The FreeBSD ncr driver does not read the user-setup from NVRAM and it is not possible to tell it about the BUS width at boot time. So, the WIDE negotiation has every chance to occur with great success and, as a result, will break any further data transfer between the controller and the device. > > Is there a way to force the driver to use narrow mode?

You will get the desired effect by just masking the FE_WIDE bit in the 'features' bitmap which is the main result of the chip probe code. Look into ncr_attach(), the patch should be trivial and very short. > I did some more checking around and found out that Debian Linux also works > fine with the Seagate Hawk/Diamond Fireport 40 combination. But FreeBSD, The Linux driver reads the user-setup from the controller NVRAM and apply user desired controller and devices settings. It is also possible to send it boot parameters. The 2nd method is only usefull for controllers that donnot have NVRAM. At the time I have back-ported the Ultra1/2 SCSI support to the FreeBSD ncr driver, the NVRAM code was available in the Linux ncr53c8xx driver, but this code hasn't been candidate to the back-port, since SteFan was working on a different implementation for FreeBSD. > NetBSD, and OpenBSD all suffer from the same problem of being locked on > "wide bus" when I am using the narrow connector. Same problem as FreeBSD. Regards, Gerard.

After about two weeks of being harrassed by a programmer on one of my boxes, I started to dig into it myself. He's been trying to use gprof and the profiling stuff (built with gcc -pg), and its been giving him the error: cc -pg -g -O -Iinclude -Imodules -Lmodules grammar.o coldcc.o [..lots of objects..] shs.o crypt.o -lm -o coldcc ld: -lc_p: no match *** Error code 1 After a few incredibly frustrating hours I was about to throw my hands up in the air and send a 'help please' message off to the mailing list, when I vaguely remembered something about 'profiling' in the installation. A quick check showed that proflibs are a seperate aspect from the regular install, even though 'cc -pg' and 'gprof' and 'profil' and other commands are installed. This is a problem because NOWHERE does it say 'dont forget to install the profiled libraries--otherwise this will not work'. This is a serious frustration factor, quantified by the programming constantly telling me 'it works in linux just fine'. IMHO, one of two things needs to be done: 1) update the man page on anything regarding profiling to say in big letters that 'this will not work unless the profiling libraries are installed' 2) pull all profiling commands out of the base install and wrap them in with proflibs as a generic 'Code Profiling Libraries and Utilities' module, and change it so cc -pg will error out if they are not installed (rather than simply dying with an error of not being able to find libc_p). *GAAH* Ok, I feel better...suppose I should just send-pr this... ohwell, this way it'll also showup in the search so others will find the solution (instead of just the question). -Brandon Gillespie --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: o9mguOydfmNN4fWeUHb66CnKy9cjBCIe iQA/AwUBNg30q0v5XoQiMgn6EQI7xwCgrTU9GXM3/5F4ImylemeUxorv9JoAni5R dTjBkhHMTUWMzpcPydM08SUW =4uWN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 27 03:40:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA14434 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 03:40:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dt053nb4.san.rr.com (dt053nb4.san.rr.com [204.210.34.180]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA14389 for ; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 03:40:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Studded@dal.net) Received: from dal.net (Studded@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by dt053nb4.san.rr.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA01541; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 03:39:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Studded@dal.net) Message-ID: <360E15F9.3D3F4418@dal.net> Date: Sun, 27 Sep 1998 03:39:53 -0700 From: Studded Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE-0920 i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "jordi.net" CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: download References: <3.0.5.32.19980927011620.007a9180@jordi.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG jordi.net wrote: > > hi > i have a 3 giga hard drive it´s divided in c: and D: and i´d like to > install freebsd to d: how do i do that??? Assuming that D: is either a primary partition, or the only logical drive on an extended partition (one of the two is almost certainly true), it's very simple. When doing the install just tell FreeBSD to destroy the existing partition and create a new FreeBSD style partition (we call them slices). There is a section in the handbook about this. You should read info on the web page about installation in detail.

Login as root umask 027 (see note on that below) Install again Note: I use umask 027 because at home, since I am the only user, I have made myself member of all the major groups (bin, operator, etc....). This way I only give rights to the owner and groups. If you have many users on that system them and you want them to have acces then 022 may be more appropiate. I also don't recommend you set that umask permanently if you have many users on that system. I know it is a drag to have to umask before you install every package, but if this system is used by many people it would be a security risk to allow an umask of 022 (there may be files with passwords in them). --------------------- francisco@natserv.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 27 08:24:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA08605 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 08:24:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from coventry.ac.uk (mercury.coventry.ac.uk [193.61.107.16]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA08595 for ; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 08:24:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from justin@mascarpone.coventry.ac.uk) Received: from mascarpone.coventry.ac.uk (mascarpone.coventry.ac.uk [194.66.38.77]) by coventry.ac.uk (8.8.7/8.6.11) with SMTP id QAA08941 for <@mercury.coventry.ac.uk:questions@freebsd.org>; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 16:23:55 +0100 (BST) Received: (from justin@localhost) by mascarpone.coventry.ac.uk (950413.SGI.8.6.12/950213.SGI.AUTOCF) id QAA01529; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 16:23:30 +0100 Message-Id: <199809271523.QAA01529@mascarpone.coventry.ac.uk> Date: Sun, 27 Sep 98 16:23 +0100 From: Justin Murdock Subject: Re: !

As a point of information, my AMD K6-2 300 128MB system was horribly unstable with a 2.2.7 CD install. (page fault on first boot, 4-5 unrepeated errors during compiling a new kernel, distribution and package addition failing) The custom kernel seemed to cure it, but I've not done any serious testing as I'm waiting for a new network card, the existing one appears to be unsupported.

If you are refering to the "complete FreeBSD" as the "manual" be warned the thing is HUGE. If you were to print it, I think it takes over 1000 pages. I usually read it online or take a small subset cut/paste and print. I think the best thing to do, which I will do soon, is to get the book off walnut creek. Also don't forget to check the FAQ and Handbook. I think they are on the CDrom, but they are for sure at www.freebsd.org (and mirrors). --------------------- francisco@natserv.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 27 09:36:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA14610 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 09:36:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from freebie.peace.com.my (freebie.neuronet.com.my [202.184.153.29]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA14602 for ; Sun, 27 Sep 1998 09:36:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from panda@peace.com.my) Received: (qmail 9165 invoked from network); 27 Sep 1998 16:23:28 -0000 Received: from squid.neuronet.com.my (HELO bimbo.models.com.my) (202.184.153.5) by freebie.neuronet.com.my with SMTP; 27 Sep 1998 16:23:28 -0000 Message-Id: <3.0.32.19980928002346.00e374bc@mail.peace.com.my> X-Sender: panda@mail.peace.com.my X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Mon, 28 Sep 1998 00:23:46 +0800 To: "Don Clark" , From: chas Subject: Re: I am New to Free BSD ...

Leland Heaotn Jr. You'll want to use a program like 'fips' to resize your Win98 partition. If you Win98 partition is FAT32 then fips may not work, in which case you'll want to check out 'Partition Magic'. Be advised, 'fips' is freeware, and 'Partition Magic' is payware (it's only about $30.00) though. Or... you could just fdisk the drive and start over.

I am running 2.2.6-RELEASE and I am getting ready to go to STABLE, however ld.so complains about not being able to find the shared lib libXaw.so.6.1. That is another matter, but if anyone has any thoughts, I'd appreciate it. I have ISDN and am using an older Impact IQ TA clone-look-alike made by QuickAccess Gateway, if the info on the front panel is accurate. Apparently 3COM acquired them once upon a time ago. I can get PPP to dial, connect, and route with no problems. Everything works very well, but, the connection seems to hang. It never drops cleanly, meaning the B1 channel light never goes out and I still have the 'PPP' when I run pppctl, so ppp still thinks it is connected. Routing, however, just seems to stop until I send a 'kill -INT' signal to ppp which causes the connection to drop and redial and then everything is happy. If it matters, I am not doing NAT. I have an address block of 16 IP's, but I am allowing PPP to grab and assign the addresses in ppp.conf, even though they are the same every time on both the server's side and mine. The FreeBSD box is serving as a gateway for a Win95 machine I have on the network. Now here is where it get really strange, to me. I can FTP all day. In fact, I did just that and transfered about 300Megs of files without a problem. I can also be connected via secure shell for hours at a time, doing mail and news. The only time it has "hung" so far is while I am "surfing the web" on the Win95 box. It just stops and if I let it sit there for about two minutes, the connection will automatically restart everything will again work. I dug through the ppp.log file and I saw a line referring to too many ECHO LQR packets lost at the time the connection was dropped and redialed. I do have Link Quality Reporting enabled and accepted in ppp.conf. Humm... anyone have any thoughts? Thanks a lot, -Richard.

Doh, I wasn't thinking very clearly. The natd requirement makes the obvious unworkable. One interface has to take care of both incoming and outgoing packets. You might be able to convince lo0 or your interior interface to handle this but I'm not sure how.

Are you using an internal or external modem? You have to settle with the type of UART provided on an internal modem. The internal U.S. Robotics V.90 Sportster I use has a 16550A UART. The problem could be caused by paging to a PIO IDE drive. Paging has a very high priority and PIO IDE uses lots of CPU cycles. I have a 486 that suffers interrupt-level and tty-level buffer overflows because of this. What type of CPU, motherboard, and harddrive are you using? As long as you are using the modem for something like PPP, SLIP, or ZModem, this error is annoying but not critical. It's annoying because time must be spent resending data but not critical because the error is virtually always detected. 45 silo overflows isn't much to worry about.

i use cu to do this (a FBSD term program).
you can rz & sz files back an forth from
the server, and use all the shell programs.

the only prob i had with popper was that with 2.2.7
(as of a month or two ago) i couldn't find it as a package.
i used my old 2.2.5 version.

I'm not sure, but the executable is in /usr/local/libexec, and is:

-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin  bin  45056 Oct 17  1997 popper

it came with the disks (2.2.5) in the Complete FreeBSD by Leahey.
Is this out of date now?

Jane.

Does anyone out there know of any Automounter 
"how to's" on the net?  Or is anyone out there
willing to help me set this thing up off list?  I
have the O'Reilly NIS/NFS book, but it's really
not that clear, and there is absolutely zero mention 
of the Automounter in my copy of the FreeBSD 
Handbook (although I will look to see if someone 
has updates it since I got it).  I have a "regular"
usage and an "odd" usage for it.  There is a single 
high-speed file server holding the user directories
under /usr/home.  On half a dozen machines, I just
need it to mount as /usr/home/whatever on demand.
But on one machine, we have our file space organized
by projects, so that each project has a group directory:

/projectA/
     project_directory
     user_a
     user_b
     user_c

/projectA/
     project_directory
     user_d
     user_a                   <--- note that users can appear on more 
than 1
     user_x                          project.  

I want their home directory to appear in whatever project they are
logged into.  Also, is there anything like a group password in
FreeBSD (yes, I know it is a Bad Idea...).

Thank you all!
Jane.

I just pasted this into a file and it looks just like your quoted text
above; using lynx 2.8.1dev.29 (20 Sep 1998).  What do you see on your
console, and what version of lynx are you using?

I believe pppd has IPX support.  You'll need to recompile your kernel
with "options IPX" also.

Freebsd Query

Hi when I installed Freebsd installed with a NIC card
When I installed it 3 months ago the NIC card was detected during the 
installation process.

I was wondering how I can setup freebsd so I can use the win95 PC to log 
onto the FREEBSD using telnet.

Please tell me how it is done.

Help Me :(

Subject: Can DHCP really be this simple ?
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

I've got DHCP running but would appreciate it if someone could
pass an experienced eye over this configuration before I unleash
my Freebie box on 50 unsuspecting users tomorrow !

The FreeBSD box sits between the LAN and firewall as follows :
                 
LAN (50 PCs) <----> fxp1
                    fxp0 <----> Firewall <----> Internet
                    

The following startup scripts are appended to the end of /etc/rc.local :
# Start NATd on the external interface :
/usr/local/sbin/natd -interface fxp0
# Allow all packets through :
/sbin/ipfw -f flush 
/sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via fxp0
/sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any
# Start the DHCP server on the internal interface :
/usr/local/sbin/dhcpd fxp1


My /etc/dhcpd.conf file is based on the sample provided :
# dhcpd.conf
server-identifier proxy.ourdomain.com;   # the name of the proxy
option domain-name "ourdomain.com";      # our company's domain
option domain-name-servers ns.ourdomain.com;  # our dns server

shared-network NEURONET {
  option subnet-mask 255.0.0.0;
  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
  subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 {
    range 10.0.0.50 10.0.0.254;
    option broadcast-address 10.0.0.255;
    option routers 10.0.0.1;
  }
}

Basically, I just want IPs between 10.0.0.50 and 10.0.0.254 to be
allocated dynamically to PCs connecting on the LAN. The above  seems
to work but it was trial and error so I'm not that confident about 
what I've done.

Also, if I then want to run a server with fixed IP (eg. 202.184.153.17) 
on one of the IPs on the LAN not assigned dynamically (eg. 10.0.0.17),
where is this translation entered ?  

chas

ps. Since DHCP requires the bpfilter option in the kernel, should 
anything else be done to beef up security on this machine ? 
(I'm disabling telnet, ftp, sendmail etc. Plus it sits behind a firewall)

	I'm cc'ing the -questions list, where this kind of query 
	properly belongs.  The people on -questions have prob'ly 
	seen this one myriad times before.  Also where you are 
	likely to get help much more quickly than through me.

	There is no such thing as a stupid question, as far as I'm
	concerned; the stupid thing is not to ask help if  you are 
	stumped.

	That said, the following questions come to mind:  
	  
	  Have you checked the device directory to see if fd0...
	  exist?   Type:

	    % cd /dev
	    % ls -l fd0*

	  to see.  The floppy devices should be there; and yes, of
	  course they are in the kernel.   Type

	    % dmesg | more

	  to check your system configuration.

	  Assuming the /dev/fd0 and others are missing, you can
	  make the with the MAKEDEV script.  You've got to be root
	  and specify MAKEDEV specifically since /dev isn't in 
	  root's exec $path.

	  So try :

	    # cd /dev 
	    # ./MAKEDEV fd0



	And let us know what happens...  

	enjoy!

	gary

You may wish to read man mtree and look in /etc/mtree

It may be possible for mtree to reset these things for you, according
to "spec".

   It could be a bug with freeing a route too many times. It might also be
casued by a memory error.

Oracle 7.3.2 server and SQL*Net listener appears to be running ok, so I
am trying to run sqlplus client from win95.  After sending username and
password, it says:

ERROR: ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-07429: smsgsg: shmget() failed to get segment.
AT&T System V/386 Error: 2: No such file or directory

What file is this error talking about??
>From a FreeBSD session, I am able to use sqlplus.

My kernel configuration file says:

options         SYSVSHM
options         SYSVSEM
options         SYSVMSG
options         "IBCS2"

options         "SHMMAX=(SHMMAXPGS*PAGE_SIZE+1)"
options         SHMMAXPGS=10240
options         SHMMIN=10

options         SHMSEG=180
options         SEMMNI=20
options         SEMMNS=60


my /compat/ibcs2/dev    looks like:

total 2

(FAQ entry about this shows filenames with a "@", I am not sure why, so
I have created two versions of each file).

The shm test program from Oracle, shows:

Number of segments gotten by shmget() = 13
Number of segments attached by shmat() = 13
Segments attach at higher addresses
Maximum size segments are not attached contiguously!
  Segment separation = 2097152 bytes
Default shared memory address = 0x9001000
Lowest shared memory address  = 0x9001000
Highest shared memory address = 0xefa01000
Total shared memory range     = -423624704
Total shared memory attached  = 27262976
Largest single segment size   =  2097152
Segment boundaries (SHMLBA)   =  4194304 (0x400000)

Any ideas?  My FreeBSD version is 3.0-981006-SNAP.

Thanks in advance!

That's "The Complete FreeBSD" (only obnoxious text format).  That's a
book which costs money, which is why there's no PostScript.

Well, no, the man pages are missing on the text version, so it's
"only" about 800 pages.  But it's difficult to read.  Buy the book :-)

Exactly the intention.

I think that's what he's talking about.

The online handbook is on the second CD-ROM in the directory
/usr/share/doc/handbook, both in ASCII and HTML forms.

Well, it wasn't the "LEMIS" hack.  I just hosted it.

What version of FreeBSD are you using?  A large number of these
problems were fixed in 2.2.7.  The hack just worked around them.  If
you have one of these boards, and you're running an older version
(possibly with the hack I supplied), you should really upgrade.

You'll be interested to know that we were, in fact, approached by the
manufacturer of this particular chip (Acer) asking for cooperation in
chip development.  Things are looking up.

it's not EASY to explain these problems!!!
it's driving me crazy and makes me look like
a fool.  lynx does not necessarily screw up
ON the bad html, LYNX WREAKS HAVOC DOWN FARTHER
in a document.  does this make sense now?

for example,
------------------------------------------------------------
<TITLE> BAD HTML </TITLE>

GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)
GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)
GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)

BAD HTML  (lynx may display this seemingky ok too)

GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)
GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)
GOOD HTML (lynx displays logically)

GOOD HTML (lynx wreaks havoc here because of BAD HTML above)
------------------------------------------------------------
now, if you take the example below, which DOES seemingly
display OK, add run it thru a validator (w3c 4.0 strict
for example), you get:

Error at line X:
	[...] <IMG SRC="g.gif" ALT="[G1]"> text1
                                          ^ document type does not
                                            allow element <IMG> here

believe me - i'm not crazy.  i wish lynx WOULD
screw up on the bad HTML, but it doesn't.  it
screws up your document on GOOD HTML, farther
down in a document.  this is creating hell for
me as i try to get my good ole lynx 2.7 and
netscape 3.04 web pages working with lynx 2.8
and netscape 3.04.  i can't believe no one
else has mentioned this hassle.  probably
not many web authours pay much attention
to detail, and/or care about lynx/netscape
viewability, and/or mix graphics/text
in neat and close arrangements ...

i'm not yet necessarily sure that the problems i'm
having are the result of the bad HTML.  it could be
that lynx chokes on certain combinations of
elements and tags.  this will take alot of work
to figure out since lynx appears indescriminate
on exactly where the crummy output will appear.

Have you tried ktrace?  It could be that the message isn't what you
think it is.

Put the following line in /etc/inetd.conf :

telnet  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/telnetd    telnetd

Then restart inetd. 

I'm assuming you really have networked the FreeBSD box.

Hey, I am wondering about this because i am
very cash poor. But, when say 2.2.8 or 3.0 comes
out and i want a CD how hard would it be to make
one myself (i do have a CD-R) under both FreeBSD
(i run 2.2.6) and Win98.  I would like to create 
something like Walnut Creek CD-Rom ships that
is bootable via El-Torrito(i think).  And i know they
have a list of files they put on the CD's on their site
so i don't have a problem knowing what files go 
where.  Any help, or if you could point me in 
the direction of something that could be useful 
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Samuel Greear

	www.cheapbytes.com I bought the 2.2.6 set with the book, then 
bought 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 on single CDROMs so I can quick load my machines. 
All of the CDROMs they sell are bootable through the El-Torrito standard.

Hi folks,
	Just wondering if somebody could help me out with a little problem
i'm having here.  This is on a 2.2.7-Stable machine.  Everytime that I run
a top it shows this for my cpu usage.

CPU states:  0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.0% system, 0.0% interrupt, 0.0% idle

Also all the processes running claim to be using no cpu when it is
apparent that they are. Even when running high CPU usage processes such as
the rc5des client. I recompiled the top source in /usr/src/usr.bin but it
didn't help any.  Also i tried cvsuping, remaking the world, and then
compiling a new kernel, yet still it has the same problem.  Any help would
be much appreciated, please cc any replies to me as I am not on this list,
thank you.

Do you mean 2.2-STABLE or 2.2.7-RELEASE?  If the former, you should
say when you supped it.

We've seen something like that recently.  If you *are* running
-STABLE, try resupping.

Hi folks,
This is a bit off topic, but I figure its worth a shot.

I'm trying to create a cgi script that will poll my ISPs com servers
and then create a webpage based on if I'm logged in or not.

I have it working for the most part, and if I run the script from the
command line I get exactly what I'm looking for, but that isn't the case
when I execute it from the web browser.

I am assuming it has to  do with my if statements.  I've tried it with 2
if statments and an if else statement, but I get the same results.  Can
there be if/else statements in cgi's? 

Anyhow, the script can be executed at www.weirdo.net/scripts/online.sh
And instead of posting the whole script to the list I'll only send it to
the people that request it. So, if you'd like to help and want to see the
script let me know and I'll gladly send it.

TIA,
Chris

cahs, Are you sure that was a good idea?  Haveing a net connection or
not, you will have the telnet line in your inetd.conf.  

Fluffy, did you setup an IP for your network card?  If so then you are
set.  If not, find out the driver id for your card (as is vx0 or ep0)
then edit your /etc/inetd.conf like so

ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.11    netmask 255.255.255.0"

Then make the win9x machine default gateway your FreeBSD machine.
Then you will be able to telnet to your FreeBSD machine by IP
number.  If you want DNS, you can look at the FreeBSD handbook on 
seting up a mini-DNS server.

Greetings,
   I have multiple os's on a single 8.4GB hdd.  The problem that I have run 
into is that I am able to access the dos partition (wd0s1) and the 
FreeBSD partition (wd0s2) is accessable of course.  The problem is that
all my other partitions reside in an extended partition (wd0s3).  

   I want to be able to access my Win95 partition (wd0s3 first logical 
partition) and my 2 linux partitions (wd0s3 logical drive 3 and 5) and once
I get it installed the Solaris pratition as well. (will be wd0s3 logical 6)_

   Is there any way that I can access the data in this extended partition?
If so... how.  

System information:
OS: FreeBSD 3.0-BETA (updated via cvsup this morning 9/27)
HDD: IBM 8.4GB

Anything more just ask please.  Thanks in advance

Mark

Partially.  But do you have an example?

Yeah, because according to the spec (3.2 and 4.0):

   PRE has the same content model as paragraphs, excluding images and
   elements that produce changes in font size, e.g. IMG, BIG, SMALL,
   SUB, SUP and FONT.

As I said before, none of the web browsers are HTML validators.  They
will do their best to display what you ask, but if you give them
unusual input, there's no guarantee that you'll get usable output.

What we sometimes do at work is have two pages, one for lynx, and one
for graphical browsers. This is easy with the Roxen webserver, where
you can do things like "<if supports=tables>tables!</if> 
<else>no tables</else>", and depending on the user-agent, will return
either the <if> container or the <else> container. Take a look at
http://www.emsphone.com/Al to see this in action.  The set of links in
the center is rendered with tables or <pre> tags, depending on the
browser.

You might want to ask the lynx authors about this.  Give them a
reference to your html source, and ask them what the correct way to do
what you want is.

I am trying to do the same.  I don't have much info and have not been
able to test this (since I am without CDR), but here's what little
information I do have (anyone - feel free to let me know where I need
more, should be doing something else, etc.):


Make sure that you have the vn driver configured into your kernel.

Then, make a SNAP/RELEASE of what you want to make a CD with by CVSUP'ing 
a source tree with 'cvsup -g supfile'.  To keep all the sources in
/usr/home/2.2.8-SNA-cvs, the cvsup info in
/usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP-cvsinfo, your supfile should have:

  *default prefix=/usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP-cvs
  *default base=/usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP-cvsinfo
  *default release=cvs (if you want -STABLE, use tag=RELENG_2_2
                        afterwards)
   src-all
   src-eBones
   src-secure
   ports-all (I have a tag=. in mine, don't know if it's necessary)
   www
   doc-all


Then, do the following to build the release in /usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP:
  setenv CVSROOT /usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP-cvs
  cd /usr/src/release
  make release BUILDNAME=2.2.8-MY-SNAP CHROOTDIR=/usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP


Now you need to make an ISO image.  There is an example script in
/usr/share/examples/worm called makecdfs.sh.  To have the CD bootable,
start the script with a -b option.  For example, to make an ISO image
called 2.2.8-CD.image with the name FreeBSD-2.2.8 in /usr/home, with
everything stored in the directory structure /usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP, and a
copyright string of TestCD

   makecdfs -b FreeBSD-2.2.8 /usr/home/2.2.8-SNAP /usr/home/2.2.8-CD.image \
   "TestCD"

(note that the above is all on one line).


This ISO image can be used under FreeBSD using the burncd.sh script (in
the /usr/share/examples/worm directory), or under a greater portion of
Windows CDR utilties.  The burncd.sh script is tailored to the HP 4020i,
and other CDR's may supposedly require other setups (read the script and 
the man page on wormcontrol(1) to find out what to do for any other CDR).
Since HP bought back my 4020i's (I had three of them die on me in two
months), and since I sold my Yamaha CDR over a year ago, I can't test this
to see if it really works.  If you have any luck, *please* let me know.
I'd be very interested - and probably running to the wholesaler to buy
another Yamaha CDR  :)

Again, I have absolutely *no* idea whether this works or not, and how
much of this information is accurate. The information I do have is from
the FAQ (http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ230.html) and some helpful users
here on the list.

Oh, and of course: I can't be responsible for damage to your system, blah,
blah, blah  :)  Good luck, and let me know how it goes. . .

1.  when i try to telnet to another host often times i am disconnected
because i have the wrong terminal type (cons25).  how do i change the
terminal type under freebsd?

2.  i have two computers.  one runs freebsd and the other windows.  i have
10 base-t eithernet cards in both and they are both connected to a hub.
the hub is connected to my local network via an upload link on the hub.  i
have been assigned only one ip address by the network administrator.  is
it possible to assign the freebsd machine that address and have it be a
gateway/router to my windows machine?  so that i will be able to access
the network and the internet on both machines?  how could i do this or
something simular?

please send any information or tips you may have.  thank you for your
time.

Hello.
	My name is Senee Patimasup, living in Thailand. I'm very new to FreeBSD
(i've just installed it for the first time yesterday). The installation was
easy and smooth (thanks for this). Anyway, i got a problem which i couldn't
solve it myself, so i will be very appreciated if you  kindly help me.

	I have 3 harddrives in my computer with 'System Commander' program to
switch between OSes. I installed FreeBSD into the primiry slave harddrive.
The installation was successful and i was successfully logged into FreeBSD
environment. The problem is that 'everytime i shutdown FreeBSD and restart,
my primary master partition will set into INACTIVE one and i cannot boot
the machine. To make the partition active again, I have to set it with
fdisk everytime which is quite tedious.

	Note that i've tried all installation choice to handle MBR... I've tested
'Booteasy', 'General', and 'None' but all bring the same result. (cannot
bootup after shutdown FreeBSD).

	Do you have any clue or suggestion for the problem?

Best Regards,

Senee Patimasup

For the basics, take a look at the chapters about printing in the
handbook. You should set up an input filter which uses `smbclient' to send
the print job to the W95 box; `smbclient' is supplied by the Samba
package. The man page describing `smbclient' will give you further aid.

hi, recently i got rid of an old HDD and replaced it with a Maxtor 4.3G
IDE one. After installing windows95 (<sigh>) without a hitch i went on
to trya and install FreeBSD.

After running into some problems intially with FreeBSD unable to find
the primary DOS partition i discovered i had to remove the software
translation (EZ-DRIVE supplied with the Maxtor) to be able to install of
the DOS partition. After doing this installation goes on normally.

It is when i leave installation and try and reboot FreeBSD i encounter
futher problems. BootEasy won't boot DOS (i didnt expect it to without
s/w translation), but FreeBSD won't boot either and just hangs. I
checked the FAQ and it metnions tweaking the BIOS HDD settings but as
both FreeBSD and BIOS return the following geometry:

8940 Cylinders 15 Heads 63 Sectors

I don't think this will be the problem. I tried installing OSBS but it
gives a Write Error (probably because of the s/w trnaslation) also to
make things even more difficult FDISK hangs when i try and use it.

If i try and boot FreeBSD with "wd(1,a)/kernel" at the boot: prompt i
get the err msg:

Error: D:0x81 C:0 H:0 S:0

Scrolling continuously.. I only have one IDE drive on my system with
FreeBSD being installed in the Second partition so i assume thats the
right boot prompt..

Has anyone been able to install FreeBSD on similar setups? Maxtors
aren't exactly uncommon so someone must have some idea. Also if i DO get
FreeBSD installed, how will i boot DOS? i think i'll just have to
reinstall EZ-DRIVE and boot FreeBSD from a floppy all the time (not too
bad..) Im trying to install 2.2.7R btw

Regards,
fae

Well, after some offlist conversations I have a red face.
tcpd from the package (8192 bytes) works OK if you have the
hosts.allow and hosts.deny in /usr/local/etc  ;-)
While this does not seem the "correct" place for these
files, that is where they are expected to be. The man page
says so as well :-(
I actually symlinked /etc/hosts.allow and .deny to 
/usr/local/etc/hosts.allow and .deny.

somethings like "error 544: mx point back to ns1.test.com. unknown
host "test.com".but,if I send to addr. user@hostname.domainname.
everything become fine. this is my /etc/namedb/db.test.com file,
( BIND ver 4.9.6 in freebsd 2.2.5)

@   IN SOA ns1.test.com. billy.ns1.test.com. (

why can't domainname server unknown host in addr "user@test.com"
and is "OK" when also use the dns server with hostname
"user@ns1.test.com" ?Please give me some advise. how to make
the "usr@domainname" work if I can only have one machines to take
this two jobs.
by the way, is not yet connect to internet, is it also a problem?

Hi,

Others have already answered most of your questions, so let me just add:

I think there might be a FreeBSD binary for the RealVideo server - check
their site.

Best place to get an idea of the humongous amount of apps available:

... and that's just the beginning.  :-)

Manually, I'm afraid.

- Check that /etc/group on the new box contains the same entries as on the
  old one.  Copy it from the old to the new if necessary.
- Run vipw on the old box, and copy all the lines pertaining to the 5 users
  to a separate file.  On the new box, run vipw and yank in these lines.
  That should create the users with the same UIDs and other parameters.
- tar up the users' home directories and transfer them across.
- Remember the mailboxes!
- You might want to do a find through the entire filesystem for files
  belonging to these users.  You can "feed" the result of this find to tar as
  well.
- ... and I probably forgot some things as well.

Hi

i would like to make my freebsd to be a router, using 2 nics(3c509), it
did recognise the 2 nic, but i don't know how to configure them, using
/stand/sysinstall i can only see ep0. can anyone tell me how to
configure the ip for the second nic?(i have already configured the ip
for the first nic)

is it the correct way to have 2 default gateways by editing
defaultrouter="10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2" in /etc/rc.conf?

regards,

fook sheng

Not being au fait with the intricacies of SMB, I can only offer a "shotgun
debugging" tip:

Add a line at the end of your ipfw ruleset to log everything that's not been
explicitly allowed or denied up to that point:
  $fwcmd add deny log ip from any to any

Then play with SMB under various circumstances, and see what packets are
denied (and logged to the console).

I'm afraid, though, that from what little I know, you are going to need some
fairly permissive rules.  :-(

Every person you ask will have a different opinion as to which drives are
good and which aren't.  :-)

FWIW, I've had quite a few problems with the larger capacity (4GB upwards) WD
drives over the past year or so.  Might just have been a run of bad luck.

Unfortunately, I'm only aware of commercial applications which do UNIX/NT
password synchronisation.  See, for example, http://www.syntunix.com/

Read the man page for du(1).

Example:  To get the sizes of all subdirectories of the current directory,
sorted with the biggest first:

No, but if you pay me I'll write you one.  ;-)

Seriously, though:  What sort of front-end are you looking at?  The sort of
thing you're describing works particularly well with a Web-based front-end.
I'd advise you to look at the PHP scripting language (http://www.php.net/).
PHP makes it quite easy to write a Web-frontended application which uses,
say, Postgres or MySQL as back-end.

	I don't think there is an official one.  However out of the 
options that I've looked at webmin seems the best so far.  Check out :
http://www.webmin.com/webmin/

for more info.  There was also another one called FreeEasy, but last time 
I emailed the authors it sounded like they were going to retire it and 
recommend webmin instead.

I've had it running a couple of times and only lightly tested it thus.  
It's not perfect for the things that I'd like to use it for, but out of 
all the options so far this one gets my vote.

It's all Perl, so you'll need to have that installed.  This causes some 
bloat on the memory side of things ( compared to something in all C ).  
But nothing too exciting.  Try it out, it may be what you looking for ( 
or it may not :-)  Also it's free.

/stand/sysinstall was never intended to be the complete system
administration utility.  The one you need for setting up Ethernet
boards is ifconfig.  Try this:

# ifconfig -a
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ep0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 192.109.197.160 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.109.197.255
        ether 00:a0:24:37:0c:bd 
ep1: flags=8800<SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
tun0: flags=8150<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,PROMISC,MULTICAST> mtu 1518
        inet 192.109.197.137 --> 192.109.197.211 netmask 0xffffff00 
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 139.130.136.133 --> 139.130.136.129 netmask 0xffff0000 
ppp1: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 

Here you see that ep1 has not been configured.  You can configure it
with, say, 

  # ifconfig ep1 <IP address>

See the man page for other parameters.  These are what you put in the
variables ifconfig_ep0 and ifconfig_ep1 in /etc/rc.conf.  For example,
I have the following (because I keep changing boards):

# Choose one
ifconfig_ep0="inet 192.109.197.137 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.109.197.137 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_ed2="inet 192.109.197.137 netmask 255.255.255.0"

> is it the correct way to have 2 default gateways by editing
> defaultrouter="10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2" in /etc/rc.conf?

No.  There is no correct way to have two default gateways.  In
addition, 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 are non-routable addresses.  If you
really do have two connections to the net, you're going to have to
think carefully about what traffic you want to go over what gateway.

Ok, this is my stab in the dark.  But this is what I would do:

1.  Keep your SOA as is
2.  Remove the MX entry for ns1.test.com, it is setup as IN NS
3.  Add a MX entry for sbirdy:
	MX 10 sbirdy

You should be fine then.

Comments anyone?

Hi!

A small questions regarding NIS:

Do I really need to put the master server in the file ypserver. From
reading the man pages, I believe that only yppush uses this file, and
uses it when pushing maps to slave servers. Since adding a slave, I get
this message every time I do a make in /var/yp:

Updating group.byname...
yppush: transfer of map group.byname to server master.partitur.se failed
yppush: status returned by ypxfr: Master's version not newer

'master.partitur.se' is the master server, and the master is itself a
client (i.e. the password file is in /var/yp and access is limited using
netgroups). 

This is FreeBSD 2.2.7. 

Probably I'm wrong ;-) There should be other users for this file; it's
also a NIS map. But then maybe the Makefile is not correct?

Thanks for your input!

Does your machine support Heads settings of 64 or 255? It really is the
BIOS that matters. Put that overlay *back* on and back-up windows.
Anything you do from here out will remove windows. Check to see if your
BIOS supports drives larger than 528 MB. IF not, you'll need the overlay
to run windows. Sadly, this is one of the few setup that is not freebsd
compliant. Unless you put the old HDD in with FreeBSD and BootEasy on
it, I don't think you are going to be able to run both. Sorry. I've
tried to get around these problems with a Packard Bell with a 1G primary
IDE and a 4.3G Maxtor secondary. PB's BIOS required the MaxDrive
overlay, and alas, couldn't run FreeBSD. But it installed so
beautifully... !

I couldn't pin-down 3Com to it, but is the 3C509 a bus-master card? It
seems to have the same requirements as a NE2100: I/O address, IRQ, and
no memory... Can anyone confirm this?

sorry Stefan, could you expand on why this would be a bad idea ?
isn't it standard FreeBSD to have the telnetd in /etc/inetd.conf ?
other than adding tcpd, why wouldn't you do it like this ?
a little confused.

Cheapbytes sells the CDROMS for less than Walnut Creek.  Does FreeBSD 
receive anything from Walnut Creek?

I'm looking for incentive to buy from WC instead of CB.

I have been looking into purchasing a copy of "Partician Magic" for the purpose 
of creating a Multi-boot system with FreeBSD 2.2.7 and winnt server 4.0.
I have heard that it is a very reliable software and will partician + support 
the dual booting of both FreeBSD and nt.

I am  looking for a product that will handle the ntfs without disturbing my 
FreeBSD slice.

If there are any of that have attempted this successfully, please share your 
successes and/or recommendations.


Thank you,

Hmm, yes my Acer BIOS can't support the large HDD so it does require the
overlay if i want to run windows as well.. Argh! We tease me with a
perfect install?!

If you are making a cgi script, you'll have to make the script produce
HTTP headers, notably

Content-Type: text/plain

or

Content-Type: text/html

depending on what your script produces.

Send a copy to me, please. You could probably get away with sending it
to the list if it's less than about 5k, I doubt anyone would mind
something of that size.

How come the searchable mailing list archives have no new messages ?

http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists

I was trying to see how feasible it is to unsubscribe from the lists
but still run -CURRENT.

So I want to be able to search and browse up to the minute (or
at least 1/2 day :) mailing list archives for freebsd-current and
cvs-all.

Is there a web page somewhere where I can do this ?

The browse functionality is most important.

Ideally I'd like to be able to connect to the list with an IMAP
mail client and browse folders of say 200 messages at a time.

Anyone willing to set up such a server ?

You'd have to be able to present the lists in a read-only manner so
we cant copy between folders etc.

I have a couple of questions as to the suitability of FreeBSD as an email
server in a NFS/NIS environment.

I wish to setup FreeBSD to handle email and a few other tasks.  We have
a mixed environment of Sun, AIX, HP-UX, SINIX, etc. and I would like to be
sure that if I:
	1) Put /var/mail on a (Sun?) server (also running NIS).
	2) Mount it to all the Unix W/S.
	3) Mount it on the FreeBSD machine.
	4) Run POP, IMAP and sendmail on the FreeBSD machine.
Will:
	a) NIS work correctly?
	b) Mailbox locking work correctly?

As I understand it, NIS does not quite work correctly between FreeBSD
and non-FreeBSD (especially with shadowed passwords?)

Also, FreeBSD does not support NFS file locking.  How can the mailbox
locking work correctly?  Do all Unix implementations use the same
mailbox locking methods?  I know some Unix systems expect /var/mail to
be publicly writable or group writable, others do not.  Must the
FreeBSD system have root access to /var/mail?  Must all the others?

How about quotas?  Some people accumulate huge amounts of email and
do not delete it.  Can I cap it with quotas on /var/mail?  Does FreeBSD
understand quotas over NFS?  What will sendmail do when the mailbox
exceeds quota?

Hi, be patient! I'm totally novice to these arguments; I'm using DOS and
Windows from 6 years and now I'm looking to see if there's something
better around. I've red your "Installing FreeBSD" on th URL
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html
and it's all clear but .... the first link "Obtaining FreeBSD" brings to
FTP sites and another click to ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD.
Another click brings me to a page intitled "Current directory is
/pub/FreeBSD" with a great amount of directories:for an ignorant like
I'm, it's impossible to understand what I need to download to have a
minimun installation which make me understand if this new OS can be for
me or not. I hope that also a novice can have an help to sail in this
mare magnum. I thank you in advance for your kind answer. (Pardon my bad
English: I'm Italian)

It shouldn't be an issue. The external dsl modem is actually a router with
ethernet on one side. It can be configured to bridge or route. 

If it bridges, you just need dhcp to get an address from a central host.

If it acts as a router (with newer software) you can either use DHCP or
I think it just does address translation and routes anything in the 10
network. At least, that's what I gleem from the people handling it here.

It's all acedemic to me, I'll 5 miles from the CO.

[	I posted to my original question to the mailing list 
last weekend. It was related to not being able to install
2.2.7 propery on my HP Vectra P133/32MB/2GB system. After
apparently successfully installing onto the HD and rebooting,
I was unable to boot the kernel. Some folks blamed the problem
on a glitch in some FreeBSD installs which require a cold boot
after install, while others thought that I was merely not 
booting from the correct device. The latter was closer, but
still not exactly the fix I needed. I hope that this explanation
helps anyone else out there who might be having the same installation
woes as I did. I was quite frustrating for a while. ]

	Well, after about 4-5 additional hours of fiddling,
I figured-out what was wrong with my installation. It turns-out
that FreeBSD (incorrectly sometimes) assumes that your CDROM
is wd1 and your primary HD is wd0. It seems to me that this
assumption should be noted somewhere in the manual! Basically,
if you reverse these two (as I had done), then all hell breaks 
loose. Firstly, FreeBSD's installer does not correctly determine 
the drive's geometry, therefore installing the whole mess in the 
wrong areas on the disk. This is noted as a potential problem
in the manual as the boot loader printing "F? FreeBSD" during
booting. If one continues here you will get the error of 
'Error: 0x08 h:0 c:0 s:0'. 

