I'm working on this - the port I submitted for 1.4.4 does NOT do pkg_add correctly due to some weird chars in the PLIST. I'm trying to fix this using 1.4.5.* but sorting through the patches and what they do is a pain. It appears the patches are submitted by just about anyone off the street and some of them do NOTHING right. I have 1.4.5.* sort of ready - I'm hoping to finish it sometime tonight maybe and send it in. > Please let me know any info that might be of help.

That's because it's a repository copy waiting for my updated version. :-) If you'd like the patch to fix your port to the 1.4.4 version let me know and I can send it to you.

Yeah this can be difficult, especially for big ports with LOTS of files installed. Here's what I do - YMMV: - make up the port, wo/ a PLIST - touch the Makefile to make sure it is up to date - make install (pkg_registration won't be done but ....) - "find /usr/X11R6/ -newer Makefile -print > PLIST" obviously change /usr/X11R6/ to /usr/local/ if you're not doing an X based port - edit the PLIST to remove all the /usr/local/ or /usr/X11R6/ stuff, remove the directory listings (/usr/local/lib/glut) etc, add in any ldconfig's, and at the bottom add in @dirrm's to remove any newly created directories - move PLIST to pkg - make reinstall - continue testing > FWIW: 'make makesum' was a breeze.

Until users are ready to be able to - Handle, when ports will not compile without a hitch - Can make the world , when it fails So, although "Free"BSD, its UNIX. Hence its always not for "normal" users. Imagine ppl using FreeBSD (Got hold of the CD from a book ) and not having the facility to not being in "this" mailing list or internet. Just imagine the sufferings of those users. And don't know how many of them don't even know the existence of this list. Don't believe me ? ok . Try installing any released version. Then try making the world. Then try upgrading to any release after cvsupping. Experience it. I do it every time I have customer for server machine. ( I have a 2.2.1 CD-ROM from there to stable). But I will always thank those developers, who put it together made this UNIX available to us.So what is lacking ? User guide. Jahan "DU be free or die."

It looks like you want IMAP instead. Pine can handle this. Ask the remote sysadmin if IMAP is supported on the machine.

Not to say that you can't put them on their own controllers, but you'll need to build a new kernel first instructing it where wd1 will end up. I'll post my boilerplate below for reference. > I assume that if I give Windows more room, and move the FreeBSD boot > sector, that I will have to somehow inform the dual-boot controller of the > new address for the FreeBSD boot sector. No, Booteasy rereads the partition tables on every boot and therefore requires no configuration. If you get the message: panic: Cannot mount root At the end of the probe sequence you should either: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other parameters unchanged).

For 1.5 weeks I have been trying to get ppp to answer in server mode and it seems nothing I do is working. Im running 2.2.6 This is as far as I can get; I have configured ttys for /dev/ttyd1 libexec/getty I now have the system answering as an incomming modem in terminal mode. I have tried everythng it says to do..word for word in the manual..along with 5 other people..all working on one machine. Not one of us have less then 3 years Linux experience. We have tried compiling mgetty in PPP-Auto mode....tried configuring the scripts that run in /etc/ppp, and the end product is......the system does not answer...at all...period.. It looks like an mgetty problem..... We have created new shells in /etc/paaswd..and still nothing Well....all in all what Im looking for now is someone to help provide us with the EXCACT files we need to make this all come together. Here is what our plan is. We have a LAN. We want to be able to dial into this lan using a normal windows95 dialup networking call... After we have the lan working...we will then hook into our T3 connection and start providing dialup service using freebsd though our multi-port system. Now....I myself dont really understand the diff between CHAP or PAP or if we even need CHAP or PAP...but what ever it takes to enable a win 95 box to dial into the network is what Im looking for. We have tried all the pap and chap stuff and nothing works. BTW..what is CHAP or PAP..I cant find any definitions on it...It seems everyone but me knows what it is or how to work it. Sorry for carrying on like..this Now if you could.... I would ask your kind help in supplying to me the names of the files I will require to do the job please. name /path #1 ___________________ name/path #2____________________ Etc; Or better yet...helping to configure them..or copying them from you machine...actual working files would be great..and mailing them to me as attactments... Also tell me what files I WILL NOT need so I can get them off my system .... I have had very little luck successfully compiling mgetty..so perhaps you could assist me with a compiled binary..It sure would be appreciated. I get an error 1 about 5 minits into the compilation. I own an ISP in Vancouver Canada..and becuse of many years of frustration with LINUX...we are now switching to freebsd. Please try to keep this as simple as you can....Im about to become a good customer and good advertising for freebsd.... Thanks in advance..I sure hope you can help..

