Last night, I successfully cvsup'ed RELENG_3 from cvsup3.freebsd.org. I then attempted 'make world', but it failed with the following message: >>> Rebuilding bootstrap libraries .... /usr/src/lib/csu/i386-elf/crtbegin.c:30: section attributes are not supported for this target /usr/src/lib/csu/i386-elf/crtbegin.c:31: section attributes are not supported for this target {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}: 73: Error: Unknown pseudo-op: `.section' I next re-cvsup'ed about 6 hours later and I got about 5 file deltas. I reattempted the 'make buildworld', but it failed at the same point. I am attempting to upgrade from 2.2.5 to 3. Searches for this particular error have come up empty. Any suggestions on how to proceed would be appreciated. Thanks!

I think that's what I'm looking for. There are about 20 machines on the LAN side. de0 is the card with the real IP and de1 is 10.0.0.1. Also there are some other systems in the 172.16.X.X range attached to de0. I do not want these to be translated, just the IP's attached to de1. rc.conf appears to support various firewall and natd configurations, but nothing quite like this. Please let me know how to do this.

I understand your answer but I try to behave like anyone in front of FreeBSD cdroms. In fact I find that I had to boot with the new CDrom and upgade the bin distribution.

I recently upgraded to 3.0-stable (and made world Friday). (Possible red herring: I've noticed a couple of times since I moved from 2.2.8 to 3.0-S that shutdown -p would leave the machine complaining upon reboot that / was not clean.) Today, the machine complains (while running fsck manually, since the auto boot failed): wd0s2a: hard error reading fsbn 65734 of 65712-65823 (wd0s2 bn 65734; cn 8 tn 19 sn 25) (status 59 error 40) CANNOT READ: BLK 65712 CONTINUE?

Is this a dying hard drive? Is the 2.2.8-->3.0 transition merely a coincidence? What can I do to resurrect this thing? By the way, in my attempt to let fsck fix things for me, I seem to have deleted all the device files for my other partitions (other than /). I assume I can recreate them without trouble(?) - (if the disk is completely lost. . .). Thanks for your help.

I assume UNIX runs on time-sharing system,changing processs every time.In order to trace process change movement,I made the next program. #include main() { int i; if(fork()==0){ /* Child Process */ for(i=0;i<5;i++){ printf("This is child! num=%d\n",i); } exit(0); } else{ /* Parent Process */ for(i=0;i<5;i++){ printf("This is parent! num=%d\n",i); } } } And made it run,expecting the output should be as follows, This is child! num=0 This is parent! num=0 This is child! num=1 This is parent! num=1 and so on,but instead the actual output was as follows. This is child! num=0 This is child! num=1 This is child! num=2 This is child! num=3 This is child! num=4 This is parent! num=0 This is parent! num=1 This is parent! num=2 This is parent! num=3 This is parent! num=4 I am puzzeled.Why in the world this could happen,what was going in UNIX?Please someone untangle my mystified brain. And if someone knows how to write program to correctly trace process's change movement(using IPC,semaphor or whatsoever),please let me know.

I've been trying to resurrect my laptop from an unrelated disk problem, but I didn't want to leave your questions/suggestions ignored. According to Christopher Michaels - SSG (February 12, 1999): | #1) are you on an NT network or are you using other samba servers, or | non-of-the-above? I *believe* the MS network has 1 samba server and no NT servers. | #2) is the FBSD machine the master browser? (probably not) No. | #3) is the laptop on the same subnet as the FreeBSD machine? The FreeBSD machine has two ethernet ports: 1 on the department subnet (de0), the other (ed0) on my office subnet (just the laptop, on a private network: de0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 128.173.173.159 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 128.173.175.255 ether 00:00:f8:07:d4:a0 media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP ed0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.173.1 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 192.168.175.255 ether 02:60:8c:a6:bd:57 | #3a) is the laptop on the same subnet as the rest of the network? (probably | not) No. | #4) can you manually connect to a ms machine on your network? e.g. open up | explorer and go to \\SAMBA\SHARE (please type something real here). The laptop is (more or less) dead at the moment; I don't think this was possible. And, According to Christopher Michaels - SSG (February 12, 1999): | HENCE.. the question, is he on an NT network? AND.. what version of | samba is he running? NT network? No. Samba: neale [rdmurphy]% /usr/sbin/pkg_info -a -c | grep Information | grep samba Information for samba-1.9.18.8: According to Kent Stewart (February 12, 1999): | I have also used the browser across switches and routers. You may have to | set your routers and etc. to pass the MS stuff. You also need a master | brower (NT preferred) in each segment. What MS stuff do I have to pass on? I assume that the issue is whether or not the FreeBSD natd firewall passes this stuff on (?). I'll check as to whether or not there's something in samba (or a newer version of same) that will let me look across subnets. Thanks much.

