The password has requirements such letters (upper & lower case), numbers, and a few special characters. Everything is case sensitive. Don't get overly creative when you are starting out because you may not be able to follow up on it. You can always boot to single user mode and fix a root password. If you have a bad user password, redo it from root.

You will not see a lot of information about specific ports, that is non-FreeBSD codes, in the FreeBSD handbook and FAQ. That said, X apps often like to hide stuff in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, but no guarantees that's where this one puts it. (I use fvwm2, and it actually _moved_ its modules in a minor version number change.) I notice their website hides the docs a bit but, http://www.xfce.org/help/help.html Looks like it might have what you want. A lot of the docs are Windows-style help ("To exit the application, push the 'Exit' button"). You can also look to see where other stuff that might be modules might have been installed. -- Crist J.

The Handbook suggests me to recompile the kernel if I wish to add or subtract support for different devices. I would like to do both, but how? Sure, I know how to copy GENERIC and modify it, but _how_ can I find out what lines are needed and what to add to have support for my hardware? To strip the kernel I tried to read the boot-log and only keep devices that had been mentioned there. That didn't work:) Any good hints? The networks card I wish to add (3c574tx) is listed as "supported" yet not available in the generic kernel. What should be the way (not only in this case but more general) to find out what /dev/xx it is using, and how to set it up? My struggles to add support for this networks card included a few recompilings of the kernel. I found /etc/defaults/pccards which says it is an 'ep' device. But that one is already in the generic kernel, and 'MAKEDEV' only gives me an error. The solution though ended up as a simple 'pccard_enable="YES"'-line in /etc/rc.conf. Should I have known? Now it works nicely with kernel.GENERIC but one thing.. It takes time for the card to be identified. Often the log-in prompt is up before the card is recogniced. This gives me that I have to issue the "ifconfig" and "route" commands manually to set things up. What can I do to make sure all happens in the right order (or at the right speed)?

(From what I can see.) The question is this: What happened to the pnp support in user config in 4.0? The man page pnp(4) is still there, although inaccurate, and from what I've looked though in the past two days, support for pnp configuration at boot seems to have disappeared. What's going on? I have hesitated to bring myself up past 4.0-STABLE (don't feel like messing around much and need stability on this machine), but I am seriously considering it if I need to, to add PnP support. If I went to -current, would PnP be restored? When I added the entry 'controller pnp0' as suggested by the pnp(4) manpage to my kernel config (which seemed strange to me because it was called controller), config said that 'controller' was depreciated and to use device. When I added the entry 'device pnp0', config told me it couldn't find the device pnp. So where has it gone? As far as I can see this is a large inconvenience for a number of people, so can someone please advice what can be done to configure PnP devices from /boot/kernel.conf or by other means at boot? Is there a substitute or other command that can be used in it's place? Was it depreciated? If so, by what? Why was this removed? Etc... etc... Usually this wouldn't be a concern, because I would just let it set itself, and forget it. (Plug'n Pray) However, I am running low on IRQs and need to move some things around; I want to give IRQs to devices that are coming up with 'can't assign resources'... Otherwise I can't get all the devices working due to stupidity in hardware. Some are on-board devices on the ISA side. I was considering to just go out and buy better hardware, but I don't want to give up since, IMHO, I think in most cases the software should be made to run on hardware, not the converse. (Plus, I wanted to get this specific hardware running.) It is a tight fit getting all the peripherals working, but it will fit if I can get the PnP side working.

I have added gdomap 538/tcp and gdomap 538/udp to /etc/services with no luck. I remember I had same problem with earlier version of GNUstep on RedHat AND Stampede Linux. I have installed GNUstep from ports.

In the case of simple ones like portmap_enable, they just enable loading of a daemon. Hence, to disable portmap without rebooting, just do a 'ps -ax' and find the PID of portmap, and then use kill to terminate it.

However, generally speaking, you can use kill -HUP to restart/reinitialize a daemon. To use portmap as an example, try using the command 'ps waux | grep portmap'. You should get back a line that looks like: daemon 420 0.0 0.2 832 412 ?? Is 12:28AM 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/portmap, which gives the pid of 420. You can kill the portmapper with kill -9 420. To restart portmap, issue the command /usr/sbin/portmap. If you want to restart/reinit, do kill -HUP 420. This allows you to work with portmapper while the server remains up. Of course, if someone is using a service that depends on the mapper, then you may crash them if you restart the service. NFS comes to mind.

