Well, it might have been failing for a while, and finally run out of replacement blocks for all the bad ones. Modern drives do bad block replacement automatically in the background, so when they start whining about read errors you probably really do have a problem :-( Fsck just verifies filesystem integrity -- ie, that all your files and directories are glued together properly. I don't think it ever needs to read every block on the disk so it's not necessarily going to turn up any hardware problems. Although it might; I've certainly had failed disks that would fail a fsck -- I guess it just depends where the bad blocks are. > Also since I'm on an extremely low budget I'm not exactly looking forward > to going out and buying a new harddrive.

You can probably download some kind of disk checking software from your drive manufacturer's web site. That should at least tell you whether you do have a hardware problem or not, and the manufacturers often like to see the results from such tests when you send a drive in for warranty replacement. If the drive fails and it's still under warranty, time to get a new one for free; if not, well... BTW, the drive tester may well offer to do some kind of low-level format on the drive to 'repair' it. This may well appear to work, but if my experience is anything to go by, a genuinely bad drive will just start failing again soon after, so I wouldn't bother.

Last night I thought it would be a nice idea to fetch the exact time from some internet time server. As far as I can see, I have ntpdate enabled in rc.conf and I have produced some kind of /etc/ntp.conf but doing # ntpdate I keep receiving messages like this: 18 Nov 10:39:42 ntpdate[56133]: no servers can be used, exiting In Google I found some confusing pages about time servers being down because of security risks. So my question is: Does this work at all and if yes which lines should be put into my rc.conf and my ntp.conf? Thanx for your answers. Uli. ************************************ * P. U.

If the X driver you are using supports the "sw_cursor" option, it will probably work around this problem. Look for a section in /etc/XF86Config beginning with Section "Device" (there may be many, so some trial and error possibly required), and within that section, add: Option "sw_cursor" Details about other driver options may be found in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/. Another option would be to try installing XFree86 v4.X as a package from the CD - there is probably some documentation somewhere describing what's involved in switching from XFree 3.3.X to 4.X.

Low-level format, especially if done with tools and procedures not explicitly recommended by the manufacturer, can be a risky thing. In general, it should not be neccessary to do a low level format on modern drives (in fact, a few years back there used to be a low-level format utility present in many BIOSes, which is no longer the case) - if the need arises, it is well possible that something else and much more serious is about to fail. If you do a low-level format wrong, the "bad blocks" on your HDD that were already marked as bad in the factory or during your use of the drive will be made available for data storage again. A proper low-level format tool from your manufacturer should properly handle this and make sure that these blocks remain marked as bad. A wrong tool may, however, make these bad blocks available for data storage again.

I have something that I got somewhere with cvsup; maybe it was source, or the latest ports, or something. I don't know exactly what source is currently on the machine.

Yes, 'low-level format' was probably a poor choice of words on my part. The function I'm thinking of does essentially what Nils describes below -- scrubs the entire disk, checking each block and marking all the bad blocks as such. I'm not sure whether the IBM tool I used recently (on an IBM drive) did this properly or not -- it pronounced the drive to be healthy and all seemed to be well for a few weeks until the fatal read errors came back again. I have no idea if these were on the same blocks as before or new ones that had gone bad since. The drive has since been replaced by IBM (3 year warranty is a Good Thing!). > If you do a low-level format wrong, the "bad blocks" on your HDD that were > already marked as bad in the factory or during your use of the drive will > be made available for data storage again.

Absolutely. Only use the tools provided by the drive manufacturer. Personally, I'd just get the thing replaced as soon as it started behaving badly, rather than trusting that it had been 'fixed' and having it fail again.

Since I don't see Gary's picking up on this in either of the digests, I'll correct this here. Gary is referring to running a shell inside of Emacs - or XEmacs. In emacs, it's possible to associate a process with a buffer, such that output from the process is appended to the buffer, and the newline key causes input back to the prompt to be sent to the process. Back in the bad old days, when I had a real terminal at work and didn't have SLIP for dialin, I would change the buffer name to include the hostname, and have multiple shell buffers with rlogins to various hosts I needed to work on. This beat the alternative - rsh sessions to all those hosts with only one active at a time - hands down. > > (Unfortunately, the terminal emulation is not as > > good as xterm, so I wind up having to use xterm for running interactive > > non-GUI programs.