	After I realized that had happened, I swapped the ids 
of the devices and rebooted. This time it found the kernel,
but crapped-out because all of the mount points were assumed
to be on wd1 due to the installation. Not being able to find 
the section on creating devices, and being worried about not 
creating them correctly in the first place, I reinstalled. This 
time viola! It all worked. XFree86 even came up with my mouse 
on the first try. After playing a bit and customizing the
kernel and package installations, my machine is running very 
well.

   Yes, WC CDROM supports the FreeBSD project in many ways, both directly and
indirectly. Cheapbytes is too cheap to do that.

>I'm looking for incentive to buy from WC instead of CB.

   Perhaps the biggest incentive would be that Cheapbytes' single CDROM is far
inferior to the 4 CDROM set that you get from WC CDROM.

Subject: configured irq no in bitmap of probed irqs
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

I get:

 "sio2: configured irq 10 no in bitmap of probed irqs 0"

when I try to configure a 56K modem to avoid conflict with
a Soundblaster.

What does this mean??
Why does 'probe' try to be smart about what irq's I can use?
(I've mapped my devices, I know how to aviod confilcts!)

Also:
What does the 'number of eisa slots to probe' configuration do?
What are all these PnP BIOS settings?
Where can I find out about PnP - not how 'add on cards' are designed
but how to manage PnP with all these BIOS settings!  

I'm really starting to hate PnP.  It reminds me of Micro$oft: 
It always seems to come to: "Sorry, cant get there from here!"

Thanks

Frustrated

Hello All,

There were a lot of entries in the mail archive but none of them did this
justice, there was nothing definitive.

I am running FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a Pentium II 400, 128MB RAM with Adaptec
2940UW and a 9GB drive. The somaxconn=512 and the apache 1.3.2 is set to
MaxClients 490.

The thing has no errors to anywhere except on the console just before it
reboots with the Fatal error.

I have:

	1. Migrated everything to a new machine (P166, 64MB RAM). Still got the
reboots.
	2. Upgraded the OS, to 2.2.7-STABLE, still got the reboots and the Fatal
error.
	3. Changed the RAM. Still got 'em.

My client is asking to go to Red Hat Linux instead, is there no solving
this???

Thank you,
Randy Katz

Can you still run FreeBSD off of the old HD? You wouldn't be able to
mount the Windows drive under FreeBSD, but it would give you *something*
to play with. It's not good to install on a overlaid disk. The overlay
changes the BIOS block requests on the fly, thus FreeBSD wouldn't work.
FreeBSD uses 32-bit addressing, or absolute access, not limited by the
BIOS. If FreeBSD was you're only OS, you could use the 4.3G without BIOS
support. That is, unless it has the same problems that Packard Bell did,
in which case it's better of building another machine. The PB actually
*stopped* detecting the drive. Appearantly, Maxtor knew just how to get
around this, but the Overlay only works for DOS/Windows. Sorry...

You mean besides the fact that you get four CDs with WC versus one CD
with CB. I'm no spokesman for WC (ask Jordan for that :)) but I like the
product. Shipping will probably be higher for NZ, but that includes the
installation CD (1), a live filesystem (in case you really botch up and
need the executables) (2), a CVS repository (on it's own disc) (3), and
some docs and extra utilities (4). Disc 4 also has the non-restricted
ports distfiles, as well as the /usr/ports dir. 

>From CB's description page: Note: Due to the size of FreeBSD 2.2.7,
various non-critical package files have been removed in order to produce
a single CD.

Take with a grain of salt.

Hi,

I have searched the mailing list archives but have not found a definitive
answer for this question.

I would like to do NAT with a freebsd box. The box is a spare 486 dx2/50
with 40 MB that I have laying around.
What I would like to know is: Between natd and ipfilter, which is faster,
has lower memory footprint , and uses the least amount of cpu?
This is important to me because I also plan on running a small webserver on
the same box and a small ( 1 host ) domain on the box.

Thanks,
C.P.

	Yup. The simple fact that you get all of the ports on
2 of those CDs is well-worth it. Having to download all of
the ports from the net is a pain in the you know what.  Having
them at your finger tips is a great boost for productivity.

If you are moving users to another machine, you will want to be very
careful that none of the five users' UIDs match those of any users already
existing on the new machine.  I'm sure that might be an obvious concern,
but I thought I'd mention it just to be sure..  :-)

You can probably get eGroups (ex Findmail) to take in more lists.

Hi guys... one of the auction sites has a steal on ibm pc server 325's
and we are needing to upgrade several web servers...
however, we need to make sure we can use freebsd with them...

They have an on board adaptec 7880, which is supported from what I have
read,
but I am unsure of the darn PCI 10/100 ethernet card which is onboard...

anyone using freebsd and a pc server 325?

HELP :)    Please reply asap if not sooner (grin).  The boss wants to save
some bucks and I'm the one thats got to provide the answers.....

Hello
I have just completed an installation of sendmail 8.9.1 because I have a
spammer
using my mail server. It now prevents relaying like it is suppose to but I
can only send email to and from the domain of the mail server , for example 
tha mail server is mail.abc.com I can only send emails to anyone at abc.com .
I have used m4 to generate a new sendmail.cf (just the generic-bsd-4-4.m4)
I have added domains to relay-domains in /etc/mail and restarted the mail
server but 
still cannot send emails. Any help on this matter would be appreciate
before this person crahes my mail server again

Thank you

Hi,
I have a couple of PCI network cards with the Realtek 8029 chip.
(a no-name and a Genuis)

Both these cards give 1000k / sec on all of my FreeBSD machines except
my new one.

My new PII400 (BX chipset) gives just 200k / second on our lab network.
Perfect test conditions - no other network traffic.
New PC has 128 Megs of RAM, tried both AGP and PCI video card and runs
SNAP1998-0804.

Any ideas what is going on?

bye

Because it is already there.  Adding another entry for telnet
will not make any diffrence to the person asking for help.

The only way I can see this zone file working is if your named.boot
has the primary line set like

    primary ns1.test.com db.test.com

If this is the case then change the primary line to

    primary test.com db.test.com

and add to your zone file

    ns1    IN A 202.82.3.197

You mean things like paying Jordan to work on FreeBSD (and Mike Smith
too?)  They really work for WC but their duties seem pretty FreeBSD
centric.  Plus ftp.freebsd.org, http.freebsd.org and probably some
of the development machines.  And the net connection, mailing lists ...

I started buying the CD's (from Walnut Creek) more out of guilt than 
need :)

Hello,  

	What I want, eventually, is to be able to have 8 serial ports
on two different computers and be able to communicate between all of
them at the same time.  That is what I was told to do, but I have no
idea where it is going.  I started out with only one computer that had
a Boca ioAT66 card in it.  After I compiled a new kernel that recognized
the
card and created the appropriate /dev/ttyd? and /dev/cuaa? devices, I
made a straight through cable that did in fact let me use all the ports
on that card to talk to an external modem.  So based on this, I am
pretty sure that the card is installed properly.  After that, I edited
the /etc/ttys file and added the line under serial devices "ttyd5
"/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on insecure".  After I edited the
file, I restarted /sbin/init and did a ps x to verify that the /ttyd5
port was ready for queries.  Then I made another straight through cable
and verified that that one worked as well and connected the ports cuaa4
and cuaa5 together through those straight through cables and a null
modem cable.  The way everything looks, I should be able to connect to
the cuaa4 port and get a login prompt, but that doesn't happen.  All
that does happen is that the computer tells me I'm connected.  Whan I
type anything, nothing happens.  I thought about the getty on both
computers, but I don't think thats it.  The getty is running only on
port ttyd5 and not on any of the other serial ports.  From what I
gather, the /etc/gettytab file should not have to be changed.  There is
a page in the online handbook that talks about troubleshooting the
connection and I am sure that I have everything correct except for the
parity.  In the /etc/gettytab file, the lines that read "std" default to
no parity.  However, I can't find if cu uses parity or not, if it does,
the man page doesn't tell you how to change it.  I have tried using
different cables with no difference in output.  I either use the same
null modem cable that I have used a thousand times before (known good
cable) or a known-good lap-link cable.  Thank you for any help you can
offer.  

Michael

After a recent build world to 2.2.7-STABLE,
got latest mail/popper port and attempted to compile
First had problems with libtcl75.so.1,1 and tcl.h, removed these files
and installed ports/lang/tcl81
then tried to make popper again, now have the following error
 Configuring for qpopper-2.53

Hackers have been attempting to exploit the holes in qpopper 2.3, so I
do need
to upgrade.

I'm a little confused about dumpon&savecore.  I've read the manpages
about these two, and I've looked at the /etc/rc and /etc/rc.conf
stuff relating to them.  I understand the concept of saving the dump
in the swap partition and copying it out on reboot, but the timing
has me puzzled.  e.g. the 'swapon -a' is at the beginning of /etc/rc,
whereas the 'savecore /var/crash' is towards the end of /etc/rc.  If
you enable swapping to the swap partition earlier, what keeps the dump
from being overwritten before savecore can run?  What am I missing?

Hi all!

i already posted this in the news but with no answer :(

I have a litle question , i hope you can help me out...:)

i have a T1 line for the internet via one cisco router,(as5200) and a
FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE box with 1 ethernet card.
The server its a dns machine, ftp machine, mail ,etc,etc,etc,
im trying to setup the server to act as a firewall to protect the inside

network 167.114.17.
and also the server itself., so i need a second nic.

The fisrt nic have the ip 167.114.28.234 with netmask 255.255.255.192
The seond nic will have the ip 167.114.17.101 with netmask
255.255.255.224


My cisco have to gateways, one its for the modem's access (isp) and the
gateway is 167.114.28.193,also
the first ip 167.114.28.234 use this gateway for its internet
connection.
The second gateway on the cisco its 167.114.17.97 for LAN connection.

in my rc.conf i have

ifconfig_vx0="inet 167.114.28.234  netmask 255.255.255.192"
defaultrouter="167.114.28.193"
gateway_enable="YES"
router_enable="YES"

i think i have to write another line on the rc.conf to especify the ip
167.114.17.101 to the second nic

but which routes do i  need in the server so the LAN  can see the
167.114.17.101 ethernet card
for firewall purposes?

according to the (German) READEME.49 it uses Linux kernel threads, i.e.
libpthread.so.0. Hard to say what effect this would have on its runability
under the linuxulator.

I'd say the odds are pretty long.

Sounds like the remote ppp is dying.  You could *try* disabling tcp 
extensions in /etc/rc.conf, but I suspect it won't help.

Another possibility (but don't hold your breath) is if you tried 
disabling vj compression (``disable vj'' & ``deny vj'').  This is 
even more of an outside chance than disabling tcp extensions.

I suspect you'll have to hastle your ISP into enabling logging for 
your connections 'till it happens again - they may then be able to 
tell you why their side evaporated :-/

No.

Ppp won't see the incoming packets and therefore won't be able to do 
anything with them :-I

Natd is the right way to go.  I would have thought it works - what does 
your setup look like ?  Are you using ``ipfw ... divert ...'' on both 
interfaces, diverting both to the same natd, and have you got the 
same IP number assigned to both interfaces ?

The problem here as I see it is not if natd will work, but if the 
machine will be able to handle things properly.  I would have thought 
the show-stopper would happen when the machine tried to create a 
temporary route to the target machine based on the interface that an 
incoming packet from that machine arrived on....

www.dejanews.com has newsified versions of the relevant freebsd
lists that are relatively "real time".

The lists on www.freebsd.org are only updated weekly because the
indexing software currently used is as festering pit of bugs and
one of the many broken features is incremental updating of
indexes.

A few people have mentioned that CB sells a single CD instead of the 4 
which WC sells.  What I've seen is that CB does sell a cut-down version 
but it also sells "FreeBSD 2.2.7 from Walnut Creek".  The graphics depicts
2.2.6, but it appears to be the genuine product.

HI
I havent installed FreeBSD just yet but i REALLY want to. I want freeBSD
for me + windows95 on my computer for my family. When ever I use
FIPS.EXE to free up space
for freeBSD i cant get back into to windows at all. It gives me this
message--
  "While initailizing Device VFBACKUP
   VFBACKUP could not load VFD.VXD"
  Do you have anyclue what this is? I tried to get help from the freeBSD
IRC lines
but I barely get any help or they weren't there or whatever so I turn to
you.
  I hope this gives you enough info to help solve whatever the problem
is.
  Thankyou
  Tony

I see this one has gone undiscussed for a few days. I know this guy on
the list who is really good at answering all kinds of questions about
FreeBSD.

His name is Doug White. You might try talking to him to see if he can
help. :)

I'm trying to install 2.2.7 on my new system.  The NIC is a 3COM
3C590B-TX Fast Etherlink XL 10/100 BTX PCI card.  I can't get the
install disk to see the NIC.

	I tried going into the kernel config menu and deactivating all the NICs
I wasn't using.  Then, I deactivated everything that I wasn't using. 
FreeBSD still can't see the card.

	The web site says 3COM 3C590x cards are supported.

	Any ideas?

(please forgive me is this is seen twice.  when I sent it originally,
I was not subscribed, and did so quickly, but I don't know if the
mailing list SW rejects mail from non-members.  anyway...)


I'm a little confused about dumpon&savecore.  I've read the manpages
about these two, and I've looked at the /etc/rc and /etc/rc.conf
stuff relating to them.  I understand the concept of saving the dump
in the swap partition and copying it out on reboot, but the timing
has me puzzled.  e.g. the 'swapon -a' is at the beginning of /etc/rc,
whereas the 'savecore /var/crash' is towards the end of /etc/rc.  If
you enable swapping to the swap partition earlier, what keeps the dump
from being overwritten before savecore can run?  What am I missing?

i'm just wondering where the appropriate place to look for commentary on the
-BETA stuff.

-current sounds awfully busy to me, and not necessarily relative to the
testing of -BETA.

i'm trying to make use of (ie. beta test) 3.0-19980925-BETA, and notice that
the /usr/libexec/elf/ld doesn't seem to like -lsomelib for some reason.

where should i look to see if other people are working on it, or if i should
do some hacking?

	I don't have a "real" answer as to why this is happening, but I do have
a suggestion. Have you tried using 'reboot' instead of 'shutdown'?  I'm
not sure that will solve your problem, but it's worth a shot.

Good luck,

	Gotta love those man pages. :) But seriously folks, /usr/local IS the
home for all of the "after market" software on a FreeBSD system, and
less universally, on most other BSD's as well. On Sys5 you'd look in
/opt/local (usually) for the same kind of stuff. 

> I actually symlinked /etc/hosts.allow and .deny to

	I usually do that too, depending on the level of clue the other people
using the system have. :)  Another thing I do is to symlink
/usr/local/etc/ to /etc/local/. This gives me a little less to type, and
lets me back up all that stuff at the same time without having to think
about it. :)

Keep reading those man pages, 

Doug

	I end up usually buying both products. As far as I can tell, the
Cheapbytes CDROMS are essentially the first of the Walnut Creek CDROMs.
They boot the same, they load and look the same. I've been buying the
Cheapbyte cdroms and loaning them out or giving them away to my Windows
using friends, works great for that... :) I don't want to lose the Walnut
Creek ones.

Set router_enable to
router_enable="NO"

The ifconfig's will set up the needed routes.

You will need to tell the Cisco that it can reach 167.114.17.96/27
via 167.114.28.234

ip route 167.114.17.96 255.255.255.240 167.114.28.234

Work is in progess to amend the Linuxulator as necessary to get this to
work properly.  Keep an eye out for details -- when we get this working,
it'll be a major feat for the Project.

in spite of my rather negative reply, I'm planning to give it a try as soon
as I can grab the 58 MB file at work (at ~ 1.5 kB/sec I'm _not_ going to
do this at home, way too expensive here in Germany). I'll report to the
list.

You may need to install BootEasy on the first disk manually.  Sysinstall
has a habit of putting it on the wrong disk.

Swap the FreeBSD and the storage disk.  Your BIOS can'tboot the FreeBSD
volume; it can only see the first two disks.

No RELEASE supports the 2940U2 (aka AIC-789X) series controllers, however
they are supported by the new CAM layer in the coming 3.0.  Patches are
available for 2.2-STABLE at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/cam.

The fact that no TokenRing cards are currently supported by FreeBSD is a

Your CDROM drive is not being cooperative.  Check the boot messages for
the IDE CD and make sure it's being found.

You download lots of files, and they're split tar archives.  See

Take the loss in hand and try something else.  Popper has *known* and

The 905B requires the xl driver in -STABLE and -CURRENT.  The xl driver
isn't available in any release (yet).

This is a SysCommander-ism.  I believe there is an option in the ALT-F10
config menu to disable this behavior.

Find any network program (preferably small), grab it's source, and read
away.

I suggest finding a good book on UNIX networking; there are several, make
sure you pick one up that explains the Berkeley UNIX / BSD-style sockets,
not SYSV streams.

3c905 != 3c905B.  They are very different revisions of the same card.  
The xl driver is available for 2.2-STABLE and -CURRENT.

Token ring is not supported in any way at current.

The sound driver guru recommends against Creative products until they send
us specifications. See if you can find a cheap Crystal- or Yamaha-based
card; all of them work very well and are readily detected by the pcm
driver.

Make sure that the dumping host can rsh into oscar successfully, and/or if
dump is failing on oscar.

	Assuming you're talking about pico, the man page answers that question.
Type 'man pico' at a shell prompt.

``controller scbus0'' is required if you have SCSI devices compiled in.
I'd HIGHLY recommend leaving the SCSI disk devices (cd0, od0, st0)
uncommented in case you run across these devices and want to attach them
to your system without rebuilding the kernel first.

In the future, post the compile errors when having trouble with failing
kernel builds.

The problem has been fixed.  I noticed a few other postings with people having 
+
problems relating to rshd so I got the revised source, recompiled and now 
everything is chipper.

	Look in the comments at the very top of the config file. For future
reference, majordomo questions should go to
majordomo-users@GreatCircle.COM, AFTER you've read all of the
documentation. 

Good luck,

	I suspect that you are really looking at two seperate errors. First,
make sure that you have set up your sendmail to receive mail from all
the hostnames that you want it to. You should have entries that look
like this in your sendmail.cf file, or the appropriate hostnames in your
sendmail.cw file if you use that instead:

Cwtest.com
Cwns1.test.com

etc.

	BTW, DON'T use test.com, it's a real domain. Once you get your box
connected to the internet having entries like this lying about can be a
problem. I don't have the RFC with the "safe" test names handy, but I
think that example.com should be safe. 

	The second problem is that you don't have an A record for your test.com
domain. This is a problem sometimes.

	Don't use 0 as the priority for an MX record, it hoses some MTA's. Use
1 instead. 

Add the following:

			IN A 127.0.0.1
ns1			IN A 127.0.0.1

	That should fix you up, unless something else is broken.

Good luck,

Doug

Hmm...

Isn't there a known problem booting from 48M?

This information is covered in the FAQ or the Handbook, I'm not sure which
one.  Anyhow, this is the basic course of action:

	1.  Fdisk the drive, create as many partitions as you want.
	I assume that you want 2, one for Windows one for FreeBSD.

	2.  Install Windows.

	3.  Install FreeBSD.  Somewhere in the installation, FreeBSD
	will install it's bootloader (booteasy).  

It's just that simple.  Read the FAQ/Handbook first though, I havn't done
this for a long time, so my information may not be complete.  

Good luck!

I am having trouble with ssh-1.2 as built from the ports tree.  ssh
seems to truncate files in a certain size range whenever you use it to
transfer data using a pipe or a redirect. Here is a way to repeat it
on my machine (both machines are running 2.2.6), with a comparison to
the same command using rsh: 

---
localhost$ rsh remote_host dd count=61 if=/dev/zero | wc -c
61+0 records in
61+0 records out
31232 bytes transferred in 2.557135 secs (12214 bytes/sec)
   31232
localhost$ ssh remote_host dd count=61 if=/dev/zero | wc -c
   30720
localhost$ 
---

Note how the statistics report that is normally written by dd to
stderr is missing too. If you drop the count by one, you will get a
good write, but the statistics report is still missing.  Drop it by
one more to 59, and everything works fine.

Any thoughts?

Please cc me in reply, as I am not currently subscribed to the list.

Thanks.

They floating point performance is substandard. 
They run *hot*, very,very *hot*.
They, in my personal experience, have a high failure rate.

Most importantly, for an extra 10-15 dollars, you can have a genuine
Intel, or an AMD.

Personally, you couldn't *pay* me to run a Cyrix processor in any of my
machines.

I guess it's not a problem (hasn't caused any noticable trouble so far),
but I'm curious as to what it means }:-|

Anybody know what this is?  This is with ppp from an all-ELF -current

Trying the `From Dos' partitition method of install. I'm dropping the
ball at the point where you are expected to select which partition
holds the dos directory with the install files.

Being familiar with Linux mainly, I don't recoganize the naming
conventions:

 I have 2 HDD .  One, all win95 with 3 partions C D E,
Number two is all most all linux with /dev/hdb/ 1-8  /dev/hdb3/ now
set to `a5' file system and labeled BSD/386.  (done confusedly with
the install fdisk editor) 

After using the handy `setup.exe' to make a boot floppy.  Then having
repeated problems with preping the source files.  (corrrupted, wrong
size etc) I may now have clean files (only installing the `bin'(basic)
directory)  But when the install gets to the point where you select a
dos address...

Theres the rub. I'm being shown three possibilities.  Two columns, one
colored yellow the other black, same entry in both columns.
wd0s1    wd0s1
wd0s2    wd0s2
wd1s1    wd1s1
 I 've tried all three at one time or another.  None have worked.  How
can one translate between Dos C, D, E and the system used by FreeBSD
or does it even see Dos partitions at all?

Do the above represent C D E or is wd1 a different disk?

I'd like to flesh out this install by finishing up with an FTP update
later on.  But, attempting an ftp install to begin with.  I wasn't
able to get a connection started.  Once the information (IP address
Domain name etc) was supplied.  I was shown a screen that told me
adamantly not to press `enter'until I'd made a connection, and
directed me to Alt-F3 to do so.  Going to Alt F3 I found no way to
continue. ... IE give a phone number username, password etc.  The only
command suggested to use is `term' which got me a `ready' prompt.  But
seemingly no way to do anything.  Return to the previous screen or
pressing F1 have not shown a way to connect.

What are the steps to making a connection?  Where do you put a phone
number etc?  What is the application that does the connection?  I
recognized nothing similar to minicom, telnet, or other ppp type
connecting devices.
Seems a different world altogether.

	Depends on what you have access to. If you've got access to the aliases
file, do it like this:

If your using a newer version of SendMail (don't know when it started
supporting this), just put all the mail addresses in a .forward file in the
home directory for the account that needs the forwarding.

Is there any way to configure the "Booteasy" FreeBSD boot manager so it
could perhaps pause and/or wait indefinetely instead of booting the last
booted OS? What about changing the default OS so that, for example, FreeBSD
is always booted by default instead of Win98, no matter what booted last..?

If there are no ways to configure the boot manager, will other boot
managers work with FreeBSD? What about the OS/2 Boot Manager?

Thanks, Anders.

I have FreeBSD 2.2.7 running on a Pentium computer with a
QIC-80 tape drive daisy chained on the floppy controller. The
tape drive was in a Conner box when I bought it about two
years ago. It has worked fine under DOS, Win95 and WinNT.
FreeBSD recognizes it as device ft0. When I execute this
command line:

    mt -f /dev/ft0 rewind

The tape drive light comes on and the tape drive whirs for a
few moments and it appears that the tape is rewinding, but
I then get the error message:

    mt: /dev/ft0 rewind:  Device not configured

Can someone tell me what's going on here?

Hi,

  Is there any way that I can share an int between a parent process and
some child processes? I'm writing a program which must do about this:
the children (created by a fork of course) increase a shared integer
variable when they're busy, and when they're not busy anymore, decrease
the shared integer with 1. The parent makes some non-educated guesses
about this; when all children are busy, the parent forks some more to
create some leeway.. I think I can do this with a shared variable (if
this kind of thing exists anyway).. If there's no such thing as a
'shared variable', could it be done in another way (like stdin and
stdout or something?)

thanx for the repy if you should decide to....

Sorry, but this one is not supported. No device driver.  I tried real hard
and then got a new Intel card.  The Intel cards work real well.  It is the
'B' that gets you and many others

Hi, I'm having a little trouble getting my ppp to work. I'm pretty sure my
modem is responding but not quite sure how to enable ppp and get it working.
I recently switch to FreeBSD, before I was running Linux, Slackware and I
had a chat script to get on the net. Would this be of any help? Well I'm
wondering if you can help me and send some step-by-step procedures, thanks
very much.

Hi Jordi,

I had trouble with the fdimage prog.  Try using rawrite.exe from dos instead.

Good Luck

Need more detail. Are you sure you're grabbing the same version bin.ai
as all the other bin.a[a-z]s are in? Know what I mean? Stable, release,
current, current beta - which version?

If you're using csh or friends, .cshrc or .tcshrc etc. If sh or friends,
.profile. I think bash uses .bashrc and on and on...

I am taking a course in C and have zip for previous programming
experience.  I need some recommendations on the better books that are
available for learning C. I learn well by reading and would prefer books
that are well written with clear explanations of the material.  I am told
that the prof is not that great of a teacher, so be prepared to dig the
stuff out on your own.  And I thought that those kind only taught the
undergrad classes. ;-)

BTW, the official text for the class is The New C Primer.  Any opinions?

Also what tools (ports) will I have to have installed on my FreeBSD
system to run and compile some of my work?  The prof wants me to work in
Winblows, and I explained about the bad case of hives that I get every
time I boot that S--- up.

Any and all advice is very much appreciated.

Regards,
Frank

You don't say but I'm assuming you have one disk you are trying to install
both os's on. If I were you, I would reinstall w95 first and leave adequate
room on the disk for Fbsd to install its partition. I seem to remember there
is a problem using fips with w95. BTW I have this setup and it works just
fine. I use the free bootinst.exe boot manager.

Good luck,

i was trying to install freebsd on a 
old 486 to test and it had 3 
scsi hdd's, i kept getting
error c:1456 > 1023   error msg.

i thought it was a bios limitation.
but i was able to install it on the IDE 
disk and thought there gotta be something 
going on here.

doing a fdisk /mbr with the 3 drives 
plugged in didnt help but
doing it with the new seagate 1 gig
did.

i am able to have my first 2 small drives
as / and /var and /swap and my 1 gig
as /usr  now !!

I guess Seagate puts a non-detectable
MBR on their drives because i wasn't
even able to install dos onto that
drive until i did the fdisk /mbr
on it.

I kept getting "no bootable partitions"
but fdisk reported it just fine.

So what drive does fdisk /mbr clean
if there are more than one drive
installed in the machine?

I thought ALL but i was wrong. (I think)

There's the shmat(2) and friends. You could also do this using pipes
or sockets from parent to children.

Only if you tell it to (recommended :-)

You'll need a free disk partition to install FreeBSD on.  This could
be a problem.  Check out the FreeBSD handbook for details
(http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/handbook.html).

I don't know what he's doing either, but I consider this the worst
possible solution.  Who knows what he's going to lose by reinstalling
Microsoft?  Yes, I know Microsoft themselves frequently recommend this
procedure, but that's an admission of defeat, not a description of a
desirable solution.

Yes, I think there was something.

The real answer to Anthony is:  "Tell us more about your system and
what you have done to it so far".  I can't answer this question
myself, since I don't do Microsoft, but I'm sure others will if they
are given the background they need.

Hi,
My company intends to become its own internet provider and I realise that
we have a lot of learning to do! I have had a look at MS NT4 Server with MS
Backoffice, but it costs a bomb and basically crippled an otherwise OK
Pentium 120MHz machine (Boy, did it slow down!!).

I have been getting the FreeBSD newsletters for a while and have to admit
that they go straight over my head on the whole, but some info sticks, so
there's hope for me yet :)

It looks like FreeBSD is fast and efficient. My questions...

1. Is the learning curve horrendous for someone who is only versed in DOS
and Windows?

2. Will there be any compatibility problems integrating a FreeBSD machine
into a Win'95 peer-to-peer network?

3. Does FreeBSD have a firewall built-in or is that available as a
similarly-priced add-on?

4. We want to offer on-line transaction facilities eventually. Is FreeBSD
up to the task, especially in regard to security issues?

5. I would prefer to purchase the CD-ROM version of FreeBSD, is a printed
manual also available?

I apologise in advance if I have asked some questions that might be
answered by browsing your website, but spare time is a scarce commodity for
me just now and I have not had enough of it to browse in a productive manner.

Kind regards,
Joe Raine.

I don't know if I can get you 'where you want to go today, MS (Tm) but I'll
take a shot. 48 megs is not a problem. I have one box running 48 megs.

When you say you get to kernel (sp) setup, must you config to get a boot?
What happens if you just let the boot floppy run without any changing the
config? Do you get to the install menus? Pay close attention to the probe
messages while the boot floppy is running, does everything look like it is
seen? You are not overclocking or anything weird are you?

I have never installed or booted from a cdrom so I cannot comment much in
that area. Give it another shot and I bet you'll get there, maybe not not
today, but eventually :)

Luck,

No.  I don't know it.  Have you taken a look?  It might be the answer
to your first question, and it's obviously a cheap alternative.

It's been a few years since I learnt C, and I can't remember the pain
too much except for wondering why it was so much more primitive than
Algol, so my recollections aren't necessarily typical.  But I did like
K&R.  Maybe you will too.

You can get by very nicely with the tools supplied with the base
system, and many (most?) of the FreeBSD developers do.  I personally
prefer the Emacs editor to vi, but that's a whole different holy war.
Apart from that, I also just use the standard tools.

ISTR that aliases must have a netmask of 255.255.255.255, but that may
be only if you have them in the same network, which is not the case
here.  In any case, you probably need to set a route to the
128.10.25.* subnet.

Where do you get this network address from?  It looks as if it's in
the CS department of Purdue University.

Yeah, I have the feeling that tar may not have created the
appropriate /dev files. A FEELING. If these were on slices
3 or 4 I would say, "I KNOW".

Boot back up single user, mount -u -w / ; cd /dev and do
sh MAKEDEV all 
and then

sh MAKEDEV sd0s2a

Do one for each N and M in sdNsMa that you have use for.
(MAKEDEV sd0s1a takes care of [r]sd0s1[a-h] )

If the preceding doesn't work, then I'm all out of ideas.

> c) other suggestions appreciated.

For fun, on a working 2.2.6 system:

	cd /dev
	tar cpf /dev/null . >/dev/null 2>/tmp/err.log

	cat /tmp/err.log

sample output:

tar: rsd0s3: minor number too large; not dumped
tar: rsd0s3c: minor number too large; not dumped
tar: sd0s3: minor number too large; not dumped
tar: rsd0s4: minor number too large; not dumped
tar: rsd0s4c: minor number too large; not dumped
tar: sd0s4: minor number too large; not dumped
(many more, and not just scsi drive stuff).

Is there a magic switch for tar that avoids this? Quien sabe?

Strange.  Sometimes things work OK for me, sometimes they don't:

I'd guess that it's a timing problem.  Maybe the secure channel goes
away before the final data (including the dd summary) gets across.
I'd recommend a bug report.

Above, you said that both boards were detected.  This looks very much
like the second one hasn't been detected.

Definitely.  That can never work.

You need to tell the system about the I/O configuration.  The GENERIC
kernel only supports one 3C509, so you'll have to add a line like this
to your kernel config file:

device ep1 at isa? port 0x310 net irq 11 vector epintr

Then rebuild and install the kernel, and try again.

I have bulk of data(there are many many directories.) to backup,
but I  only want to backup the modified part.

1.    How can I do that ?
2.    Is there any tools availble ?
3.    Can the command "tar" work for this purpose?
4.     Is there any method to do increment backup?

Please help me.  thanks in advance.

I use it without problems on one of my two systems at home.  Since that
system has a 6.4GB Western Digital, I had to use the latest fdisk from
the most recent service pack for Warp4, so it could correctly handle
that large of a drive.  After installing the service pack, I created
the three utility diskettes from system setup...

OS/2's boot manager is also bundled with Partition Magic.  I do not
know if an update is available to handle drives larger than, what,
6.1GB (I think that's the threshhold).
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

Difficult to say.  It depends on you, and it depends on what you
consider horrendous.  Others have done it, and I personally think that
I can understand the stuff better than Microsoft.  Take heart, anyway:
it's not insurmountable.

Doubtless.  Depending on what you want to do, they could be easy or
not-so-easy to solve.  Again, it's been done many times.

Yes.  There are a couple on the distribution CDs.  They're technically
add-ons.

There's "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition
(http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm).  It's expensive to ship
from the USA (1600 pages); I can send you a copy if you want.

FreeBSD will run quite nicely on a 120MHz system.

The short answer is YES.  But you don't have to learn everything to get
started.  And the payoff is well worth the effort.  The basic problem,
and I'm really not trying to insult you, is that you haven't learned
anything about real computer operating systems yet.  DOS and Winblows
are just barely better than CPM.  They are attempting to grow up to be
real operating systems, but they'll never make it.

You'll have to use Samba in the ports collection to use it as an SMB
server/client.  But you can also connect via TCP/IP.  I use FreeBSD at
home as my Internet gateway.  My Winblows machines connect thru it to
the Internet, as does OS/2, and other FreeBSD boxes.

Yes. The firewall costs the same as FreeBSD.  It's freaking free, dude.

FreeBSD can be more secure than any Winblows platform to date.

I recommend you get the book, "The Complete FreeBSD" from Walnut Creek
CDROM.  See http://www.cdrom.com/ or get there via
http://www.freebsd.org/

And my recommended reading list for all new system admins...
You need to read about the hierarchical UNIX filesystems and "mount
points".  These concepts should be covered in UNIX introductory books,
such as "Understanding UNIX" "A Conceptual Guide" published by Que (my
copy is dated 1983).  If you are *really* new to UNIX and computers in
general, i.e., your introduction to computers was by
IBM/Microsoft/Intel, then you should read an introductory book aimed at
users, such as the one mentioned.

Another book aimed at users that I found really good are written by a
guy named Sobell.  I think his first name is Mark.  I'll look these
books up on http://www.amazon.com/ and put the info at the bottom of
the page...

If you are going to be the system administrator for a FreeBSD system,
then you also need a book describing system admin.  There are a
plethora of system admin books on the market, but for FreeBSD, the one
most applicable, IMHO, is "Unix System Administration Handbook" by Evi
Nemeth, Garth Snyder, and Scott Seebass and published by Prentice Hall.
 My first edition was published in 1989, but they printed a second
edition in 1995.

In addition to the following books, check the following documents for

1. i sincerely apologize in complete humility for my problems
   with lynx.  after thorough testing, i found my problems
   to be my own - due to the use of <FONT COLOR="">'s without
   closing </FONT> tags.  i didn't suspect that changing the
   color of a FONT would've caused irregular spacing.
   the implications are fair, and semi-obvious.

2. i think FreeBSD & Lynx programmers are the best.

3. i finally would like to stress to new users that
   you are messing with the best in the world.  and you
   better be sure of what you are messing with before
   you are forced to retract in disgrace like me :(

an example is below.  remove the <FONT COLOR="#FFFFFF">,
and the problem is fixed.  it could've also been done
by adding a </FONT> to match.  be sure to begin and
end outside of a PRE block, or begin and end inside
a PRE block.  never begin in a PRE block and end
outside a PRE block, or vice versa.

Simple things first, wd1 is a different physical disk than wd0. Wd0 is the
master drive and wd1 is the slave.

C,D,E et al are utterly meaningless to FreeBSD. C,D, and E only have
meaning in windows land. One thing I do not get from your description
though. You said you have three DOS partitions on the first drive? It
doesn't look like you do or I would see wd0s1, wd0s2, and wd0s3.

Did you mean to say that you have two partitions (C, D) on the first drive
plus one partition on the E drive?

wd0 is the first IDE drive. <== Your windows stuff.
wd1 is the second IDE drive. <== Your Linux stuff.

The FreeBSD naming breaks down like this.

wd-X-sX-(abc...)

wd  	<== The type of drive. In this case IDE. (sd for scsi)
wd0 	<== The number of drive. The first IDE drive.
wd0s1 	<== The DOS "(s)lice" number. The first DOS partition on the first
	IDE drive.
wd0s1a  <== The FreeBSD partition designator. This is the "a" (commonly
	holds the / file system) partition on the first DOS slice on the
	first IDE drive.

Example: 
wd1s2c 	<== The "c" FreeBSD partition on the second DOS slice on the
	second IDE drive.

Assuming that you want to wipe out windows :P and keep Linux and FreeBSD
you will be installing FreeBSD into wd0s1 or wd0s2.

This is PPP land. I am no modem guru. What you will do is enter "term" and
then enter commands like "atdt foo-isp#" and login. Please consult and
authoritative source here.

Please note that there are no form fields to fill out here, i.e. no place
to put a number. The application that will connect you is "term" which is
your PPP connecting device.

I did my C class on Mac. Everytime I would ask a teaching assistant for
help they would fetch my code over to a time share box and compile under
unix.

"Why did you do that?" I asked.

"Unix won't crash if your program is broke," they replied.

(This, by the way, was part of my continuing ascent to gurudom.)

You will spend less time rebooting your computer if you build under
FreeBSD. This is my limited experience. YMMV.

Tell us what you are typing to try to get fdimage working. What error
messages are you getting? We need more info.

Be sure to follow http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html closely.
These instructions are very good.

And don't even click on these links. You don't need to if you follow the
above instructions.

You do not need to understand the "impossible". The installation disc (1.4
MB) is the only thing you need to manually download. FreeBSD will take
care of all of the tricky stuff.

RPM is pretty linux specific. You may have better luck asking a linux
forum how to set it up.

Just off the top of my head, I would say that /var/local doesn't even
exist on your FreeBSD system. This is just a guess.

Yes.  But we've all been there.  I was.  I still consider myself a newbie.

Not that I know of.  I use my FreeBSD box as a firewall/gateway for my 
home subnet.  No comms issue whatsoever.

Built-in.  Comes free.  It's called ipfw.  I use it and recommend it.  
There's also something called ipf, but I know little about it.

I see no reason why not.  But I have no experience in this area.  Perhaps 
the security mailing list is better suited to this question.

Yes.  Buy it.  I wish I did before I installed.  It's called The Complete 
FreeBSD and has lots of good stuff in it.  Unfortunately, it's written by 
an ocker.  :P

No worries.  My website might have some handy hints on getting started.  
It also shows you what not to do (e.g. The CDROM story; kids, don't try 
this at home).

If I upgrade to bind 8, will my machine recognise domain names starting
with a digit as per rfc1123?  How about underscores as per informational
rfc1035?

Anthony, try booting into a DOS prompt (F8 while booting), and run FIPS from
there.  Of course, before running something as potentially destructive as
FIPS, backup all data first.

The slowdown is the least of your worries.  :-)  In your current situation,
you probably can't even imagine the frustration of a Unix admin, used to
almost unlimited power and flexibility, faced with the "can't get there from
here" Microsoft design philosophy.

Best advice I can give:  Set up a FreeBSD box and play, play, play...

> and Windows?

Yes, the learning curve _can_ be steep.  But the steeper the curve upwards,
the easier the slide down the other side.  It might take you several times as
long to become familiar with a UNIX interface as with NT, but once you have
done so, you'll never want to exchange the flexibility and power for
anything.  In my daily job, I'm sometimes expected to perform up to 27 minor
miracles a day (it's in my contract somewhere).  The very way NT was put
together, the very philosopy behind it, would turn some of these minor tasks
into week-long programming projects.

