Everything went fine, though the mod_ssl version included seems a bit outdated. The problem is that apache.sh won't start on boot nor from the command line. Here are my steps: cd /usr/ports/www/apache13-php3 make USA_RESIDENT=NO (selected my sql server, zlib and mod_ssl) make certificate (selected RSA and type 3) make install reboot Possible problems: 1. Network could be down, but my gateway is up, running properly and sendmail starts fine. 2. Oddly, it seems there are no httpd.conf-dist files, except in /usr/ports/www/apache13-php3/work/apache... shouldn't those files be moved during 'make install' to /usr/local/share/apache or /usr/local/apache? The later directory doesn't seem to exist, though it is mentioned in the apache manpage. 3. Maybe ssl needs more configuration than 'make certificate'. I'm not familiar with ssl at all, but I have tried to read some documentation and it's not for the faint of heart. Apart from those three possibilities, I'm at a loss... any help would be appreciated.

I am using userland ppp now, and its giving me good results, the downloads are much faster now. One poiint here, Dr. GRORG LEHEY :-) mentioned some questions about how I am measuring the connection speed. well you are in a better place to tell me how to measure the throughput, and connection speed, since I dont have a clue, I am thinking of things like pppstat or things alike, so you may help by suggesting other software. So, now I got the speed I wanted, is it possible that pppd and not kppp, that was causing this, since kppp is merely an interface to pppd, how to make sure which was the cause. again thanks to AALL who helped, any POSITIVE feedback is greatly welcome. ===== MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

While I may not have the techinical jargon to explain whats happening, I can give you a general idea. Basically, someone on your subnet has thier 'modem' plugged into a hub. All the LAN traffic is goin out over the cable modem connection instead of being properly routed within the LAN itself. What your seeing is someone else's computer telling your subnet that it has the 192.168.0.2 address, and arp see's that IP address is on your LAN. You can try to send your ISP the message, and tell them what I've said here, and they *might* take the time to figure out who has an incorrectly set up LAN. Otherwise, you could assign your LAN some different non routed IP's in the 192.168 subnet, such as 198.168.34.12 . As far as I know, there isn't a way to filter this message out. In any event, it's better to know that someone has a misconfigured LAN, than not know. >ed0 is for my local network at home and ed1 is my cable modem. > >The netmask for my ed1 device is set to 255.255.252.0 as that was what was >provided by @home. > >Thanks, >- Will > >Here is my ifconfig -a output: > >ed0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 > inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 > ether 00:80:c6:f8:98:6f >ed1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 > inet 24.112.80.104 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 24.112.83.255 > ether 00:e0:29:16:71:7f >lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 > inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 -- Allen Cleveland allenc@mindsieve.com There is no try.

The most common answer to your frequently asked question (http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/book.html#PPP) is this: Don't use kernel ppp. :-) Rather use the very well maintained userland ppp. The following reference will be useful: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ppp-and-slip.html#USERPPP If you need documentation with more of a hand-holding angle, try this: http://flag.blackened.net/freebsd/ Ciao, Sheldon.

So apply your brain to the problem and take it one step further. :-) You already know that removing read permission on a directory makes its contents invisible, right? So: cd /path/to/ftp/directory mkdir arb chmod 751 arb mkdir arb/leech chmod 751 arb/leech If your ftp users are in the group of the user creating these directories, then you should use mode 711 instead of 751.

Well, one thing I can tell you is that Bill Paul did change some things with regard to the xl driver from 3.1 to 3.3 so that might at least be a reason to. Also, 3.3 has i4b in it which has been greatly modified from what I see in the logfiles.

New PIII box, running 3.3 Release on cable modem with fixed IP. Intel Card, fxp0 128MB of Ram. Single user machine, for now. Runs wonderfully for awhile, 10 hours or so, sometimes longer. Then all of a sudden I lose connection to the net. cannot ping out. can ping localhost, can ping othermachines on the same network hub. The outside world can ping my IP [tried it from an unrelated connection]. telnetting to my fixed IP, from the outside, leads to a connection refused message. As far as I can tell when I lose connectivity nothing else is affected. kde running fine as are all aps. No error message in dmesg or /var/log/messages. Nothing unusual. netstat shows I am not connected sockstat shows httpd, sendmail, telnet running ps, of course, confirms it. If I reboot then connection come back. Hardy what I wish to do :-) Tried killing inetd and restarting the daemon. Tried kill -HUP 1 Neither gets connectivity back. Two questions. 1. How can I get connectivity back without rebooting? 2.

I had a friend with a cable modem download it for me but for some reason the .gz has a CRC error. Say.. split -b16m 3.3-install.cd0.gz 3.3-install.cd0.gz. md5 * > CHECKSUM.MD5 I'm not asking for my own personal benefit, but rather becauase I suspect I'm not the only one this happens to. If I could run the same split command on my own .gz and compare MD5 results I could re-download only the affected portions over my pokey 24kbps connection. As far as my limited vision can see, the only downside of doing this is eating up another 650MB of drive space on ftp.freebsd.org and (optionally) it's mirrors. FWIW I decompressed the .gz, CRC error and all, and mounted it as a vnode. Going through the directory tree, I've only found one file so far that seems corrupt (some wmicons package IIRC). Had I downloaded the non-gzipped version I probably wouldn't have noticed the problem.

Make sure that: 1) apache.sh is executable. You can test this by su-in to root and trying to run it from the command line. 2) apache.sh is in the /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory 3) the /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory is in the list of startup directories.

The later directory doesn't seem to exist, though it > is mentioned in the apache manpage. You need to have httpd.conf, not httpd.conf-dist. The *-dist files are examples for you to start with and usually work as is, but should be customized. Check the file /var/db/pkg/apache*/+CONTENTS and see where it put those files. Then copy the *.conf-dist files to non *.conf-dist names. In fact, I think that the more recent versions of the apache ports use the file /usr/local/etc/apache/apache.conf to take the place of all three or four of the old *.conf files.

It sounded more like a cable-modem-company inflicted problem anyway. I'm on Road Runner at home and they screw with my IP all the time. Similar symptoms. One thing that's different between us, though, is that they assign me a dynamic IP via DHCP not a static one. Is DHCP used in your system anywhere? > Two questions. > > 1.

If not, its probably not a FreeBSD problem. You also might want to try using ipfw to log traffic coming into your ethernet card in order to see if anything funny is going on. To do that, compile the pseudo device bpf and the options that have "IPFIREWALL" or "IPFILTER" in them into your kernel. Then set up some ipfw rules to log the data on your ethernet card. By doing this I've found a number of attempts by script kiddies to use Window vulnerabilities against my system. :) Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 10 9:17:29 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B20D9158BE for ; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 09:16:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id MAA28545; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 12:19:47 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

You were right, the names have changed with the version I have installed. The file name now end with *.default now, and they were already renamed without that extension. So, I do have /usr/local/etc/apache/apache.conf which seems to be configured fine. Thanks for the help, now I'm really not sure what's going on. This is a fresh install of FreeBSD-CURRENT, and I only have postgresql installed, and apache+php+mod_ssl, both from the ports collection (note from my last email, I mentioned "my sql server" which is pgsql, not mysql). ... will keep you posted if I get anywhere also.

The green link light is on, next to the RJ45 plug. Good thought. Can telnet to localhost The cable modem runs into a hub. I have two FreeBSD boxes connected to the hub. One running 2.2.6 is fine and stable. The new one running 3.3 is fine except it has lost the ability to be connected to from outside the lan. You can ping it from your machine but you could not telnet in if you had an account. You could ping and telnet into the FreeBSD box running 2.2.6 Fixed IPs, not DHCP on these boxes. Also have Mac connected to the Lan, it is connected via dhcp and working fine. Just the new box, with 3.3 is a problem. Can telnet to my IP from the 3.3 box but cannot telnet to any other box, including the box on the lan. can ping the other machines on the lan. Appreciate any ideas or advice.

Getting anything from those people is far worse than pulling teeth. The standard refrain is Me: Can't get sound working ... Them: Click on My Computer, then.... Me: (Interupting the interuption) under FreeBSD and need programming data for the sound device. Them: FreeBSD? Is that a new Microsoft app? and it goes steadily downhill from there.

The problem appears to be the sender's email is: user@hostname.ISP.co.uk, when it should be user@ISP.co.uk. I realise that this problem is a result of my using a dialup PPP link. Now all I have to do is recreate my /etc/sendmail.cf as per the FAQ instructions (sections 8.18 and 8.19). According to these instructions once I create my file foo.mc in the duirectory: /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf, I am then supposed to do a "make foo.mc". So m4 converts foo.mc to a foo.cf (so as to later replace /etc/sendmail.cf). Now here lies the problem. When I do make foo.mc, I get the error: Makefile:32 ***missing separator.Stop Looking at Makefile:32 it has the line: ".if defined(SENDMAIL_CF)" Any ideas?

I had a friend with a cable modem download it for me but for some reason the .gz has a CRC error. Say.. split -b16m 3.3-install.cd0.gz 3.3-install.cd0.gz. md5 * > CHECKSUM.MD5 I'm not asking for my own personal benefit, but rather becauase I suspect I'm not the only one this happens to. If I could run the same split command on my own .gz and compare MD5 results I could re-download only the affected portions over my pokey 24kbps connection. As far as my limited vision can see, the only downside of doing this is eating up another 650MB of drive space on ftp.freebsd.org and (optionally) it's mirrors. FWIW I decompressed the .gz, CRC error and all, and mounted it as a vnode. Going through the directory tree, I've only found one file so far that seems corrupt (some wmicons package IIRC). Had I downloaded the non-gzipped version I probably wouldn't have noticed the problem.

The Firewall book at www.ora.com is one place to start, another is www.securityfocus.com. This will give you a rough place to start in terms of the concepts you will need to understand. Once you have identified the various concepts, search through the mailinglist archives at www.dejanews.com (power search through mailing.freebsd.*,comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.* ) on each of those concepts for discussions of them in the past as they relate to FreeBSD. e.g. packetfiltering -> ipfw, look for discussions around ipfw through the mailing lists. One topic that does not seem to be emphasized enough is the human aspect. You can have the best technical security systems in place, but if there is no one paying attention to what is happening, you are not too far ahead. Something simple like, logging.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG [Please CC: me on any replies - thanks!] 1) Does anyone have the recommended filesystem sizes for 3.x? I couldn't find anything on the web site. Had a fairly difficult upgrade from 2.2-stable to 3.3 (source build). Lots of make failures (disk space problems in /usr/obj, /usr and /) Had to do a fair amount of hacking to get the process finished. Hopefully, /usr and /usr/obj problems will go away when I purge the last remains of aout support. My / looks to need resizing, had to purge unneeded executables and remove ALL (yes rebooting was scary) old kernels in order to be able to install the 3.x kernel. 2) Also, is there a method of making recovery floppies for 3.x ? I recall a two disk solution (but this was a couple of years ago). I'm going to have to dump to scsi tape, boot from a recovery floppy, remake / and restore.

I read all the postings about it in the mailing list archives before posting here. It seems that this card is supported, (i am running 3.3-release) under the ensoniq driver. From what I can tell, I had to compile support for it in the kernel. I added the line: device es1 to the kernel and recompiled it. Upon bootup, it says the kernel detects the following: Oct 10 02:54:37 /kernel: es1: rev 0x01 int a irq 9 on pci0.10.0 Oct 10 02:54:37 /kernel: pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0x6500 (I don't know what pcm1 is, i didn't add that to the kernel) So it looks like it detects (did i do this right?), and I makedev'ed snd0 and snd1. Now as a test, x11amp was run on a test mp3. It seems like the mp3 is playing, but no sound is coming out of the speakers. If anyone has gotten their SoundBlaster 128 PCI to work, please let me know by private email (I am not subscribed to the list) how I can do this. Should enough people be curious about how to set it up I can also type up the instructions after I get this working and stick them on the web for people.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, On one of my new systems running FreeBSD 3.3 (19991002-STABLE) I noticed that as soon as I added users to the system which long names (>8 chars), top widened the USERNAME field to 16 characters and shrunk the COMMAND field to 4 characters. Additionally, the header columns are longer than 80 characters and so therefore start wrapping and ruining the whole display. I'm running this on an SMP system, so there's also an extra C column which takes up more space. I don't know if the same screen space problem would occur without the SMP. Anyway, I was wondering if there was a way to limit the USERNAME colunm to 8 characters (even if there are longer usernames in the password file) while keeping the COMMAND column with it's full length (at least 10 chars). Currently with a 4 character limit on the COMMAND column, top is pretty useless.

I strongly suggest to always either name the archive explicitly with the f modifier or to set the TAPE environment variable. > Also, I would need to do something like mt rewind before starting my > backup, correct? Customarily tapes are rewound at the end of the backup. Also, some (all?) tape drives rewind any newly inserted tape. > Since you have to explicitly state the tape size on the command > line I'm assuming I have to pretend the hardware compression isn't > there and just use the maximum guaranteed size of 2GB as opposed > to "up to 4GB"? You shouldn't need to give the tape size. There's a well established standard for the driver to return a short write when it meets the end of tape. The backup program will recognize this and prompt for a new tape. Both tar and dump support this. Try it. If it doesn't work (I guess this feature is somewhat prone to breakage) send in a bug report. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 10 18: 5: 4 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp13.bellglobal.com (smtp13.bellglobal.com [204.101.251.52]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6FDB414D27 for ; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 18:05:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from a.genkin@utoronto.ca) Received: from main.wgaf.net (HSE-TOR-ppp22822.sympatico.ca [209.226.71.112]) by smtp13.bellglobal.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id VAA22139 for ; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 21:07:01 -0400 (EDT) Received: from antipode by main.wgaf.net with local (Exim 2.05 #1 (Debian)) id 11aUwk-0002yd-00; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 22:12:18 -0400 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Why use tape for backups?

I've looked here for others with the same problem and checked out the FAQ's and "The Complete FreeBSD," but I seem to be at an impasse. I have an internal, plug-n-play Zoom V.34 33.6 Speakerphone faxmodem that I can't seem to get to a usable sio_. I have Win98 on one drive (0) and BSD on the other (the accomplishment of which is a story in its own right) and I wish to keep the system that way, indefinitely. The modem isn't a Winmodem, as far as I can tell; it worked fine under Debian Linux. (I was a bit disappointed that Netscape hiccups caused Linux to crash a few times and decided to give FreeBSD a try.) I had the modem configured for COM3, IRQ5, 0x3e8 under Windows and Linux. (It configured to ttyS2 in Linux.) So, I put the pnp ID that I found (I think -- it was the one in the square brackets in the pnp detection output), and a text field in the sippnp_ids[] struct in sio.c and edited the sio2 line in my kernel config file (removing the "disable"). When I try to use this configuration, the kernel keeps seeming to find the modem at sio4 (yep, four). Since my BIOS is finding the modem (printing its info as "Zoom V.34 33.6 Speakerphone SVD," Card Number 1, Device Number 0, DMA - NA, IRQ 5 at boot time), I tried running "boot -c" upon booting BSD, using "pnp 1 0 bios" -- to no effect. Whether I use boot -c or not, the kernel prints out a message to the effect that it found my modem at sio4. Furthermore, when I "enable" (removed "disable" and rebuild the kernel) sio2 and reboot, the kernel complains "sio2 not probed due to I/O address conflict with sio4 at 0x3e8." So, I decided to try my luck with moving the modem to COM2, IRQ3 -- with no luck. I disabled sio2 again and rebuilt the kernel and tried booting with "boot -c" and without. Again, BSD keeps seeing the modem at sio4 and complains about the address conflict when probing sio1. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? I'd sure appreciate any words of wisdom. Thanks, Bob Giesen P.S. I'm enclosing the kernel config files with and without the "disable" specifier in the sio2 line (kernenbl.txt & kerndsbl.txt) and the dmesg output after trying to boot with each resultant kernel (dmsgenbl.txt & dmsgdsbl.txt), and the cut from the sio.c file that shows the altered siopnn_ids[] struct (sio_cut.c); that was the only alteration I made to that file. --------------B47AE1BEDFB57BA83F5EB518 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="kernenbl.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="kernenbl.txt" # # GIESEN -- My first crack at a kernel configuration file. # # For more information read the handbook part System Administration -> # Configuring the FreeBSD Kernel -> The Configuration File. # The handbook is available in /usr/share/doc/handbook or online as # latest version from the FreeBSD World Wide Web server # # # An exhaustive list of options and more detailed explanations of the # device lines is present in the ./LINT configuration file.

Several. - Try doing an offsite, archival backup with a HD. You can do it, but it certaintly isn't cheap. - Try keeping multiple versions of a nearly full disk with a HD. - Disk controlers and/or cables can and do fail in messy ways which eat drives (I has a Sun SPARC 5 that ate 3-4 disks before we has Sun replace the mother board, and a friend of mine had a drive cable go bad such that it mangled his disks quite consistantly), if you backup is sitting on your shelf, no system failure which doesn't burn the house down is going to touch it. - If you're a normal IDE user, what if you have two full disks to backup, with a CDROM drive around, you can't add enough HDs to do backups on. - If you're a SCSI user with more then one fast disk you're allready into the range where tapes are cheaper. In summary, if you really care about your data, hard drives are likely a more expensive option. Anyway, who wants to end up with only one machine anyway. ;-) -- Brooks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 10 18:52:55 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4556314D8E for ; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 18:52:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id LAA23882; Mon, 11 Oct 1999 11:22:42 +0930 (CST) Date: Mon, 11 Oct 1999 11:22:42 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: Christian Weisgerber Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: backup method reccommendation?

Correct. The version in -CURRENT (and thus in a -RELEASE coming soon) can do this, however. And normally that's not an issue, since you can rebuild devices with MAKEDEV. >> Also, I would need to do something like mt rewind before starting my >> backup, correct? > > Customarily tapes are rewound at the end of the backup. That depends on what you ask for. It's possible to remove a QIC tape without rewinding it, but DDS, Exabyte and DLT all have to be rewound before you can remove them. If you're using the non-rewind tape device, however, you may need to do an explicit rewind. In most cases, 'mt unload' is more useful than 'mt rewind'.

This used to be the correct answer. I'm no longer sure it is. Certainly I think that the current generation of tape units is *much* less reliable than hard disk. The media are cheaper, but when I consider the number of DDS drives I wore out doing regular daily backups, I think that backing up to disk might have been cheaper.

Yes, if you are foolish enough to reuse a single backup tape instead of at least switching back and forth between two.

Maybe DDS wasn't the right choice. I've been using Exabyte 8mm backups for years, both personally and at various companies; and I've had more problems with disk drives going bad than I have with tape drives. Also, the physical density is much higher for tapes. I can keep archival tape backups in a -much- smaller space than the equivalent disk volume. For personal use with a single desktop machine, something like a Jaz drive might be a reasonable alternative to tape; especially since it would also be useful as a non-backup removable media drive. But it really doesn't scale well. For example, it is very difficult to do a scheduled backup that won't fit on a single cartridge. But with tapes, per-tape capacities are much higher (40Gb or more) and auto-loaders are readily available. I'd love to find a viable alternative to tape; but so far, nothing has been able to quite measure up on the combination of price-per-bit, archival quality, overall capacity, and ease of use. Maybe in a couple of years (re)writable DVD-ROMs with a carrousel be an option; but for now, tape rules. -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 10 19:26: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2483514C2A for ; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 19:26:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id WAA29706; Sun, 10 Oct 1999 22:28:08 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

Daily incrementals go to HDD, and the weekly level 0's that are archived "forever[0]" go on tape. [0] How long this is is a very ugly and complicated question... which I will once again learn next week trying to get some old code off our old (10+ years) VAX backups tapes.

I've had many problems with each. Our company started with DDS, then moved to Exabyte, and now we're using DLTs. Our Exabyte drives needed cleaning every 5 full tape passes, and our DLTs go months without cleaning.

I can cat .wavs to /dev/dsp0 or /dev/dsp1 and get a (predictably bad) output. Now, here's the problem. My system came with /dev/dsp a symbolic link to /dev/sndstat and /dev/mixer a symbolic link to /dev/mixerstat. Well, I obviously can't cat audio to the sound status device, and dev/mixerstat doesn't even exist! (MAKEDEV can't make it either). Of course all the sound programs I try to use don't work as a result of this mess. So, what should dev/mixer and dev/dsp be liks to?

The story so far: Sun's CD-ROM of StarOffice 5.1 for Linux does not install directly for FreeBSD. You need to follow Ken McGlothlen's instructions on: http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html with some mods at Stage 1, concerning Linux libraries (see earlier posting). A further mod is required to Ken's instructions for: Stage 3: Finishing the install Do not use the "soffice" script mentioned in the above document, as it will not work for the CD-ROM. You do not need it anyway, since StarOffice 5.1 only installs about 3MB in each user's home directory (not the 160MB that the script was designed to circumvent). That's it. It now works. One curiosity, upon which someone may be able to shed some light: I installed the CD-ROM on my Linux system (I can boot to either RedHat 5.1, or to FreeBSD 3.3). After I run Office5.1 on the Linux system, the characters on the terminals (ALT/CTRL F1, F2,..) are messed up - things like "$" instead of "a", and so on. The only cure is a reboot. It's appears to be a problem with X messing up the video card, or something. I've seen it before on FBSD 2.2.8 when the memory was specified incorrectly in /etc/XF86Config. No longer a problem, but I'd be interested to hear an explanation.