The terminal emulation for the shell in emacs is pretty poor, being pretty much at the teletype level. There is a real terminal emulator good enough to run vi inside of emacs. However, you lose a lot of the features of the standard shell mode. It's also truly moded, as opposed to having quasimodes, which makes for bad UI design. If I were stuck on a glass tty, I'd probably learn to use it so I could use things that needed an addressable cursor inside of emacs, but in a windowed environment, running a real terminal emulator in another window is a bit saner and provides the same functionality. > > Of course, it's also much better than xterm for keybanging of shell > > command input and output.

Since you're running inside an editor and all the output is in the editor buffer, all the output is available - thus you can search through the complete output history, as well as the input commands provided by the emacs mode of bash. Deleting the output of the last command means you go back to the last prompt, and delete everything from there to the current prompt. No problem. Actually, one of my favorite features is "ctrl-c r", which makes the last prompt the first line of the window, so *all* you see is the last command and it's output. > > (The special shell-mode commands > > all start with ctrl-c, so "ctrl-c ctrl-c" is xterm's "ctrl-c".) > i will take a wild guess as i am thoroughly confused now, but could > you be implying here "emacs-ctlx" keymap as introduced (but not > explained) in the bash(1)? Nope. As he says, shell-mode in emacs - as opposed to emacs mode in the shell - prefixes it's commands with C-c. So to send a C-c, you have to hit it twice. For me, it's four times, because I have the window ratpoison's prefix key bound to C-c, so sending one to emacs takes two C-c's, thus getting two to the shell buffer takes for.

However, the settings in the registry of the Win2K machines are okay being set at the 1492 mtu already. What is driving me bonkers is that everthing was working fine for the first 8 days on DSL connection. After an electrical storm caused the Win2K gateway's OS to become unstable, I decided to re-install everything since it had been running the Win2 OS for almost 2 years. Then the problem started. My main concern is the FreeBSD boxes which do nitely tasks with a remote using the FTP up and downloads... the down works, but not the upload. The bandaid is to switch back to the ISDN each night, but that is not an automatic solution as it was before when the DSL stayed connected.... this is my motivation for trying to set up PPP on one of the BSDs. This is really "bugging" me and have spent days looking for the solution.

You need to specify the servers for ntpdate in ntpdate_flags in rc.conf. If your system is up and connected full time, you probably want to use ntpd instead of ntpdate. See the respective man pages for more information. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Q: How do you make the gods laugh? A: Tell them your plans.

Exactly! I've used mostly Western Digital drives here and I've had very little problems with them, but at the time one drive actually did not work the way it was supposed to be, WD was very helpful with instantly accepting my complaint and sending me a replacement drive within only a few days. If it's rather obious that the drive itself is faulty, I'd always see if it's still under warranty and try to get it replaced before I try some "strange" things myself, which might make the issue even worse, and in the end probably even void the warranty (though the latter is unlikely to happen as long as you don't open the drive, which is in all cases a bad idea ;-) Greetings Nils Nils Holland Ti Systems - FreeBSD in Tiddische, Germany http://www.tisys.org * nils@tisys.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 6:11:58 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.gmx.net (mail.gmx.net [213.165.64.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A509637B417 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 06:11:53 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 19934 invoked by uid 0); 18 Nov 2001 14:11:52 -0000 Received: from tk212017108240.univie.teleweb.at (HELO Deadcell.ANT) (212.17.108.240) by mail.gmx.net (mp007-rz3) with SMTP; 18 Nov 2001 14:11:52 -0000 Received: (from ant@localhost) by Deadcell.ANT (8.11.5/8.11.5) id fAIEBik30095 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 15:11:44 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ant) Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 15:11:44 +0100 From: Andreas Ntaflos To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: wordperfect 8.0 still available?