You can check the boot messages just after the configuration screen. If they go by too fast wait for the main menu to pop up then hit scroll lock, then use the arrow keys to scroll back. You should see the bt1 probe up, then the disks listed after it.

You might check that FreeBSD actually installed -- you should be able to boot the boot floppy and type `wd(1,a)/kernel' at the Boot: prompt and have the system start.

Make your script a cgi-bin. You will want to use a lockfile so you don't have five or six of these trying to take pictures at once, which could have some .. interesting .. results. Also watch for DoS attacks by repeatedly hitting the button -- grabbing from qcams taxes the system pretty hard (at last check and using the kernel qcam driver).

Did you set up mgetty with the proper setup, then add it to /dev/ttys, then run `kill -1 1' to start it? Mgetty isn't expecting the modem to answer itself (ie auto-answer mode), is it?

Do any of the current Linux distributions even have a make world equivelent? I've never seen any Linux user upgrade "world" by any method other than downloading a new distribution. And trust me, I've had more than my share of RPMs that wouldn't install cleanly, and I'm not even talking source RPMs. FreeBSD does have packages for those that can't handle compiling their own stuff. > Don't believe me ? ok .

User guide. I don't know, I think the FAQ and Online User Guide cover most of the stuff, except the most recent changes. Not knocking Linux, I used it myself for years, but I'm much happier and productive with FreeBSD.

Its pretty easy to use up that 175MB HD. 5M of memory is the minimum for an install. 8M runs fairly nicely as long as you don't run X. Am not sure you could install FreeBSD and X in only 175M. Sounds like from your sig that you might have plenty of bandwidth. So download the FreeBSD 2.2.6 installation floppy. Connect your 386 to your network. Boot with the installation floppy. Answer the questions. And it will install over the net. Even if it has to dial out the modem to your ISP. (or so I'm told). I've never installed quite that way as I only have a 28.8k modem. I either keep a local mirror of the latest -stable, or export the CDROM via NFS. Still boot the installation floppy but I answer some of the questions differently so installation points to my source. The best thing to do is support Walnut Creek and pay $39.95 + $5 S&H for the CD's. If the 386 doesn't have a CDROM then you should be able to put the CD in the other machine and start an ftpd. Create the boot floppy to boot the 386. When you answer the questions, tell it to install via ftp from your other machine. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

It just seems like a good idea to me. I have an old Caviar 400MB IDE drive explicitely set aside for the swap partition. It still screams along fairly well and if I put it on the second IDE controller then traffic going to and from swap won't get bound up with traffic going to and from the main drive. Am I thinking correctly? And is 400 MB of swap space just TOO obscene for a 64MB RAM system? Pitfalls? I chose 400 MB simply because that's the size of my extra drive...I don't OWN a smaller drive. If no one knows, I will be glad to run some comparisons...it's going to be "just" a workstation, though...not much network throughput at all. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Short Colossians 3:23 ashort@concentric.net http://www.concentric.net/~ashort/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 10 17:08:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA01787 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 10 May 1998 17:08:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [139.130.136.133]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA01750 for ; Sun, 10 May 1998 17:08:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id JAA07621; Mon, 11 May 1998 09:37:53 +0930 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Message-ID: <19980511093753.D7546@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Mon, 11 May 1998 09:37:53 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: andrew@ugh.net.au, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Stallion Card...can't open devices References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: ; from andrew@ugh.net.au on Sun, May 10, 1998 at 11:05:38PM +1000 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 10 May 1998 at 23:05:38 +1000, andrew@ugh.net.au wrote: > Hi, > > I am trying to get a stallion multiport serial card to work under 2.2.5. > > At boot it is detected: > > stli0 at 0x2a0 maddr 0xcc000 msize 4096 flags 0x17 on isa > stli0: EC8/64-AT (driver version 2.0.0), unit=0 nrpanels=1 nrports=16 > > and stlload goes without a hitch. > > all the devices seem to be correct.. > > crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 75, 0x01000000 May 10 22:22 /dev/staliomem0 > crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 75, 32 May 10 22:22 /dev/ttyiE0 > crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 75, 160 May 10 22:22 /dev/cuie0 > > but when I try to connect to a port... > > cu --speed 9600 --line /dev/cuie0 > > cu: open (/dev/cuie0): Permission denied > cu: /dev/cuie0: Line in use > > I am doing this as root. > > Anyone have any ideas?