Both servers were running fbsd 3.0-current and now all the password files for the new one doesnt work. Not the system password files but little things like the .htpasswd files for restricting access to users sites and cgi password files for admin scripts. Does anyone have any ideas why or how i could fix this? There are over 160 wwwboards on the box with passwords that are all wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm looking for an operating system like Unix. My internet provider told me that he is unsing FreeBSD for his server system and it's a great operating system as well. As I used to work in a Dos environment (or Windows), I'm afraid to loose all control on my computer. I mean I know what to do if something goes wrong with the Dos or with Windows, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to do so with Unix. I'm studying Computer Engeneering and we mostly work in a Unix environment and as time passes, I like it. There it is, I was wondering if the install will create a prompt asking me if I want to boot with Win98 or FreeBSD (if so, I gonna install it rigth now!)? Or will it simply be installed over Win98? Sam P.-S.: I heard about an Windows likely emulation... Is that true and could FreeBSD do so?

I don't have any idea what they turned on. The equipment was all managed and I didn't know there was a difference until I came to work one day and couldn't get to one of my computers, which was on a different network, that was collecting realtime manufacturing information. We went storming into the network guy's office and told him that he had broken the manufacturing networks. If I couldn't get in, they couldn't get out. He remarked that they had changed some equipment over the weekend and because of the "keyword sensitivity training" he had received in the past when they had done something like that, he dropped everything to look into it. A few minutes later he came in and asked me to try what I needed to do again and it worked. Asked for an explaination, He spit out some networking jargon and walked back to his office. Enabling plant wide Netbeui browsing was once described to me as being only one step better than enabling Apple talk or Novell over a major tcp/ip network. They are all supposed to be exceedingly chatty and enabling them plant wide supposedly required someone out of their friendly minds. In the somewhat distant past, Microsoft's Master browser's have been known to create broadcast storms, which could effectively stop a network if there were enough of them around. If you pass the packets they emit during the discovery process to your entire operation, you are in trouble. I have never seen a broadcast storm because I was never involved in monitoring the networks I used. The only thing I ever measured was the transfer rate for an FTP session between a computer on a tcp/ip network to a computer using both protocols on a Novell network. In that situation, the transfers typically ran from 1/3 to 1/4 the speed of the same file being transfered over a pure tcp/ip network. I always assumed that something was misconfigured. We adjusted timeouts to compensate for the lower throughput in that situation. This was all pre-WWW and all of the comments are probably meaningless at this point. -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 14 14:05:59 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA15822 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 14:05:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from techpower.net (techpower.net [205.133.231.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA15816 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 14:05:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hometeam@techpower.net) Received: from localhost (hometeam@localhost) by techpower.net (8.9.2/8.9.1) with ESMTP id RAA13258 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 17:07:40 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from hometeam@techpower.net) Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 17:07:40 -0500 (EST) From: hometeam To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: spam filters Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Anyone know Best Spam filters to use with freebsd or in the ports collection ? thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 14 14:07:28 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA15950 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 14:07:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from green.csi.cam.ac.uk (green.csi.cam.ac.uk [131.111.8.57]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA15942 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 14:07:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bjc23@hermes.cam.ac.uk) Received: from bjc23.trin.cam.ac.uk ([131.111.193.197]) by green.csi.cam.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 2.05 #3) id 10C9h7-0004tQ-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 22:07:18 +0000 Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 22:07:18 +0000 (GMT) From: "Ben J.