Many of my current setup for : a server is based on their home dir, and changing : them from /usr to something else could be a pain : in the butt... My own solution to this is to create a /home on the root and then mount each partition separately. In /home, I have symbolic links to the actual home directories, which might be /usr/home/* and /usr2/home/*. If you have a lot of users, you would make /home a symbolic link to /usr/home and for users not in /usr/home create a second symbolic link. This avoids running out of inodes on the root partition. The main gotcha to this is that /bin/pwd will show the real path to the home directory and this can be confusing at times. The main advantage to this over vinum and such solutions is that you don't have to dedicate the partitions. I also would think more than twice about setting up /usr with vinum -- it's begging for trouble if something goes wrong....

It's possible that it has recorded the old hostname somewhere in its configuration files and is still using it.

The following command will tell you what your host thinks it's masquerading as: grep ^DM /etc/sendmail.cf If the command returns with no output, then you're not masquerading at all. :-) I suspect that you _will_ find such a matching line, in which case you might get away with editing that line.

Doesn't all the identification details etc come from the header if so is there anywhere the headers settings could be out? In repsonse to the question about the mailer , it's complex, basically the mail goes out from Outlook 2000 through MS Exchange Server 5.5 (and if anyone knows how to get Outlook to send using SMTP WITHOUT going through Exchange please let me know). I've checked all the Outlook and Exchange Settings and they seem to be okay. I have been able to confirm this by using the user's account on the Firewall (with Elm). Thankx.

A few years ago, the power supply in one of my machines blew. Might have sent a spike down the 12V line. Whatever the electrical details, it killed both hard disks (and the tape drive, though not the CD-ROM).

This generally happens on the newfs bit, but some times it happens after extracting some or all distributions. Could this be a hardware problem?

Note that there are two search path sets -- one for ELF and one for AOUT. The controlling variables are ldconfig_paths and ldconfig_paths_aout.

A reboot takes care of this, as do the following command: ldconfig /usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib ldconfig -aout /usr/lib/compat/aout /usr/X11R6/lib/aout \ /usr/local/lib/aout There may be other directories which are merged into the hints database by scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d .

This advice assumes that you mean that you want to block and allow access _per_ _user_. If that's not what you meant, see Marc Schneiders' reply. For login access via telnet, a user needs a valid shell listed in /etc/shells . Ftpd also requires that a user's shell be a valid shell in /etc/shells . So what do you do? :-) The easiest thing to do is add to the /etc/ftpusers the usernames from whom you want to revoke ftp access. This may not be scalable, depending on your requirements. You may want to add the restricted users to a new group (say noftp) and add the entire group to the /etc/ftpusers file as follows: @noftp Ciao, Sheldon.

I'm currently trying to install 3.3-Release on a self-built computer (ABIT BX6 r2/Celeron 400) using ftp over a LAN in my home and am getting a problem with the install program asking for .inf files that don't exist on the freeBSD ftp sites. Specifically, it was asking for Ports.inf when I included the option to install the ports collection. If I don't try to install ports, then I get an error when I get to XFree86, because it looks for Xfnts.inf. Searching the archives came up with a similar problem from way back in 2.2 or something, where the solution was to re-do the install floppies. So I re-did them, making sure to get floppies from the exact same site as the rest of the distribution (ftp5.freebsd.org), and re-ran it, with the same problems. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone give me suggestions on what to try? Below I have detailed my procedure for doing the install. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide! Brad Chapman chapmanb@arches.uga.edu My Install Procedure: Downloaded the entire 3.3-Release directory from ftp5.freebsd.org using a quick ethernet connection that I have access to. Transferred the directory to SuperDisks, and moved it to a Windows 95 computer on my LAN at home (which only has a really slow internet connection if you are wondering why I don't ftp directly). Set up Win95 computer as ftp server using Transsoft's Broker ftp server 3.1. Went through disk changing/kernel stuff with no problems. Got to main install menu. Chose X-Developer. Chose yes on ports, all stuff for X-windows. Chose ftp install, changed options so the login name is anonymous. Set up the ftp install to go to the Win95 ftp server computer on my local LAN. Connected without a problem, started transferring--bin was fine, compat* was fine, src was fine. Then I got my problem once I got to ports. The ftp was closed after the install asked for ports.inf and my Win95 didn't have it. Then the install goes back to the ftp menu to ask for a new place to go. A similar problem happened when I didn't include ports--the connection was closed when the install program asked for Xfnts.inf. ***Please send me an e-mail if you need any more information--I will be happy to supply it!

If you plan to do a lot of work with it, then you might want to have 1.2 Gig, but if all you want is to run X and a few apps, then 850 MB will probably be sufficient.

I have been doing archiving on CD's for some months, and that seems to be working, but, it is a real hassle to go through the motions of tarring/compressing/isoing to write to a cd.... more than should be necessary. What is a reasonable approach to backups via CD's? They are getting cheap enough that it seems like it might be a workable solution in some instances. Are there any good ways to use CD's as ``quasi tape devices'' rather than mountable devices? Something like dumping to a file, then dding the file directly to the CDdevice is what I would like to do. Then if a recovery is needed, restore directly from the CD, like tape. Is that possible?

Good question. Generally, my sense of it is that tape is cheaper, and usually more reliable, than most other solutions. > It seems to me that it's much cheaper, faster, and more reliable to > just buy another hard drive and dedicate it for backups. Well, you need multiple drives, for starters. That can get expensive. IFF you mirror a drive, then that is one thing, but you still need at least two copies for security. I do that on my VAX, where I absolutely must have a live spare clone drive to drop in if I nuke something. So, I keep several cloned bootable drives on the shelf. That is not practical if your file systems change considerably, but, it is practical where a basic install plus addins, or mainly a level 0 dump system is required. Then all I have to tar off to tape is changing addins. That works pretty good, in my case. For tapes, I find that I need to keep multiple copies of both a set of dumps and a set of addins. I use olden QIC tapes and systems, since I bought some 600 of them in surplus one time. Also, they seem to still be the most reliable media that I can find. I have had bad problems with high density tapes, so I stick with low density QIC tapes and they seem to run forever. The only problem with them is that the rubber drive wheels on the tape drives tend to decompose with time, requiring that you retread the drive wheels occasionally (I use slices of rubber air hose). I do think that CD's will probably replace tape down the road, but for now, tapes are still probably the best method of backup. HD's are till too fragile for the handling required, and are too expensive for multiple copies or a full dump cycle, for most folks. > Is there any reasons tapes are a better choice? I can usually take a tape anywhere, if written correctly. Hard drives may not read on some systems of the fs types are markedly different. CD's could be fairly portable, but are a pain to make. Tapes still win out as the least common denominator.

Hi, I'm running 3.3-RELEASE, freshly installed from the WC CDs & plan to go to -stable soon. I say "freshly" because I was running 3.2-RELEASE, "cvsupped" to -stable (RELENG_3, the "stable-supfile"), which was 3.3-stable before "replacment" from CD. I have some questions on ports & packages that so far I can't yet find adequately explained in the Lehey book, 3rd Ed. or whatever online docs I've been able to find... Naturally, pointers to documentation/FAQs are appreciated... :) 1. What is/are the difference(s) between "ports" & "packages?" Sample answer: Ports are made from source, packages are precompiled binaries. 1a. What are the "sources" for the packages? Sample answer: Packages are precompiled (ie. time saving) versions of the respective ports, with a few exceptions such as Netscape. 2. Where do the ports/packages "live" on the CDs? Sample answer: The ports "index" is on CD 1 in the /ports directory; the ports themselves (aka "tarballs") are on CD 4, in the /ports/distfiles directory (anywhere else?). Packages are on CDs 1, 2 & 3, in the /packages directories. Some ports (ie. Kermit, ssh?) are not on the CDs (possibly because of licensing and/or export restrictions), but the makefile still points to the appropriate distribution ftp site. Some packages are not available as source code on the CDs (ie. Netscape), for the same reasons. (It would be nice if this info were somehow noted, perhaps in the README and/or pkg/DESCR?) 3. Since the packages (ports, too?) are spread out over 3 CDs, how do I know which CD to use for installation of a particular package (for example, with /stand/sysinstall)? Suggestion: Somehow(?) enable some kind of prompt for the proper CD? 4. How do dependencies get handled for packages? One thing I have had happen is when I tried to install the "metamail" package (/stand/sysinstall --> Index --> Packages --> All --> metamail), I received "error 1" (I think...). I tried it from the port & it complained about a dependency (xloadimage, IIRC...) I found xloadmimage as a package & installed that & metamail installed fine. Was this a glitch or a feature? :) Another example is Netscape, which needs compat22... Hmmm... It appears that in some cases, a port makefile cannot find all its dependencies... 5. What gets maintained/updated when cvsupping the ports tree? Sample answer?: Everything in /usr/ports except the distfiles. ?? Which means, the indexes & makefiles are updated, which may or may not result in distfiles being or not being on the CD (meaning an ftp, etc...) 5a. If the CD becomes "no longer valid" for a particular port, is that what is indicated by the "cannot find..." message in the make? (Hmmm... How do I know which CD to have mounted? ...) Comment: Looks like there should be some easier way to tell, although I look around on the CDs before I try the make... 6. Compat* libraries (apparently a special case?) CD 1 contains compat 1x, 20, 21 & 22. I installed compat22, in support of Netscape (btw, can or should this be listed/handled somehow as a dependency?) 6a. I notice that the compat* libraries (which are in /usr/src/*) exist only as binaries (gzipped & UUencoded) and are maintained by cvsup (stable-supfile) as such. What happened to source? Sample answer?: Make [build]world can't build anything pre-3.x? (Even though they conceivably come from the source tree(s) as 3.x?) So, the pre-3.x libraries are compiled on older systems as a convenience? 7. Another specific case: GIMP There are 2 versions of GIMP, one "standard" & one with the "I18N" patch/add-on. What is the purpose of that patch? There's nothing in the README or pkg/DESCR...

This is turning out to be interesting. After doing the usual tcpdump, netstat -rn and configuration checking I then unplugged the RJ45. Pulled it out of the server. Not connected. I then went to an independent ISP connection and could still ping the address. My theory is that the IP address has been hijacked by another. Called my cable service supplier and they agreed. So, I setup the FreeBSD box with another IP address - has been stable for 16 hours and put the old IP address on a laptop. Seems to be fine on the laptop - so far atleast. My ISP says that they have not as yet fixed the problem. No real 'for sure' conclusion.

I'm using an IDE drive on a *separate* system as a backup device. I just use "dump ... | gzip -9 | rsh ..." to do backups. Advantages: * It's cheaper than a *good*, high-capacity tape drive. US$230 for a 5400 RPM 27GB IDE drive is a very good price point. [ 5400RPM is good, because (1) you don't need the speed of a 7200RPM drive for backups, and (2) 5400RPM drives run cooler. "Cooler is better", because cooler drives tend to last longer, and because you may have fewer cooling problems if you ever decide to put the IDE drive into a cartridge module for drive swapping. ] For simple home use, a couple of "dump 0"s and a few incrementals are enough. However, if your home backup requirements need more than this, then backing up to hard disks is probably not for you. * It can be as fast as a *good*, high-capacity tape drive. Even with 'gzip -9', I'm getting around 490KB/sec; I recently backed up 8145292K in 16605sec. If I was smart, and used lower compression, I could get higher throughput (but I'd be limited by my 10BT network). If I used a 100BT LAN and was smart about compression, my backup system would probably be faster than a low-end DLT system. * You don't have to play tape swapping games to backup your system. Most (all?), under US$500 (new) DAT drives have an uncompressed capacity of 4GB or less, which is much smaller than an inexpensive IDE drive. Yes, Travan-based drives are cheaper and hold more, but I'm not sure I trust Travan drives. * You can turn off the "backup system" to swap drives. I haven't done this, but it wouldn't be difficult to make the IDE drive swappable. IDE drive modules for swapping are widely available (the non-hot- swappable ones, at least) and are inexpensive. Swapping drives becomes easier if you have a separate drive for root (you might even be able to use picobsd for that). Disadvantages: * If your backup drive crashes, you're screwed. In my case, I care about the data on my main system, and, if the backup drive dies, I just replace it and redo the backups (and pray that none of the disks in my main system crashes in the meantime ;-). I've also thought about using one of the "no-slot" IDE mirroring solutions (RAID 1) from http://www.arcoide.com, but I don't know if it's really worth it *for me*. * If you use your backup system for version control ("help, I need the version of xxx.c that existed on April 1!"), you're probably screwed. You can't keep too many backups on an hard drive. * Off-site backups can be difficult. If your house burns down, you're really screwed. ;-( Still, for "simple home use", an hard disk backup device is often "good enough". I would defintely not use or recommend it for commercial or business purposes, though. -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@sr.hp.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Hewlett-Packard, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.

And I have just checked the page and the pakage its there, so the only thing that I can think its that you didnt have an internet connection at the moment that you tried to compile the port, you must have an internet connection, because the ports tree just have the Makefiles, and patches to make them work, but the ports tree doesnt have the sources, it just tries to fetch them from the internet, or if you have the FreeBSD CD, just copy the file to "/usr/ports/distfiles", and try again. BTW I have just did it and here its the relevant output from version 2.7.2: unix# make >> mrtg-2.7.2.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system. >> Attempting to fetch from http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/pub/.

BTW Check out that all of your Hardware its compatible with FreeBSD (www.freebsd.org). P.S. Just where does exacly hangs, or fails, does it says something like unable to mount root, or any messages at all, it would be nice if you could put in here those messages, that Im sure that at least you get one.

So when the problems occur, it only effects incomming traffic from beyond your cable modem? When the 3.3 box has problems, the 2.2.6 box can still telnet into it?

Did your internet provider explicity and intenionally give you two static IPs?

That sounds like its having problems performing a reverse DNS lookup. Give it time. If its only a reverse lookup problem, it'll add about 2-5 minutes to the startup time of many daemons like sendmail. > Cable modem connected to a hub. Hub has three machines on it. > FreeBSD 3.3 new machine, the one with the problem. > FreeBSD 2.2.6 working perfectly as best as I can tell, also fixed IP > A Mac, with a DHCP connection working normally When the 3.3 box has problems, is it just from outside your LAN or do the Mac and 2.2.6 box also have problems connection to the 3.3 box. If you install and run netatalk on the 3.3 box, can the Mac connect to its AppleShare services (over AppleTalk, not IP) while the 3.3 box is experiencing the problem? Can it connect to its AppleShare-over-IP services while its experiencing the problem? If it can't connect to the AppleShare over AppleTalk services, then its more than an IP problem.

I'm a great fan of FreeBSD, (been using it for 3 years or so) My company is in the process of scaling up our ISP operation to an enormous extent and I want to stick with FreeBSD.

I'll be ordering 15-20 of these so it's important that they are the bee's knees. Any comments?

Simply put, your system is seeing a specific IP (e.g. 192.168.0.2) on your local LAN and then latter seeing that said IP is also in use by someone on your ISP's LAN. The best solution, IMHO, is to change the IP topology of your internal LAN to some other off-net IP scheme. I use 10.1.1.*, subnet 255.255.255.0 for my LAN. The entire 10.*.*.* network is resurved for off-net use and should work just fine for your needs.

In this case, make sure that they're not handing out your static IP via DHCP. If not, then the most likely reason for the problem is someone else on their system who doesn't know how to configure his/her computer or who is trying to get a static IP without paying for it.

Maybe I'm just using it wrong, but I still can't get it to give ound output. Using xmms's esd plugin makes it crash as soon as it tries to play. Likewise, xanim never appears on the screen. It briefly appears in the "top" display, but then leaves the top 10 (or so) processes and the shell doesn't give back a prompt (it continues to sit at "./bin/esddsp xanim ~/docs/pokenom/puff.mpg" waiting for the program to exit). Any ideas? Perhaps I'm doing something incorrectly?

But, when ever 'top' reports a process in 'newbuf', 'getblk' or 'biowr', the system becomes very slow, sometimes for a few seconds. We can't even do a 'ls' properly... Unfortunately the system ends up on that state whenever 'pine' or 'popper' runs on a large mailbox. Of course we can't convince people to use 'maildir'. Since the machine is almost idle - CPU and memory - why does this happen ? Is it a driver/disk problem ? What do those states reported by top ('newbuf', 'getblk', 'biowr') mean ?

It takes a lot of CD-ROMS to back up a even single 9Gb drive; and compression doesn't cut that number all that much. Also I'm not aware of any reasonably priced CD writers with auto-load capabilities to make automated backups feasable.

Even with compression, CD's don't hold much. Of course, if you don't have a lot to back up, this isn't an issue. However, if the data won't fit onto a single CD, plan on babysitting the computer and feeding it disks. * Speed is "decent", but not great (however, it can be great if you take price into account). Unless you have a recent-generation CDR/CDRW, the write speed is, at most, 4X, which is 600KB/sec. It's probably even worse with CDRW, as many drives seem to write CDRW media at a slower speed than CDR. Still, many inexpensive tape drives transfer data at well under 1MB/sec (early DAT drives, for example, transfer data at 150KB/sec), and so CD's aren't that bad. * Multi-disk backups are problematic. Unless you write your own backup software, I think you have to use split(1) to slice'n dice the output from dump/tar, and then write the resulting files to CDs. You basically need lots of free disk space, to use as a staging area. * If you're environmentally conscious, writing backups to CDRs (as opposed to CDRWs) is environmentally hostile. ;-) > I have been doing archiving on CD's for some months, and that seems > to be working, but, it is a real hassle to go through the motions of > tarring/compressing/isoing to write to a cd.... more than should be > necessary.

What's wrong with mounting? It's easy to do. You can make a bootable FreeBSD floppy with the CDROM driver on it (I think the fixit floppy already has it). In that case, you can just store the backup as a file on the CDROM. When you need to restore, you boot from the floppy, mount the CDROM, and restore.

The network comprises a number of Windows machines linked to a FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE box configured as a gateway. Browsers on the windows side can request a URL. If the domain is not recognised by the local DNS, a dial-out is initiated and the IP address retrieved. Named.run shows the correct IP address being returned to the client. The browser also shows the status message "Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the correct IP address), but nothing happens and the request times out. How is it that the IP address is returned to the client, but web pages are not being served? No firewall has been implemented as yet, so that's not the problem, nor has ppp been configured to filter packets. Netscape running on the FreeBSD box has no trouble connecting to the net, nor with reading/sending mail... Any clues, anyone?