The array (4 30G drives setup as raid10) gets created without any problem and the FBSD install cd boots up fine. I go through the install process and files get copied to the array. Then after all the files are copied I get the following error: twe0: unexpected status bit(s) 200000 (MCERR) The kernel panics and the system reboots. I went back and reconfigured the array using two of the 30G drives as raid 1 mirror. Went through the install process again and the same thing, same error happened again. I'm using a Tyan Tiger 133 motherboard with one processor, Intel 450MHz PIII and 256 meg ram. Anyone else had to deal with this before?

Is that a typo? Do you really mean "adNi"? (i.e. - ad0a, ad1c, etc?). If so, that was the original BSD naming scheme, and is probably still used on systems with disks that don't have slices. In particular, it was used for dangerously dedicated disks on FreeBSD at one point. Those disks don't have more than one slice. These days, the name adNx and adNs1x are identical (i.e. - I get the same file systems for them on either a DD or a sliced disk on -current). However, I continue using the adNx names for dangerously dedicated disks. Not only does it make logical sense, it is then obvious that they *are* DD, so you don't try tweaking the slice table. ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 10:33:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: (qmail 1236 invoked from network); 10 Sep 2000 17:33:49 -0000 Received: from dialup-209.246.101.108.newyork2.level3.net (HELO coresync.net) (209.246.101.108) by mail8.wlv.netzero.net with SMTP; 10 Sep 2000 17:33:49 -0000 Message-ID: <39BBC607.540EEA3D@coresync.net> Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 13:33:59 -0400 From: "Jonathan M.

For instance, if I had dhcp setup for the old card will it automatically work when I put the new card in? I have of course installed a new kernel with the right drivers. Thanks.

Some people do not like reading mail in anything else that plain good ol' ASCII (author of this reply, included). I do not know of any program that can `ghost' FreeBSD disks, in the same manner that Ghost does for Windows machines, if that is what you're looking for. However, FreeBSD comes with all the tools that you need to mirror one machine to some other. [-- copying disks the freebsd way --] What I usually do, when I have to transfer an installation of BSD to another disk / partition is: 1. Create the slices / labels on the second disk. 2. Mount them under /mnt. 3. Use cpio(1) to copy the files from / to /mnt. 4. Use boot0cfg on the new disk to set up the boot loader on it. 5. Reboot into the new installation. Care should be taken in commands like: # cd /mnt # ( cd / ; find . | cpio --create ) | cpio --extract because find(1) might descend /mnt too, and recursively copy all the files in there many times. Another directory structure that need not be copied is /proc, so the command I use to copy an installation to /mnt is usually: [ mount the new filesystems under /mnt first ] # cd /mnt # ( cd / ; find . | grep -v '^\./mnt' | \ grep -v '^\.proc' | cpio --create --format=newc ) | \ cpio --extract I'm using the newc format, because as the cpio(1) manual says, it supports filesystems with more than 65535 i-nodes, and it avoids the "i-node number truncated" message that some times I used to get. You might also find it useful to pass --preserve-modification-time option to the --extract invocation of cpio. As you can see, there is no Ghost program in FreeBSD, but there is a very nice and relatively easy way to copy an installation of FreeBSD to some other disk. Sorry for the lengthy mail, but I hope that I've helped a little in making things a bit easier for you, even without the existence of Ghost for FreeBSD. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 12:57: 7 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hellasnet.gr (mail.hellasnet.gr [212.54.192.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 31B7037B422 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 12:57:05 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hades.hell.gr (ppp2.patr.hellasnet.gr [212.54.197.17]) by mail.hellasnet.gr (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id WAA28071; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 22:57:40 +0200 (GMT) Received: (from charon@localhost) by hades.hell.gr (8.11.0/8.11.0) id e8ACrEQ00591; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:53:14 +0300 (EEST) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:53:14 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Maria Isabel Reyes Ramirez Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: your mail Message-ID: <20000910155314.D274@hades.hell.gr> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.4i In-Reply-To: ; from reyesr@ixtchel.cs.buap.mx on Sat, Sep 09, 2000 at 12:56:15PM +0000 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 3A 75 52 EB F1 58 56 0D - C5 B8 21 B6 1B 5E 4A C2 X-URL: http://students.ceid.upatras.gr/~keramida/index.html Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, Sep 09, 2000 at 12:56:15PM +0000, Maria Isabel Reyes Ramirez wrote: > Hello! > > I love FreeBSD, I have a question: > can I install FreeBSD with Windows 2000 in de same machine? Yes, of course. But you should note here that Win2K is in the nasty habbit of overwriting your MBR when they are installed, which has the interesting side-effect of wiping away the FreeBSD boot loader if you have installed FreeBSD first. What I usually do is install Win2K first, in a disk that has 3 partitions, with the first partition being a 100 Mb BSD slice, the next being one Win2k partition, and the rest of the disk in another BSD slice. After Win2k is installed in the second partition, I install BSD and let it write it's own boot0 block in my MBR. I had no problems with this setup with FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE -> 4.1-STABLE, and Windows versions ranging from Win95 to Win2k. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 12:57:13 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hellasnet.gr (mail.hellasnet.gr [212.54.192.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 70DAD37B449 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 12:57:09 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hades.hell.gr (ppp2.patr.hellasnet.gr [212.54.197.17]) by mail.hellasnet.gr (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id WAA28076; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 22:57:43 +0200 (GMT) Received: (from charon@localhost) by hades.hell.gr (8.11.0/8.11.0) id e8ACmZ200550; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:48:35 +0300 (EEST) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:48:35 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Scott Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Has my box been compromised?