I was reading the xterm man page the other day and discovered the active icons option, which gives you a minature xterm instead of an xterm icon. In twm, you can actually type into this tiny xterm, but in fvwm2, which I normally use, you can't. The man page for xterm says that some window managers won't let you type into the icon, but fvwm2 allows you to type into other iconised things (e.g. xdvi), so it might be possible... Is it possible and if it is, how can I do it? Thanks, Ben.

If not then you need to tell samba to bind to that interface also, add this line to your smb.conf. I believe I read the netmask right from your email, if I'm wrong, please correct it. interfaces=128.173.173.159/255.255.252.0 192.168.173.1/255.255.252.0 bind interfaces only = no Now you may not be able to see the server in the network neighborhood yet but you should be able to connect to it from the laptop using \\FBSD\SHARE. #2 You need to implement cross subnet browsing. This requires that the master browser on your networks is a WINS server and also must be a SAMBA machine. wins support = yes local master = yes remote browse sync = 128.173.175.255 192.168.175.255 If that doesn't work, scratch the above settings and try the following wins proxy = yes If that doesn't work I'm not sure what to tell you...

Linux do not have FreeBSD emulation :-) What it mean is that FreeBSD run most of the linux programs around. Also, FreeBSD has "the ports collection", which is a huge collection of software. You browse it and you install what you like. The command are mostly the same. I don'think that PINE is a server: I think it's a mail reader. FreeBSD come with a mail server and has a reputation of being rock-stable.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a FreeBSD box that I want to use as a gateway/firewall to the net in a small LAN through a dialup connection. I have an idea on how to setup User PPP so that it'll connect on-demand (at least I know where to get the info). What I don't know is how to tell the firewall to restrict/accept incoming data from the modem (here tun0 interface of course) using a dynamically allocated address which can be from one of three distinct IP ranges. I know what the address of the other side of the PPP link is, most often (I've seen it change at times). I've searched the archives, and Doug White had suggested to keep the rules as general as possible, except from known (internal) addresses. This is something I can't do since I want to setup servers which should only be accessible to people who have certain IP address ranges (mostly the same as the ones I can be assigned) and have all other connections blocked out from the outside interface. Does anyone know of any docs/ tutorials/etc about setting up firewalls on dynamically allocated addresses on known interfaces? Is it possible at all?

Or will it simply be installed over Win98? You should visit http://www.freebsd.org where you can find answers to all of your questions (and more). Basically, the answers are: FreeBSD *is* UNIX - it is not a "Unix like" operating system. It is based on a distribution of UNIX that is derived from efforts at Berkely. Yes, you can set things up to boot either Windows or FreeBSD. You can consult the web pages at http://www.freebsd.org for the details.

Yes - there is an on-going Windows emulation project called Wine. It is still *alpha* quality. Depending on the Windows, program you want to run it might work, or it might not. There is a newsgroup where most Wine things are discussed. I believe you can pointers to more information regarding Wine on the FreeBSD web pages, http://www.freebsd.org - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 14 16:08:29 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA01015 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:08:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (pinsoft.internet.co.nz [202.37.141.181]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA00956 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:08:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jonc@pinnacle.co.nz) Received: from kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz [202.37.163.2]) by kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id NAA26773; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 13:07:52 +1300 (NZDT) Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 13:07:51 +1300 (NZDT) From: Jonathan Chen To: Emmanuel Gravel cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Configuring BootEasy In-Reply-To: <36C75A3B.F1A39614@psn.net> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 14 Feb 1999, Emmanuel Gravel wrote: [...] > He'd prefer to have them reflect exactly what the different OSes are > (although I find it pretty funny that Win98 is represented as ?? :) > I'd still like to configure it to do exactly what I want it to > (including setting the time it takes before it'll auto-boot, and > setting which OS it'll use as default, instead of defaulting to the > last OS). There's an alternative to BootEasy on the CDROM set called OSBS-beta which will do exactly what you've just speficied. I'm not too sure about a URL, though.

