bdev5 ... As far as I can tell, that makes it very hard to break up all the space into smaller partitions. So that's why I went the vinum route. However, I've had conflicting reports that large file systems can be really dangerous. So I'd like to know for sure. Yes, this 50GB will be backed up. But I want to avoid any unnecessary problems ahead of time.

I get the message: sshd[2064] log: Connection from xxx.xxx.121.35 port 1023 sshd[2064] fatal: Connection closed by remote host. The machine I'm connecting from is behind a firewall, so I tried using the '-P' option with ssh to use an unprivileged port, but I get the same message. I don't have any 'DenyHosts' in my /etc/sshd_config. Unfortunately, the remote machine uses syslog to log to a machine I don't have access to, so I can't see any client-side error messages. I _can_ telnet to port 22 that sshd is running on, so that makes me think that the firewall isn't blocking the connection. Anyone have any ideas?

BTW, I have seldom seen a more useful and pleasant book ;-) However, sometimes, the available resources *are* incomplete or insufficient; which requires a little "trial and error" and "asking the -questions list" :-) In those cases, some more "plain docs" would help -- not only newbies. Also, keep in mind that certain "answers" can be found in more specific books (e.g. there's a ~ 1,000-page book on sendmail, as I recall) ... Some of those books just *must* be bought -- sooner or later. Therefore, the "plain docs" must be written "cum grano salis", in order not to produce unnecessary overlapping etc. AFAICS, the documentation (e.g. the handbook) is getting better and better ...

But I want to avoid any unnecessary > problems ahead of time. From my reading of the different lists I believe the following is the situation as it stands now : 1. Large file systems themselves are not a problem in BSD. Several people have reported having very large file systems on FreeBSD. ( IE : 100G or so ). 2. File systems are large IDE drives seem to be a problem, several people have reported having problems making these large ( ~30G ) disks one file system. The solution thus far has been to break it up into multiple filesystem. I'm not sure exactly where this limit is, possible around ~25G, maybe less. I'm expecting a ~30G IDE disk with in the next few weeks and will see how big I can make it. The IDE drivers in FreeBSD are being replaced so I don't think there will be much work done towards solving this problem until the new drivers are in -STABLE and can be tested with these large IDE drives. Keep in mind this is just my picture of the situation based on reading the different lists. If you are using SCSI disks then #2 may not apply. Depending on what kind of peak load you are looking at then splitting things up ( via vinum or separate disks ) may buy you some performance also. I'm sure there are someways to make splitting up the dir's on to separate file systems managable. Symlinks? Maybe a different naming scheme, like : usr/a/adev1 usr/a/adev2 usr/b/bdev1 usr/b/bdev2 Anyways, just a thought, if it's not what you are looking for feel free to ignore it :-) -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 12 14:11:17 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.enteract.com (mail.enteract.com [207.229.143.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D989314BE9 for ; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 14:11:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nasby@shell-1.enteract.com) Received: from shell-1.enteract.com (nasby@shell-1.enteract.com [207.229.143.40]) by mail.enteract.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id QAA84507; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 16:11:11 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from nasby@shell-1.enteract.com) Received: (from nasby@localhost) by shell-1.enteract.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA18125; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 16:11:11 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from nasby) Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2000 16:11:11 -0600 From: "Jim C.

Once you know that, it's easy to determin what you need to be running. To run down your list: ipfw is used for creating a firewall. This is a little confusing because the functionality provided by ipfw is sometimes used by other programs, normally in the form of the 'divert' setting. natd is an example of this. inetd could be considered the 'operator' for many IP services. Without inted, you would need to run a daemon for just about every single IP protocol that you wanted to allow. Worse, you'd need to keep all these daemons running 24x7, even if the port was only used once in a great while. The daemons would also have to be able to handle multiple connections (though, most do this anyway). Instead of this, you can used inetd. inetd will bind to a set of ports (controled by inetd.conf) and when a request comes in on one of those ports, it will run a specific program, or handle the request internally. named is the daemon that is responsible for serving DNS requests. I'm not 100% certain, but I think that you only need to run it if you actually want to have a name server. ifconfig is just a command, not a daemon. It stands for InterFace CONFIGurator, or at least it should ;) This is the command you use to assign IP addresses to network cards, etc. It is also used by /etc/rc.network at bootup to configure everything per the settings in rc.conf. natd is what allows Network Address Translation. NAT basically allows you to run an internal network with (RFC1918?) IPs (such as 10.x.x.x), and still allow those machines to talk to the internet. When natd sees an IP packet headed for a 'real' IP from a RFC1918 IP, it will change the from address to the address that NAT is bound to. When packets come back in, the reverse occurs. This allows you to connect a large number of computers to the Internet with a single IP. It also provides some security, since RFC1918 IPs are generally blocked by a lot of internet routers. bind I'm not real familiar with bind... I just know it's used by some services. routed is a routing protocol daemon. It allows routers to talk to each other to help determin the best route to an address. If you don't know what it does, you probably don't need to run it. For documentation, an excellent place to start is reading the man pages for the different commands. Another good trick is to grep /etc for 'key phrases'. For example, to see where nat is used, 'grep -v nat /etc/*'. You should also study /etc/defaults/rc.conf and /etc/rc*. Finally, you might want to pick up a copy of 'The Red Book'... see http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0131510517/distributednet Hope this helps. }:8) On Wed, Jan 12, 2000 at 10:29:52AM -0700, Duke Normandin wrote: > Still trying to learning & swearing :-)) > > So this newbie reads posts about: > > ipfw | inetd | named | ifconfig | natd | bind | routed .... ad nauseum > > and the applicable: > > rc.conf | resolv.conf | etc | etc | etc ..... ad multum nauseum > > It's been said ... even before the computer age ;^) ... that a picture (diagram) > is worth a 1000 words. > > Do any of you "networking literate" guys know of a web resource that would put > all of the above in a diagram form, explaining *when* to use *what* and > *how* ----> under *various* (read most probable/common) scenarios - e.g., a > firewall/gateway box w/ a single FBSD W/S hung off of it; ditto, but with a > single win9x W/S; a single FBSD box working as a W/S -- is there a way to > protect *it*? . > > Let me put it this way: > > It's difficult to learn how to play soccer if the student has never *seen* a > soccer field, its layout and paraphenalia.

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, We just built a large webserver machine (PII-450, 1GB RAM, 30-odd G of Mylex RAID, 3.3-R) that constantly runs a load of from 1 to 3, even though it's not doing anything (still sitting as a staging server). The initial startup is also very slow; after about 40 of the servers start there's about a 15 second pause, then another 40, pause, etc... This box is running about 170 virtual hosts (and a full class C of addresses aliased to fxp0) under Apache 1.3.9, with each vhost running as it's own user and starting 3 servers at startup, so there are a large *number* of processes, but no swapping with about half a gig of RAM left free. I have maxusers at 512, NMBCLUSTERS at 4096, and the following sysctl adjustments: kern.maxproc: 8212 kern.maxfiles: 100000 kern.maxfilesperproc: 16424 kern.maxprocperuid: 8211 kern.ipc.somaxconn: 512 This is all gathered from various "tuning for a big webserver" posts from the various FBSD lists. systat, vmstat, iostat all look normal, and I've not seen any curious entries in the logs. So that's the info, my questions are "why the load", and "is that OK"? Something seems wrong here, but I'm at a loss. Any ideas where to start looking?

I've been able to reproduce that "bug" as well. However, it happens on my machine randomly, but particularly after heavy-IO jobs, like rebuilding the world. Though it doesn't seem to cause any damage, it theoretically could. I wonder if it has anything to do with SoftUpdates, as I never saw this problem before. Of course, a simple fix would be to have the shutdown program sleep for 5 seconds after the disk sync is finished, as the problem may stem from the disk sync returning before it was sure that all the required data was written to the disk. I could be wrong, but I might try that out. BTW, I'm running FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE (20001210) on a Tyan S1573 motherboard with a Western Digital 6.4 GB ATA-33 hard drive. I'm not an expert on the nuances of direct hardware programming, but it seems like not all the sync/dismount data is being written.

No. They rule. There are some 'issues' with large filesystems. One is inode allocation. If a filesystem runs out of inodes you are stuffed -- the onlt thing you can do is back up the files somewhere else, create a new filesystem with more inodes that the previous one and restore. Very dull. One situation where this could happen is on large mail servers where each message takes a file in the filesystem.

(It keeps a cache to improve matters however). This is why putting all users home directories in one huuuge-ass directory is a bad idea. This is why you see large sites refer to files in this kind of way /u/h/he/heber Each level of the directory hierarchy has fewer entries so it can be traversed faster. best; gjvc -- [gjvc] 4.4BSD 4.ever!

I am unable to boot (from the boot manager) the second hard disk. However, I can boot such second hard disk from the boot stage 2. I have this configuration: Primary IDE, master: hard disk (wd0), BootEasy, FreeBSD 3.3 Primary IDE, slave: ATAPI CDROM Secondary IDE, master: hard disk (wd2), standard MBR, FreeBSD 3.3 with some experimental changes, not relevant here. Secondary IDE, slave: empty BootEasy is installed with /stand/sysinstall. My kernel configuration (for both FreeBSD installations) is: controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff vector wdintr disk wd0 at wdc0 drive 0 #disk wd1 at wdc0 drive 1 controller wdc1 at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 flags 0xa0ffa0ff vector wdintr disk wd2 at wdc1 drive 0 #disk wd3 at wdc1 drive 1 options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus options ATAPI_STATIC #Don't do it as an LKM device acd0 #IDE CD-ROM The boot manager displays: F1 FreeBSD F5 Drive 1 Pressing F1 brings up FreeBSD on the first hard disk. Pressing F5 produces some movement in the CDROM and then reboots the machine. Pressing F1 and then Space, brings up the boot prompt. Using now boot 1:wd(2,a)kernel allows to boot FreeBSD on the second hard disk. I think I am a similar case to the one explained in the Greg Lehey book ``The Complete FreeBSD'' page 121 (the text version is included in CDROM no. 1, /book/book.txt): >From the book: ... 1. You have two IDE disks, each configured as the master on their respective IDE busses. You have no disk on the primary slave position (you might have a CD-ROM drive there). FreeBSD is on the second disk. The BIOS sees these as disk 0 and disk 1, while FreeBSD sees them as wd0 and wd2, in other words disk 2. To tell the loader how to find it, stop it before booting and enter: ... Effectively, the BTX Loader displays: BTX Loader ... BIOS drive A: is disk0 BIOS drive C: is disk1 BIOS drive D: is disk2 --------------------------- It seems to me that BootEasy is using disk1 as the CDROM instead of using BIOS disk2.

If the above is true, then it's certainly not OK, and there's definitely something wrong. I experienced similar things on other boxes, even simple workstations (no big servers): the load average raised to 1.0, then dropped back to 0.0 after a while, for no apparent reason.

I told that this is optimization you used I386 commands and I386 has increment in memory. If you want to turn optimization completely it should look like this incl k Remember, that k is global and located in a special segment. Take a look at my quote - in another e-mail - A volatile specifier is a hint to a compiler that an object may change its value in ways not specified by the language. That's it, a compiler will try to keep everything in memory, no assumption about registers. And a timer is a good example when "foreign" force can change the value of timer - not a program. BTW, it's a good rool for global variables - do not optimize too much - a value could be change in procedure, allocated in another compilation unit and compiler has zero knolwledge about this "another" compilation unit. This is especially true in C++ world. A global variable could be changed even you do not have explicit calls of another functions - block try-catch creates a dynamic frame and all other functions called from inside try block are working inside this frame - any problem and control goes to the catch block and this block could change the variable. Declaring vilotile in this particular case doesn't help a lot - you could get a signal between incl eax and movl %eax,k - and you are done - value in register doesn't correspond to the value in memory. Moreover, if you change global variable in your signal handler, this value will be lost after movl %eax,k command. What it's important is that these two operation should be atomic ones. In other words, incl k could not be interrupted, or you should provide uninterruptable sequence of command and, I believe, sig_atomic_t does it. > movl %eax,k > > xorl %eax,%eax /* return 0; */ > > leave /* } */ > ret > .Lfe1: > .size main,.Lfe1-main > .comm k,4,4 /* volatile int k; */ > >You can see that although %eax is used as an intermediate register for >increasing the C variable called `k', the value of %eax is saved to the >memory location of `k' before the end of the k = 1; statement. > >This is exactly what volatile means.

And again it's a hint - just a hint. Some aggresive optimizers could ignore it. For example, if commands cli/sti could be used by compiler and works like it work in 8086, optimizer could do the following: volatile int k; int main (void) { int m = 4; k = 0; k = 1; m = k; return 0; } pushl %ebp /* { */ movl %esp,%ebp mov %edx,4 - compiler was able to figure out that it could allocate variable in reg. cli xor %eax,%eax movl %eax,k /* k = 0; */ incl %eax - k =1 movl %eax,%edx - m =k; movl %eax,k - synchronize k sti xorl %eax,%eax /* return 0; */ leave /* } */ ret .Lfe1: .size main,.Lfe1-main .comm k,4,4 /* volatile int k; */ >-- >Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > >"What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

No. It is only guaranteed to be large enough to hold an int. Of course, on intel PCs, a pointer has the same size as an int, but not on other platforms (e.g. the Alpha). Therefore, portable programs cannot store a pointer in a sig_atomic_t. Apart from that: You can't use a FILE* within a signal handler anyway, because most of stdio's functions are not guaranteed to be re-entrant. If you have to do something with a file within a signal handler, use the lower-level file handling functions based on file descriptors, i.e. open(), read(), write(), close(). Conveniently, a file descriptor fits in a sig_atomic_t, too. Please refer to the sigaction(2) manpage, it contains a complete list of all functions that are "async-signal safe". All other functions are _not_ safe to use from within a signal handler.

"volatile" does not mean that the compiler should not optimize. It only means that the compiler must not make certain assumptions about a variable, and that its value may be read or written asynchronously, i.e. its value might not be consistent between statements. No more, no less. Of course, this inhibits certain types of optimizations, naturally. > And again it's a hint - just a hint. Some aggresive > optimizers > could ignore it. No! A C compiler must not ignore the "volatile" qualifier.

Don't get me wrong, I like Alpha, but alpha compiler is not 100% ANSI compatible. If you take a look at HP aCC and 64 bit architecture - you will see the same. So, let me rephrase it - in ANSI world you could do it. and question does it mean that alpha integer is 32 bit, or pointer has more than 64?

I was not talking aboutt "ignore", I was talking about "hint", ehich in my mind means - if you can provide protection, you can use aggresive optimization. Your example still leaves variable in a "stale" mode. And yes, it's a compiler to make sure that the program works, but there are different ways. In my mind, it's pretty close to register specifier - compiler will try to allocate variablue in a registere, but if there is not enough registers then compiler will allocate variable in memory. It's still works, but not as fast as author wanted. The same is with vilotile - if there is a way to provide an "atomic" way for some part of code then compiler can use some pretty aggresive optimizations. > > > For example, if commands cli/sti could be used by compiler > > and works like it work in 8086, optimizer could do the following: > >Yeah, it could, but this is UNIX, not DOS. :) > It doesn't matter, it was just an example, and BTW, you can configure segments in a way when it would be true.