Shouldn't, depending on what you need to do.  Samba does a very good job of
integrating with NetBEUI networks.  There _can_ be problems if you want to
(say) share password databases across systems.

It's a misconception that a firewall is a single "thing" in a black box.
FreeBSD comes with powerful IP filtering and diverting capabilities.  That
can be a part of a firewall setup.  There are many packet-level and
application-level proxy servers available for FreeBSD.  That can be a part of
a firewall.  Furthermore, there are several free firewall "toolkits", as well
as commercial products along the same lines for FreeBSD.

If you're new to the idea of firewalls, I can sincerely recommend the book
"Building Internet Firewalls" by Chapman and Zwicky, published by O'Reilly &
Associates.  (http://www.ora.com/)

You can configure Apache with SSL support for secure transactions, or you can
purchase the (excellent) commercial Stronghold secure server.  Various other
alternatives also exist.

Greg's book.  :-)  And almost anything published by the above-mentioned
O'Reilly firm that seems relevant.

Still, if you decide that this might be the course for you to take, I would
suggest giving the site (or a mirror close to you) a thorough once-over.

Hey all --

I have a freebsd box and a sparc running solaris sitting here waiting for me
to create a network.  I've been having my problems, however.  I have a 5 port
hub which has an uplink port.  I have a cable modem connection, which I
currently have set up with just my freebsd box using dhcp.  

1)  would it be possible to hook the cable modem into the uplink port, have
the freebsd box and sparc in two other ports, and have the freebsd box use
natd and act as a gateway?  Or am I going to need a second ethernet card on
the gateway box? 

2)  If that is possible, can anyone point me in the right direction?  I've
yet to find information concerning uplink ports on hubs in combination with
internal networks...

Thanks all,

Read the man page for dump(8).

Most of what you say can also be accomplished by clever usage of tar, if you
don't want to go into the complexities of dump.

For instance, to do an incremental backup, write a little script which does a
complete backup, and then touches a file (say, /usr/local/etc/lastbackup).

Then, to do an incremental backup, you can do:

find / \( -path '/tmp' -prune \) -o \
       \( -path '/proc' -prune \) -o \
       \( -name '*.core' -prune \) -o \
       \( -name 'a.out' -prune \) -o \
       \( ! -type d -newer /usr/local/etc/lastbackup -print |) \
| tar cvTf - /dev/nrst0 >/var/log/backup.incremental.log 2>&1

... or similar.

After writing what I did about this question ("it depends"), it
occurred to me that I should have elaborated.

I find configuring Microsoft systems complicated because you only see
a little bit at a time; it's like standing outside the place where
things are happening and looking in through a window.  You can often
configure UNIX systems this way too, but the real way is to get inside
and look around.  Instead of playing with pieces of a jigsaw puzzle,
you have a list of things to do.  The best example is the main
configuration file for FreeBSD systems, /etc/rc.conf, which contains a
list of parameters to set for system startup.  Want to check your
system config?  That's the place to go.  Did you forget something?
Then it'll be in /etc/rc.conf, but wrong.  By contrast, the visual
approach requires you to have some written documentation (a book, for
example) to tell you all the places you need to check.

So I suppose the real question is: can you read, can you handle a
checklist?  Then you'll find UNIX easier than Microsoft, *once* you've
got used to the change.

This is no cheaper than from Walnut Creek CDROM, who use the proceeds
of the sale in part to fund FreeBSD development.  If you're not going
to have any disadvantage from buying direct from Walnut Creek, please
do so.  In Joe's case, of course, there are two significant
disadvantages: first, shipping is surface mail (3 months), and
secondly it costs anyway.  But the same would apply to Amazon or any
other US-based bookshop.

And also the website below.  There's some instructions there on how to

I have a problem with teTeX-0.4 and FreeBSD 2.2.7. I have installed the
package but xdvi nor dvips works properly. MakeTeXPK creates fonts
in /tmp but xdvi or dvips complains with the following output:

"xdvi"
kpathsea: Running MakeTeXPK cmcsc10 540 600 0+540/600 ljfour

I've just installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 on my Inspiron laptop with NeoMagic video
adapter, and I'm having a little trouble getting it properly configured. Can
anyone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks,

I don't know what an uplink port is.  That stated:

No.  It won't work.  [But I stand to be corrrected].  I suggest you get a 
second network card for your freebsdbox.

Got a chance to buy this system. What ya think, how well would FreeBSD
perform on this as compared to a Single P200 chip with the rest of the
hardware the same ?  I would run -current elf with SMP.

   Mid-tower case, 7 bay
     Dual socket 8 motherboard, Ultra-wide onboard SCSI, onboard 10/100
NIC
     2 Pentium Pro 150 cpu's
     32 meg RAM
     Fujitsu 1 Gig Fast WIDE scsi HD
     keyboard, floppy, video
     NT 4.0 server

They want $495.00, sound like a decent deal?

Dump is not so complex. Once it is setup (one time process), plus the
restore command in interactive mode is fairly simple to use.

Compared to that find statement dump is easy. :-)

Phj,

Dump will allow you to do a backup on a volume level. For example you will
be able to backup "/". Dump has 9 levels of increment. 0 means everything,
1 means changed since last 0 level backup. Each level backs up files
changed since the previous level backup.

Tar works at a file level. This gives you the advantage of been able to
exclude unnecessary files at the expense of having to use find to produce
the list for you.

I recommend you get familiar with both.
For instance I use dump for my full backup and incrememtals ever couple of
days. I use tar for daily backups of essential configuration files which
are both critical and small (i.e. configuration files for ppp, /etc/hosts,
....). This daily tar fits in a floppy and I have 5 floppies I rotate.

I have asked this question at leat 4 times to this list.
Have NEVER got a single answer. :-(
I have also asked where the souce is so I could do the changes myself. No
replies either.

The OS/2 boot manager works, but has a problem of it's own. It uses a
whole partition for itself. On a PC you can only have 4 partitions per
physical HD.

***

For what I have seen, IBM has only Intel chip based networking ( Etherexpress
Pro 100/+/B ) or AMD PCNet based onboard ( lnc ). The better way is to boot
the machine with corresponding floppy, I suggest using one from the latest
BETA. I have several IBM PC-servers lying around, but I'm sad I never got a
chance to try them under FreeBSD, they run LoseNT, blaah.

If the SCSI and Ethernet chips are supported, this seems a very fine
system (I personnally would be overjoyed by the erasure of Win$ NT by
FreeBSD).
Then you'll have to check about the support of the motherboard chipset as
far as SMP is concerned.

PS : regarding performance, all depends on what it will have to do (for a
single user, I don't see what the gain will be - Is Xfree threaded ?)

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.7 release, and trying to add multithreading to
an existing program.

I have a problem with the send/sendto call:  send() sometimes returns an
incomplete count.

The file descriptor is not set as non blocking by my program (of course,
I guess that the underlying threads implementation sets O_NONBLOCK, but
this should be transparent).

The program does not actually create threads right now, it's just linked
with libc_r. When linking with the normal libc, everything works fine.
It also works fine under SOLARIS and LINUX (both with and without the
threads library). The non threaded version of the program has
transferred several terabytes of data to/from FreeBSD servers, so I
guess it's more or less working.

 Also, I checked uthread_sendto.c and uthread_write.c, and they do work
different. write() loops until the byte count is complete, sendto() does
not. 

So my question is: 

 Is it normal that send() could return an incomplete count on a blocking
descriptor ?

The manual page is not clear on the subject. The kernel comments are not
exactly clear either. It seems to me that the normal sosend() will loop
until something bad happens or everything is sent.

Of course my workaround is to use write() except for OOB, but this
doesn't look clean.

In the handbook is a section about backups :

That should get you started.

Also, does /var/local/lib/rpm exist?  Or is there a symlink to
/usr/local/lib/rpm?  Worked for me.  You might also look into the rpm
source and change the rpm dirs if it suits you.

Snicker. I set up an ISP with a pair of P120-class boxes. It's
currently serving about 1000 users with dial-in authentication
(RADIUS), web, mail, DNS. They've been running almost two years now
with no problems, and little intervention.

Depends on how much time you have to put into it and how interested
you are in learning. If you don't have enough time to learn it
yourself, you should find someone who does, or at least have rapid
access to a UNIX/net geek. The biggest obstacle is the MS small-world
(small office LAN) mindset: the net's a big place but it's nice that
IP plays well on the LAN and WAN.

Check Samba, free from the ports collection, if you're intersted in
file/printer sharing. There's a Samba book now which you might find
helpful.

Same thing: check ipfilter and ipfw.

Like cash transactions? Or real-time high-volume stuff? For the former
at least you might check the port of Apache+SSLeay.  Security and
robustness are two major factors in my use of FreeBSD.

Just make sure you set aside enough time when you're setting this up
and learning. The lists are good resources.

Woke up this morning to find one of my FreeBSD boxes offline.
Rebooting produced the following :

/dev/rwd0s1a: clean, 32630 free
Can't open /dev/rsd0s1e: device not configured
/dev/rsd0s1e: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM
/dev/rsd0s1e: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
/dev/rwd0s1f: clean, 3086375 free
/dev/rwd0s1e: clean, 19596 free
Automatic file system check failed... help!

fsck also failed with the following error :
Can't open /dev/rsd0s1e. Device not configured.

I've rebuilt the parity on the external RAID array - it reported
zero errors !  The RAID system's patrol service also reported
zero errors. So, the 3 HD's that comprise the array seem to be fine
...  yet I feel the problem lies in the RAID and not the FreeBSD
box.  

Anyway, just wondering if anyone recognises these symptoms or has
any other ideas ? I guess it could be the RAID controller (which 
will be a bummer since StreamLogic is now out of business, last I
heard).

real time kernal for linux ported to FBSD? Any one working on it??
if not would it be worth while to organise a discussion ???

FBSD Is so clean!

My FreeBSD machine is acting a little bit strange:

Did I run into some resource limit? If so, what do I need to change in the
kernel? 

Or is it some other problem? If you need more information to answer this
question, please ask. I would be glad to provide you with more details.

I found a *non* accellerated server from a Linux guy a while back and
compiled it into the link kit for FreeBSD. I posted the info and
config I used here about three weeks ago. Might want to SEARCH the
www.freebsd.org archives.

Xig.com sells a nice accellerated server for around $200 I think.

If you can get them to remove NT4.0Server and refund the $500 list
price that it supposedly costs, then it would be a *great* deal. :-)

I just bought some pieces which might be faster/cheaper:

$115	K6/2-300
$ 85	FIC 503+ mobo (with 1M L2 cache, can do 100Mhz bus with the K6/2-300)

Other bits I priced:

$85	64MB PC-100 10ns RAM DIMM (can operate at 100Mhz)
$20	box, power supply
$ 5	keyboard
$15	floppy
$115	Matrox Millenium II AGP 8MB (high end performance and price)

Disk is cheap but unfortunately SCSI seems to be about twice the price
of IDE/UDMA. 

I would guess the K6/2-300 would be significantly faster than a
PPro-150 because of the high speed L2 cache path, and because
multi-CPU scaling is not linear, faster than 2xPPro150.

By my math, I'd say even as cheap as this appears, it's not as great a
deal as buying the latest components. At least I hope so for my own
sake! :-)

Computer HW is such a bad investment, but they're so cheap I can't
help myself!

Haven't tried FreeBSD on the 325 yet, but we have a raft of them here
running Solaris-2.5.1 and 2.6. I'd think if it could run solaris it
could run FreeBSD. Sorry, just anecdotal.

New to programming, you need a general computer book that talks about
computer architectures, you need a book that talks about data structures,
and then you need a beginners book for C.  If you're going to go past that
you'll eventually want books on object oriented programming.  But if you're
just talking about a great reference for C, I recommend "C: A Reference
Manual", Samuel P. Harbison and Guy L. Steele.  I think it's in its forth
edition.  (Do I have those its-it's backwards?)

Jason;

RPM keeps a library of all the rpms installed, dependencies,
etc...  As you noticed, the /var/local/lib/rpm/packages.rpm
is not there.  RPM has --rebuilddb and --initdb options to
rebuild and construct a rpm database.  I recommend trying a
--initdb if you did not already have a database going (which
will be overwritten if you did).  In the future if you see any
corruption, you might try a --rebuilddb (rpm --rebuilddb).  The
--dbpath allows you to specify the path of the rpm database.
So, you can do a "rpm --initdb --dbpath /var/local/lib/rpm".
You might have to check to see if /var/local/lib/rpm is indeed
created by the FreeBSD package install.

We are certified RedHat engineers if you need anything, just let
me know.

Good Luck,
Scott

   You've run out of process slots. Assuming that this wasn't caused by a
run-away forking process, then you probably just need to increase the
"maxusers" parameter in your kernel config file (and rebuild the kernel).

I understand the C,D,E is windows speak, but am asking if the listed 
partitions are the same ones.

That was my take too.  So the offered dos partitions are  confusing
since there are none on wd1

No.

The linux bootup screens give this picture of the bios setup:
(pared down for brevity)

o Pri. Master  Disk : LBA ,Mode 4, 3166MB Parallel Port(s)  : 378
o Pri. Slave   Disk : LBA ,Mode 4, 3166MB EDO DRAM at Row(s): 0
o Sec. Master  Disk : CDROM,Mode 3        SDRAM at Row(s)   : None
o Sec. Slave   Disk : None                L2 Cache Type     :

Looking at the respective drives with linux fdisk gives this picture.

o Disk /dev/hda: 128 heads, 63 sectors, 767 cylinders
o Units = cylinders of 8064 * 512 bytes
o 
o    Device Boot   Begin    Start   End   Blocks   Id  System
o /dev/hda1   *        1        1   257  1036192+   6  DOS 16-bit >=32M
o /dev/hda2          259      259   767  2052288    5  Extended
o /dev/hda5          259      259   517  1044256+   6  DOS 16-bit >=32M
o /dev/hda6          518      518   767  1007968+   6  DOS 16-bit >=32M

I've lost track through various adjustments etc of how the numbering
arrived at what it is.  But the dos disk above Is one HDD divided into
3 partitions. One primary (1) the last two (5,6 logical) enclosed in
an extended partition(2)..


o Disk /dev/hdb: 128 heads, 63 sectors, 767 cylinders
o Units = cylinders of 8064 * 512 bytes
o 
o    Device Boot   Begin    Start   End   Blocks   Id  System
o /dev/hdb1            1        1   563  2269984+   5  Extended
o /dev/hdb2   *      564      564   664   407232   a5  BSD/386
o /dev/hdb5            1        1     9    36225   82  Linux swap
o /dev/hdb6           10       10   467  1846624+  83  Linux native
o /dev/hdb7          468      468   476    36256+  82  Linux swap
o /dev/hdb8          477      477   563   350752+  83  Linux native

This one also has an extended partition that I adjusted on advice
form a poster on BSD-current, so that it stops just before the BSD
partition (slice) begins  There is also still a section from 563 to
767 that is uncharted.(previously an ext2 file system)

So here we have and extended partiton (1) surrounding linux partitions
(5-8) and beyond that a BSD `slice' (2 primary)

Apparently the install routine is seeing the extended partions as dos
but not seeing what is inside them.

****8< snipped details of BSD naming (thank you)

> Assuming that you want to wipe out windows :P and keep Linux and FreeBSD

What I had hoped to do is ignore the dos partition (other than as a
holding ground for the BSD install files) and install BSD on the
second disk (Primary slave) where I've put its `slice' as above.

 Choosing any of the offered `dos' partitions to install from ends
 with this message:

o Error mounting /dev/wd0s1 [wd0s2/wd1s1 ed] on /dist: Operation not
o permitted.

I understand the above to be trying to mount a dos partition so as to
be able to access the files waiting there, to be installed.  Is that a
right assumption?

Or is something completely different going on here?

Thanks for the details -- Still confused though.
PS- during install, at the point where you are expected ot setup the
actual BSD partitions within its `slice'. F1 will get you a good
explanation of BSD numbering etc of partitions. 

What/where is that text taken from?  Surely it must be available
besides on the boot floppy.

Well, before you slit your wrists, could you answer a question (which
might make you rethink slitting your wrists)??

Did any of the HTML validators catch the problem??

And furthermore, this is simply another example of technology that
doesn't fail in a logical manner, making it nigh impossible to track
down.  It's not your fault.

Many examples of this exist in this business.  Consider the stupid
error messages programmed into DOS, i.e., "Command or file name not
found"!!  That pathetic piece of shit doesn't even know if it can't
find the program or a frickin' argument' target??  And it doesn't tell
you what the hell it was looking for, or where??

Okay, here it goes....I am very, very new to the Unix environment.  I am
asking probably a 'greenhorn' question in terms of web/internet
configuration in the FreeBSD OS.

I have two options.....might I ask which one is easier?

1.  Assign two or more URL addresses to the same IP number (as aliases,
etc.)
For example, to have one.twu.edu also be two.twu.edu.

2. Or, to redirect a server to another URL.  How might this be done?

I appreciate any feedback on this.  I want to ensure I do this
correctly.

Thank you,

Hello,

As long as Windows, is installed first FreeBSD will install a bootmanager.
Keep in mind you will need enough space for FreeBSD and Windows needs to be
installed first for this to work.

Yes.

Yes.  I started to write No but while checking the docs for the option
to revert to traditional behaviour I found that the current defaults
allow this.  If you should run into problems with these take a look
at the options {} section of named.conf and in particular check-names.
The defaults are
    check-names master fail;                                  
    check-names slave warn;  
    check-names response ignore;

meaning you can't use these names in your own zone files but will be
able to resolve them on broken networks.  Seems like a good balance.

I'm looking at ording "The Complete FreeBSD" and have found that 
is comes with or without the 4 CD's.  Are these CD's worthwhile 
having?  I have a high bandwith connection to the net so 
downloading the os from www.freebsd.org isn't painful, is there 
anything on the cd's that can not be downloaded from various sites?

I'll tell you why spam is being sent. 

Spam is being sent because the Department of Natural Resources refuses to
issue hunting licenses for them because the DNR operates under the
mistaken notion that spammers are a protected species.

The mail guru works hard to ban spammers as they show up. This is like
trying to rid your space ship of tribbles. The FreeBSD lists are every bit
as subject to the net as any one persons mailbox.

Out of the 150 or so FreeBSD emails I get each day, one or two of them are
spam (less than one percent). I can always recognize them by the header. I
just delete them.

If this is too much for you to bare, perhaps your stated plan of action is
best.

That's not (yet) clear; it's more of an issue of you using a "real" name
& address, and having the IRIX server configured to permit mail to be
relayed from that IP address.  As such, this is more of an
administrative & DNS issue than a sendmail one (as far as what needs to
change).

	No, none, zilch zero. They all run great! I've seen three or four

http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/bsd/amdref.html

No promises, but I'll do what I can.

Ok; this seems reasonably straightforward.  You don't describe any
problems doing this, so does that mean you've got this part worked out?

How might one determine "whatever project they are logged into"?

Do you want this "whatever project" to always be singular, or can it be
plural?  How is this enforced (or do you care)?

Would it be acceptable to use the very same structure on this (last)
machine that you have in all the others, and populate the "project
directories" with symlinks (pointing to the "real" home directories)?

>Also, is there anything like a group password in
>FreeBSD (yes, I know it is a Bad Idea...).

Yes, but it's not clear how you might make use of it, since BSD systems
use the union of the group access list for a given process for
determining (e.g.) whether or not the process is permitted to open a
given file in a given mode.

	It's like a drug. (Saying the man who has three Pentium class 
computers as home workstations.) 
	The only problem I see with the PPro, is replacement parts... I'd 
have to agree though, buy new parts, you'll probally be a lot better off.

	Well, I consider not to bad with the amount of 'real' traffic 
that comes across it. There are probally at least 100 people here who are 
working on cleaning it up. But with the number of e-mail stripping 
programs out there... it's kinda hard, though it has been a LOT worse.

	No problem. Being a newbie, I wasn't sure what the situation
was and wanted to check. If there are any measures which readers of the 
list can take to stomp out the SPAM, please let us know!

Hi,

I have recently attempted an upgrade from FreeBSD 2.2.6 to
FreeBSD 2.2.7 on my Canon Innova Book 490CDT.  For the 2.2.6-REL,
I was successful in patching my system with the PAO-2.2.6
sources.  After installing the changes, I was pleased to 
note that my Cirrus-Logic PC-Card PD6729/6730 interface was
successfully detected by the kernel, and all my PC-Cards worked 
great.

HERE'S THE PROBLEM.  I upgraded the OS to the 2.2.7-REL
and followed all the instructions in the PAO-980913 release
for 2.2.7.  All non-trivial kernel patches were successful,
and the kernel recompile was successful.  However, the
KERNEL does not detect the PD6729/6730 interface, and
hence I can't get any of my PC-Cards to work.

I have included the kernel output for both PAO-2.2.6 and
PAO-2.2.7 as well as the kernel configuration files
in each case.  If I can provide any more information,
please feel free to contact me.  

Note: A wide terminal can be helpful in browsing this message.

Thanks for your attention,

JM

Well, a given person's experiences & background are likely to play a
significant role in making the determination.

For me, for example, the first alternative would be easier, because for
the second, I'd need to go look something up.  :-)  (Also, in fairness,
I expect that the second would mean that it would be necessary to run a
Web server on each machine, while the first alternative means there's
really only a single machine; it merely happens to have a couple of
names.)

Assuming that your IP address <-> hostanme mappings are being handled
via DNS (which is my preference), there's no problem assigning multiple
hostnames to the same machine (with a single IP address).

You could either have a separate "A" record for each hostname, or have
one "A" record and a "CNAME" record.

You can also assign multiple IP addresses to a single interface (on a
single machine), and thus have the machine respond to any of several IP
addresses (and corresponding hostnames).

Please note, though, that you may want to pay attention to what hostname
& IP address the machine uses for responses....

Do the step-by-step procedures in the man page not work ?  What about

According to the M$ specs, there are only three valid CBCP codes, 
REQ, RESPONSE & ACK (1, 2 & 3).  If ppp gets something outside of 
this range, it moans with the above message and drops it on the floor.

Is the other side a M$ OS ?  (guffaw, guffaw!).   It may be worth 
taking it up with the remote admin....

I would have thought that ipfilter should be faster, implying less 
use of the cpu.  WRT the memory footprint, I have no idea - they're 
*probably* roughly the same.

However, natd does things that I'd be hugely surprised if ipfilter 
does.  Specifically, natd supports ``r''commands, non-passive FTP, 
CuSeeMe, NetBIOS & IRQ transparently.  It's also easy (and unlikely 
to be affected by OS upgrades) to add your own special protocol 
support (src/lib/libalias/alias_*.c).

Shouldn't be a problem with either (you probably wouldn't notice the 
speed difference).

how can I see if a name is registered? IS there a database of all the

I have absolutely no control of the IRIX server configuration. I merely
have an account there.

ah. So what should I do?

Yeah, I am getting hit by it too.  Sounds like time to do some
root mail to the offending machine(s).  I have gotten a dozen
or so dishes of spam over the past few weeks.  If it reaches
a real critical mass, something should be done.

I have always wondered.....

   How many emailed uuencoded fs dumps of returned spam would it
   take to fill an offending machine's var fs to slow it down?

   If everyone replied with a biggie dump of returned spam I am
   sure they would get the message?

   Let's see, a script to dish up a fs full of returned spam,
   uuencoded for clarity in transmission, split into 1 meg
   chunks for mailing, mailed in triplicate to assure message
   reception..... times several hundred irate folks....

   That might do it.....

   nah, too easy.....

Yes, I run an AMD K6-2/300 here under latest BETA and it works great.
I'm using A-Trend EagleMax mb if that matters.

There is not just one file. There are many.

If you want to install FreeBSD you should go to

I also have a high bandwidth connection. I gave my 2.2.2 CDs to a friend.
I really don't care if I ever see them again.

There is really nothing on the CDs that is not on the net. 

For the paranoid, CDs do lend and added measure of security. The sources
on them can't be modified.

Also, if something really bad happens (e.g. the network explodes) you can
still install new software.

Even though there is a small amount of spam I would rather
quickly delete that than to not be part of this list.
This list is the best !!!!!

Oops, somehow I managed to eliminate all useful	information from

from the cd, or should I copy it from my home machine or is there
another option?

If it helps, my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf looks like this:

default:
 set redial 5 10
 set device /dev/cuaa2
 set speed 115200
 set server /var/run/ppp "" 0117

That should at least help you see what does what, although the
ppp.conf.sample should be able to help you there.

Which bit isn't working at your end? Make sure you enable logging with
something like this in syslog.conf

!ppp
*.*			/var/log/ppp

which will make finding problems easier (probably). All this assumes
you're using ppp and not pppd. Also, I assume you have a tun driver in
your kernel?

Buy a proper keyboard first, which has
 - an apostrophe key
 - a shift key
 - a full stop key
 - a comma key (may not be needed, but they're quite useful I find)

I see you managed to find the brackets.

Then, explain why losing win98 would be a bad thing.

Serious answer at last, I had win95 on here :-( when I installed
FreeBSD, and it worked fine. Since Micro$crew are such tossers, I
suspect win98 is identical to win95 but with a new name and a few more
bugs thrown in, so it may work from there too. (You'll have to drop down
to DOS first though.)

Also, I'm not quite sure what you mean by having a partition split into
2 partitions? Do you have two partitions within an extended partition?
I'm not sure whether FreeBSD can be installed within an extended
partition or not, so you may have to do better than that.

No. At least, it wasn't for me. YMMV, of course. It may be steep at
first, I've heard some people say it's vertical, but after using it
for a few months you should pick things up fairly quickly. I've been
using FreeBSD for about 5 months, so I'd still consider myself a newbie
compared with others here, and I still learn new things all the time.
But I don't find much of it difficult, and that's the important bit.

Probably, considering win95 isn't even compatible with itself.

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROBLEM:
I am using a hosted server FreeBSD 2.1.7.1. As it is a hosted 
service, I do not have rights in /etc/sysconfig. However, the latter 
a need to reconfigure in order to activate a IBCS emulator 
(ibcs2="YES") because I want to run a database called CDS/ISIS. 
However, as I said before the system administrator does not give me 
any rights there.

QUESTION:
I am not a FreeBSD expert at all but is it possible to alternatively 
install the IBCS emulator in for example /usr/home/mydomain/ibcs 
and activate it with a setting my .login file?

PLEASE HELP ME OUT!

Thanks in advance,

A useful tool for this purpose is the "nslookup" program.  Some folks
prefer to use "dig".

In either case, the issue is what the process running on the IRIX box
believes; I expect that "nslookup" is a little more likely to be
available on that box than "dig" is (but I could well be wrong about
that).

>I have absolutely no control of the IRIX server configuration. I merely

Sounds as if the administration of that machine doesn't want you doing
what you've been doing.  Assuming you want to work *with* these folks,
I'd suggest that you contact them & try to cooperate.

If you don't do that, and they find out that you're circumventing their
operations, I expect you'll find yourself disconnected permanently.

>ah. So what should I do?

>thanks for the reply!

Talk to the IRIX admin(s).  You might find out if they like cookies (and
if so, bring some for them).

Just answering my own initial post - FreeBSD was innocent,
the RAID controller seems to have died. Zero communication
between that and the FreeBSD box. 

Moral of the story : backup, even if it's on redundant RAID 5.

If you can, check out /usr/ports/devel/xwpe, it's a very Borland like
editor for C/C++.  Most likely, it will fit in nicely with the editors you

I am in the process of sneaking a freebsd box in the back door of our
HP-UX-only shop. We need a dial-in and dial-out server for my support
group, and can't afford an HP box this quarter, so I've been given a
green light on setting up our favorite OS for the purpose.

I have been given a P200 PC by the IS dept, with a Digiboard PC/4e. I've
got the driver enabled, and the kernel is loading it. The difficulty is
getting the serial ports configured. I can only find two semi-relevant
examples, with no explanation at all, of setting up the serial ports for
the multi-port card, anywhere on your site (or the entire web)

the details--
Dell XPS M200S, a pretty generic Pentium 200 Pc with intergated sound,
joustick, USB, a single com port at COM1 on MB, Powergraph 64 video,
single lpt on MB at irq 7, PS/2 mouse port on irq12, an ISA digiboard
PC/4e, and a 3COM 3C595 PCI ether card.
The digiboard river is in the config file as
device     dgb0 at isa ? port 0x300 iomem 0xd0000 iosiz ? tty
it is detected during boot as
dgb0: PC/Xe 64/8k (windowed)
dgb0 at 0x300-0x303 maddr 0xd0000 misize 8192 on isa
dgb0: 4 ports

the on-board serial is in the config file as
sio0     at isa ? port "IO_COM1" flags 0x10 tty irq4 vector siointr
it is detected at boot-up as
sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq4 flags 0x10 on isa
sio0: type 16550A

But, no matter how I set sio1-4, they are not detected at boot-up. What
parameters/flags should I set to enable their detection? What am I
missing?

Just thought I'd mention that the set-up I described previously
for a FreeBSD proxy/router does not circumvent firewall licences.
Posting this to the list so that someone else doesn't make the
same mistake :

ie. we have -

LAN (50 PCs) <----> fxp1
                    fxp0 <----> Firewall <----> Internet

The idea being that the one FreeBSD box could route traffic
for the 50 PCs on the LAN. Having set this up (config below),
we've now been told that our firewall (Checkpoint Firewall-1) 
still sees the 50 PCs as 50 machines, each requiring a licence...
since it sees the different MAC addresses.

So, looks like this was a waste of time - might as well turn
the FreeBSD proxy/router into a webserver or something - and 
connect the LAN directly to the firewall.

If you guys have the CDROM's from Walnut Creek, there's an alternative
boot-manager on it call osbs-beta in the the tools subdir (?), that
does exactly what you want. You can configure the name and delay time
as well. I definitely recommend it over BootEasy.

 First off I'd like to thank James A. Mutter, Tom Jackson, Grey Lehey
and Johann Visagie for replying, really appreciate it.
 Second I'd like to apologize for my lack of info in my first Email.
Here is everything...I hope
I have already windows95 on my hard drive, I want to put FreeBSD on
there to the same drive (if I had it my way I'd have only FreeBSD) First
I defraged my hardrive, then when I used Fips.exe (in DOS) to free space
I could not get back into windows after  making a separate partition,
but I can still use DOS.  The last time i use fips, it told me
afterwards that it couldn't locate COMMAND, system halted. Another time
it told me, couldn't find himem.sys. It always says the following when
im trying to get into windows-
"While initializing device VFBACKUP
VFBACKUP could not load VFD.VXD"
--Some how I think it would be easier to install another hard drive and
dedicate it totally to FreeBSD

I hope this was enough info. Thank you all again
AnthonyS.

By the way, what set up is best for 100megs (as in minimum, custom .ect)

This is probably an easy question:

I want to be able to run xman, xload, etc. All the source code is located in
the /usr/X11R6/contrib/programs directory.
What do I need to do to make these programs run/exist?
Thanks,

Usually the subject is how to read these from FreeBSD.  I'm searching
for a way of doing the opposite, that is producing a .DOC file usable
by MS-Word.

I don't have Word but am wondering if it suffices to produce RTF
output from FreeBSD and simply name it with the .DOC extension?

Thanks,

Greetings!

I'm getting the following message upon boot up in the multi-homed machine...

  arp: 00:a0:c9:2c:aa:5c is using my IP address 10.10.138.224!

I'm trying to set up a machine with two network interfaces -- I got them
both to be recoginzed, and I configured my /etc/rc.conf as follows:

  network_interfaces="fxp1 fxp0 lo0"      # List of network interfaces 
  ifconfig_fxp1="inet 10.10.138.224  netmask 255.255.255.192"
  ifconfig_fxp0="inet 10.10.138.225  netmask 255.255.255.192"
  ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"   # default loopback device configuration.

My ifconfig statements return:

  fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 10.10.138.225 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 10.10.138.255
        ether 00:a0:c9:2c:aa:5c

        supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 
          100baseTX 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 

and...

  fxp1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 10.10.138.224 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 10.10.138.255

        supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX 
          10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP

Here's what I get with a "netstat -rn"

Routing tables

Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags     Refs     Use     Netif Expire
default            10.10.138.193      UGSc        4        0      fxp0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH          0        0       lo0
10.10.138.192/26   link#2             UC          0        0
10.10.138.224      0:a0:c9:d1:e3:cc   UHLW        0       22       lo0    


Am I missing something?  Why is the IP address 10.10.138.224 getting
snagged by the fxp0? How do I block that?

Uh, with your Cap'n Woodchuck decoder ring? [ sorry, couldn't resist...]

There's just too many things it could be. Mail me the first few
dozen lines, and I'll give you a diagnosis.

Maybe trying "file name-of-the-file" will tell you enough.

I have used linux slackware in the past and I really enjoyed the colored
directories when it would boot up.  I noticed when I booted a different
shell it was back to black and white but the command "bash -login" would
start up bash with color enabled.  Do you know how to set this color shell
on FreeBSD?

Has anyone actually used the /dev/ch device and chio utility?
With what hardware?

I was just looking at the Plextor MegaPlex 200-disk CD changer, 
and I'd hate to think I might be wandering into completely 
uncharted territory...

Thanks,

Don't rename it.  Word can read RTF files.  You will find, however,
that even though Microsoft invented RTF, many of their products do not
handle it correctly.  You might want to find out about Applixware and
StarOffice, too.

As someone alluded to, but should have explicitly stated:
Intel will soon discontinue production of the PentiumPro.  I'd
negotiate a lower price based on that.  And if they won't go lower, I'd
just find either a >300 MHz AMD-K6-2, or a multi-processor moboard
using the PII.  And if you do get the PPro, I'd keep an eye open for
spares... Otherwise, a CPU failure would render the moboard useless...

See http://www.daemonnews.org/news.html#freebsd_news for further proof
that NT is NOT appropriate for ISP use.
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

In my experience, it is caused by something
wrong with the cable, connector, hub not
turned on etc.

Try
   network_interfaces="fxp1 fxp0 lo0"      # List of network interfaces 
   ifconfig_fxp1="inet 10.10.138.224  netmask 255.255.255.192"

Note the use of _alias and the netmask on fxp0

Well, those are domain names, not URLs.  A URL also includes at least
a service (telnet, http, ftp).

To set domain names, you need to frob your DNS configuration.  I'm
guessing that you're not running your own DNS, so you'll have to find
who is.  For example, for your mail domain, you would say

   $ whois twu.edu

   Registrant:
   Texas Woman's University (TWU-DOM)
      P.O. Box 425798
      Denton, TX 76204

I'm not really sure what you mean by this question.  Can you expand?

But it's not exactly the FreeBSD way of doing things.

Even with a very high speed link, it still takes time to get the data,
and you still need somewhere to store it.  I find the CDs very
convenient.  And yes, AFAIK there are some things on the CDs which
aren't on the ftp sites.

I had a similar problem, until I noticed that my
cards were recognised as "SIMPLEX" at boot
time, but set to DUPLEX in default factory 
config.

I dug out the MS-DOS config disk for the cards
and set the cards on FreeBSD *AND* W95
boxes to SIMPLEX, and saw speed go from
18 k/sec to 500 k/sec.

I have followed all the instructions on setting up a local printer on the
parallel port in the FreeBSD handbook.
When I try to print using the command

lpr testlp

it gives me the following error

lpr: connect:No such file or directory
jobs queued, but cannot start daemon

I have checked all the files and they all seem to exist with the right
permissions.
It does spool the file to the right directory, but it does not print.

When I send the testlp directly to the printer

cat testlp > /dev/lpt0       everything works fine.

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks,

Alain

I made the boot flop and it attempts to load the kernel, however, after
the inital boot screen it dies and the machine reboots... Any ideas?

I would like to install it via FTP and the hard drive has a bunk copy of
NT on it...Should I format the hard drive first??

Thanks,
Jon

Yes.  It's on the live file system CD-ROM (number 2).

No.  You don't need it in /etc/sysconfig, but you do need root
privileges to load an LKM.  Without your sysadmin's cooperation,
there's nothing you can do except, of course, to install your own
FreeBSD.  Then you could get an up-to-date version as well.

	The restriction on starting with a digit is virtually non-existent at
this point.

	Underscores are not valid in hostnames. If you are using underscores
for names seen on the internet you should change them asap. One of many
good reasons is that they will be used to differentiate the new SRV
pseudo-hostnames. 

	For those that want to argue that there is nothing cut in stone about
not using underscores in hostnames, please don't bother. At minimum it's
"current best practice," and it probably actually *is* codified in the
RFC's, but that's a debate for another list.

Good luck,

Doug

Actually, yes.  That's why I worded it that way.

Ok here's another problem I'm working on for the last few days: The setup
is as follows:


WIN98 w/HP660C Printer
FreeBSD 2.2.7 w/Samba running

I have no problem browsing of seeing the bsd box from the WIN95 box. 
Samba commands from the BSD box show this:

The unix box (workbox) though Samba can see the HP660C on the Win95 box
(barstool)

How do I get the bsd box to print to the HP660C on the 95 box ?
To thow another wrench in the works, I'll have to use ghostscript 5 to use
the printer as it has the drivers I need for this printer. 

Help ? Ideas ? ... I'm lost, spend 2 days playing and reading man pages and
web sites and I'm right were I started.. no place. *sigh*

looks like you need to install the JPEG library. check if you have
/lib/libjpeg* on your system.

	Personally, I tend to ignore questions which could be answered by 2
minutes on the ftp site. Here's a free hint, try:

	There is no way to configure boot easy. If you want configuration, use
OS-BS. 

Good luck,

Not as Ultra DMA drives.  You can use them, but if you want the speed
improvements, you'll need to install FreeBSD 3.0 (due for release in 2
weeks).

	FreeBSD comes with a C compiler (gcc). If you didn't install the
developer package you should do that, since you will need the include
files. Also, I agree with Greg that (x)emacs is the easiest way to
write/edit C code. Install one or the other and read the docs about the
C code macro stuff. Make sure to enable colors, it adds to the
excitement. :)

Good luck,

Doug

Does fips allow this. If it damages win98 How would I go about
reinstalling windows98 with freebsd 2.2.6

Just as a sanity check, make the floppy again, using a different
floppy.  The floppy MUST be totally error free.  Do not use any
floppies that AOL, CompuServe, etc sent to you (these floppies are
usually rejects)

I would, just to take it out of the equation...
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

The resolv.conf on this machine has solely a nameserver line. The
hostname for this machine is set to hamburger.cs.williams.edu in
rc.conf.

Abbreviated hostname lookups work fine if I search for something in
the cs.williams.edu domain, e.g. I can

  ping dexter

successfully because there is a host dexter.cs.williams.edu. But if I try

  ping colrain

I get a hostname lookup failure, even though there is a host
colrain.williams.edu (note no "cs").

According to the resolv.conf man page:

  The search list is normally determined from the local domain
  name; by default, it begins with the local domain name, then
  successive parent domains that have at least two components in their
  names.

I get the same behavior if I include a "domain" line in
/etc/resolv.conf.  I can of course add "search" lines, but I'd rather
understand why the resolver doesn't appear to be behaving properly.

What am I missing?

Sure ,there is no problem if you can set the  IRQ number
and I/O port correctly in your kernel configure file before you re-compile your
kernel.

I have ISDN and an Analog attached to my FreeBSD IP-routing system.  
What I'm trying to do is have a 24-hour 28.8Kbps analog connection, but 
when more bandwidth is needed, I would like the system to automatically 
switch and dial using my separate ISDN modem.  And then disconnect after 
5 minutes of inactivity (ISDN only, analog would stay connected.)

I would greatly appreciate it if you would assist me in setting this (to 
me) rather complex configuration up.

Again (for clarification), here's what I'm trying to do:
- The system will maintain a constant or dedicated 28.8 connection
- When either the FreeBSD server or another computer on my LAN uses the 
internet and in doing so surpasses the 28.8's bandwidth, I'd like the 
computer to connect using the ISDN modem.  
- Then, after 5 minutes of inactivity, I'd like the ISDN to disconnect 
and the analog to connect again.  Or, if possible, the analog would have 
remained connected the whole time.  (I'm not sure whether in order to 
connect the ISDN one would have to disconnect the analog 28.8.  If this 
is necessary, that's OK.)