The steps I have taken so far are to create a suitable partition on the single 2gb IDE hard-drive, and go through the twin-floppy boot / installation procedure (from 2 formatted floppies prepared with the fdimage commands) most of the way through. Everything seems fine, through the hardware configuration screen, (deleting unwanted scsi / network /other adaptors, and so on), then into the create partition editor screen. I have a 800mb partition set aside for Freebsd, which I split using the auto settings for /, /swap, /var, and /usr (giving a split of 40mb, 60 mb, 20mb, and some 600mb, approx.) the downloaded install file set is located in what appears to be the correct location on drive C:, \Freebsd\bin, \floppies, and \manpages, but after accepting all the settings and clicking "ok" to go ahead on the final screen, an error occurs, and the process announces that it was "unable to extract ...from ..", and has halted. The last attempted action before this is "extracting ... from ..." (i can try and provide exact wording if necessary). there is a message saying "attempt retry, yes or no ?", but the results never improve on any amount of retries. The install routine then advises to remove floppies from drives, and that pressing ok will reboot. It seems a pity to get stuck with the installation at what would appear to be the very last stage, but so far the system has not booted successfully into freebsd after the above procedure. The system appears otherwise to be functioning normally, ie. the fips disk partitioning action was successful, on a hardware boot-up, the freebsd boot selection menu (F1 -DOS, F2 - FreeBSD) appears, and responds correctly, launching Windows 95 if dos is selected, and attempting to boot freebsd if F2 is selected. The prompt which appears on attempted freebsd boot is: ___ /i386 boot: wd__ ( 1,a) /kernel (where ___ signifies wording which I cannot exactly remember). I have typed in a variety of commands at this prompt, but the only response is some form of echo of the command entered, often preceded by the word no, eg. "no dev", or "no man found", etc ... One question which springs to my mind with this problem is how much control over transfer from the DOS partition of the hdd to the freebsd slice can be expected, beyond ensuring the installation files are in the correct directories. Any advice about what to do next would be greatly appreciated. yours sincerely Jean-Mark Dupoux ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The short reactions to what you say are: No, no, and no. The way you do backups depends on how much you value your data, and how fast you want your data to be available after a failure. (Failure meaning hardware errors, software bugs and human errors , as well as various disasters that do not have a direct relation to your computer system like war, theft or natural disasters.) Choosing a backup system and backup procedure is a matter of how fast, and how much, you want your data to be available. You can image that in a very critical system like an AWACS plane in combat or a nuclear power plant or an airline reservation system, you would want your most recent data available as soon as possible. In most professional environments, people hedge their bets: 1.They build a second, completely seperate, out-of-the way computer system to replace/mirror the first. A very expensive option. Nevertheless essential for banks, stock exchanges, military systems etc... 2.They use a RAID(5) system for single harddisk failures. Very common. 3.They make backups to restore accidentally removed files. (human error is the most common reason for restore operations) An often underestimated and overlooked problem. No RAID protects against 'rm -rf /' ..........) 4.They keep enough backup media to be able to recover from (usually human) failures discovered after a period of time longer than one backup cycle. 5.They move their backups offsite to be able to deal with big failures like fire, theft, riots, tornadoes, whatever. If you make your 'backups' to a single harddisk inside your computer, you basically protect yourself against single harddisk failure and early discovered accidental removal of files. If you can live with that, fine. If not, think about a better backup system. Backups are a form of disaster recovery, and more a matter of following sensible(!) procedures than of spending money. In a commercial system, only making daily backups to another harddisk is, in my view, never an option. If your critical data fits on a floppy disk, it can make more sense to make a daily copy to a floppy disk than to buy a DLT tape robot. You keep all floppy disks for a month, and then you put them in a shoebox, and give them your brother who lives a 100 km./miles away. Backups are a form of insurance. If you want better coverage, you pay more. (Or you expend more effort.) > Is there any reasons tapes are a better choice? In a home/personal environment, you might very well get away with your installation CDROMs and a few floppy disks with copies of local your local configuration files in /etc, /usr/local/etc and the like. In a commercial environment, there are a lot of reasons: If you want to archive files, there is simply no way around removable media. Harddisk are too expensive. At this moment, tapes (including collections of tapes like the tape magazines in an HP 1553 autoloader) can contain more data than all single harddisks. If your critical data fills a RAID-array, nothing but a tape magazine will take the amount of data (And will be as easily replacable. In my company we run a Sun E450 with 10x4 GB harddisks...) Note: If you want to take your backups off-site, nothing but removable media is an option. You cannot remove a harddisk without shutting down the whole system. In backup procedures, it is imperative that backups can run without human intervention. Backup procedures that need human intervention are very vunerable, especially in small/medium business environments. (Will you change the harddisk for a weekly backup at Friday 21:00 ? Every Friday ? Really ? You still with me ? Now will you shut down the system and remove the harddisks and restart your system ??) With tapes and with CD-ROMs and floppy disks etc., the medium is seperated from the drive. This makes tapes and CD-ROMs cheaper than harddisks and, more importantly, easier to seperate from the drive. You can easily store an arbitrary amount of media and a few tape/CD/DVD drives at a remote location. A 12 GB tape is still cheaper (and a lot smaller, and more shock resistant) than a 12 GB Harddisk. In short: If you use your system in a personal environment, your mileage may vary. At home, I make backups of my most important config files every day (all right most.., all right usally, .......) Getting a -stable system back on track usually takes eight hours for me. I have the habit of frequently wiping one of my personal systems to practice restores. With the backups of the config files it is a pain. Without the backups it is a major pain. In a commercial environment, there is no way around removable media. The best and cheapest removable media are tapes. Preferrably enough media to allow restores of at least a month old, and with some fairly recent media a good way offsite. Sorry for the long reply. I still have some bruises from some bad crashes. =========================================================================== Get off the keyboard you furry feline !

The AnswerMan article that I found only picks up after a successful modem installation; is that the one (from August) that you referred to? As for the external modem, I've already kicked myself many a time for not having picked one of those up instead of the card. (Heck, even Windows 95 didn't want to recognize it at first. The old-fashioned configuration method (DIP switches) was a lot simpler to manage than "Plug and Play." Given all the horror stories I've heard and read (not to mention, "experienced") about pnp's failures, what a horrendous specification pnp must be... The specification should have mandated configuration via BIOS upon booting (with configs stored in EEPROMS, static RAM, or whatever...), with alterations by software (including OS's) allowed (via BIOS interrupts, of course), but unnecessary. This would have ensured seamless integration of pnp hardware into any OS -- including the ones from Redmond. ;-) ) Anyway, an external modem isn't in the budget right now (not even the ones I've seen advo'd for around $80), so I'd really like to try to get this internal Zoom ComStar working. I looked at Zoom's web site and saw some info there that may indicate it won't work, but I'm not sure. (They mentioned a ComStar, but the article was much older than my modem.) I sent them a rundown of my problem and a request for some guidance (if only to tell me I'm s.o.l.) and am awaiting their reply. One thing I did ask them -- and I'd like to ask anyone who has some knowledge -- is, since FreeBSD is consistently finding the modem as sio4 upon booting, might an alteration to my kernel configuration be able to pick it up and let me access it at cuaa4? I was thinking along the lines of putting a line like, "device sio4 at isa? port ____ tty flags 0x____" in my config file, rebuilding the kernel, doing a MAKEDEV cuaa4....... Might something like that work?

(2) Disable both of your com ports (this always made it easier to see what was happening... (3) Make sure your kernel has the following controller pnp0 From GENERIC on 3.3-STABLE # Serial (COM) ports device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" flags 0x10 tty irq 4 device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 device sio2 at isa? disable port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 device sio3 at isa? disable port "IO_COM4" tty irq 9 Change the last two to : # Serial (COM) ports device sio2 at isa? port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 device sio3 at isa? port "IO_COM4" tty irq 9 or possibly even: device sio2 at isa? port "IO_COM3" tty irq? device sio3 at isa? port "IO_COM4" tty irq? (I can't remember if this was/is allowed...) Again, apologies if this is just a rehash of what you already been doing, but this did work for me on a number of systems and a range of cheap modems.

All the old drivers come under a section of text The following drivers were supported under the old SCSI subsystem, but are NOT YET supported under the new CAM SCSI subsystem: and as the old SCSI system isn't supported, so aren't the drivers. I still think the wording is bad, as it's possible to misinterpret when checking if your cards are supported. But it's correct and I was told so on -stable.

Did you rm -rf /compat/linux before > installing linux_base-5.2? What is your FreeBSD version? etc etc etc > Arrgh! I've just had a bad thought. Did I really need to install linux_base at all? My system was originally built clean (i.e. not installed over a previous version of FreeBSD) from the 3.1 CDs. I included Linux support/emulation when I installed. Gimp, acroread, WP, Netscape all worked fine, now none of them work. A couple of weeks ago I cvsup'd to 3.3-STABLE. The Linux programs still all worked. Did I need to install linux_base to make Star Office work? I only installed it because I was following the instructions at http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html that someone posted. Is linux_base only meant for systems which don't already have Linux support installed and therefore I've just trashed a perfectly good working system? After, Star Office is just another Linux program. > -- > Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl > SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ > The FreeBSD project mailto:marcel@FreeBSD.org -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.

I Have a Compaq Proliant 800, with 2 SCSI Disks, and it was working fine under NT, but when I tried to install FreeBSD on it, it detected all the devices, but it timed out the Disks, I had to play around with the SCSI IDs, in order to make them work, and the server has worked great since then.

Yes, local IP addressing appears to be working OK. I can ping, scan, traceroute from any machine to all other machines by name or by IP address. SAMBA mounts and printer sharing is fine, so all machines appear to know about each other. I can also telnet and ftp to the FreeBSD box via windows telnet /dos screens by specifying machine name or machine.domain.name or dotted quad IP address. In telnet I can do all the usual stuff at the shell prompt. No, not quit, ...just checked again. I can ftp to host by specifying machine name or IP address, but if I add the domain suffix I get connection refused. I have to add a closing stop to get a connection as in: ftp> open mymachinename.my.domain. ^ > Do you have natd running on the gateway No, because I thought ppp in -alias mode took care of this. Didn't think I needed nat because ftp / telnet / samba all work OK. The windows machines have entries for the other hosts in c:\windows\hosts (as a fallback), but DNS is available also and appears to work OK. Anyway, I do have the -alias switch active. > ...or the ppp nat option enabled? Jason, thanks for your reply.

Talk to Jörg Schilling if you want to learn just what a mess the tar format is. (If I wanted to use a tar-like program for backup purposes, I'd use cpio or pax. The SVR4 cpio format doesn't have the device and pathname limitations of the tar one, and it is reasonably portable, being understood by SVR4 cpio, BSD pax, and GNU cpio.) tar has difficulties handling sparse files (-S works pretty well but makes the archive non-portable of course), no built-in buffering, it touches the access time of all files, and the archive has no central index. > > tar as shipped with FreeBSD can't backup all devices in /dev. > Correct.

This is -CURRENT from a month ago: naddy@bigeye[~] tar -cf /dev/null -C / dev tar: dev/rsa0.ctl: minor number too large; not dumped It's my understanding that the minor number field in the GNU tar format is simply insufficiently sized to accommodate all possible FreeBSD device numbers. > > Customarily tapes are rewound at the end of the backup. > > That depends on what you ask for.

Second, if I don't feel like updating the clock every second or two, why bother with the seconds field at all. Quite a few other variations I could think of. -- Crist J.

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 just installed the FreeBSD release 3.3 and have been trying to get my sound to work right. I have an ESS 1688 card (which is an SB Pro clone). The OSS driver for it does work, but I'd rather have kernel support without having to reload the sound driver every 3 hours. So, I read a few readmes and found out the proper sound card lines in the config file. It does work using sb0, but any mp3's played with that sound real fuzzy and soft. From going through the mailing list archives, it appears I have to use the pcm0 device to get it working properly, yet when I try this option in the kernel config file the actual compiling of the kernel fails with too many errors to send in this email, but some of there are here: loading kernel dmabuf.o: In function `dsp_wr_dmaupdate': dmabuf.o(.text+0x68): multiple definition of `dsp_wr_dmaupdate' dmabuf.o(.text+0x68): first defined here dmabuf.o: In function `dsp_wrintr': dmabuf.o(.text+0xa8): multiple definition of `dsp_wrintr' dev_table.o: In function `start_services': dev_table.o(.text+0x56): undefined reference to `DMAbuf_init' soundcard.o: In function `sndpoll': soundcard.o(.text+0x2f7): undefined reference to `MIDIbuf_poll' soundcard.o: In function `sndattach': soundcard.o(.text+0x629): undefined reference to `DMAbuf_init' sound_switch.o: In function `sound_read_sw': sound_switch.o(.text+0x52d): undefined reference to `MIDIbuf_read' audio.o: In function `set_format': audio.o(.text+0x4b): undefined reference to `DMAbuf_ioctl' audio.o: In function `audio_open': sequencer.o: In function `seq_local_event': sequencer.o(.text+0xfa9): undefined reference to `DMAbuf_start_devices' *** Error code 1 Stop. The sb0 line of: device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 does compile fine, but again, everything sounds horrible.

The only place the ldconfig_paths are defined is in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. I've also tried the commands on the command line but ld still does not look into /usr/local/lib. For example, if I have a library called libfoo.a and resides in /usr/local/lib. Doing a 'gcc bar.c -lfoo' will return the message '/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot open -lfoo: No such file or directory'. However, if I give gcc the -L/usr/local/lib options, then all goes fine. The problem happens both on 3.1 and 3.2 but not on 2.6 though.

What is > > normal procedure in a situation such as this? I was faced with the same problem... Here is what I did: I installed Peer Web Services on my NTWS, added a login account. Next, I created a script that tars certain directories on my BSD box. After the tarring is complete, another small script is called that logs into the NT box and "puts" the tarball there where my DAT then backs it up. Notice, I add the tar routing to /etc/periodic/daily so that it run each night at 2:00 am - an the file name is thus: andrea.'date +%m%d%y'.tgz Which is: andrea.101199.tgz Yes - the permissions are kept... Email me if you want a finer walk through including the scripts I have written. This works well for me even though I have since put a DAT on my BSD box. Hope this helps...

After, Star Office is just another Linux program. No, I installed linux_base on a 3.3-RELEASE system which was upgraded from 2.2.8. I needed to put directory names into /compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf and run /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig (which appears to simply update the file /compat/linux/etc/ld.so.cache) when installing StarOffice. Packages such as StarOffice now seem to come with their own lib directories in their own tree. Maybe the vanilla Linux install puts the directories into the ld.so.conf file and runs ldconfig? Anyway, I did this for StarOffice. Is is it possible that the version of Netscape that you are using has the same scheme - that is, its own lib directory which must be installed in this way?

Hmm, sure I've run it as root before. Maybe it's to do with having just u/g Xfree to 3.3.5.

I currently own 5 Machines, 3 Windows 98 Machines, 1 Windows NT Server 4.0, and 1 FreeBSD 3.3 Machine I Have 2 Hubs a Linksys 10 /100 autosensing 5 port hub. and a Netgear 100 hub. All machines have 10 / 100 cards The 3 windows 98 machines have Static ip address's setup on them that i purchased from my cable modem provider. So all 3 of them can connect to the internet with ease What i would like to do is give FreeBSD 1 static ip address and have it connect The nt machine, and 1 windows 98 machine to the internet. I only have one network card in the freebsd machine.. I would like to keep it that way, as i'm out of cable and nics to install. I would also like the windows machines to be able to see the freebsd machine on the network.... I.e. Telnet into if i want to ect.. Now my problem.. I can't figure out if i need Ip aliasing, i think i do since i have only 1 nic in the freebsd machine.. And NATD is very confusing to setup for me its almost like reading greek So basically if i can telnet into FreeBSD from any of my other machines on the network I'd be a happy camper.. I'm using 192.168.68.0 for my internal ip addressing. and my cable provider has issued 24.*.*.* for my 3 purchased ip addresses. So my NT Machine is using 192.168.68.1 and FreeBSD isn't setup yet as i'm not sure if i need to set it as 192.168.68.0 and then ALIAS 24.*.*.* or what.. If someone can give me a website or a comprehensive run down on what needs to be installed and setup.. And or instuctions on using NATD, and IPALIAS Would be most appreciative. Also i'm sure i'll have to setup routes and stuff.. Argh its all so confusing where to start and what to do..

I tried first doing this through simple symlinks, but sendmail reorts invalid format, so after a bit of reading I discovered that having procmail as a local mailer enables it. I compiled and installed (making the necessary changes to authenticate.c), and had a few problems that were corrected with the enclosed /usr/local/etc/procmailrc My problem is this:According to ALL the documentation, it's okay to create symlinks in /var/mail so that things like pine function right without recompilation.

Also, it doesn't look like you've tried to do anything on the net. Try pinging an external IP, or something that'll ask for an ip not on your lan. The point of auto is that it wont dial until it needs to. Then if it ever disconnects it should reconnect when you need it again. Hope that solves any problem you might have, RTFM next time, it's a wonderful resource.

It tells you to use the -g option, explains what it does, and tells you what to do if you don't have enough space. What it doesn't do is tell you to strip the kernel if you don't have space for the debug kernel in the root file system. To do this, just before 'make install', do: # cp kernel kernel.debug (save the debug version in case you have problems) # strip -g kernel (remove the debug symbols) In FreeBSD 4.0, this won't be necessary. 'make install' will do these steps automatically, and if you want to install the debug version you'll need to say 'make install.debug'. I recommend to keep the debug symbols because in the unlikely event of a panic, you'll need this information to analyse the problem. Debug kernels are no slower than normal kernels; they just contain more information about the sources. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

I If I may be so bold, I'd really recommend that you scrap up a $15 ethernet card from somewhere and a $3 catagory 5 patch cable. It'll make life easier, IMHO, to have the FreeBSD box act as a router/gateway for the computers that you want it to serve dynamic IPs to.

I would like to keep it that way, Bzzzztttt... while in theory it may be possible to do it with just one nic, in practice the various issues are way too complex, and back when I was trying to set it up myself I was never able to get any response from anyone who did get it working. The universal response I received was, "Just get another NIC," which turned out to be excellent advice. > I would also like the windows machines to be able to see > the freebsd > machine on the network....

Argh its all so > confusing where to start > and what to do.. Actually no, you don't have to set up routes. The following _should_ work, but your setup is a lot more complex than mine. 1. Arrange the FreeBSD machine and the two static IP'ed windows machines on one hub, with the cable modem as the uplink. Set up all the normal stuff on your freebsd machine, and make sure that all 3 machines can talk to the world, and each other. 2. Start the setup process for nat on the freebsd box. Compile support for your new nic into the kernel (if needed) along with support for ipfirewall. Make sure that you include the ipfirewall divert option. Make gateway_enable="YES" in your /etc/rc.conf.local, along with the natd_interface/enable/flags options as appropriate. You should also add a line to your rc.conf.local to configure your new nic as the inside interface. I would use 192.168.68.1 for _that_ interface, since you're going to make it a gateway. About the only flag you should need for natd is the -n flag to specify which interface to run on. Reboot. 3. Once the freebsd machine is back up and you've confirmed that everything is running as it should be, plug the other hub into your inside interface nic and start configuring the other windows machines. You want to set them up with IP addresses on the same subnet, using 192.168.68.1 as their gateway, and either run named on your gateway machine or put the IP of your ISP's nameserver in the windows config. One additional step that I had to do to get it all working was to edit the hosts file on the freebsd machine and the windows machines with everyone's IP address and hostname. Without that info I could ping from inside but that was about all. In windows the file is C:\Windows\HOSTS. After you edit it your editor will try to rename it HOSTS.txt, which doesn't help you, so watch out for that and change the name back if you have to. That _should_ be all you need to do to get it to work. I really need to write this up and stick it on my dhcp web page. If you have to do more than I've mentioned here, please write me privately with the details and I'll try to hammer this into something more elaborate. -- "Stop it, I'm gettin' misty." - Mel Gibson as Porter, "Payback" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Oct 11 21:24:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pop3-3.enteract.com (pop3-3.enteract.com [207.229.143.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4570C14FE4 for ; Mon, 11 Oct 1999 21:24:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dscheidt@enteract.com) Received: (qmail 7470 invoked from network); 12 Oct 1999 04:24:08 -0000 Received: from shell-2.enteract.com (dscheidt@207.229.143.41) by pop3-3.enteract.com with SMTP; 12 Oct 1999 04:24:08 -0000 Date: Mon, 11 Oct 1999 23:24:08 -0500 (CDT) From: David Scheidt To: Greg Lehey Cc: Christian Weisgerber , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Why use tape for backups?

Use them in multiple drives, and their longivity and reliability seems to fall off the charts. I wouldn't miss them if they were to fall off the earth tomorrow. (Aside from all the data I have one them, of course.) DDS-3 is better, but I don't have enough long term experience with it to know how much. Even on the machines I have with DDS-3 drives, I still have to use them in DDS-1 mode, because we have to read the tape on any of our machines.

Only things you've probably already tried, and haven't helped ... like checking the machines BIOS boot choice, and whether the DPT's configuration has any boot options. It occurs to me that IBM may have wired down the boot sequence in such a way that an Adaptec would work, but anything else won't be found. An alternative, though not overly attractive, option is to look at whether you can concoct a boot floppy with the kernel you want, wired to find everything on the DPT's volumes. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I want to set up a special sendmail server configuration but so far have not been successful. I hope someone might be able to give me some tips here or some suitable sendmail configuration for a similar setup. What I am trying to do is set up sendmail on a dual homed host to receive and send mail from the outside world. It relays all incoming mail to a mail server on the internal network. The server on the internal network relays all outgoing mail to it for routing to the outside world. The main reason for this is take advantage of anti-spam features in sendmail and for security for the internal mail server. I think this is a common setup although I might not have described it in the usual way. The public domain name is mydomain.com.au. The external mail server is mailhost.mydomain.com.au. The internal network domain name is internal. The internal mail server is mailhub.internal. There are separate DNS servers for internal and external domain queries. I tried defining MAIL_HUB in the sendmail m4 config file, based on the FreeBSD default freebsd.mc but it did not work. I get error messages from sendmail when I receive mail from outside: SYSERR(root): MX list for mydomain.com.au points back to mailhost.mydomain.com.au and the following when mail is received from the outside world: Oct 12 13:23:39 mailhost sendmail[6230]: NAA06228: to=, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, relay=mydomain.com.au., stat=Local configuration error Oct 12 13:23:39 mailhost sendmail[6230]: NAA06228: NAA06230: DSN: Local configuration error I thought this must be due to problems with MX records and definition of class "w" so I checked these. There is a single MX record for mydomain.com.au pointing to mailhost.mydomain.com.au. /etc/mail/sendmail.cw contains entry for mailhost.mydomain.com.au. When sendmail starts up it correctly recognises its hostname, domain and node as mailhost.mydomain.com.au, mydomain.com.au, mailhost respectively. If I define SMART_HOST instead then incoming mail works perfectly but that causes problems with outgoing mail. I.e. Unroutable mail causes a mail loop.

But I can tell you that I successfully built Bind 8.2.1 on FreeBSD 3.3 release without any problems. The best I can do is tell you what I did and how it differs from what you did. 1) Target machine was an old P100 with limited disk space, so I don't have ports installed. I followed directions in The Complete FreeBSD book to unpack the specific package from the tarball on the CD. I also had to unpack the Mk package, that's not stated clearly. 2) I used the script command ahead of time, so I now have a better record of what happened. This is what allows me to tell you what I did. 3) I allowed the make procedure to FTP the files directly from ftp.isc.org 4) I have a firewall installed (in fact the FreeBSD machine IS my firewall machine) so I had to add setenv FTP_PASSIVE_MODE yes before I typed make. I also had to add a $fwcmd rule to allow FTP from ftp.isc.org to me. 5) my "diffs" didn't try to patch as much as yours did. In particular my diffs didn't try to patch the getpwent.c file that yours failed with. I think that either the ports tarball you are using is out of date or the starting src files are. Here is the relevant snippet from my efforts: ===> Extracting for bind-8.2.1 >> Checksum OK for bind-src.tar.gz. >> Checksum OK for bind-doc.tar.gz. ===> Patching for bind-8.2.1 ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for bind-8.2.1 Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me... The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |--- src/port/freebsd/Makefile.set.orig Mon Jun 16 23:30:35 1997 |+++ src/port/freebsd/Makefile.set Tue Nov 25 18:51:41 1997 -------------------------- Patching file src/port/freebsd/Makefile.set using Plan A...