As in most multi-tasking systems, FreeBSD processes usually run for a quantum (or "time slice") before switching to another process. The length of the quantum in FreeBSD is 100ms. How long a process runs when there are other running processes is more complicated than just the quantum, however, since there is also a sophisticated priority queueing mechanism that biases the running of 'interactive' processes over compute bound processes. It's not my intention to get deeply into the details here of how it all works - just to explain why the output was as you've observed it above. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 14 16:38:46 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA05644 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:38:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail1.sirius.com (mail1.sirius.com [205.134.253.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA05638 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:38:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freepix@sirius.com) Received: from Jasons (ppp-frx201--049.sirius.net [205.134.236.49]) by mail1.sirius.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id QAA07625 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:38:42 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199902150038.QAA07625@mail1.sirius.com> X-Sender: freepix@mail.sirius.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0 Demo Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 16:39:36 -0800 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Jason Scott Subject: Fwd: Error Message Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Here is a error message that is given before my server reboots.

Connection using tcpwrapper is immediate in sense that neither the user, nor the sysadmin will ever complaain of wrapper causing slowing in traffic. In case you just need it done, you may hack the tcwraper source code to do that for you, but I recommend changing the name to ( repparw ) if you see what I mean :-) adios amigo.

As for the slow down, if I enable ident'ing on tcpwrappers, it waits until it knows the connecting party's username before it starts the demon. If the connecting party doesn't run ident, this attempt will cause a 10 second delay in the wrapper(the timeout). I don't want this delay. I want the connection to, lets say, ftpd, to launch ftpd immediately, and look up the user name info in the background, since I don't want to filter based on it. I just want to log it.

I just want to log it. Major rewrite of tcp_wrappers is needed. The log entry is written before the daemon is started. Hence you can't get around the delay. Normally tcp_wrappers will do all of it's lookups, determine if it should allow access, log the info, then exec the daemon. To be able to log the IDENT info in the background would require some tricky stuff. If you fork a process to continue the lookup and exec the daemon, when the lookup process finishes the daemon will get a SIGCHLD which it may not know how to deal with. Also the PID logged to the log file will be wrong.

Thanks, Tom Now how would reinstalling the OS help you change the root password? In fact, how would reinstalling the OS help you with anything? Reinstalling the OS is Microsoft's answer to people who have problems they can't solve. It doesn't help, but it keeps people quiet for a while. To change your root password, log in as root and use the `passwd' program. Read the manual for more details. Forgotten your root password? Don't do that. But in that case you'll need to reboot in single user mode. From ``The Complete FreeBSD'': If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 191), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 191 says: Single user mode ________________ Sometimes it's inconvenient that multiple users can access the system. For example, if you're repartitioning a disk, you don't want other people walking all over the disk while you're doing so. Even if you're the only user on the system, daemons may be doing things in the background. In order to avoid this problem, you can stop the boot process before most of the daemons have been started and enter single user mode. To do this, specify the -s flag at boot time: Boot: -s As soon as the device probes have been completed, the system startup will be interrupted, and you will be prompted for a shell. Always choose sh: some other shells, notably bash, get confused in single user mode. Only the root file system will be accessible, and it will be mounted read-only. The reason for this is that the file system may be damaged and require repair before you can write to it. If you do need to write to the root file system, you should first check the consistency of the file system with fsck (see the man page on page 679). For example, npx0 on motherboard npx0: INT 16 interface end of the probes (high intensity display) Enter pathname of shell or RETURN for sh: hit RETURN erase ^H, kill ^U, intr ^C # fsck -y /dev/rwd0a check the integrity of the root file system ** /dev/rwd0a ** Last Mounted on / ** Root file system ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames ** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups 1064 files, 8190 used, 6913 free (61 frags, 1713 blocks, 0.4% fragmentation) # mount -u / remount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount any other file systems you need To leave single user mode and enter multi user mode, just enter CTRL-D: # umount /usr # ^D Skipping file system checks...