That's most likely the source of your problem. I don't know what you're using for NAT on your W2K box, but I've done installations of W2K where LAN activities worked fine on one box and not on another, with the exact same install process. Personally, I would focus your efforts on getting PPPoE working on one of your FreeBSD machines. It's a lot easier to tell what's going on using FreeBSD (thanks to copious amounts of logging) than Win2K. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 7:56:31 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sage-american.com (sage-american.com [216.122.141.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5DEFA37B417 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 07:56:29 -0800 (PST) Received: from SAGEONE (adsl-208-191-227-85.dsl.crchtx.swbell.net [208.191.227.85]) by sage-american.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id JAA22027; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 09:56:25 -0600 (CST) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.20011118095632.00f91eb8@mail.sage-american.com> X-Sender: jacks@mail.sage-american.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 09:56:32 -0600 To: "Matthew Emmerton" , From: jacks@sage-american.com Subject: Re: More PPPoE DSL In-Reply-To: <053201c17048$8fd2aef0$1200a8c0@gsicomp.on.ca> References: <3.0.5.32.20011117220014.00f8efc0@mail.sage-american.com> <3.0.5.32.20011118074636.00f91eb8@mail.sage-american.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG ...yes, exactly why when time permits, I will go back to configuring the PPPoE for the FreeBSD for all the reasons you mention, plus other benefits.

If you like using Intel's syntax (the one used by MASM and TASM in DOS/Windows) then you might like `nasm' which is available both for Windows and FreeBSD. It can save its output in .OBJ and ELF .o files, so you will probably find it useful. If you tend to write mostly C, with a few asm lines that you want to link to your code, GCC's inline assembly or GNU as(1) [both available on a stock FreeBSD installation] will probably suit you fine :) -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 8: 4:50 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.panix.com (mail2.panix.com [166.84.0.213]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3C02137B417 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 08:04:48 -0800 (PST) Received: from panix1.panix.com (panix1.panix.com [166.84.1.1]) by mail2.panix.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 58E468F09 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 11:04:47 -0500 (EST) Received: (from stanb@localhost) by panix1.panix.com (8.11.3nb1/8.8.8/PanixN1.0) id fAIG4l203484 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 11:04:47 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <200111181604.fAIG4l203484@panix1.panix.com> Subject: gramofile To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org (Free BSD Questions list) Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 11:04:47 -0500 (EST) From: "Stan Brown" X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.5 PL6] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I need to digitize a bunch of analog music.

The utilities I'm trying to get to work are: consolehm-1.31_1 Console based hardware monitor for FreeBSD /usr/ports/sysutils/consolehm wmhm-1.45_1 WindowMaker dockable hardware monitor for FreeBSD /usr/ports/sysutils/wmhm wmlmmon-0.60 WM dock app to display info from MB power management contro /usr/ports/sysutils/wmlmmon The problems I get are: root@voyager:~> chm Failed to open /dev/smb0. root@voyager:~> wmhm Failed to open /dev/smb0. Possible reasons: - Your kernel does not support SMBUS. - You are not running wmhm suid root. - WMHM is already running. root@voyager:~> wmlmmon Failed to open device /dev/smb0. If your system does not support intpm(4), try to use /dev/io (-i flag) or check the permissions of /dev/smb0. According to man files I need the following in my kernel: controller smbus0 controller iicbus0 controller iicbb0 controller intpm0 device smb0 at smbus? Since I use FreeBSD 4.4, the above no longer exists in the kernel config, so, I've got these instead (some of them are probably not needed, but I added more and more to see if they where needed but with all these enabled, it still wouldn't work.) # SMB bus device smbus device intpm device alpm device ichsmb device smb # I2C Bus device iicbus device iicbb device ic device iic device iicsmb options HW_WDOG My motherboard is a Epox EP-7KXA and its got a VIA Apollo KX133 chipset. (Perhaps the Via chipsets are not supported at this time?) I've also tried to remove and recreate /dev/smb0 but nothing helps, still the same error. Any suggestions? Does anyone successfully monitor a VIA based board? cheers, Andy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 8:21: 3 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sage-american.com (sage-american.com [216.122.141.44]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7096037B416 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 08:20:58 -0800 (PST) Received: from SAGEONE (adsl-208-191-227-85.dsl.crchtx.swbell.net [208.191.227.85]) by sage-american.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id KAA25409; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 10:20:53 -0600 (CST) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.20011118102059.00f91eb8@mail.sage-american.com> X-Sender: jacks@mail.sage-american.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 10:20:59 -0600 To: "Matthew Emmerton" , From: jacks@sage-american.com Subject: Re: More PPPoE DSL In-Reply-To: <055601c1704a$3f48f000$1200a8c0@gsicomp.on.ca> References: <3.0.5.32.20011117220014.00f8efc0@mail.sage-american.com> <3.0.5.32.20011118074636.00f91eb8@mail.sage-american.com> <3.0.5.32.20011118095632.00f91eb8@mail.sage-american.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The ICS LAN setup that came with Win2K: "Network and Dial-up Connections\LAN" with the gateway set to 192.168.0.1 I've tried assigning fixed IPs to each Win2K machine as well as "obtain IP automatically" for the networked machines. With the ISDN setup, everthing works 100% either way. With the DSL, I have the two nagging problems.... All machines can ping each other just fine. With the BSDs, the /etc/hosts define the addresses as static for each machine on the LAN. The BSDs' find the gateway machine fine and is identified as 192.168.0.1 and /etc/resolv.conf sees it as the nameserver too.