To test the scenario of one of them failing, I shutdown the system and unplugged one. During boot the ccd driver refused to config it. The system dropped into single-user mode for an fsck. I tried removing the "unplugged" disk drive from the ccd.conf line, effectively meaning that ccd0 had only 1 disk drive (the working one). It didn't work, still wanted to fsck. Of course, plugging the drive back in with the original ccd.conf, all works ok. I still haven't brought myself to test the scenario of unplugging a drive "hot", and seeing what happens :-) I'm not getting a warm fuzzy feeling about this. Unless I can figure out how to separate the ccd mirror, or run on 1 drive alone for a short period of time, I think I just statistically have halved the MTBF of either drive. And recovery from a drive failure as such seems impossible. BTW, I've used Solstice on Solaris (please no flames) and it has saved my bacon on a mirror failure. Otherwise, the FBSD ccd works just fine. I just want to know what to do when it doesn't. Anybody been there, done that?

The issue here is that I'm writing an ftp daemon for a compsci project, and I'm getting hung up on what to do when SIGURG is received as part of a TCP sync. Since I've been using stream based functions (fprintf fgets, etc.) I would hope to use those in the sighandler too. If that's not possible (or rather, not safe, as you indicate), how do you suggest I proceed? I suppose I could do a rewrite using combinations of snprintfs to format strings and read/write to do input output. This is certainly possible if necessary, but preferably avoidable. Any suggestions? > Regards > Oliver > Thanks to those who've been helping me so far, I've learned lots of stuff that I didn't know about signals before.

Freebsddiary.org and freebsd.org has seen a lot of me lately! The Pedantic PPP Primer is well done! However, let's suppose that you *needed* to track-down a faulty electrical component in your fancy Ferrari ;-)) - && - that you were a top-cabin FBSD guru *but* a novice, albeit gutsy, automotive tinkerer. Would you not agree that spending an hour or so reviewing your Ferrari's electrical system diagram to be *more* beneficial at the *onset* of your diagnosis / study? You will of course need to "man ferrari_shop_manual" ;^) eventually, for the down-and-dirty "nuts-&-bolts" of your endeavor. I've spent 17 years as Manager of the Internal Audit Dept. for a major Oil & Gas Company. Often, it our interaction with the Systems Analysts in our IS Dept. , flowcharts were produced, for not only software applicable to our on-going EDP audit, but for inter /intra -departmental methologies and procedures. Of course there was the Policies and Procedures Manuals (man pages) for the groddy details -- which my staff *had* to read and be familiar with. However, there is _*nothing*_ like a diagram or flowchart to make a point *quickly* and *precisely* -- especially for novices. That has been my experience!! Oil & Gas Process Engineers used Gas Plant Diagrams and "bluelines" when discussing their "network" of pipes and valves and processes. The rookie engineer with his "Engineering HandBook" review the diagrams and _understand_ what's going on in front of him! I have to conclude that such an instructional tool doesn't exist (yet) in the FBSD community and that the topic is moot. If and when I get up to speed on this stuff, that will be my first contribution to the cause. I should say second constructive contribution, because I responded to a request concerning the make-up of a"cross-over" cable sometime ago. I simply attached to my post a copy of a "diagram" of such a cable. This diagram was part of the Ethernet tutorial that I spoke of in my previous post. The recipient was tickled pink at not having to "merely" read about it - and - I was glad that I had it saved for future reference. Get my point....?

I have one of these installed in our server at work, connected to a pair of 10GB IDE drives. This machine previously ran Win95 and was used as our Internet gateway and to share its hard drive space with 7 other Win95/98 clients. Because of instabilities with Win95 (who would have thought?--after all, all this machine ever ran was WinGate, MDaemon, and File and Printer Sharing, but it wouldn't go 2 weeks without having to be rebooted...), about 6 months ago I put FreeBSD on it and was pleasantly surprised to find that the Arco DupliDisk is indeed OS independent. I haven't had a drive failure (knock on wood), but supposedly the DupliDisk will allow you to keep operating on the remaining drive until it's convenient to shut down and replace the failed drive. You have to boot to DOS on a floppy to use their software to rebuild the mirror, but that's no big deal... Bottom Line: If you want to mirror an IDE system, the Arco DupliDisk is a worthwhile addition at $250 or so. Highly Recommended! --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!

The error says "Write failure on transfer! (wrote -1 bytes of 1024 bytes)" I have tried replacing the last two disks numerous times to no avail; so I know that the disks are not damaged. Is it that the files themselves are corrupt? I downloaded the "/bin" directory straight from the FreeBSD ftp site. Previous installation attempts on this 486 went smoothly, but for some reason this attempt is not working. Any idea's to what this error means? Also, is their any way to compress a hard drive in DOS previous to a FreeBSD installation? I really need more space on my 164MB hard drive.

A program which assumes that an int is large enough to store a pointer is BROKEN. See this simple test program: #include int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { printf("sizeof(int) == %d\n", sizeof(int)); printf("sizeof(void*) == %d\n", sizeof(void*)); return 0; } On an Alpha (64bit), the result is: sizeof(int) == 4 sizeof(void*) == 8 That was compiled with DEC's C compiler in -std1 mode. This is one of the most ANSI/ISO-compliant compilers that I'm aware of. (Note that gcc is not that ANSI-compliant.) > and question does it mean that alpha integer is 32 bit, or pointer has more > than 64? See above. ints are 32 bits, pointers are 64 bits. And this is perfectly within ANSI spec.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to set up a FreeBSD 3.4 workstation on our LAN at work and having a problem. We use NIS (not +) from a Sun Solaris 2.5.1 server. I *think* I have everything set up properly for FreeBSD to be an NIS client. I'm not above making mistakes, so if something is wrong in what I've done let me know. Per the FreeBSD Ezine, and other messages in the mailing list archives page, I changed the /etc/master.passwd, group, hosts, host.conf, master.passwd, passwd. The +::??????? entries are at the end of each appropriate file. I have the following settings in rc.conf: nis_client_enable="YES" nis_client_flags="" nis_ypset_enable="NO" nis_ypset_flags="" I've tried with the client flags set to -s, -S domainname,servername and no options. Using the -S option gets me a bunch of restricted mode access list messages. After reading messages in the mailing list archives, it seems that using no options is the best way to go. ypbind runs and doesn't complain, but I am unable to login using any of the NIS logins. ypwhich shows the correct server. I can use ypcat to get all sorts of good info (passwd, group, netgroup). I'm not subscribed to -questions, so please forward replies directly. If you need more info, then let me know and I can dig it up.

For example, this is true for variables which are mapped to hardware registers, and for variables which are located in a shared memory reagion (which is shared with other processes), and for variables which are accessed from within signal handlers. > In my mind, it's pretty close > to register specifier - compiler will try to allocate variablue in a > registere, > but if there is not enough registers then compiler will allocate variable > in memory.

The "register" qualifier is, indeed, just a hint for the compiler that it might be worth to hold this variable in a register if possible. The compiler is allowed to completely ignore it. A compiler that doesn't even implement that register optimization at all would still be perfectly ANSI-compliant. But, the "volatile" qualifier must _never_ be ignored. It is not just a hint. > It doesn't matter, it was just an example, and BTW, you can configure > segments in a way when it would be true. And even in Unix world you can > use sigmask.

The protocol of the DC240 and 280 is publicly available (they bought it from a Japanese company who developped it), thus oPhoto supports it (http://www.fromme.com/ophoto/). The DC260, 265 and 290 use a completely different protocol from a different company. So far, I have been unable to get the docs. :-( You could maybe try a standard serial connection (RS232) and the gphoto (it's in the ports), but it will be horribly slow. If you have a supported camera, too, (DC240 or 280) you could also move the CompactFlash card over to that one and use oPhoto to download the pictures via USB... Or, of course, you could try to ask Kodak for the docs (USB- level interface protocol) and write the code yourself. Using oPhoto as a rough framework, it shouldn't be too difficult, once you have the docs. You need to know how to spell ANSI-C, though. :-) Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 12 21:17:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hsalouserv1.hsacorp.net (208-247-171-50.hsacorp.net [208.247.171.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 01B7F15073 for ; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 21:17:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jconner@enterit.com) Received: from default (24-216-177-226.hsacorp.net [24.216.177.226]) by hsalouserv1.hsacorp.net with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2650.21) id CPRQ2FJS; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 00:11:23 -0500 Message-Id: <4.2.0.58.20000112001423.009b89b0@mail.enterit.com> X-Sender: jconner@mail.enterit.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.2.0.58 Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2000 00:18:46 -0500 To: Tim Tsai , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Jim Conner Subject: Re: lost space - how to find it?

Has anybody been able to obtain them, either from official sources or by reverse engineering? I'm willing to spend some cycles on it, but you really can't do much without doc of the protocol.

Did you newfs that filesystem with any unusual parameters? Are you using soft-updates? What's the output of ``df -ki''? Note that "du" is not perfectly accurate, and I suspect that it might have difficulties with hardlinks (I'm not sure), but all of that does not explain the large difference that you described.

This particular box sort of grew without significant changes over the past 3 years so it is a little bit, errr, disorganize. One of these days it'll get wiped and have a clean install over it instead of trying to reorganize. Just an interesting comment - all that space just came back. Very annoying. > 1 /nonexistent > > Why did you create that?

It's been ther for two years and nobody remembers why it was there or who put it there. Like I said, what this machine needs is just a new install over it.

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 everyone! I've been searching and browsing the Cisco web site for a router that has either a built-in ethernet WAN connection or optional ethernet WAN module, unfortunately only the high-end routers have that kind of feature. However, the 2514, 2611 and 3620 series routers support dual-LAN routing, which in theory is equivalent to LAN/WAN routing. I'm not sure if using dual-LAN routing would work for routing our LAN through ethernet connection. If any of you have experience with this type of configuration, please verify my assumption and/or correct me if I'm wrong. By the way, I also came across the Netopia R9100 Ethernet Router, does anyone has opinion on the performance of this router? Looking forward in hearing your replies.

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 Hmm... Went to install Jan 11th's 3.4-STABLE snapshot on a client's system: Pentium II-233 ASUS Motherboard (don't have chipset handy... Uses SDRAM) 64MB SDRAM Using IDE drive controller, second serial port, parallel port Not much else... Generic PCI sound card that currently hasn't been configured in the kernel. I'd provide dmesg and X errors, but thanks to DHCP, my client's IP has changed and I won't have ssh access for a little while. My apologies... I'll do the best that I can. When starting X, the card is correctly (--) probed as a Rendition Verite 1000. However, no matter what card I choose in the XF86Setup card config, I get funny results. VGA16, of course, works... But is NOT really an alternative :-) Trying SVGA server with generic (probed) settings in detailed setup doesn't get very far... Starting X either gives a blank screen and a HARD LOCK (i.e., hard drive dies, logout, Ctl-Alt-Del ineffective, can't ping from outside. Power toggle/fsck required), or starts in funny modes like 320x200 (unknown colour depth). Selecting the Rendition Verite 1000 gives the same results as above (most commonly, blank screen and lock). Selecting Creative's Verite 1000 will actually start X with what appears to be the selected (640x480) screen resolution. However, when X is shut down, I get a helicopter pattern in text mode across all vtys that various vidcontrol settings/modes won't fix. Fastboot outta that one, for lack of a better way to set scan frequencies or whatever is causing the flipping :-) Selecting just about anything else gives at least one of the above scenarios. This is the first time I've heard about these Verite cards... All I know about this particular card is Win98's internal Rendition Verite 1000 driver appears to be able to fire the card flawlessly, and switch back and fourth to/from full screen text without the helicopter pattern. I'm open to the idea that the card/monitor/system combination is buggy/damaged, but I'd be more inclined to think it's a compatibility problem.

Cisco does have DSL routers available but the maximum upstream bandwidth is not in megabit range. We have T1 links in our office, and this will just be a link between our branch offices since it's an extremely cost-effective solution with DSL.

Got it in one. The last of the socks5 servers was upgraded from 1.0.8/9 to 1.0.10 around the same time cvsup was upgraded, it seems this behaviour changed with that.

After reading through the release notes I noticed that ppp was modified in this new version. I am using 'ppp -auto -nat' as I use the machine as gateway for the rest of this small network.

Yup, "Ethernet WAN" is rather a contradiction in terms...my brain is probably having a glitch after the y2k... The scenario is that the ethernet port will be connected to a DSL modem and routing between the LAN and WAN (in this case, the DSL modem on the ethernet port) will be setup. Just out of curiousity, what router are you running? the dual-LAN model?

The CD set is only US$40 plus p+p, and I suspect that this might still be cheaper than a d/l for a student. mvh/regards James Wilde To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 1: 8: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from 1stpenshurst-scouts.asn.au (saints.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.197.126]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 6D32D150DE for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 01:08:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from lists@1stpenshurst-scouts.asn.au) Received: (qmail 10633 invoked by uid 1007); 13 Jan 2000 09:12:01 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 13 Jan 2000 09:12:01 -0000 Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 20:12:00 +1100 (EST) From: Lists To: FreeBSD Questions List Subject: Linux Program (fwd) 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 have sent this already and no one answered but thought I might try again.

It is designed for linux so I thought what such nice people FreeBSD are they have given me this option to do so. I ran the install and all went fine till it tried to chgrp to root, which on freebsd doesn't exist. I worked around this by adding another group all went well. Reran steup and all stoped due to setup terminated due to errors when copying libary files. Thats the sum total of the error message. I was hopeing that some nice helpful person in FreeBSD land would know how to either fix this, get around this, know the piece of software I am trying to run or be able to point me in the rite direction.

Not only do you get the low cost for hardware, you get a free router, web site, DNS secondary, mail server, and anything else you want to customize. Not to mention a free firewall and natd (if you're into that sort of thing. :-) If this is a link between two offices, then you don't have to worry about the tech support for end users. So, if someone has some basic working knowledge of FreeBSD, your solution is the cost of two old machines.

Nothing really, it's my preference to only use void when I mean: "i know this function returns something that may be interesting, but frankly I don't care at this point" using it for things like printf is a bit much, but it sort of let's the next guy know that you didn't miss something. I also remember hearing that older compilers had an option to complain about code that didn't do something with return values. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 2:55:49 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mercury.is.co.za (mercury.is.co.za [196.4.160.222]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2EBF814EBB for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 02:55:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from paulskin@icon.co.za) Received: from icon.co.za (c2-dbn-4.dial-up.net [196.34.155.132]) by mercury.is.co.za (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA28918 for ; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 21:53:49 +0200 Message-ID: <387CDB63.E911A1BE@icon.co.za> Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2000 21:52:03 +0200 From: Paul Skinner X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: 2 queries when I use my freebsd box as a dial-up router 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 two questions...I followed the tutorial at : http://www.za.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ its on how to use the command " ppp -auto -alias demand " to create a dialup router I have two questions...firstly how do I stop the system from not only trying to dial when I attempt to access the server itself and not needing to dial. I setup a simple ppp filter in ppp.conf to deny it access to the dialer when I telnet into the server and it won't let me use telnet until its dialed in.... Another one why is my system always dialing out even when its the only computer on and nobody is using it...I have set a filter to deny ICMPs from triggering the dialer...