If you have any questions, please ask.  

Thanks so much for your time in this problem,
Robert McGrath

Many thanks to everyone for all the information and encouragement. I will
be placing an order with Walnut Creek for the FreeBSD CDROM and I will be
purchasing some of the books referred to in your replies.

Again, many thanks for your support and advice.

Hello,

I have a very specific question that I tried
to find an answer to on dejanews, and irc, but
unsuccessfully..

Anyway, the question is the following:

I compiled with NO_LKM and that obviously killed
the screensaver loadable module.. Is there
any way to statically compile a screensaver?
(option SCREENSAVER or something like that,
I am just guessing)

Screensaver is usually no big deal but if I leave
the box on for a long time... green would be a nice
screen saver to have... or stars, or something...

Does anyone have any information on this?

Thanks,

Andriss

It's on the std distribution set. If you've installed FreeBSD, it's
already there. The sources are in usr.sbin.

Hello,

I have some info om mathematica for linux,
but is there a native FreeBSD port of this
program?

More importantly, is there Maple for FreeBSD?

It would be really awesome if I could run
maple on my box, would solve a whole bunch of
problems..

I am willing to pay a reasonable amount of
money for the commercial software package if
such exists..

And the last question.

Since Gimp exists as a GNU alternative to 
Adobe, maybe (I hope) there is some math
package that has similar capabilities as
mathematica or maple?

I would be very grateful for all information
about this...


Andriss

After having a few problems with an install, I've now managed it.
Just a minimal install to test the water.  Now that I see how to do it 
I need to go back and set up a boot manager or add BSD to LILO.conf on
the linux OS sharing the disk.  At the moment I can't enter my new
install for lack of knowing how with a boot disk. 

During the install, at the part where you select a boot manger or not,
I heeded the message that says `dos pc users will almost certainly
need to choose none'.  So how to enter BSD OS.

This box has dos/win on the first primary, and Redhat linux and
FreeBSD on the first slave. (wd1) 

I understood I could add a stanza to Lilo.conf to include BSD but
realized I don't know where the kernal is located or how to point Lilo
at it.

PPP install asks for me to choose between the detected COM ports through
which to make the PPP connection. The 1st install gave me a choice of 2
COM ports (1&2).  My modem was using COM3 at the time, so I assumed that
FreeBSD was capable of detecting COMs 1 & 2 only.

Consequently, to prepare for the 2nd install, I jumpered my modem card
from COM3 to COM2, and from IRQ5 to IRQ3.  Then I used the Setup BIOS on
bootup to disable my 2nd Serial Port to free up the COM2 resources (port
address 02F8 and IRQ3).  When I booted with FreeBSD floppy and reached
the PPP install screen, it only offered me COM1 for modem connection. 
FreeBSD didn't even recognize my modem on COM2.

My modem is a "Boca Research 28.8Kbps MV.34AI"  The following is an
excerpt from the Intro section of the Advanced User's Guide for this
modem:

"The Home Fax Modem, along with the supplied driver software, is
designed to take advantage of your system's processor, thus eliminating
the need for a standard on-board UART."

I am willing to purchase the CD-ROM installation, or copy the essential
files to a DOS partition via WIN95 and install from that partition. 
Before I do this however, I would like to know if I will ever be able to
use my Modem with FreeBSD; if not, I may want to give Red Hat Linux a
try.

Thanks for reading my letter.  It's a pleasure to communicate with
another Son of God who also happens to be a pc Guru.

Hi,

How do I convert master.passwd on FreeBSD to /etc/shadow on Sun Solaris
2.51-2.6, I find that these two files have two different format.

/etc/shadow:
tester:QsHeN2nZPdL96:10492::::::

/etc/master.passwd
tester:$1$fx.AT$UPMJt3hdhSavR0DbMAnFd0:1006:0::0:0:Testing
Account:/home/tester:/bin/sh

2nd field of both file are encrypted passwd, but length is different, is
there a way to cut part of it from /etc/master.passwd, and paste to
/etc/shadow, so user's passwd is kept same.

Thanks,
jingang@cyberway.com.sg

Hello,

Sounds like a winmodem to me.  If it is it won't work with anything but
windows.  Try it in DOS, if it work there, and I suspect it won't you
are out of luck.  These modems are garbage (IMO).  You save 5-10 bucks on
them but it is definitly not worth it.
 
I used RH for a while then switched to FreeBSD 'cause it seems a lot more
like a true UNIX system.  RH is nice but there are a lot of hacks to make
things more "user friendly" that may cause confusion if you go to another
UNIX OS.

Good Luck,

Do I need both of these options, or just one or the other ? 

options         IPFIREWALL              #firewall
options         IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE      #print information about



I want to use IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE, but am not sure if I need both, or if the
VERBOSE is used in conjunction with IPFIREWALL. 

Thanks...

I'm quite sure that you can make an RTF file, and give it a ".rtf" extension.
That works fine. I've done it many a time.
I think Word'll get confused if you give it a .doc tag without
it really being a .doc file.

	didn't this type-by-extension idea go out 25 years ago?

install the port called `colorls`

then edit your shell profile script and add an alias for it.
Works for me :) I just have these alias's defined in .cshrr but I use tcsh
as my shell.

----

alias   la          ls -a
alias   lf          ls -FA
alias   ls          'colorls -Gal'
alias   ll          ls -lgsA

Hello,

There is no way of converting RC5-encrypted passwords (beginning with
$1$) to DES-encrypted passwords (usual way of things in the UNIX world).

You will have to first reconfigure your FreeBSD system to use DES
encyption (I don't remember how ...) Then you can exchange enrypted
passwords.

You can also use NIS/YP to allow SUN passwords to be recognized by your
FreeBSD system.

Once again. There is no _one_ filename.

>From the website which is cryptic...

"Regardless of the installation media you choose, you can get started by
creating the installation disk as described below."

Also from the cryptic website...

3. If you don't have a CDROM distribution then simply download the
installation boot disk image file to your hard drive, being sure to tell
your browser to save rather than display the file. Note: This disk image
can only be used with 1.44 megabyte 3.5 inch floppy disks.

And just in case clicking on the link is too cryptic...

ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp

This is the file that you need to help you get all of the several hundred
other files that makeup the system.

Those instructions are completely usable by a complete newbie. I know. I
was a complete newbie when I used them. The real trick is that you _must_
read them.

Of course.  :-)  RAID protects you agains (a single) disk failure, and
absolutely does _not_ protect you against some other things, like filesystem
corruption (through whatever means).

I'd suggest a nice DLT or AIT drive to go with that RAID box of yours.  :-)

Subject: Only "fetch -b" works, what am I doing wrong?

Hi,

I have written a small programm that serves http requests.
When using fetch I have to use "fetch -b" because without
-b fetch complains with: "fetch: empty reply from myserver.org"

While digging around in http.c, I found out that -b 
works around a linux bug. One of the correspondig
lines is:

if (sendmsg(s, &msg, fs->fs_linux_bug ? 0 : MSG_EOF) < 0) {

This means, my small http server works when setting flags
(of sendmsg) to 0. I assume, the correct way would be to set
MSG_EOF but somehow my http server doesn't work with it.

I do the ususal stuff,

1. socket()
2. bind()
3. listen()
4. accept()

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? Am I missing
some setsockopt or anything?

Thanks a lot,

	-Andre

No doubt that is always the better (and easier!) option.

(Unfortunately (well, fortunately for me) I use FreeBSD at the office in an
exclusively Unix-based server environment, so I have little experience with
trying to share disks with other operating systems.  Sorry.)

Hello,

Just one question : how can the firewall see the Ethernet MAC addresses
of the PCs which are behind the FreeBSD machine ?

I would expect all Ethernet frames transmitted from the FreeBSD machine
use the MAC address of fxp0 (just the IP address in the header could be
the address of one of your PCs - except with NAT : the IP address in each
Ethernet frame is also the address of the FreeBSD box).

	TfH

PS :It's really sad that your setup does not work : it would be a very
elegant way to circumvent the licencing policy of your Firewal vendor. 

PPS : do you have a tcpdump trace of the traffic beetween the FreeBSD box
and the firewall ? This trace could be used to explain why the firewall
sees 50 machines when it should see only one ....

Yes.  Samba provides WINS service (amongst other things).  It's in the ports!

The first options enables the kernel's ipfw support.  If you've enabled the
first option, then enabling the second one as well allows you to log accepted
or rejected packages to syslog.  This is _highly_ recommended;  personally, I
think the ability to log is about 90% of ipfw's usefulness.

Also note that there's an IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT option.  You can use this
to limit the number of messages logged to syslog, in order to prevent
denial-of-service attacks (attackers intentionally filling up your filesystem
with logs by sending you packets which your server rejects and logs).

Hi,

I am compiling the new 3.x kernel over my current 2.2.7 kernel.

When I run the /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL command, it warns me that 
I am using config version 22xxxxxx and the make will not work properly
unless I use config version 300xxxxx.

I've tried to find the newer version of config without success.

Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks

When you say 'installed the package' you do mean the FreeBSD package,
rather than just grabbing the source from somewhere and building it?  Also,
you didn't install any separate dvips/xdvi packages, did you?  TeTeX comes
with its own tweaked versions of these so you don't need to install them
separately.

TeTeX has always worked out of the box for me.  The only thing I can think
of is that you did something strange in the setup program (texconfig?) and
MakeTeXPK is writing the fonts to someplace that the other programs don't
know about.  I'm pretty sure that my setup puts generated fonts somewhere
under the teTeX directory rather than /tmp.

Sorry I can't be any more precise than that!  HTH,

	Scott.

Unfortunately, neither of them exists for FreeBSD.

For my needs (PhD thesis in stochastic image processing) a combination
of Octave and gnuplot worked quite well - for matrix number crunching
and display, that is. Both of them are on the CD set. There are a few
more tools for numerical mathematics that run on FreeBSD: mupad,
scilab,... aswell as tools to display the results: ace/gr, ...

Unfortunately, there's no free tool for symbolic mathematics. I always
ended up using Maple on a Solaris machine.

regards,

-Walter Hafner

PS: If you do mostly numeric mathematics, Matlab (the commercial
version) is the tool of choice!

Hello folks,

I having some trouble getting my SB16 PNP to work with 2.2.7-RELEASE. (A
new one for you !). I've added the following lines to the kernel config
and recompiled it without problem:

controller      pnp0
device pcm0 at isa? port ? irq ? drq ? vector pcmintr

Now I get the following on bootup (from dmesg):

Probing for PnP devices:
CSN 1 Vendor ID: CTL0070 [0x70008c0e] Serial 0xffffffff
This is a SB16 PnP, but LDN 0 is disabled

What is LDN 0, and how do I enable it?

What else do I need to do to make it work (eg. MAKEDEV?)

Regards,

Jeff Bond

hehe ;)  ok, i'll reconsider ...

> Did any of the HTML validators catch the problem??

well, they catch many things that are ok with browsers
(like <IMG> in <PRE> blocks), and don't necessarily
catch the exact problem, though a problem there
may be.  but in general, they can tell you if something
is perfect or not.  but "perfect" to a validator doesn't
necessarily mean a good web page, and "error found ..."
doesn't necessarily mean it isn't OK with all browsers.

i just try lynx and netscape, and if it looks ok
with those, it's "valid" HTML to me ...  but it's
good to know the rules also.

> Many examples of this exist in this business.  Consider the stupid
> error messages programmed into DOS, i.e., "Command or file name not
> found"!!  That pathetic piece of shit doesn't even know if it can't

my favorite is 'Abort, Retry, or Fail'.
since 1986, it's almost always takes me a
few keystrokes to get by that one  ...  ;)
(hehe - do i want it to Abort or Fail ???)

nuff said.  thanks.

-- why is it when i HAVE to use windows,
   the first thing i do is open a DOS box?

No.  127.1 goes via the loopback interface, which has nothing to do
with network boards.

What is this about?  It's in no recognizable format.

Hi,

How do I change passwd encryption method from MD5(default) to DES? so
that I can use the the same password entries on FreeBSD and non-FreeBSD
systems(http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ47.html).

Thanks,
jingang@cyberway.com.sg

i'd say it's BS, save your money !!!
i wouldn't trust all that "on-board"
junk.  you don't know what it is,
or if it will work (esp w/FBSD).
and if it doesn't, the whole
setup is worthless ...

additionally, if an "on-board"
thingie screws up, you'll most
likely have to trash everything.
you don't even say if it's a
standard AT or ATX case ...

$300 for a case and motherboard?
the rest is only $200 worth ...

the NT server isn't worth anything.
(yeah, so it has 2 150 mhz cpu's)
(the price is like 300 mhz cpu's)

Hi,
Hi,

I  am having problems getting my 3 Com network card (3c509)  recognized

When I reboot, I get the following message:

Do you have any idea what's wrong ?

    Hello, every month I make a full backup of my system using DUMP with the
following sintaxis:
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /usr
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /var


    When I'm making a restore in interactive mode I see the files to restore
and execute the command add, in interactive mode, but when I use the command
extract nothing is restoring, what is it happenning?. However the restore -r
to restore a file system it's working. Thank you.

Take a look at the multi-link parts of the ppp documentation.  If 
you're not running FreeBSD-3.*, get the latest ppp via

  http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html

Of course your ISP has to be prepared to do multi-link too.

You're interested in creating two links, setting the analogue one up 
as a ddial link (``link analogue set mode ddial'') and setting the isdn 
link up as an auto link (``link isdn set mode auto''), then setting 
autoload according to your preference (``set autoload ...'').

Refer to the man page for details.

The autoload stuff allows you to set a threshold so that when X 
or more packets are in the queue continuously for more than Y 
seconds, another auto link is brought up.  It also allows you to 
say that when A or less packets are in the queue for B or less 
seconds, another auto link should be brought back down again.

You'll need to experiment with the values....

If it doesn't come with the base distribution, either upgrade or 
download from http://www.Awfulhak.org/natd/

There's a link there to the original site too.

Hi there,

I have a machine which is permanently connected to the net via a valid IP
address.  I would like to set up a second machine which is connected via
Ethernet to the first machine which does aliasing for a number of machines
with IP's in the non-routable tables 10.10.10.*.  I know with a dial up
connection and ppp, I can ppp -alias.

My question is
1) can I do a similar thing to ppp -alias using ethernet (IPFW & NATD)
2) would it be easier to connect the two machines via a serial cable and use
ppp.
3) something much better which solves all my problems.

Any help appreciated

Cheers
Craig

Heh - I think you've figured out all the answers already...

Yep.  Natd uses the same code (libalias) as ppp to do the packet 
aliasing.

Marginally, but it'd be a lot slower.

Nope - sorry.  IMHO, natd's your best option.

Indeed you can.  The natd(8) man page should answer most of your questions.

Serial cable would be cheaper.  Ethernet wins in all the other categories,
e.g.:

- faster
- more flexible "masquerading" via natd
- "it just feels right"  :)

Once you know ipfw & natd, I would even say it's easier than struggling with
PPP.  And even if you go the PPP route, I would still advise you to set up
ipfw on the permanently connected box to protect it.

Hello,
i'm having a little problem with crypt. I'm using the 2.2.6 FreeBSD
version and i'm trying to install a pop server, what happens is that it
uses crypt to scramble the password and compare it. I've done almost
everything and nothing works, i always have the folowing error:

"cc -o pop3d pop3d.o mailbox.o version.o
pop3d.o: Undefined symbol `_crypt' referenced from text segment
*** Error code 1

Stop."

In all the files i have included th unistd.h (#inculde <unistd.h>).
Reading the handbook i saw that i'm using DES to create the passwords,
so my /usr/lib is like this

bash# ls -la /usr/lib/libcrypt*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  bin  13 May 27 19:21 /usr/lib/libcrypt.a ->
libdescrypt.a
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  bin  18 May 27 19:21 /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2.0 ->
libdescrypt.so.2.0
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  bin  15 May 27 19:21 /usr/lib/libcrypt_p.a ->
libdescrypt_p.a

i really need this pop server to work, do you know where this error come
from and how can i solve it? i tried another pop servers wich have the
same error if they use the crypt function.
If you could help me please, i would really apreciate it!!!
Thanks in advance.

    I'm trying to use squid with apache web server. To configure squid it's
needing to redirect web traffic, in the squid FAQ come an example with
ipnat:
# Redirect direct web traffic to local web server.
rdr de0 1.2.3.4/32 port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 80 tcp

# Redirect everything else to squid on port 8080
rdr de0 0.0.0.0/0 port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8080 tcp

    Is it possible to use with ipfw and divert and what is it the command?
Thank you in advance.

 By booting the kernel with the "-c" flag, commands are available to modi-

 CSN LDN where CSN and LDN are the Card Select Number and Logical Device
 Number associated to the device. Following this sequence any  combination
 of the following commands can be used:

I described this in detail in "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition
(http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm).  Maybe you'd like to
tell us what your current problems are.

I still don't understand this.

Word will take it either way.  Generally the rtf extensions are registered

		I'm quite sure that you can make an RTF file, and give it a
".rtf" extension.
		That works fine. I've done it many a time.
		I think Word'll get confused if you give it a .doc tag
without

Please send replies to the list as well as to me, as I have done now.

First, you don't install FreeBSD on a FAT partition, it has its own
filesystem type. You will also need more than one partition for FreeBSD;
a minimum of two: one filesystem and one for swap. (You won't need much
for swap, about 64MB may do, it depends how much RAM you have.)

As for the size of the file one, that depends on  how much you intend to
use it. I wouldn't like less that 500MB in total, and I'd prefer 1GB at
least, though 500MB may suffice.

Remember that you can't move or resize FreeBSD partitions with Partition
Magic, so make the right choice to start with :-)

I get the following error when I use Hummingbirds exceed product to open
an xterm window.

Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Failed to open input method

The window opens but my fonts do not work within the terminal window. I
can go to the /usr/X11R6/bin directory and run xterm from there and I
get a terminal window and my fonts work. This sounds to me like an
exceed problem but I was wondering if anyone ran into this problem.

Please reply to this email for response.

    Hello, I'm trying to configure procmail to deliver mail to the homeuser.
I have the generic file /usr/local/etc/procmailrc with the following
context:
    PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/local/bin
    MAILDIR=$HOME

    but the mail is still delivering to /var/mail. I use a pop3 client
(qpopper) to read the mail. What do I need to include in my procmail
configuration to delivery mail to the homeuser?.


    Thank you.

A computer can have serveral host aliases. For example,
the host freefall has the aliases freefall.freebsd.org
and www.freebsd.org.

The aliases are defined locally in /etc/hosts
and globally by your DNS master - the person, who give 
you your IP number.

Looks like your card is not configured at address 0x300.

two ways to solve this:

1.   
Reconfigure your network card for address 0x300.
Don't forget to check the IRQ. I believe in FreeBSD
the default is IRQ 10


2.
Reconfigure your kernel to the current settings of your
network card. If you are not sure how to to this, check the handbook.

Good Luck,

You should have a -lcrypt somewhere in the Makefile (or config
options) of the software that you're trying to build.  Perl, for
example, has a crypt function -- and is linked against -lcrypt.

I'm guessing that one of a few things is happening:
   1) your 3com card isn't functioning properly
   2) there is no card at 0x300 (and you'll need to get the correct
      address and rebuild your kernel)
   3) your card still has pnp enabled (I don't recall if 2.2.7 is hip
      to pnp NICs).

Here's what I'd suggest to fix it:
   1) boot into DOS/your Win32 OS.  If you card is working under
      Win32, grab (write down) the relevent configuration
      information.  Reboot into FreeBSD and rebuild your kernel with
      the correct settings for your card.
   2) boot into DOS/your Win32 OS.  Check your card's information with
      the 3com utilities -- make sure that pnp is disabled and write
      down the card's information.  Reboot into FreeBSD and build a
      new kernel.

Why is it that once and a while my rc.conf file gets corrupted when I do a
shutdown -r now?
The machine boots up with Amnesiac, then all I have to do is copy a backup
rc.conf and restart to make everything work the old way (normal).
But again, why does this file get corrupted once and a while?
Thanks,

Alain

You can find the latest version on:
ftp://coombs.anu.edu.au/pub/net/ip-filter/ip-fil3.2.9.tar.gz

IPFilter is (I think) incorporated in FreeBSD 3.0, but not in earlier
versions. When you download the tar.gz file it is easy to install if you
read INST.FreeBSD-2.2.

Looks like your card is not configured at address 0x300.

two ways to solve this:

1.   
Reconfigure your network card for address 0x300.
Don't forget to check the IRQ. I believe in FreeBSD
the default is IRQ 10


2.
Reconfigure your kernel to the current settings of your
network card. If you are not sure how to to this, check the handbook.

Good Luck,

I've used it with an Archive Python 4-tape DDS2 juke. Some of the
commands don't appear to work (like getting status), but it works
enough for my backup purposes.

Hello,

I've got an ATS (Ancient Technology Server) box with an Adaptec 2742
fast/wide EISA SCSI card and an Adaptec 1542C ISA SCSI card.  My boot device
(CAMified) is da0 on the 1542C.  da1, a 2 gig full height brick, is also on
the 1542C.  I've recently acquired a fast SCSI Seagate Elite 9 gig drive
which I'd like to use to augment my storage.  The problem:  The system is
trying to boot from the new disk.  The kernel probe indicates that it is
mapping the new drive to da0.  My question:  is there some good way to get
the drive to map to da2?  Thank you!

p.s. Please CC: replies to me.  My regular mail server has crashed, and I
won't be getting the list until it's up.  Thanks!

Bret Ford

Butting in here with a slightly different question:

The README file at the above URL explains a bit how to install and
use`booteasy' once you have a working system.  Sound like a robust
tool.

Still in the throws of installing... When given a choice about
installing a boot manager.  The advice for `dos-pc' users is to select
`NONE'.

I will have 3 OSs on two disks when everything is set.
disk 1 dos/win
disk 2 Redhat-linux/FreeBSD-2.2.7
The win95 and Redhat linux are in operation now.

I'd like to boot with lilo but only because I already know how to use
it.  Can I just put a stanza about FreeBSD in there, pointing to the
kernal address etc for FreeBSD?  If so, where does FreeBSD keep the
kernal?  I haven't got to look at my newly installed file system
yet...


Alternately:  If `Easy Boot' can be made to handle all three OSs then
what do I need to choose when doing the install?
Haven't read every thing I probably should have, but did not see an
explanation about this in the INSTALL.txt.  Likewise, during the
install, pressing F1 at that section doesn't give much info about
which choice to make other than `NONE'

You might also want to boot the system with the -c option
If you can boot using the -c option you can configure
your network device for i/o and irq etc..

Also if you have a 3c509b I think you may want to check out
http://www.freebsd.orb/search regarding this card ..

Hope this helps.

Well, if that had happened for one of the machines I administer, I would
take the first available of the following actions:

* sudo co /etc/rc.conf
  (That is, recover the file from the RCS repository.  RCS is not only
  useful for tracking changes, but to help for situations like this.)

  (Actually, as time permits, I'm working on figuring out how to keep a
  private CVS repository for these things, which should be *very* nice,
  once I figure out how to do it.  Unfortunately, time is scarce....)

* Restore the file(s) from the most recent appropriate backups (and
  tweak as necessary).

* Copy the file(s) from a similarly-configured machine (and tweak as
  necessary).

* Copy the file(s) from installation media (and tweak as necessary).


So... once you've got the files back, you might want to take steps so
you can do some of the earlier options in the above list.  I heartily
recommend RCS; the price is right, and the discipline isn't too tough.
There were a couple of (consecutive) articles by the Jeffreys in recent
issues of _SunExpert_ about using RCS (especially from a sysadmin
perspective).

Don't bother trying to do this from the procmailrc, as procmail does
some checking before then on the mailspool using the compiled in
location.  You should make sure you have the source for procmail
3.11pre7, then you'll need to change src/authenticate.c to tell
procmail to store the mail in the home directory.  You'll need to
decide what file in the home directory it should be stored in.  Let's
say you choose the file named ".mailspool".  You would then find the
line in src/authenticate.c that reads:

/*#define MAILSPOOLHOME "/.mail"                      /* watch the leading / */

A change it to instead say:

#define MAILSPOOLHOME "/.mailspool"		      /* watch the leading / */

The recompile and reinstall.

Where did you hook the new Seagate??  On the 2742??  What SCSI ID did
you set it to??
If it's set as SCSI ID 0 and so is da0, you could be in real trouble. 
If it's on the 2742, you should be able to turn off the SCSI boot
device support on the 2742.

Just out of curiosity...during boot time of 2.2.7 I see the numbers
640k/65536k.  Does this number indicate the maximum physical memory
usage?
I really hope not cuz I just bought a 128MB SDRAM module.

Thanks in advance!

I am currently on RH5.1 and when I upgraded from 5.0 I lost all my lan
networking.  Does FreeBSD handle my Linksys etherfast 10/100 linksys
chipset?  If it does using what, cause Donald Becker who makes the tulip
driver hasn't even responded when I told him I lost functionality after
the upgrade (except to ask which version .89H-K) and I tulip.o is dead
in the water for me.

Thanks

this is covered in the Handbook I think...but you can run the linux port
of methematica under FreeBSD linux emulation.

Make sure you have configured the card using the DOS utility that comes
with it, if you don;t have it, then get iot from http://www.3com.com

make sure that the I/O address and the IRQ are the same as what the kernel
is looking for (probably IRQ10/0x300)

Been going over a few pages lately that cover external driver support for
the AWE32/64 cards that you patch to the kernel.  Just curious to know as
I don't recall seeing any info in the past on the lists.  Does 3.0 have
full support for the AWE32/64 PnP cards without a patch?

Check the login (.login, .profile, etc) files, I betcha they set LC_*)
variables that screw things up.  Just comment them out.

I experienced the same thing with SyBase ASE for a client (no, not on
FreeBSD).

Be happy...

Hi,

I'm seeing that some ttf fonts have problems when running with
ghostscript5.10 on freeBSD 2.2.6. (I'm using xfstt099 as my trueType
font server.)

Many fonts work fine. Some botch badly.

Here's an example of what I'm seeing with, say, times.ttf 
(Times New Roman Regular:Version 2, Monotype Corporation plc/Type Solutions
Inc. 1990-1992):

I've tried sending mail to Dave Bodenstab (imdave@synet.net), who
wrote a freebsd tutorial for font stuff 
(www.pt.freebsd.org/tutorials/fonts/fonts.html). But the mail bounced.

Thanks in advance for any help,
k.

If you tried smbclient \\server\printer -P (which is pretty clearly
what you want based on the man page), what happened?

A little more detail is required.

Greetings,

	I have searched thru the mail archives and did not come up anything
	related to making CD using ATAPI CD Rewritable device. Maybe
	I didn't search correctly.

	The atapi CD Rewritable made by BTC ($275) works fine for
	reading but I can't use cdrecord to create a CD. Maybe I am
	using the wrong program. The document from BTC mentions
	that it can be used as  easy as a floppy.
	But I can't figure how to write to it.

	Would someone please share the experience in creating
	a rewritable CD using an ATAPI CD Rewritable device such
	as the one made by BTC.

	Thank you for your help.

	Fran

Running FreeBSD-3.0 CAM tree and postgresql port will not
compile.  It dies on the gcc cross-platform test with a ld:
crt0.o failure that it cannot find the file or directory.  I
cannot remember what a crt0.o file or such an error means.

Can someone refresh my memory?

Thanks,
Scott

I'm looking for  an Intel based server to run FreeBSD. Does FreeBSD-current
or stable support the RAID controller for the Dell PowerEdge 4300 servers?
On Dell's site, it doesn't list the exact type of RAID controller it is. If
anyone has any info to share about compatibility with any of Dell's
PowerEdges servers, please reply via email.

Thank you.

We've used it with a Quantum DLT-4700 7 tape machine and it works a
dream.  We use amanda as a tape backup system and it's great.

Gotcha though... the ch device ioctl structure has changed with the
CAM updates and Amanda's scsi-chio code now doesn't work.  We're
working on a fix for this as I write though.

You need to protect the \ from your shell, either

smbclient '\\barstool\HP66C -P'

or

smbclient //barstool/HP66C -P should work.

Subject: Adaptec 2940 Waiting for scsi to settle
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

It looks like this problem is greater that it appears.

So far, I have seen other e-mails regarding the same issue:
Adaptec 2940 scsi cards not working with FreeBSD
2.2.5, FreeBSD 2.2.6, or FreeBSD 2.2.7.

Adding to this problem is my findings:
My new Adaptec AHA-2940UW BIOS 1.34.3 (1998) experiences the
same waiting for scsi to settle (forever)
My new Adaptec AHA-2940UA BIOS 1.32 (1997)  experiences the
same waiting for scsi to settle (forever)

BUT!
My older Adaptec AHA-2940UW BIOS 1.25 (1996) DOES NOT 
experience the dreaded 'waiting for scsi to settle'

Hmmm, this leads me to believe that there has been a BIOS change
to these cards that is not compatible with the current 294x drivers
in FreeBSD 2.2.5 2.2.6 2.2.7.

I've checked into the termination of the SCSI devices: all works
in other operating systems

I've checked into the AUTO termination setting on the cards
and disabled AUTO to the correct manual config (still no help)

Does anyone have some light to shine on this issue?  

I have not seen any favorable responses to other people's 
request for assistance on this issue.

Is this a NON-ISSUE because 3.0 fixes it? t-- I have not used
3.0 so I cannot answer this question.

Would a FreeBSD Adaptec Developer need a new SCSI PCI card
for R&D to fix this problem?  (This is an offer)

David,

as you can see from the output (\barstoolHP66C), you didn't include enough
backslashes in the command line.

You should try 'smbclient -P \\\\barstool\\HP66C' because your shell is
treating \ special. Basically, you have to escape the \ with a \.

Cheers ...

I did the same thing as you are trying to do.  I'm using natd.  See my 
website for details.  Look for "httpd redirection".

Hi there,

	As I understand it, multi-headed X servers allow multiple monitors
to be used as one desktop. Does this also cover running multiple instances of
an Xserver with seperate card/monitor pairs??

	Basically, I want to start three Xservers (Mach64) on the three
installed graphics cards (ATI Rage II+).

	I know how to start the three servers (:0 :1 and :2) but cannot work
out how to use the different cards.

	One last thing, I've looked at XiG's servers, and Metro-X -- neither
of which appear to be free nor compatible with the cards.

	Any help sincerely appreciated.

I've installed the newest versions of Pine & Emacs on my FreeBSD system.
But when I try to run either one of them, I get an error message that
looks something like this:

  /usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "___error"

and the program quits. I'm running version 2.2.5 of FreeBSD. Do I need to
upgrade ld.so, & if so, where can I get the latest version of ld.so?

Thanks!

Maybe i should post this to the ports list but i figured this is a good
place to start.

I'm trying to get sniffit to run on a LAN with miserable results. I
installed it from the ports tree. I'm running -stable. Here's my output
running this program as root of course:

{149}# sniffit -F /dev/bpf0 -I
Forcing device to /dev/bpf0 (user requested)...
Make sure you have read the docs carefully.
Supported Network device found. (/dev/bpf0)
/dev/bpf0: Device not configured

I've read the docs as it said and can't find anything I missed, I also
searched the maillist archives for any clues but no such luck. Tcpdump
seems to work fine as well as other apps that use bpf0 so i'm fairly
certain that I got that part correct in the kernel, also the ethernet
card works without fail. My card is device xl0. I've tried many things to
"configure" this device including ./MAKEDEV /dev/bfp0, setting more
generous permissions, etc. Anyone who's gotten sniffit to work have any
special tips? TIA.

Well, the times I've seen it, it means that the "lpd" daemon isn't
running.

As an immediate fix, start up the lpd daemon (as root).

For the longer term, edit /etc/rc.conf to tell it 'lpd_enable="YES"'.

Hello BSDaemons!

  I experienced the same trouble with Adaptec 2940UW (Ultra-wide).
My older BIOS 1.25 card worked fine (with FreeBSD and OS/2)
Newer BIOS 1.3- had trouble with FreeBSD, possibly also OS/2.

  My action was to contact Adaptec tech support.
The change between 1.25 and 1.3-- was mostly to allow a system to
boot from a SCSI drive even when an IDE drive exists.
(It was called "BBS Support", as I recall, but that "BBS"
has nothing to do with "Bulletin Board System").

  My remedy was to download the 1.25 BIOS code from Adaptec and 
flash my newer cards to 'downgrade' them to 1.25. Both FreeBSD
and OS/2 work fine on them now. If you have this same trouble it
is probably best to contact Adaptec direct regarding it (so that
they are aware of it and perhaps fix it). As an alternative, I
am sure that I have the 1.25 BIOS code in my office, and could
make it available to other BSDaemons.

  It is disconcerting to buy a new card and then to 'downgrade' it,
but I am not using IDE drives, so I have no need for "BBS support".

  I recall a saying in an old film regarding the demise of fumeless
electric street cars in Los Angeles: 
  "Progress doesn't always mean that things get better"

Hi guys.  Trying to get freebsd 2.2.7 (distribution CD)
up and running on a new server.  We are trying to use
a DPT PM3334UW controller and problems are occuring :)

Any help here would be MOST appreciated.  I sort of stuck my neck out here
to use a free OS for this server (THEY wanted to use NT on it... *yuck*)
But since I am admining the machine and I like freebsd, I won out :)

The DPT card bios reports its own version as V003.EN
The scsi card is ID7 on all 3 channels
The drives are all id0 on each of the 3 channels.


On bootup, the kernel sees the card as a
DPT Type 3 model PM3334UW, firmware 07M0 on port b810 with write back cache

it also reports that the kernel has the Collections Metrics enabled.

It reports my disk geometry as 1106 cyls / 255 heads / 63 sectors, and
17767890 sectors

I am using RAID V, with 3 4.5gig seagate cheetas 4LP

I get to the menu just fine, and begin a novice installation...
I tell it to use the entire disk, set it as bootable.

I then partition the drive as such:
256M swap
128M /
256M /var
and roughly 8 gig for /usr

Ok, so it starts to do a newfs... it seems to create the / partition ok,
although this goes by so quick I cant say for sure.  It seems to copy all
the device files to the drive...

I noticed the error message:
3328 sectors in last cylinder unallocated.

then it starts doing a newfs on the /usr partition... it ticks and ticks and
ticks off the numbers...
then gets to what I assume is the end, but never returns control to the
install program...
it just dies right there...

HELP!  What should I begin trying here?  I'm definately lost when it comes
to RAID anyway...  any bios functions in the DPT controller setup that I
should disable?
Anyone have any ideas?

Is there a knowledgeable individual @ DPT who is familiar with these
controllers
and FreeBSD?  Their book that comes with the card doesnt even mention unix
so....

I have several FreeBSD 3.0 (19980725-SNAP) servers running with at least
40 virtual host apaches running, and 40 IP addresses ifconfig'd.

I need to account the bandwidth usage of each of these IP addresses, and
am used to MRTG and SNMPd with managing the ports on my Cisco switches.  

However, I can't seem to get any type of IP accounting - SNMP or not, on
FreeBSD.  Any direction anyone can provide?

Yes.  You may have to manually set the PnP configuration of at least the
AWE device the first time you boot a kernel with SBAWE support in it,
though...  I compile my kernel with the following options so USERCONFIG
just automagically fixes the PnP config evertime I boot:

options         USERCONFIG
options         USERCONFIG_BOOT

with the following in /kernel.config:

USERCONFIG
pnp 1 0 bios enable
pnp 1 1 bios enable
pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20
quit

Not sure about Maple, but Mathematica 3.0 for Linux runs here
(FreeBSD-current) quite well.
Actually, it runs perhaps even _faster_ then under Linux.

A tiny benchmark (doesn't prove anything, but all the same...):
test on timing:

Do[a[i]=i+5,{i,0,20000}]//Timing

Results:

Here (P5-100, 32Mb (old, not even EDO SIMMS) RAM, FreeBSD):  roughly 5.2 
sec
At my friend's (P5-90, 32Mb (nice new DIMMS) RAM, Linux RH-5.1): roughly
5.6 sec

A little, but 100% reproducible.

Regards, 
Vladimir

Nope but you can run it under emulation - see the Handbook.

You should check out MuPAD.  

	http://math-www.uni-paderborn.de/MuPAD/

It's free for non-commercial institutions and there's a FreeBSD package
for it at MuPAD.  

I've used it a little bit.  It's not a perfect replacement for my uses for
Mathematica, but it's still nice.

Well, this box has a PnP BIOS that configures all that for me, but you
may have to do something like:

pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 port1 0x330 port2 0x388
pnp 1 1 os enable port0 0x201
pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20

in the configuration editor.  All this assumes that you have pnp0 in your
kernel config, of course...

The actual IRQ #'s, etc. may vary for you, too.  Look at the output of
pnpinfo to get the right numbers.

Good luck :-)

I'd like to get FreeBSD Release-2.2.7 installed on a server that has an
AdvanSys ABP-940U PCI host adapter.

Unfortunately, the AdvanSys is supported only through the CAM package.

How do I get FreeBSD onto this computer?

I was thinking about building a kernel and whatever else is necessary by
first installing to a machine with a supported host adapter (I have a
computer with a Symbios '875 chipset (ncr)), but then I was at a loss as
to how to put the "CAMed" kernel to use to help me install to the AdvanSys
machine.

What do I do?

Thanks.

With reference to my previous message:

I should also add that I was planning to do the install via FTP -- I have
a static IP, a local mirror, and a reasonably fast connection.

I think you're actually asking why some X application pukes,
complaining about some shared library like libXaw.so.6 right?

If so, adding the path to the X libraries (/usr/X11R6/lib, usually)
in /etc/rc.conf will help after the next reboot:

Find this line:

ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib" # shared library search paths

Last dumb quesiton of the year for me.  In the kernel do I need the devive
sb0, sbxvi0, etc ,etc statements of should I just have device awe0 and
that should take care of them all.  And if I do need sb0 etc, then with
the pnp card should I bother to put in the ports or try and let it detect
it automagically?

Whenever I try to boot up the machine with the boot floppy to install
FreeBSD I get the following error.

ahc0: brkadrint, Illegal HOst Access at Seqaddr = 0x0

and the machine just stops there.
What is causing this?
Using SCSI hard drive and CD-ROM.
I thought this was some ID conflict so changed ID of CD-ROM, still gave me
same error.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,

Alain

How about the obvious:
	Hook it up to a network and ping another machine.

Yeah, you need the devices in the kernel...  Your setup should be something
like this:

Necessary stuff in kernel config file:

options         USERCONFIG
options         USERCONFIG_BOOT
controller      pnp0
controller      snd0
device          sb0     at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr
device          sbxvi0  at isa? drq 5
device          sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330
device          awe0    at isa? port 0x620
device          opl0    at isa? port 0x388
device          joy0    at isa? port "IO_GAME"

/kernel.config:

pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 port1 0x330 port2 0x388
pnp 1 1 os enable port0 0x201
pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20

If you have all that, it should Just Work.  Do look at the output of
pnpinfo, though, to make sure the numbers match what your card wants.

     Make sure that you leave the last couple of sectors of the HD free. 
     DPT stores information there about the RAID array. 
     
     Also try booting to DOS and using the DPT utilities diskette to 
     reformat the drives individually.

Hi guys.  Trying to get freebsd 2.2.7 (distribution CD) 
up and running on a new server.  We are trying to use
a DPT PM3334UW controller and problems are occuring :)
     
Any help here would be MOST appreciated.  I sort of stuck my neck out here 
to use a free OS for this server (THEY wanted to use NT on it... *yuck*) 
But since I am admining the machine and I like freebsd, I won out :)
     
The DPT card bios reports its own version as V003.EN 
The scsi card is ID7 on all 3 channels
The drives are all id0 on each of the 3 channels.
     
     
On bootup, the kernel sees the card as a
DPT Type 3 model PM3334UW, firmware 07M0 on port b810 with write back cache
     
it also reports that the kernel has the Collections Metrics enabled.
     
It reports my disk geometry as 1106 cyls / 255 heads / 63 sectors, and 
17767890 sectors
     
I am using RAID V, with 3 4.5gig seagate cheetas 4LP
     
I get to the menu just fine, and begin a novice installation... 
I tell it to use the entire disk, set it as bootable.
     