Hunk #1 succeeded at 52. Hunk #2 succeeded at 105. done ===> Configuring for bind-8.2.1 ===> Building for bind-8.2.1 6) You are being hopelessly optimistic by de-configuring named in your rc.conf and then rebooting. It is an unfortunate fact that this version of bind installs itself into /usr/local and so won't overwrite existing binaries. Someone on this list responded to my complaint about where the files were put by telling me: To start the new named, add the following to /etc/rc.conf.local: named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named" named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf -u bind -g bind" named_enable="YES" Regards ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Udo Schweigert || Voice : +49 89 636 42170 Siemens AG, Siemens CERT || Fax : +49 89 636 41166 ZT IK 3 || email : Udo.Schweigert@mchp.siemens.de D-81730 Muenchen / Germany || : ust@cert.siemens.de 7) The advice given in #6 makes a lot of sense and is less work. But I chose to not follow it, because it bugs me that all the old binaries were lying around and I had to be careful about path to avoid the old ones. So in /var/db there is a log of what files were added. I found all the old binaries and moved them to *.old. Eg, I now have a /usr/sbin/named.old and /usr/local/sbin/named. I haven't updated the manuals this way yet, because it's not immediately obvious that the latest port has all the latest manuals. For example, when I diffed them I saw some typos fixed in the old version but not in the new. 8) If you don't set the -c flag as shown in item #6 you will need to create /etc/named.conf instead as that is the compiled default, which differs from the old version. 9) I actually typed make make install make post-install I divined this last step from perusing the makefile. It seems to do some cleanup and some additional "install". I'm not sure if it's needed or if I made things worse, but I did it anyway. I didn't see any documentation about what that step does. 10) This is the most important part. The old bind 8.1.2 that comes with FreeBSD 3.3 Release seemed to occasionally ignore requests from my internal net. It would see the request from the internal net, ask the outside world (forward only), see the response, and then forget to tell the internal net until 5 seconds later when internal net timed out and asked again. The new bind 8.2.1 doesn't have this bug and has been wonderful. Hope this helps.

Having done alittle more digging I find that I cannot traceroute (tracert in wins) beyong the local network. I have ppp with the -alias flag set. After connecting the FreeBSD box to the net I get the ISP-assigned IP addresses substituted for the 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 faked IP addresses set in ppp.conf: tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1500 inet 212.56.123.197 --> 195.66.129.122 netmask 0xffff00 or occasionally: tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1500 inet 212.56.111.212 --> 255.255.255.255 netmask 0xffffff inet 212.56.111.201 --> 192.168.53.110 netmask 0xffff00 I can ping & traceroute the world from FreeBSD, but not from any windows clients. Curiously, if I traceroute one of the IP-assigned addresses from windows, I get: c:\> tracert 212.56.111.201 Tracing route to 212.56.111.201 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 1ms 1ms 1ms 212.56.111.201 Trace complete c:\> It seems as though tracert is able to resolve the IP address via the FreeBSD box, but the FReeBSD box is all it sees and reports a single hop. I have gateway enable="YES" in rc.conf; ppp is in -alias mode; no fireall configured; natd not running because ppp is in -alias mode. I have been through the various configurations many times, but cannot spot anyting obviously wrong. Any suggestions?

As soon as I upgraded to 3.3, the whole thing broke. Now, only staroffice still runs - with its own set of libraries. Note: I didn't upgrade linux_base, I upgraded the base system! In the meantime I did - "make world" to 3.3-STABLE, - pkg_delete'd all packages with linux dependencies and linux support itself - make deinstall of all ports with linux dependencies - deleted /usr/compat/linux as a whole! - reinstalled linux_base 5.2 - built a kernel with "options LKM" and "options LINUX" - just in case. Still no go. I get coredumps all over the place. I friend of mine just installed a clean 3.3 from CD. I asked him to test acroread and it works beautyfully! So I suspect, that there's still someting left from 3.1 in the system, that crashes Linux support.

This would be easier to answer if you mentioned which version of FreeBSD you are using. :-) You need to boot into single-user mode. This allows you to specify which shell you want root to use. Then you need to mount your filesystems and use vipw or chsh to change your root shell. To boot into single-user mode: 3.1-RELEASE and earlier: At the boot prompt, type ``-s'' and press enter. 3.2-RELEASE or later: At the boot prompt, type ``boot -s'' and press enter. To mount your filesystems: mount -a To change root's shell: Either vipw or chsh Ciao, Sheldon.

Yes. :-( It's a pity you only found out now, because it'll probably be difficult to remember whether you had hardware problems at the time or were playing with new and exciting kernel options. ;-) Later, Sheldon.

Please see my comments throughout the following text. BTW I have also raised another thread "Traceroute problems via Gateway" because I thought this thread was dead. If I cannot ping/traceroute the outside world, then there's no way I am going to be able to get wins clients to connect to the net.

That works > great for me. I have set up a local DNS and it appears (90+% confidence) to be working OK. From within FreeBSD I can do nslookups to local network with correct responses and no dial-outs. With nslookups to remote hosts I get spontaneous dialout and correct responses. The only problem has been with sendmail (see below) and netscape spontaneously dialing out. Netscape wanted to phone home (home.netscape.com, home6.netscape.com, internic.net) and messenger wanted to do a lookup on mail.force9.net and usenet.force9.net) so these 5 entries were placed in /etc/hosts because I didn't want to create more primary DNS zones (besides which, I wasn't sure my local DNS wouldn't try to become authoritative for genuine internet domains). Since then netscape has worked OK and no unexpected dialouts. > > > Sendmail - still trying to access fake 10.0.0.1 address Sorry, this should have been the 10.0.0.2 corresponding to: aset ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.255 0.0.0.0 in ppp.conf... > > mark the smtp mailer as expensive in your local sendmail.cf.

I discovered an article in the archives from Bruce Albrecht regarding sendmail dialouts. This involved forcibly restoring the back to 10.0.0.2 in ppp.linkdown and adding 10.0.0.2 to the DNS. I ran this by Brian Somers and he thought it would work OK. I implemented this and sendmail no longer dials out at 2pm. Aparrently others have tried other solutions to this problem, but Bruce's method involves no reconfiguration of sendmail. > > > Apache 1.3.6 (using name-virtual hosting) - works fine from within > > FreeBSD but wins clients can't yet access > > for me it works. I think the problem is the DNS lookup. The local DNS > server may solve this problem. Final comment on DNS. I said I was 90+% confident it is configured OK. The reason I am not so sure this morning is that upon inspecting the DNS logs from the tracert session on windows I discovered the following incorrect lookup: req: nlookup(MAIL\.FORCE9\.NET\100.at.home) id 196 type=1 class=1 req: found 'MAIL\.FORCE9\.NET\100.at.home' as 'at.home' (cname=0) send_msg -> [192.168.120.103].137 fd=20 id=196 size=97 But I also discovered: req: nlookup(mail.force9.net) id 2 type=1 class=1 req: found 'mail.force9.net' as 'force9.net' (cname=0) ns_req: answer -> [192.168.120.103].1128 (UDP 20) id=2 The former lookup is obviously from the windows client (and indeed the windows client correctly reports the destination IP address), so the DNS information is being passed backed to windows. But it seems the other packets never get there. So tracert, ping, browser apps always time out. So you might be right about the problem being with DNS.

I'm sure if you searched the hardware/scsi/questions mailing list archives you would find lots of references to this not being supported under CAM (the new SCSI subsystem that came in with 3.0). Despite the notes on the 3.2 CD-ROM set, I don't think that it is supported under 3.2, as I've just had a look around the kernel source tree of my recently installed 3.2 system, and while there appears to be a Tekram DC-390 (uses 53c974 apparently) driver - scsiiom.c in scsi/ - it appears to be for <3.0 kernels... :-( I have a vague recollection of Jordan mentioning that there should be a somewhat rough but mostly functional driver in 3.3. Apart from trying to confirm this via searching the above mentioned mailing lists, you should try just downloading the 3.3 kernel and mfsroot floppy images and seeing whether it is recognised. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

So the obvious question is _why_ is the user's home directory not writable to the user? You're the only person who can answer this. :-) Possible answers are: 1) You selected a read-only filesystem for the user's home directory. Don't do that. :-) 2) You selected an invalid home directory for the user. Unlikely, but make sure that the home directory exists. You can do this by searching the file /etc/passwd for the username: grep ^username: /etc/passwd e.g.: grep ^sheldonh: /etc/passwd sheldonh:*:1000:0:Sheldon Hearn:/home/sheldonh:/usr/local/bin/bash Check the second-last field. You can check the permissions of your user's home directory with this command: ls -ld /path/to/home/directory e.g.: ls -ld /home/sheldonh drwxr-xr-x 21 sheldonh wheel 2048 Oct 12 14:06 /home/sheldonh > to change this manually from root? As root, you can change the user's home directory with the ``chpass'' command: chpass username Ciao, Sheldon.

You need to add to /etc/mail/sendmail.cw all the names of this machine that will be used for e-mail for that config. This may not fit in with your plans, but you might consider not using sendmail, but instead separating out the tasks of receiving e-mail from a network connection and the actual delivery.

Then a setup menu will come up and you need to partition you hd, select the mount points, allthough freebsd can do that automatically for you, by selecting "A" I believe. Then you need to select whether or not you need a boot manager. 5) Select your distribution media, which I recommend all and also the ports collection. You will need the ports to install Apache 1.3.9. 6) Select the ftp site and then you want to committ to the install. It will ask you if you are sure, select yes and then cross your fingers.

You need to investigate ftpd's chroot capability. You can either add users to /etc/ftpchroot, add their group to that file or assign a login class to them and add the ftp-chroot capability to that class in /etc/login.conf . Ciao, Sheldon.

FreeBSD comes with Sendmail, which supports the ETRN command. Whenever something connects to your SMTP port and sends EHLO axl.noc.iafrica.com ETRN @axl.noc.iafrica.com your sendmail daemon will do a queue run for the axl.noc.iafrica.com domain. Ciao, Sheldon.

I have a SB Live which isn't supported in FBSD. I'd like to throw an old SB AWE32 into my box also, and config FBSD to use it. I think I have all the info on how to do that, my question: How do I stop Win98 (I know, wrong mailing list, but someone here must have run into a similar problem) from trying to autoinstall drivers for the AWE32? I'd like Win98 to ignore the AWE32, and then when I boot into FBSD, use the AWE32 for sound. any suggetions or advice appreciated.

Everything on the computer is working now except my SCSI controller. Adaptec 2930cu PCI I have 'controller ahc0' as a kernel compile option but the handbook says this is for: Adaptec 274x/284x/294x It only has a zip drive hooked up to it but that's what I use to back up my source code...so I'd like it to be functional. Question: If I upgrade to 3.3 Release would there be a better chance of getting it working? I've watched this list for a little while so that I know that I shouldn't suggest running a development release. I'll keep digging in the manuals.

Very true, and one reason for serious consideration of a CD as a potential backup medium, if your average data store AFTER a level 0 backup is less than a CD, OR, you can archive essential files off to CD. I find myself doing a lot of that lately, using my NT cdburner (yikes) as an archival writer of iso cd's of my old hard-to-replace unix systems, and files of a historical nature. It is a pain and takes a lot of time to do it right. Tapes are so much easier, but CD's have a bit more portability than tapes. That means, if I do it right, that I can read restore or archival files from even the wife's windoz 3.1 box, if all else fails. Those machines are not intelligent enough to do that with tapes. ..... An interesting thing that I am finding on the home boxes, and also the work boxes here in the office, is that I can do a base install from scratch, in lieu of a traditional backup and restore, in about the same time or less, off CD or the net, compared to a restore backup from tape. That leads me to tar or dump off only my addins beyond the base install, for backup, as the second level backup, (primarily /usr/local, /etc changes, and that kind of thing), and then personal user files as the third level backup (primarily the home file systems, web file systems, and archival on-line file systems). That is entirely different from a traditional dump/restore level 0-9 style backup, but it works very well on my machines. It is a 3 tiered kind of thing, and then only changeable personal files get backed up regularly, with machine userland addins backed up as necessary when the conscience hurts. I would not handle it that way on commercial systems, but, on lowend home systems or even lowend things like my office systems, that approach works for me. > Backups are a form of insurance. If you want better coverage, you > pay more. (Or you expend more effort.) I'm a tightwad, and never have enough time, so I had to develop the above scenario based upon my own experiences. It works for me as lowendian Joe. I DO always make two backup copies (at least) of anything really important. A singular backup, on any medium, will bite you down the road. Redundant copies on redundant media is always best. > > Is there any reasons tapes are a better choice? > > In a home/personal environment, you might very well get > away with your installation CDROMs and a few floppy > disks with copies of local your local configuration files > in /etc, /usr/local/etc and the like. The only real problem of using floppies is that if it gets beyond half a dozen to a dozen or so floppies you have to manage, ANY form of tape is better, even an old 60mb QIC tape. Still, tarring off certain precious files to floppy, particularly your xinit files and etc files, is just plain good juju for anyone. On FreeBSD, everyone has a floppy, so it is easy to do. > In a commercial environment, there are a lot of reasons: > > If you want to archive files, there is simply no way around removable > media. Harddisk are too expensive. I would contend that even here, CDburning of archive files (i.e., those files you really, really do want to save for a rainy day, but which are not full backup fodder) is potentially as good as tapes, albeit slower. The only constraint is that you have to plan what to fit on a CD's worth of space, or your data to archive has to be less than a CD, by default. Tapes are a lot more convenient. It is probably not really viable on a big commercial system, but is entirely so on a lowendian Joe's machine. ..... > In short: > > If you use your system in a personal environment, your mileage may > vary.

A spare machine to go through the above motions is great fun and good utility on the home net or lowendian Joe's net. 8 hours seems like a little long. I seem to be able to do that on my boxes in about 2 hours, from a dead machine, provided I can local ftp install, and local ftp restore userland and personal files. You must really have a wild machine, or I am running very plain jane boxes. But, the point is that it is good practice even for the home Joe to have a spare archive machine handy. Machines really are cheap, these days. I have been paying 5 bucks and less for 486 towers that make great local ftp archive sites or spare web servers. It is really easy to do these days, and even gives one networking practice and remote backup capabilities. I have been told from our ``computer gurus'' around here that many Gatesware machines, even lowend pentiums, can't handle the load anymore. I expect a flood of those in surplus, shortly, and that would be great for my (or anyone's) FreeBSD pit....(:+}}... ..... > Sorry for the long reply. > I still have some bruises from some bad crashes. Good points. We all have a few bad memories of lost data. Unix, at least, gives one many alternatives to back things up. Everyone, even newbies, needs to give that some serious thought and action.

Somehow, majordomo@freebsd.org got blocked on my e-mail account, which is why I couldn't get any responses from it. :) However, as you may guess, this message also contains a question, or it would itself be spam! And we all hate spam... Is there any way to transfer the kernel from the install boot image to the hard drive? I have tried installing FreeBSD 3.1 and 3.3 on my computer, and both exhibit the same symptoms: Install runs perfectly, from CD or FTP or MS-DOS partition. This makes me think the problem is solvable. Except for a single hiccup mounting my CD-ROM distribution for installing, everything runs flawlessly for any installation I choose. Reboot, and the computer loads the kernel. Immediately afterwards (when the bright white FreeBSD info text would normally appear), it halts with this message: int=130001d5 err=c7000000 efl=04428b00 eip=01d57805 eax=01d56005 ebx=f689c3c9 ecx=c7085d8b edx=53e58955 esi=ffffcdd8 edi=e8e475ff ebp=658dc031 esp=5d01e845 cs=0000 ds=8f0f es=7d83 fs=ffff gs=00e4 ss=290c cs:eip = ff ff ff ff . . .

I'm trying to run the Voodoo Banshee server from Creative Labs. The reason I'm trying to do this is because when I run XFree86 3.3.5, it screws up my console display when I exit X. The Linux Server is looking to open /dev/tty9 and it can't. I tried putting a hard link from /dev/tty9 to /dev/ttyv9 but when i started X it paniced the kernel :) Is there any way first of all to fix 3.3.5 to work, and if not, to get the Linux server to work? Is there any way to somehow mimic /dev/tty9 for it? I'm running 4.0-CURRENT, and the console garble thing also happened on 3.2-RELEASE Thanks in advance for your help.

Can I use applications that are p= orted to Linux (Star Office, the GIMP, etc) on FreeBSD? _________________________________________________________ Get Visto!

I run a Voodoo Banshee, with the Creative Labs Linux X server. This is on -CURRENT just before newpcm and newpnp, and XFree 3.3.3. I don't remember having to do anything too wild to get it working. The one problem I do remember is that it doesn't play nicely with /dev/sysmouse. I have to use the real mouse device, and can't run moused. I don't have access to the machine at the moment, so I cannot tell you much more than that. I will take a look at the machine when I get home, and see what else I might have done. I don't run xdm, which might be an issue.

Auto is notorious for not properly detecting things. >-Chris umm, the last time this question came up (i.e. when I asked it), the answer was that not specifying full-duplex puts you in autonegotiate mode. Ok, after double-checking myself on this, the answer you (Christopher Michaels gave) was that you would get half-duplex. But the answer David Greenman gave was: > The fxp device does default to auto-sense, but if you hard configure the >other end then [NWAY] autonegotiation is disabled, and thus whenever you do >that you have to set both ends if you want to be sure it is correct. The >default without autonegotiation is half-duplex. meanwhile fxp(4) says: > The fxp device driver was written by David Greenman. Guess who I believe. Also I'm curious about your statement about autonegotiate being notorious. I've heard this stated frequently but never with any data to back it up. After the above reply from Mr. Greenman I read up on autonegotiation in 3 different books on high-speed networking and have come to the _tentative_ conclusion that this rumor is based on old hardware. It seems that the 100 Mbps ethernet spec pre-dates the NWAY autonegotation spec and in fact there was a different method used for autonegotiation in the earliest days of 100 Mbps ethernet. My guess is that this rumor was started during those early days and is still being dutifully passed on by those who experienced problems with the early non-NWAY equipment (and those who've heard the war stories from them). Can you (or anyone) state with any degree of certainty that any modern equipment built with NWAY autonegotiation exhibits any problems with autonegotiation? -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 12 10:51:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from typhoon.mail.pipex.net (typhoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D265314CA4 for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 10:51:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 24812 invoked from network); 12 Oct 1999 17:51:54 -0000 Received: from userad86.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

I've got a switch that does NWAY autonegotiation that has serious problems talking to anything that doesn't do NWAY autonegotiation, if that counts.

Ok so you're saying that locking the media type to 100baseTX will disable autonegotiation for duplex. I was considering speed and duplex to be independent.

(But it might be what he meant.) I took it to mean: "Hard-configuring the other end will stop the other end from sending negotiation information. If that happens, the fxp device will receive no information from the other end and will not be able to make an informed decision. In this case fxp defaults to half-duplex." -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 12 11:50:13 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cronus.medianetwork.se (cronus.medianetwork.se [193.14.204.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E4FF415638 for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 11:50:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from support@junglenote.com) Received: from junglenote.com (digital21.medianetwork.se [193.14.204.239]) by cronus.medianetwork.se (8.9.3/8.7) with ESMTP id UAA10029 for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 20:49:58 +0200 Received: from enigmatic [127.0.0.1] by junglenote.com [localhost] with SMTP (MDaemon.v2.84.R) for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 20:54:07 +0200 Received: by localhost with Microsoft MAPI; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 20:54:06 +0200 Message-ID: <01BF14F3.EC53B320.support@junglenote.com> From: Dan Larsson To: "[FreeBSD-ISP-List] (E-post)" Cc: "[FreeBSD-Questions-List] (E-post)" Subject: how-to setup billing per MB?

The installation process was fine, but I can’t make my bubble jet printer (Canon’s BJ-200ex) to work with FreeBSD 3.1. I followed the instructions on chapter 14 of The Complete FreeBSD (2 second edition) and section 7 of FreeBSD handbook. I checked for the existence of all the directories and files mentioned in file /etc/printcap, seeing no problem, but the result of command “lptest 20 5 | lpr” is always two line error messages. One is “lpr: connect: No such file or directory”, another line is “job queued, but cannot start daemon”. If I issue command “ lptest > /dev/lpt0”, the result is full page of digits and characters. I don’t know what I did wrong or what step I missed, could you give some hints? Thank you in advance.

To do this, we need a way to compare the structures. pthread_equal(3) gets us an equality comparison, but I cannot find anything for doing a less-than comparison. On FreeBSD in particular, the pthread_t structure's contents are not accessible to user-level code (as far as I can tell), so that is providing some complication. pthread_set_name_np() looks very promising since we could use strcmp(3) for doing less-than comparisons, but I cannot find any facility for retrieving a thread's name once it is set. I've been looking through header files, the libc_r source and the mailing list archives but have come up empty thus far. Is there some method to get a unique identifer for a pthread_t that can be used for comparison with other pthread_t's, or do we have to stick with pthread_equal(3) alone? -Patrick Patrick L.