NDS 8 is also fully LDAP compatible. I myself have been working in NDS environments for the last 4 years, and cannot help but laugh at the starry eyed Active Directory supporters at my new company who wants to run it over a wan with 64Kb links (also used for internet access) :) There is supposed to be a Linux version in the pipeline which may or may not work on freebsd. There's also some other products that allow you to integrate NDS with NIS I think. Very costly though...

I don't know if this will help, but here are some ideas: - if the error occurs soon after going to one floppy, maybe it was the last file on the previous floppy that was defective. - All the files (e.g. bin.aa, bin.ab, ...) are supposed to have a size of 240640 bytes (except the last one of each distribution and the .inf files). (In case you downloaded the files with a web browser, especially check the files with the extensions .ai and .cc .) - At the beginning of the installation, you could go to the "Options" screen and enable "Debugging". Later, when the error occurs, hit ALT+F2 to see the debugging messages. (Probably this won't help much, though). - Is it possible that the disk or partition is full? You could hit ALT-F4 to go to the emergency shell and enter "/bin/df" to see if there's no space left. (df should be available by the time you reach the last few floppies.) > Also, is their any way to compress a > hard drive in DOS previous to a FreeBSD installation?

Oh, nevermind, I found the answer. The VIA Apollo Pro+ is the direct competitor to Intel's 440BX and apparently has no goodies over it and the compatibility problems persist. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 4: 8: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from solaris.matti.ee (solaris.matti.ee [194.126.98.135]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1890115566 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 04:08:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vallo@matti.ee) Received: from myhakas.matti.ee (myhakas.matti.ee [194.126.114.87]) by solaris.matti.ee (Postfix) with ESMTP id EC7FB2CE54; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:08:00 +0200 (EET) Received: by myhakas.matti.ee (Postfix, from userid 1000) id C6288C2; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:08:01 +0200 (EET) Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:08:01 +0200 From: Vallo Kallaste To: Chris.Smith@raytheon.co.uk Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dilemma: what motherboard to choose?

What I'm after are some pointers on what to do to try and isolate the problem, hopefully with the end result being a system that stays up for more than about 3 days at a time. I will describe the symptoms, my configuration, and also include my attempts at a post mortem below... The problem: Most of the time the system just appears to freeze, with no error message on the console - at this time the IDE HD LED is usually on solid (however no audiable disk activity) the keyboard offers no response, the system no longer responds to any form of network probing (arp, ping etc) and requires physical intervention in the form of a power on/off (no reset button) This seems to occur most often when the system is under high load, but also appears to occur when system is mostly idle. I can do a make world (and also make -j4 world) with no problems, which indicates to me that the hardware should be pretty much ok. I have not swapped the various components around or tried parts from other systems in there, but I am reasonably confident in the hardware - certainly the harddisk and ethernet cards were working in my other PC for 6months+ with no problems. The most recent time it occured, I had some moderate NFS traffic (cvs update across 10mb ethernet, frozen system as NFS server) and at the same time some fairly heavy local disk activity (local cvs update from local repository) and also routing light http traffic to/from ISP (multilink userppp - 2x56k modems at about 8k/s sustained traffic) After the reboot, there was no coredump generated. I have the following output of an attempt to debug a panic from several days ago(my first time attempting to use gdb so I didn't get very far) I basically followed the example in the faq/handbook but didn't know what to make of the output... kernel post mortem output: 17:08:18 tony@random (/usr/src/sys/compile/RAND)$ gdb -kernel kernel.debug /var /crash/vmcore.5 17:10:19 tony@random (/usr/src/sys/compile/RAND)$ gdb -kernel GNU gdb 4.18 Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

And Alpha compiler just plain violates this standard (BTW, didn't check recent C standard - C99 or C98).

But take a look at the standard: sizeof(short)<=sizeof(int)<=sizeof(long) and sizeof(void*)==sizeof(int). GCC team is very accurate - if they know that they have something incompatible with ANSI standard they always tell it - there is a whole document in distributuive that states what is different and why GCC team thinks it should be different. > > and question does it mean that alpha integer is 32 bit, or pointer has more > > than 64? > >See above. ints are 32 bits, pointers are 64 bits.

Can anyone help me as > in how to configure my sendmail to use my SMTP proxy. You can find a lot of information on relaying mail through your ISP's smtp server in the handbook and the faq. Start at the "Electronic Mail : FAQ" section: [ http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mailfaq.html ] The basic setup, which I repeated for a machine in one of my friends home is roughly equivalent to: # cd /usr/src/etc/sendmail/ # cp freebsd.mc localhost.mc Then edit localhost.mc to suit your needs[1]. While editing the .mc file, you will find a lot of valuable information in the file /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README After you have edited localhost.mc, execute (still as a superuser): # make localhost.cf # cd /usr/obj/usr/src/etc/sendmail # cp -f localhost.cf /etc/sendmail.cf Pay special attention to the define(`SMART_HOST',`mail.isp.com')dnl statement. You should replace mail.isp.com with your ISP's mail gateway. [1] This step is not so easy as it sounds, if you start from scratch. Luckily `freebsd.mc' contains all the essential parts. Minor changes are required, and you're ready to go :) -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

However, `long' has the size of the longest value that can be stored in a word on a given architecture, and this is usually just the right size for storing pointers ;) > Sorry, guys, but it requirenments of ANSI that sizeof(void*) == > sizeof(int).

I used GNU C a couple > of times there and everything was OK. Is it a special compiler? GNU cc is a different compiler than those usually shipped from the so called `vendors'. It is not 100% ANSI compliant either, but those few features that are not ANSI-safe can be turned off with an option. To qquote the GCC manuals, one can use -ansi to "turn off certain features of GNU C that are incompatible with ANSI C, such as `asm', `inline' and `typeof' keywords". For even stricter ANSI support, the use of -pedantic will "cause non-ANSI programs to be rejected gratuitously". -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

You can always check on your machine with sizeof(). But I think that in most machines this is true. I used the following sample program to check on my box and it shows that (FILE *) and sig_atomic_t have exactly the same size. % cat hello.c #include #include int main (void) { printf("%d %d\n", sizeof(FILE *), sizeof(sig_atomic_t)); return 0; } % cc hello.c % ./a.out 4 4 Ciao. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

The 3 gig drive is the primary master, with filesystems for /, swap, /usr, /var, /tmp, and /home. The two 34 gig drives each have a single 30 gig filesystem, the two of which are striped RAID-0 with vinum. Softupdates are running on all filesystems except for /. I had repeated problems getting the large IDE drives to work, and I've come to understand that FreeBSD has some bugs with regard to these drives, and my workaround was to use less than their full size and stripe them. They seem to be working fine, but I'm experiencing another problem that's approaching severe. After doing a cvsup and make world last week, I noticed a slew of messages on reboot saying "bad file descriptor: /dev/wd2" etc. There were about 20 of them and they were almost all in the /dev directory and they were all on the / filesystem. I rebooted in single user and ran fsck on the read only root system and restarted, and the number of error messages was reduced to three. I posted a query about it on -questions, but no one answered. Then, after a subsequent cvsup and make world, I rebooted to see 20 something bad file descriptor warnings again. This time, when I brought it down to single user and fsck'd it, one of the files it "corrected" was the system console device, and another was the character mode device for the /usr filesystem, resulting in kernel panics on startup. I attempted to fix it with a "fix it" disk, but apparently I wasn't up to the task. I ended up re-fdisk'ing the drive and doing a complete reinstall of BSD and all the filesystems on the 3 gig primary master drive. Incidentally the 3 gig drive formats with no bad sectors, as do the other two. The BIOS is set to normal mode for all three, and BSD seems to recognize them with the correct geometry. After doing my reinstall of 3.4-RELEASE, I did a quick kernel build to get my internet connection back up and running with ipfw, then cvsup'd and did a make world. When I finished make world, build a new kernel (just adding IPDIVERT, IPFIREWALL, IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE and SOFTUPDATES) and rebooted, a had twenty something bad file descriptor messages, just like before. I'm afraid to reboot the thing or do any more make worlds because I can't afford for this machine to be down any more than it has been. Can someone tell me what's going on? My first reaction was that maybe the FreeBSD bug about IDE drives was the problem, but all of my problems are on the / filesystem on a drive that's only 3 gig in size, a size that's extremely common. I'm really at a loss here, any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I've always been a FreeBSD fan, both because of the philosophy and for technical reasons, and I convinced my employer to go with a FreeBSD solution for their internet firewall as as a backup machine for a network of SCO OpenServer servers. My arguments which won them over were based both on cost and on the amount of functionality that FreeBSD provides. But when it came time to install these two 34 gig drives, and I had a problem, I felt sure it was just me, and I could get to a solution, but I've come to find out that it isn't apparently going to be fixed prior to a completely new ATA driver, which I've also been told isn't being recommended for general production use because it's a .0 release. Needless to say, when I was honest with my superiors and explained that it was a bug I didn't know about, that I posted it to the development groups, and that I was told they weren't going to fix it, FreeBSD didn't get a big boost around here, and neither did I, frankly. I'm over it, I think, and I know I'm an adult and have to be responsible for my own actions, but I really had a greater amount of faith than has been bourne out here. I'm resolving to be more careful with my recommendations, even if I want FreeBSD to be successful, and I do. Please believe me when I say that I sincerely wish that I had both the talent and the time to fix it myself, but I honestly don't have any idea why this is happening or how to go about fixing it. I'm sorry if this seems bitchy, I just had to get it out. Thanks for listening.

Can you quote where in the standard it says this? I believe you are incorrect. I don't have a copy of the actual standard document, but Kernighan and Ritchie say nothing more than "A pointer may be converted to an integral type large enough to hold it; the required size is implementation-dependent." This directly contradicts your claim. I *do* have an early draft (from about a year ago) of the C9x standard document, and it says the same thing, albeit in a lot more words. - Lowell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 7:33:44 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from math.udel.edu (math.udel.edu [128.175.16.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 855171531D for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 07:33:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from schwenk@math.udel.edu) Received: from math.udel.edu (sisyphus.math.udel.edu [128.175.16.167]) by math.udel.edu (8.9.3+Sun/8.9.1) with ESMTP id KAA08396; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 10:33:35 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <387DF04F.B33622CE@math.udel.edu> Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 10:33:35 -0500 From: Peter Schwenk Organization: University of Delaware X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; SunOS 5.7 sun4u) X-Accept-Language: en, fr, de, ko MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Bruce DeVault Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: recurring bad file descriptors References: <200001131506.JAA00597@fw.intechsoft.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I probably don't know from whence I speak, but what happens when you partition the 34 GB drive into two 17GB halves?

(Yes, I realize, that the kernel on HD will be without ida > driver.) It has worked for me. Just remember to make sure you have you custom kernel in place rebofore you reboot after installing everything. I know that there are problems with the ida driver and the EISA version of the controller. I think that the driver never got synced up with the eisa code when the eisa stuff changed a while back. This part is pure conjecture though.

Actually we run FreeBSD servers to serve web, DNS, mail and files (with Samba), and they were servers I setup back then. I'm very grateful to have deployed FreeBSD to perform all those tasks because we never had any problem with them. On the networking side, we have been using Cisco products for a very long time. The performance and reliability are just outstanding, so we tend to stay with Cisco equipments for our network infrastructure. I've found a solution, and thank you all for your generous help!

This depends on the type of file you're trying to download. I know cdnow.com uses multiple formats (mp2, real, liquid player, and Windows media player). You're screwed if the file you want is a Liquid file - that's Mac/WindoZe only. Depending on what they want you to use Windoze media player for (it can play mpegs), you might be able to get away w/ a mpeg sound player. You can use a mpeg sound player to play mp2 (I personally use mpg123 from the ports collection). Real you can try to use the Real player from the ports tree or try rvplayer5 (the Linux version). I've had mixed success w/ this.... > Also, .wav files played into /dev/dsp play at half speed. Can this be > fixed? Hmmmm - well that's strange. Are you just cat'ing the files to /dev/audio? I use splay to play wav files (it can also do mpeg audio I believe, although I don't know if it can do mp3s) - it's in the ports. If this doesn't work, you could try using sox to change the frequency rate. There might be a switch to play at 2x speed as well somewhere - I know splay has a "half-speed" switch - not what you want I guess though. :-) Brett ***************************************************** Dr. Brett Taylor brett@peloton.runet.edu * Dept of Chem and Physics * Curie 39A (540) 831-6147 * Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics * Walker 234 (540) 831-5410 * ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 9:48: 4 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from designdata.com (ns.designdata.com [209.0.219.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 99077155DA for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 09:47:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from agueco@designdata.com) Received: from webaccess.designdata.com by designdata.com (5.4R3.10/200.8.1.3) id AA05521; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 12:45:40 -0500 Received: from DDS_DOMAIN-Message_Server by ddsmail.designdata.com with Novell_GroupWise; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 12:50:33 -0500 Message-Id: X-Mailer: Novell GroupWise 5.5.2 Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 12:50:05 -0500 From: "Armando Gueco" To: Subject: Re: hardware compatible/supported?

This _explicitly_ says that you the programmer know that the function returns a value but choose to ignore it. That's all. It's a better way of programming. By the way I can tell that you have reached that level where obscure language features that you don't know bother you ;>. Well the only way is to read the standard or you take a look at books which go through the standard bit by bit. A good book on this is "C, A Reference Manual" by Samuel P. Harbison and Guy L.

I see new ports that I didn't have before, and I see old ports with new dates and version numbers, but I can't find openssh or OpenSSH or open-ssh in /usr/ports/security nor in /usr/ports/INDEX, and when I look via the web site I see a port tarball for it but the "source" is just a list of checksums. Others seem to be getting openssh automagically and I feel a bit left out :-) A most learned gentleman assured me that the reason was that I was doing my ports wrong because I couldn't have read the handbook, so I thought I'd better ask for help when another re-reading took me down the same path. Now I'm back where I started. Does everyone else's ports tree have openssh in it? -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 11:24:44 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from extremis.demon.co.uk (extremis.demon.co.uk [194.222.242.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 5CC7D14A18 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 11:24:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjvc@extremis.demon.co.uk) Received: (qmail 23903 invoked by uid 1010); 13 Jan 2000 19:23:10 -0000 Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 19:23:10 +0000 From: George Cox To: Jonathon McKitrick Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: supermount?