I am running two USR sportster 56k modems. basically what happens is my provider kicks me offline every 12hrs. i'm running userppp from the rc.conf (ie "/usr/sbin/ppp -quiet -ddial -nat etcetc"). i also have pppctl setup. when my provider kicks me off, my machine goes to reconnect. generally every other time or everytime depending, my modems will keep dialing connecting negotiating and then hanging up, and keep repeating this over again and again, at least until I intervene. when I run pppctl, then prompt will say "PPP>" indicating that i have a full working connection, even though the off hook and CD lights on both modem are off. it says that way even when dialing. the only way it will stop is when i type "close", leave the modems recycle, and then type "open", and then all is well.. the logs dont really say anything except "carrier lost" or something to that effect. I am not sure if this is a configuration problem, or a bug in the multilink code.. here is my ppp.conf. i can post a set of logs if needed. default: # ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) # Ensure that "device" references the correct serial port # for your modem.

Basically, the log on chimera, my freebsd box, has this: chimera natd[226]: failed to write packet back (Permission denied) followed by last message repeated x times for x = 100 to 200. Whenever I am on the console, the "last message repeated" message is very prevalent. I can not see any rhyme or reason to it. The BSD box (chimera) is between a DSL modem and a win2k server and a win2k / freebsd laptop. Chimera has two nic's, one public, one private, private one goes directly to a switch, from the switch to the windows boxes. The setups pretty standard, samba and apache run on chimera. **everything is working a-ok, except for the natd message** If its not broke, break it, then fix it is my motto I guess.

After a long strugle with my Netserver LC5 i finally got FreeBSD 4,4 installed on the computer - but after the first reboot then my problems started. The boot menu comes up fine where i can press f1 to start freebsd, the only problem is that the pc speaker just goes *biip* if i press f1 likewies i dos'nt bot automaticly after a few secs like it should. Its a LC5 with onboard aic 7770 scsi controller (the type that needs the 'eisa 12' to work) if that has anything to say? Any hints?

What is slightly odd is that as far as I know nobody has considered that the shell(s) could optionally revert to normal path seaching if a hashed filepath is not found. -- Regards Cliff On Sat, Nov 17, 2001 at 11:29:25AM +0100, Anthony Atkielski wrote: > Thanks.

But that dos'nt appear anymore?! (the 'booting kernel in yadad' that is) how do i get that back so i can set the 'eisa 12' parameter? Its a totally fresh intallation...

During the install process, I always manage to get through happily to the bit where I can configure my HDD - at this point the install program says that it can't find any HDD and bails. I have been able to install and run OpenBSD 2.9 - no problems. No tweaking is needed (dmesg is attached below). What do I need to do get my favourite OS on here? My suspicions lie with the wdc/wd names for the HDD controller and drive - are these devices still supported in the install for FreeBSD? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Happy to supply more info as requested. Thanks.