By now you know that what makes your disks go wild at approx 02:00 local time every day is the cron daemon running the script "periodic" for various daily maintenance and checking jobs. You can find exactly what cron runs by reading through /etc/crontab. The line that starts periodic is: 59 1 * * * root periodic daily 2>&1 | sendmail root and you can see exactly what scripts periodic executes by browsing through /etc/periodic/daily. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 12:57:21 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hellasnet.gr (mail.hellasnet.gr [212.54.192.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9F4E237B423 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 12:57:16 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hades.hell.gr (ppp2.patr.hellasnet.gr [212.54.197.17]) by mail.hellasnet.gr (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id WAA28080; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 22:57:47 +0200 (GMT) Received: (from charon@localhost) by hades.hell.gr (8.11.0/8.11.0) id e8ACLH800431; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:21:17 +0300 (EEST) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:21:16 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: nathan Cc: j mckitrick , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: what language should i learn next ?

Does anyone know why this just broke off without a > *real* error being given? The real error *was* given. However, since you were building with -j, the other 5 (non-terminated) make processes continued on until they realized that an error had occurred. This caused the real error to scroll off the screen, and gives the impression that it stopped in the middle of nowhere. When I build wiht -j, I usually do something like 'make -j6 2>&1 | tee /tmp/build.output' so that I've got a text log of the build which I can refer to when pseudo-strange things like this happen. -- Matthew Emmerton GSI Computer Services +1 (800) 217-5409 (Canada) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 13:45: 5 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4CF6937B422 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 13:45:00 -0700 (PDT) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=root) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.16 #1) id 13YDOb-00004i-00; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 21:08:09 +0100 Received: (from ben@localhost) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) id VAA43278; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 21:08:09 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from ben) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 21:08:08 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: JEAH Communications Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Missing TTY?

I would appreciate any help. This has been going on for awhile now. How many PTYs do you have configured into your kernel? Do the appropriate device nodes exist for all of those devices? (`ls /dev/[tp]ty*`) The problem might just be that too many people are logged in at any one time (or using PTYs for other things) so you can just add more to your kernel ('pseudo-device pty 256' or however many you want, IIRC) and make the devices. ('sh MAKEDEV pty0' makes 32, IIRC, 'sh MAKEDEV pty1' makes the next 32, and so on. I'm not 100% sure though so read the MAKEDEV script to check what it actually does.) -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 13:51: 1 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail1.netdirect.net (mail1.netdirect.net [209.212.192.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 368C937B423 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 13:50:59 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from simplem@localhost) by pop.netdirect.net (8.9.0/8.9.0) with UUCP id PAA20177 for questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:00:30 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: pop.netdirect.net: simplem set sender to kim@simple-mail.com using -f Received: from kim (adam.simple-mail.com [192.168.0.3]) by mail.simple-mail.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id PAA21439 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:27:41 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from kim@simple-mail.com) Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.20000910143958.00757d00@192.168.0.1> X-Sender: kim@192.168.0.1 X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 14:39:58 -0500 To: questions@freebsd.org From: "Kim J.