I then partition the drive as such:
256M swap
128M /
256M /var
and roughly 8 gig for /usr
     
Ok, so it starts to do a newfs... it seems to create the / partition ok, 
although this goes by so quick I cant say for sure.  It seems to copy all 
the device files to the drive...
     
I noticed the error message:
3328 sectors in last cylinder unallocated.
     
then it starts doing a newfs on the /usr partition... it ticks and ticks and 
ticks off the numbers...
then gets to what I assume is the end, but never returns control to the 
install program...
it just dies right there...
     
HELP!  What should I begin trying here?  I'm definately lost when it comes 
to RAID anyway...  any bios functions in the DPT controller setup that I 
should disable?
Anyone have any ideas?
     
Is there a knowledgeable individual @ DPT who is familiar with these 
controllers
and FreeBSD?  Their book that comes with the card doesnt even mention unix 
so....

Would FBSD running majordomo on a PII machine be able to handle 600 users
with 100 messages a day.  60,000 messages a day seems like a lot to me.

  snmpd (the daemon, that is server process) for FreeBSD supports the same
interface monitoring that mrtg does with your cisco.  I don't know how you
set up your virtual hosts, and whether they would appear as interfaces.
If not, just use ipfw with the "count" option

I'd like to setup V servers with own IP, WWW, FTP and mail service.
If it's possible could jou send me source of more infomation and
guide how to setup it?
Thanks

Use BPF and hack your own.  Since your application is unlikely to
coincide with anyone else's requirements, you're probably better off
that way.  libpcap will hide most of the BPF minutiae from you.

Do you know how many people participate in the freebsd mailing lists? I'm
doing some business planning and am trying to size the existing user base.
A guess would be great!

thanks,

How about running NeTraMet on a machine on the network.  It's an SNMP
accessable traffic accounting system that is widely used for just this
sort of thing.  You can find more information about it at
http://www.auckland.ac.nz/net/Internet/rtfm/.

BTW, current didn't need to see this, questions was plenty.

I'm copying the list on this reply because other people will know if
I'm wrong about any of it...

I think that when you elect to "download ports" during sysinstall, all
you are downloading is the skeleton directories and the Makefile.  If
you go to any particular port's directory and invoke make, it will look
to see if the compressed file is in /usr/ports/distfiles and if not, it
has a few known hosts to try.  So look in /usr/ports/distfiles and see
if anything is there.  Then go make a simple port (one that doesn't
have any other dependancies, like perhaps unzip in archivers.  Then
recheck /usr/ports/distfiles.  Before this auto-fetch will work though,
you have to configure a ppp dialup link and connect to your ISP.  Check
man ppp for details on setting up ppp.  It will take a little while to
understand.

If you buy the CD-ROMS from Walnut Creek, you can install these ports
without the ppp connection.  Always an option...  The ports are
currently undergoing major rework to support ELF binaries (don't ask me
what ELF stands for, it's just a newer format for executables to
replace a.out format).
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I've not played with a font server, but I don't see what that has to do
with ghostscript -- I believe that ghostscript handles the font files itself
and uses them to draw the individual characters.  I tried your example on a 2.2.5
system:

It works for me... admittedly, the times.ttf that comes with windows 3.1
may be different than the times.ttf that you use.  Perhaps ghostscript
cannot handle that particular ttf file.  Have you tried the ttf font
previewer that comes with libfreetype (http://www.freetype.org)?

Marty, THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK!

Anyone else have a solution, too (is there a software fix?)

I just checked www.adaptec.com and it does NOT have any
Adaptec 2940 BIOS patches (due to some problems with
their flash upgrade software rendering the SCSI card
inoperable on some systems).

So, I posted a technical support request on their on-line tech
support page on www.adaptec.com to see if I can receive
a down-grade to the BIOS to 1.25.

If my request falls on deaf ears at Adaptec, I'll try via Telephone
Tech Support.  And then as a last resort I'll request Mr. Cawthon
for a copy of that patch. (as I finish this e-mail, my automated
tech ticket from Adaptec just came in--hope I get a human
response tomorrow)

Again, thanks, Marty, for the response!  And thanx to the FreeBSD
community for 1) a clean, fast, stable OS and 2) for responding
to issues quickly.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

A friend of mine has a computer with a 3c900 card and my 2.2.7 floppy freezes
when the vx driver detects the card.  So, I want to build a custom boot disk
that has an updated GENERIC kernel with the new xl driver.  Getting a new NIC
is not an option, so please no replies to that effect.  I tried going to
/usr/src/release/floppies/boot and running make but it dies while trying to
link crunch claiming that ppp.lo references unknown functions.  Any
suggestions, tips, hints?  I really don't want to have to build a whole release
just to make a boot floppy.

In section 5.2 of the handbook, it states that if you don't have
/usr/src/sys on your system, then you are missing the kernel source. Then it
states, add the package to your system. 

My question is "Which package?". I have looked through all of the packages
descriptions on my CD and the FreeBSD web site, and I don't know which one
it is. 

Please help!

Thanks

     Thnaks to Brian Somers, I have the Digiboard setup, but am now running 
     into a new problem
     
     Whenever I try to dial out, tip core dumps without any error message. 
     
     If I try to connect directly to the modem to dial manually, I type in 
     ATDT (no carriage retun, just 4 characters) and get a response like: 
     AAAAAAAAAATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATDATDATDATDATDATDATDATDA
     ERROR
     Then it pumps newlines to the console or terminal and refuses to 
     respond to AT commands.
     In this mode, the TD and RD lights flash about 30fps (alternating, I 
     think)
     The modems are multi-tech multi-modem 28.8
     They are connected to a digiboard 4 port PC/4e
     
     Here are the system details:
     FreeBSD 3.0-19980924(?)-BETA
     
     #Systems definitions
     system|name changed to protect confidentiality:pa=odd:du:pn=\@:\
             :el=^U^C^R^O^D^S^Q:ie=%$:oe=^D:tc=modem1:

     modem3|direct connect to modem:cu=/dev/cuaD03:br#28800:
     
     This has got me pretty well stymied. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks to everyone who responded to my initial question. I've now gotten the
XBF_NeoMagic driver installed on my Dell Inspiron 3200, but I can't seem to
get out of 320x200 mode. I've pored over all the archives and e-mail, but
have had no success thus far. Help!

Any suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated...

I talked to tech support at Adaptec about down-grading the
Adaptec 2940UW BIOS from 1.34.3 (1998) to 1.25 (~1986).

He said the 1.34.3 BIOS in the card is 1) the most current and
2) the card CAN BE down-graded.  He gave me the password
protected site to download the BIOS file.

I'm going to give it a patch tonight and report my findings tomorrow.

Please e-mail me directly if you have experienced the same problems
with your Adaptec cards and FreeBSD.  I would like to send A LOT
of e-mails to Adaptec telling them that Linux and BSDaemons are
unsatisfied with their current SCSI cards and BIOS offerings.

The tech support mentioned that the current BIOS patches after
1.25 are to (only) enhance and support M$-Windows products  :(

So, please me some e-mail if you, too, are experiencing difficulty
with your FreeBSD and Adaptec products...

A few minutes ago, I said...

I just installed 2.2.7-STABLE (i love how many more packages you have
with it btw ;P)
and my gettytab file is giving me migranes.  I have a nice issue screen
that covers a good
2/3 of the screen, and i was using if=/etc/issue in my gettytab file to
point to it, however
when it comes to remote connections they just see "login:" and no issue
screen.  I converted the issue file into an im= statement line-per-line
and now telnetd refuses connections, however when i use a single line
im= statement instead it works.  This leads me to believe the issue
screen is perhaps too large, and that there is a restriction on the size
of remote issue screens.  My local consoles have no problem with the im=
statement though.  What I need to know is, am I right in assuming there
is a limit, is there any way around this or is there anyway to use an
if= to use an issue file and have it go out remotely?  Looked over the
faq and handbook and got no luck. I read the man page and  it's
unbelievably cryptic and says nothing about remote issue screens.  Help

By default ppp is trying to link with the DES crypt stuff 

I forget what I did to fix it..
I think it required recompiling  ppp in the source tree without the
DES options.. (so that the .o files didn't require DES)
(it was some -non-USA option)

yes that is why I made those makefiles etc.

hopefully the picoBSD crew will make 'boot' and 'fixit'
versions of picoBSD and then the old stuff can go away.

	To my knowledge no one has done an exhaustive list. If you do one make
sure to send it here, I'd like to know myself. 

Good luck,

Run "vidcontrol -m on" on each vty.

You can automate this by putting it in your login startup scripts, sending
all output to /dev/null.

Well, while waiting on a reply I got to fooling around with the raid
bios settings in the dpt controller... just out of curiosity, I turned off
the extented bios settings (toggle) in the DPT bios... then everything
worked fine...

any ideas if this is a good fix?  will not having these features enabled
hurt me later in performance / reliability?

any replies much appreciated.

I'm compiling the perl module giflib-3.0 on FBSD-2.2.7.
I got it from CPAN

I tried using the Makefile FBSD defaults but gcc couldn't find the include
file <X11/Xlib.h>  I found it in /usr/X11R6/include/X11.

Rather that editing the Makefile, is their a way to have it be included
every time I compile as a defalt include directory?

Thanks,

Start by defaulting your BIOS config; sounds like you may have really 
excessive I/O cycle delays enabled.

Sure.  Wire the devices.  I have pretty much the same problem on my
test machine: the boot disk is on an Adaptec 1542B, and the other
disks are on a 2940, which gets probed first.  Here's the relevant
part of my config file:

controller	ahc0
controller	adv0	at isa? port ? cam irq ?
controller	bt0	at isa? port ? cam irq ?
controller	aha0	at isa? port ? cam irq ?

controller	scbus0 at aha0 
controller	scbus1 at ahc0

This should go without saying.

I looked at FAQ 2.9, "Windows 95 killed my boot manager!..."  I thought
it might help my situation, which is that Windows NT killed my boot
manager.  I followed the directions from the FAQ, and a window popped up
which said "An application has attempted to directly access the hard
disk, which cannot be supported.  This may cause the application to
function incorrectly."  The choices were terminate and ignore.  I chose
ignore, but the result was "Error 128 reading boot record from disk 0"

I've been a UNIX user for a few years, but I'm a complete novice with
the administration side of things, and all of it makes me very nervous.
With constant reassurance from my TA, I more or less completed the
novice installation, but w/o a boot manager, I don't even know how
things are going on the FreeBSD side of my machine.  I bought it
partitioned so that NT is on C: and D: and F: was reserved for FreeBSD.

Please help!

Thanks
Christina

Which CD?  If it's the Walnut Creek 2.2.6 or later version, you'll
find the sources in /cdrom/src/ssys.a*.  Together they make up a
gzipped tar file.  You'll also find an ASCII version of The Complete
FreeBSD on /cdrom/book/book.txt, and that will give you more details
of what to do.

Hi,
I found this link with an AltaVista search when I was setting up isc-dhcp:

http://ftp.umu.se/pub/unix/src/samba-1.9.18p8/sol2/docs/DHCP-Server-Configuratio
n.txt

I just cut & pasted the sample into a file and hacked it down into a useable
config.  I'll send you mine if you'd like.  Frankly, I thought this was better
than the actual docs.

We\'re running FreeBSD 2.2.7 and CAP 6 patch 198 with ethertalk.  Erything works

quite well but CAP will only allow one user to connect at a time.  I have
created 12 bpf[0-12] and have set AUFS to allow up to 10 users via the -U

It looks like there is a ~800-byte limit on the welcome messgae,
whether it's in the form of an im= cap or an if= issue file.  There is
no size checking on the code that reads the data in, so your refused
logins are probably symptoms of telnetd dumping core.

Check the archives from last year around this.  If you enable "Plug
and Play SCAM" in the BIOS, this seems to fix the problem, or at least
it did for me back when I was using those old cards...

Hello,

You need to mount the cdrom first try mount /cdrom from the prompt.

After you booted up FreeBSD, did you use a mount command to link your CD-ROM
drive to your /cdrom directory? FYI, there are many versions of the mount
command, i.e. mount_msdos for mounting DOS partitions. If the regular mount
command doesn't work, try something like mount_iso9660.

Hope this helps!  :-)

Hello!

	I have a network class C (conected to Internet), some hackers are
cracking my server and i need to install a firewall.

	I have 2 xl NIC's (xl0 and xl1), but i dont know how will be the
rc.firewall configuration and how i can protect all my network for outside
attacks.

	In the rc.firewall i use the "simple" firewall type, but i dont
understand how i can divide my network class C in 2 networks (with a mask
255.255.255.128 sample).

	I need to have real internet ip's in the 2 NIC's becouse i want to
protect my WWW and e-mail servers.

Here is a sample of what i have and what i need:

		INTERNET
		   |
		   |
		My router (208.195.117.2)
		   |
		   |
		 ----------------------- (network class C 208.195.117.*)
  		   |             |     |
		   |             |     |
		WWW server   email server  and PCs
             208.195.117.11   208...12     208...13 (sample)



I need to protect all my network and i think the solution can be:

		INTERNET
		   |
		   |
		ROUTER  (208.195.117.2)
		   |
		   | 			  maybe mask 255.255.255.128
		FIREWALL (208.195.117.14) xl0 (first NIC) 
                   |
		   |  208.195.117.129 xl1 (second NIC) of the firewall
	        ------------------------
	        |          |        |       maybe mask 255.255.255.128	
                |	   |	    |
	    WWW server   email server  PC's ...
	    208.195.117.130  208...131   208...132  etc

Please i need help i how to plain the network and how to indicate the
rules in the rc.firewall

Iam desesperate becouse my network is attacked.

Thanks in advanced

Alejandro Galindo

O wise folks,
	Can fBSD be booted from System Commander?  Every time I try, all I get is
a "PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT." message.  If they can't play nice, is there
anything similar out there that works well with fBSD?
Thanks,
Dean

Yes.  This appears to be the problem. 

Because the driver doesn't seem to be able to correctly identify the bus
width, I think it would be a better idea to read the NVRAM values if they
are available.  Otherwise, those of us (anyone really) using a SCSI hard
drive that supports a WIDE bus but is running it on a NARROW bus connector
on a NCR/Symbios 53c875 card may run into this same problem.

Unfortunately, it is not a simple problem to fix unless you already have a
FreeBSD system that is bootable off of another drive.  If this is the
case, the fix is trivial by modifying ncr.c

But imagine a user trying to install FreeBSD and boot from boot.flp and
failing each time when the controller isn't able to talk to the hard drive
after switching to the WIDE bus.  I think this is a serious enough problem
to require a fix...

Yes, this is exactly the same problem I am having.  I guess if I wait a
very long time, it might get past the boot probe after failing to detect
the affected drives, but generally the boot probe shouldn't take 1 hour or
more to do.

Yes, it is the disks -- not the controller.

There is an easy fix if you already have a working FreeBSD system that
is booting off another drive.  As long as you are not using the WIDE bus,
you can force everything to 8 bit mode.  I found that changing the
SCSI_NCR_MAX_WIDE to 0 does the trick.  Of course, this forces 8 bit
mode and disables the WIDE bus, so you should not have any devices on the
WIDE bus.

As it is, this is not a real fix because you need a working system to
make the changes in ncr.c and then recompile the system.  So if a new
user wants to install FreeBSD on his hard disk, this quick fix will not
work as they won't be able to get through the installation.

Hello!

  We got  an Asus Pii-B motherboard with PII-350. Have installed 2.2.7.
THere's somethig wrong with it... Make world works perfect, but
slirp ports compiles but does not work, just hangs, and installed
cvsup-bin-15.4.2.tgz (via pkg_add) just hangs with "parsing supfile"...

  May be it's some setup problem??? DNS problem??? or it is a processor
compatibility problem????

  I don't have any ideas... :-(

Bye.

Installed and running, FreeBSD-2.2.7.  At least for awhile....
After initial basic install.   I went back and ftp installed some of the
`packages' to get a more usefull installation. Very time consuming of
course.  I've put a line in Lilo.conf on a linux install (same disk)
to boot BSD.  It has worked a few times.  

After the ftp package install.  On reboot, I get to lilo, select BSD
then get a prompt that keeps trying to start booting but only returns
to a `boot prompt' in a second or two.  Cycles endlessly.  I wasn't
able to see how to enter in a diagnostic mode or something to try to
see what might be wrong.

Whats likely to be causing this.    I tried just booting linux and
rerunning `lilo'  but got the same result.
I hate to reinstall now because of the installed packages getting
zapped.  Takes too long to get them again.

Trying to do something with the `fixit' floppy.  Soon as this is posted.

    Hello, every month I make a full backup of my system using DUMP with the
following sintaxis:
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /usr
    dump 0Bbfu 134217728 32 /dev/nrst0 /var


    When I'm making a restore in interactive mode I see the files to restore
and execute the command add, in interactive mode, but when I use the command
extract nothing is restoring, what is it happenning?. However the restore -r
to restore a file system it's working. Thank you.

You have a couple of ways to approach this.  You could use network address
translation and have private addresses for all your machines.  The "public"
machines would have static mappings to real IP addresses that are aliased
on the outside interface of the firewall.  You would also use ipfw rules to
control the traffic.

Another approach is to split your class C into subnets, one subnet for the
outside interface and the other for the inside interface, and then set up
ipfw rules and routes in the firewall to control the traffic.

If you want, I can help you with the rules once I know how you want to
proceed.

Or by using:
allscreens_flags="-m on"        # Set this vidcontrol mode for all virtual screens

in /etc/rc.conf from RELENG-2.2 and 3.0.

Agreed.  Reinstallation isn't the way to go.

Don't need to use fixit.  Boot floppy is enough.  Try:

  boot: wd(0)kernel

Assumes that FreeBSD installed on first IDE disk.  If on second,
prompt is:

  boot: wd(1)kernel

If SCSI disk, use sd instead of wd.

If not working, let us know with description of messages.

I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.7. with Samba, Apache and Appletalk mainly as a
mail server for approx 30 users.
The / partition 31Mb keeps overflowing although there is no significant
increase in disk file storage.
Apart from deleting the occasional xses.errors/root file approx15 Mb,
which doesn't seem to release any of the / file system, the only way of
reclaiming storage at present is a reboot. i.e. / 108% before and / 45%
after.
Can I maybe increase the / partition without a full rebuild?

The following problem occurs in FreeBSD, trying to compile numerical
software with large need of memory ( about 30 MB ):

Compiling ANSI C source code fails by (assembler) run-out of virtual
memory in /var/tmp/... 

Whence those questions:

	1. How can I rise the pertinent compiler limits ( which are 			these -
and where to be found ) ? 		 

	2. Can I cause the compiler to fall back on swap instead of 
	/var/tmp/... ( 100 MB of swap are installed ) ?

(The problem does not arise with Linux ).
 

Many  thanks and Best wishes !

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.  If there's no
significant increase, you won't overflow.

No, sorry, you can't do that.  I'd guess that you're filling up your
/tmp file system, or that you don't have a separate /var/tmp file
system, and you're filling that up.  In either case, you should
consider moving the directories to /usr and putting in a symlink.  I'm
appending an extract from "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition
(http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm).

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Where to put /var and /tmp
__________________________

Now  the installation is completed, but you may still have some housekeeping to
do.  Did you include a /var file system on  your  disk?   In  the  example,  we
didn't.  If  we  don't specify anything else, /var will end up on the root file
system, which isn't enormous.  If we leave things like  that,  there's  a  very
good  chance  that the root file system will fill up.  We solve this problem by
creating a directory  /usr/var  and  a  symbolic  link  /var  which  points  to
/usr/var:

# mkdir /usr/var                        create a new directory
# cd /var                               move to the old /var directory
# tar cf - . | (cd /usr/var; tar xf - ) copy its contents
# cd /                                  get out of the directory
# rm -rf /var                           and remove it
# ln -s /usr/var /var                   now link to the new directory

After performing these steps, you might see messages like:

Jan  9 13:15:00 myname syslogd: /var/run/utmp: no such file or directory

syslogd is the System Log daemon. [1] Don't worry  about  these  messages.   If
you're  intending  to  restart  the  system  soon, just wait until then and the
messages will go away.  Otherwise you can restart syslogd:

# ps waux | grep syslogd                look for the syslog daemon
root 152 11.0  1.6   176  476   v0 D+     1:16M   0:00.15 grep syslogd
root  58  0.0  1.1   184  332   ?? Ds     1:13    0:00:57 syslogd
# kill -9 58                            stop the PID of syslogd
# syslogd                               and start it again

The PID of the syslogd is the second field on the line  which  ends  with  just
syslogd.   The first line is the process which is looking for the text syslogd.
See Chapter 10, Making friends with FreeBSD, page 190, for more information  on
stopping processes.

Programs  should  not write large files to /tmp; if a program needs to create a
large temporary file, it should create  it  in  /var/tmp.   Unfortunately,  the
location  of  the  temporary  files  is not usually in your hands.  It would be
tempting to also replace /tmp with a symbolic link to /var/tmp, but the  system
handles  /tmp and /var/tmp slightly differently: after a reboot, it removes all
files from /tmp, but it leaves the files  in  /var/tmp.   You  can  solve  this
problem by creating a directory /usr/tmp and creating a link to it.

Perform the following steps in single-user mode (see Chapter 10, Making friends
with FreeBSD, page 191, for a description of single user mode and  how  to  get
into it).

# mkdir /usr/tmp                        create a new directory
# rm -rf /tmp                           and remove the old /tmp
# ln -s /usr/tmp /tmp                   now link to the new directory

Well, it runs out of virtual memory.  It's not related to a directory.

They're not compiler limits, they're system limits.  Take a look at
/etc/login.conf.  There's a man page to go with it.  For example, I
have an entry:

#
# grog - for the greedy user
#
grog:\
	:path=~/bin /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin:\
	:cputime=infinity:\
	:datasize=infinity:\
	:stacksize=infinity:\
	:memorylocked=infinity:\
	:memoryuse=infinity:\
	:filesize=infinity:\
	:coredumpsize=infinity:\
	:openfiles=infinity:\
	:maxproc=infinity:\
	:memoryuse-cur=infinity:\
	:maxproc-cur=512:\
	:openfiles-cur=1024:\
	:priority=0:\
	:requirehome@:\
	:umask=022:\
	:tc=auth-root-defaults:\

This entry name must match the login class in the /etc/master.passwd
file.  You might find it easier just to modify the default: entry.

No.  That happens automatically, and you can't stop it.

> (The problem does not arise with Linux ).

Then that would be a bug, not a feature, in Linux.  The purpose of the
login.conf limits is to stop people from hogging the machine in a
multiuser environment.  But I suspect that Linux has something
similar.  BTW, Linux and FreeBSD use the same compiler.

hi im trying to setup my FREEBSD 2.2.7 its all in my hard drive now im
just trying to configure everything. I have a problem with trying to
login as root.
when i loaded this o/s it asked me if i wanted a user passwd so im not
in "root"
all the time. so i made a normal login name and passwd.The problem is I
tried
to use my root passwd a number of times and cant figure out how to
access it.
unfortunately i didnt put my login name in the wheel group when it
probably
asked me if i wanted to.ive read the man pages on how to do this. and im
just
not getting it.I would like to configure my computer to run x windows
but when
i get through the configuration screens it tells me that i have to be in
root to go
on then im "stuck" because i have no idea how to access root.then i have
to abort the configuration. Which is very frustrating.Im not very goog
at putting in comm-
ands yet. can you tell me step by step using the keyboard how i can
successfully
put my login name in the wheel group! if you could show me how to add my
user
name to the wheel group. And what command i need to use to bring up the
file
/etc /group I understand its suppose to look like this wheel:*:O:root,
But i dont
know what keyboard buttons to push to access this file.And also once you
show
me how to put this file on my screen.And then show me what keyboard
buttons
i need to push to edit this file.And if this is to much to try and
explain.Could
you tell me what to get rid of so i automatically will always be root
when FREE-
BSD boots up.I understand this is risky but all take the chance!..I cant
get any-
thing done that i want to anyway because i cant figure out how to be
root on my system...Very frustrating. Im sorry this is so long .
                                        Thankyou

Hello

you can use your swap partition as a /tmp directory by using MFS
(Memory-based File System).

man mount_mfs ;>)
then your /tmp will be as large as your swap .... (and will be as fast as
a RAM-disk - well almost ...)

Hello,

I've had such problems with a 2.2.5 machine.
I did not see any monstrous file, but the / partition was filled : there
was a temporary file which had been deleted but not closed by a process
(so a reboot was enough to reclaim this space).

You can check the open files with 'lsof' (must be in the ports)
You can also mount another partition under the /tmp directory (which is
usually sitted in the / partition).
Anyway, there is no simple way to change the size of a FreeBSD partition
(partition Magic won't help ....;-)

This looks like you may have overwritten something important.  Go into
sysinstall (the install program which the floppy starts) and thence
via the Index into the partition editor.  See if you can find a
FreeBSD partition.  If you can, go into the disk label editor and see
what partition names are mentioned.

Not sure exactly what fixed it.  Before getting your last post.  I
started the install routine and chose `upgrade' I was instructed to
mount the partition I wanted upgraded.  I mounted all. /, /var, /usr
Allowed the bin package to be ostensibly, `upgraded'.  Then exited.

Booting with lilo now works again.  And the packages I had
painstakenly downloaded and installed survived the ordeal.

Thanks for your advice

Thanks, wd(1)kernel was the one I needed.  Inserting boot floppy and
trying the above, I get the same exact behaviour.

No messages are produced.  If I try to type anything at the prompt,
when I hit <RET> The screen scolls up and back to the prompt. If I let
it time out, the install routine starts.

Request:

Please can you allow adjtime() calls to trim the system clock?
Preferably, accumulate the adjustments in a file (probably ignoring
large adjustments).  This file could be read at bootup to trim the
system clock.

Background:

I understand that the kernel includes code to trim the clock frequency
when using xntpd.  However, xntpd raises the ISDN line to our ISP every
few minutes.

I would like to be able to use the accumulated error from ntpdate (say)
to train the kernel's clock to be within 0.5 sec/day (typically 0.1
sec/day) and use ntpdate just once a day.

I know that Irix from SGI supports this kind of technique with both
"timed" and "timeslave" daemons - albeit through special system calls.
I have written programs using ICMP TIMESTAMP messages to synchronise
both Linux (using adjtime) and HP-UX 9 systems (hacking the kernel) to a
group of SGI systems that co-operated with timed.

Many thanks for a great system,
Andy Robb.

Go to a login prompt, login: root, password: yourrootpassword, and
presto, you are root.

Forget about adding yourself to the wheel group for now.  When you boot the
machine up and it brings up the login prompt, login as root instead of the
normal user.. i.e.:

login: root
password: ******

If you have actually set a root password, use that for the password.  If
you haven't, just hit enter without typing in a password and that'll log
you in.

Once you get logged in, type whoami at the prompt.  It should say root.
Then you can add yourself to the wheel group.  To do it, you'll need to
know how to use a text editor.  Read the man page for vi (man vi) for the
commands used with vi.  It'd be a good idea to open them on a separate
virtual terminal so you can read it while you're using it.

To add yourself to the wheel group, do the following at the prompt..

cd /etc
vi group

When the file opens add yourself to the group line behind root.. 

wheel:*:0:root,your_user_id

Save the file and log in as yourself and at the prompt type su and it'll
ask for a password.  Type in the root password and you're done.

If you're not sure it worked, use the whoami command and if you're root,
it'll tell you.  If it shows your user id, then it didn't work.

Hope this helps..

Jim

I am going to be setting up a 2.2.7 -stable box for a friend and was
wondering, if I cvsup the latest ports, will the still build aout ? or
are they all elf now so I need to use the packages ? I would much rather
use the ports.

Thanks

Use "mount   /cdrom"
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in
minutes.

 It's likely not the compiler's problem here; but a user-limit problem
you're running into.

 You can increase your limit using varying commands; but this is initially
controlled by the entries in /etc/login.conf.

 The man page for "login.conf" provides more detail.

Hello All,

I'm trying to run Oracle 8.0.5 beta for Linux on FBSD 2.2.7.
Linux emulation in rc.conf is YES, linux_lib 2.4 is installed,
binaries is branded, but then I try to start it say:
libm.so.6 not found  :(

Any suggestions are welcome

Thank you.

Darius

Greetings,

I am running FreeBSD V2.2.6.

All of a sudden I seem to have lost my log files.
"messages" and "maillog".

Well, that is to say they are not being generated anymore. I have the last
.gz files which now date back to the 25th and 29th.

Why has my system stopped generating these log files? Any takers?

Greg Bedrossian

You need to run 3.0 to get the latest linux emulator.
You need an updated linux lib distribution.

Then you need good kernel hacking skills, as it doesn't work yet.

We are working on it though...

I know there's already some discussion about his in the past, I would
like to know if anybody had successfully connect an OS/2 Warp with
FreeBSD over a parallel port.
Thank you.

This should not go into freebsd-bugs, at most into freebsd-questions
where I redirect it to.

You may not have TCP/IP enabled at all in your kernel, or
/usr/X11R6/bin/X(server) is not suid root (mode 4755), is what comes
to mind.

Also you may have a messed up /etc/hosts with a wrongly configured
loopback.

What does ifconfig -a and netstat -rn give?

I had precisely the same problem with that card. The solution (as suggested by
someone one this list) was to label the disk with partitions smaller than 1GB
initially, install everything, and then manually relabel and re-newfs. My setup
was similar to yours, and I was able to tar up the temporary smaller-than-1GB
/usr partition, delete the /usr partition, relabel the disk so that the /usr
partition was the size I wanted, newfs the new partition, and then restore the
contents from the tarball. Since the /usr partition was the last partition on
the disk, this was no problem. 

Why I was able to newfs the partition manually but not through sysinstall is a
mystery to me, but there it is. I haven't had a single problem with the setup
since then.

Well, just an update for everyone... I thought I had the problem licked with
this
DPT controller.  Last night I shut down the machine,
and this morning I booted it up and it hung on the file system checks

I then got experimental again.  I booted up with the distribution cd
and tried to repartion/reinstall freebsd again and guess what, even with the
bios settings from the time that worked, it still hung in the newfs

Just thought I would pass on to everyone that this is still an issue...

ok i like the idea to have static mappings to real IP addrs. that are
aliased on the out interface, how can i do that?

ok in this case i can setup my outside network like a half class C (mask
255.255.255.128) with the next ips: 208.195.117.1 - 208.195.117.127, and
the inside net with the ips 208.195.117.129 - 208.195.117.254.

Actually, the external router's ethernet port now is 208.195.117.2 with a
mask /25, i will need to change the mask here too? and if yes, why the
router indicate to me invalida mask /25? (the router is a CISCO 4000).

Other questions:

	I think if its posible to connect the firewall directly with the
Router (without a hub) with a cross cable dos it work? or is necesary to
use the hub? 

	and how can i setup the routes in the firewall?

THANKS, i will apreciate that very much

Well, frame buffers (or video cards) have limited amounts of memory.
The amount of memory allocated per pixel depends on your "color depth",
and the number of pixels depends on the resolution you're using.

A common way to reduce the memory consumption is to use a smaller "color
depth" -- 8 bits/pixel (or 256 distinct simultaneously displayable colors),
even though the number of possible colors that may be specified is 2^24
(16 777 216).

But in order for this to work, it's necessary to allocate a (fairly
small) amount of memory in the frame buffer for a "colormap table" --
basically, an array of 24-bit colors, indexed by an 8-bit value.

The default mode is that all applications share a colormap; if you're
looking at a Web page that is sufficiently rich in color variations, the
Web browser can consume all available colormap entries (remember, there
are only 256, if you're using an 8-bit "color depth").

You could increase your color depth, but you may need to either use a
frame buffer with more memory, or use a lower resolution.

Or you could invoke netscape with the "-install" option, which tells it
to use its very own private colormap -- but this means that as the mouse
goes between the netscape window & other windows, you will see a
phenomenon called "color flashing" (as the display switches between the
netscape private colormap & the global one).

I installed 3.0-19980928-BETA from scratch, and have 18 hard disks in
the machine.  The boot process recognizes da0....da17, and fdisk allows
me to write partition tables on all, but some other utilities like newfs
and (I think) mount have difficulties with >da9 (i.e., da10....da17 for
me). newfs even seems to clobber the partition table when I try "newfs
-b 8192 -f 1024 /dev/rda10s1e." I am using two Adaptec 2940 controllers,
and da9 (which works fine) is on the second controller, I don't think
the controller stuff is the issue. Is there a workaround or some pointer
to something I should read that would help me here? Thanks!

Hans-Werner

PS: The machine also has two 450MHZ PII processors, and SMP was easy to
get going, and seems to be working fine.  Good job, guys!

Are you using user-ppp or pppd for your ISDN link?  Both have a filter
feature where you can specify exactly which packets trigger a dialout. 
In pppd, it's called "active-filter".  In ppp, it's called "dfilter"
and "afilter".

If you tell ppp to not dial out on UDP port 123 packets, you can leave
xntpd running all the time.  It will sync when the line is up, and will
do its best when the line is down.

Configure xntp to use hardware clock at a low stratum (say 10 or so):

  server server.onthe.inter.net
  server 127.127.1.0
  fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
  driftfile /etc/ntp.drift

So when you are offline, xntpd will use the hardware clock (adjusted
for drift).  When you are online, it will resync to a more accurate
time source.

The NTP faq at http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ has a lot of articles on
this exact topic, but they all boil down to what I just said above :)

     at the boot:> prompt, type in "-s" as in
     boot:> -s
     
     This will boot into single user mode as root without a login. if your 
     / partition mounts read only you will then need to remount it
     
     mount -uw /
     
     then use the passwd command to change the root passwd.

hi im trying to setup my FREEBSD 2.2.7 its all in my hard drive now im 
just trying to configure everything. I have a problem with trying to 
login as root.
when i loaded this o/s it asked me if i wanted a user passwd so im not 
in "root"
all the time. so i made a normal login name and passwd.The problem is I 
tried
to use my root passwd a number of times and cant figure out how to 
access it.
unfortunately i didnt put my login name in the wheel group when it 
probably
asked me if i wanted to.ive read the man pages on how to do this. and im 
just
not getting it.I would like to configure my computer to run x windows 
but when
i get through the configuration screens it tells me that i have to be in 
root to go
on then im "stuck" because i have no idea how to access root.then i have 
to abort the configuration. Which is very frustrating.Im not very goog 
at putting in comm-
ands yet. can you tell me step by step using the keyboard how i can 
successfully
put my login name in the wheel group! if you could show me how to add my 
user
name to the wheel group. And what command i need to use to bring up the 
file
/etc /group I understand its suppose to look like this wheel:*:O:root, 
But i dont
know what keyboard buttons to push to access this file.And also once you 
show
me how to put this file on my screen.And then show me what keyboard 
buttons
i need to push to edit this file.And if this is to much to try and 
explain.Could
you tell me what to get rid of so i automatically will always be root 
when FREE-
BSD boots up.I understand this is risky but all take the chance!..I cant 
get any-
thing done that i want to anyway because i cant figure out how to be 
root on my system...Very frustrating. Im sorry this is so long .
                                        Thankyou

Absolutely.  These drivers support 100Mbit versions of their respective
cards:

de	Digital-based cards (10/100 cards are in the 2114X series)
fxp	Intel EtherExpress PRO/100[B+]
vx	3com Etherlink III PCI, Fast EtherLink XL (!3c905B)
xl	3com Fast Etherlink XL series (including 3c905B, current only?)
tl	ThunderLAN-based cards (Compaq NetFlex among others)
tx	Newer SMC PCI Ethernet cards (9???TX)

There are probably others.  

Most of the crds on this list are autodetecting, and will adjust their
rate to match the network.  If you need to force it manually, most of
these drivers support the 'media' style arguments to ifconfig; do
'ifconfig -m if0' where if0 is the interface for the list of supported
speeds.

We have de and fxp cards at my house plugged into a Netgear 100Mbit hub
and everything detects perfectly.

Hope this helps.

We need more information. What is the name brand of your card? Is it
NE2000 compatible? What are the IRQ and IO numbers for the card? Do you
have more than one card?

Actually, the first subnet is 208.195.117.0 - 208.195.117.127, with .0 and
.127 not useable. The second is 208.195.117.128 - 208.195.117.255, with
.128 and .255 not useable.

A /25 mask is the same thing as 255.255.255.128; it should currently be a
/24 (255.255.255.0). What version of the Cisco IOS are you running? Have
you specified "ip classless" and "ip subnet zero" in your config? If not,
that's probably why it's barking at you. Traditionally, subnet zero and
subnet one (the first and last subnets in a classed network) were
unusable, because the first subnet contains the network address for the
entire network, and the last subnet contains the broadcast address for the
entire network. This leaves no useable addresses in a class C
split in two. Classless routing and VLSM have solved the first problem,
and no-one ever uses the all subnets broadcast anyway :P so the second
problem is moot. Cisco defaults to "traditional" settings, though, so you
need to explicitly tell it you're not using classed networks ("ip
classless"), and you'd like to use subnets zero and one ("ip subnet
zero").

A well-constructed crossover cable will do the trick fine. You can,
however, use a hub instead if you have any hosts you want to stick outside
the firewall for any reason.

> 	and how can i setup the routes in the firewall?

1) Turn on IP forwarding by setting gateway_enable="YES" in your rc.conf.

2) Modify the static_routes entry in /etc/rc.conf and add some route
   descriptions.

The rc.conf manpage is a little sketchy on the details, but in general,
you name the routes you're setting up in static_routes, and add a line for
each route you've named as follows:

static_routes="one two three"
route_one="-net 192.168.1.0 192.168.0.1"
route_two="-net 192.168.2.0 -netmask 255.255.255.128 192.168.0.5"
route_three="-net 192.168.2.128 -netmask 255.255.255.128 192.168.0.25"

Each route_* line is passed as an argument to a "route add" command at
startup.

Note that these are *examples* only. They have nothing to do with your
situation. As a matter of fact, I don't think you'll need any static
routes at all, unless you put more than one network behind the firewall.
Just set the defaultrouter in the rc.conf to be the IP address of the
Cisco's ethernet interface. The networks 208.195.117.0/25 and
208.195.117.128/25 will be directly connected. Then be sure to set the
default gateway on the hosts behind the firewall to be the internal IP
address of the firewall.

You'll need a reboot to make the firewall start forwarding packets between
interfaces, or you can do it by hand:

sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1

The reboot will also set up your new static routes, or, again, you can do
this by hand without a reboot, with the route add command.

That's the easy stuff, though ;) The real fun is setting up natd and
ipfirewall.

Cheers,
Mick

CTRL-ALT-+ and CTRL-ALT--

Or edit /etc/XF86Config in the display section to change the order of the
modelines. Don't know what mode lines are? Check out "man X" and "man
xf86config".

I strongly recommend that you use the "ee" text editor if you are a
beginner. "Vi" is incredibly hard to understand for a beginner.

So instead of "vi group" your should type "ee group".

(To everyone else: Don't even start. I don't want editor wars. I just want
to make it easy on a new user.)

Yes. Look at ip aliasing. The info is on the web at
http://www.cypher.net/~black/ipalias.html
http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ppp21.html#24

The two sites talk of two different areas, but both include aliasing info.

Didn't you ask this once already?  Yes, 2.2 supports a bunch of 100MBit
cards (you'll need to check the FAQ/handbook, or release notes for 2.2.5,
to see exactly which ones).  As for making it work, it's just like adding
any other bit of hardware:

Maybe configure jumpers on card
Plug card into machine
Maybe configure card using crufty DOS-based setup program
Build kernel with appropriate driver for card
It works!

If you're really lucky you might get a card that does Plug-n-Pray properly,
so you can skip most of the configuration steps.

HTH, HAND,

	Scott.

A quick check through my mailboxes for this list and -current for the
last month or three reveals ...

=== ben@scientia[p0]:~/mail/lists$ grep -h ^From: freebsd-{current,questions}* | sort -fu | wc -l
   1756
=== ben@scientia[p0]:~/mail/lists$

Well it's probably a long way from perfect, since
 - probably not all users are subscribed
 - not all of those who are subscribed will contribute
 - people may have more than one address, or use different MUAs which
   send the From: header in slightly different formats.
 - From: may occur in the body

But that only counts people who have sent messages to two of FreeBSD's
lists, that doesn't include other lists and people who haven't posted in
the last few months. There are probably a lot of users :-)

Of course, you said you only wanted the number of participants, so (+/-
a few %) that maybe what you have...