In fact I've rebuilt the kernel to support firewalling but I think that by following your description that if i had to change either of the cards I could do it. I was just a bit concerned from what you were saying that with a non- GENERIC kernel the range of card support is reduced ? Is it in fact reduced to those cards that were in place at the time the kernel was rebuilt ? If so I might be stuffed if the new nic required a new driver ? ITRW the two nics are pretty generic (one's a D-LINK DFE 550TX and the other is something similarly mainstream) and when I buy my 'standby' nic I will make efforts to buy the same so that the issue of different drivers doesn't arise. However if you or anyone else has any thoughts on what the impact of having a non-GENERIC kernel is when you need to change nics I would be interested to hear. > The configuration of the > card is only done automatically in the install if you are using DHCP, I'm not using DHCP but as I say I'm quite happy with the manual instructions you have provided, thanks. > > Hope this helps. > It did, thanks. richard shea. ***************************************************** Open Door Ltd PO Box 119-46 Wellington, NZ PH +64 4 384 7639 FX +64 4 384 7672 ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 13:42:40 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from email02.aon.at (WARSL401PIP7.highway.telekom.at [195.3.96.115]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D789937B405 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 13:42:37 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 351550 invoked from network); 18 Nov 2001 21:42:31 -0000 Received: from l0819p22.dipool.highway.telekom.at (HELO omega-home.ath.cx) ([62.46.166.86]) (envelope-sender ) by qmail2.highway.telekom.at (qmail-ldap-1.03) with SMTP for ; 18 Nov 2001 21:42:31 -0000 Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 23:42:31 +0100 From: Sperber To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: XFree86 + Logtech Cordless TrackMan FX Message-Id: <20011118234231.4a6708c2.sperber@w3.brgkepler.asn-graz.ac.at> X-Mailer: Sylpheed version 0.6.4 (GTK+ 1.2.10; i386--freebsd4.4) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I have a small problem: I have the the trackman fx which has no own wheel, but in windows (blah...) there is a driver function which makes the 4th button work like a "meta key". if i press it and move the ball, the ball works like the wheel does.

This isn't a patch, it's an update to -CURRENT. The FreeBSD project almost never uses "patches". You shouldn't install updates which haven't been tested with your system. How do you know they will even compile? If you want to use this fix, you must install -CURRENT. In this case, that's probably not appropriate, which is why I suggested contacting sos. >>> Your best bet, I believe, is going to be to talk with sos and see >>> about getting the patch either MFC'd to the STABLE branch, or to >>> get a copy of the patch yourself and apply it. >> >> Who is sos?

Well, as the commit log stated, the update works around a design bug in the IDE controller. Greg -- When replying to this message, please take care not to mutilate the original text.

Xdm worked fine. but I want gdm. Thanks. I installed GDM 2.2.3.2 from ports recently, and I've not been able to get much happening either. However, there seems to be two problems manifesting themselves here. Firstly, in my /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/Init/Default file (the script that gdm will execute once the X server has started), gdmlogin seemed to be commented out or nonexistant.[1] I added gdmlogin to Init/Default, and that managed to pop up something vaugely intelligent. gdmlogin was complaining that I was running different versions of the daemon (gdm) and the gdmlogin program. Odd, seeing as I installed straight from ports. That seems to be a step in the right direction. I'll follow this up on Monday[2] when I've got Ethernet-speed Internet connection to work with. I'll post any results along with the instructions to get the beast working (if it'll work at all). - andrew [1] I can't remember exactly -- I was playing with it at 3:00AM last night.

Your syslogd dumped core because of a bug. If your world and kernel are in sync, you should probably compile a syslogd with debugging information, and let it dump core. Then run gdb(1) and see a backtrace for hints about the bug that bit you. If all this sounds like Greek to you, and you don't know what I'm talking about, you should probably run -STABLE instead of -CURRENT, since -CURRENT is by definition unstable and bugs like this might appear from time to time :) -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 16:24:21 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hotmail.com (oe28.pav2.hotmail.com [64.4.36.85]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 14A9E37B405 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 16:24:18 -0800 (PST) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 16:24:17 -0800 X-Originating-IP: [216.254.113.126] From: "Mike Semcheski" To: Cc: References: <20011118150047.E69555@blossom.cjclark.org> Subject: Re: natd failed to write packet back Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 19:22:34 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2600.0000 Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 19 Nov 2001 00:24:17.0996 (UTC) FILETIME=[86A9C8C0:01C17090] Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My question is this: What is causing this message to occur so often?