I suppose the obvious question is: do you need the extra performance? How much swapping do you do? How much swap are you using? How much file activity do you have? Depending on the load, you might find it better to use the Caviar for a file system.

The one thing that I KNOW is that I don't need the extra performance...I am sure that the box will perform admirably as my workstation without the extra drive. My thing is, that I HAVE the extra drive, and I want to use it in the system where it will do me the most good. Putting the swap on it was the most obvious solution to me. For the most part, it will be used to get ME familiar with FreeBSD, Unix in general, and alot of the free software that goes along with it.

Locking simply means to create a small flag file, like .cqcaminuse, that keeps other instances of your CGI script from trying to use the camera while another script is taking a picture. This assumes that the capture application doesn't do it's own locking. When you're done taking a picture you remove the file. Using flock() would probably be overkill. > should i use perl or a shell script?

If you like fiddling with hardware then you should be doing device drivers. :-) You don't have total control of the CPU with UNIX, so you can't code direct assembly since you could leave the CPU in an inconsistent state if, say, a disk access completes and interrupts your process. There is gas, which is assembly like you've never seen it.

I've often seen/heard this claim, but frankly I don't buy it: 1) How many shell scripts exist on your system which don't begin with the magic #! on the first line? 2) Even without the magic, the default interpreter is sh; even if you are running csh as your login shell, executing a script from the command line will fire it off with /bin/sh if there is no magic number at the head. } 2) Shared-lib issues -- pick the wrong shell and you won't be able to } login as root if, say, /usr or /lib dies and takes libc with it. } /bin/sh is statically linked. This is a more persuasive argument. Let me quickly interject that I never change root's shell; I'm a firm believer in the "do as little as root as you can" maxim, and for as often as I need to be root to do anything "major", I don't find it too difficult to type a few characters to start up the shell of my choice. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun May 10 20:47:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA29944 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 10 May 1998 20:47:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mutsgo.kf7nn.com (mutsgo.kf7nn.com [204.251.27.213]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA29935 for ; Sun, 10 May 1998 20:47:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kf7nn@mutsgo.kf7nn.com) Received: (from kf7nn@localhost) by mutsgo.kf7nn.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id WAA01661; Sun, 10 May 1998 22:47:04 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from kf7nn) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.1 [p0] on FreeBSD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Sun, 10 May 1998 22:46:32 -0500 (CDT) From: kf7nn@kf7nn.com To: Doug White Subject: Re: cqcam script Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG so what method do you suggest to lock the file?

In your case you want to keep comm on the netbios ports down -- check /etc/services. This will continue to allow the traffic, just not let it cause a dialout. > filter what will in or out via ppp (do I have to make this kind of rule > refere to tun0 or sio0 ?) If you truly want to block it then you will have to block it on tun0. You will want to set up the dfilter too so you don't have dialouts on blocked data. I haven't tried this, though -- ipfw may get a hold of the data before ppp does. > allow acess to secure shell and not telnet If this is a single machine, it's easier to just turn telnetd off in /etc/inetd.conf.

OK, looking at your example there is a problem: > #ttyd1 /usr/local/sbin/mgetty -s 19200 dialup on <============NOTE Apart from it being commented out :), you need to "quote" the command line. I bet that init is trying to run it incorrectly, ie omitting the speed parameter. It should look like: ttyd1 "/usr/local/sbin/mgetty -s 19200" dialup on If something is going wrong here then you will get system log messages to the effect of ``getty on ttydX is cycling to quickly -- sleeping 30 secs''.

You probably want to teach them how to use FTP then . ;) Or try NFS over TCP. Generally Internet lag is too much for sharing filesystems with any semblance of performance.