This is really more of a web server problem, but to answer: 1. Turn on SSI according to the web server instructions 2. embed one in your document (Ex: for apache, create an html page which just has an image tag, then create a new page which has inside it: " 3. Then, view the page with the server side includ with your browser. If you see the image, they are working. If not, you have problems. hope that helps. -- Mark Maurer markm@dct.com Programmer, DCT Technologies mwmaurer@mtu.edu Senior, Michigan Technological University "How could this be a problem in a country where we have Intel and Microsoft?" -- Al Gore, on the Y2K bug.

If you can, it works. It'll give you the date and time the file was last modified. You could also try a cgi script that uses SSI, but the above is probably a quicker test. Also, you'll need to use .shtml instead of .html for any HTML docs that have an include in them. -- : Jim Mock | [jim@corp.au.triax.com] : : System Administrator | http://www.triax.com/ : : Triax Internet Services | ----------------------------- : : Portland, OR USA | The FreeBSD' zine : : Wagga Wagga, NSW Australia | http://www.freebsdzine.org/ : : FreeBSD: The Power To Serve | http://www.freebsd.org/ : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 14 22:32:24 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA11284 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 22:32:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ivory.lm.com (ivory.lm.com [204.171.44.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA11279 for ; Sun, 14 Feb 1999 22:32:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from it@ivory.lm.com) From: it@ivory.lm.com Received: from joe (d11-23.dyn.telerama.com [205.201.41.23]) by ivory.lm.com (8.8.5/8.6.12) with SMTP id BAA22217 for ; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:32:20 -0500 (EST) Reply-To: To: Subject: has any one gotten the MS sound to work on a pentium based multia Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:34:09 -0500 Message-ID: <315D2D3163A8D211ABE100AA00C287E53CA8@moe.thestooges.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a Pentium 100 based multia and it will not recognize my integrated sound card.

Sue, a quick a dirty way I've been using is to email it as a text message back to myself using pine. Save and edit off the headers and it'll be about 99% complete. Usually you see those funky characters because they cut and paste from Word for Windows into their E-mail program.

Thanks Rick, that's a great idea and I have some uses for it! Unfortunately in this case 99% is nowhere near good enough. It has to go through screen readers and speech synthesisers, Mac, OS/2, and whatever hairbrained system someone might try it on, and be perfect. Also, this file has some very long lines which would get truncated or unexpectedly wrapped when sent as email. And if there is something strange, I have to read it and guess what it should have been. Maybe someone will come up with something for this particular case. I can't believe there's not some little untility for this that's been hanging around unloved for years. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 15 01:13:11 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA03654 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:13:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dsinw.com (dsinw.com [207.149.40.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA03646 for ; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:13:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hamellr@dsinw.com) Received: (from hamellr@localhost) by dsinw.com (8.8.8/8.7.3) id BAA23017; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:10:36 -0800 (PST) Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 01:10:36 -0800 (PST) From: rick hamell To: Sue Blake cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: cleaning a text file In-Reply-To: <19990215201056.19929@welearn.com.au> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Also, this file has some very long lines which would get truncated > or unexpectedly wrapped when sent as email.