Change syslog.conf(5) accordingly or rearrange your firewall rules so that the offending packets are dropped _before_ they go through natd(8). Use the -v option of natd(8) and the 'log' ipfw(8) rule entry to figure out what kind of traffic is making the problems. There have also been some flame wa^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hdebates about making changes to natd(8) to change this logging behavior. -- Crist J.

Hi Bjarne, To build the Gaim port without Gnome, use the "WITHOUT_GNOME" flag: # cd /usr/ports/net/gaim # make WITHOUT_GNOME=1 install This will prevent Gnome support from being enabled at compile-time. You can also use "WITHOUT_ESOUND" if you don't want it to try to use esound. - Michael Imamura mimamura@resnet.gatech.edu LUG@GT Web Guy http://www.lugatgt.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 18 18: 7:19 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from atkielski.com (atkielski.com [161.58.232.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 98FEC37B405; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 18:07:16 -0800 (PST) Received: from contactdish (ASt-Lambert-101-2-1-14.abo.wanadoo.fr [193.251.59.14]) by atkielski.com (8.11.6) id fAJ27DF98914; Mon, 19 Nov 2001 03:07:13 +0100 (CET) Message-ID: <003a01c1709e$e8318e30$0a00000a@atkielski.com> From: "Anthony Atkielski" To: "Andrew C.

It's not logical to test components that are extremely unlikely to be malfunctioning. At one time, when PCs were a laboratory curiosity and only worked correctly on occasion, testing the hardware might have made more sense (although, overall, PC hardware has always been remarkably reliable). Today, however, there is no reason at all to test hardware unless clear evidence of hardware failure becomes apparent. Software, on the other hand, has never been reliable, and has not become any more reliable over time. It therefore makes sense to be extremely wary of software, and to test software configurations frequently. > Hmm... guess I've not been following "logical" > practices for years now, and don't think I'm going > to stop.

I currently have no reason to believe or disbelieve that the IDE controller or any bug associated with it caused the mysterious reboot. Unfortunately, the mysterious reboot left virtually no evidence of its passing, beyond the top screen shot that I was fortuitously able to salvage (because I had top running during the night on one login at the time of the boot).

Heh--this got me curious enough to do a very lax test--a machine where I have several O/S's installed---KII6 450 with 192 megs of Ram. Booting from RH's Grub, so I began counting after the O/S began to boot--that is, if I choose FreeBSD, first it does this chainloader thing. Lots of factors that I ignored, but, with all but Win2k booting into text mode....

If ntpd is running, ntpdate cannot be used. The ntp.conf file and the driftfile refer to ntpd. ntpd can be started on boot with the xntpd_enable="YES" line; the program it runs in now named ntpd rather than xntpd.

The XEmacs editor has a "shell mode" for editing buffers which makes the editing buffer do terminal emulation. Its rather like your editing a terminal log except that when you press "Enter" on the command line, it sends the command to the shell, etc. Very much better than standard terminal emulators (except that the standard version, the most functional one, doesn't do interactive commands well). I think it uses the "$SHELL" shell, by default.

Im pulling 2 date/time variables from a database, and what im trying to do is work out a comparison between the both dates..... for example $date1 = "2001-10-01 01:00:00"; $date2 = "2001-10-01 03:00:00"; What I want is to somehow calculate that there is 2 hours between these 2 dates (or 120 minutes, or 7200 seconds etc etc) I know I can do a time() and it will return the number of seconds from epoch, but it only works on live time, and I cant feed it a date and let it calculate it on that. Any help on this would be appreciated.