How can I get routed to advertise static routes? The manpage for routed(8) says: "Static routes in the kernel table are preserved and included in RIP responses if they have a valid RIP metric (see route(8))." The route(8) manpage does not, however, explain what a "valid RIP metric" is. I've tried adding a static route with a -hopcount 1 modifier, and "route get" confirms that the route is added to the routing table with the hop count intact. However, routed still isn't advertising the route to its RIP neighbors. What next?

I got the port, compiled it (Xfree3.3.6 is needed in order to support the new chip) and installed it. Everything went OK, but the problem is that the server wouldn't show correctly the fonts! This only happens when enabling the acceleration (default option). If I use Option "no_accel", then it works beautifully (but slow as hell). So has anybody found this problem or know how to solve it? Thanks, Josep M. PS: CC me also, since I'm not in -questions.

It looks fine to me. Can you press this person to reveal the mystery so I can correct mine and perhaps offer a send-pr to fix cvsup-bin which installed it? :-) Perhaps this person was referring to your techniques of actually building and installing the ports and dependencies themselves and not your cvsup usage? That can be tricky sometimes.

Nope, the port should be in all collections. There is no restriction on the ports skeletons. If you want proof, you can download the port from ftp.cdrom.com which is in the US. ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports-stable/security/openssh/ All you need to do to cvsup the ports correctly is copy /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile and replace CHANGE_THIS.FreeBSD.org to your favorite cvsup server. -- Brooks -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one" --Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 12:24: 9 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailb.telia.com (mailb.telia.com [194.22.194.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 78CE715170 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 12:24:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jimbo99@telia.com) Received: from d1o32.telia.com (d1o32.telia.com [194.236.208.241]) by mailb.telia.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA29876 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:24:04 +0100 (CET) Received: from julia (t7o32p4.telia.com [194.236.209.124]) by d1o32.telia.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id VAA07347 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:24:03 +0100 (CET) Message-ID: <004301bf5e04$1c279720$7cd1ecc2@julia> Reply-To: "Jimmy Hjelm" From: "Jimmy Hjelm" To: Subject: Re: Rage LT Pro AGP 2x Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:23:51 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > > "Virginia K.

I have the exact same card, and I use ATI Mach64 Rage Pro. Use the automatic probing, and you may want to set the amount of video memory manually (probably 8mb - it seems to be pretty standard). You need a version of XF86 more recent than about 1-2 years, so the one you've got should work very well. Just use Mach64 Rage Pro, and you will have no problems. Just be careful to get the right monitor settings, it might = be a little trickier than it seems at first. /Jimmy P.S. DO NOT use the Rage II choice or anything like it, and DO NOT = change the RAMDAC settings, it may mess up your card.

Yep. :-) As Mark noted, your ports supfile looks okay to me. You don't have a refuse file running around do you? In terms of finding things in INDEX - INDEX is only updated occasionally when the PW decides it's best (actually I think it's when he builds all the new packages every other week or so). In any case, it doesn't get updated everytime something new goes in the ports tree. That said OpenSSH shows up in my INDEX now (I just re-cvsup'ed just to see). Initial import of openssh happened back on Nov 8th according to the CVS logs. Are any of the ports in your security directory getting updated? Maybe the permissions got screwed up at some point on this directory?

But we always implemented int as a longest value that could be stored in a word and long usually made longer than int (not always) - reason beind it if somebody wants to use long - compiler should give thos possibility to user, even long can work a little bit slower. > > > Sorry, guys, but it requirenments of ANSI that sizeof(void*) == > > sizeof(int).

Why has ssh to do anything with X? SSH allows you to run X applictions on a remote host such that the application displays on the local host like normal, but with all session data being sent over the encrypted channel. -- Brooks -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one" --Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 13:27:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.mia.bellsouth.net (mail2.mia.bellsouth.net [205.152.16.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7881B152E0 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 13:27:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from otterr@bellsouth.net) Received: from bellsouth.net (adsl-77-244-61.mia.bellsouth.net [216.77.244.61]) by mail2.mia.bellsouth.net (3.3.5alt/0.75.2) with ESMTP id QAA02224 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 16:27:13 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <387DFBD5.FB15F4B3@bellsouth.net> Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 16:22:45 +0000 From: Otter X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: IDE driver bug References: <200001131506.JAA00602@fw.intechsoft.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG don't think that your cries aren't heard, but unless you're programming on that driver with no success, don't bitch too much. no, i'm not a programmer either, but this operating system has a helluva lot more perks than some of the others... not to mention, for a much smaller cost. ok, is this your one big bitch? go tell the bosses that if they are THAT serious about the dependability and performance of hard drives, go with scsi drives. they'll perform better (and last longer, from my experience). buying good hardware is still cheaper than what many companies (including where i'm employed) are spending on software these days. -Otter *stepping down from the scsi-3 soapbox* Bruce DeVault wrote: > Also, I want to say something that's been on my mind since the large > IDE drive problem first came about, and I was told that it wasn't > going to be fixed.

I am trying to get a reliable desktop system working, but I keep running into the same problem over and over when I am in X: My mouse cursor will disappear after a random amount of time - 1 minute, 10 minutes, 1 hour... the bottom line is that as soon as this happens, the machine is locked up SOLID. I can't switch to a virtual console, the machine no longer responds to pings, I can't telnet in. The only way to get the machine back is to hit the reset button and do a hard reboot. My system is as follows: FreeBSD 3.4 Stable HP Kayak XA workstation - PII 333 128MB Ram Cirrus Logic GD5465 Video - 4MB Video Ram PS/2 Keyboard PS/2 Microsoft Intellimouse (I have also tried a regular PS/2 mouse and a plain serial mouse - same problem) The system originally had an AMD PCNet PCI adapter that was giving heaps of kernel errors, so I replaced it with a 3Com Etherlink XL PCI. Same problem. I'm pretty sure the problem is with X. I can work indefinitely in console mode, and it was working fine under Win NT. I have also tried several different Linux distributions on this machine with the same outcome - It locks up hard in X. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

It was not Oliver's example; it was mine. Any blame for not using aggressive optimization should also be credited back to me, and not Oliver, thank you. In fact, I did use -O2 of gcc-2.7.2.3 which comes with my FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE. That was supposed to provide for some form of optimization. Anyway, what volatile means, as far as I have understood so far, is that "between" C statements the compiler can not assume that the variable has not changed. Therefore, it's value must be refetched from it's memory location, instead of relying on a register which `might' contain the value of the variable. If a signal handler changes the value of a variable, the context change that happens when you enter the signal handler is not know to the compiler. Two statements like: int k = 0; k = 1; might be interrupted for handling a signal. If the compiler can assume that the value of a register holds the true value of `k' and a signal handler changes it in the middle of these two statements, then weird things can happen. That's what `volatile' is supposed to protect us from. > The same is with vilotile - if there is a way to provide an "atomic" > way for some part of code then compiler can use some pretty aggresive > optimizations. There are ways to provide atomic modifications to memory areas under Unix too, but that would require the compiler to know a lot more about the execution environment (Unix in this case). Semaphores spring into my mind, but that would require the compiler to know whether you have SYSV_SEM in your kernel options, which you might prefer not to have. It's a mess, it seems...

As I said in a previous posting a few minutes ago, Oliver did not use that example of mine for supporting his notion of `volatile'. Not only because it was not his example, but because the example was ill fortuned since I did not use `cc -O2 -S hello.c' when converting the C source to assembler. When I tried this a few seconds ago it gave: % cat hello.c volatile int k; int main (void) { k = 0; k = 1; return 0; } % cc -O2 -S hello.c % cat hello.s .text .p2align 2 .globl main .type main,@function main: pushl %ebp movl %esp,%ebp movl $0,k movl $1,k xorl %eax,%eax leave ret .Lfe1: .size main,.Lfe1-main .comm k,4,4 which does in fact use what you suggested in a previous posting, the instructions that set `k' to 1 are converted to `movl $1,k' which I can assume that executes atomically as far as signals are concerned. It seems that `volatile' is effective in GNU C only when optimizations are enabled, because without optimizations the code is, well..., unoptimal, and can cause great troubles when used with signals ;) -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

You don't have a lot of space to play with. If you want to to anything moderately serious with FreeBSD, you really should consider buying a dedicated hard drive. The things are so darn cheap these days, anyway. You didn't tell us how much system memory your system has... But, if you have 64MB or more, you could probably live with a very small (16-32MB?) swap. I have 128MB on a medium-load web/mail server and the swap space is only used in highly exceptional circumstances. (Read: uncapped recursion in programs run as root, loading half a dozen instances of netscape, and the like :-) SO... You can probably safely trim your swap space to a low value. The following is something that is not highly recommended, due to root filesystem corruption concerns... However, to save a few extra megabytes elsewhere, consider making a single slice mounted at / with all of your available drive space (less your swap slice, of course :-) -- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 14:45:40 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from c014.sfo.cp.net (c014-h023.c014.sfo.cp.net [209.228.12.87]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C67FA14CF1 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:45:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Squirrel@flashcom.net) Received: (cpmta 11426 invoked from network); 13 Jan 2000 14:45:32 -0800 Received: from 63-248-46-197.usa3.flashcom.net (HELO bart.bsdsquirrel.com) (63.248.46.197) by smtp.flashcom.net with SMTP; 13 Jan 2000 14:45:32 -0800 X-Sent: 13 Jan 2000 22:45:32 GMT Message-ID: <387E6344.41C67EA6@flashcom.net> Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 17:44:04 -0600 From: Andy Ledvina X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04 (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Kernel make problems Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------446B9B3D2781E494167EB0E7" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------446B9B3D2781E494167EB0E7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I get errors about files already being defined when trying to mka emy kernel, I am sending it as an attachment.

The only other alternative is to change them via the userconfig at bootup (ala boot -c), or edit /boot/kernel.conf directly then reboot, but compiling the defaults directly into your kernel is a much more elegant solution. If you're ever in doubt, you can always try a compile without make install. If the make fails where it didn't before, chances are your config is incorrect. And, if the kernel compiles and installs, but you have still really fouled something up (incorrect/conflicting address, or you remove something silly like your hard drive controller), and your system doesn't boot, you can always reset and specify a different kernel. (If you don't delete it, kernel.old will be your kernel as it was before the last recompile). kernel.GENERIC should be kept around as a last-best-hope for booting if your new/old kernels won't boot. -- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 14:53:47 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BFA1814A09 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 14:53:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA03511; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 16:53:43 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from dan) Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 16:53:43 -0600 From: Dan Nelson To: Alex Charalabidis Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: NetWare/BorderManager vs FreeBSD/squid Message-ID: <20000113165343.C99955@dan.emsphone.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: ; from "Alex Charalabidis" on Thu Jan 13 15:40:17 GMT 2000 X-OS: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode (Jan 13), Alex Charalabidis said: > I've been asked (almost told) to install an as yet unspecified > version of Netware with an as yet unspecified flavour of > bordermanager to serve as a caching proxy. How does FreeBSD with > squid (or any other species of mollusc) compare to Novell's monster > creations? Depends on workload. http://bakeoff.ircache.net is an URL for a proxy-cache competition that was held early last year. Prices for the systems tested ranged from $200K to $3K, and pages/sec from 1600 to 96. See the results at http://bakeoff.ircache.net/N01/report.pdf. The small Novell/Dell box cost $13K and could do 400 requests/sec. The squid entry cost $3K and did 96 req/sec. See the appendices for details of each machine tested, and comments. > I'd like an unbiased comparison but could also use one that gave me > ammunition to shoot the project down. :) If they're one and the same, > so much the better.

If you're not planning on serving more than a couple hundred client machines, squid will work great. The Novell boxes handled high load much more gracefully, though, According to their web-page, the next Bakeoff is going to be from Jan 17-28, so you might want to see what happens there before deciding on a platform. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 15: 2:34 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sasknow.com (h139-142-245-96.ss.fiberone.net [139.142.245.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D778D150BA for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 15:02:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Received: from localhost (freebsd@localhost) by sasknow.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA28907; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 17:02:49 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 17:02:49 -0600 (CST) From: Ryan Thompson To: Adrian Urquhart Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Testing In-Reply-To: <20000113200550.29937.qmail@qmail.devnet-uk.net> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 13 Jan 2000, Adrian Urquhart wrote: > Hi > > Just ignore this That's a little hard, considering my mail server (and thousands more) have already received your message. > - testing that I can send mail to the list.

The servlets will use a MySQL database that also sits on the same machine. We were until now using a computer equiped with FreeBSD 2.2.8 to do the job, and we're moving to a new computer since the old one begins to get really old. The performance were satisfying, although I didn't had to tweak around. But the fact is, the new server will have to be the fastest as possible because the server will soon be much more busy than it used to be. So I'm searching for the best performance with what I have, that is a dual p2-500 computer, a FreeBSD-3.4-RELEASE and a 4.0-20000110 snapshot. As the 4.0 tree natively uses egcs, or gcc-2.95, compiler, and as a lots of people told me that it was better than the old classic gcc, I was wondering if running the server on a 4.0 snapshot would be forth the try in terms of performance. For now I'm planning on using the 3.4-RELEASE, but I was wondering how egcs can improve the performance, if it does, and if it at the cost of stability. I'll be glad to hear from peoples who knows the answer, Thanks in advance, Erik de Zeeuw To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 16:35:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fh106.infi.net (fh106.infi.net [209.97.16.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 694EA14E8F for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 16:35:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bsdbox@citizen.infi.net) Received: from citizen.infi.net (pm3-136.w66.infi.net [208.130.33.136]) by fh106.infi.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA09789 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 19:35:52 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <387E6F49.2402389C@citizen.infi.net> Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 19:35:21 -0500 From: Scott Gregory X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (WinNT; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: MAPI compliant Mail Server Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Does FreeBSD have a MAPI compliant mail server available?

Try a 'make clean' before you do the 'make' and see if anything happens. As for "kde," I assume you are talking about /usr/ports/x11/kde11. There should be a Makefile in there.

Why has ssh to do anything with X? It tunnels X connections automatically. If I ssh into a remote machine with X installed and I'm sitting at a machine running X, when I type 'xterm' I get a window on my screen. The X connection between the machines is tunneled through the ssh connection. I have never had X forwarding trouble with OpenSSH, however... Well, that is, never had trouble once I realized that X forwarding is turned off by default in the sshd_config that comes with OpenSSH and turned it on. -- Crist J.

If you are on a T1, any ol' 10BaseT NICs are an order of magnitude faster than what is coming over your pipe to the outside. The T1 speed also means CPU speed is not critical if the machine is purely doing things like IPFW and NATd. If you are going to go with an older machine, the only thing I would make sure to watch for is that is has enough RAM. You do NOT want your daemons to have to be swapping in and out. RAM becomes even more important if this machine is doing ftpd (as you somewhat imply, or is the ftpd machine behind it?). A pile of ftpd's running at once can add up. I'd also want fast disks if its a busy ftp server. My $0.02. -- Crist J.