Thanks to a URL given to me by a subscriber to this list, I was able to successfully upgrade my home system from 2.2.7-Stable to 3.0-Stable. However, I've run into a couple of anomalies that I thought one of you might have some ideas with. The first has to do with logging into my system. I log in fine, but I run "uptime" and "users" as part of my .login script. When they run, I see some strange output: uptime: /dev//data: No such file or directory 1:32AM up 2 days, 23:40, 1 user, load averages: 0.04, 0.04, 0.00 Users online: 10.0.0.3 data That happens regardless of whether the programs are run from .login, or if I run them manually from the prompt. I have no idea how it's confusing my login name with the name of a tty... I also don't know how it's getting the IP address that I ssh to my system from (from my NT box) as another name..! 10.0.0.3 is the IP address of my NT machine on my LAN. I've tried recreating the devices in /etc using MAKEDEV; didn't change anything. Any hints on this will be greatly appreciated! The other thing I keep running into has to do with my network setup. I have to explain how my network is set up, though: I have a total of 4 computers, plus 1 HP JetDirect EX Plus. 2 of the computers run FreeBSD (one belongs to a friend), and 2 run NT. My BSD machine, ds9, has 2 3Com 3C590 ethernet cards, which are vx0 and vx1. My friend's BSD machine has just 1. All of the machines connect to a hub, which in turn uplinks to my cable modem. The 2 BSD machines each get their IP addresses from RoadRunner (my cable ISP), and on my machine, that IP goes to vx0. vx1 on my machine is configured with an IP address of 10.0.0.1, and acts as the gateway for my NT machines. My friend's BSD machine has an IP aliased onto its single ethernet adapter of 10.0.0.2, so that in case the cable modem or DHCP server goes down, the machines on my local net can still talk to each other. (My NT machines are .3 and .4, and the JetDirect is .5.) What I've been noticing since the upgrade are things like this, which keep appearing in my log files: Feb 15 01:26:20 ds9 /kernel: arp: 24.94.29.1 is on vx0 but got reply from 08:00:3e:04:86:b6 on vx1 Feb 15 01:32:18 ds9 /kernel: arp: 10.0.0.3 is on vx1 but got reply from 00:10:4b:c9:27:12 on vx0 24.94.29.1 is the IP address of the RoadRunner router for my area. I have no clue why RR's router would be talking to my vx1 interface, nor do I know why my NT machine would be talking to my vx0 interface. I suspect it has something to do with routing tables, but I don't know enough about how that works to be able to check. "arp -a" didn't yield anything, either. As with the other problem, any hints or advice will be gladly accepted. Thanks in advance! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://www.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

This is a quite important point, since the partitions are defined with the extended scheme, and I cannot install an operating system which don't use it (I will break all my partitions table). This problem arise when using the adaptec card with an old BIOS (I run currently the version 1.2 but I don't plan to upgrade it). I have the same problem with Linux. Under Linux, it is solved by giving an option when booting the kernel to force the kernel to use extended translation for the disk. I suspect the same solution can be applied to freeBSD (since most of the driver code is common with Linux) but I don't know how. It's not easy to edit the boot floppy since it has an UFS file system (perhaps on a Sun). Any Idea ?

Normally, the way I use fetchmail is in conjunction with sendmail. The "default" installation of sendmail on freebsd is adequate (you may need to change the "DM" line in your /etc/sendmail.cf to your ISP's domain name to make your From lines correct). For example, my /etc/sendmail.cf has the following "DM" line: DMxnet.com Next, a quick and dirty way to run fetchmail (provided you're only downloading mail for yourself and not for several users) is to edit your .fetchmailrc to look something like: set daemon 180 # Poll at 3-minute intervals defaults fetchall # Use this for production poll YOUR.SMTPSERVER.COM protocol POP3: password YOURPASSWORD This is almost exactly from the sample.fetchmailrc provided with the sources for fetchmail (I compiled it myself instead of from the ports, so dig in your ports source directory for this).