Probably yes, but when I moved my FreeBSD 4.1-S installation to the machine at work, I had my /, /var, /home and /usr partitions with different sizes. The disk that I installed BSD at home and configured most of the details in it was 6 Gb, but the destination disk was a 9 Gb disk. I'm almost sure that using dd(1) will also be slower, on a relatively empty partition, since cpio(1) will not copy those areas of the disk that are not used for data. That work is easier and a lot safer to do with newfs anyway :-) - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Sep 10 15:34:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from w8hd.w8hd.org (w8hd.w8hd.org [198.252.159.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 07B3C37B422 for ; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:34:06 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (fbsd@localhost) by w8hd.w8hd.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id SAA77382; Sun, 10 Sep 2000 18:33:38 -0400 (EDT) X-Authentication-Warning: w8hd.w8hd.org: fbsd owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2000 18:33:37 -0400 (EDT) From: Kim Culhan X-Sender: fbsd@w8hd.w8hd.org To: nturki@adelphia.net Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Fast cheap video for X 4.0.1 on FreeBSD 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 Greetings- Recently I needed decent X performance on a machine running 5.0-current and the video card in it was unsupported (a Number Nine SR9.)

I've modified the subject on your question, as I suspect this is not really an issue of "cvs" per se. It's really a question on how softupdates moved into the standard system. This has worked for me on 4.x-stable, but maybe something isn't quite right for people trying to do this with 3.x-stable.

I think you'll find the / partition will be the mfs partition from the fixit disk. To make changes to the root partition on your disk, you'll have to mount it first. Something like: # mount /dev/ad0s1 /mnt should do the trick (assuming you want to mount the first slice on the first IDE disk). You can then proceed to edit your fstab, which will be located at /mnt/etc/fstab. Nick. -- From a Sun Microsystems bug report (#4102680): "Workaround: don't pound on the mouse like a wild monkey."

How do I go about setting that up? The user is already part of wheel, and just about everything in that directory is owned by the wheel group. As such I believe I should be able to run it... but I still get permission denied. I would change the permissions on the file it self, or even the owner of the file, but I don't want to have to do that with every file, or accidently create security holes... The only major problem I can figure is that both those two programs uses devices in the /dev directory which may be giving the permission denied error instead. How would I go about fixing that? Should I make the operator group and add my users into that also? Then make the whole /dev directory owned by group operator (or even just certain devices that are needed,) or will that cause problems too?

I have a suite of servers doing CGI processing that get hit about this often, and they are running on Intel I 1250 boxes. They have L440GX+ motherboards, dual P3/550 cpu's and 512 M of ram each. The cpu power is only needed because the CGI processing is highly intensive. They are all running various incarnations of FreeBSD 4.x, and the best performing ones are using 4.1-Stable. If you are doing high-availability web serving (in other words, your business is dead if the web page isn't up) you want at least two boxes running behind a load balancing solution of some sort, such as Foundry or ArrowPoint. Make sure that you are actually balancing the load between the two machines... the idea of keeping a "spare" machine to fire up as needed is usually fraught with danger.

We are using a FreeBSD box with 2 nic's in it, which is running ipfw. Yesterday, I had to power down the box to place it into a new server cabinet. Since switching it back on, the hubs that both nic's are connected to, show collision lights for those ports only, permanently. In other words, the collision lights are on ALL the time. My concern is that I have a media mis-match, as all hubs are half-duplex by design and both cards are running full-duplex. I did an ifconfig -a for the two nic's (accton cheetah 10/100) and this is the result for both nic's: rl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.x ether 00:10:h5:42:7d:69 media: autoselect (100baseTX) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX (hw loopback) rl1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xfffffffc broadcast x.x.x.x ether 00:10:h5:42:7b:f1 media: autoselect (none) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX (hw loopback) Looking through the man page for ifconfig, it appears I need to do the following for both interfaces: ifconfig rl0 media 10baseT/UTP ifconfig rl1 media 10baseT/UTP Am I correct? Will I lose the IP addresses and/or other parameters by typing the above commands in?

Reboot into the new installation. Actually, this does quite a bit more than ghost does. Ghost backs up partitions, not systems. I would also call this the sysv way, not the freebsd way. cpio was an AT&T tool that gnu copied. Historically, bsd didn't come with cpio, but used tar for that functionality. Generally, I copy each file system in a distinct step, because I normally deal with systems that have multiple disks. The steps are: 1. Create the slices / labels on the second disk. (unchanged) 2. For each old partition: A. Mount the new one on /mnt. B. (cd /; tar -lcf - .) | (cd /mnt; tar xf -) C. Unmount it. 3. Use boot0cfg on the new disk to set up the boot loader on it. 3.