I don't see it helping in your situation, but using the latter method for mounting is generally considered to be more "correct" for somewhat obscure reasons that are completely tangential to this post :-) You also shouldn't (even with a CD-R/RW drive) need to specify the readonly option. When mounting ATAPI CDs, r/o is forced. Receiving an input/output error when attempting to mount a CD can be caused by one or more of several things. Note that the errors reported by mount are not always entirely "correct", or as verbose as would be desired, as they are based largely on return codes issued by your CD hardware, which can vary dramatically from vendor to vendor. Some possibilities: - No CD in drive - Incorrect data format (not ISO 9660) - An ISO 9660 disc, with unsupported extensions - Damaged/incorrect CD - Improperly configured/jumpered CD-ROM drive. See below. - CD-RW disc formatted in CD-RW mode (yes, you CAN write to these like a CD-R as well) - CD-R discs recorded in multisession and/or with a session open often cause a problem - Incompatible CD drive (I didn't notice a brand name... ATAPI 40X? Sounds kinda generic to me :-) In particular, try some different discs. Many people have had trouble mounting audio discs as data (and you shouldn't need to if you just want to listen to the audio). Try some known-good CDs (do you have the Walnut Creek CD-ROMS? Or any commercially burned data-only CDs). The jumpering/cable position problem has come up an awful lot lately, it seems. I've posted one or two replies in this regard myself... You may want to search the mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/search/) for "CD jumper" or something similar. Your CD lives on wdc1, your secondary IDE controller. Can I assume that it is the only device on this controller? If it is, make sure that you have the CD drive physically jumpered as a SINGLE DRIVE. (NOT as a master, and certainly not as a slave). I can't tell you what jumper orientation you need, as that is vendor-specific. Convention suggests that the single drive setting may involve removing the jumper altogether, or placing it on only one pin. If your CD shares the channel with another device, you may have other issues: If the CD shares a channel with a hard drive, the CD should (and in many cases MUST) be a slave, and should connect to the MIDDLE position of your IDE cable. Ensure, as well, that the hard drive is jumpered as master. If the CD shares a channel with another IDE device such as a backup unit or IDE floppy, you may have to experiment with master/slave roles to find the one that works. I say all this because it happens frequently, and the more I harp about it on the mailing lists, the better the chances of someone finding it in the archives :-) MS operating systems do not always have the same problems as FreeBSD, due to differing implementations of ATAPI support... So, many CD drives that are jumpered incorrectly appear to work under Windows, but do not under FreeBSD, even though they may be detected. > Obviously the system knows the drive is there.

Probably I didn't myself clear enough. When I qouted BS, I mean, that value of variable could be changed not just between lines, but as a matter of fact, while you are in the middle of line. Timer is perfect example. Your example about hardware ports and registers is another perfect case. Any hardware works asynchronosly and can chage this variable at any time. And let me say something more - variable could be on a register if this is the only copy of a varible. Once we wrote a compiler (I believe, for some NS chip). It has 192 registers - very RISK CPU - w eallocated a special pool of registeres for global variables, we wrote the whole system - compiler, smart linker, etc. And in PDP11 world you could map memory to registers (or vice versa), and that allows you to do some fancy stuff. So vilotile, form my point of view, means - no copy of a variable. > >If a signal handler changes the value of a variable, the context change >that happens when you enter the signal handler is not know to the >compiler.

It's a mess, it seems... Yeap, but sometimes, hardware gives you a special support. There was a big discussion about ho to implement semaphores on I8086, 286, until Intel supports a special command. But even then there were some problems with multi CPU support. If you are interested, I can try to recall all this stuff.

The error message you are getting is most often associated with two problems, (1) the CDROM has not had the chance to spin-up yet, or (2) the CDROM in the drive does not have a valid filesystem on it. To solve (1), wait until your activity light on the CDROM comes on and then turns back off when the disk is loaded before running the command. For (2), this _is_ a CD with an ISO9660 filesystem on it, right? Not an audio CD? Try another CD with a filesystem. -- Crist J.

By using Microsoft's client side service providers, a FreeBSD system with a POP or IMAP server can seamlessly transport MAPI-structured email. At one time the scheduling software didn't need server support but instead relied on specially formatted email messages. All of the MAPI forms worked this way too. (In the three years I've been boycotting Microsoft this might have changed) MAPI is defined in terms of OLE object interfaces, on both the server and client sides. Internally, Exchange Server is (was?) an X.400 mail engine using OLE Structured Storage for its data repositories. From my experience it was all pretty fragile and didn't scale nearly as well as Microsoft claimed. Thankfully, there isn't an OLE implementation for FreeBSD. :-) Cheers, Jerry Hicks jhix@mindspring.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 13 18:59: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.pit.adelphia.net (alpha.pit.adelphia.net [24.48.44.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9FEBB14EF6 for ; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 18:59:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from evstiounin@adelphia.net) Received: from evstiouninadelphia (surf15-169.pit.adelphia.net [24.48.53.169]) by alpha.pit.adelphia.net (8.9.2/8.9.2) with SMTP id VAA07894; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:58:50 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <010701bf5e3b$a6dac5e0$a9353018@evstiouninadelphia.net.pit.adelphia.net> From: "Mikhail Evstiounin" To: Cc: Subject: Re: Volatile variables Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 22:01:27 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----Original Message----- From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Mikhail Evstiounin > >As I said in a previous posting a few minutes ago, Oliver did not use >that example of mine for supporting his notion of `volatile'.

It's possible, that this is a different understanding of vilotile. Because, I still do not agree with your usage/understanding - I am still thinking that it should be used, if value of a vriable could be changed in ways not defined by the language. And sighandler will change it within a way defined by the language - assigments. But usage of a global resource from different async processes requires synchronization and this is a totally different problem. Take a look at two threads running simultineosly on two CPU, sharing an access to the same variable - vilotile is not going to help you. In my mind, sighandler is async process, but it accesses variable in a way defined by the language. From my point of view, two different problems were mixed and, as a result, totally wrong way to solve them were chosen. I was trying to emphasize only this part, but didn't myself clear enough.

If you have a local password, then it works fine, otherwise it fails... Has anyone ever gotten this to work, and if so, am I missing something in the compile process? (missed a variable, etc?)

I know it was recently moved to the Alpha platform, but what about the PowerPC Open Platform? (IBM just released the specs for a PPC board, with standard components. It is said that some hardware manufacturers are going to give it a go.) A system built on this platform could use multiple G4 processors--and my understanding of the architecture is that it offers SMP support superior to what Intel or AMD offer. The LinuxPPC crowd has mentioned their interest, and I'd just like to know if the idea of a port of FreeBSD has been floated. I'd rather run it than Linux, but I love that hardware... Back on the ranch... I should send out thanks to those who make this list so interesting and useful. I'm relatively new to Unix/Linux and just last weekend I was able to get NAT and ipfw running on my (new) FreeBSD box. It handles my cable modem - LAN setup. It's like a little miracle, and it's due in large part to what I've seen on this list.

I ran into similar problems when I first got started with FreeBSD about a year ago... Most likey, what's triggering your dial-ups are DNS lookups. You can stop the majority of seemingly-random DNS lookups, without having to run a DNS server, by making sure all the computers on your LAN are listed in /etc/hosts. If you are running xntpd, you can stop it from causing a dialout using ppp's filters: # Prevent NTP (123) from causing a dialup: set filter dial 0 deny udp src eq 123 set filter dial 1 deny udp dst eq 123 set filter dial 2 permit 0 0 Take a look at inetd.conf and see what other servers are enabled, and do a 'ps aux' to see what daemons are running. You may find other programs which also from time-to-time do DNS lookups (sendmail is notorious for this). Try the /etc/hosts thing...hopefully, it will make your life a little quieter! --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!

I'm not sure what real progress, if any, has been made toward that goal yet. It's interesting to note that two RTOS's are already using large portions of the FreeBSD networking code on PowerPC and Apple is using some FreeBSD derived code within their OS-X project, also on PowerPC. Check out the news page at www.freebsd.org for more hints from Apple. I expect the greatest difficulties will be dealing with VM issues.

I went to disklable and, behold! no mount point assignments. I went thru the upgrade as far as saving the kernel to /kernel.prev and then changed to vc4 where I successfully changed roots passwd, quit the upgrade, rebooted and subsequently have access to the system again. I did need to specify 'boot /kernel.prev' to boot the system, however, the mistake I made was assuming I knew that the error could only be refering to one thing. Lesson learned.

CD-RW is ATAPI, HP CD-Writer Plus 8210i I noticed while browsing through the wormcontrol(8) man page that the 'prepdisk' command takes arguments 'single' or 'double', meaning that you can only write disks in 1x and 2x speeds.

(please don't laugh when you read this.) I am beginning the long process of ridding myself of Microsoft products and at the core of my systems I plan to implement 100% FreeBSD. I have been unable to find any books related to FreeBSD. I know it is suppose to be a port of the original UCB UNIX but does that mean that I can get a book on UNIX administration and apply that knowledge to a FreeBSD OS running on a quad zeon or PIII server with Level 5 Raid? Also, I have been doing quite a bit of research and have decided on the following setup for a large database driven web service that we will be undertaking and releasing under the General Public License. I would like any input you have on the following core system I plan to implement. OS: FreeBSD Web Server: Apache Jserv & mod_perl & possibly (EMBPerl) Database: Oracle 8.X DNS: FreeBSD running BIND Also, there is no User Group in Washington D.C. and we would like to start one. I am currently an active member with several user groups involved with the Windows NT technology including NTServer, Visual Interdev User Group (WAVI), and MSSQL User group. I Know of several dozen individuals that are currently looking for alternatives to Micro$oft system. Please let me know what I need to do to establish the Washington D.C. FreeBSD user group.

The Seagate (Barracuda 9) disk is specced to up to 40 Mbytes/sec Max sync. SCSI transfer rate. But whatever tests I run (copying large files to and fro, dd from disk to /dev/null for example) the actual speed is never more than around 0.5 MB/s according to 'systat -io 1' or 'systat -vm 1'. Is there a knob to turn to speed it up or is this a bottleneck due to the processor? Cheers, Micke PS.

I really require some help with the following ...... Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. On the 7 Jan' 2000 our firewall started giving some problems, rather bad ones. We use user authorization to give students and Lecturers access to the internet. Suddenly without any errors the authentication didn't work anymore. If you Authenticate, or telnet to port 259 the firewall requests that you enter a username and password. In the past when you logged on via telnet:259 you were given the following menu: 1. Standard Sign-On 2. Sign-off 3. Specific Sign-on This no longer happens ..... this is what I get: Trying 155.238.4.1... Connected to ctfw.ctech.ac.za. Escape character is '^]'. User: 7105 Firewall-1 password: ***** User 7105 authenticated by Firewall-1 authentication Connection closed by foreign host. It says that you have authentication, but no traffic is allowed through. If you Authenticate using you web browser it just replies that "The document contains no data" We are running Squid on port 3128. At the moment no one can access the internet. I have gone through the manuals and everything seems perfect, so I am stuck. I am looking into reinstalling the entire system if I don't get it to work soon, as the Technikon is starting up on Monday. Please email me if you have any information that could even be remotely useful.

I don't think so. :-) Consider grabbing a copy of Greg Lehey's book, The Complete FreeBSD. Otherwise, you can grab the FreeBSD documentation sources once you have FreeBSD installed. From there, you'll be able to print them out. Ciao, Sheldon.

First we have a Class F network, 212.209.55.80/28. Second, I want to use a 192.168. class C net for our internal LAN. I have a old box with two NIC's (ep0 and ep1) running FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT (in the meantime for 4.0-RELEASE). The gateway box should run natd I guess so the internal LAN (192.168.) could connect to the internet. So far I have set it up like this: ep0 (public interface, connects to the internet) ep1 (internal interface, connects to our internal LAN) some things from /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_ep0="inet 212.209.55.82 netmask 255.255.255.240" ifconfig_ep1="inet 192.168.100.10 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="212.209.55.81" (our cisco router that handles the internet connection) gateway_enable="YES" # firewall firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="open" # natd natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="ep0" a kernel compiled with options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT I guess I need to set up some static routing tables, but I have no clue on that yet.

RedHat have far from dropped KDE from their installation. The latest 6.1 installation allows a 'KDE' desktop to be installed rather that 6.0's Gnome one and without pissing around for 2 hours with switchdesk. There also appears to be a _huge_ amount of commercial backing for KDE from various sources. Gnome looks nice, but it's hardly stable and not very practical. I personally dumped both of them for the raw speed and power of WindowMaker. So it doesnt have a native file manager? So it doesnt have feature x and y. It has so many more good points:- 1. It's rock solid 2. It'll run speedily on a P90 3. It's easy to use - not overcomplicated like the win9x/2000/gnome desktop 4. It's simpler than most and therefore less bugs. 5. It's very customisable. This is my view, but I'd recommend KDE as a good second and possible a first for new UNIX users. I wouldnt recommend RedHat though for anyone. It's got more holes than a seive. Regarding standards, KDE has adopted it's own 'standard' known as KOM/OpenParts (I think). Gnome uses an existing standard but it's a 'commercial style' one which I dont like. I compare it to Microsoft DCOM which is foul and should be burned at the stake :o) Chris Smith Raytheon Systems Limited To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 4: 7:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fw.wintelcom.net (ns1.wintelcom.net [209.1.153.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 09DDE15214 for ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 04:07:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bright@fw.wintelcom.net) Received: (from bright@localhost) by fw.wintelcom.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id EAA13865; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 04:30:05 -0800 (PST) Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 04:30:05 -0800 From: Alfred Perlstein To: James A Wilde Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Which X-window to choose?

However i'm typing this from my Windowmaker desktop because I really just wanted something small and non-obtrusive, however I think once KDE 2.0 comes out I'll be switching back, I really haven't seen many useful apps running on gnome where KDE has koffice and much more. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 4:20:11 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hermes.atrada.de (hermes.atrada.de [212.118.32.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 9171C155EE for ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 04:20:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from maret@atrada.de) Received: from erlangen01.atrada.de by hermes.atrada.de via smtpd (for hub.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.18]) with SMTP; 14 Jan 2000 12:20:04 UT Received: (private information removed) Message-ID: <58A002A02C5ED311812E0050044517F00D2486@erlangen01.atrada.de> From: Alexander Maret To: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: Amanda Problems 2.

We are trying to use it on non-Compaq server (Intel LB440GX 2U server system, with Intel L440GX+ motherboard). The problem we encountered is that we can't setup RAID array. I.e., FreeBSD (and Linux) drivers sees controller correctly, but all Compaq utilities, that we were able to find, are either NT based (haven't tried them yet) or complain that motherboard doesn't support some function (ecc error checking on pci bus or something like that). So, does anybody know how to setup a RAID array on this controller? Or is that controller dead thing on non-compaq servers?