I'd also like to know (out of curiosity) how many FreeBSD users there
are. I think I read somewhere that 100,000 had been estimated, though
that may be way out and I can't remember where I read it either.

To start off, I will need to know how many machines are going to be publicly
accessible and what protocols need to be able to get to them.

You can connect the firewall directly to the router if you use a cross cable.

Since you will have 2 different network addresses on the two nic cards, all
you will need to do is specify a default route and the rest will be handled
by the IP forwarding code.

2.2.7 no longer includes two ed's in the GENERIC kernel.  You
need to build a custom kernel with support for two ed devices.
Just copy the current line for ed0, change the name to ed1 and
the irq and mem to whatever your card is using.

We use netatalk as it has it's appletalk stack in the kernel.
(and appletalk routing) which speads things up somewhat..

Hello,

This is the problem :

IBM PC Server 330, PPRO 200 with onboard SCSI controller.
SCSI : AIC-7880 Ultra Wide W Bios v 1.25), SCSI chip 7880p.
We start with visual, remove all the conflicting devices, save the
configuration and ...

...
chip0: <Intel 82440FX (Natoma) PCI and memory controller> rev 0x02 on
pci0.0.0
vga0: <Cirrus Logic GD5436 SVGA controller> rev 0x01 on pci0.7.0
chip1: <IBM 82351 PCI-PCI bridge> rev 0x01 on pci0.16.0
chip2: <Intel 82375EB PCI-EISA bridge> rev 0x15 on pci0.19.0
Probing for devices on PCI bus 1:
ahc0: <Adaptec aic7880 Ultra SCSI adapter> rev 0x00 int a irq 15 on pci1.4.0
ahc0: Illegal cable configuration!!. Only two connectors on the adapter may
be used at a time!
ahc0: aic 7880 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/255 SCBs
lnc1: <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> rev 0x16 int a irq 11 on pci1.5.0
Probing for devices on the ISA bus:
sc0 at 0x60-0x6f irq 1 on motherboard
sco: VGA color <4 virtual consoles, flags-0x0>
lpt0 at 0x3bc-0x3c3 irq 7 on isa
lpt0: Interrupt-driven port
lp0: TCP/IP capable interface
fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa
fdc0: FIFO enabled, 8 bytes threshold
fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in
npx0 on motherboard
npx0: INT 16 interface
changing root device to fd0s4c
rootfs is 1440 Kbyte compiled in MFS
[the system stops here]

P.S.: We have tested the procedure with 2 IBM Servers. No problem with
2.2.6, Linux RH5 and NT4.0 (despite the message "Illegal cable
configuration"), same problem with 3.0 (CAM and no-CAM).

Any ideas ? Anyone with the same hardware (IBM PC Server 330) ?

TIA,

Is there a freeware ANSI C compiler available for FreeBSD.

I'm trying to compile Regina REXX for my FreeBSD system and it tells me that
the C compiler that's installed doesn't support ANSI.?!?!?!?!?

I've just setup FreeBSD from the CheapBytes FreeBSD CD I purchased a week
ago. £4.00 - a bargain!

Please can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Alan Green

PS: Regina REXX is available at ftp.lightlink.com (/pub/hessling/Regina)

Alan -

 The C compiler that comes with FreeBSD is GCC.  It is quite ANSI.

 Can you provide more details about the complaint?

Has syslogd died? Have you removed the entries from /etc/syslog.conf?

Greetings -
I'm about to re-subscribe to FreeBSD, but I'm not decided on whether I
should take 2.2.8 or 3.0 (or both).

I use Exabyte tape drives very frequently, and I understand that the new
SCSI CAM code in current does not yet support these tape drives. Will the
code to support Exabytes drives be in 3.0-RELEASE? If not, I'll have to
take a pass.

Regards,
- Mike

If you are using nat you don't need "real" IPs on the internal interface.  You could use private IPs on the internal interface and map them to the real IPs on the external interface.

As pointed out you can do the mapping:

External           Internal
208.195.117.1      208.195.117.129
208.195.117.2      208.195.117.130
etc

or with private addresses:

208.195.117.1      192.168.117.1
208.195.117.2      192.168.117.2
etc

In either case you need to alias a number of IPs on the external interface, but using private addresses doubles what you can use and you don't have to subnet.

Otherwise there is no difference on how it's done, but just to make it clear before you do this. 8-)

conf t
ip subnet-zero
wr mem

Without this you cannot use any .0 subnet and in this case would waste a few addresses.

Yes. A cross cable will work.

The ports are smart enough to detect if you're running elf and act

(The easy solution is to simply run "CC=cc ./configure". more detailed
info for Mr Hessling follows)

Whoa weird :)

loading cache ./config.cache
checking for one of the following C compilers: c89 acc gcc cc... using /usr/bin/c89
checking for gcc... (cached) c89
checking whether the C compiler (c89  ) works... yes
checking whether the C compiler (c89  ) is a cross-compiler... no
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
checking whether c89 accepts -g... yes
checking if compiler supports ANSI prototypes... no
configure: error: Regina requires an ANSI compiler; cannot continue

I don't think ./configure should be looking for c89 at all.

The reason the configure tests fail is that c89 does NOT take -O2 as an
argument; see http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xcu/c89.html.

Also, the config line on like 889 is wrong (see
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xbd/utilconv.html#usg ,
guideline 9):

ac_compile='$ac_cv_prog_CC conftest.$ac_ext $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS -c1>&5 2>&5'

should be:

ac_compile='$ac_cv_prog_CC $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext -c1>&5 2>&5'

There are a bunch of other c89-related errors; c89 is a strict POSIX
compiler with no extensions, and probably shouldn't even be tested for.

I'm new to FreeBSD and UNIX and would like help regarding installing
programs (Which I think are PORTS?) I've been trying to install Hangman from
the /usr/src/games/hangman I've tried a few of the suggested commands but
don't seem to be able to figure them out? Any help would be most
appreciated.

Also I'd like to know how to then run the program(s)?

Thanks in advance
Paul

	Does the file mountpoint /mnt exist?  If not, as root,
	you have to create it.


> (I am using 2.2.7).  Also, after I get it mounted, how do I view its
> contents and transfer stuff to it.  


	Once you've mounted the floppy on mount it will be empty
	(with only . and ..).  You can cp files to it or from it.

	# cp -rp /etc /mnt

	for example, to save your current configuration files; then

	# ls -lsR /mnt

	to see what's there.

	The filesystem you've created on floppy is a parallel to
	what you have on your hard drive(s).

	Sorry, don't know nothin' about DOS/Lose95.  I could hand-wave
	here, but I deplore handwaving, so I'm cc'ing your questions
	to the -questions list.

	If you're not already subscribed to questions@freebsd.org,
	you might consider it.  Hundreds of super-savvy folk over 
	there.

	Please let me know about your /mnt mountpoint and if you
	get everything working.

Where can I find some detailed information on the Xresources file?
Meaning what the correct coding is and stuff.
Some location that would elaborate on xdm would be great. (some examples.)
Thanks,

Hello --
I'm new to UNIX, but need to jump in and get some stuff done.

Can someone point me to a resource that would explain how to upgrade my BDS 
2.2.5 server's HDD?

The current disk is 420Mb and I have a 1.7 that I'd like to move up to.

I bought this image-creation software called QuickStart from a company 
called EST Inc.

It works great to create a disk image (including boot sector) of my current 
HDD, but after restoring it to the 1.7Gig drive, BSD starts to boot, then 
quits as it realizes that the drive geometry is different that it expects. 
 Is there a better way to do this?  I bet there is.

Thanks for the help!

Yes, it does, and has done for a long time.

This says that some previous run of ./configure has chosen c89.  To
quote from the man page:

DESCRIPTION
     This is the name of the C language compiler as required by the IEEE
     Std1003.2 (``POSIX.2''). standard.

In other words, this is POSIX.2, not ANSI.

To get rid of this problem, rm config.cache and try again.

Also make sure that you don't have c89 set as the compiler in your CC
environment variable.

Hello,

My name is Dale and I am trying to install v2.2.5 onto a Micropolis 9gb 
harddrive. This is my second scsi drive. My first scsi drive has Win95
installed on it. The CDs are from Walnut Creek CD-ROM.

The error I am getting is:

panic: ufs_lock: recursive lock not expected, pid: 1

I encountered this error after I chose the distribution packages, and the
installation program was just about to prepare the freebsd partition.
Also, I tried installing it before and made mistakes. However, the FreeBSD
boot manager was already in place during my latest attempt.

What I am trying to do:
Boot Manager = Boot Easy

Drive 1: HP SCSI
   C: Win95 primary
   D: Win95 extended
   E: Win95 extended

Drive 2: MICROPOLIS SCSI
   F: Win95 extended
      Linux
      FreeBSD

During the Boot Manager Installation I chose the following options:
Boot Mgr for sd0? install
Boot Mgr for sd1? standard

What usually causes this type of error? 

I suspect my hard drive is at fault, but don't know of other tests
to confirm. When I tried installing OS/2, the fdisk (os/2) reported a
problem with the MBR for drive 2. As best I can recall, the message:
fdisk unable to detect MBR.

What other information do you require?

Thanks,
Dale

So the thing, is that i need , to connect directly the cisco to my
freebsd, and then connect the second nic to the hub,, so i can only
then,
start the ipfw, and make the rules , and then ALL the people , (machines
1and 2 ) if they want to reach the internet, the have first to
to pass the FREEBSD server.
all my ips are valid  and, the FreeBSD server uses a different gateway
than the machines 1,and 2  to reach the internet cause the ip's from
machine 1 , 2 are in the subnet 167.114.17.  and the server, its on the
subnet 167.114.28.
my cisco have two gateways configured.

the questions....
does routed can do the job, or do i need gated?
do i need natd?

wich options do i need to configure in the rc.conf, and in the kernel?

Thank you very much!!

-Jorge.

I am trying to get a FreeBSD box set up behind a microsoft proxy server.  It
gets an address and network info via DHCP fine and can thus access the
internal network.  However, traffic bound for the internet needs to pass
through a proxy server at port 80.  Netscape can be configured to use the
proxy but, of course, things like telnet and ncftp are not so lucky.  Is
there an easy (read: without rebuilding telnet and ncftp from modified
sources) way to do this?  It is okay if all traffic (bound for internal or
external) goes through the proxy... it does the Right Thing even if you
boune internal packets off it.

Thanks,
Scott

Don't use tabs in ascii art, your diagram was unusable.

Given that you have two different networks (IP wise) all you need
to do is turn on IP forwarding

enable_gateway="YES"

Do not use routed or gated.  You do not need natd.

> wich options do i need to configure in the rc.conf, and in the kernel?

You have to turn on the ipfw options inn the kernel (see LINT) and
set firewall_enable="YES" and firewall_type="open" (to get started)
Change the firewall type once you have rules defined and you are 
ready to test them.

After installing FreeBSD-2.2.7,  I haven't been able to figure out how
the mouse is supposed to work.  The dialogue box where you test to see
if it works duing install, showed it to be working.

Now when logged in I can hylite text in console mode and it sort of
shivers and glitters as well as hylites.  But no movement of text from
one place to another seems possible.  To insert something at the
command line, isn't happening.  Left click, hylite and copy, right
click paste isn't it?  Anyway I've tried every combination I could
come up with.

Went back to the dialog box and verified that the mouse was working
several times.  Still no copy takes place.

Hi,
  After reading through the mailing-list archives, reading the FAQ and
handbook i am unable to get Realplayer5.0 for linux to work on my FreeBSD
2.2.7 system. The program starts up, appears to hang, and then i get a
message "unable to open audio device". The permissions on /dev/audio0 are
crw-rw-rw which i believe are correct. Also, when i just do a cat
sound_file.au > /dev/audio the sound works fine. If i just try to play the
welcome.ra file that comes with it, the video works, but no sound will
play. Any ideas anyone ?


Michael

Of course, I tried every combination known to man including middle
mouse. No go.  But in console mode isn't it just right mouse to paste? 
I know its middle mouse in X but haven't installed X stuff yet.

On linux box its just right mouse in console mode to paste.
But like I said, middle mouse doesn't do it either.

Is there, I have a Sun Sparc 10/30, I'm considering upgrading from SunOS
4.1.3 to Redhat, but FreeBSD is $49.95 cheaper, if there is support??

Thanks

They're both free if you download them from the Net.

Try -questions for support.  Lots of people like them.  If you want to
pay for support, check out http://www.lemis.com/grog.

According to moused(8):

     Cut and paste functions in the virtual console assume that there are
     three buttons on the mouse.  The logical button 1 (logical left) selects
     a region of text in the console and copies it to the cut buffer.  The
     logical button 3 (logical right) extends the selected region.  The logi-
     cal button 2 (logical middle) pastes the selected text at the text cursor
     position.  If the mouse has only two buttons, the middle, `paste' button
     is not available. 

I've just tried it (I don't normally use the text modes) and it works
fine for me.  I assume you have enabled the mouse, because otherwise
you wouldn't have been highlighting, though the sparklies suggest you
might have a strange video board.  What is it?

Also, how are you trying to paste?  Into what?

I've just seen that you're looking for a Sparc version of FreeBSD.
Sorry, there ain't no such thing.  Try NetBSD
(http://www.NetBSD.org/).

1st I'd like to thank all those that offered help. the last person 
said I need to issue a 'translate' comamnd at the sbm prompts as such.

smb: \> translate
CR/LF<->LF and print text translation now on
smb: \> print news1.sh
printing file news1.sh as news1.sh

smb: \> 

And the file PRINTED !!!!  CORRECTLY !!!!

THANK YOU ! .. Now.. *ok you knew it was coming*. How do I get it to
print this way by DEFAULT. Such as in aplications as Netscape and other
programs to default to print though the Samba without me having to log to
Samba. Or is this not possable ?


Thanks again !

     I really need some help here to connect to the internet with a
cable modem.  I went through
many articles about this but they were all for serial connections.  And
here is a list of the things that I am not sure of.

1. Do I need to set up PPP?
    And if PPP is not required what do I have to modify before I can get
the internet to work.
2. My ISP assigns dynamic ip addresses therefore I don't know what I
should fill in the file
    rc.conf.
3. Do I have to setup a Domain name server?

Thanks for your attention
Jonathan

Big mistake thinking it would be the same, should have read man page.
I was trying to paste something form the screen to the command line.
But I see the rub in the manpage you posted.  I have a two button
mouse.  Apparently not supported in FreeBSD scheme.  Linux uses left
and right together to simulate `middle'.

Thanks for your patience

It's telling you the disk is dead or dying.  It could be lying.

Morning guys ...

Did anyone ever got dhcpd running to support a LAN with a
FEW subnet, without using the relay server.  Did anyone
play around with net/sub-netmasking.

Thanks

If you're using DHCP, I don't think you want need PPP.  I'm in a similar 
situation.  I'm using ADSL and DHCP.  If you want to see how I set my 
system up, see my website as noted in my signature.  Hope it helps.  Let 
me know if it doesn't because that means there's more room for improvement 
that I thought. <grin>

Nope.  But if you want to, you can.  It us useful.  If all it ever does is 
cache what you've already retrieved, it reduces net traffic and makes your 
access just a little bit faster.  Again, instructions on on my site.

	A) As far as I could tell, you didn't specify what you needed help
with.
	B) I said that.

	It sounds like your ISP is using DHCP, most cable modem services do. If
so, check out http://home.san.rr.com/dhcp.html.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG

I am trying to set up my modem to get internet access in FreeBSD 2.2.6.
I have scoured the newsgroups and mailing list archives and a number of
people have asked how to set the modem up and been directed to the
complete FreeBSD book.

I am relatively new to Unix and am trying to come to terms with a lot of
the concepts in it. I have read the FreeBSD book and can not remember
seeing a step by step guide to setting up your modem to work. My modem
is an internal modem but it I don't have a manual for it and therefore
don't know if it's plug and play or not. I am not connected to a
network.

However, I have done the following:

altered the ppp.conf file to contain the details of my ISP.
typed in ppp
typed in dial ISP

I get the following message:

Dial attempt 1 of 1
Phone:
Warning: Dial Modem: dial failed

My questions are:

How do I find out if the kernel has detected my modem ?
If it hasn't what do I need to alter in order to get it to detect my
modem ?

Thanks in advance for any help on this

It is definitely BAD idea. It breaks any reasonable security policy.

Hi all,

I've got two problems I need help with.. the first is my cd-rom drive.
When I try to mount it, I get the following error..

[root@rain:~]# mount /cdrom
mount: /dev/wcd0c: Input/output error

I get the same error if I try to mount it with mount_cd9660.  It's an atapi
cd-rom and the devices exist in /dev and it's detected..

wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa
wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): <GCD-R580B/1.05>, removable, accel, dma, iordis
wcd0: 171/1367Kb/sec, 128Kb cache, audio play, 255 volume levels, ejectable
tray
wcd0: 120mm audio disc loaded, unlocked, lock protected

I checked the FAQ and can't find anything about it.. am I doing something
wrong when trying to mount it?

My second problem is with my soundblaster.  I compiled it into the kernel,
made the snd0 devices and it's recognized..

sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa
sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.13>

but I still can't get any sound.  Nothing else is on irq 5, so I don't
think it's an irq conflict.  I have x11amp installed and tried playing a
mp3 and it core dumps with the following message..

Oct  2 17:04:59 rain /kernel: PCM device 0 not installed.
Oct  2 17:05:00 rain /kernel: pid 259 (x11amp), uid 1001: exited on signal
11 (core dumped)

I assumed I needed to add device pca0 to the kernel, but when I tried to
recompile it died with a bunch of soundblaster errors.  I assume I can
compile both devices in (sb0 and pca0) but when I try the compile dies.. (I
tried 4 times).. any ideas on what might be happening here?  Am I totally
off with this stuff?  It's becoming more of I want sound so I know how to
get everything working instead of I want sound so I can hear it :-)  Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Jim

In the last message I sent, I said that I tried to recompile with
pca0.. it was actually device pcm0.. sorry about the typo.. the
problem still exists btw.

i'm ending up with useless
tunX (ppp) devices on a dialup
server.  they disappear if i
reboot the machine, but otherwise,
i can't get rid of bogus

tunX: flags=8050<POINTTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

lines in my ifconfig -a output.

they should say:

tunX: flags=8010<POINTTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

what causes this?  and what can i do about it?

it's causing me to run out of available
tunX devices.  2.2.7 running ppp -alias.

i have a feeling it's from
bad connects/disconnects ...

i notice as time goes on,
my machine uses more and more
VM.  i allocated 800M of cache
to squid (2.2.7).  at this point,
the cache has ~128M of data ...

my VM has gone from 0M used
(when the system fired up)
to 21M of 128M "in use".

my question is, will i run out
of VM before my cache fill up
to it's 800M capacity?

i guess it could be DNS swallowing
my VM, but before i ran squid, DNS
effects seemed to be negligible.

It may, however, be beneficial to have a hub there to allow you to 
place a dedicated "evidence gathering" sniffer on the wire in the 
event that one would be needed.

Just my $0.02.

While talking (E-mail) to SuperMicro about a problem with an Adaptec =
3940UW OR a 2940UW and one of their motherboards.
(P6DLH motherboard, i960 I/O controller)

I suggested that there was some fundamental design problem with there =
motherboard, because I have used that exact-same controller with FreeBSD =
2.2.7 on another motherboard with no problems. I have also been through =
all the normal trouble-shooting.

The original problem was that FreeBSD would just sit-there waiting for =
the SCSI disk to settle, and timeout! But if I took it to another PC... =
NO PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER!

It was suggested that my problem with a standard Adaptec 3940UW, was a =
driver issue and I quote SuperMicro:

"As, I mentioned on last answer. A lot of Hardware manufacture use it. =
There is no such problem at all. But I got a lot of call, most of their =
problem came from the IRQ sharing. The software driver cannot share IRQ =
resource."

This can hardly be true??


I seem to be just going around in circles. I have given them the Adaptec =
chip sets three times (7880) and yet they say they need to know what the =
chip set is??? I'm confused!!

Can anyone give me a decisive answer as to what might be wrong with the =
SuperMicro Board (9 PCI slots, i960 controller...)?

i've noticed this wierd problem
since 1.5 RELEASE's ...

in a users ".profile" :

export VARIABLE=value

never works. only :

VARIABLE=value; export VARIABLE

works.  even :

export VARIABLE1=value1
VARIABLE=value2; export VARIABLE2

causes neither variable to be set.
is this a bug, or is there a logical
explanation?

I'm still getting to grips with this stuff, so please correct me if I've
got it wrong.

Care to elaborate?  What sort of security measure does this prevent or
weaken?


I imagine a setup where firewall has route entries directing the real IPs
of the servers to their addresses in the private address space, and those
machines have the real IPs mapped onto their loopback interface.

So long as the firewall has rules to prevent spoofed packets appearing to
come from the private address space, and otherwise blocks all but the
necessary traffic, it seems this should work.


Earlier discussion of splitting the class C network of real IPs seemed
wasteful.  Even if all the machines behind the firewall were to have real
IPs, why waste half of them on the connection from the outside router to
the firewall.  Those interfaces could use private IPs even if nothing else
did.

Hello.  I've read and been impressed by your FreeBSD propaganda and have
converted to your platform from Slackware Linux.
	During the migration, I backed up all my serious data to QIC-80
tapes using tar.  Now when I try to retrieve the data, the ft filter
says that I've inserted the wrong volume and won't accept the
volume name of the Linux-generated tape.  How do I get around this?  The
data was a backup of an old operating system for my pdp11 and I can't
replace it, so it's critical.

thanks in advance

Jacob Ritorto

Hello people,
Probably I miss something really stupid, anyway, here's my story, my box
is freebsd 2.2.7, now abit of expirement:

cat /etc/passwd | grep  user1
user1 ---> uid 1001, gid 1001, the same in master.passwd
cat /etc/passwd | grep user2
user2 ---> uid 1000, gid 1000;  the same also in etc/master.passwd

I remmeber I had to edit their ID/GID by hand.
pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd

now check /etc/group file:

user1:*:1001
user2:*:1000

now I login as user1:
touch foo; ls -al foo
foo is owned by user1, but group is user2 why??!
more intersting is that user2 get the same thing but : user2 bin. Any
ideas what may cause this? any files I have missed? I more linux user,
where passwd things are abit different, so I probably may have missed
something really familiar.

nuqneH,

..from my paper on NAT in firewall environment (yet unfinished):

[skip]

Static Bidirectional NAT (one-to-one)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

NATed internal IP address is bidirectionally mapped to external one,
passing all incoming and outgoing connections to/from internal machine -
it appears as virtual host in external network.

Connectivity viewpoint: Execllent. Every protocol will work except
ones that do send IP addresses in data stream.

Security viewpoint: Really Bad Thing, inacceptible in most cases.
Creating a bidirectional virtual channel to inside host is equal to
placing it as another dual-homed gateway being protected with packet
filtering only (most NAT boxes can do packet filtering as well). 
This will probably break any reasonable network security policy.

Dynamic Bidirectional NAT (many-to-many)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The same thing as described above, but external IP addresses are assigned
dynamically from address pool on the NAT box. Assigned address (NAT rule)
is created on connection request (outgoing packet to an external address)
and exists until the rule expires (due to inactivity or another reason)

Connectivity viewpoint: The same as above, except you can't place a public
server inside because NATed host has no fixed external IP address.

Security viewpoint: Much worse than most people think and even worse than
static NAT, because possible compromise affects not a single machine,
but a whole network that is NAT-allowed. It is common misconception that
hackers will not find NATed machines because addresses are hidden. They
will scan NAT pool and do that fast enough. After machine is compromised
it is easy to keep NAT rule active thus keeping the host exposed or to
spoof packets to cause other hosts to appear on the external side.

Dynamic "Unidirectional" NAT (many-to-one), possibly with port remapping
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

a.k.a. IP Masquerading. The word "unidirectional" is kept in quotes
because it does not (usually) mean that data stream is unidirectional;
that just means connection requests (except some special cases) are
passed one direction (inside to outside only) due to different nature
of the NAT rule, which includes not only real and mapped source 
(internal) IP, but also original and mapped port numbers and destination
IP and port number. Packets that do not match the rule are rejected.

Connectivity viewpoint: only protocols that use single client-to-server
connection should work. Most NAT implementations include some workarounds 
to bypass this limitation (which does not allow, say, active ftp to work) , 
usually based on some application level knowledge achieved by packet 
contents inspection.  There are some additional security issues with that 
technique (not to be discussed here).

Security viewpoint: not as good as it seems to be. If a host on the
protected network is compromised, it is relatively easy to expose it
to further attacks. Some techniques are shown below.

1) Attacks using inside-originated connection. 
The most obvious example of a protocol that gives full control to 
_server_ it connects to is X-Windows system. Speaking X11, the "server"
is a computer with display attached and "client" is any program that 
interacts with it using X protocol.
That means that all connections are client-originated (TCP sessions to
port 6000+display #) and will go out via NAT perfectly.

A real-life attack could look like this:

 A victim host behind NATing firewall is being exploited (does not
matter how does that happen: actively - say, attacking irc client
(remember that BitchX dgets() vulnerabilities), mail program or something
else - or passively (creating website with malicious page). An xterm
session is started from there to attacker's display - and - full shell
access is gained.

2) Attacks intended to create specific NAT rules.

 An attacker sends connection requests from desired IP addresses (after
compromising at least one internal machine) from service port to be exploited
to an attacker host. Then properly crafted backwards connection (with source
port that matches the rule which can be determined by analysing appeared packet
from the first step) will match the rule and can passed to the victim.
(Note: not all NAT implementations are vulnerable; it depends on how
connection setup is checked when creating the rules and what is allowed
in the estabilished connection packet stream)

1. PROBLEM
----------

I have been unable to get FreeBSD to recognize my
PS/2 mouse. On boot I get an error:-
   psm0 not found at 0x60
I've tried enabling on boot:-c, but the error persists.

Win95 and DOS recognizes the mouse (Genius Netmouse) at
IRQ 12. (BTW, How can I obtain the adrress that Win95
sees the mouse at - Control Panel doesn't say.) The
FreeBSD installation suggests IRQ12 and address 0x60,
but that's as far as I get.

I searched the questions archive and the closed I came
to finding an answer is:-
   >> The psm0 device is broken.  If I remember
   >> correctly, you have to hack the psm device driver    >> so it does not check the i/o port address.  Check
   >> the questions archive for a definitive answer.
from D. White. (Feb 1996).

That unfortunately puts me even more in the dark. I need
help as I've been searching for two weeks now.

2. SUGGESTION
-------------

>From the mailing list archive, I notice a large number
of related questions. It is possible for someone (not me
as my online resources are limited) to compile and 
release a "trouble shooting guide" at the FreeBSD web
site.

An ideal first candidate will be PS/2 mouse problems :)

Pradesh Chanderpaul

PS : I would appreciate being CC'ed to any reponses as I
am not a list subscriber.

Hi there,

I'm a second year computer science degree student here at Swansea
university, I have a copy of the FreeBSD OS but am concerned that it
doesn't support my SCSI card.
I'd be greatful if you could advise me if there is any chance that support
for the Advansys 930u PCI SCSI card will ever be given.
I have ran FreeBSD using the I.D.E. channels before but I have upgraded to
SCSI in persuit of better CD-R performance, ufortunately I can no longer
install FreeBSD.
I'd be greatful for your assistance.

Many thanks


Jezz Palmer

3.0 is scheduled to be released on or about October 15th.
2.2.8-final is scheduled to be released on or about November 15th.

Cost on CD's should be the same.  $39.95 for the full release.  $24.95 if you
subscribe.  The intent, as I understand it, is to have the same 4 CDs.

"Our recommendation is to obtain and use registered IP addresses if at
all possible.  If you must use private IP addresses, then use the ones
specified by RFC1597, but beware that you're setting youself up for

	Hello, I have sendmail 8.9.1a and when I'm trying to send a

BS. He needs to specify device first. I.G. mount /dev/XXX /mnt
 and speaking of floppy, also specify type of filesystem : -t msdos

 when you specify directory or file instead of device, you'd get such
error.

Hello,

Have-you erased your Linux disk ? if not, you can mount an ext2fs
partition in the FreeBSD tree (man mount_ext2fs(8) - mount a ext2fs file
system)
You can also tar to a file which could be on an M$-FAT partition.

	TfH

 Jacob -

	Did you do this with tar cvfM  and have multiple volumes?

	If so, the problem you're reporting is caused by a bug in GNU tar.
	I've had it myself several times.  It seems to happen when a large
	file (larger than the block size) crosses a tape boundary.

	Don't despair though - all of your data is there.  GNU tar has
	simply written too much on the second tape.

	The solution I use is to simply dd the tape images.  Then with
	appropriate dd's, you can "chop off" the extra parts.

	Another approach I've taken is to use pdtar (available in the usenet
	archives) which ignores GNU's multivolume stuff.   Then, you 
	can get the file which cross the boundary and put it back together
	appropriately (again, taking the "extra" stuff off of the front of
	the second half.)

please bare with me, if possible.
i have spent 6 hours verifying this problem,
and have tried to be as brief and straighforward
as i can be.

PROBLEM:

i need lynx to use my clients httpd server
when i'm not connected to my "aliasingateway".

i need lynx to be able to use my aliasingateway's
httpd server to serve it's web pages also, when
i'm connected to it.  it uses squid ...

i have lynx using the :

http_proxy:http://192.168.0.13:3128/
------------------------------------
directive. with :

#no_proxy

all lynx "localhost" requests on the client
get web pages off the aliasingateway, as
might be expected.  all lynx "192.168.0.13"
(aliasingateway) requests end in squid
"connection failed, no route to host"
errors.  all lynx "123.123.123.123"
(aliasingateway REAL IP) requests
seem to work as expected, fetching
pages from the aliasingateway's
filesystem.  this is no good
because the localhost requests
don't get the HTML pages off
the clients filesystem.
----------------------------
with :

no_proxy:localhost,127.0.0.1

all lynx "locahost" requests on the client
get web pages off the clients httpd server, as
would be expected.  but all "192.168.0.13"
requests fail with a squid error "connection
failed, no route to host" ...  i don't
know if this is normal or not.  all
"123.123.123.123" (aliasingateway's
REAL IP) requests get pages off
the aliasingateway, BUT only
*** if they are FULLY specified! ***

BUG ???

ie, if i want an "index.html" pages from
a directory, but only specify "123.123.123.123/dir",
the page comes from my CLIENTS filesystem!

ie, but if i specify "123.123.123.123/dir/index.html",
the pages comes off the ALIASINGATEWAY's filesystem!
this is what made it hard for me to initially debug
this problem since my filesystems were basically
mirrors of each other.
--------------------------------------------------------
with :

no_proxy:localhost,127.0.0.1,aliasingateway,192.168.0.13

all lynx "locahost" requests on the client
get web pages off the clients httpd server, as
would be expected.  all "192.168.0.13" (aliasingateway)
and all "123.123.123.123" (aliasingateway's REAL IP)

or  if i specify "123.123.123.123/dir/index.html",
the pages comes off the ALIASINGATEWAY's filesystem!
-----------------------------------------------------------
with :

no_proxy:localhost,127.0.0.1,aliasingateway,123.123.123.123

the results are the same as above ...
-----------------------------------------------------------

i hope this isn't too confusing.

Check http://www.webnology.com/list-archives/dhcp/

You'll find searchable archives of the ISC dhcp-server, dhcp-client, and
dhcp-announce mailing lists, as well as links to a FAQ. You might want to
consider subscribing to the lists themselves, at:

Ok, I have outgrown Windows 95 in many ways now and I need FreeBSD. I have
2 hard drives with 3 partitions:
1. C (1.6g)
2. D and E (4g total)

Windows is on C.
I read the installation procedure and I think i can do this:

Shut Down to MS-DOS mode in Win95
Start the installation as described on freebsd.org


BUT: Does FreeBSD really read my DOS partitions so I don't have to have to
reformat ANYTHING? even my D/E drive?
And if it can, does it handicap FreeBSD in any way? Does it have native
support for the DOS partitions or will I be slowed down?
back to the installation:

When i get FreeBSD running or even before i start installing it, i could
rename or remove my Win95 directory thus being able to configure FreeBSD to
boot on my system...

Later I'd like to stick Windows on the D/E drive or something so itd only
boot when I want it to. And if FreeBSD DOESNT reformat anything and keeps
the partition windows should still be able to access my C drive and FreeBSD
my D/E drives, right?

Thanks,

Bart "The Good Guy" Trzynadlowski

That's fine and well, but how old is that book? RFC 1597 was
obsoleted by RFC 1918 in February, 1996. What rationale do the
authors employ for suggesting that registered IP addresses behind the
firewall will be "setting yourself up for later problem[s]?"

make sure your modem is configured correctly,

mmmm

	i think all depend in the firewall rules, i will only permit the
pass of the DNS, HTTP and e-mail (no telnet, x11, etc), HTTP (80 only for
show the pages of my web server)

	all other packets will be denied.

	dos this cause a security problem? (may be only the http).

Saludos
Alejandro

Thanks for your response.

I typed dmesg | grep sio and got the following:

sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa
sio0: type 16550A
sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa
sio1: type 16550A

Does this mean it is setup or not ?
If not what do I need to do next ?

Please do not think I am being lazy. I genuinely cannot find any more info
on this.

Thanks again for your help.

Gary

There is not a difference really. I believe the two files are discussed in
'man X'.

When you start your X session you will have a line in the .xsession (or
equivalent) that says "xrdb -merge .Xresources". This could just as easily
say "xrdb -merge .Xdefaults".

There is a notable exception. Rxvt (terminal emulator if you didnt know)  
doesn't read X resources in the same way that most other X apps do. Rxvt
requires it's settings to be maintained in the .X defaults file. Rxvt
reads this file directly instead of querying the resource database.

(assuming 'touch foo' is creating 'foo'; i.e. it doesn't already exist...)

Check the group ownership of the directories in which you are creating 'foo'.

>From 'man open':

     When a new file is created it is given the group of the directory which
     contains it.

This suprised me too - not the way I was used to (from System V).

[Note: I was concerned about this, but have checked and...]
 - You can NOT 'chgrp' a directory to a group of which you are NOT a member.
 - You can NOT 'chmod g+s' a file that is owned by a group of which you are NOT a member.

Hope this helps.

As many of you may have noticed, I have been having problems with a DPT raid
controller and I am wanting to try a suggested fix...

the fix suggested by Chris Johnson
was to make all my partitions 1 gig or less, then tar up the /usr partition,
copy it over to my var partition, delete the usr partition and then set it
up
with the full size with the remaining unallocated space on the drive... I'm
just not sure how to proceed here and what tools I need to use

Are there any guides / FAQS / howtos for such things?

Any advice would be definately appreciated.

Check the permissions and group settings on the directory itself.  If the
directory's group is owned by user2 then the file will be owned by user2.

well guys this is how things are going with this DPT situation:  This has
happened twice now btw...

I will create the partitions and install freebsd, and can do warm reboots to
my hearts content... but if I do a COLD boot after the machine is off a
while, the silly  thing hangs on the filesystem checks @ the beginning...

so whats up with these darn DPT controllers? or have I just screwed
something up somewhere along the way?

I am trying to download an installable image of FreeBSD using the link
"daily snapshot server", which has an underlying URL to
host "current.FreeBSD.org".  I am getting the following error message,
"unable to set guest priviledges".  Is this a problem with the
FTP server or am I looking in the wrong place for the distribution.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Lance Wood.

When I try to print out man pages, I get lots of junk, mainly ^H characters.
How can I print out man pages which will be legible?
Have postcript printer and I'am using a2ps to convert Ascii to PS.
Thanks,

Alain

Is there a sort of minimum SCSI support that must be in the kernel?  The
machine this is running on has no SCSI devices whatsoever.

when I do the make world on a 2.2 stable FreeBSD system, I have the
following error.
Can you help me?


===> usr.sbin/ppp
install -c -s -o root -g network -m 4554 ppp /usr/sbin
*** Error code 67

Stop.
*** Error code 1

It looks to me that it's trying to install a newly compiled version of
ppp in /usr/sbin.  This would happen during make installworld, rather
than make buildworld.  make installworld should be done in single user
mode to prevent files not being replaced because they're in use...
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I will be in California next week, and I would like to purchase one of
those FreeBSD "plushie" stuffed daemons.  Do you know where I can
purchase one for a friend of mine who is a FreeBSD fanatic? 

Thanks,

Hi everybody who understand and love FreeBSD.  Here is my current problem.
I'm currently running
FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE on a production evarioment.  I'm Having some problems
to do backups. here is the descirption of the problems. the way were doing
backups is by using the following  Script

mt -f /dev/rst0 rewind
/sbin/dump -0uBbf 4194304 32 /dev/nrst0 /
/sbin/dump -0uBbf 4194304 32 /dev/nrst0 /home
/sbin/dump -0uBbf 4194304 32 /dev/nrst0 /usr
/sbin/dump -0uBbf 4194304 32 /dev/nrst0 /usr2
mt -f /dev/rst0 rewind

as you can see I have 4 diffrent partitions or filesystems, here is the log
of the DUMP process. IT shows no errors. and It also says it was done
completly.

Now when I go in the tape drive on an interacive mode doing the following
command
# /sbin/restore -if /dev/rst0

once i get in I do the following...
restore > ls
.:
COPYRIGHT        home/            popper.core      trafshow.tar.gz
OK               kernel           proc/            usr/
bin/             kernel.GENERIC   root/            usr2/
dev/             kernel.old       sbin/            var/
etc/             lkm/             stand/
file.list        lost+found/      sys@
ftpd.core        mnt/             tmp/

Everthing until here looks ok,


but when got to de following directories
restore > cd home
restore > ls
./home:		(This directory, or filesystem, or partition is empty)

restore > cd usr
restore > ls
./usr:    		(This directory, or filesystem, or partition is empty)

restore > cd usr2
restore > ls
./usr2:   		(This directory, or filesystem, or partition is also empty)

It seems that i'm only doing 25% of the total backup.

Could Somebody give me a tip to correct this problem I'm very concern i my
HDD crashes I'll have to look for another job.

Hello,

Just one question : is your modem of the "Winmodem"  species ? 
If yes, you've got no chance to get ut running under anything except
Win$-9[5-8]

The dmesg excerpts that follow only tell us there iare 2 serial ports
(but not if these are the ones on your motherboard or not)

Finally, send to the list the full output of dmesg.

My copy isn't at hand, but I believe that one such potential problem is
a side-effect of corporate mergers and acquisitions -- Yet Another
annoying thing to consider (along with the myriads of other issues) is
overlap among RFC 1918 address ranges....

Ensuring that all networks are registered avoids that particular issue.

Also, I've heard that there's a new edition in the works....

  I can't start the XFree86 graphical setup during the FreeBSD
installation.  I managed to get this to work a few months ago when I first
set this machine up, so its not a hardware problem (I was just wiping &
reloading the drive as for maintenance reasons)

  My card uses the ATI Mach64 chipset, which I've selected properly from
the list of X servers.  If I switch over to the console when I try and run
the graphical setup, I ee about six of the following error messages:

X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61

     FreeBSD can mount, read and write Dos Partition....
     BUT it cannot be booted from a DOS partition. This would be a bad idea 
     anyway, as FATFS has no file ownership or permissions. It's also slow 
     and wasteful of diskspace.
     
     DOS Will only boot from controller 0, drive 0, partition 1 (drive C:) 
     so it shouldn't be moved. Drive 1 (D: and E:) should be repartitioned 
     for BSD with a single partition using the entire drive, and then the 
     regular slice arrangement. 4G is a lot of disk space for a FreeBSD 
     desktop machine, unless you have some pretty heavy-duty applications 
     on it (database, multi-media, CD writing, major programming projects, 
     web/ftp server, etc.) Since Windows apps bloat so badly, you may want 
     to leave the E: partition where it is and just recreate the extended 
     partition as a FreeBSD partition.
     