The wtmp format underwent a change on transition from 2.2.x to 3.x. It works fine on the 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 machines here. Are you sure you're running the correct/latest last(1)? Also, any old programs that modify wtmp will also need to recompiled and reinstalled (eg: screen), so that they `know' about the wtmp changes. Are you running any 2.2 a.out stuff on your machine?

FreeBSD runs most linux software without any problems through the linux emulation. GIMP can be run native, Star Office is run through emulation.

I just reported on what I'd read and asked for some actual data to back up what appears on the surface to be a wild rumor fired largely by war stories of old equipment built to a different spec than the current one. Do *you* know with any certainty if autonegotiation problems are due to old hardware, mis-configuration (aka pilot error), or just brain-dead equipment?

I'm not going to start a holy war over which is better. Totally a personal choice. You'll want two Ethernet cards in your unix box. One card connected to the cable modem and one connected to a hub. Connect the other 2 computers to the hub also. Run your desired server stuff; web, mail, firewall, file and print services (SAMBA), and whatever else on the unix box. For sharing the cable modem line it is called NAT, Network Address Translation, or in Linux terms, IP Masquerading. I do all of this with no problems.

I am pretty satisfied but I am always looking for something better. I am looking for an operating system that I can use at home for a small network (3 PC's). The server would be connected to the internet by a cable modem and the clients would be running Win95. What I am looking for are as follows; a firewall, file and print services for the clients, internet access for all the clients from the single cable line, the possibility to start and maintain a web page with security. Why would FreeBSD be my best choice and also how easy is it to maintain? Are there any Net/Sys Admin books available to help me out? Can I use applications that are ported to Linux (Star Office, the GIMP, etc) on FreeBSD? _________________________________________________________ Get Visto!

Since, surprisingly, people do seem to have a non-negligible interest in the question, I'll pass along what I had found. I did have a look at the source code later on yesterday when I had the time. xclock(1) does the following (from XClock.c), (void) time(&time_value); tm = *localtime(&time_value); str = asctime(&tm); And no further processing of the text string is done. As for how TZ gets involved in there, see localtime(3). It seems like it would be only slightly more than trival to change that asctime(3) call into a strftime(3)[0] call and add the needed command line/environmental/Xdefaults to get a format string used.

Is there any way to somehow mimic /dev/tty9 for it? The Banshee only seems to have this problem when switching from a graphical mode to the _standard_ text mode (80x25). Adding the following line to /etc/rc.conf allscreens_flags="80x30" fixed it for me.

Well, first, please don't use Microsoft non-standard characters in your mail. It makes it very difficult to read. Given the problems with Microsoft mailers, you're better off to avoid them altogether. You don't have the daemon running, as the message says. Start it with: # lpd You should also put the following line in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon. This information isn't in the second edition of The Book, but it's in the addenda (see http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html#older for details of how to get the addenda in a number of formats).

The easiest solutution may be to install frontpage extensions on your web server. They are available for apache, and a version is in ports (/usr/ports/www/apache-fp). Make sure you understand the security implications of enabling this :) Check the documentation on Micrsoft's site and also the docs that come with the extensions (the SERK, I think). I'm no big fan of frontpage, you could do the same with a CGI script written in perl, and even if you don't know perl, a few hours with a decent CGI book would give you the answer. Perl and CGI.pm (a module for perl to do forms etc are very flexible). Check out http://www.perl.org/ and http://www.CPAN.org/ if you want more details.

Hows BBN? I did a (very) short stint in the NOC in Cambridge a few years back... Anyhow, about your question... 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 were (what I consider) the transitory releases between a.out and ELF formats. As such, they were originally intended to support both fairly transparently. 2.2.6 had an enviornment variable, OBJFORMAT, that could be set to either aout or elf (actually, I believe you can still do this in 3.x), and this in turn would be used by helper applications to determine the correct underlying binary to run. For instance /usr/bin/gdb would only be a binary that if OBJFORMAT was set elf, it'd run /usr/local/libexec/gdb with all of your parameters. If it was set aout, it'd run /usr/local/libexec/aout/gdb. Note that the above description is merely an example, and I don't still have a 2.2.6 system to validate the paths I'm giving, but, that was the general idea at the time. The 'gotcha' in 2.2.6 was that the 'standard' installation didn't install the a.out binaries in the right place, so you had to build what you wanted with -aout. Well, there was also a problem with the dynamic loader at the time that made it easier to link -static that do screw around with library paths and the like when you wanted to switch from debugging an elf app to an a.out flavor. I just took a quick look around my 3.3 system, and it looks like /usr/lib/aout isn't even populated any more. My guess would be that you'd have to install the 3.0 (or possibly even the 2.x) compatability distributions to get them. With that, you may also get all of the a.out tools. If not, once you have the libraries, you could probably punt, and rebuild gdb with -aout and -static, as I did for 2.2.6. I wish I could offer a more concise "how to", but as my job is writing tools on FreeBSD for doing testing, I tend to stay pretty current with new features, which means I went elf at 3.0, and haven't really had to look back since. If I can provide any additional pointers, please let me know. I'm also going to also send this reply along to the -questions list, so people can comment on how wrong I am, and possibly have a quick answer for you. :) -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Oct 12 20: 6: 5 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp5.mindspring.com (smtp5.mindspring.com [207.69.200.82]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 17B1214E45 for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 20:06:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from du23@sprynet.com) Received: from sprynet.com (user-33qta4p.dialup.mindspring.com [199.174.168.153]) by smtp5.mindspring.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id XAA32045 for ; Tue, 12 Oct 1999 23:06:01 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <3803F691.5E5B45EB@sprynet.com> Date: Tue, 12 Oct 1999 22:03:45 -0500 From: "Altair Demetrio Jr." X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Question Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there a place like "Micro Center", or "CompUSA" that I could buy a home pc with FreeBSD preinstalled?

Thanks Half the fun is setting up your own PC with FreeBSD. If you still have the CDs for 3.2 give it another shot. If you run into trouble, write down the error messages and ask us a question. We are here to help. :) Be sure to read the install instructions on the website. They are a great help.

So how do I do this on FreeBSD? Symlinking the world is phooey SystemVism. You should modify your path properly to find your programs rather than modify the system so that paths don't need to be changed. To see where your path is... $ echo $PATH To see where a specific binary is coming from... $ which command If there happen to be two of the same command on a system, the first one encountered in the search path will be returned by which.

There is a bug in pppd-2.3.5 which was patched in later pppd releases but wasn't included in FreeBSD. When you use '*' as IP address wildcard in a secret file then pppd is trying to gethostbyname() for '*' as domain. Because no external route available the gethostbyname() call timed out, but pppd is timed out before, and PAP auth failed. You may use this patch to pppd/auth.c to fix the problem: --- auth.c.orig Wed Mar 31 19:24:20 1999 +++ auth.c Wed Mar 31 23:06:23 1999 @@ -1254,7 +1254,7 @@ u_int32_t a; struct hostent *hp; - if (*p != '!' && *p != '-' && strchr(p, '/') == NULL) { + if (*p != '*' && *p != '!' && *p != '-' && strchr(p, '/') == NULL) { hp = gethostbyname(p); if (hp != NULL && hp->h_addrtype == AF_INET) a = *(u_int32_t *)hp->h_addr; OS >We use FreeBSD 2.2.8 to provide dial-up services. >Clients logged in with PAP authorization.

My /etc/newsyslog.conf includes: /var/log/apache_access_log 644 7 * 24 Z /var/log/apache_error_log 644 7 * 24 Z Apache logs just fine, but once the log rotates, it stops logging. The new log only contains the "logfile turned over" statement. If I hup apache, it starts logging just fine. This setup worked fine under Apache 1.2x without PHP. Any thoughts on where to check?

Unix is funny like that... it tends to have 20 ways to solve any problem. I just didn't think of this. Personally, I like having it as a seperate partition because it prevents a run-away mysql daemon or syslogd from filling the partition which contains nearly everything. (I also tend to have /tmp and /home partitions for this reason.)

I don't know about Apache 1.2, but the current apache will continue to log to the old log file, even after rotation. It will only close it after its gets a HUP signal. You need to add an extra field to your newsyslog config to tell it to send a HUP to the apache server after a rotation.

I guess I have 2 issues here. For one, sometimes my CD-ROM gets "locked up" in an atareq state, and the only way I have found to stop it is to open the drive and then kill the process that was using it...however, this didn't work this last time, so I had to reboot. Anyway, when I rebooted, I started getting vinum errors again. Now it says vinum: no drives found and when I try to do vinum start from the command line, I get ** no drives found: No such file or directory What is it trying to do here?

Here are *some* of my feeble attempts, do not really understand the error message, # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/tty /cdrom cd9660: Block device required # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0 /cdrom cd9660: No such file or directory # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/tty0 /cdrom cd9660: No such file or directory # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/ttyv0 /cdrom cd9660: Block device required # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/console /cdrom cd9660: Block device required reference for those interested http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO thanks Jeff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 13 6:54:58 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from apotheosis.za.org (apotheosis.za.org [137.158.128.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CB455151F4 for ; Wed, 13 Oct 1999 06:54:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mwest@uct.ac.za) Date: Wed, 13 Oct 1999 15:54:23 +0200 From: Matthew West To: Jeff Gray Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: mountable directory?

Well you are very mistaken. Nothing is "wiped out" Are you using the HTML interface? The bwmgr gathers data and provides graphical output for day, week or month. The monthly output includes an "average usage" for the month, which is the total usage divided by the number of seconds in a month. You can take the average and multiply it out. We could also easily incorporate that total usage in the report. all you have to do is create a stats interface for the IP rule and make sure that bwmgrd is running.

The questions asked to me is : Is it possible to filter all mail going across this server thru a Windoze virus scanner/destroyer/blocker/remover ? What I mean is : ist possible to install under FreeBSD such a beast ? Is there anything, even for money ?

In fact, I'm trying to compile PPPoE (ppp over ethernet) driver, that was released originally for Linux. But I got it from a FreeBSD user, who said that he modified the code for FreeBSD.

I'm not a coder and tried it by adding the following to the Makefile: --with-modles=mod_sqlpw \ --with-modles=mod_mysql \ --with-modles=mod_pgsql \ --with-modles=mod_ratio but the make doesn't seem to find the modules. Proftp source has all four of these puppies in the contrib dir, but the modules dir only has links to ratio and pgsql. The ratio module is the only one that make finds, which is also the only one the port had configured by default. So what am I missing here and why does the proftp src only link to ratio and pgsql modules? This is what I could find about it searching the Proftp list archives: Noah> FWIW, I am experiencing the same problem, although here's a few Noah> more data points: Noah and I have determined that 1) theres is an embarrasing missing comma at the end of mod_sqlpw, and 2) completely unrelated, SQL auth doesnt work if you don't --with-modules in a very picky order. The workaround is to specify mod_sqlpw first; I use --with-modles=mod_sqlpw:mod_mysql:mod_pgsql:mod_ratio. I'll fix it so it configs during the first command, not at child init.

But that's all that appears and the process times out. The only other alternative to DNS was to make sure there were appropriate entries in /etc/hosts on the Gateway m/c and similar copies of hosts on the windows boxes. But this didn't work so that's when I first configured DNS. But note that the windows boxes still have c:\windows\hosts configured correctly as a fallback in case DNS doesn't work. However, since posting the original message, I have configured a dual boot machine on the network using a spare h/drive. Same problem. Local network accesses are OK; cannot link to the net from the 2nd FreeBSD machine. So the problem has to be with the gateway. I have the DNS/Bind cricket book (latest edition), Greg Lehey's excellent book and the O'Reilley Apache book, all of which I have read and re-read many times - but I've still got something misconfigured somewhere. I've also tried running ppp without the -alias flag and *then* launching natd using the -n tun0 flag, but this gives exactly the same result. Brian, I just seem to be completely stuck with the current symptoms and cannot see what the underlying cause is. Could you tell me more about "nothing's being forwarded" and what checks I can make?

My 3.1 and 3.2 CD's boot fine. There's a known problem where 3.3 CDROM's don't boot on some (all?) IDE CDROM drives. It'll boot fine off SCSI CDROM drives, though. The workaround is to create the boot floppies, boot off them, and then install from CDROM. -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@sr.hp.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Hewlett-Packard, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.

This is an okay description for the CD-ROM people, but not so great for FTP installs. The docs now point you to a README which also doesn't give you a clear description of where the floppy images are. I don't think it's that hard to find them, but I've done X number of FTP installs (where X is some number > 15 now) and know what to look for. To grab the floppies go to: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.3-RELEASE/floppies/ and grab the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp, then continue to follow the instructions given above. I guess I should stop complaining about the docs and submit a change so I don't have to keep giving this answer. :-) > Thank You, | http://students.washington.edu/jcwells ^ Don't you need a "/" here? | :-) Brett ***************************************************** Dr. Brett Taylor brett@peloton.runet.edu * Dept of Chem and Physics * Curie 39A (540) 831-6147 * Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics * Walker 234 (540) 831-5410 * ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 13 10:31: 5 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nair.kuban.ru (nair.kuban.ru [195.161.49.136]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 817A914ECD for ; Wed, 13 Oct 1999 10:30:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from frol@nair.kuban.ru) Received: from nair (nair.kuban.ru [195.161.49.136]) by nair.kuban.ru with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.1960.3) id 4P3HT80N; Wed, 13 Oct 1999 21:30:51 +0400 Message-ID: <000701bf15a0$b24dd860$8831a1c3@nair.kuban.ru> From: "Frol W."

I've just started tracking -STABLE and the timestamp in my checkout file translates to Tue Sep 28 23:13:34 BST 1999. This is the time I started (or finished?) cvsup'ing. How can this be related to the exact version of all the sources that were downloaded, especially as I use a UK mirror and not the main site?

There are 2 Windows machines behind the NAT running ICQ clients. People on my ICQ list see me come on and offline quite often. So I'm assuming that I am having problems sustaining a connection with the ICQ server, or the ICQ server is trying to send me a reply packet and it cant get through the firewall on 4000. I have no problems sending and receiving ICQ messages since the firewall option I have enabled is open. It has no problems punching out a TCP port to establish a connection. However I am seeing in my logs that there are UDP connections coming from the 205.188.153.* and 205.188.179.* via port 4000. I've used the this to try and rectify this. "ipfw add 00110 allow udp from 205.188.0.0/16 to 4000 in" and "ipfw add 0010 allow udp from 205.188.153.0/24 to 4000 in" However, I still see connection ateempts UDP connections destined to port 4000 from the above subnets. if anybody can shed some light on this, I would appreciate your help Thanks, Ben.

We are using FreeBSD as the operating system for our DNS server on an Intel based box. I believe, after looking at the /etc/motd file, the version is 2.1. However, based on the file date of the bsd executable the version could be 2.2.7. I have inherited several issues from my predecessor and Y2K compliance for our DNS server is one. My question is: What is the minimum FreeBSD version level necessary to be Y2K compliant? Thank you very much for your valuable time and assistance.

Answer "yes" and it connects to www.sun.com using it's own browser. However this is unbelievably slooooow, the data rates shown at the bottom of the window are *always* single digit bytes/sec. On the one occasion I allowed it to finish (~10 mins) it took me to the registration page. I select the OS (Linux :( ) and language then clicked the "register" button. After many more minutes of slow data transfer it just returned to the same page, no mention of having successfully registering. So, questions. Is the info you enter during the install supposed to be for automatic registration? Why are the data transfer rates so slow? (I'm not using Netscape or anything else at the same time). Does the fact that "Register SO" is still on the task list mean that I have not successfully registered it? TIA. -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.

Putting (some) swap on a relatively inactive spindle is generally a Good Thing. It is not necessary for swap placement to be all-or-nothing; you can have multiple swap areas. (Having more than one on a single spindle isn't generally something I'd recommend, though.) And it's my understanding that swap use migrates toward swap areas that yield better peformance. Of course, best is to avoid swapping atogether, but that's true for I/O generally -- it's faster if you can figure out ways to avoid it. If you have an MFS-mounted file system (such as /tmp), I'm not sure which swap areas would be used in FreeBSD; in SunOS, my recollection is that it just treats the entire set of swap areas as a single resource as far as TMPFS is concerned.

I installed the lastest version of freebsd from the ftp server, and all was fine. When I went to the directory /usr/ports/net/samba and used the make install command, I got the following error message: "samba 2.03, your system is too old to use this bsd.port.mk. You need a fresh make work or an upgrade kit. Please go to http://www.freebsd.org/ports and follow the instructions." I went there and read everything but could not figure out what exactly I needed. Do I need to use the CVSup utility and upgrade my whole repository or do I just download a patch, which patch?? Is there a step by step easy to follow instructions to fix this problem. Any information will be greatly appreciated. I am a Window NT guy who is trying to see the power of FreeBSD, and so far, I am just plain confused.

Now I'm trying to understand CVSup mechanics. As of now, I run FreeBSD on a P133 with somewhat limited disk space, so I'm trying to be as conservative as possible. I did minimal install, and then used /stand/sysinstall to install only the things that I need. I would also like to stay as stable as possible. Am I right in my understanding that including tag=RELENG_3 will *only* get me those updates, that have been tested and deemed stable? So far, I have upgraded my sources with the following supfile: *default host=cvsup3.freebsd.org *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default tag=RELENG_3 *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix src-base src-bin src-etc src-gnu src-include src-lib src-libexec src-sbin src-share src-sys src-tools src-usrbin src-usrsbin cvs-crypto I would also like to track updates for some of the ports, installed on my system. 4 questions on this: 1. If I included ports-www release=cvs in the supfile, then it would result in *all* ports under that category installed on my system, right? 2. I understood that I can't include tag=RELENG_3 with any of the ports, right? In that case, will I get ports from CURRENT when doing the update? Is there any difference between the ports, used with CURRENT, and the ones, shipped with STABLE? 3. Will I get sources or the binaries of the ports? 4. Is there any way to specify on a per-application basis, which of them I want installed and updated? Like I said earlier, all I want are updates to apache, mutt, and a *very small* number of applications.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello. After kernel crashes, FreeBSD saves core dump during next time booting. This opearation, looks like, allocates a lot of memory (I think for filesystem cache). After booting I try to allocate some memory in kernel, but it fails, because of lack of memory (it still being kept by somebody). Is there any way in FreeBSD kernel to flush Filesystem cache and thus free memory to be used by kernel for other purposes. Or I have to reboot computer again to avoid saving core and lack of memory in kernel.

In the pre-Sun days when a registration key was required, the info you sent to generate the key had to match the info in the running SO. But the info is also automatically included or used as defaults in various other places. (Basicly, it fills in your entry in your AddressBook.) > Why are the data transfer rates so slow? (I'm not using Netscape > or anything else at the same time). You might get better answers to this in the staroffice newsgroups at starnews.sun.com. They readily admit that the browser is somewhat crude and completely unoptimized at this point. (Several of the list members have expressed the hope that Sun will replace the StarOffice browser core with the Mozilla core when it becomes sufficiently stable.) It is also possible that there's some interaction with the Linux mode that is exacerbating the problem. > Does the fact that "Register SO" is still on the task list mean > that I have not successfully registered it? It probably just means that you haven't manually checked it off as having been done. This might have been handled automatically in the pre-Sun versions that actually required a registration key. But now that registering is optional I suspect that it doesn't actually have any good way to tell whether you've registered or not. -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Oct 13 13:36:42 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from rocksalt.mui.net (ken-tom-adsl.hi.net [207.12.12.188]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 19BC11537C for ; Wed, 13 Oct 1999 13:36:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ktom@rocksalt.mui.net) Received: from lihing.mui.net (lihing.mui.net [204.182.234.196]) by rocksalt.mui.net (8.9.3/8.8.7) with SMTP id KAA00444 for ; Wed, 13 Oct 1999 10:36:02 -1000 (HST) (envelope-from ktom@rocksalt.mui.net) Message-Id: <199910132036.KAA00444@rocksalt.mui.net> From: ktom@mui.net To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 13 Oct 1999 10:36:40 -1000 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: 3.3 release, kernel rebuilding comment X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.11) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm not sure if this is the same for anyone else, but it's a problem I came across. it may be old news, but perhaps someone can benefit from it. I tried building the boot floppies from the cd, using the makeflp.bat that's on the cd. fdimage didn't seem to work very well. after many attempts, I finally used "rawrite" which seemed to get further along. however, some errors still kept coming up. so finally, i tried to download the boot images from the website. it took a while to figure out, but the downloaded images didn't work quite well, and a successive download finally got it right. Things like it not recognizing devices that it used to ... etc. one more recreation of the mfsroot using rawrite finally did the job. on a side note, I've noticed that to use the second ethernet card, (in my case ed0 and ed1) can't be done from the boot floppies. not unless you're using 2 different types of ethernet cards. ADSL required the second ethernet card in order to work properly (dhcp i guess).

A pthread_t is a pointer to a struct pthread. If you don't need any specific ordering, you could simply sort on the pthread_t itself, treating it as an unsigned integer value. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

I've tried this, and it is working, so I'm quite happy. Now I have to deal with all the other aspects of the project that aren't porting easily from IRIX. :\ -Patrick Patrick L.