I already did this and didn't get a response. That's why I hope to get answers from freebsd-questions. But meanwhile I solved a part of my problem as described in my 2. posting. Unfortunately I now get an exit status of 0x100 from amandad. As I searched arround in the mail archives I saw that many people have problems with daemons exiting 0x100 when they are started by inetd. Perhaps this is not a amandad problem but a problem of inetd.

To: FreeBSD-Question MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear all FreeBSD-Questions members, I setup 2 Free BSD Server, one is the Primary Server, one is the Secondary Server. I would like to backup the user account from Primary Server to Secondary Server automatically when any change (passwd, user, group...) on Primary Server happens. Is there any way to do that automatically ? Now, I do it by hand by copy all the changed files (passwd, groups, aliases) from Primary Server to Secondary Server, change mode, and run the vipw command for confirming on Secondary Server, but nothing update. I do not know why. If any one know this problem, please help me. It's very urgent. We are using Free BSD version 2.2.7 and we would like to mirror all the services so the Primary Sever and the Secondary is very similar. Please help me step by step if you could. Thank you advance very much, I am looking forward your reply, Nguyen Manh Tho. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

If anyone knows why or how to fix it, I would appricate any help that you can provide. from, Matthew Enger menger@dhs.org SERVER: /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: allow users mengerp jchanp nsherinp set timeout 0 accept dns ttyd2: set ifaddr 152.101.128.241 152.101.128.242 255.255.255.255 enable proxy ttyd3: set ifaddr 152.101.128.241 152.101.128.243 255.255.255.255 enable proxy pap: enable pap set ifaddr 152.101.128.241 152.101.128.243-152.101.128.250 enable proxy enable passwdauth /etc/rc.conf # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf # please make all changes to this file. # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # ifconfig_fxp0="inet 152.101.128.99 broadcast 152.101.128.128 netmask 255.255.255.128" ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 152.101.128.100 broadcast 152.101.128.128 netmask 255.255.255.128" ifconfig_fxp0_alias1="inet 152.101.128.101 broadcast 152.101.128.128 netmask 255.255.255.128" ifconfig_fxp0_alias2="inet 152.101.128.102 broadcast 152.101.128.128 netmask 255.255.255.128" ifconfig_fxp0_alias3="inet 152.101.128.241 broadcast 152.101.128.255 netmask 255.255.255.240" defaultrouter="152.101.128.126" network_interfaces="fxp0 lo0" hostname="home.enger.org" # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_enable="YES" # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Moused_enable="YES" # -- XNTPD - time -- # xntpd_enable="YES" xntpd_flags="" # -- BIND -- # named_enable="YES" # -- SENDMAIL -- # sendmail_enable="NO" # -- NFS -- # nfs_client_enable="YES" # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # moused_enable="YES" # -- PPP -- # gateway_enable=YES router_enable=NO forward_sourceroute=YES /etc/ppp/ppp-dialup (script which is the shell of the ppp users) #!/bin/sh IDENT=`echo $0 | sed -e 's/^.*-\(.*\)$/\1/'` CALLADAS="$IDENT" TTY=`tty` if [ x$IDENT = xdialup ]; then IDENT=`basename $TTY` fi echo "PPP for $CALLADAS on $TTY" echo "Starting PPP for $IDENT" exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct $IDENT CLIENT: /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command set speed 115200 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set timeout 0 set ifaddr 0 0 add default HISADDR enable dns KGV: set phone 2711-9201,, set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: mengerp word: PASSWORDHERE" set timeout 0 set ifaddr 0 0 add default HISADDR disable chap disable pap rc.conf # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf # please make all changes to this file. # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # ifconfig_ed1="inet 152.101.128.238 broadcast 152.101.128.239 netmask 255.255.255.240" network_interfaces="ed1 auto" hostname="wombat.enger.org" moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_enable="YES" gateway_enable=YES router_enable=NO forward_sourceroute=YES accept_sourceroute=YES To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 6:19: 3 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from zmamail02.zma.compaq.com (zmamail02.zma.compaq.com [161.114.64.102]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B2A3714D42; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 06:18:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from michael.waite@compaq.com) Received: by zmamail02.zma.compaq.com (Postfix, from userid 12345) id AAAAC329; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 09:18:53 -0500 (EST) Received: from exctay-gh02.tay.cpqcorp.net (exctay-gh02.tay.cpqcorp.net [16.103.129.52]) by zmamail02.zma.compaq.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8DD913D5; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 09:18:53 -0500 (EST) Received: by exctay-gh02.tay.cpqcorp.net with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 09:18:53 -0500 Message-ID: <212CC57E84B8D111AD780000F84AA04906963F27@mroexc2.tay.dec.com> From: "Waite, Michael" To: 'Gediminas Vilutis' , freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: RE: Compaq Smart Array 221 on non Compaq servers Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 09:18:47 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG You setup the controller with the configuration utility that came with the controller.

We are trying to use it on non-Compaq server (Intel LB440GX 2U server system, with Intel L440GX+ motherboard). The problem we encountered is that we can't setup RAID array. I.e., FreeBSD (and Linux) drivers sees controller correctly, but all Compaq utilities, that we were able to find, are either NT based (haven't tried them yet) or complain that motherboard doesn't support some function (ecc error checking on pci bus or something like that). So, does anybody know how to setup a RAID array on this controller? Or is that controller dead thing on non-compaq servers?

I've rooted round and searched the site and can't find a lead to my problem. My setup is a greenhorn user on an old AST 486 at home. The machine is dedicated to FreeBSD v.3.1. The setup is not perfect but it works. In order to avoid having to change keyboard, monitor and mouse between two machines, which always freezes the keyboard on the machine switched to, I want to connect to my FBSD computer via SSH2 from my NT computer. I surfed to the FreeBSD site and tanked home the appropriate directories (rsaref, ssh and ssh2) and began the install with rsaref which apparently proceeded satisfactorily. ssh bombed out, however, and since I had previously installed both ssh and ssh2 from the Finnish site successfully on another 3.1 machine at work, I decided to try again with those. Tanked home the appropriate tars, ran ./configure make make install for ssh-1.2.27 without problems. Tried the same thing with ssh-2.0.13 and the make install bombed out with the message in the subject line. A full log of the make install appears below. I saw that Makefile includes a line including the magic number 04711 so I changed it to 4711 and another file, Makefile.am also included it. The documentation refers to a Makefile.am.raw which should be edited but I couldn't find that. The reason for this change is that I see from man chmod that the mode should be a maximum of 4 digits. I repeated the whole install procedure for ssh-2.0.13, including ./configure and make but with the same result. I'm logged in as james and su'd to root via telnet. Unfortunately I am not a c programmer and whilst I think that the make system is a fantastic tool, I obviously can't hack my way around in it TIA for any help.

Whilst I'm writing to the list, I thought I'd better ask this as well, since at the moment I'm using good old Outlook Express as my mail client and I know how popular that is here :) with its penchant for forming one line per paragraph, irrespective of how one configures it. It's a hundred years since I used a UNIX mail client in anger, and I wasn't very angry even then. The two I remember the names of are elm and pine but which was which and how comfortable they were to use I can't remember. Without wishing to start a religious war, is there any clear recommendation on which mail client a greenhorn should choose first. I haven't got the X system fully configured yet so we're talking cli here.

FreeBSD is the ONLY OS on the system. My server has a DPT Raid controller with 6 2GB drives in a RAID 5 configuration. I've checked the boot sector after the install and there is only one partition identified. This is the partition entry: 80 01 01 00 A5 35 E0 FF 20 00 00 00 A0 5B 75 02 However, when I read the cyl/head/sector that the partition is looking at, the OS boot software is not present. Do you have any idea where the OS is being copied or what I might be doing wrong?

A word of caution -- I don't think PINE and elm store messages in a compatible way, so be careful about trying to use _both_ programs on the _same_ mail folders. Good luck! Sheldon.

Just wondering if anyone knows what could be causing this. What do these 5-6 IP's have in common? Can you ping them? Do they reply with a working SMTP server when you telnet to their port 25? If you find out that they take an absurdly long time to reply, then that's the reason you're seeing all those sendmail's instances trying these hosts. It seems that the hosts take longer to reply than it takes for your sendmail to rerun the queue, or something like that. Perhaps you could limit the number of active sendmail processes, so that those hosts staying down will not bring you down with a zillion of sendmail's running on your machine :-) Look at /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README the explanations of the options: confMAX_DAEMON_CHILDREN confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE Ciao. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

If you have two interfaces, say lo0 (127.0.0.1/8) and ep0 (10.0.0.1/8) then when you try to connect to a host in the 10.0.0.0/8 network, the source address in the packet will be 10.0.0.1, and your rules will filter it out. To allow outgoing tcp connections from an interface do not drop all packets from it. There are some good examples in the rc.firewall script that will help you build the rules. The general case of allowing only incoming TCP connections on an interface is roughly: # pass packets of previously established connections add pass tcp from any to any via IFACE established # allow setup of outgoing TCP connections add pass tcp from any to any out xmit IFACE setup or something along these lines.

It's just windblows braindamage, it likes to send netbios IP traffic to really strange IP addresses using really strange source addresses some times.

I certainly didn't mean to inquire about the name of the executable (of course, it's ftp ;^). But, there are many ftp clients out there, and I liked the particular one that comes stock with FreeBSD. What I was asking for is some identifier of the ftp client that FreeBSD has for default one.

You'll find that this process isn't nearly as torturous as you may anticipate. I shed Microsoft 100% about three years ago and it's been the best move of my career. Here are a couple of books I recommend to newcomers: "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey ISBN: 1-571-76246-9 "The Design And Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System" by Marshall Kirk McKusick, Keith Bostic, Michael J. Karels and John S. Quarterman ISBN: 0-201-54979-4 The first is more of a usage guide and specific to FreeBSD, the second is a textbook format, suitable for a university course on operating systems and covers the architectural design and compromises taken during the implementation of BSD4.4 Don't forget the FreeBSD handbook itself - Especially learn what the ports subsystem is and how to use CVSup to keep your system updated. Those are perhaps the first two things a newcomer should learn. Truly FreeBSD is a continuously evolving system. Some of the very best information available is found in the mail archives and other online resources. Make sure to cover the handbook, the newbies pages, and the links to other FreeBSD sites such as the FreeBSD Diary. Welcome!

Actually, in /usr/include/machine/signal.h of FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE, the definition of sig_atomic_t is `int', as in: typedef int sig_atomic_t; I did try to change `volatile int k' to `volatile sig_atomic_t k' and the generated code did not have any difference from before. The same sequence of `movl $0,k ; movl $1,k' statements was produced. Since in FreeBSD, the sizeof(int) returns 4, and the system runs on a machine with 32-bits, the size of a word is apparently the largest value that can be atomically set from the underlying hardware.

Not sure, starting from 8087, and looking at PIII - you can operate with 64 bits integer. It's very easy to implement 64 bit integer arithmetics using either FPU only, or FPU/double word combination and adc/subc commands. Implicit conclusion - you do have underlying hardware to set 64 bit value. > > Ciao. > > -- > Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

I was doing fresh and clean setup of FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE installation on one of my friends' box (that's over a month already from when I first heard about FreeBSD :-) I've done the following: wget -b -t 0 -r ftp://ftp1.ru.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE (NOTE: I don't have any of packages nor ports/distfiles -- no even such dir -- symlink ~packages after 'wget' in the install dir points nowhere) to get local copy on my fBSD box (I will install via ftp from there). Then, got kern.flp from /floppies and mfsroot.flp from /floppies/updates, booted fine; and everything went all right except that when I tried to commit changes, it said that "unable to install the following:" and empty list (just the warning window and the message, but not stating what exactly it was unable to install -- that seems strange to me already). I said "retry" and it was fetching comapt22 tarz (the progress indicator went on), with the same message at the end (something like "cannot install what you want 'cause it appears not to be on the installation media you've selected"). I've checked all md5 sums and file/dir permissions -- all four compat dirs (11, 20, 21, 22) seem to be ok where they belong; I'm installing all four of them and 22 is the only one that doesn't work. Am I missing something silly here? First, I thought that maybe I need something except compat22.?? files (i.e. some packages I don't have), but that would be strange -- I can have all other compat's, and for some weird reason, cannot have comapt22. Ideas? Any information will be greatly appreciated. When I was installing 3.3-RELEASE some time ago, I didn't have any problems with compat22 (I did have all the packages though). ,--------------------------------------, ____ ___ _______ | Alexey N.

Essentially, what I would like to do is have nat translate from private to public IPs, use ipfw for firewall rules and allow for IP redirection into the LAN for some services such as SMTP. So far, I have nat working and have firewall rules setup accordingly to block unwanted incoming traffic. Where my difficulties arise are with (I believe) ipfw. Here's my setup: In the rc.conf, I have setup an IP bound to de0 and an alias IP for SMTP traffic: ifconfig_de0="inet 139.142.250.29 netmask 255.255.255.192" ifconfig_de0_alias0="inet 139.142.250.39 netmask 255.255.255.255" ifconfig_de1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" In the rc.firewall I have these rules relating to redirection: add 100 ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via de0 # Pass everything to natd Further down the ruleset I then have: ipfw add 7000 allow tcp from any to any 25 in via 139.142.250.39 setup # Allow tcp traffic in on port 25 from 139.142.250.39 I then start natd with: natd -redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.2:25 139.142.250.39:25 In my opinion, this appears to be correct, but obviously it is not. I feel the problem is in the firewall rules. I compiled the kernel with 'option IPFIREWALL_FORWARD', but I'm not sure how it will work with nat. The rule I have in mind is: ipfw add 200 fwd 192.168.1.2 all from de0 to de1 My thinking is this is what natd is supposed to do. I know something is missing, I just don't know what. Any help that can be offered would be very much appreciated. I can include more from my conf files if necessary. Thanks for the help.

I've noticed that the Adaptec 2940UW seems to be a fairly slow card, at this point I'm pulling every single one I come across and replacing with Tekram cards. The biggest differance I saw was doing a drive mirror under Novell 3.12 a couple of weeks ago. Dual 2940s with their own seperate drives took 3 hours. Using the exact same model drive and two of the Tekram cards took under 20 minutes. Under FreeBSD I've seen similar performance. :( Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 14:56:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix, from userid 538) id 1B0B514E47; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 14:56:50 -0800 (PST) To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Majordomo results Reply-To: Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG Message-Id: <20000114225650.1B0B514E47@hub.freebsd.org> Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 14:56:50 -0800 (PST) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -- >>>> This message is in MIME format.