Would you recommend > FreeBSD rather then Linux? This question is a little bit fussy. You won't expect to get a recommendation for Linux in a FreeBSD mailing list I think. If you're interested in learning UNIX, FreeBSD is a good choice. Berkeley UNIX (BSD) has had a very strong influence on UNIX for lot of years. So, if you make experiences with FreeBSD you have a good chance to feel comfortable with Compaq/Digital UNIX, SunOS and others. Linux, of course, has also been influenced by BSD, and it is convincing UNIX clone. Nevertheless, Linux is Linux. Its roots are different from those of the rest of the UNIX world. You may be surprised not to read about technical stuff here. There are differences between FreeBSD and Linux that may strongly suggest a choice under special circumstances but from an overall point of view both systems do a good job. One thing is sure: If you decide for FreeBSD this decision won't be wrong.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'm subscriber to an Internet cable access service (high-speed access via the TV cable - works great, using CyberWave cable modems from Motorola). The ISP uses DHCP to allocate IP addresses - I'm using the DHCP client from the Wide project (the most recent one, from the ports). As I'm running this woderful OS that is FreeBSD (3.0-Current or 3.1-Beta), my machine never disconnects from the network. >From time to time, the IP address which is allocated to my machine changes subnets (it goes from the xxx.yyy.18.zzz network to the xxx.yyy.21.www). This seems to disturb wildly the Net connection (the dhcp client complains about changing subnets, and often, I'm obliged to reboot to use the network). Atfer this (rather long) introduction, here is my question : is it a good engineering practice to have the DHCP server change subnets in its response even though the machine does not change physical network ? (the rfc-2131 on DHCP specifically allows the subnet change - on p.27, but I can't find a good reason to do so) Thanks in Advance TfH To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 15 05:31:46 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA04148 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 05:31:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.mepnet.cz (ns.mepnet.cz [193.86.30.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id FAA04132 for ; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 05:31:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from simond@p3.mepnet.cz) Received: (qmail 17508 invoked from network); 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: from fw.mepnet.cz (HELO ns.mepnet.cz) (193.86.30.69) by ns.mepnet.cz with SMTP; 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: (qmail 1289 invoked from network); 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: from ns.p3.mepnet.cz (10.34.1.2) by ns.mepnet.cz with SMTP; 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: (qmail 4724 invoked from network); 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: from ms.p3.mepnet.cz (10.34.10.51) by ns.p3.mepnet.cz with SMTP; 15 Feb 1999 13:31:40 -0000 Received: by MS with Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) id <10K823SC>; Mon, 15 Feb 1999 14:30:47 +0100 Message-ID: From: =?iso-8859-2?Q?Dr=E1pal_=A9imon_=28O=DA_Praha_3=29?= To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: SimonD@p3.mepnet.cz Date: Mon, 15 Feb 1999 14:30:45 +0100 X-Priority: 3 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thank you very much for answering my e-mail.

(FIPS is a program designed to split an existing DOS partition without deleting the data on it).I used the CD-ROM Version2.2.6. My mouse type is PS/2 and the device is /dev/psm0.I really need the solution to continue my further graduate research.Thank you very much for your cooperation. That`s all.

You could use an additional swap file (see FAQ) in /usr to increase paging space, and you could move a subdirectory tree from /var to /usr and then create a symbolic link back from /usr to /var to make better use of your disk space.

Actually Linux runs "async" by default, not the equivalent of "sync". I once had Linux crash during the X-Windows source untar, and the filesystem was so corrupted I had to reinstall. Other features of the Linux filesystem seems to slow things down. While untarring source code you get the impression that it is much faster than FreeBSD. However, when it has finished, you will find the filesystem get unresponsive for a second if you try to start another I/O intensive operation, presumable the cache is dumping to disk. I was never truly happy with ext2, it was too easy to corrupt. I have yet to corrupt UFS so badly that I can't rebuild it with relative ease, even using "async".

Linux is an operating system that is "like" UNIX. FreeBSD is based on the Berkely Unix Sources... FreeBSD isn't UNIX-like, it _is_ UNIX (trademark holders notwithstanding.) Thus, FreeBSD's sources are much more mature - many people find FreeBSD to be much more compatible with traditional UNIX and more stable than other OSs.

FreeBSD and Linux have different roots. FreeBSD evolved from BSD UNIX developed by the Computer Science Research Group of the University of Berkeley in California from about 1977 to 1994. The creation of Linux (starting about 1989) was inspired by Minix, a free UNIX clone developed by Andrew S Tanenbaum as a small UNIX-like OS for educational purposes. BSD UNIX has had a very strong influence on the whole UNIX world (including Linux). Thus FreeBSD has many things in common with other UNIX OS, probably more than Linux has. To my mind Slackware Linux comes most close to FreeBSD from all the Linux systems.