My query is that would there be a problem if i try to use two identical n/w interface cards to configure my m/c as a router. Is it possible or allowed to do so? If yes, what IRQ numbers and addresses do these cards use ? Somebody please help me in this regard. Thank you.

What IP inside IP tunneling solution is there that works both on FreeBSD and on Linux? I have a Linux box on the 'net, and a box at home that connects via dialup that's blocked from the world (but not from that Linux box). What I did was run a private encapsulated 192.168 network between the Linux box and the home box with the Linux IPIP driver, and then used masquerading on the Linux box to get out. Now I'm playing more and more with FreeBSD at home (an excellent system -- way to go!), and I'd like the same setup, but I can't replace that Linux server. So what can I use? Does FreeBSD support the IPIP implementation that Linux does? If not, Linux also has GRE, which seems to be more standard; does FreeBSD support that? Where can I find more info on the subject? (I searched, and didn't find.) Please CC me your reply since I'm not subscribed.

I want to put anywhere from 5 to 10, 8 speed burners in the system that will write one ISO image at the same time using multiple processes of cdrecord. My question is will the SCSI subsystem on FreeBSD handle this, and has anyone ever tried this? I have explored the possibility of using Linux, but it looks like there is a problem with limited buffers in the SCSI generic driver. Does FreeBSD have the same problem, or does FreeBSD Rock.

Seems to be a little language barrier here. So you are really not asking about DNS problems at all? Rather, you are asking how to get your sendmail to print your email address correctly so other people's MTAs accept your mail? The most simple way to do this is to go into your /etc/sendmail.cf and find the line that starts with 'DM' and change it to 'DMsofrecom.fr' and your outgoing email will have a return address of 'yveline.josserand@aaa.sofrecom.fr'. -- Crist J.

YMMV, but I saw an error like this on my old x4 CD-ROM drive and upgrading it to a x48 CD-ROM drive allowed dagrab to work without a hitch. (Actually, it was ripenc's calling of dagrab, but its the same idea.) So maybe your CD-ROM drive is old enough to not support some of the calls that dagrab makes. I forget what the system is called (digital audio sampling?) but apparently its not in many older drives. BTW, both of my drives are/were ATAPI drives.

These are just what the name implies: a distribution built from a momentary "snapshot" of the source tree. You can't know what version of a source file exactly went into a snapshot build other than by looking at the actual source distributed along with the snapshot. (Snaps are available from .) In practice, for most files date granularity is sufficient to readily identify the version used. For *releases* a "tag" is laid down in the CVS tree. Such a tag is a label associated with the exact versions of all source files when the tag was created. For examples, CVS operations can refer to the exact state of FreeBSD 3.3R by specifying the RELENG_3_3_0_RELEASE tag. Putting down a tag is a rather expensive operation since it updates all(!) files in the repository, so this is only done for serious demarcation points in the development history of the project. > What I'm getting at is if I were to find something "broken" after > cvsup'ing how does the date in the checkout file help identify the > version of each (relevant) source file? Each source file has a $FreeBSD$ identifier that gives the exact version in RCS/CVS numbering. E.g., the checked-out version of /usr/src/Makefile I have on my system contains $FreeBSD: src/Makefile,v 1.228 1999/08/28 01:35:57 peter Exp $ which tells us: - This is the FreeBSD identifier. (Source files shared between different projects may contain several identifiers.) - The repository file is "src/Makefile,v". - The exact version is 1.228. - It was last changed on 1999-08-28, at 01:35:57, by somebody with the account name of "peter".

If your c3om 509b is an isa bus device, go into the cmos setup and set its interrupt to be reserved for an isa device. You may have to run the diagnostics under dos to find out which interrupt it is set to. I hope this helps.

I've read the mailing list archives, reviewed the handbook, and am still confused. The pcm0 manpage says it's for ISA cards, and doesn't list the card. All the web pages I've found "Sound HOW-TO", don't discuss the PCI based cards, yet I see many references to people successfully using them. can someone point me at something which will help me get this installed? Perhaps a copy of your kernel config file, or a pointer to some documentation which is appropirate. thanks in advance. Regards, francis BTW - I'd rather not use the OSS stuff if at all possible.

Probably not, unless the http server you're using is extremely lean on memory usage (which Apache is most definately NOT). Wcarchive can handle 10,000 FTP users, but only because it is running a special ftp daemon that I wrote which has a very small memory requirement (and even with that, the machine still needs 4GB of RAM to get there). With 2GB of RAM you could probably handle around 1500-2000 simultaneous http users. If you double the RAM to 4GB you might be able to get close to your low end 5K users number. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.

Having 2 network cards is not a prerequisit for a router. One interface can be on two logically separate segments.

If you had the room in your machines, you could fill it with network cards. Thats not a problem. They get refered to sequentially (e.g. ed0, ed1... edN) The cards should have different IO addresses and IRQs. Have a look at the documentation for the cards, or perhaps search through some of the hardware newsgroups on how and why you want your PC cards to have different IRQ settings. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers could setup a national IP network."

Installing was no problem, but there are some issues. The built-in "modem" is a losemodem, and seems to be the only type installed by Toshiba these days (and they won't/can't install a real one, even if you offer to pay extra). The so-called BIOS setup is a royal PITA, doesn't allow you to change a lot of things other machines do, and getting tech info out of Toshiba is like pulling teeth without anaesthetic. On the other hand, my Satellite is fast, light, and the two PCMCIA slots hold an ethernet and a modem quite nicely. The display (once I looked on the Xfree86 site) works like a charm.

I tried grep ^[a-zA-Z]*: /usr/ports/Mk/* and it matched 52 lines, which means there are probably that many targets. The vast majority of them aren't useful to most users, though, so I'm not sure it would help to document them collectively. [and because you get a usable INDEX file through cvsup, I'm not sure I'd recommend "make index" to the average user] The main makefile itself has comments documenting the dozen or so most targets that an end user might actually want.

In the unlikely event that CVSup leaves you with a broken file, the next run will "notice" the brokenness because the checksum on the file will be odd. Ciao, Sheldon.

We need to see what you see once you've logged in and typed done ``cd incoming''. If you don't get an error message, then the change of directory is probably working. I suspect the problem may be that you don't have a ~ftp/bin directory containing an ls binary, as explained in the ftpd(8) manpage. When you have no ls binary, you can's see files. That doesn't mean you can't change directory or get files. Ciao, Sheldon.

If Jonathan Chen's advice doesn't sort your problem out, then you may be running some shell like bash, which looks for its own .bashrc instead of .profile . If that's the case, you could create yourself the following .bashrc file: if [ -f $HOME/.profile ] ; then . $HOME/.profile fi Ciao, Sheldon.

I've read the mailing list archives, reviewed the handbook, and am still confused. The pcm0 manpage says it's for ISA cards, and doesn't list the card. All the web pages I've found "Sound HOW-TO", don't discuss the PCI based cards, yet I see many references to people successfully using them. can someone point me at something which will help me get this installed? Perhaps a copy of your kernel config file, or a pointer to some documentation which is appropirate. thanks in advance. Regards, francis BTW - I'd rather not use the OSS stuff if at all possible.

For a start I'd suggest: * reading all you can (the O'Reilly book "Getting connected at 56K and up" is a good overview of all things ISP-oriented).. * following all the ISP related lists and groups (e.g. inet-access too) * maybe volunteer at a local ISP first (you'll find out it's not as glamorous as you may think when users call you at 3am cuz they can't get at some porn site); you might also try to find a local non-profit ISP that could use volunteer help. * try setting up stuff at home: RADIUS authentication, PPP dial-in, web servers, FTP servers, user accounts that are prevented from seeing each other, logging, accounting, billing software; figure out how to recover when one of your critical boxes catches fire. * learn everything you can about network security: you'll be hacked by both outsiders and insiders.

I have an ensoniq AudioPCI. It uses the es1371 chipset, as I recall. All I had to do was add device pcm0 device es1 To my kernel, rebuild and reboot. You should see some messages regarding the es and pcm device in dmesg after you reboot. Watch for any special chipset information (ie es1370, 1371) etc. The rest of the sound how-to applies after this point.

Actually, if this were necessarily so, this would be a major strike against the ports collection. Imagine for a moment that your host is on a local ethernet that is in turn connected to a large national network, which has FTP mirror sites hanging off a 34..155Mbit/s backbone, but whose international gateway is hopelessly congested. Would you then prefer to pull tarballs at 100 bytes/s from overseas if the same data is sitting on one of those nearby FTP mirrors, with the limit to the download speed only being your local 10 Mbit/s ethernet line? Now, I don't need to imagine this. I experience it every day. Fortunately, the ports mechanism is more flexible. In /etc/make.conf you can specify mirror sites for many well-known master archives, such as GNU, Perl CPAN, etc. And you can specify an override, so a first attempt will be made to fetch the distfiles from, say, your nearby FreeBSD mirror. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Oct 14 8:43:39 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (news-ma.rhein-neckar.de [193.197.90.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D46FC14C27 for ; Thu, 14 Oct 1999 08:43:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: from bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (uucp@localhost) by news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with bsmtp id RAA13588 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 14 Oct 1999 17:43:34 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA85916 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 14 Oct 1999 16:53:56 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: CVSup conceptual question Date: 14 Oct 1999 16:53:55 +0200 Message-ID: <7u4qq3$2jse$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> References: <871zazvtou.fsf@main.wgaf.net> <87g0zevk9o.fsf@main.wgaf.net> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Arcady Genkin wrote: > Could anyone who has ports-all in their supfile tell me, how much > space does the entire collection of "skeltons" occupy?

(Yes, I know the security risks, but the user is me. I'm not comfortable keeping a root window open just to mount & unmount documentation disks.) The system is 3.3-stable, on a Toshiba 4015CDS laptop. I've set vfs.usermount=1. When I try to mount /cdrom as a regular user, I get: moneysink~;mount /cdrom cd9660: Operation not permitted moneysink~; To try to solve this, I've chowned nobody.nobody, chmod 777 /cdrom. I've made sure that cd9660.ko is proviously loaded. The same operation succeeds as root, so it's not an fstab problem. /var/log/messages has nothing interesting therein. Any suggestions?

Has anyone approaced orielly about doing a book ? Tim O'Reilly seems very interested in the idea from the website. Would the handbook and FAQ and some of Greg's excellent books (although that judgement is based on word of mouth, as I only remember the book that came with 2.1.5) combine to make a complete O'Reilly guide. It's not that I didn't like the Complete FreeBSD or whatever it was called, but the point is (IMHO) that an O'Reilly book would really give FreeBSD proper "proffessional and serious" status.

Take a look at the bash man page and the mailing list archives for more info. Basically the ~/.bashrc is only sourced when a new instance of bash in executed. When it is a login shell it looks for ~/.profile or (i belive) ~/.bash_profile. This behavior is completely baffling to me but that is how it is desinged. The best thing to do is to put a line in either the ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile, or maybe even /etc/profile that sources ~/.bashrc if it exists. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Sheldon Hearn [SMTP:sheldonh@uunet.co.za] > Sent: Thursday, October 14, 1999 10:08 AM > To: Hayden Katzenellenbogen > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: .bashrc > > > > On Thu, 14 Oct 1999 15:12:30 +0200, Hayden Katzenellenbogen wrote: > > > Running Ver 3.2 with the latest bash. when I login in as root my .bashrc > > file runs but for no other user but root. how do I get the normal users > > bashrc files to run > > Are you sure your users have readable .bashrc files in their home > directories?

AFAIK the orielly books are fairly technical generally, maybe for Linux they can afford to produce a couple of simple "here's a getting started guide" type books, but probably not for FreeBSD. Bearing in mind they'll want to make some money on it, it's probably fair, however it would be in FreeBSD's interests to probably put this high priority. Steve P.S. Forgot to mention that I know nothing (like manuel from faulty towers), and could never write a book because I've no idea how to formulate a readable sentence... that's just in case anyone thought that's what I meant.

Tell the machine the truth about the network it's on -- specify an appropriate netmask for the actual circumstances. If you tell it /24, that means that 207.66.106.1 is on the local network. In your case, it would seem that /26 would be a better choice (though you might be able to use (e.g.) /27 or /28, if you subnet your /26).

Since posting a reply earlier this morning I have been able to sit down once again this evening and look at the: net.inet.ip.forwarding: 0 response I obtained. Looking at the docs once again I realise that ip forwarding should be set=1 by the: gateway_enable="YES" flag in /etc/rc.conf and that this is picked up at boot time. I discovered a mailing just today from Marcel Moolenar where he gives: sysctl -w net.inet.ipforwarding=1 I tried this and everything now appears to work OK. I can ping, traceroute, receive web content from the windows clients. I cannot tell you how happy I am to get this working. What I do not understand is that I have ``gateway_enable="YES"'' in my rc.conf file. It's been there from the date I started configuring FreeBSD as a gateway. I am beginning to wonder if some of the other settings are interfering with the gateway option. I have attached the (quite small) rc.conf file. If anyone can spot any obvious no-no's in the file, please let me know. Can I thank you Brian, Marcel, Matthias Teege, Todd Backman, Jason Wells, Steve Doty, Jeroen Ruigrok, Doug@gorean.org (and anyone else I've not included in the list) for sticking by this one and helping a newcomer out.

That file I guess is /var/db/pkg/bind-8.2.1/+CONTENTS on this system and shows a lot of files. That must have taken some time! The file has a @cwd /usr/local line. I am assuming that means changed working directory to /usr/local. Funny thing is that the named binary in the /usr/local/sbin directory has a date stamp prior to my 3.3-RELEASE update. Must have originated from a pkg_add command somewhere. I renamed it to named002 (the origional named in /usr/sbin is named001). Now more wierdstuff. The boot information printed in /var/log/messages shows the date for named to be the date I updated to 3.3-RELEASE, not the date of named in /usr/sbin.

The build was successful and it successfully diffed the getpwent.c file. However, a cd /usr/sbin ls -al bind* indicated that the named file hadn't been updated. The datestamp still indicated the origial install date. Some reverse disassembly of the make files led me to "divine" that a make afterinstall was required.

I am running FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE with XFree86 3.3.5. I just got a new Sony GDM-500PS and I am looking for the modeline definition that will drive this monitor to it's full capabilities. The standard modes for XFree86 are rather conservative. The highest refresh rate I could get with XFree86config was 60Hz. It made me dizzy watching the screen redraw before my eyes as I scrolled in Netscape. The monitor's maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 / 85Hz. I have it running at 1600 x 1200 / 75Hz with this modeline: Modeline "1600x1200" 198.000 1600 1616 1776 2112 1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync It shouldn't matter, but I have a Matrox Millennium II 4Mb PCI card which should be fast enough for the resolution I want. If not, I have a Matrox Millennium G200 8Mb PCI on the way which will definitely support the resolution I want. Does anyone have a GDM-500PS or comparable monitor who knows the modeline I need? Does anyone know where I can get a listing of modelines for standard resolutions? The XFree86 project does not seem to provide modelines for all of the VESA modes.

About all I've been doing is CVSup of ports and src regularly at this one location on my site. I've also tried using it for /usr/obj space when a machine does not have local disk space for a make world. I NFS mount these on other machines to access them. The performance is not blazing, but I did not expect it to be, but I have had some more troublesome problems.

Note that the times are not correlated between these two sets of messages on the different machines. I really do not have any idea what this second set of messages means. So, I ask the maillist, what could be causing the momentary lapses in NFS service seen by the client? Limitations of the server hardware? Network problems?

This would require a re-compile of the kernel.

The following example makes it confusing (all from 3.3 Stable) nmbclusters is supposed to equal 512+MAXUSERSx16, so the first example actually reduces nmbclusters from the default : Example: maxusers=256, nmbclusters set to 4096 %netstat -m 68/416 mbufs in use: 65 mbufs allocated to data 3 mbufs allocated to packet headers 64/182/4096 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) 416 Kbytes allocated to network (32% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines Same Machine: maxusers=512, nmbclusters not explicitly set %netstat -m 68/128 mbufs in use: 65 mbufs allocated to data 3 mbufs allocated to packet headers 64/68/8704 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) 152 Kbytes allocated to network (89% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines I will stick with this one example because it is very representative of what I have found. With the exception of max mbuf clusters in use my my numbers are lower when I would expect them to be higher: 68/128 mbufs in use: <- I would expect this to mean 68 in use out of 128 total, but this can't be right. 152 Kbytes allocated to network (89% in use) <- Why fewer?

You ought to have something like: test -f ~/.bashrc && . ~/.bashrc somewhere into your .bash_profile file to make Bash read the file .bashrc too. This all becomes clear when we read in the info pages of bash: When Bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, it first reads and executes commands from the file `/etc/profile', if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for `~/.bash_profile', `~/.bash_login', and `~/.profile', in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The `--noprofile' option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "Curse me if I'm wrong, but don't you want to Slang me?"

Yes, depending on the shell used, this may be true. One way to come around this is to change the window manager menus, and make sure that xterm is loaded with the -ls option (login shell). -- Giorgos Keramidas, "Curse me if I'm wrong, but don't you want to Slang me?"

There are probably less than a hundred people in the world who would buy a Newbus Device Drivers book. A "generic" FreeBSD book would probably sell thousands of copies. If you point people to FreeBSD, you often get asked what books there are about it.

On the MAPS DUL page it says I should use: FEATURE(rbl,`rbl.maps.vix.com',` Mail from $&{client_addr} rejected; see http://mail-abuse.org/cgi-bin/lookup?$&{client_addr}') FEATURE(rbl,`dul.maps.vix.com',` Mail from dial-up rejected; see http://mail-abuse.org/dul/enduser.htm') in my sendmail.cf file. So I have 3 questions. 1. How do I use the mrbl.p3 patch? 2. Adding the above 2 lines into my sendmail.cf causes sendmail to generate errors. 3. Are there other methods to prevent spam? I have restricted some domains/hosts in my host.allow file for sendmail. I imagin that if I use this MAPS system I shouldn't need to use that anymore.

For example: ifconfig_de0="inet 172.16.8.11 netmask 255.255.255.0" In your case (as someone else pointed out), you're going to need to figure out what subnet(s) you really want to use. First, you said: >> >Date: Thu, 14 Oct 1999 11:33:47 -0600 (MDT) >> >From: "Jason L. Schwab" >> >I run a 3.3-STABLE box on a T3 network, and I own 64 ips out of a c class >> >those 64 ips are between XXX.XXX.XXX.134 tho XXX.XXX.XXX.198... Now, .134 - .198 is 65 addresses, not 64. And neither 134 nor 198 is on a reasonable subnet boundary. Here: dec hex bin 128 80 1000 0000 129 81 1000 0001 ... 134 86 1000 0110 135 87 1000 0111 136 88 1000 1000 ... 191 bf 1011 1111 192 c0 1100 0000 193 c1 1100 0001 ... 197 c5 1100 0101 198 c6 1100 0110 199 c7 1100 0111 200 c8 1100 1000 Ideally, you could arrange to swap IP addresses around, so you could get .128 - .191; that's a nice, clean netmask of 255.255.255.192, with 62 usable host addresses. Alternatively, if you really have (and are stuck with) .134 - .198, you could split it up as: .134 - .135 Wasted .136 - .143 *.136/29; mask of 255.255.255.248 (6 usable host addresses) .144 - .159 *.144/28; mask of 255.255.255.240 (14 usable host addresses) .160 - .191 *.160/27; mask of 255.255.255.224 (30 usable host addresses) .192 - .195 *.192/30; mask of 255.255.255.252 (2 usable host addresses) .196 - .197 Wasted .198 Wasted (Recall that for each subnet, the "all 0s" host address denotes the (sub)net, and the "all 1s" host address denotes the broadcast address.) The above mess (except for the wasted addresses) could possibly be useful, but it's a bit of a stretch.

During boot DHCP seems to work fine, it gets the right addresses and everything. The problem is that it adds an extra route for 127.0.0.1 (from looking at netstat -r). Everything works fine except for X, I get arpresolve errors and it justs sits there.

And I couldn't find a solution for it. Greetings, Ronald. PS: Even minix does this better. :-) -- Ronald Klop http://node11a94.a2000.nl/~ronald/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Oct 14 23: 2:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ctlmailgw.comptel.com (ctlmailgw.comptel.com [192.102.20.151]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5318614D92 for ; Thu, 14 Oct 1999 23:02:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from stefan.parvu@comptel.com) Received: from mgw-in.comptel.com (unverified [192.102.20.150]) by ctlmailgw.comptel.com (Data Fellows SMTPRS 2.04) with ESMTP id ; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 08:54:57 +0300 Received: from xf174 ([195.237.135.174]) by mgw-in.comptel.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.197.19); Fri, 15 Oct 1999 08:55:24 +0300 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991015100136.00964690@miina.comptel.com> X-Sender: sparvu@miina.comptel.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Fri, 15 Oct 1999 10:01:36 -0700 To: sbcorey@azstarnet.com From: Stefan Parvu Subject: RE: 3.3 RELEASE FreeBSD distribution :( Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: References: <3.0.6.32.19991014125007.00916050@miina.comptel.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Well I did already.