This is version 1.94.4 of Majordomo. If you're familiar with mail servers, an advanced user's summary of Majordomo's commands appears at the end of this message. Majordomo is an automated system which allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe to mailing lists, and to retrieve files from list archives. You can interact with the Majordomo software by sending it commands in the body of mail messages addressed to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG". Please do not put your commands on the subject line; Majordomo does not process commands in the subject line. You may put multiple Majordomo commands in the same mail message. Put each command on a line by itself. If you use a "signature block" at the end of your mail, Majordomo may mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will then receive spurious error messages. To keep this from happening, either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature, or put a line with just the word end on it in the same place. This will stop the Majordomo software from processing your signature as bad commands. Here are some of the things you can do using Majordomo: I. FINDING OUT WHICH LISTS ARE ON THIS SYSTEM To get a list of publicly-available mailing lists on this system, put the following line in the body of your mail message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: lists Each line will contain the name of a mailing list and a brief description of the list. To get more information about a particular list, use the "info" command, supplying the name of the list. For example, if the name of the list about which you wish information is "demo-list", you would put the line info demo-list in the body of the mail message. II. SUBSCRIBING TO A LIST Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to have it add you to the list, so you can begin receiving mailings. To receive list mail at the address from which you're sending your mail, simply say "subscribe" followed by the list's name: subscribe demo-list If for some reason you wish to have the mailings go to a different address (a friend's address, a specific other system on which you have an account, or an address which is more correct than the one that automatically appears in the "From:" header on the mail you send), you would add that address to the command. For instance, if you're sending a request from your work account, but wish to receive "demo-list" mail at your personal account (for which we will use "jqpublic@my-isp.com" as an example), you'd put the line subscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com in the mail message body. Based on configuration decisions made by the list owners, you may be added to the mailing list automatically. You may also receive notification that an authorization key is required for subscription. Another message will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not be the same as yours) containing the key, and directing the user to send a command found in that message back to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. (This can be a bit of extra hassle, but it helps keep you from being swamped in extra email by someone who forged requests from your address.) You may also get a message that your subscription is being forwarded to the list owner for approval; some lists have waiting lists, or policies about who may subscribe. If your request is forwarded for approval, the list owner should contact you soon after your request. Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing list policies and features. Save this message for future reference; it will also contain exact directions for unsubscribing. If you lose the intro mail and would like another copy of the policies, send this message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: intro demo-list (substituting, of course, the real name of your list for "demo-list"). III. UNSUBSCRIBING FROM MAILING LISTS Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be used to remove your address from the list. However, in most cases, you may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name: unsubscribe demo-list (This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your address is shown in your mail.) To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending the request, give that address in the command: unsubscribe demo-list jqpublic@my-isp.com In either of these cases, you can tell Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG to remove the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*" in place of the list name: unsubscribe * unsubscribe * jqpublic@my-isp.com IV. FINDING THE LISTS TO WHICH AN ADDRESS IS SUBSCRIBED To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG: which You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying the text for which Majordomo should search. For instance, to find which users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the command which my-isp.com Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which" command, considering it a privacy violation. V. FINDING OUT WHO'S SUBSCRIBED TO A LIST To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the "who" command, followed by the name of the list: who demo-list Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the "who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy violation. VI. RETRIEVING FILES FROM A LIST'S ARCHIVES Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list. These may include: - back issues of the list - help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list - daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index" command: index demo-list If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename. For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.9611" (presumably the messages posted to the list in November 1996), you would put the lines get demo-list profile.form get demo-list demo-list.9611 in your mail to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. VII. GETTING MORE HELP To contact a human site manager, send mail to postmaster@FreeBSD.ORG. To get another copy of this help message, send mail to Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG with a line saying help in the message body. VIII. COMMAND SUMMARY FOR ADVANCED USERS In the description below items contained in []'s are optional. When providing the item, do not include the []'s around it. Items in angle brackets, such as
, are meta-symbols that should be replaced by appropriate text without the angle brackets. It understands the following commands: subscribe [
] Subscribe yourself (or
if specified) to the named . unsubscribe [
] Unsubscribe yourself (or
if specified) from the named . "unsubscribe *" will remove you (or

Non-subscribers may not be able to retrieve this. lists Show the lists served by this Majordomo server. help Retrieve this message. end Stop processing commands (useful if your mailer adds a signature). Commands should be sent in the body of an email message to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG". Multiple commands can be processed provided each occurs on a separate line. Commands in the "Subject:" line are NOT processed. If you have any questions or problems, please contact "Majordomo-Owner@FreeBSD.ORG".

I would like to send requests for foo.com to servers foo-a and foo-b, requests for bar.com to two other servers, bar-a and bar-b, and requests for www.com to servers www-a and www-b. I know the reverse proxy can be set up to send static pages to one set of servers and cgi to another set of servers, but can I set up multiple sets of servers for different hosts? I do not plan to have virtual hosts running on foo-a and foo-b, so the virtual hosts would be used in the proxy server. If this works without virtual hosts running on the -a and -b servers, would it work WITH virtual hosts on the -a and -b servers? This would make for a really interesting httpd.conf!!

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 breaking 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, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. 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, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing 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 almost 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. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. 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. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. 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 out 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 don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. 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 follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: 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 you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. 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?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. 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. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. 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. 11. 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. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition 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-3.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-3.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-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) 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 second edition 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.

This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book 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. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).

These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes 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 netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and 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 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. 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 Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. 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 Page 9 Install ports when installing the system 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. 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: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file 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. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. 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 Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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): === 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 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system 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: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 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 15 Install ports when installing the system 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: 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 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. 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 17 Install ports when installing the system 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 problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 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 Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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: 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 19 Install ports when installing the system 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 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 Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system 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%.

Maybe some way to have the compiler mangle these symbol values to not look like integers? Seems more like gdb just getting confused about something... Short of that, some kind of explanation for this behavior might be some sorry comfort. thanks! k. -- Ken Marx, kmarx@bigshed.com We all agree that we must stand pat and manage the care and feeding of the middle-ware. - http://cgi.bigshed.com/~kmarx/cgi-bin/speak.cgi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 17:29:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from liquidrain.com (liquidrain.com [207.174.169.145]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9FC7B14D9A for ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 17:29:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from scallic1@tampabay.rr.com) Received: from 242838hfc25.tampabay.rr.com ([24.28.38.25] helo=ryan) by liquidrain.com with smtp (Exim 3.12 #1) id 129I3L-0003bA-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 18:30:55 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.20000114205337.00795e70@mail.liquidrain.com> X-Sender: testtube@mail.liquidrain.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 20:53:37 -0800 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Ryan Callicoat Subject: CD Rom Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hi i just recently bought the FreeBSD power pack 3.3 and during install it asks how i want to install it and i choose cd rom and it says there is no cdrom devices yet i can use any other distrib fine. its iam gussing a generic atapi 32x cdrom works great how can i make it install from cdrom i mean i have 10 cds here i would like to install anyhelp would be greatly apreaciated To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 14 17:35:43 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from csimo02.mx.cs.com (csimo02.mx.cs.com [205.188.156.53]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A523C151C0 for ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 17:35:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from LittleDevil22503@cs.com) Received: from LittleDevil22503@cs.com by csimo02.mx.cs.com (mail_out_v24.6.) id n.4a.8fa321 (3316) for ; Fri, 14 Jan 2000 20:35:31 -0500 (EST) From: LittleDevil22503@cs.com Message-ID: <4a.8fa321.25b128e3@cs.com> Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 20:35:31 EST Subject: Hello To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: CompuServe 2000 32-bit sub 67 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello I'm 15 years old and I own my own website and I will probably get a lot of people and I was just wondering if I could put the picture of that devil on my site.

If you want to run FreeBSD it will be instead of win98. You can't run them both at the same time. However, you can have both installed on your hard drive and when you start your machine, you can choose which one you would like to boot. Try it out and see. That is my suggestion.

Most problems of this sort are caused by the CDROM being on the secondary IDE channel but not as a master device. Some systems will recognize singular secondary slave but FreeBSD will not.

Restore command starts to work fine with this tape now. But other tapes with earlier backups still not working. I try to read these 4 tapes under other Linux box using other HP Travan 4000s but 3 tapes can't be read with the same error. Tape #4 with the today's backup has been read fine. Why I can't read 3 tapes with backups that were written 21 December 1999 and earlier?

(In truth, I'm fiddling with 3.3 while - impatiently - waiting for 3.4 to arrive, but anyway...) I think something's wrong with the screen termcap - it just isn't using the the bottom line of the xterm for the info lines (e.g. C-a w). Instead the info appears at the current cursor position and does not disappear (it wasn't even inverse video). This is 'screen' as installed from the 3.3 CD. I've checked that /etc/termcap holds an entry for TERM=screen (it does) and that this is the latest screen (it is). Beyond that, termcap is almost rot13 to me. Any suggestions?

I had an idea at the back of my mind that I had seen similar behaviour before. The chmod command does not appear to work at all on this machine. I have gone in as root on the console and typed the following: mkdir test chown james test chmod 04711 test chmod 4711 test chmod 711 test chown root test chmod 04711 test chmod 4711 test chmod 711 test chmod 644 test I used 644 in the last case since this is the example in 'man chmod'. In every case of the chmod command I get: 'chmod: invalid file mode: nnnnn' - where nnnnn is the 3-5 digit number I have listed above. So my problem is not with installing ssh2 but with the chmod command. Does anyone have any suggestions?

If yes, Could I still copy the passwd file from Linux to Free BSD and will it's till work well ? Another questions is about new format password on Free BSD. I found this text from the FreeBSD handbook: " The password file format has changed since 4.3BSD. The following awk stdin script can be used to convert your old-style password file into a new style password file. The additional fields ``class'', ``change'' and ``expire'' are added, but are turned off by default. These fields can then be set using vipw(8) or pw(8)". I am still using Free BSD version 2.2.7 so I do not know how to set these fields using vipw(8) or pw(8). I also looking on the man 8 vipw but can find the information I need. If any one know that, please instruct me step by step how to do. Thanks in advance, Nguyen Manh Tho __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I used Pine and some mailers under (X)Emacs previously. I liked VM under XEmacs because of its easy customizeability. But I have large mail boxes and VM becomes a real sloth with them. The single drawback of mutt, it runs an external editor for composing mail. But with vim or emacsclient/gnuclient as editors, it's almost unnoticeable. -- Mojahed To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jan 15 4:51:23 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.twave.net (twave.net [206.100.228.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 454E914D4E for ; Sat, 15 Jan 2000 04:51:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brameld@twave.net) Received: from [208.219.234.58] by mail.twave.net (NTMail 3.03.0018/1.abwg) with ESMTP id la990195 for ; Sat, 15 Jan 2000 07:49:38 -0500 Message-ID: <38806D95.9F944B61@twave.net> Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2000 07:52:38 -0500 From: Walter Brameld X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Ronny Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Windows 98 References: <387FC654.56CC6419@softdisk.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ronny wrote: > I am running windows 98.

'98 does some really funky things, and actually seems to be more unstable than 95. Which of course is one of the reasons I'm trying to learn FreeBSD. "Windows was not shut down correctly.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi. I have an old machine of mine on which I run FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE: it's a 486/VLB based PC with a non PnP BIOS. I have a PnP ISDN card (ELSA QuickStep 1000pro) which I'd like to use on this box, so I put > device isic0 at isa? port ? net irq ? vector isicintr in my kernel config file and, since by default the card is disabled, I issue > pnp 1 0 os irq0 15 port0 0x160 enable in userconfig. I obviously put > controller pnp0 > options USERCONFIG in the kernel config file. From dmesg's output: > Probing for PnP devices: > CSN 1 Vendor ID: ELS0133 [0x33019315] Serial 0x00011961 Comp ID: @@@0000 [0x00000000] > isic0: ELSA QuickStep 1000pro (ISA) > isic0: ISAC 2085 Version A1/A2 or 2086/2186 Version 1.1 (IOM-2) (Addr=0x160) > isic0: HSCX 82525 or 21525 Version 2.1 (AddrA=0x10160, AddrB=0x20160) > isic0 (i4b_pnp sn 0x00011961) at 0x160 irq 15 flags 0xd on isa apparently everything is fine. However isdnd is unable to talk to the card, with messages that the i4b FAQ classify as either PnP problems or IRQ conflicts. Is there something I can do to verify that the card has actually put itself on the specified ports and IRQ? Is there anything else I can try? The FAQ suggests to play with my BIOS settings, but of course I have no BIOS settings that can affect PnP devices. Would upgrading to 4.0 (once it's released) possibly help? Bye & Thanks av.

So far, i use to boot with LILO, the Linux Loader. Now, i want to discard Linux and i'm planning to use its partition to test other *BSD (OpenBsd, then NetBSD) : so i want to replace the current MBR of my first HD to remove LILO and use FreeBSD Booteasy instead. My lilo.conf is : boot=/dev/hda install=/boot/boot.b append = "mem=96M" map=/boot/map vga=normal delay=20 prompt other=/dev/hda2 label=bsd table=/dev/hda image=/vmlinuz label=linux root=/dev/hdb1 read-only More generally, what is the best way to tell to FBSD's booteasy i want more entries ? If i replace Linux with OpenBSD, then add a disk for my son's games, i would use booteasy in order to have at boot time : F1 : FreeBSD F2 : OpenBSD F3 : Windows Thanks in advance. -- --------------------------------------------------------- Éric Jacoboni « No sport, cigars! » (W.

I'd like to put it in a new partition on my Win PC separate (or course) from all others, and would rather not try to fool around with the MBR, boot sectors, and such for startup. I believe I've heard this is one of the options that's available when doing the installation, but wasn't sure. And that when it's done, I believe you can give at the boot: prompt something like wd(2,c)/kernel to give it directions to the BSD partition. Is this the way it works?? I can do this kind of a thing with RH Linux 5.2, but wanted to confirm that it's also an option with FreeBSD.

FBSD complaints about a dirty /tmp filesystem (/mnt is not on a separate fs) so / cannot be mounted R/W and the system boot in single mode. If i do a 'mount -f -orw /' then a ^D, the system goes in normal mode and i can work as usual... Obviously, i've done multiple fsck on /, but the pb remains...

I'm assuming its already in the kernel and I just need to set the firewall type in /etc/rc.conf. It looks like /etc/rc.firewall wants a firewall_type defined.

I'm afraid you are wrong. The standard does NOT specify any relation between the size of an int and the size of a pointer. It never did, not even in old K&R days, and neither does C9x. If you think otherwise, please quote from the standard. A program written in C (or claimed to be written in C) must never assume that a pointer can fit in an int. Otherwise it is just plain broken. > GCC team is very accurate - if they know that they have something > incompatible > with ANSI standard they always tell it - there is a whole document in > distributuive > that states what is different and why GCC team thinks it should be > different. I hate to tell you this, but gcc is a good example of a particularly bad implementation of the ANSI C standard, with a particularly bad documentation. And no, not even with -ansi -pedantic it is ANSI C compatible.

No, it's _exactly_ the same, as far as the compiler is concerned. The meaning of "volatile" is to prevent the compiler's optimizer stage from assuming that the content of a variable cannot change _asynchronously_ between C statements. The important word is ``asynchronously''. It means changes to variables outside of the control flow which is known to the compiler at compile-time. This includes signal handlers just as well as hardware registers, shared memory etc. I think the explanation which Giorgos gave is pretty good. > Could you explain me how it helps in your example? I pointed, that > you can get signal between two assembler commands and it > does destroys all your assumptions. The assembler commands do not matter. Only C statements matter, because this is the smallest separable execution unit of a C program. Without "volatile", the programmer would be unable to write his program in such a way that asynchronous changes work with register optimizations. This is why "volatile" exists, and this is why a compiler _must_ obey it. All of the above is (formally) specified in the standard, I'd suggest that you read it carefully.