The device configures and works both on Windows (yuck) and a previous installation of FreeBSD 4.0 that I want to wipe out. My problem is that during the device configuration step I can't find the ep driver. 4.0 finds the card as ep0: <3Com Etherlink III 3C589> at port 0x240-24f irq 10 slot 0 on pccard0 Windows maps it as 0110-011F, IRQ 11 3Com's 3LINK-ID program says 3C589C IRQ 10 I/O Base 300 "optimized for OS/2 client" "max modem speed 9600" (huh?) ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.4-RELEASE/HARDWARE.TXT says that the 3C589 is supported by the ep driver. But when I boot up the installation floppies, and enter UserConfig, the only "Active" network devices are cs0, ed0, fe0, ie0, lnc0, and sn0. If I tab over to the Inactive side, there are no network devices listed. If I try again in CLI mode instead of visual mode, typing "enable ep0" yields "No such device: ep0", which agrees with the output of "ls". http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/4-STABLE/hardware/i386/x1755.html says "A compressed version of the GENERIC kernel is also used on the installation floppy diskette and DOS boot image". Is it possible that this "compression" includes removing the ep driver? I browsed around freebsd.org for a while but was unable to find which config file matches the 4.4 install floppies (I saw "BOOTMFS" blink by, but it's not clear how to see a copy before installing FreeBSD and setting up cvsup--I would have expected to find it in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/conf/).

(sigh) Ok, got another one for you guys. I should probubly know this one, but I'm having a running brain fart today. Too much to do, too little time and too little staff. How do you setup a redirector using a BSD box so that if someone goes to your site and the site is, to use this figuratively, "services.mycompany.com" and the port is 80, it forwards the request off to the web server, 21 goes to the file server, 25 the smtp server, 110 the pop3 server, etc. The idea is since we're shrinking all of the available internal company "services" based servers in the noc to as few as possible to make room for what I consider to be non-sence machines, I'm looking at cutting the need for multiple redirectors to just one machine which then bounces the requests to the different servers based on port and service requested. Does anyone know the easiest way to do this? Thanks.

I sat and read through my files and setup this weekend, and kept coming back to why FBSD ftp works when Windows/NextStep doesn't - they both have to traverse the same firewall, with the same rules, so it should either work or not work for all of them (assuming the ftp client is behaving in the same way). So I concluded that FBSD ftp was working differently than Windows and NextStep ftp. Went in again in the "advanced" setup of Explorer 5.5 and 6.0, lo and behold there was a "passive ftp" check box that I had checked previously, now was unchecked! Checked it off, restarted expolorer, and ftp works. Went into my NextStep ftp clients hoping to find a similar configuration variable, no luck. It seems they don't have passive options (might not have existed then, the software is from 1993-1996). The NextStep browser (OmniWeb) did have Passive ftp as an automatic settable default, so that worked as well (why it didn't work before is beyond me, I'm just glad it works now...). Thanks again for all the help, it made troubleshooting easier having a discussion forum to bounce ideas off of. My next question has to do with setup of mpd-netgraph (pptp), I'll send more in a separate posting.

Keep in mind though that it will only filter IP packets. All others will be passed unless you hack around that in the kernel. The man pages are wrong on this point. -- greetz Joost joost@jodocus.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 19 1:13:12 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from soda.csua.berkeley.edu (soda.CSUA.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.247.226]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2164C37B41A for ; Mon, 19 Nov 2001 01:13:06 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (mjm@localhost) by soda.csua.berkeley.edu (8.11.6/8.11.4) with ESMTP id fAJ9D5t03674; Mon, 19 Nov 2001 01:13:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from joup@bigfoot.com) X-Authentication-Warning: soda.csua.berkeley.edu: mjm owned process doing -bs Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2001 01:13:05 -0800 (PST) From: Mark Miller X-X-Sender: mjm@soda.csua.berkeley.edu To: Eric Anholt Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: getting the most out of OpenGL In-Reply-To: <200111141944.fAEJiB426655@gladstone.uoregon.edu> Message-ID: <20011119010308.C2017-100000@soda.csua.berkeley.edu> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thanks for the response. I've been doing a little more research and apparently there is a driver (NVdriver), available for linux and XF86 4.x, that provides excellent 3d performance. The downside is that it appears to require a module in the kernel, which, I presume, makes it very linux-specific. But I'm wondering-- will FreeBSD's Linux API handle this sort of thing, even for kernel modules? The other issue-- how hard is it to have two XF86 installs (3.3.6 and 4.1) side by side?