If you want to take that approach with find/cpio, you can use the "x" option on find to keep it on one file systems. > You might also find it useful to pass --preserve-modification-time > option to the --extract invocation of cpio.

As you can see, the problem with Unix (as opposed to alternative operating systems) is not finding how something is done, but choosing the most appropriate method from those available. ; Mon, 11 Sep 2000 05:57:17 -0700 (PDT) Received: (qmail 64123 invoked by uid 100); 11 Sep 2000 12:56:39 -0000 From: Mike Meyer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <14780.54919.871891.972565@guru.mired.org> Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2000 07:56:39 -0500 (CDT) To: "Jonathan M.

Slivko To answer the real question: You didn't upgrade to the wrong branch. 3.5.0 and 3.5.1 are both snapshots of 3.5-STABLE. If you cvsupped a version after the 3.5.1 release date, then the system you're running is 3.5.1-RELEASE + fixes, which is presumably what you want. > P.S.

Since what you downloaded was an update to what you had already installed, deleting them would involve deleting the OS.

I haven't updated the source for about a week or two, but I hoped the bktr support hasn't changed that much since then. On a side note, after rebooting into W98 on the same box, and having all the other hardware installed, I installed the manufacture's drivers, and viola, the FM tuner part was recognized. FreeBSD could recognized the BrookTree chip, but it didn't recognized the tuner, which displays the PCI vendor code of BrookTree (0x109e = http://www.yourvote.com/pci/pciread.asp?venid=0x109E). I tried tweaking my kernel by looking at the source for bktr (/sys/dev/bktr I think, I'm at work right now...), but to no avail. I don't have a sound card currently installed (getting one soon, and paying OSS for the drivers), so I don't know if that's throwing the kernel off, but shouldn't this tuner get recognized properly?

Snip from ypserv(8) manpage: To make up for this, the FreeBSD version of ypserv handles the master.passwd.byname and master.passwd.byuid maps in a special way. When the server receives a request to access either of these two maps, it will check the TCP port from which the request originated and return an error if the port number is greater than 1023. Since only the superuser is al- lowed to bind to TCP ports with values less than 1024, the server can use this test to determine whether or not the access request came from a privileged user. Any requests made by non-privileged users are therefore rejected. This sounds like a wonderful thing, but why only tcp? I don't want people to ypcat master.passwd and get all the encrypted passwords on my system. I verified that a ypmatch uses udp on a port >1023 witch tcpdump: ypmatch pavalos master.passwd pavalos:*SNIPPED*:501:1000::0:0:pavalos:/usr/home/prm/pavalos:/bin/bash 06:35:27.149969 lithium.theshell.com.stun-port > lithium.theshell.com.778: udp 88 06:35:27.150136 lithium.theshell.com.778 > lithium.theshell.com.stun-port: udp 108 stun-port 1994/udp #cisco serial tunnel port So my question is: Is this a configuration error, or a 'feature' (bug)?

Also, does anyone know of a good backup strategy or program for zip drives? I don't have a tape, and i don't want to dump all of /etc and /home, since a lot of that would be unnecessary for a system restore, and also wastes time. So far, I dump the output of pkg_info to my home directory. I am also considering just building a list of paths and filenames and use this as arguments for tar and bzip.

I have just received 4.1R cdroms and I wanted to install it on top of my 4.0R. I booted the first CD, changed the keyboard and selected upgrade. Then I choosed bin, man, doc, lib and XFREE, give the partitions the correct label. When the machine reboot, the kernel panic (priviliged instrution) with current process as swapper. If boot selecting kernel.prev (4.0R), it boot quite right. I wanted to know if there were some reports (a query with 4.1 and panic on freebsd-questions does not give me expected results) about 4.1R faulting. To summarize: Proc: Pentuim 166MMX MB: intel with i430VX (somethinh like that) 4.0R-GENERIC: OK 4.1R-INSTALL from CDROM: OK 4.1R-GENERIC: panic Any advice, pointers and help is welcome. Phil.

Any other suggestions? Well, I've got this old perl script that I whipped up ages ago. You'll need netpbm and jpeg installed. The command like options you most likely want are: ./genindex -s index -f jpg [-i] You will need to edit a couple of paths near the top of the script if you want to use the -i option, just point them to the included html files (and modify those if you want. :) The -i generates HTML index pages with clickable imagemaps. Be warned, the netpbm code still has a bug that occasionally munges the colors on the generated index page.