The only explanation I have is that, after running ktrace, I did a 'cat ktrace.out' to see what was in there. It was, of course a binary and totally screwed up my machine to the extent that a shutdown couldn't fix it. So I did a cold boot. SSH2 has now compiled without a murmur.

You're assigning to "f1" the value of open(...) == -1, which will be 1 if open fails, and 0 if it doesn't. this will cause your code to try to read from standard input, or output, respectively.

Running the output of your ktrace through kdump, I see no call to the chmod system call. Testing chmod through ktrace/kdump on my machine I saw what was expected, the lines: % touch test-file % ktrace -f ktrace.mine chmod 644 test-file % kdump -f ktrace.mine ... 52959 chmod CALL chmod(0x805a000,0x1a4) 52959 chmod NAMI "test-file" 52959 chmod RET chmod 0 52959 chmod CALL exit(0) which indicate that there was a call to chmod() syscall. Is it possible that your /bin/chmod has been tampered with by someone else, while you were away? Check the modification dates of your /bin directory files. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr > "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Since you will be creating your own set of rules, it is probably a moot point. Unless you have a _long_ set of rules, converting them from IPCHAINS to IPFW should not be too daunting of a task to do by hand. However, there may be awk or Perl scripts out there to do it. But since IPCHAINS has the whole concept of "chains" that IPFW does not, automating the process would be tough. Once you have created your own set of rules, I would suggest putting them in a file called something like, /etc/rc.firewall.local or /etc/rc.firewall., and change the "firewall_script" variable accordingly in /etc/rc.conf. Then forget about "firewall_type." -- Crist J.

You can try downloading the file manually, # cd /usr/ports/distfiles # fetch -p ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/somewhere/somefile.tgz The '-p' option will use "passive" ftp to get the file. This is will probably solve your firewall problem. An alternate way to do this is to set the following environmental varaible, # setenv FTP_PASSIVE_MODE # (for csh or tcsh) # FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=""; export FTP_PASSIVE_MODE # (for sh or bash) And then "make" from the ports directory as usual. -- Crist J.

The quickest way to find out would be to copy one entry from Linux to FreeBSD and see what happens. Under FreeBSD there are two hashing engines used, MD5 and DES. DES is not provided by default. I think a hashed (the mess you see in the 2nd field of the passwd entry) MD5 password begins with a dollar sign. A FreeBSD system with DES will take either but new passwords will be DES. DES is required for NIS to be compatible with other Unix (and Linux) systems. So I'd guess somehow Linux has DES. > Another questions is about new format password on Free > BSD. I found this text from the FreeBSD handbook: > " The password file format has changed since 4.3BSD. There is a "make upgrade" target in /usr/src/Makefile. If you upgrade by sources this might take care of the passwd format for you. I know this machine started out as 2.2.x and went thru 2.2.[5678] before making the leap to the 3.x series. Believe when I made the leap I used the upgrade option from CDROM but have used the source technique on other systems. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

IIRC, it started happening after I edited /etc/crontab with a text editor, NOT crontab(1). Root did not have a crontab before that but it seems that one got added anyway, despite the fact that I didn't use crontab(1).

This >includes signal handlers just as well as hardware registers, >shared memory etc. Wrong, wrong and wrong. Hardware generates interrupts, changes statues and value in hardware registers totaly async and this process is out of your control. Hardware register can change its value even during totally masked status of CPU. Sighandler is a function written by a programmer, and sharing resources between two asyn processes is totally diferent. This is SYNCHRONIZATION problem. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE to get access from two async processes and your process and sighandler. Moreover, your process will be stopped as soon as sighandler gets its control. This process is totally under your control and could and should use process sync mechanism such as semphores, monitors or critical intervals, etc to solve this problem. Take a look at the following example: int allocated = 0; char *mem = NULL; void Sigusr1Handler( int siganl ) { if ( allocateded ) { sleep( 60 ); // just for fun mem[ 2 ] = 'F'; ... } } void Sigusr2Handler( int siganl ) { if ( allocated ) { free( mem ); mem = NULL; opened = 0; } } int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { mem = ( char* )malloc( 20 ); opend = 1; ... return 0; } I added sleep( 60 ) just to show, that even if you declare both of mem and opened as a vilotile there is a period of time (if you remove sleep, then you can reduce it, but you cannot eliminate it at all) when your sighandler is vulnerable to a typical error in a typical situation. And vilotale doesn't help a bit!!! Again, I let myself to cite BS book (p. 808) - "an object can change its value in ways not specified by the language". In my mind, this is very careful and strict statement. > >I think the explanation which Giorgos gave is pretty good. > > > Could you explain me how it helps in your example?

Only C statements >matter, because this is the smallest separable execution >unit of a C program. Wrong wrong and wrong again - what about expressions and function calls? Example extern const vilotile clock; int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { int snap_shot; ... if ( 18000 < clock && clock < 18002 ) { snap_shot = clock * clock; } return 0; } In this example, you have to declare clock as a vilotile. It means no copies, I agree here with you. But 'if' statement is ill-formed and multiplication is ill formed also - because vilotaile means that two sequential accesses to the same variable can give you different results. In other words, there is no warranty that you will enter inside 'if', because first time you get access to the clock it will retturn 18001, but for the seconf 19003. The same is true about multiplication. There is a good probability, that you will not have a square of the clock. For compiler that means, that instead of (for multiplication) mov clock,%eax mult %eax,%eax mov %eax,snap_shot It sgould generate mov clock,%eax mult %eax,clock mov %eax,snap_shot and you can do nothing about it. And all this is true for one C/C++ statement. This is difference between bin vilotile and async access to a global resource. > >Without "volatile", the programmer would be unable to write >his program in such a way that asynchronous changes work Yes, (s)he would. Consider, please, traditional methods for async communications and process synchronizations. There is an excellent book by C.A.R. Hoare - Communicating Sequential Processes (Prentice-Hall) - very mathematical and strict book. You can go to one of the first works by E. Dijkstra in the book named Programming Languges, NATO Advanced Study Institute, 1968, Academic Press, London and New York. You can take a look at much more later articles and books (I personally, like Tony Hoar book) - "An introduction to Operating Systems" by Harvey Deitel, "The design of operating systems for small computer systems" by Stphen H. Kaisler, "Operating Systems" by Show, "Practical UNIX Programming. A guide to Concurrency, Communication and Multithreading" by Kay A. Robbins and Steven Robbins, "Thread Primer. A guide to multithreaded programming" by Bil Lewis and Daniel J. Berg. Any ofthis book or article will show you how to live without vilotile in async process environment. One more thing about smallest separable execution of the language - almost none of language gearantees that statement could not be interrupted by signal, message or schedular. And this is another reason for vilotile existense - no synonyms inside an expression. >with register optimizations.

My internet connection is a satalite connection, which connects the the FreeBSD machine via Ethernet; the internet connection requires no configuration of any kind. The FreeBSD machine is a P1 - 166MHz MMX w/ 16MB Simm, 2 DLink 10BaseT Ethernet cards recognized as ed1 (internet) and ed2 (intranet, connected to hub), and a generic 4MB video card. The FreeBSD machine, is able to ping all machines on the LAN, and is able to access the internet just fine; inversely, all machines on the lan are able to ping the FreeBSD machine. IP's on the lan are 192.168.x . NATD is enabled and loads with BSD, When attempting to ping out the to internet, using the BSD machine as a gateway, from another machine on the network, packets are transmitted to the internet each time a ping is sent however no packets are ever recieved from the internet. All pings time out except if they are initiated from the FreeBSD box. What do you suggest? What should I check? On a side note, I think the packets are being aliased incorrectly, however I am not sure how to check this or how to correct this if this is the problem.

I booted with the floppies and told it to install ftp after i configured the ethernet card. It finished the install and the machine is booting fine, the only problem is that, when i put my cdrom in the port and turn on my machine, FreeBSD will not recognize my cdrom drive. I wanted to know, does the cdrom have to be in the port during the install for it to work in freebsd? (if that's so, I am like really screwed because I can't do that ) Thanks hope to hear from you guys , Later To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jan 15 20:25:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp.nwlink.com (smtp.nwlink.com [209.20.130.57]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A043B15007 for ; Sat, 15 Jan 2000 20:25:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rjoseph@nwlink.com) Received: from nwlink.com (ip41.r5.d.bel.nwlink.com [207.202.173.41]) by smtp.nwlink.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA08403; Sat, 15 Jan 2000 20:25:39 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <3881476C.DC892A7B@nwlink.com> Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2000 20:22:04 -0800 From: R Joseph Wright X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Salvo Bartolotta , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: Re Re: can't make certain ports References: <387E7CF7.929D2539@nwlink.com> <388127E8.97E81FF6@nwlink.com> <20000116.3312700@bartequi.ottodomain.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Salvo Bartolotta wrote: > > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< > > On 1/16/00, 3:07:36 AM, R Joseph Wright wrote > regarding Re: can't make certain ports: > > > I discovered the problem finally.

For me, it wouldn't deinstall because it was trying to deinstall kde-1.1.2 and I had kde-1.1.1 installed. I ended up using pkg_delete to get rid of it before building. Even after doing that, I still couldn't use the metaport. I *had* to build kdelibs before kdebase would build. Which is a bit strange, since the ports system is supposed to handle dependencies. I don't really understand how it all works, I just play with it until I can get something going. > In your case, you might have used "pkg_delete -f" (man pkg_delete;-) > to the same effect, and then tried the metaport mechanism.

You need to put an entry in you /etc/fstab file similar to the following:

# Device                         Mountpoint              Fstype     Options              Dump         Pass #
/dev/acd0c                      /cdrom                       cd9660    ro,noauto            0                   0

Do mkdir /cdrom if it doesn't already exist. Then place a cd in the drive and type 'mount /dev/acd0c /cdrom'.
Check dmesg to see what kind of drive you have, mine happens to be /dev/acd0.

Sorry, If I am annoying sombody. Sighandler is always an async process, but it's not an async in the same way as other thread or process. Why? Sighandler gets control in an async way, but your main process never gets it back until a sighadler returns it. So, from the point of view of a sighandler, everything happens asynchronously - process gets interrupted and a sighandler gets control. From the point of view of a process, this is an async interruption, but with some attributes of co-processing - it's not going to get control back until a handler returns it back (I don't discuss longjmp now, but it's control returning). And you should take that into consideration. Why? Because it's not enough to use standard synchronization methods to synchronize handler and and your program, you should take some extra steps. If you write just something like this (I will use pseudo code since implementation of semaphore are different in different UNIXes): int a = 0; ... sema s = 1; s--; a = k + 3; s++; ... void Sighandler( int sig ) { s--; // use a; s++; } and program gets interrupted between first pair of s--;...s++;, sighandler will hang forever on the first s--; - remember, that process will never get control back until Sighandler finishes and, as a result; will never increase semaphore - deadlock. The same is true about critical intervals, monitors, etxc. Where is an exit? Well, the first one is write a sighandler in such way, that it will create a request and put it to the queue through async save call and the other thread will take request out of the queue and take care of them. You can see this approach implemented in operating systems, drivers, etc. A little bit complex, but works. Another way to do it is - to use sigblock/sigsetmask to mask all signals that could interfere with access to a global resource. int a = 0; ... sigblock( sigmask( SIGUSR1 ) ); sigblock( sigmask( SIGUSR2 ) ); a = k + 3; sigsetmask( 0 ); // too harsh to reenable all signals - just for simplicity. ... void SighandlerSigusr1( int sig ) { sigblock( sigmask( SIGUSR2 ) ); // use a; sigsetmask( 0 ); // too harsh to reenable all signals - just for simplicity. } A very good example of using sigblock/sigsetmask is in "UNIX network programming" by W. Richard Stevens, pp. 326-327 (one of many). And this is an example of Asynchronous IO, basicaly, excatly what initiator of this thread was asking for. In the first case, you do not need vilotile. In the second case it's better to use it - I agree here, not competely, but agree - but it's not enough just to use vilotile. In my expirience, none of compiler did a fancy optimizations on a global variable if this variable could be accessed from another units. Especially, this is true in C++ world with try/catch blocks. But even in C world, if compiler sees a statement like this int a; void mmm( void ) { a = 3; ... a = .... k = foo( ); // this statement ... } It has zero knowledge about foo at this moment and should not make any fancy optimization. Again, this is just my expirience and I could be wrong. But with this non-kernel multithread support (POSIX and other standards), when you can easily share global data among many threads. A lot of about async safe function you can find in "Threads Primer" by Bil Lewis and Daniel J. Berg and in "Practical UNIX Programming. A guide to comcurrency, Communication, and Multithreading" by Kay A. Robbins and Steven Robbins. A lot of good in books written by W. Richard Stevens (network orientation). I am sure that everybody has his/her favorite book on concurrent programming and can recomend it to others.

Usually you have your logs in /var/ so = I would look=20 into cleaning up the /var/log/maillog and other files on a regular = basis and/or=20 it could be because of /var/mail where all the mail spools are at. You = can run=20 a script  that can rotate or clean the files in /var/logs/ = and/or you=20 can setup a disk quota in /var/mail to control the size of mail = spools=20 usually sysadmins set this up to be about 5-10MB but it might vary = depending on=20 the system needs..

Check the exact edition of the book. If it's the third edition, it's worth the money (that's the edition that's still in print, and it normally sells for $40 without the CDs). If it's the second edition, I'd suggest you forget it. 3.0 was not the most stable version of FreeBSD. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Large file systems themselves are not a problem in BSD. Several > people have reported having very large file systems on FreeBSD. ( IE > : 100G or so ). I've always been an advocate of large file systems, but there are some drawbacks: 1. If you have a crash, the fsck time can be considerable. I don't know if it's any worse than fsck'ing several smaller file systems with the same total size, however. 2. Backing up and restoring can be a challenge. I've tended to say "don't make your file systems larger than your tapes", but there are exceptions, especially if you can back up at the subdirectory level. For the same reason, multi-reel backups can be counterproductive. If for some reason you accidentally delete a file and need to restore it from tape, you may find it takes 8 hours or longer, reading through tapes you don't need to look at. > 2.

We're pretty sure we have fenced this bug in now. It only applies to IDE drives using the wd driver in CHS mode. If you use the at driver (due for release in 4.0-RELEASE), or use the wd driver in LBA mode, you won't have this problem. Nobody has reported problems running IDE drives under vinum, though I suspect the problem would occur there as well. > Depending on what kind of peak load you are looking at then splitting > things up ( via vinum or separate disks ) may buy you some performance > also.

If you have a large number of files in a directory, the search time can become considerable. This method can improve matters.