     The process is very easy when using sysinstall. Easier by a long shot 
     than fdisk.
     
     One way to squeeze a little more performance from the machine would be 
     to use FIPS or Partition Magic to free up about 256M of Drive 0 (C:) 
     to use for the root and swap partitions as so:
     
     Drive 0
         Slice 1 Windows C: (1.3 G)
         Slice 2 FreeBSD 
               root      (128M)
               swap      (128M)
     
     Drive 1
         Slice 1 Windows D: (2G)
         Part 2 FreeBSD
               var       (128M)
               home      (512M)
               usr       (1G)
               usr/X11R6 (remainder)
     Note: I am making some assumptions here about your machine and the 
     amount of swap needed, the types of applications you want to install, 
     etc. Your Milage May Vary

Ok, I have outgrown Windows 95 in many ways now and I need FreeBSD. I have 
2 hard drives with 3 partitions:
1. C (1.6g)
2. D and E (4g total)
     
Windows is on C.
I read the installation procedure and I think i can do this:
     
Shut Down to MS-DOS mode in Win95
Start the installation as described on freebsd.org
     
     
BUT: Does FreeBSD really read my DOS partitions so I don't have to have to 
reformat ANYTHING? even my D/E drive?
And if it can, does it handicap FreeBSD in any way? Does it have native 
support for the DOS partitions or will I be slowed down?
back to the installation:
     
When i get FreeBSD running or even before i start installing it, i could 
rename or remove my Win95 directory thus being able to configure FreeBSD to 
boot on my system...
     
Later I'd like to stick Windows on the D/E drive or something so itd only 
boot when I want it to. And if FreeBSD DOESNT reformat anything and keeps 
the partition windows should still be able to access my C drive and FreeBSD 
my D/E drives, right?
     
Thanks,

	There are version of OpenBSD and NetBSD for the Sparc stations, 
you'll have to check if they'll run on your paticular machine. FreeBSD 
does not, so far it's only for PC and Alpha.

Well, not a few.  But I do have one running with two networks
managed by dhcp and a third connected to the world.

The sample dhcpd.conf that comes with ISC DHCP contains all
the clues you need.

A little while ago, the drive containing the swap partition of one of my
servers failed.  I have not yet had a chance to replace it with a new
drive, so set up a swap file on another drive using vnconfig, etc.  On my
servers, I have been using MFS to improve performance -- I would like to
continue using MFS for a variety of reasons, not least the
self-cleaning-at-boot aspect.  However, MFS appears to require that you
pass a device for it to back to as an argument -- I was under the
impression that it just used swap space, and the argument was really for
show? :)  Here is a command line -- I'd love advice on either fixing my
command line, or fixing mfs to not require a partition:

# mount -t mfs -o rw,-s=131072 mfs /tmp
mfs: /dev/mfs: No such file or directory

Attempting to provide the vn device fails due to:

# mount -t mfs -o rw,-s=131072 /dev/vn0b /tmp
mfs: ioctl (GDINFO): Inappropriate ioctl for device
mfs: /dev/vn0b: can't read disk label; disk type must be specified

More or less true.  To put this another way, make sure the sendmail binary

Why did you caomment out all the scsi devices except od0?  comment that
one out as well and your compile should work.

I'm doing a lot of importing at the moment on a vendor branch for Amanda,
that we run locally (I know there's a port... :) )

A few versions ago I manually patched some of the files, thus moving their
versions onto the HEAD branch (1.x etc.).

Some of those patches have made it a more recent version of the code and
have been imported onto the vendor branch.  Unfortunately because the HEAD
isn't on the vendor branch for those files I have to manually adjust for
conflicts, etc.  What I'd really like to do now is make the vendor branch,
for those files, the HEAD so that the merges happen properly.

Does anyone have any tips?

Reread it.  It appears to me that they said you'll have problems later
if you use non-registered addresses.

Ummm....  As long as the generated PostScript is properly interpreted by
your printer, I think the results from:

	man -t [topic in question] | lpr

look a lot nicer.  (This is assuming that you have groff & friends
installed, of course.)

(Reason for the caveat up there about the "generated PostScript" is that
it seems that while some (most?) man pages print OK, the man page for
(e.g.) "ps" doesn't get handled properly on the network-connected LaserJet
I normally use here.  ghostview displays it OK, but even if I manually
generate the PostScript (by invoking groff directly) & play some games to
force it to deal with maximal braindamage, the printer just pretends
nothing happened.  Same thing happened with some of the amanda man pages,
so I ended up building amanda at home & generating the man pages there --
that was a SPARC/Solaris 2.6 box.)

No, it doesn't.  The point of a publicly accessible server is that it
can be accessed from the internet.  Static mapping allows you to make
a machine on the private network visible to the internet.  If you
then add appropriate filter rules, then you restrict access to only
those ports that you want people to get at (25, 80, 110, etc.).
The non-public machines (i.e. peoples personal machines) are not
statically mapped and therefore not visible to the internet.  However,
these machines can initiate connections out to the internet.  Also,
you would set up filter rules to restrict traffic to and from these
machines.

The tape doesn't work this way. You put 4 files on the tape using
dump. If you want to restore from the file that contains /home you'll
want to do:

mt -f /dev/nrst0 fsf 1
restore -if /dev/rst0

Read the man page for mt.

It's ironic that I didn't think of this, particularly since I had to
readdress a customer using RFC 1918 addresses with different RFC 1918
addresses after, you guessed it, a merger last year :P Thanks.

Depends on how much of FreeBSD you're goinf to download.  I use a USR
56K (now it's a V90) and I have unlimited Internet access (no per hour
charges), so I download everything including X11, in something like
12-16 hours (I go to sleep, so I don't know exactly).  But you could
download a minimal install and get FreeBSD running, and then download
more, in pieces.

If your Internet access is one of the 30hrs/month included and anything
past that is some price per minute or hour, then it would be well worth
buying the CDROMS.  You can also get just the 1st CD from cheapbytes
really, really cheap, and then download other stuff, like ports, as
need arises.

Hope This Helps...

  Hello.

  Does anybody know if FreeBSD supports any HDSL card ? I'd like to replace
our external router to a FreeBSD box, but the problem is that we use a 128
Kpbs HDSL line.

  Also, we have some clients that wish to install FreeBSD on a 155 Mbits
ATM network. Does it support any ATM card ? 

  Please send a copy of the answers directly to me, I'm not on the list.

  Thanks in advance.

I think they're referring to the trouble of changing IP address from
private to registered, at a later date, when you want the machine to
appear on the Internet.

Hello BSDaemons!

> connection by anonymous FTP

Rough Estimate:
  33.6 kBits/sec = about 3.36 k Bytes/second
  Round to 2 kBytes/second
  Equal to 1 MByte / 512 seconds
  Round to 600 seconds / MByte = 10 minutes/MB

According to "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey, back cover:
Requires 60 MB disk space for binary-only version,
        340 MB disk space for development version.

Subtract 16 MB of that for "swapper" partition + some "free space"

You must download about 44 MB for binary only system. (my guess)

 44 MBytes X 10 minutes / MB = 440 minutes
Round to 480 minutes = 8 hours for the 'binary-only' version.

  Note: all this rounding is justified because FTP does not transfer
at 100% available bandwidth because of protocol handshaking.

  You may also want X-Windows and some ports, which is
more code and will take a longer time.

  I have seen long FTP transfers "die out" even on a dedicated line,
and there is also the possibility of your modem dropping the connection
to your ISP. I don't bet optimistically on lengthy FTP transfers
(hours and hours of transfers).

  My thoughts: Buy the CD-ROM. Your time is worth more than $39.95 for
(8) hours. Also by the book "The Complete FreeBSD" which will save
you many many hours of struggle.
  I have 4 or 5 Linux books. The reason I use FreeBSD is because
Lehey's FreeBSD book was better than the many Linux books, so it
helped me to get started in a better fashion.
  Both are available from http://www.cdrom.com and also from some
local bookstores.

What is the default max. sockets per process (if there is a limit)?  What
file would I look in to find it (already tried syslimits.h, limits.h,
etc)?  Is it related to max file descriptors?

Thanks,
Eric

Install the lsof port, and type

lsof -i :amanda

as root.  It'll tell you what process that is listening to/using that port.

22MB for 2.2.7, 30MB for 3.0B.

Takes me about three hours to get the minimal install of 2.2.7, averaging
about 2.3kps with 31.6 connect.

Be happy...

Hello!

I'm interesting subject, because I want to have a copy of installation of
FreeBSD on CD but don't know how to do it.
What must I do with pacckages, wich can not be written on one CD?
And what about folder packages/All/ and links in other packages/
directories?
What must I to do so that I can install my copy of FreeBSD from CD?

P.S. I can not buy CD's with FreeBSD because I live in Ukraine and it's cost
too much for me:-(
        I'm a novice in FreeBSD and if You can please tell me where can I
download any books about FreeBSD for free.

Please answer, it's very imortant for me. Sorry for bad English.

Thank You for Your answer and interesting of my problem!

With kind regards from Sergey Andreyev

The least you could do is look at ps and see which process is taking the
memory (or use top, or whatever). Otherwise you never know what it is.
Also: used swapspace doesn't mean trouble. It could be pages that were
swapped out but never returned to real memory because there was no need
for it.

Misconfigured DNS such that a reverse DNS doesn't work?  Is there anything
I can put onto my system to prevent connections from such?  I really
really don't like not being able to backtrace someone if I have to :(

     Hello !

    I am running FreeBSD 2.2-971218-SNAP. I have installed a hard disk (rather
old Conner - 212M) and experienced problems. FreeBSD cannot properly detect it.
Take a look here:

    BIOS detects the disk and it works just fine with ms-dos. Your suggestions?
(Upgrading to higher version of FreeBSD is impossible yet).

Yes, completely; in fact I made it 'dangerously dedicated' in my BSD zeal.
I have to get the tapes to work somehow.  The other data that was less
voluminous but more frequently accessed was handled via the 'tar to dos
partition' strategy you mention.

Trying to set up modem to dial out and in.
It recognized the modem, when I connect directly to the modem, I can dial
out without a problem.
cu -l cuaa1 -s 19200, then dialing using AT commands

whenever I try to use a phone#, it returns cu: No matching ports

command I give
cu phone# -p /dev/cuaa1(or cuaa1) -s 19200

Why is it not recognizing the port?
Any idea's,

Alain

OK -

 In the gettimeofday() call; it returns a structure that has two
values.  First, the number of seconds since 1970.  The second field
is the number of microseconds.

 Certainly, the number of microseconds since 1970 is larger than
an int...  so; I take it this is the number of microseconds for
the current day... is that right?

Yikes, I remember that problem when I tried to span a few floppies with
Linux a few years back (I'd mentally accused Linux of being too rouge
because of that sort of quirkyness and that's part of the reason I
converted to FreeBSD, actually.  Now I hear it's GNU's fault!).  So I have
that to look forward to in addition.  Yes, I did use the capital M to
write a multi-tape tar.  Two forty-meg QICs, actually.

here's a script of what's going on.  I have a few ^Hs in there, but I
think you'll get the idea of what's happening.  Can't access the raw
devices and ft won't talk to the tape unless it has a certain header.

thanks again..

 I don't know much about the floppy tape's though; or the suspicious
"Linux raw format v2" - (is that the label you put on the tapes?)

 But - you should be able to access the raw device... are you root?

Final solve to my Adaptec 2940UW "waiting for scsi to settle"

Problem: Operating System would return "waiting for scsi to settle"
on booting of the following OS's:

Operating Systems affected: FreeBSD 2.2.5 2.2.6 2.2.7 
and Slackware Linux 3.5

Problem solving:
1. Tried the 2940UW on a FIC PA-2007 motherboard that has Award
BIOS release 4.51PG version 1.09CD12.  The FIC PA-2007 uses
the VIA chipset.
1.a. The problem went away upon booting FreeBSD 2.2.7

[side note, I also tried the card in a Dell OptiPlex Gxi and it
worked fine---that lead me to believe there was a problem
with my FIC PA-2011 motherboard's BIOS...or possibly
the chipset]

2.  Upgraded my FIC PA-2011 motherboard's BIOS from AMI
version 626C13 to Award release 4.51PG 1.13CA14.
2.a. The problem went away upon booting FreeBSD 2.2.7

Solve:
Switch this motherboard from AMI BIOS to the current 
AWARD BIOS and the problem with the 2940UW 
waiting for scsi to settle appears to be corrected.

I hope this information helps BSDaemons out there attempting
to install and utilize the Adaptec 2940UW product.

It should also help any users of Linux, too.

Check the archives from last year around this.  If you enable "Plug
and Play SCAM" in the BIOS, this seems to fix the problem, or at least
it did for me back when I was using those old cards...

$ man col

The -b option may help.

It happens when reverse DNS returns a hostname for which a forward DNS
lookup fails.

Happened to me last week at a customer site where their ISP had misspelt
the hostname in a PTR record for one of the customers' IP addresses.

TCP Wrappers "unknown" or "paranoid" host specification should catch
these, but it won't do you much good for something like sshd, which runs
standlaone.

No; it's the number of microseconds since the first field changed.

It's the number of microseconds for the current second.

IIRC, teh old conners were virtually impossible to mate with anything other than
a conner drive. This is because conner implemented drive detection incorrectly 
in the drive firmware. Later Western Digital and Maxtor developed a workaround, 
but it drove lots of us crazy in the early nineties.
It may work to make the Conner drive the master and the Fujitsu the slave. On 
the other hand, it may be impossible to use these two drives together

     Hello !
     
    I am running FreeBSD 2.2-971218-SNAP. I have installed a hard disk (rather
old Conner - 212M) and experienced problems. FreeBSD cannot properly detect it. 
Take a look here:

    BIOS detects the disk and it works just fine with ms-dos. Your suggestions?
(Upgrading to higher version of FreeBSD is impossible yet).

microseconds into the current seconds..

it's the digits to the right of the decimal point.
if they are > 1000000 it just means that the carry hasn't occured yet.
(in some systems and situations this is possible, (but unusual))

hello,

I know support for the 1542 card has been mentioned before many times in
-hackers, -questions, and -current. I have searched the archives looking
for a concrete answer as to whether the 1542 was going to be supported
under the CAM stuff in 3.0--and I couldn't find it.

So--will the 1542 be supported when 3.0 hits? I ask because just for fun
I downloaded the floppy for the latest "beta" snapshot and tried booting
my machine with it (I'm not ready to upgrade to 3.0 yet as I need to 
backup my stuff on CD or tape 1st...). Everything went smooth but the
probes did not pickup my 1542 and thus my SCSI drive and CDROM were not
picked up as well.

Just wondering if something is "wrong" with the out-of-the-box beta code
or if the 1542 didn't make it to the officially supported list under
3.0. Can someone please comment?

Thanks,

-Jr

floppy+CD+-C, cd, and 3.0, disable several not used devices) and never 
pass this last phase:

(CD is changing for drive a:)
changing root device to fd0s4c
rootfs is 1440 Kbyte compiled in MFS

(floppy+CD+boot -C)
cd
[...]

it means you have a standard
com1 and com2 serial device.
i don't know if you configured
your modem for com1 or com2,
so i can't say if it has
been detected.  if it is external,
then it will work by plugging into
you serial ports.  if it is internal,
you should disable any on-board com
ports in your bios that may conflict
with your modem setting.  it's good
to know a little about hardware when
messing around with UNIX.

since i'm not familiar with how squid will
continue to use my resources as the cache
grows, i'm just trying to get a idea from
someone that uses squid with a 1 Gig cache
or so.  i know it's a VM hog, else they
wouldn't have a NOVM version ...

from what i've read, the VM squid
uses will continue to grow as the
cache increases in size, since it
keeps all it's references to the
cache data in memory ...

if 128M of data uses 20+ Megs of
VM, i may be in trouble by the time
the cache reaches 800M in size.

If you can download a CD then it is better to do the network installation.
You don't need a CD if you do a network installation.

The one on the install diskette works pretty well :)

I just built a system with 2x128M and 1 64M PC100 dimms and didn't
have to do anything special.

I've heard there's an early work called tosha.  What I'd really like to 
see is a port of Paranoia III 
(http://www.mit.edu/afs/sipb/user/xiphmont/cdparanoia).  It does a 
spectactular job of correcting for all kinds of problems.  One of 
these days, I'll get a chance to test it under the Linuxulator...

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================

Last update 23 February 1998

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  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.

I:    Introduction
II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:    How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

I: Introduction
===============

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the
questions (the "hackers").

       Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with break- ing
       into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
       activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out
       yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
       security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==============================================

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG.  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!
  
  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:
  
      unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey <grog@lemis.de>
  
  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:
  
  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS               User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where
      keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For
      example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
      grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to
      grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from
      the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
      which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
      FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
      which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're
      not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
      messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
      clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things
out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
=========================================

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really
clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help
for 99% of all questions, however:

     If the question is of a general nature, ask
     FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling
     FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility.

     If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure,
     or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to
     FreeBSD-questions.

     If the question relates to a bug, and you're sure that it's a bug
     (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it
     happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to
     FreeBSD-hackers.

     If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can
     make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.

There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for
example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet
Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this
doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to
FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest
to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that
way.

IV:  How to submit a question
=============================

When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the
following points:

  1.  Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD
      question. They do it of their own free will.  You can influence
      this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated
      question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You
      can influence this free will negatively by submitting an
      incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible
      to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer
      even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not
      get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll
      look at how to get the most out of your question to
      FreeBSD-questions.

  2.  Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message:
      they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests
      them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a
      subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you
      provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading
      it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can
      answer it may not read it.

  3.  Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T
      SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak
      English as their first language, and we try to make allowances
      for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message
      written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly
      formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured
      mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly
      formatted messages without you finding out about them:

      Eudora 
      exmh 
      Microsoft Exchange 
      Microsoft Internet Mail 
      Microsoft Outlook 
      Netscape 

      As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent
      offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must
      use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set
      up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers
      which don't get on very well with MIME.

      For further information on this subject, check
      http://www.lemis.com/email.html.

  4.  Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may
      seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but
      many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred
      messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by
      subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the
      first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to
      look.

  5.  Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly,
      a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's
      more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the
      questions to read the message.

  6.  Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult
      area, and we need to expand on what information you need to
      submit, but here's a start:

         If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error
         messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No
         route to host'''.

         If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say
         (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free
         vnode isn't'''.

         If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us
         what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know
         the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your
         machine.

         If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the
         configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of
         authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic
         IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file?

  7.  If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there
     could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so
     complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does
     know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after,
     say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't
     get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not
     going to get one from this forum.  Resending the same message
     again and again will only make you unpopular.

To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following
question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of
these two questions you would be more prepared to answer:


Message 1:
Subject: (none)

I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message 2:
Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD

I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm
having a lot of difficulty installing it.  I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16
MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball
disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive.  The installation works just
fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing
Operating System".

----------------------------------------------------------------------


V: How to answer a question
===========================

Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider:

1.  A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to
    answering questions.  Read them.

2.  Has somebody already answered the question?  The easiest way to
    check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then
    (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all
    together.

    If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean
    that you shouldn't send another answer.  But it makes sense to
    read all the other answers first.

3.  Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been
    said?  In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much,
    although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a
    problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or
    whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software.  If
    you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further
    relevant information.

4.  Are you sure your answer is correct?  If not, wait a day or so.
    If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply
    and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since
    nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI
    CD-ROM with a frog?".

5.  Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds
    of CCs.  Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply
    to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions.

6.  Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique
    to identify which text came from the original message, and which
    text you add.  I personally find that prepending "> " to the
    original message works best.  Leaving white space after the ">"
    and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both
    make the result more readable.

    Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a
    text such as "Re: ".  If your mailer doesn't do it automatically,
    you should do it manually.

    If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too
    long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it.  In the case
    of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the
    subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was:
    HELP!!??)".  That way other people trying to follow the thread
    will have less difficulty following it.

    In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you
    did it, but try not to be rude.  If you find you can't answer
    without being rude, don't answer.

    If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format,
    just reply to the submitter, not to the list.  You can just send
    him this message in reply, if you like.

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a
web page or any other online documentation.  The result is that most
leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are
printed.  Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut
Creek, is no exception.  Since going to press, a number of anomalies
have surfaced.  

The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.
They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996.  If you
have this book, please check this list.  If you have the second
edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get
the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.  

I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy
a later edition, they will be in it as well.  If you find a bug or a
suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org).

  --- Changes: 5 December 1996 ---

Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment.
Replace with:

   If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel
   source has not been installed.  To install from the CD-ROM, perform the
   following steps:
   
   # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys
   # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys
   # cd /
   # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf -
   
   The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly
   necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may
   end up with two different copies of the sources.



  --- Changes: 28 November 1996 ---

Page 135, second paragraph:  replace with

   In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't
   already exist.  By default, the system contains four virtual
   terminal devices in the /dev directory.  If you use more than this
   number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162),
   or with mknod (see page 573).  When calculating how many devices
   you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal
   device without a getty for the X server.  For example, if you have
   enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want
   to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0
   through /dev/ttyv6).  With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual
   terminals you need:

   # cd /dev
   # ./MAKEDEV vty7		make 7 vtys

   Alternatively, you can do this with mknod:

   # cd /dev
   # ls -l ttyv0
   crw-------  1 root  wheel   12,   0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0
   # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3
   # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4
   # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5
   # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6

   In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to
   check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the
   12, in this example; it may change from one release to another).
   You need to specify this number to mknod.  For more details about
   major and minor device numbers, see page 160.

  --- Changes: 20 November 1996 ---

Figure 10-4, page 172:  The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called
/dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h
as shown.

Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still*
called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through
/dev/sd1s1h as shown.  (Well, at least the average turned out right :-)

The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of
the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start
with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with
lower-case letters.  Sorry about that.  If you're looking for a man
page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on
page vi.

The man pages are really just excerpts.  The total FreeBSD man pages
format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this
book.

    --- Changes: 1 November 1996 ---

Major changes:

1.  No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives.

    When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a
    separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM
    drives.  This is no longer the case.  The following modifications
    to the text come as a result:

    Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and
    inst_ide.bat.  FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies
    and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives.

    Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk
    (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp).  If you are creating the boot floppy
    with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the
    floppy."  The resultant text reads:

        IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives,
	are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same
	controller as your IDE hard disk.  Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5
	support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test.  In order to
	install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as
	slave device.  The installation may or may not work--please
	let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some
	indication about the cause of the trouble.  You can also
	create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program
	(see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38).

    Page 35:  Remove the points referring to atapi.flp.  The text for
    the third box from the bottom of the page should read:

         If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot
	 floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette.
	 Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to
	 diskette.  Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39.
	 If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section
	 on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts,
	 page 29.

    Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI.  The
    resultant text should read:

         Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail
	 with the message not enough memory.  The boot will progress
	 in the same way as if you had booted from floppy.  The
	 advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more
	 documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the
	 system.

	 INSTALL doesn't always work.  It depends on what drivers or
	 TSRs are in your system.  There's no reason to try changing
	 your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot
	 easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further
	 information).

2.  Changes to section on installing a second disk.

    Page 170:  The bottom paragraph should read:

	 When the message Three seconds until format
	 begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting
	 CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears.  After that,
	 you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by
	 themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format
	 the disk.  Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk
	 activity lamp will also not light up, and since the
	 scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU
	 time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is
	 going on.  The disk format can take a long time--depending on
	 the disk, up to 90 minutes.

    Page 173, after table 10-5:  Add the text

         If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different
         idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did.  Possibly
         you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or
         maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker.  In
         all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the
         incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a
         valid partition table.  For example, this happened with a
         disk formatted for BSD/OS:

         # scsiformat sd1

                 end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0
         The data for partition 3 is:
         <UNUSED>

         Looking at the output from dmesg, we see:

         (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2
         sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors)
         sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track

         In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760
         cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track.  What's less
         obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have
         an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615
         sectors.  Unfortunately, if you calculate the number
         according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll
         come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77
         = 2,032,800.  How come?  The disks report the total number of
         sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use
         them all.  The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you
         try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots
         of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the
         disk.

    Page 173, middle of page.  Change the text after the "no magic"
    message to:

         The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple
	 smoke.  It refers to the fact that it didn't find the
	 so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table.
	 Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't
	 surprising. It's also completely harmless.

    Page 173, last example.  Remove the first 22 lines, from

	 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 *******

    to, but not including the next occurrence of this line.

    Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet

	 * The total number of sectors in the partition.  Calculate
	   the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x
	   sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output
	   from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here.

    Page 178, middle of page: after

	 # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161

    insert

         When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity
	 display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''.  Since there
	 isn't any label, it can't be found.  This is another harmless
	 chicken and egg problem.

    Page 182:  In the section "Creating the file systems", add the
    first line to the example:

	 # newfs /dev/rsd1h

    Further down the page, the last example should also read

	 # newfs /dev/rsd1h

    Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition".
    Add the text:

         It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition
         on the first disk.  At the moment, it's not possible to
         install from extended partitions.

    Page 136, bottom:  Add the text

	 If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy
	 enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things
	 up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the
	 password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens).  If
	 you're running X, open another window and use su to become
	 root.  If you're running in character mode, select another
	 virtual terminal and log in as root there.  Only when you're
	 sure you can still access root should you log out.

    Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual".  Add:

	 Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to
	 build the cross-references.

    Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled.  It should
    read:

         ze0	214      IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller
	 zp0	214	 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III

    Page 205:  Change the section titled "lpt0" to:

	 lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could
	 conceivably have.  Most people don't have three printers: you
	 can comment out the definitions of the printers which you
	 don't have.

    Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec
    274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller"

Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these
bugs.

          Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition




                         Last revision: 12 August 1998

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   The  result  is  that  most  leading  edge
computer  books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut  Creek,  is  no  exception.   The
second  edition  has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and
changes have surfaced.

The following is a list of modifications which go beyond  simple  typos.   They
relate  to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997.  If you have this
book, please check this list.  If you have the first edition of 19  July  1996,
please  check  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1.  This  same file is also
available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/.

This list is available in four forms:

o A    PostScript    version,     suitable     for     printing     out,     at
  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps.  See  page 222 of the book to find
  out how to print out PostScript.   If  at  all  possible,  please  take  this
  document: it's closest to the original text.

  Be  careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to
  reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When
  viewed  with  more  or  less,  this  version  will show some highlighting and
  underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

o An ASCII-only version at  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii.  This
  version  is  posted  every  week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list.  Only
  take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be  sure
  that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html.

All  these  modifications  have  been applied to the ongoing source text of the

                                                                         Page 1

o In  a  number  of  places, I suggest the use of the following command to find
  process information:

  $ ps aux | grep foo

  Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the  terminal  emulator
  upon  which  it  is working.  This command usually works fine on a relatively
  wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it  may  truncate
  exactly  the  information  you're  looking for, so you end up with no output.
  You can fix that with the w option:

  $ ps waux | grep foo

  Thanks to Sue Blake <sue@welearn.com.au> for this information


Location of the sample files
____________________________

On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not  match  the
specifications  in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).  The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came
out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM
as  a  single  gzipped  tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.  It contains the
following files:

See page 209 for more information on using tar.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book.  I'll put up
some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future.

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.

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

Page 11: Reading the handbook
_____________________________

The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape.  Replace the last paragraph on the
page and the example on the following page with:

If  you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the
handbook.  Both of these programs are included on the  CD-ROM.   If  you  don't
have X running, use lynx.  To install them, enter:

$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz
or
$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz
or
$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz

The  numbers  after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book
has been printed.  Use ls to list the names if you can't find these  particular
versions.

Thanks  to Stuart Henderson <stuart@internationalschool.co.uk> 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.

                    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 <r-beer@onu.edu> 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.

In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164.  It should
be 165.  Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction  (sorry,  I  lost
your name).

Page 88: setting up for dumping
_______________________________

The  example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf.  This variable is no
longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev.

Page 92
_______

At the end of the section How to install a package add the text:

Alternatively, you  can  install  packages  from  the  /stand/sysinstall  Final
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.

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:

_______

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

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

________

Replace the complete text below the example with the following:

These values are defaults, and many  are  either  incorrect  for  FreeBSD  (for
example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue).
If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry  from
the  following  selection.   If  you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the
keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse  buttons  simultane-
ously  within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle
button press.

Section "Pointer"

    Protocol   "Microsoft"         for Microsoft protocol mice
    Protocol    "MouseMan"         for Logitech mice
    Protocol    "PS/2"             for a PS/2 mouse
    Protocol    "Busmouse"         for a bus mouse

    Device     "/dev/ttyd0"        for a mouse on the first serial port
    Device     "/dev/ttyd1"        for a mouse on the second serial port
    Device     "/dev/ttyd2"        for a mouse on the third serial port
    Device     "/dev/ttyd3"        for a mouse on the fourth serial port
    Device     "/dev/psm0"         for a PS/2 mouse
    Device     "/dev/mse0"         for a bus mouse

    Emulate3Buttons           only for a two-button mouse

EndSection

You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match  the  manufacturer's
name.   In  particular,  the  Logitech  protocol only applies to older Logitech

                                                                         Page 7

mice.  The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft  protocols.   Nearly
all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both.

If  you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver
is included in the kernel.  The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both  mice,
but the PS/2 driver is disabled.  Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it.

Page 140
________

Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph:

If  you  do  manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost.  Reboot the
machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter:

# mount -u /             mount root file system read/write
# passwd root            change the password for root
Enter new password:
Enter password again:
# ^D                enter ctrl-D to continue with startup

Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user  mode,  the
system doesn't have the concept of user IDs.

Page 148
________

Replace the text at the top of the page with:

Modern  shells  supply  command  line editing which resembles the editors vi or
Emacs.  In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering

Page 152
________

After figure 10-8, add the following text:

It  would  be  tedious  for  every  user  to  put  settings  in  their  private
initialization  files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file.  For
the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three
files:  /etc/csh.login  to  be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed
when a new shell is started  after  you  log  in,  and  /etc/csh.logout  to  be
executed  when  you  stop  a  shell.   The  start files are executed before the
corresponding individual files.

In  addition,  login  classes  (page  141)  offer  another  method  of  setting
environment variables at a global level.

Changing your shell
___________________

The  FreeBSD  installation  gives root a C shell, csh.  This is the traditional
Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line  editing  is
very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of
the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay
with  the  C  shell,  you  may  still need to understand the Bourne shell.  The
latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line  editing.
See page 148 for details of how to enable it.

You  can  get  better  command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection.
You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash,
also in the Ports Collection.

If  you  have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a
more general way: use chsh (Change Shell).  Simply run the program.  It  starts
your  favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable).  Here's
an example before:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /bin/csh
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location:
Office Phone:
Home Phone:

You can change anything after the colons.  For example, you might  change  this
to:

#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location: On the road
Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999
Home Phone:

chsh  checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and
exit the editor.  The next time you log in, you get the new shell.  chsh  tries
to  ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the
name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a  very

                                                                         Page 9






Install ports when installing the system


good  idea  to  check  the shell before logging out.  You can try this with su,
which you normally use to become super user:

bumble# su velte
Password:
su-2.00$                 note the new prompt

There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell:

o The shell for root must be on the root file system,  otherwise  it  will  not
  work  in single user mode.  Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell
  in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is  almost  never  on  the  root  file
  system.

o Most  shells  are  dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files
  such as /usr/lib/libc.a.  These files are not available in single user  mode,
  so  the shells won't work.  You can solve this problem by creating statically
  linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond
  the scope of this book.

If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps
to install it:

o Copy the shell to /bin, for example:

  # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin

o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells,  in this example the line  in  bold
  print:

  # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1).
  # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using
  # one of these shells.
  /bin/sh
  /bin/csh
  /bin/bash


You can then change the shell for root as described above.

Thanks  to  Lars Koller  <Lars.Koeller@Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for drawing this to my
attention.

When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and
in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file  system.
This  is the same effect we discussed on page 158.  As a result, if you want to
stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it.   You  do  this
with  the umount command.  Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name.

You need to do this even with read-only  media  such  as  CD-ROMs:  the  system
assumes  it  can  access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite
unhappy if it can't.  Where possible, it locks  removable  media  so  that  you
can't remove them from the device until you unmount them.

Using  umount  is  straightforward:  just  tell  it what to unmount, either the
device name or the directory name.  For  example,  to  unmount  the  CD-ROM  we
mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands:

# umount /dev/cd1a
# umount /cd1

Before  unmounting  a  file  system, umount checks that nobody is using it.  If
somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like  umount:
/cd1:  Device  busy.   This  message often occurs because you have changed your
directory to a directory on the file system you want to  remove.   For  example
(which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt):





                                                                        Page 11






Install ports when installing the system


=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1
umount: /cd1: Device busy
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 ->

Thanks to Ken Deboy <glockr@locked_and_loaded.reno.nv.us> for pointing out this
omission.

The text of the first full sentence reads:

The first name, up the the  symbol, is the label.

In fact, it should read:

The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label.

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.

Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section:

Starting the spooler
____________________

As  we  saw  above,  the  line  printer  daemon lpd is responsible for printing
spooled jobs.  If you're root, you can start it by name:




Page 12






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


# lpd

Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system
starts up.  You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf:

lpd_enable="YES"              # Run the line printer daemon

See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf.

Thanks  to  Tommy  G.  James  <tgj@worldnet.att.net>  for  bringing  this to my
attention.

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  <dunham@dunham.org>  for  drawing  this  one  to  my
attention.

________

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 <kaiserc@fltg.net> for drawing this to my attention.

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

________

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

In the list of disk driver flags, add:


Page 14






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


o Bit  12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode).  If this bit is
  not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode.

o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the  number  of
  heads  to  assume  (between 1 and 15).  The driver recalculates the number of
  cylinders to make up the total size of the disk.


Page 283, ``Creating the source tree''
______________________________________

Add a third point to what you need to know:

3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be  included  in  the
  checkout.   If  you  specify  this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates.
  This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug
  in  -CURRENT:  you  check  out  the  modules  as they were before the bug was
  introduced.  You specify the date with the -D  option,  for  example  -D  "10
  December 1997".


Page 285, after the second example.
___________________________________

Add the text:

If  you  need  to check out an older version, for example if there are problems
with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter:

# cvs co  -D "10 December 1997" src/sys

This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997.

Add the following section:

Problems executing Linux binaries
_________________________________

One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux  binaries  is
that  they  usually  contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries.
They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries.  That's  not  really  a

                                                                        Page 15






Starting the spooler


problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands
is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format  as  well,
and  of  course  that's  the default.  If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on
such a system, you must brand the executable using the program  brandelf.   For
example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter:

# brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3

Thanks to Dan Busarow <dan@dpcsys.com> for bringing this to my attention.

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 <mark@fang.cs.sunyit.edu> for this correction.

Page 368
________

Replace the paragraph after the second example with:

In  FreeBSD  version  3.0  and  later,  specify  the  options  PPP_BSDCOMP  and
PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression.  You'll also  need  to  specify
the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file.  These options are
not available in FreeBSD version 2.

Thanks to Brian Somers <brian@Awfulhak.org> for this information.

In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read:


Page 16






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


www       IN   CNAME          freebie
ftp       IN   CNAME          presto

In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name.

________

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 <c.raven@ukonline.co.uk> for  drawing  this  to  my
attention.

________

The  description  at  the  top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address
instead  of  Ethernet  address.   In  addition,  a  page  number  reference  is
incorrect.  Replace the paragraph with:

o Line  1  shows  an  ARP  request:  system  presto is looking for the Ethernet
  address of wait.  It would appear that  wait  is  currently  not  responding,
  since there is no reply.

o Line 2 is not an IP message at all.  tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and
  the beginning of the packet.  We don't consider this kind of request in  this

                                                                        Page 17

  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.

attention.

Add another bullet:

o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all  your
  mail  delivery  for  you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to
  this other host, which sendmail calls a smart  host.   This  is  particularly
  convenient if you send your mail with UUCP.

  To  tell  sendmail  to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find

Page 478, ``Running Apache''
____________________________

The text describes the location of the server  as  /usr/local/www/server/httpd.
This  appears to depend on where you get the port from.  Some people report the
file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though  note  the
directory  sbin,  not  bin).   Check  both  locations  if you run into trouble.

Replace the last paragraph on the page with:

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%.

Hello.

No one sent a reply to this message, so I'm bringing it up again.  What
I'm asking can't be that difficult -- I'm just new to FreeBSD.

I'd like to get FreeBSD Release-2.2.7 installed on a server that has an
AdvanSys ABP-940U PCI host adapter.

Unfortunately, the AdvanSys is supported only through the CAM package.

How do I get FreeBSD onto this computer?

I have a machine with a Symbios (ncr) '875 chipset that I could install to
first and then patch with the CAM package.  Is there some way to use the
computer with the Symbios card to build installation disks or something
similar so that I could install to the machine with the AdvanSys? 

So, FreeBSD gurus, How do I get FreeBSD onto my AdvanSys-based server?

Thanks.

Subject: ppp core dump (bus error)

This has been a interesting problem. I have two machines one is 
Intel 133 and the other is Intel 166MMX

I tried this on both machines and I get a core dump (bus error)

My configuration are:

fbsd 2.2.6 32mg  166MMX 
fbsd 2.2.6 32mg  133    the both have the same motherboard/bios


ppp.conf

default:
 set log Phase Chat Connect Carrier LCP IPCP CCP tun command
 set device /dev/cuaa0
 set speed 115200
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT  OK-AT-OK  
ATE1Q0 OK \\ dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

isp:
 set phone 883-0030
 set login ""
 set authname *****
 set authkey  *****
 set ifaddr 209.161.16.162/0 209.161.16.136/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0

now I have tailed the ppp.log file to watch what is doing throughout the 
connection. I do get alot of hdlc errors 

the problem seems to start happening when I run Netscape 4.05
and try to connect to a web site. It has a hard time looking up the dns 
entries which sometimes does not even get. (DNS lookup failure)

And if it does finally resolve the name it loads the page then stalls
and then ppp core dumps. This happens on both machines.

what would this be associated with?

do I need to look for newer ppp code.
could it be a i386 general protection fault.

You need to supply a little more information.  What is the IP address
of your internal NIC?  Is it on a different network (IP wise) than
your internet connected NIC?  What is the w95's default gateway set
to?

Sign up with FreeBSD-advocacy.  They discussed it in some detail.

	Are you running ppp with the -alias option?

You install CAM.

I'd suggest using the NCR host adaptor on the server, or the server
disk on the machine with the NCR host adaptor, and install like that.
Then build a CAM kernel and move back to the original server hardware.

	DON'T use 'cat' to view a file, ever. Use 'more,' or better yet, use
something that has built in safety checks like 'less.' This was
discussed recently on one of the lists, check the archives if you want
all the details. There is no reason at all to use more than one program
in a situation like this where grep will do all the work for you, and a
lot of reasons NOT to do that. For this situation the proper syntax is:

grep user1 /etc/passwd 

> I remmeber I had to edit their ID/GID by hand.

	You would probably be better off to change /etc/group so that the gid's
match the uid's before you add too many users to the system. 

Good luck,

Doug

There's a few more things to do.  You need some kind of routing or 
aliasing.  Perhaps natd is what you need.  Are you using DHCP or PPP on 
your FreeBSD box?

Have a hunt around my website below.  I've documented the steps and 
failures I did to do what you're doing.  I used DHCP and natd.

hope this helps.

You do realize that freebsd-questions is not a lynx support list,
right? We have no responsibility for lynx, we just have it available for
installation. Your best bet would be to ask your questions on a list
that is specifically for lynx.

Good luck,

Doug

I have a FreeBSD 2.2.6 Release box setup as a dual-hommed gateway to provide
a small Novell 3.12 Network with 12 users connected to the internet via a
cable modem.  The users are all running Windoze 95 and/or Windoze 98.  The
error logs on the freebsd box show the following error messages periodically
throughout the day:

	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: bad crc
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: alignment error
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: bad crc
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: alignment error
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: alignment error
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: bad crc
	de0: receive: 00:40:33:25:b1:12: alignment error

The gateway in all ways seems to be stable, and has been up and running for
about 3 months with now problems, but these messages just seemed to have
started about 4 days ago.