The problem is that teaching mount about non-writable removable media isn't trivial enough for anyone to have done it any time during the long period of time for which we've known that this is a problem.

Since you already have 1600x1200 running OK, you should be able to play around with it. There's a detailled description in my "The Complete FreeBSD", and some of that is also in an article (not Daemon's Advocate) that I published at http://www.daemonnews.org/, but briefly you can play around with these values: Modeline "1600x1200" 198.000 Try increasing, say to 225. Your frame frequency will increase accordingly. 1600 1616 1776 2112 Decrease in steps of 16, but not lower than about 1808. Your frame frequency will increase inversely. 1200 1201 1204 1250 Decrease in steps of 1, but not lower than about 1210. Your frame frequency will increase inversely. +hsync +vsync I don't think you need these at all, but they won't have any effect on your display if you remove them. > Does anyone know where I can get a listing of modelines for standard > resolutions?

I've tried times to get O'Reilly interested. The last time was after this statement by Tim that they turned down a previous attempt, and were now regretting it. I'm talking to an editor at O'Reilly, and it's possible that we'll come up with a (Free)BSD systems administration book.

Well, I'm an O'Reilly author ("Porting UNIX Software"), and I disagree. I'd say that, for example, Addison-Wesley are more technical. The real problem with O'Reilly is that they had a disaster with the 4.4BSD manuals, and it took a long time for them to realise that this wasn't BSD's fault. > Bearing in mind they'll want to make some money on it, it's probably > fair, however it would be in FreeBSD's interests to probably put > this high priority. OK, for the sake of discussion, which publisher do you people prefer? Addison Wesley or O'Reilly? I'm also discussing a book with AW, and I could do with some input.

I own a lot of them, including obviusly "Porting UNIX Software" by a misknown australian authour :-) and less obviusly the 4.4BSD manuals, which I have to agree I don't like so much as the other books from them....

Okay, from the point of view of being a student at university, most of the books I remember reading (as mandatory course books) were Addison Wesley or Prentice Hall (I think that's right for the second one - but these could have been for Physics or math modules). However the only books I can honestly say I've bought since University were some of the O'Reilly X11 books and I almost bought the perl book, until I realised that the binary docs were good enough. Personally I prefer online documentation, but O'Reilly seem to have more of a reputation for technical books in the (perhaps small) circles I move. Which is why I mentioned O'Reilly (and because of the article/letter on the web from Tim O.) I think the focus on O'Reilly follows the "O'Reilly book on Internet Porn" joke picture that someone sent me. They do, whether accurate or not, have a reputation amongst some people (me included) for being those folks who write (all?) the computer books. > The real problem with O'Reilly is that they had a disaster with the > 4.4BSD manuals, and it took a long time for them to realise that this > wasn't BSD's fault.

Admittedly and Addison Wesley book might be better, but I can't think of anyone who'd collect all Addison Wesley books, whereas there are people/companies who might consider buying an entire set of O'Reilly books for a computing library. This would be good/better for FreeBSD, and that was my intent.

I've tried times to get O'Reilly interested. The last time was after this statement by Tim that they turned down a previous attempt, and were now regretting it. I'm talking to an editor at O'Reilly, and it's possible that we'll come up with a (Free)BSD systems administration book.

Since you already have 1600x1200 running OK, you should be able to play around with it. There's a detailled description in my "The Complete FreeBSD", and some of that is also in an article (not Daemon's Advocate) that I published at http://www.daemonnews.org/, but briefly you can play around with these values: Modeline "1600x1200" 198.000 Try increasing, say to 225. Your frame frequency will increase accordingly. 1600 1616 1776 2112 Decrease in steps of 16, but not lower than about 1808.

Well, I'm an O'Reilly author ("Porting UNIX Software"), and I disagree. I'd say that, for example, Addison-Wesley are more technical. The real problem with O'Reilly is that they had a disaster with the 4.4BSD manuals, and it took a long time for them to realise that this wasn't BSD's fault. > Bearing in mind they'll want to make some money on it, it's probably > fair, however it would be in FreeBSD's interests to probably put > this high priority. OK, for the sake of discussion, which publisher do you people prefer? Addison Wesley or O'Reilly? I'm also discussing a book with AW, and I could do with some input.

I have never had one, before, but, changed from an old Adaptec 1540A to a 1542CF controller, and anything more recent than Ol' 2.1.7.1 gives me a screeching signal 11 halt. That is what I get for using dinosaurian hardware (i.e., the wife's old windoz box) as a FreeBSD play box...(:+\\... But, I should probably brush up on what it means, exactly, and what is necessary to get it right..... Any pointers to the sig11 info are appreciated. I found a bit of a FAQ that suggests that memory timing might be the culprit. Can anyone explain why 2.1.7.1 might work and 2.2.6 and up would not? The boot floppies come up and the install begins, then, when disk writing occurs, it sig11's. Would adding a wait state be likely to help? I have plenty of spare ram chips, and was thinking about swapping some out for starters. Would clocking the machine from 33mhz to 20mhz make a difference, or suggest whether it was ram or maybe cache or such? Any insights are appreciated.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, For the first time in my bsd (3.2) box's long lifetime it locked hard with a reboot the sole cure. It locked while displaying an xscreensaver image. Which one escapes me for finding a displaying image remotely (telnet) is next to impossible unless you are sitting right on top of "monitor top" watching like a hawk. dmesg & /var/log/messages says xscreensaver exited with a (signal 10). I've set up xscreensaver to display either a blank screen or a couple of safe known images (lightning, forest and bubbles). The xscreensaver version is 3.17. I built this program from it's source and not the ports/build program. Could I have left out a known build time variable which may be important. The only autoconf/configure flags I've given it were "--without-pam & --with-xpm". The graphics adapter I have is a Matrox Mystique (4meg) and I'm running 3.3.5 as an xfree86 server. I realize the information I've given is a bit limited but at the moment I'm not on the machine in question. What I'm really looking for is a way for the bsd operating system to power down the monitor after x amount of idle time. Is that possible? If not I could always enable such in the cmos/bios. How about a screensaver or screen lock program substitute outside of xscreensaver, xlock(more) or beforelight? Sorry about the long winded blurb. Anything you could toss back at me related at all whatsoever to the above would be great... - William To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 15 8:23:26 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from chumbly.math.missouri.edu (chumbly.math.missouri.edu [128.206.72.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 60C5D15413 for ; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 08:23:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rich@chumbly.math.missouri.edu) Received: (from rich@localhost) by chumbly.math.missouri.edu (8.9.1a/8.9.1) id KAA03410 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 10:23:23 -0500 (CDT) From: Rich Winkel Message-Id: <199910151523.KAA03410@chumbly.math.missouri.edu> Subject: Sendmail won't use NIS aliases To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 15 Oct 1999 10:23:23 -0500 (CDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm running 3.3-stable and I can't get sendmail to use nis aliases. /etc/service.switch: hosts files nis dns aliases files nis What else do I need to do??

I'm not sure if this information will be helpful (caveat user), but I have a Sony GDM-F500, and this little exchange of email spurred me to figure out what it runs like in 1600x1200 resolution. (Usually I run at 1280x1024.) My display card is a Matrox Millenium G400 16MB. I ran XF86Setup, then on the appropriate screen, I input the horizontal and vertical frequencies from the monitor specifications (30-121 kHz horizontal, 48-160 Hz vertical). The end result is that I'm now staring at a 1600x1200 screen with an 86 Hz vertical refresh frequency. Looks like it can also do 1280x1024 at 100 Hz. I don't think you'll be able to use my modelines verbatim, but here they are anyways: Modeline "1600x1200" 220.00 1600 1616 1808 2080 1200 1204 1207 1244 +hsync +vsync Modeline "1280x1024" 181.75 1280 1312 1440 1696 1024 1031 1046 1072 -hsync -vsync Hope this helps...

There was no support for these cards in the version that shipped with FreeBSD 3.2 (my current flavour). The latest release of XFree86 has support for these cards. As I type it's building on my FreeBSD box. :-) I had the same problems with Red Hat and 3.3.5 of XFree got past it so I assume that FreeBSD & XFree will provide the same relief. So I'd suggest that you try the same or wait for a copy of FreeBSD 3.3 which, I assume, has the later version of XFree incorporated.

Just starting out with vinum, I've read vinum(4) and vinum(8). I'm trying to create a mirrored volume of 2 x 9GB drives. These drives are /dev/da1s1e and /dev/da2s1e, and are pristine, newfs'd volumes. I don't mount them on boot either, as I quickly discovered vinum dumps core if you try to operate on mount devices. Looking at vinum(8), in "HOW TO SET UP VINUM" section 2, I created a config file /etc/vinum.cf containing drive d1 device /dev/da2e drive d2 device /dev/da3e volume mirror plex org concat sd length 10m drive d1 plex org concat sd length 10m drive d2 The 10m is just to avoid waiting an age to find out what happens. I do bash 2.03# vinum create -v /etc/vinum.cf 1: drive d1 device /dev/da2e Well, after about 30 minutes, I ^C'd this as nothing more had happened. I decided to clear out any cruft with bash 2.03# vinum resetconfig Enter Text -> NO FUTURE and it's been over an hour and the command doesn't seem to have completed. What's happening? I don't understand why this is taking so long. I'm becoming confused! Thanks for any help, Adam.

We are a MS shop, no doubt about that, so this will be an uphill battle, but I believe that with the right info, I can get FreeBSD as the firewall. Aside from the fact that FreeBSD will cost less to set up, will allow us to use that old P100 we have put on the shelf and will cost less to maintain.....can you people supply me with some more valid reasons to go with FreeBSD over MS? And, yes, I know ftp.cdrom.com and yahoo.com all use FreeBSD, as well as MS Hotmail service, but I am looking for some corporate types out there who had to convince their bosses that FreeBSD was a better choice to help me on this.

First, the product of 'grep umountall /var/log/messages' on the machine with the mysterious messages, Oct 6 09:12:29 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 7 08:54:56 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 8 09:41:23 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 11 09:00:38 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 11 09:51:44 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 12 09:12:08 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 12 11:32:36 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 13 09:15:09 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 13 10:13:06 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 14 09:34:30 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 14 10:54:54 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Oct 15 08:59:44 backmail mountd[6907]: umountall request from 198.138.229.3 from unprivileged port Now, I looked to see if I got such messages on another FreeBSD machine with mountd listening for requests. It has no such messages (it is 2.2.8-STABLE, the machine with messages is 3.3-STABLE), but something caught my eye, Oct 6 09:16:12 newmail timed[94]: measure: curly.scitec.com did not respond Oct 7 08:55:31 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 8 09:45:16 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 11 08:59:14 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 11 09:55:37 newmail timed[94]: measure: curly.scitec.com did not respond Oct 12 09:14:31 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 12 11:34:31 newmail timed[94]: measure: curly.scitec.com did not respond Oct 13 09:18:40 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 13 10:16:48 newmail timed[94]: measure: curly.scitec.com did not respond Oct 14 09:38:30 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond Oct 14 10:54:31 newmail timed[94]: measure: pc252.scitec.com did not respond Oct 15 09:01:12 newmail timed[94]: measure: lucy.scitec.com did not respond (You actually get three reports spaced by 4 minutes for each unresponsive timed slave, but I have cut the second two for clarity.) As one quickly sees, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the umountall requests and machines leaving the network. curly and lucy are SGIs, an Indigo at IRIX 6.2 and an Octane at IRIX 6.5, respectively. They are brought down regularly for OS/HDD switches as one can see above. pc252 is a fellow FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE machine that needed to boot into Windoze for a few hours (bleh). Given the close correlation of machines shutting down with umountall messages, I feel confident that they are the initial cause for the message. Given the wide variety of hardware and OSs causing the messages, I have to believe the backmail machine is the one behaving inappropriately, and not malformed or otherwise erronious output from the other machines. Finally, I should note that no other NFS servers, IRIX or FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE produce such messages. Is this a bug in the 3.x mountd? Or is another process doing something bad and mountd is properly logging the problem and ignoring it?... Or am I completely off? -- Crist J.

Also, for comparitive reasons, the trade publications will have lots of information in pretty, colourful columns. FreeBSD is often used as the basis for commercial firewall products. Here are two that spring to mind. Watchguard Firebox II, et.al.: http://www.watchguard.com/ Very pretty box. Bright red, small, slim. Three sets of "Das Blinkenlights", one for each NIC, are arranged in a triangle on the front make for lots of flashing lights. GNAT Box (more interesting) http://www.globaltech.co.uk/frames.htm Software costs UKP1K. Unlike Firewall-1 (UKP 5-6K), it doesn't require NT or Solaris as well, and unlike FW-1 it will guarantee unlimited IP adddresses. You use a fromnt-end programme to define a policy, then it writes a floppy for you! You go to a PC, boot the floppy and you have a firewall. This is annoying because for some time I was considering building a HDD-less firewall, that booted from a write-protected floppy. NT-based solutions tend to do worse in comparative reviews of commercial products. And whgat about the average of one or two MS security bulletins I get per month that are NT server related? What about the reboots if you so much as move your mouse pointer? I'm sure you'll be hearing from others on this one!

(First, validate their opinions) NT is a great OS for end users, it certainly provides enough security (etc) for our end-users requirements. However, this firewall application is not part of user-space at all, and all of the extras that we pay for with NT (such as the gui, and all of the built-in web browser stuff) really goes to waste on a network appliance such as a firewall. With an NT solution we need a monitor and mouse and keyboard and access to the console for any maintenance. With a FBSD solution, we would be able to easily strip out any unneeded components, saving memory and such, meaning we have to buy less of a machine, and we can boot it off of a dumb terminal, who needs a VGA monitor for a firewall? Also, the ability to securely administer the box remotely is a big plus. With only ssh running on it, we can safely admin it from anywhere, in the middle of the night. If we ever decide to move the box to a colo then we'd be all set. Sure, Unix isn't as friendly as NT and whatnot, but like I said, this isn't user-space. A well setup BSD firewall will require far less in terms of security patching, and we have much better accountability for what is actually running and what isn't. (maybe a veiled mention of the NSA key, and a hint at how that type of thing is impossible in BSD) NT is designed as a multi-purpose OS. Unix easily allows us to tune our box into a specialized firewall-only piece of equipment, without the overhead of 'Active Desktop'. Point out that a Stable Release of FBSD need not ever be upgraded (beyond occasional patching), and that there are plenty of production 2.X machines out there, because there's no need to fix what isn't broken. And when the 'support' issue comes up; That may have been the case as little as year ago, but I can assure you that now, today, we would have no problem finding someone with Unix expertise that would be HAPPY to run this should I get hit by a truck. And security consulting firms have a great deal of experience in dealing with FBSD, OBSD and BSDi boxen. Now, if you actually BRING the box. Do a ps ax, and say, there, that is EVERYTHING this box is doing. Every little thing. And tell him what each of those programs is. Ask someone to do the same with NT. They can get task manager, but not even an MCSE knows what all of those executables is doing. Demonstrate upping an interface, downing it, changing it's address and upping it again. Do it a few times. Show them how easy it is, and how it doesn't crash. Throw five NICs in the box and boot it, show them what it means to live without IRQ conflicts. Additionally, point out that with Tripwire, Snort and Swatch you can have very effective and FREE intrusion detection. An EXPENSIVE option in the NT world. Show them the output of nmap -sT -sU -f -O on an NT box and an FBSD box. There. HTH And, yes, some of this is s little on the BS side, but that's the way to play the game. /ASBESTOS SUIT ON I want to take a small line to say that might want to consider OpenBSD for this, IPF is nicer IMHO, and OBSD has a working IPSEC implementation which could possibly be a big selling point. /ASBESTOS SUIT OFF Sincerely, Joe Pepin ~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Joe Pepin Network Systems Engineer Security Practice Lucent Technologies NetCare Professional Services http://www.lucent.com/NetCare The views/opinions expressed above are not necessarily those of my employer, but they probably should be. ~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= > At 2:30PM (West Coast Time) I am going to a meeting at > work with the Head of Computer Security, 2 NT Admins and two people in charge of the project I am working on.

But I have to admit that a large portion of their books are for the mid range knowledge on the subject. However many of those are great resources, the the Camel book for Perl. I recently bought the MySQL/mSQL book and I was really disappointed. This is one book that I wonder what O'Reilly was thinking. I realize it may be hard because I've been spoiled by the great online docs for MySQL, but I was really hoping for something that would have more in depth info on stuff like scaling issues, replicating DB's, and such. > OK, for the sake of discussion, which publisher do you people prefer? > Addison Wesley or O'Reilly?

There are many ways to get it going: (assuming a fairly new version of FreeBSD) /stand/sysinstall Configure Console Saver Daemon ---OR--- kldload daemon_saver.ko (set timeout with 'vidcontrol -t N' where N is in seconds, default is 300) this will not persist if you reboot, use the next one for that ---OR--- add the lines to /etc/rc.conf : saver="daemon" blanktime="300" and reboot to enable or use #2 solution as well ---THAT'S IT--- ways you might have figured this out yourself: man screensaver look through /etc/defaults/rc.conf, that is where most of the system configuration is done (well, the changes gets put in /etc/rc.conf, but you get my drift). search the FAQ, Handbook, and mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search (normally this is your first choice but in this case I found most of the information to be irrelavent or grossly outdated) Please try to find the solution yourself before resorting to a mailing list.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but if you are not capable of determining the version number of a unix system then you need to get a qualified professional to assist you. That said, the FreeBSD project's Y2K statement can be found on our web page at http://www.freebsd.org/. I would say that you should definitely plan an upgrade, which should consist of purchasing FreeBSD 3.3-Release CD's, backing up all the important data on your machine, installing 3.3 from scratch, restoring your data and starting from there.

To make things more complicated, when I run tcpdump I can see the attempts from the windows machines on the BSD box with the proper ips.

It's the physical location of the partition on the harddrive. You would need to re-partition the harddrive. The best thing to do is to re-partition your drive so that any OS's you have installed have bootable partitions withing the 1st 1024 cylinders. E.g. lets assume you have windows and FreeBSD. Make a reasonable sized DOS primary partition, make a FreeBSD partition that's large enough to hold your root partition (40MB or so).

I regenerated a kernel with: ___device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" flags 0x10 tty irq 4 ___device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 ___device sio2 at isa? port "IO_COM3" flags 0x20000 tty irq 5 and the card is jumpered so that one of the serial ports is "COM3" at IRQ 5. I can talk to the modem using ppp's "term" command, so I know it's hooked up. I'm trying to configure it to take incoming calls and have told getty to set the speed to 230400, but it gets errors like this: Oct 15 12:32:36 ns1 getty[479]: tcsetattr /dev/ttyd2: Invalid argument and mgetty gets similar results. My /var/log/messages file shows this: Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio0: type 16550A Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio1: type 16550A Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio2 at 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa Oct 15 12:25:27 ns1 /kernel: sio2: type 16550A Shouldn't it tell me 'flags 0x20000' and/or '16650' there? Any suggestions on setting this up (other than set the speed to 115200 instead of 230400)? I can set it to 115200 to continue with the setup, but it would be real nice to get it set to 230K or higher longer term...

I found the message included below all the recipe I needed to get my SB PCI64 going under 3.2R. Even though a PCI device, the pcm driver supports it. 2 additional notes:- 1) the pca device referred to below appears not be needed; 2) make sure to note which pcm device (usually pcm1) is created by the kernel, so that you can MAKEDEV the right devices. ====8<====8<====8<==== From erik@habatech.no Fri Oct 15 21:12:00 1999 Date: Mon, 12 Apr 1999 19:11:55 +0200 (CEST) From: erik@habatech.no To: "Viren R.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think MS even has a firewall solution. Last time I checked, they were very carefully avoiding any suggestion that Proxy Server might be used as a firewall.

Somehow, installing FBSD somehow damaged linux partitions, which resided inside an extended partition. Today I attempted recovering linux installation. I swear that I only touched the damaged partitions to install files into there. I *did not* install lilo or any other loader (set it up to load from a floppy). Well, as you might have guessed, FBSD won't boot anymore. :^( Please point me where to look for answers, why this happened? How do I repair FBSD's loader? My setup is as follows: /dev/hda1 FreeBSD (a5) /dev/hda2 Linux native (83) /dev/hda3 Linux swap (82) /dev/hda4 Extended (5) /dev/hda5 Linux native (bootable) (83) /dev/hda6 Linux native (83) /dev/hda7 Linux native (83) Sorry, I haven't learned how FBSD names its partitions. The drive is the first IDE drive on a primary controller. I think that wd0s1a is the FreeBSD's / partition.

While experimenting, I managed to hang my 3.3R too, but there is one more interesting thing that I found out. I `newfs' an empty floppy. Then remove it from the drive, and write-protect it. I mount the disk as read-write with # mount /dev/fd0 /mnt and I try to create a file on the disk, say with a command like: # echo > /mnt/test_file Then, although the command fails with an 'Input/output error' the kernel will keep retrying to write the data on disk, effectively making it impossible to umount the disk, without some dirty trick. And it will keep retrying every few seconds or so. Trying to `umount' the disk will try to sync before the unmounting takes place, and it fails too. The only way out is to remove the disk from the drive, write-unprotect it, put it back in and letting the kernel do it's job of writing to the disk. What the kernel does, i.e. try to put the data on disk, and keep retrying, is probably the Right Thing(tm) since that is the job of the kernel, to make sure it serves the requests of other programs. All this would probably work fine, if mount could realize somehow that the floppy is write protected and avoid telling the kernel to mount it read-write. Perhaps, the kernel could try and detect if the disk is protected and return an error to the mount() call that the mount program executes. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "That field hath eyen, and the wood hath ears."