Any suggestions as to what may be causing these error messages, and what
needs to be done to correct these messages.

Thanks in advance,

Charles

I'm looking at a CRD-5500 SCSI to SCSI RAID controller.  One of 
its features is that you can connect up to four computers to the 
controller and allow them to share access to the same files.

What are the OS implications (for FreeBSD in particular) of such a 
setup?  Naturally, you'd want to mount the volume read-only on all 
but one of the systems.  But how would it affect the OS to have it 
mounted on multiple machines simultaneously?

Thanks,
Dave

Is there some way that the system can be configured to put the IP address
there instead of the (useless) text "invalid hostname"?

yep.. there's another weird thing which happens:
before user user1 logs in, I do
chown -R user1.user1 /home/user1
when user1 logs in, permittions are changed to user1.user2. 
I checked sources for login and getty, all chown calls they do, are for
ttys. what does it then? (checked also profiles, bash_login, and bashrc
file.. nothing).

oops.. so the problem is what does change g-owner for homedir  then.

Linux is probbably closer to sys-v here also. (what I used to work with)


thanks for hints.

control characters, right. :) ok. cat /etc/passwd | grep user1 | less :-)

 I checked this out also. it's also correct. ig. user1 has gid 1001, and
user2 -- 1000.( I guess I pointed it out in my original message).

 The weird thing now, is that homedir group owner gets changed to user2
(for user1) when he logs in.. what may cause it?

 Depends on what type of device you have, as far as I know.  For SCSI
CD-ROMs, you'll probably want tosha.  For ATAPI, take a gander at DAEX.
We're currently in the process of testing what will be version 1.0 (CDDB
querying, full disc extraction, etc), which should be available soon.
The 0.4a version is still available, though... take a look at:

Hi,

     My system doesn't have the directory usr/src/sys.  I have checked
the FREEBSD handbook
and this is what I was told.

     Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system, then
the kernel source has not been installed.  Follow the instructions for
installing packages to add this package to your system.

     The instructions were very clear however what is "this
package"?????

Thanks for your attention
Jonathan

Hello,
 I found out the cause of such a mess.. thanks.. the user1 had several
hidden directories in his home, which * didn't catch (should've used
.[a-z]* or something instead) which still had old permittions.. it
happened so, I did all the checks for him in that dir, while did checks
for user user2 in /tmp/ dir). I am a Linux freak originally, and there
euid (or uid if the same) and egin (and gid if the same) are used to give
ownership, and this was the cause, why I didn't figure out the cause of
the problem. Things are funny tho.. why would one want to do things this
way? security issues? 
 Thanks everyone who gave me hints..

 Best Regards
 Fyodor

No.  That's why I suggested the alternative.  Building a boot floppy
is currently still a black art.  You might like to check out
http://www.freebsd.org/~abial/cam-boot/, however; I know there used to
be boot floppy images available there, but I don't know if that's
still the case.

right off the FreeBSD home page (click Vendors):

"If you are a company that supports a FreeBSD compatible
product and wish to be added to this page, please send
email to www@FreeBSD.org and let us know!"

how could you be interested and not even check
the FreeBSD homepage ???

HDLC is the lowest level protocol for carrying PPP

have a bad connection.  and it must be really bad,

you should check the mail archives first, especially
with an easy keyword like "905B" ...

it believe they are not supported.
i've seen a plethera of emails regarding
this in the past few days.  there's something
peculiar about the "B"'s ...

due to the nature of the problem, and my
limited knowledge, i can't say if the
problem relates to "ppp", "lynx", "squid",
"named", or some odd combination
in relation to FreeBSD.  i also
can't say if it is in relation
to the port of lynx, which may
be FreeBSD specific.  can you?

i don't have a Linux machine
and can't say if the same occurs
on another platform.  thanks
for your help.

just "rmuser" both users.
then use "adduser" to add them again.
it gives you a default group the same
as the owner.  i never have had these
problems.  i'm not expert enough to
tell you what causes your problem,
but i can say that a fresh install,
followed by "adduser" should fix
it.  (the MicroShaft way ;)

adduser is in perl, and you may
want to read it to see what's
actually involved.  also, see
/etc/group in addition to
vipw.

this Q has been asked and answered many times.
search for "sys" AND "kernel" in the mail
archives.  always check there first if
you have some good keywords (not always
practical - but most of the time it is ;)

www.freebsd.org (click on search)

i listed out everything you need
to build a kernel.  search on
"ssys" ...

Hello,

I currently have IP aliasing going with ppp -alias so my internal network
can talk to the Internet. Sometimes when I am online, I get incoming HTTP
requestes. I just upgraded my alias server, but I would like to keep the
web server on the old box. here is what I got setup:


              
                    |------------|
Internet ---PPP-----|PPP aliasing|
                    |----------- |
                         |  Ethernet (192.168.1.11)
                         |   
                         | 192.168.1.9
                    |------------|
                    | WWW Server |
                    |------------|

So, how do I get the Internet to talk to 192.168.1.9 via 192.168.1.11?
I am thinking ipfw, but not sure wha t options to through in to the
command.

Thanks,
-Mike

These seem to be 3.0 boot floppies, and specifically warn against use as
2.2.x installation floppies.

I have two accounts, 'root' and 'abcdef', abcdef is a member of wheel.
When I login on either acount trough a text erminal, both have
/usr/local/bin in their path.  But, if I login through xdm, the xterm
session on 'abcdef' as /usr/local/bin in the path, but 'root' does not.
The acounts have the exact same home directory contents, and same
shell(tcsh).  The /etc/csh.* files do not set any paths.

Adding an echo to each startup script(.login .profile .cshrc .shrc)
notifies me that both acounts using xterm only run .cshrc.

Adding the path to root's .cshrc will make things work, but why are the
paths different for users that appear to be identical?

Mike

OK.  Look into ip aliasing.  It'll be in the mailing list archives.  Go to 
the freebsd website and search.  use the second search box down.  I'm sure 
you'll find details.

cheers.

Hi there
	I'm a newcomer to FreeBSD and having got my system up & running I'm trying
to setup a PCI modem correctly. I was unable to run things like tip and ppp
and have stepped back to the HW initialisation. I hope someone can help me
see what to look at next!...

The modem is a pretty cheap PCI modem using the Lucent (LT) chipset. It
seems to announce itself (under Windows) as an 'LT Winmodem', but does not
seem to be a 'Win Modem'. That is, under Windoze I can talk to it as COM3:
using standard terminal programs and standard serial drivers. So I'm pretty
sure it can somehow be used under FreeBSD.

The settings I get from Windows for the modem are the following:

- (COM3)
- IRQ	11
- Memory Range 0xE1000000-0xE10000ff
- I/O range 0x6100-61ff
- I/O range 0x6200-62ff

And when I recompiled the (2.2.7) kernel (thanks Raggy!) I use a config
file entry like this:

device sio2 at isa? port 0x6100 tty irq 11 vector siointr 


At boot time, I get the following information about the PCI cards installed
in my system from the BIOS:

(All Bus 0)
Device#	Func#	VendorID	DeviceID	DeviceClass			IRQ
7		1	8086		7010		IDE controller		14
9		0	11c1		0440		Simple COMMS controller	11
10		0	1002		4354		Display Controller		NA
11		0	1000		0001		Unknown PCI device		10
12		0	10ec		8029		Network Controller		10

So far, so good (The 'Unknown PCI device' is my SymBios SCSI card).

However, when I boot FreeBSD in verbose mode (and compiled with PCI_QUIET
and PCI_BRIDGE_DEBUG set so as to give the most information possible) I get
something like the following:

config header: 0x044011c1 0x02970007 0x07800001 0x00000000
pci0:9:	vendor=0x11c1, device=0x0440, class=comms, subclass=0x80 int a irq
11 [no driver assigned]
	map(10):	mem32(e1000000)
	map(14):	io(6100)
	map(18):	io(6200)

and later:

sio2: configured irq not in bitmap of probed irqs 0
sio2: irq maps: 0x1 0x1 0x1 0x1
sio2 at 0x6100-0x6107 irq 11 on isa
sio2: type 16550A

It seems that the information '[no driver assigned]' and 'sio2: configured
irq not in bitmap of probed irqs 0' are telling me something, but I'm not
sure what. All the information obtained from the PCI card seems OK, and I
even get the SIO probed and recognised. But in PCI.C, the function
'not_supported()' is being called, and that starts to make me suspicious
;-) ...

I notice that the boot process finds and assigns my ethernet card
successfully, even though, like my modem card, it's a PCI card with an
'isa' entry in the config file.

I also notice that the defined classes within PCI.C etc. seem to peter out
at around class 0x06, and that 'comms' is class 0x07. However the function
'not_supported()' at least seems to understand subclass 07.

I guess that something about the pci details read from the card makes the
system think that it has no driver to support it, but I'm not sure how to
confirm or change this. I'm starting to struggle - any suggestions as to
what I do next?

	Thanks very much
	jon Nicoll

Hello,
 I am wondering if anyone faced the problem of incompatible terminals in
FreeBSD and other Unices. (even BSD clones, such as BSDi). Many Unices
lack such terminals in its termcap bases as cons25. so far the most
compatible terminal i found, is pc3. (sometimes It keeps things even
better than vt100)

 I wonder If there's possibility to share terms between those boxes. (say
if I have root on both). I tried just to extract term setting from
my linux console with infocmp and move to FreeBSD, but FreeBSD doesn't
quite understand sytaxis which is used by Linux... almost the same story
is with BSDi.. anyone could give hints how usually terminals are
transfered from one system to another, and, maybe, if there's a
possibility to automate this process... (say with script and scp or
whatever)..

 best regards
 Fyodor

I have a questions regarding user PPP.

A coule of days ago I started tonotice my connection with my dial-in
server freezing after about 10 minutes or so os heavy usage.

I first noticed this on when I was dialing up with my FreeBSD box to
connect to it.

Today, I was using a windows routing program to test some things out, and
sure enough, 10 minutes into the connection I started to see FCS error
messages.

My question isL
What is an FCS errr, what causes it and how can it be fixed?

I do have timeout set to 0 on the server.

Thanks
-Stacy

not true:-)). see http://www.kalug.lug.net/linux-admin-FAQ/
 We have mentioned that it's possible now to run it under Linux, but
win*crap* is VERY resources-hungry, since they use lots of machine CPU for
its own stuff.. so I woundn't advice to buy it anyway.

	Yes, the problem is not FreeBSD specific. You need to ask your question
on a list dedicated to lynx. You need to STOP asking your questions on
lists dedicated to FreeBSD. Is that clear enough?
 
Once again,

Good luck

why run it under windoze?  exit windoze to DOS
and then try your modem with a terminal program.
Winmodem (lite?) sure sounds like a Winmodem to me :)
you'll usually know by looking at it.  if it is small
and square, it's BS.  if it's rectangular, it's probably
ok ...

i don't think i'd want a modem on IRQ 11.
that's BS.  that means everything below 11
will have higher priority.  (maybe things
have changed in the last few years ? ;)

that's how you config a NON-PNP device ...
and all PC's i've ever used have port addresses
0x0000 - 0x03ff (but i don't know about all the
latest wiz-bang stuff ;)

FCS = frame check sequence.

it's used by HDLC (the layer below PPP), nothing
more than a form of checksum.  if it is bad, it means
your frames of data are corrupt.  usually a result of
line noise, overruns, etc.

it can be fixed by making good physical connections
and by using quality hardware, with sizable buffering.

true vt100 needs to be compile into your kernel,
from what i've heard.  ???  there is a driver
for it.  see LINT.  also try vt220 or xterm.

don't be afraid to adjust those termcap files.
i had a problem with DOS, since i use DOS ComIt
to login to FBSD when in DOS.  it only has a 24
line viewing area.  so i tweaked the cons25 and
created a cons24 ;)  works great with color lynx.
i'd like to see a standard entry for it.
remember to compile the termcap after changes.
it's really very easy to modify that stuff.

man 5 termcap

sorry, i can't help with linux or BSDi.

I don't know.  I *think* this means what was offered wasn't what was 
wanted.  More than that I don't know.  Try searching the mailing list 
archives.  How to find that is on my website too.  Look for "Where to get

I think you need to look at my website again.  Look for "29 July 
resolv.conf is being modified, and not by me".  It's misnamed, but I'll 
change that.

:-), "if something doesn't work, quit and enter again". :) remains me some
old joke.:) Yep. I was close to this step, just wanted to "check one thing
more". The thing which led me away from the source of the problem, is that
in BSD world ownership of parent directory are given to created
files/directories, while with Linux/SVR4(so I was told) euid/egid or
uid/gid pairs are used. And that's where I was looking for the thing to
fix.

definitely.

 yes. I checked adduser source, and that's why I was so surprised, because I
didn't find anything there, but updating pwd.db with -p key, after it
creates user in master.passwd and group files.

 again, thanks to everyone who helped. I guess this tinny think should be
mentioned somewhere in FAQ, since I found this thing pretty confusing for
BSD newcomers:)

you will need to specify xterm -ls, so xterm will know that shell, which
is started, is loginshell, (ig. it will pass the the argv[0], with the
first character -- dash, so shell will process .profile, .bash_login or
whatever). read man xterm for more.

is it vt0 thing, you mean? Once I compiled my kernel with this device.
(so far I know vt0 and sc0  don't go well together, so you may have only
one, or another, right?), and when I booted, the only TERM I could have,
was vt00 :-)). I prefer cons25 here:-)

vt200 sc0 driver is what I currently use. xterm. mm... should be something
interesting :-).

 well, starting with one, I guess I will be able to tweak others as well.
BSDi is pathetically lame here. (and not only..:-)) so it could be a kind
of problem.

Grovelling for help again. Have fitted a SCSI adaptor onto the computer
for a tape backup. The BIOS detects the SCSI adaptor and also the tape
drive attached to it.

When I try to test it out by typing tar -cv I get the error: tar: can't
open /dev/rst0: Device not configured.

If I type tar -cvf /dev/nrst0 I get the same message for nrst0. The
question is how do I configure the device ?

I typed in dmesg and neither rst0 or nrst0 was listed. My kernel has
device st0 listed under the heading scbus0.

I'm probably missing something fundamental here. Any ideas would be
appreciated.

Thanks

Yes if your running ppp
you'll need to start ppp with a comand similar to ppp -alias -auto
myispsname

Check out http://www.FreeBsd.org/search
I believe this is the url the search page.
try searching mailing list for ppp -alias

I'm sure you'll find links or examples of how to set things up.

Hope this helps.
:-)

OK.  Look into ip aliasing.  It'll be in the mailing list archives.  Go to
the freebsd website and search.  use the second search box down.  I'm sure
you'll find details.

cheers.

Hello everyone,

 I have a question on change freebsd boxes.

 
 How can a move a directory (/home) or a group of directory(mail space
directory), file structure from one freebsd box to a second box that are
on the same network keeping the same file structure and owership as well
as privilige and verify if the file structure is the same on both.

Please send command-line that can accomplish this process more
efficiently.


Thanks for you advise.

Armando

can anyone help me get an eisa bus ethernet card configured, I am 
building a compaq proliant 4000, all eisa bus with an SMC 8010 and I 
am having problems. eisa config sees it, at boot bsd sees it as 
eisa0:5 smc8010 <unknown device>. all docs say that this should be 
ed0 or ed1 but at boot ed0 reports no device at 0x280 and ed1 reports 
no device at 0x300, I have set the int to 5 on the card which seems 
like the only supported int, 280 and 300 can't be configured, these 
are isa device addresses and the iomem is set at d8000 per docs

hep me, hep me

Why bother, when `col -b' does that for you?

Hello!

I have a problem with FreeBSD 2.2.6 -  the system don't want to see sio ports,
although hardware is configured properly in BIOS. It says:

sio0 not found at 0x3f8
sio1 not found at 0x2f8

Can you help me to solve this problem?

My hardware:

CPU: Intel Pentium-133
Mainboard: Iwill P55XB2 (Intel TX chipset)
           Two onboard COM-ports configured as:
           * COM1: 0x3f8/IRQ4
           * COM2: 0x2f8/IRQ3
Video: ATI XPERT@WORK (I have tried to use another card and it takes no
effect)

	Sorry, didn't make my position clear.  I did not do that because
I am not a "vendor that supports a FreeBSD compatible product".  I do
not work for Hewlett-Packard nor do I use their Firehunter product as I
am not an ISP.  I did not want to be confused as an any kind of official
representative for Hewlett-Packard.  But maybe I'm splitting hairs.
	What I wanted to find out was if someone directly associated
with the FreeBSD project (for instance the maintainer of the vendor
pages) wanted to contact HP for a statement themselves.  Support from
Hewlett-Packard, a major commercial vendor, seemed like a big deal and
it seemed appropriate that such a query come from someone with
'@freebsd.org' in their email address.
	But, on the other hand I can put a paragraph or so together from
the info on HP's web pages for Firehunter, if that the way it should be
done.  I just want to make sure the Hewlett-Packard's name gets on the
vendors page really.

i have no idea whats working and whats not, network isn't it up,
i was told i could install fbsd via the other computer :))
anyways when i load up in visual config i do, the ed0 stuff
then when i tried installed over the network it said
ed0 : device timeout
then i went into the visual config and added the flags 0x20
that seemed to fix that problem, but now its saying
ed0 : NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 4864 
till it shuts down the ed0

To add to what Fyodor wrote.
Some shells (i.e. Bash) have a dot file which is read when your shell is
"interactive, but not a login shell".

If you want the same behavior for both, login shells and not, you could
link the dot file used for one to the other.

Example:
In Bash the ~/.profile is used, among other possible files, for login
shells.
~/.bashrc is used for non login shells.

You could "ln -s .profile .bashrc" so you get the same paths/environment
from xterm and regular sessions.

	I posted earlier,  I am in need of the vfs.h header file for
FreeBSD 2.2.6.  I searched the web and found a few, but they weren't the
right ones.  Anyone have this file on their system they could mail me?
I'm trying to compile Afterstep and it's not compiling because it needs
this header file.

thanks,

Scott Neibarger

Hi

Before getting a copy of FreeBSD, just a couple
of questions I need to know, hope you don't
mind,

1. The Free C/C++ GNU compilers ok, but what
about Java support ?
2. Is there a CORBA "sub-system" for Free BSD
(to be programmed via Java) ?

Thank you.
Regards

If you are connecting to your ISP via PPP you need to add -alias
to your ppp startup command.  If you have an ethernet connection
you need to run natd on the outside interface.

Please, if you don't know the answer for sure, then please, please,
please don't waste Internet bandwidth with your response.

A better answer would have been to visit the web site and find the URL
and send it....

Hi,

I am having trouble convincing my client-side 'pppd' to talk to the
server connection:

Oct  3 13:41:18 vger pppd[293]: Serial connection established.
Oct  3 13:41:19 vger pppd[293]: Using interface ppp0
Oct  3 13:41:19 vger pppd[293]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cuaa1
Oct  3 13:41:49 vger pppd[293]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests

I've tried variations of compression and a few other pppd options
(including 'passive') that look somewhat related but have not been
able to get the two sides to negotiate the connection.

OS   : FreeBSD 3.0-980929-SNAP
pppd : pppd version 2.3 patch level 5

My associated kernel configs are:
device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" flags 0x20000 tty irq 3 vector siointr
pseudo-device   bpfilter        4       #Berkeley packet filter
pseudo-device   ppp     2               #Point-to-point protocol
options PPP_BSDCOMP                     #PPP BSD-compress support
options PPP_DEFLATE                     #PPP zlib/deflate/gzip support
options PPP_FILTER                      #enable bpf filtering (needs bpfilter)

I have a nearly identical pppd config running on a NetBSD SPARC 5
machine that works good.  That machine uses pppd version 2.3 patch
level 1.

Any ideas as to what I'm missing for it under FreeBSD?

Thanks,
-Brian

Additionally anything that is Pure Java (tm) should
work too provided it doesn't rely on features in a
version of Java greater than 1.1.6.

# 2. Is there a CORBA "sub-system" for Free BSD

Of these ORBacus has pretty good support for Java.

Dear Sir:

I am a novice who is trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 release on my PC.
I've installed
MS Windows98 in one FAT32 partition. Following is a list of my
hardwares:

CPU                     Pentium II-400 MHz
RAM                    128 MB
Mainboard            ASUS PII-B
Harddisk:              IBM IDE 7200 rpm 10.1 GB
SCSI controller:    Adaptec AHA-2940 UW PCI
Display Card:        Matrox Millennium G200 AGP
Sound Card:         Creative Ensoniq Audio PCI
CDROM:              TEAC 32X SCSI
Network Card:       DLink DFE-530TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter

Questions:
1. I am just wondering if these configurations supported by FreeBSD. If
not, what am I
    gonna do to install FreeBSD properly and correctly?

2. When I first tried to install FreeBSD, after detecting hardware
configurations, the
    installation program showed that "Syscon" and "PS/2 Mouse" ports
conflict to
    each other. What to do to get rid of this confliction? (I don't want
to oprate X
    windows without a mouse.)

3. In my IBM 10.1 GB harddisk, I fdisked two partitions, each takes 50%
of the
    harddisk space. The "C:" partition already has Win98 installed, and
I want to have
    FreeBSD installed in the "D:" partition. However, when it came to
the stage to create
    a FreeBSD slice, I found the maximum storage space all FreeBSD
slices take up is
    only a little more than 3 GB! This means I have to lose another 2 GB
unused! What
    happened?

I would really appreciate if you could kindly help me to sort out all
these problems. I
really want to try FreeBSD. Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Daniel

You probably just need to bump maxusers in your kernel config.  What
does a pstat -T print?  If the current number of files is near the max,
you can adjust it on the fly by running "sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=####". 
If you don't want to rebuild your kernel, you can stick the sysctl in
rc.local so it runs every time the system is rebooted.

I am new to FreeBSD (not new to unix) and I just installed FreeBSD on one
of my machines, I have an Intel Etherexpress 10 pro PCI in my computer and
I can't seem to get it to work with FreeBSD.  I built the custom kernel
with it in there (ex0) and it still doesn't work.  It does detect it
though in the pci0 detection, but at the end it says [no driver assigned].
Is there a module for this ethernet card or something I am doing wrong?
Thanx.

infocmp is a terminfo utliity; FreeBSD doesn't use terminfo, it uses
termcap.

All you should have to do is copy the appropriate entries from the
Linux /etc/termcap file and put them in /usr/share/misc/termcap on your
FreeBSD box.  I've done this to "normalize" the termcap entries on
SunOs, FreeBSD, Linux, OSF/1 and SCO, and haven't had a problem yet.

You're saying that you cd'd into /usr/ports/x11-wm/afterstep, ran "make
install", and it gave you that error?  FreeBSD does not have (and never
has had) a vfs.h, so if you tried to buld it yourself, you probably
configured it wrong.  The port takes care of that for you.

Wide and Narrow devices can share the same SCSI bus. This has been the
result of T10 standards being careful about compatibility issues.  But
from device (a controller is a device) point of view, a Wide device is
always connected to a Wide bus and a Narrow device is always connected to
a Narrow bus.  One of the tricks is that a Wide device can be driven using
only the Narrow subset of signals of a real (or imaginary) Wide bus.

My opinion is that connecting a Wide controller to a Wide device using a
Narrow SCSI connector is beyond SCSI specifications. The NVRAM when
present and read by the driver may help accomodate this configuration, but
with controllers that haven't NVRAM, we are stuck when it is not possible
to tell the driver about.

Using a working system to apply a work-around in order to be able to boot
a broken system is quite usual. ;-)
Modifying ncr.c, as I suggested, is just a hack for personnal convenience
that has the effect to definitely narrow all 53C8XX controllers at driver
level. It is not an acceptable fix at all.

If you want to be nice with such users, then you must use a default driver
setup that would neither negotiate Wide, nor accept Wide negotiation
until some user intervention. I am not sure such a proposal will be
accepted. 
A boot command option that would tell the driver that it must only drive
devices (or part of devices) in Narrow mode (until it is told different)
is probably the only acceptable solution. I donnot know if this is 
possible with FreeBSD.

   Gerard.

I'm hoping someone can help sort out a DNS problem I'm having.  I'm trying
to set my machine up as the primary DNS for integral.on.ca, but can't seem
to get it working.

Here is my named.biit file:

cache           .                       root.cache
primary         0.0.127.in-addr.arpa    pz/127.0.0
primary         integral.on.ca          pz/integral.on.ca

and the zone file for integral.on.ca:

@       IN      SOA     integral.on.ca root.integral.on.ca (
                199810031       ; Serial

        MX      10 integral.on.ca.

integral.on.ca  A       24.112.14.35
www             CNAME   integral.on.ca.
ftp             CNAME   integral.on.ca.

Does anyone see something I've missed?

Any help appreciated!

 Can someone tell me why as a non root user on my system when trying to
run tkfont it always comes back with this:

beef@beef:~$ tkfont
Error in startup script: couldn't create error file for command: no such
file or directory
    while executing
"exec xset fp rehash"
    (procedure "Rehash" line 8)
    invoked from within
"Rehash"
    (file "/usr/local/bin/tkfont" line 361)

I can only use it if I am root :-(

Thanks..
Lanny

The host corresponding to an NS record needs to have an A record

I don't know how ml.org sets up their DNS but named may not be happy
with their method.  Try using cr967899-a.lndn1.on.wave.home.com
instead of plato2.ml.org and see if that works.

What does named complain about in /var/log/messages?

I made the change you suggested, but to no avail.  Named starts without any
error messages, but when I do an nslookup on integral.on.ca I get the
following message:

*** No address (A) records available for integral.on.ca

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

I tried to send in a pr yesturday, but it has been rejected several times
because while I have a domain, I don't have an entry for the particular
machine that I sent the pr from.  So FreeBSD.orgs anti spam filters
reject the mail.

I have spent most of the last few hours trying to fix my sendmail
configuration so that the machine masquerades mail as if it comes from
the domain rather than the machine.  I think I got this set up
correctly, but my pr hasn't shown up so now I am wondering.

my question: how long does it usually take a pr to show up?
I have checked the web pages and can't find the one I sent.

Actually this drive has a SCA connector so that it can be connected either
to a Wide or Narrow bus.  In other words, the bus type depends on whether
I choose an 80to50 or 80to68 pin adapter.  Thus, it should be okay to use
either the Wide or Narrow bus.  But if the drive of course had a 68 pin
wide connector and I used a 68 to 50 pin adapter, I might reason that the
conversion may be causing the bus detection problem.  However, this is not
the case.

I guess the driver could be "smart" in that after making an assumption
that it has correctly identified a device on the "Wide" bus that it try at
least once to communicate with the drive.  If that attempt fails, the
driver should assume that the mode was incorrect and try the "Narrow" bus. 

Such a method would offer the best compatibility.  In other words, the
problem is that the driver "guesses" wrong and just goes on its merry way
without checking its guess.

Yes, agreed.  But those without a working system to do that will be out of
luck.

I think the easiest solution would be to assume Wide and try communicating
with the drive.  After assuming Wide, check the assumption -- if have
problems communicating with the drive, assume narrow.  If narrow fails,
report error.

This way, those users using a Wide bus won't be stuck with the Narrow bus
and those users using drives on the Narrow bus will have their drives
running in the proper bus mode -- in other words, everyone should be
happy.

  Hello,

I have installed 2.2.5 REALEASE in the past (but since lost the hard
drive). Given the convienience of the FTP install option of FreeBSD I
decided to load it again instead of some other un*x clone. The real
question is this, has the ftp system on the install disk for 2.2.7 been
used successfully? I can't seem to get it to work for me. Once I go back
to the main screen (alt+F1) and hit enter (after setting up the network
info) I instanly get an error trying to ftp, undefined error 0. I get
connected to the ISP ok but that is the end of my install :(
  Any ideas as to the problem?

  TIA,
Ray (aka Savant)

You could try the version on 

  http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html

There are instructions/suggestions in the FAQ at 

  http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html

explaining how to get a core dump (although your best bet is probably 
to use gdb on the -g version of ppp rather than trying to get a core) 
and what to do with it when you've got it.

Try the ``alias redirect_port'' command (see the man page).

Check out ``15.1.2. Building a ppp ready kernel'' in the handbook.

The RUNNING flag just indicates that the interface has been used 
before.  It doesn't prevent the device from being opened again.

The only thing that should prevent a tun device from being used is if 
another process has it open.  Try running ``fstat /dev/tunX'' to see 
what's upsetting things.

hey,
    i have a PBTV3 card which is NOT based on the bt chip, but i noticed
linux have support in develop under the title "ACCUVIEW" or "STV", but i
haven't seen anything in FreeBSD, i thought u guys r superior ! ;)
    so, just tell me, will i be able to use my card under FreeBSD in the
near future ? cuz i learned to like FreeBSD much more than linux, but if
i have no choice i'll just go to Linux...

Hi there,

Suse announced Office99 to be available round
October 12th or something. As I heard the new
Star Office 5 won't be usefull on BSd because of use
of kernel threads.. If Office99 from Suse will paly on BSD
(3.0 Release by then) I prefer to stock with it of course :-)

Any suggestions...
Btw.. OFfice99 includes the new Applix with MS Office97 filters.

 
Groetjes,

Arnout

I'm trying to write a simple program that uses divert sockets, and it
isn't going too well.

Basically, I can make my program reinject the packets back into the same
device as they were diverted from, and that works.  However, I'm trying to
divert the packets to a different device for various reasons.

My luck so far doing this has been zero.  I've got a subroutine that sets
up sockaddr_in for use, and works well enough that I can bind the local
end of a socket to a specific IP address and port, but when I use the same
routine in my divert code, using the same port number that I'm diverting,
and the IP address of the interface that I want to divert to, I get
EADDRNOTAVAIL.

I did a hexdump of my sockaddr_in and the sockaddr_in that recvfrom()
returned, and I noticed that the recvfrom() version had three additional
non-zero bytes after the IP address, and if I zero those out I get the
same behavior, even when I'm trying to use the same interface.  According
to /usr/include/netinet/in.h, those are the first three bytes of
sin_zero[8], so I don't know what they are.

So, I figured, let's take the recvfrom() version, and stuff the IP address
of the desired destination device (lo0 for testing) into that sockaddr_in.
Well, the packets don't get rejected, but they don't get processed by ipfw
as packets that came in "recv lo0."  These are the rules I'm using.

/sbin/ipfw add 64100 divert 7123 ip from any to any recv de0
/sbin/ipfw add 64200 deny log ip from any to any recv de0

where my program has opened a divert port on 7123, and does nothing but
try to reinject the packets to the loopback device (127.0.0.1).

So, by my understanding, which is wrong somewhere, this should work, as
the packet hits the divert rule, gets injected into the lo0 device, and so
shouldn't trigger the rule 64200.  They are triggering that rule, as the
logs show.

What am I missing? Either those three bytes actually control what
interface the packets are reinjected into, or ipfw is seeing the packets
as coming from the original interface.

At this point, I'm considering using tun devices instead of the loopback
device so that it works, but there's something that bothers me about
getting the packets through one mechanism, and reinjecting them by another
mechanism. Not to mention the fact that will make my trivial program much
larger.

So, anyone see what I'm missing?

% pstat -T
149/360 files
11M/63M swap space        

It's possible as busy as this machine was that it had run out of files.
I had five netscape windows open (32M main memory) and four rxvts. This
machine was rather busy when it happened. Come to think of it, those
netscape windows were looking at several graphics intensive pages.

Well there you go, then.  Back to my suggestion.

I recently purchased FreeBSD 2.2.7 with the intention of demonstrating
the use of unix commands since I don't have a unix machine available.
Will this be feasable ? Also I would like to find out if there is a
Fortran compiler that I can use with the FreeBSD operating system.
I am going to install the operating system on a seperate hard disk
devoted only to FreeBSD. I will be installing from CDROM. Am I likely to
encounter any problems ?
Thanks.

That's the one I describe in http://www.lemis.com/serial-port-patch.html.
This will solve your problem.  Nevertheless, I recommend that you
upgrade to 2.2-STABLE or (when they come out) 3.0-RELEASE or
2.2.8-RELEASE.

Better still, since you've found the URL, would be to summarize what's
in there:  "yes".

Here is my named.biit file:                                     

cache           .                       root.cache
primary         0.0.127.in-addr.arpa    pz/127.0.0
primary         integral.on.ca          pz/integral.on.ca       

and the zone file for integral.on.ca:                                

@       IN      SOA     integral.on.ca root.integral.on.ca (
                199810031       ; Serial
                28800   ; Refresh                   
                7200    ; Retry
                604800  ; Expire

        NS      plato2.ml.org.                                            
        MX      10 integral.on.ca.                                        

integral.on.ca  A       24.112.14.35
www             CNAME   integral.on.ca.
ftp             CNAME   integral.on.ca.           

Does anyone see something I've missed?

You didn't miss it, you added too much.  The zone file contains names
relative to the zone name (integral.on.ca).  You have a definition for
integral.on.ca in this file, but doesn't end in a period, so it's
relative to the zone name: integral.on.ca.integral.on.ca.  You have
two solutions:

integral.on.ca.  A       24.112.14.35

or 
		 A       24.112.14.35

(that will be relative to the @, which is the zone name).

Nope.  I am not willing to do the work for anyone unless they pay me. 
I am willing to point people in the right direction though.  I
generally avoid giving people answers that they can find in the
documentation, just point them there. Otherwise, what's the point of
documenting anything.  In the end, people need to read FAQs, man pages,
and books to become self-sufficient.  This mail list gets a lot of
questions that people could answer for themselves.  That's a lot of
noise we could do without.  IMHO, this list should be for questions
that cannot be answered by reading the available docs.
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

    I created the boot floppy from setup.exe and boot my computer from =

I've just been offered an interesting looking scanner
(http://www.zdnet.com/products/stories/reviews/0,4161,352235,00.html).
The trouble is, the damn thing is only available with a parallel port
interface.  Can anybody answer the following questions:

1.  Is there anything like a "standard" for parallel port scanners?

2.  Do we support them?  In this case, it's the Plustek OpticPro
    9636T.

3.  This scanner claims 1200dpi × 600dpi × 36 bits, which makes a
    total of 3.2 MB/sq in.  On a full sheet of paper, that's about 300
    MB.  What kind of compression do they use?

4.  Does anybody know this particular scanner?

Greg

Why in the world did you send this question to freebsd??
Go find a linux mail list...
Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

  I've never done this file the exact way you have it but this works 
for us:

@       IN      SOA     ns1.cdnow.com.  postmaster.cdnow.com. (
                        98093003; serial number - UPDATE AFTER EVERY CHANGE
                        10800   ; Refresh after 3 hours
                        3600    ; Retry after 1 hour
                        604800  ; Expire after 1 week
                        86400 ) ; Minimum TTL of 1 days
        IN      NS      ns1.cdnow.com.
        IN      NS      ns2.cdnow.com.
        IN      MX      10 socko.cdnow.com.
        IN      MX      20 daria.cdnow.com.
        IN      MX      30 socko2.cdnow.com.
        IN      A       209.83.166.2
        IN      TXT     "CDNOW - The Internet Music Store "


Then you would have your other addresses:

www	IN	CNAME	cdnow.com.



 Try throwing your IN A ipaddress into the block just below your MX
records.  Also, and an IN to your CNAME list.

Karl


 Also, specify your config directory in named.boot just for safety:

directory	/etc/namedb

That's not really something I have any desire to do (yank the SCSI cards,
etc.), otherwise I would have done it already instead of mailing the list.

Since I'm not going to make any hardware modifications, I found another
option.  There seems to be a build of 2.2.6 Stable with integrated CAM at
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/cam/2.2CAM-19980716-SNAP

Could I install this version and use CVSup to effectively upgrade
components to Release 2.2.7 level?

Thanks.

Probably.  I don't know if it would be any easier than a few minor
temporary hardware changes.

{...}

squid.conf contains a directive to set the maximum amount of VM to use,
defaulting to 8MB.

AFAIR, the VM is just a cached index to the object cache, so when the VM
is full the LRU entries are dropped just as they are from the object
cache.

The rule I have used on the couple of machines I've configured to run 
squid (as their primary purpose) is for the VM to be limited to half the
amount of real ram.  This is probably far from optimal, but appears to be
working satisfactorily.

    Hi.

    I found something and I want to fix this.  After a certain task,
xterm doesn't echo what I type.  For example,

    I did man setenv.  Then I read much as I needed, then I gave it
interrupt signal to stop man setenv.  Then it starts from there.  I type
something, but it doesn't eacho on xterm.  What is wrong?  How do I fix
this?

 And one more thing.  I noticed that error messages don't show in xterm,
but I see that it was preompted when I exit my X.  How do I configure so
that the message that are generated show in corresponding xterm and
command?

I know that this thread comes up periodically, and I searched the
archives but didn't find an answer that I liked. I want to deliver mail
directly to each user's home directory in such a way that I could enable
quotas at some time down the road and have the mail delivery agent
respect the quotas. 

	The solutions from the archives:

1. Symlink /var/mail/username to /home/username/.mail
The problem with this is that sendmail runs as root, so it won't respect
quotas.

2. Use a mailer other than sendmail
This solution might work for others, but I want to stick with sendmail
(for now anyway).

3. Use procmail with sendmail to deliver the mail
I'd like to avoid dependency on another utility (thus avoiding another
potential security hole). 

	So, I'm open to suggestions here. I'm in a position to do some creative
work, but I'd like something that is secure and portable as much as
possible.

Thanks,

Doug

1. you can tar/gzip all the things and then move archive file to other box
and untar it there:

to tar tar zcfp foo.tar.gz /home
to untar on the other box:
cd /
tar zxfp foo.tar.gz

2. do it via NFS
setup NFS service on the other box, add there
/home	your_other_box(rw)

then mount it and use cp -a or whatever you'd want to copy files

 yep. and there's another thing I have missed, I pointed to this in
private mail, but anyway:
/etc/login.conf has  special entry for user root, where path is
also specified. So this thing could affect your PATH variable in certain
way as well.

I got interested in using the 'at' utility to schedule some work and
found out that it doesn't seem to be matching the behavior described in
the man pages. I am loathe to call this a bug because I'm totally
unfamiliar 'at' and it might be pilot error.

	To start with, if I type in a very simple command like:

at 22:29 command

it never returns, and the job never executes. Doing anything more
exciting (like is described in the man page) such as:

at now + 5 seconds command

I get "at: incomplete time. So as far as I can see, the thing is totally
non-operational, although I'd be happy to be proven wrong. I'm using a
very recent -Stable and Bash 2.02.1 in case it matters. I've tried
running it both as a normal user and as root.

Thanks,

Doug

purpose in finishing out his term; the only possible solution is for the

try going to www.xfree86.org and checking the FAQ. Last I checked, some
experimental server for the SiS 5597/5598 was available.

And what about a modem called LT-winmodem (Lucend Tech) ?

I know it's PnP works fine under win, but the FreeBSD do not recognize it. I
have already tried the IO address and the IRQ given in "win
control-panel/system".

It reports: IO=0x1400 and IRQ=3.
FreeBSD do not find it.

Thanks for helping me.

You didn't say what wasn't working, but you're missing a period after
integral.on.ca in the SOA (twice) and in the A record.

Also (and maybe you already know this), unless plato2.ml.org is registered as a
name server for integral.on.ca (and it doesn't appear to be), it can be as
authoritative as it wants, but nobody will ever know to ask it any questions
for it to be authoritative about.

Is plato2.ml.org one of those dynamic DNS things? If so, I don't think you'll
be able to register it as a name server at all.

The manpage doesn't list a seconds parameter.  Since the at queue is
processed at 5-minute intervals from /etc/crontab, per-second
resolution isn't necessary.

G'day,

	I've installed FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE and I'm having some trouble
getting PPP working. I've tried setting it up a variety of different
ways, but whenever I type "term" the computer crashes and has to be
manually restarted. I assumed this was a problem with PPP but someone
just said term will crash if it can't speak to your modem correctly.

	I was wondering if you'd be able to show me what to type so that my
modem will be recognized by FreeBSD. My modem is a Netcomm Roadster II
56 Ultra SVD, and Windows95 reports it running on COM Port 3.

	Thanks in advance, regards,

	Trent