If you can live without the linux installation, you can always use fdisk to tag the linux partition as a BSD slice, then disklabel to create a new partition in the slice, and newfs to format and prepare it for mounting under your BSD root filesystem somewhere. On the other hand, if you can't live without linux, I would recommend backing up the linux partition to some removable media, then playing around with some parts of your partition table, etc. However, this process is tricky and very prone to devastating errors, so ... ahem, you should be careful. Backing up and reinstalling is also an option, but I don't know if this is an acceptable one in your case. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "That field hath eyen, and the wood hath ears."

I have sendmail configured with the "masquearde as" well as the masquerade envelope options. I masquerade as "oldserver.demon.nl", which is a fully qualified domain name. Since I have changed my sendmail config (earlier I used the option in Pine to masquerade), my messages to freebsd.org are deferred. I get warnings about this from the mailder-daemon.

I also looked through the archives of this list, as I had a vague recollection someone else asked about this earlier this month, but I cannot find it. For the record: a message posted in reply to a query on the list dies arrives in the mailbox of the person who asked (I know because a reply to it pops up in the list), the cc does not get to the list...

Believe me, there are thousands of people reading this list with SCSI subsystems that work. Your argument is the same as the ``I keep getting SIGBUS or SIGSEGV when I compile'' argument. People have been complaining about it for years.... this doesn't mean it's a software problem. Really, the best way to deal with this sort of thing is to spend lots of time swapping parts in and out of machines. Of course it helps if you have more than one machine.... not a luxury that everyone has. I have an external SCSI box that you can borrow for a while, along with a known good cable and a terminator block. It'd be worth moving your disk into that and seeing if the problem goes away. If it does, it's either a cabling problem or a problem with the internal bus. If it doesn't, I'm willing to swap a 1542B for your card :-] Give me a shout when I'm back from FreeBSDCon.... > regards, > Ian -- Brian Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check out http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: How to answer a question ============================ Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. Use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. 11. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt.

This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

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 book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6.

Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

I am a college unix systems administrator. In the near future, one of the departments I work for is planning to get new fileserver(s) to replace their current AlphaServer 2100 5/300 running DUX. The kind of system I'm recommending will be one or more i386-type systems with lots of memory and disk, and possibly multi-cpu if that's wise. Because I am familiar with *BSD-type operating systems from an admin point of view, and because my experience to date with the reliability of at least one BSD-derivative (NetBSD), I am advocating we go with a *BSD-based solution for our fileserving needs. A number of friends at ISPs have used both NetBSD and FreeBSD under combat conditions, and have reported very favorably on how these systems perform under load, so I am comfortable recommending either. [1] Is anyone running FreeBSD as a departmental fileserver in a university environment? The kind of load I'm looking at is pretty modest -- let's say 50 unix systems as nfs clients, and up to 100 windows systems as smb clients, concurrently. The kinds of things users do during peak load times are writing code via the familiar edit-compile-bomb-cycle. I know about the ftp.cdrom.com setup, and am wondering if FreeBSD does fileserving as well as it does ftp serving... :-) [2] If you do use FreeBSD as a fileserver, is having a second CPU advantageous? If a second CPU is really a win, then I can push for the new server box to be a dual cpu unit. [3] My understanding at the moment is that FreeBSD uses a Big Lock to ensure only one kernel thread/CPU combination is active at at a time. Is this correct? (If it is, then it doesn't seem like multiple CPUs really will be that big of a win; if this isn't correct, then I have News for the person who told me this... :-) Why [2] and [3] are of interest, is that right now, the SMP question is the one visible difference I see that could make FreeBSD a better fit than my other alternative (NetBSD), which does not have SMP support at this time. The primary advantages of NetBSD for me, are simply that I've used it for a while, and that I can run NetBSD comfortably on all my current unix client systems (say, 30 AXP + 30 i386 boxes) With FreeBSD as a server, I still have to run DUX or something else (NetBSD) on my AXP clients. With NetBSD as a server, I can run the same OS on the unix clients + server(s), which makes the admin tasks a little more straightforward.

Jeff, part of the problem is that by referencing some obscure Lilo option you aren't giving us enough to work on. I hack on FreeBSD on a daily basis and only once have I ever messed with Lilo. A web search for "Lilo vga 792" didn't give me anything I could use. If you want help then giving us URLs to the Linux howto(s) would be great.

I am a beginner at this ipfw/natd game but here are my suggestions: 1. You need more than "a single ipfw rule". In my own setup at work I needed to run natd on the firewall to do the port forwarding from the firewall to the internal host. Plus I needed to add one or two rules to rc.firewall, as you have, but watch out, the rules can have strange and unforseen effects. Plus I needed to add a default route on the internal host pointing back to the firewall. There must be better ways but I could not understand the natd documentation well enough to figure out how to use it as a proxy. Be aware that this port aliasing may not work well with some protocols (ssh hated it). 2. It might help to post your question to a list where it is more visible such as freebsd-ipfw or freebsd-security. By the way, I am using 3.2 at work but ipfw and natd on my 2.2.8 at home seem very similar. -- David May | mailto:mayd@cygnus.uwa.edu.au | Finger for | finger:mayd@cygnus.uwa.edu.au | PGP Public Key | http://cygnus.uwa.edu.au/~mayd | ``We are so used to thinking in terms of the `progress' of science that it is hard for us to remember that certain matters were better understood one hundred years ago.''

I need to now install freebsd. From what I have gathered, I need to get the "floppies" and create them with fdimage.exe. The only problem is, I can't make the boot.flp file into a disk because it's too big for my 1.44 mb floppy disks. How can I get the files for a boot disk so I can install freebsd, or is there some installation file I can download?

The least port one would want is something to go fix up /stand and /stand/sysinstall to know where things now live. The other obvious, and hopefully possible, thing to do is to gum up the FTP tree with links that keep as many prior installations viable as possible. Just because I am one release level behind, I shouldn't have to drop what I'm doing to figure out what to change to make /stand/sysinstall be able to fetch things correctly. That program was designed to make support easy for FreeBSD - it should stay as easy. Just an idea. -ecsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Oct 15 23:24:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dt050n71.san.rr.com (dt050n71.san.rr.com [204.210.31.113]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 59C0E152FF for ; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 23:22:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Received: from gorean.org (master [10.0.0.2]) by dt050n71.san.rr.com (8.9.3/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA60900; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 23:21:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Message-ID: <38081957.9BACF7F3@gorean.org> Date: Fri, 15 Oct 1999 23:21:11 -0700 From: Doug Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT-0927 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Matthias Teege Cc: gordon link , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: v.2.2.7 References: <3805DCB5.382C@earthlink.net> <19991015163843.B26594@moon.mteege.de> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Matthias Teege wrote: > > On Thu, Oct 14, 1999 at 06:37:57AM -0700, gordon link wrote: > > I recently purschased a copy of the complete free bsd (2nd edition) and > > I wanted to know if it is Y2K COMPLIANT.

But i dont get so much information there, is there any newbie guide or any tutorial i can read on the web about how to configure the GENERIC file ? I just installed a SB 16 PnP card in my computer, after i installed FreeBSD, and it seems to be very hard and difficult to get it to work, and i hafto compile the GENERIC file to get my SB card to work, is there any tutorial i can read on the web about how to do this ?

However, I've gotten the system into an interesting state and am a bit puzzled about what to do next. First, the machine being upgraded has /usr/src NFS mounted, /usr/obj is local on a removable SCSI HDD (Jaz). Since the 'make upgrade' procedure takes quite a long time, and I was not sure at all that it would go flawlessly (mostly worried about network burps), I made sure I got a successful 'make aout-to-elf-build' first. Well, I did that and then did the 'make aout-to-elf-install move-aout-libs' before leaving the office yesterday. But that did not work. I thought that a 'make world'-type procedure did _all_ of the work in the /usr/obj directory, but I found out that the kernel build portion of the process still uses /usr/src/compile. I did not have the NFS mount 'maproot' set for that possibility. So, the install died. Now I have been trying to restart it, but the kernel build keeps failing (output attached at the bottom). The problem seems to be that the 'aicasm' executable it is building is ELF, # file sys/compile/PC252/aicasm sys/compile/PC252/aicasm: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped But I am still running a a.out kernel, right? What the heck do I do now to recover my 2.2.8 or finish the 3.3 install? And how did I manage to screw this up? Thanks for any help.

It's the best part of FreeBSD's docs. Check it out at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/index.html If you still have problems then try http://www.vmunix.com/fbsd-book The instructions here include screen shots. It's good to read this stuff to make sure you do it right (also buy a copy of Greg Leheys "Complete FreeBSD" book). But, just to save you some time right now, I'll tell you that boot.flp is a floppy image for a 2.88Mb disk. For 1.44Mb disks you need to make two disks. Use the fdimage.exe in the tools folder and use the images kern.flp and mfsroot.flp to make your disks. Boot off the kern.flp and you will be prompted to insert the mfsroot.flp. Also, you might consider getting the CDROMs. I paid 29 bucks for mine at Fry's Electronics (here in California) and it saved me tons of time in downloading and in waiting for slooooowwwww floppys. Keep in mind that FreeBSD is a reading-intensive OS. You will do a lot more reading to get it to work for you.

After that it works flawlessly. Perhaps the protocol number needs to be made configurable? Should I submit a patch to make it a command-line option?

I found a binary application which runs natively on FreeBSD, SCO, Linux and a couple of others which can read (and INTERACT) with a serial port: "SCom" QTek, http://www.sensorsoft.com not only do they sell this extremely functional serial communication program, they also sell temperature sensors, humidity sensors, remote power on/off switches which can all be read using SCom, and which can also be read remotely over the net (if you set up SCom in inetd.conf) I didn't read your application for which you need DOS, but perhaps you can do the whole solution using FreeBSD? -- Jim Pazarena mailto:paz@ccstores.com http://www.qcislands.net/paz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 16 11:35:11 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from totally.morphed.com (totally.morphed.com [207.66.106.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A5DA7154EF; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 11:35:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from skalir@totally.morphed.com) Received: from localhost (skalir@localhost) by totally.morphed.com (8.9.3/8.9.2) with ESMTP id MAA49054; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 12:35:04 -0600 (MDT) (envelope-from skalir@totally.morphed.com) Date: Sat, 16 Oct 1999 12:35:04 -0600 (MDT) From: "Jason L.

[IVMHO it's mainly the small companies that do this.] Well, I would have thought that O'Reilly was pretty well used to this area. I was surprised that they miscalculated. Maybe it's because they're not a small company any more. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Was attempting an install from DOS partition, as per instructions, ad everything seemed to be going fine. the system is a fast (if the word can be used in this context) 486dx with standard (if the word ever really applies) PCI bus / IDE hdd ports. the install routine after the first floppy boot seemed to be running normally, but when it came to transferring the system files from the dos partition, after the various configuration / slice allocation screens, the app came back with an error message, saying "You will have problems booting from this hard-drive". The message appeared some 20 seconds or so after the routine appeared to begin copying over the system (or attempting to at least). I am really not sure what to do next, since I was fairly sure I had set all the options correctly and done the right setup work beforehand, and the guides I downloaded with the release 3.3 dist. dont seem to cover the problem.

Thanks in advance! I have just configured a similar network after much pain, grief and a lot of help from the mailing list - but not forgetting my own stupidity... If the FreeBSD box appear in Network Neighborhood then to two machines *are* talking. Presumably you can mount Windows shares successfully using: smbclient \\\\\\ But just what are you pinging? By name or IP address? If it's by name have you set up the names/IP addresses in Windows/hosts? - and do you have a similar etc/hosts file in FreeBSD?

Yes, tripwire does exactly what you want, is free and there is a port for it.

Depending on what environment you're in you might want to invest in some good books on system administration. For freebsd specific knowldege "The Complete FreeBSD" is your best bet, available from WC Archive, and lots of other places. For more general topics "Essential System Administration" from O'Reilly is indispensable.

With a stock FreeBSD install i'm suspecting that some software on the win95 machine may be tripping you up. I also noticed that the pn0 is saying "full duplex" since you are on a hub it should be set to half-duplex: ifconfig pn0 mediaopt half-duplex then try again. you may want to put that at the end of your ifconfig line in /etc/rc.conf. good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 16 16:28:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from post.mail.nl.demon.net (post-11.mail.nl.demon.net [194.159.73.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 44A1514D89 for ; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 16:28:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marc@oldserver.demon.nl) Received: from [212.238.105.241] (helo=propro) by post.mail.nl.demon.net with esmtp (Exim 2.12 #1) id 11cdGb-000E0A-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 23:29:38 +0000 Date: Sun, 17 Oct 1999 01:28:43 +0200 (CEST) From: Marc Schneiders To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: telnetd: All network ports in use 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 Box (386) running 3.3 RC. Telnet is not working. It is working on a similar 386 box, with same version of FreeBSD installed. Ttyp's are ok, they are there in /dev and I remade them, doing MAKEDEV pty7. /etc/ttys is also ok. I had set maxusers to 10, but increased that to 24. Telnet localhost and telnetting from another host give the same: Escape character is '^]'. telnetd: All network ports in use. Connection closed by foreign host. Ftp *is* working. Telnet to port 25, when sendmail is running, also works! The only cause for this strange behaviour I can think of, is the fact that all filesystems except / are on an NFS-server, as the harddisk was a bit small. However, I cannot understand why. Telnet is working on port 25, why not on port 23? Anyone?

What does 'ps lawx' say? Output to a file and then attach it. After that, reboot your machine and try the 'vinum create' again. If it hangs, I'd like to see the output of 'ps lawx' at that point.

No. The information you supply isn't enough. If you only had this problem once, we'll never find out. If it happens more frequently, you'll need the following: 1. A kernel with debugging symbols. You build a debug kernel like this: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # config -g MYKERNEL (substitute the name of your config file, GENERIC by default) # cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL # make depend # make # cp kernel kernel.debug (these two lines are # strip -g kernel new) # make install 2. Ensure that dumping is enabled. You should have a line line this in your /etc/rc.conf: dumpdev=/dev/wd0b Substitute the name of your swap partition for /dev/wd0b. 3. Ensure you have a directory /var/crash, and that the file system has enough space for a dump and a kernel (about 12 MB more than your memory size). If you have another panic, you should then get a useful dump in /var/crash. There's a section about debugging it in the online handbook. If you still have trouble, ask us again.

Will whoever is supporting/maintaining the `fdisk' program *PLEASE* fix it so that it displays some sort of a warning when the user is just about to partition a SCSI drive for which the on/off status of BIOS address trans- lation (for disks larger than 1GB) _cannot_ be automatically and properly determined by fdisk itself? You have no idea how annoying and aggravating it is to spend half a day installing a whole new fresh FreeBSD only to find out (after you are all done) that the damn thing won't even boot because fdisk defaulted to assuming a disk geometry that is just plain wrong/dysfunctional. And of course, to add insult to injury, it ain't even all that obvious what the hell is actually wrong when this sort of mistake gets made. The `booteasy' boot manager just sits there, stupidly, prompting you to hit `F1' while it endlessly just beeps at you. That's it. Just endless beeping. No error message, no nuttin'. At first, I thought that I had a bad keyboard or something, and thus, I tried swapping it for another one! (But of course, that made no difference.) This is not my idea of ``user friendly''. If `booteasy' is unable to boot from a given drive or from a given partition, couldn't it at least say something like `Error 473 - Return to continue'? I mean I _do_ understand that memory space in the boot routine is very minimal, but at least there should be room for something small like that! Then, in addition, _someplace_ (e.g. in man pages and/or on the FreeBSD.Org website) there could be a description of `Error 473' that says something like ``This error (473) means that you probably bozoed the geometry on your SCSI drive when you partitioned it. Back up and try again.'' That would be at least a little bit more friendly that the current behavior (of booteasy) which is just to sit there and beep at you as if you've got a broken keyboard or something. Sorry if this letter sounds too negative. I'm _am_ a big fan of the OS, but as noted above, it is REALLY annoying to learn that you've wasted half a day because of errors and warnings that you DIDN'T get.

One piece of advice often given is to put a dos partition on the disk (it can be deleted during install if wish) to assist with determining the correct geometry. I've installed FreeBSD on probably a close to a dozen scsi hard drives and never had this problem. I didn't think bios address translation was relevant for scsi drives, in any case. Try the dos partition.

What's fdisk? Oh, you mean you don't run your drive(s) in "dangerously" dedicated mode?

There is a total of 446 Bytes available, of which currently six bytes are unused. The code is in /sys/boot/i386/boot0/, if you have installed the kernel source.

Other backslash combinations are passed as is, i.e. PS1="\h:\w:\\\$ " produces the intended result. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 16 21:31:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news.rdc1.tx.home.com (ha2.rdc1.tx.home.com [24.4.0.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4E7B0150BC for ; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 21:31:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pdavis99@home.com) Received: from c41404a ([24.8.17.244]) by news.rdc1.tx.home.com (InterMail v4.01.01.00 201-229-111) with SMTP id <19991017043109.DWTR318.news.rdc1.tx.home.com@c41404a> for ; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 21:31:09 -0700 From: "Paul Davis" To: Subject: IPFW question Date: Sat, 16 Oct 1999 22:31:05 -0600 Message-ID: <000101bf1858$6da0b2e0$1e01a8c0@aurora1.co.home.com> 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 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, I've got a little problem that I hope someone could help me with. I'm running 3.3-Stable with ipfw running along with natd, two NIC cards one to the outside world and the other connecting to a hub with a windows98 and a SCO UnixWare 7 box. Firewall type is set to open for right now. The problem I'm having is as soon as I started running ipfw I noticed a HUGH amount of netbios udp packets being broadcast out to port 137 and 138 on subnet 24.6.241.255 (for example there are a couple of other segments I seem to be broadcasting to.) I thought possibly I had some windows networking stuff turned on but I don't have anything installed on the FreeBSD box that uses netbios, I have ports 136-139 turned off in services and inetd.conf. If I disconnect my internal network and reboot FreeBSD it still sends the packets. I tried setting up packet filtering rules to kill out going packet to ports 136-139 but I'm not getting the syntax right or something. The ipfw man page is not quite helpful enough, I can't find much about ipfw in the handbook and the FAQ was less than helpful. Where can I find some good documentation on using ipfw or could some kind soul help me with the syntax to kill packets going out to certain ports? BTW I've tried to just deny all netbios packets but that seems to kill natd. I don't know help....:) Paul Davis To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Oct 16 21:38:17 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imo14.mx.aol.com (imo14.mx.aol.com [198.81.17.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A57614C14 for ; Sat, 16 Oct 1999 21:38:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ATeslik@aol.com) Received: from ATeslik@aol.com by imo14.mx.aol.com (mail_out_v23.6.) id mXYDa02561 (4543); Sun, 17 Oct 1999 00:38:03 -0400 (EDT) From: ATeslik@aol.com Message-ID: <0.29369e68.253aacaa@aol.com> Date: Sun, 17 Oct 1999 00:38:02 EDT Subject: Re: can't ping win95 machine To: zdenko@cs.uh.edu, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: AOL 4.0 for Windows 95 sub 26 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >>have you check for irq conflicts? I checked for irq conflicts. No problems. I'm starting to think that mabye it's the pn0 driver. The card is a Linksys LNE100TXII. Now, the pn0 driver gives support for the LNE100TX, but with the LNE100TXII they added the wake on lan feature and, more importantly, started using three different chipsets on the card. The windows driver you download from their site depends on the chipset on the card. This is all according to Linksys's website. Does anyone have this card, and if so, what kind of luck are you having with it? On the other hand I'm thinking no problem because 'ifconfig -a' says: pn0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 87:ff:87:ff:87:ff media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP ) supported media: autoselect 100baseT4 100baseTX 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP lp0: flags=8810 mtu 1500 tun0: flags=8010 mtu 1500 ppp0: flags=8010 mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 I just don't know anymore.

Yes, if I had known about this trick _before_ got myself into trouble, it would have been helpful. But I didn't, so it wasn't. But anyway, I shouldn't have to stoop to actually handling floppies that contain... dare I say it... (yecch, gag) software from REDMOND WASHINGTON! (I always worry when _I_ have to come into physical contact with such things, let alone bringing them into contact with my hard drives. I mean hey, I don't want to get CONTAMINATED! Remember what happend to those people in that Tokyo subway? This MS stuff is all really icky phoo as far as I'm concerned. I'm not kidding. I don't like touching that stuff. It's like a disease. It sticks to you, and its tuff to get off, even with a big green bar of LAVA.) More to the point of course, I don't want to waste disk space for an MS-DOG partition that I am *never* going to use. Even more to the point: This is (apparently) a known ``gotcha'', i.e. the fact that the FreeBSD `fdisk' will guess wrong about the geometry of SCSI drives and then blithely let you go thru a whole install process with NO HOPE of ever being able to boot what you are installing. This is exactly the kind of place where it would be just polite to put up the software equivalent of a big red flashing sign saying ``CAUTION! LAND MINE AHEAD! WATCH WHERE YOU STEP!''
