I just logged onto an old 2.2.8 system I set up wa-ay back. vprintf(3) sure is in stdio as I was sure it would. BTW, was there a reason you sent this twice under different subjects? -- Crist J.

Probably has nothing to do with an interface card. Do you have a card that uses the ed(4) device? How did you build Samba? From the ports? -- Crist J.

Are you booting from the CD or booting from floppies? Where did you get this CD and what is supposed to be on it? As for the graphics card, that is a XFree86 issue, not really FreeBSD. See, http://www.xfree86.org But IIRC, you'll at least be able to use it in SVGA mode. Not sure what you might be able to do as far as any special features of the card. I know it's been discussed 10e6 times on this list. You might want to search the archive. -- Crist J.

I've got a Highpoint Technologies HPT370 ATA66+ controller integrated into my ABIT KA7-100 motherboard. FreeBSD works perfectly when my harddrive is on my regular master IDE channel. When I put the drive on the ATA100 IDE bus, FreeBSD will boot but it can't find the root file system. What I find strange is that it seems to find this controller during the boot process. During boot the screen displays: atapci1 (High Point HPT366 ATA66 controller) port blah irq 11 at device 19.0 on pci0 ata2 at blah on atapci1 The system seems to have found what I'm looking for... but I can't (or don't know how) to get the manual root file system thingy to work. If I try "ufs:/dev/pci0" I get an error Fatal Trap 12, a page fault. I try ufs:/dev/ata2 and it says there are no devices ata (or atapci for that matter). From that boot prompt I can get the system to display even the FreeBSD file system off this drive on the ATA100 device with the command lsdev. However, with all of this said, I can't get FreeBSD to find root. Is there anything I can try?! Please help me! If you need more information I would be glad to supply it!

The error message you pasted shouldn't have happened, since 2.2.8 does have vprintf(). Either you are building curl wrong, or your archive is damaged.

I haven't tried running an X-server on windows but it is my understanding that VNC sends a lot less data.

After the etherboot 3c509.com loads, and finds the bootpd server, downloads the kernel, and the kernel starts to boot, it freezes at "bootpc_init: using network interface 'ep0'" This is the server: FreeBSD nova 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE #0: Fri Aug 4 19:26:40 CDT 2000 root@nova:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NOVA i386 I have tftp and bootp commented out of a generic /etc/inetd.conf file. Here's /etc/exports: /usr -maproot=0:0 -alldirs ndisk0.test.org I copied GENERIC, and added the following for a DISKLESS kernel: options NFS options NFS_ROOT options BOOTP options BOOTP_NFSROOT options BOOTP_COMPAT ... and removed the FFS_ROOT option. I installed the kernel in /usr/tftpboot as kernel. /usr/tftpboot is symlinked to /tftpboot. I also hardlinked /usr/tftpboot/kernel to /usr/diskless/rootfs/{client} as kernel. My /etc/bootptab file looks like this: .enet:\ :ds=192.168.0.10 192.168.0.5:\ :sm=255.255.255.0:\ :dn=test.org:\ :gw=fw1:vm=rfc1048:t=ether: ndisk0:ha=0020afcace47:bf=/tftpboot/kernel:ip=192.168.0.15:tc=.enet: I then created a /tftpboot/cfg.192.168.0.15 that looks like this: rootfs 192.168.0.10:/usr/diskless/rootfs/192.168.0.15 swapfs 192.168.0.10:/usr/diskless/swapfs swapsize 20000 hostname ndisk0.test.org And lastly, I'm using ehterboot-4.6.1, and created 3c509.com for the bootrom. It works, and can transfer the ELF kernel over, which does boot. It just stalls out at the bootpc_init line, which I'm still thinking is in the kernel process. Any suggestions? TIA, Jon p.s.

Server not routing packets anymore... 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 have a FreeBSD 4.1-R server that has 2 NICs in it. The first NIC, ed0, is on a /30 netblock that is just this machine and the gateway to my ISP. The other NIC, ed1, is on a seperate /29 netblock and serves as the gateway for the 5 computers behind it. I have all the PCs (mixed environment Windows, FreeBSD and Mac) set up with static IPs on the same netblock as ed1 and using ed1's IP as the gateway aaddress. The problem is that none of the PCs can talk to the outside world thru the server. The server has connectivity to the outside world, but does not seem to be routing packets out for the other machines behind it. From my FreeBSD box running behind the server I can SSH into the server, but I can's SSH or ping to the outside world. Here is what I have in my rc.conf file: hostname="route-1.damn-cool.net" defaultrouter="209.134.127.238" gateway_enable="YES" router_enable="YES" ifconfig_ed0="inet 209.134.127.237 netmask 255.255.255.252" ifconfig_ed1="inet 209.134.101.81 netmask 255.255.255.248" linux_enable="YES" #firewall_enable="YES" #firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall" #firewall_type="OPEN" log_in_vain="YES" forward_sourceroute="YES" and here is what netstat -r gives for output: Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire default 209.134.127.238 UGSc 3 14 ed0 localhost localhost UH 0 0 lo0 209.134.101.80 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 3 ed1 => 209.134.101.80/29 link#2 UC 0 0 ed1 => route-1 0:20:78:13:4d:49 UHLW 0 12 lo0 209.134.127.236/30 link#1 UC 0 0 ed0 => route-1 0:20:78:13:43:b9 UHLW 0 6 lo0 209.134.127.238 0:0:c:45:5c:44 UHLW 3 3 ed0 1137 If anyone has any ideas I would greatly apreciate it.

Seems if an IP address connects to my server that won't resolve, then NIS hangs the session and I end up with stacks of sendmail and ftpd's that just pile up till the box gets overloaded with processes.. :( As an example, here is a netstat from one of the machines: tcp4 0 0 mail1.ftp nts2.1634 TIME_WAIT tcp4 0 0 mail1.smtp fj.egroups.com.19006 TIME_WAIT yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out Note the Timed out messages will just keep on scrolling, and the netstat will never return to the shell prompt unless I break out of the process. So really any program that needs DNS resolution this could happen to. I have several machines in the NIS group, all are FBSD 4.0 or 4.1, some are Intel, and some are DEC Alpha, and they all do the exact same thing. Any ideas, as I have to keep rebooting every couple days to clear the thousands of processes that just stack up over time.. :( --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 13 12:10:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from merganser.its.uu.se (merganser.its.uu.se [130.238.6.236]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 63FAE37B9D0 for ; Sun, 13 Aug 2000 12:10:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ertr1013@student.uu.se) Received: from regulus.student.UU.SE ([130.238.5.2]:44647 "HELO convert rfc822-to-8bit ertr1013.student.uu.se") by merganser.its.uu.se with SMTP id ; Sun, 13 Aug 2000 21:10:15 +0200 Received: (qmail 2387 invoked by uid 1001); 13 Aug 2000 19:10:23 -0000 Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 21:10:23 +0200 From: Erik Trulsson To: Mark Ovens Cc: mojgan kazemi , questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: question!

As a summer project, I thought I would take an old 486DX2-66 with 16M RAM and load an operating system that wasn't controlled by Microsoft. It was meant to be a learning experience since I don't interface with Unix on a daily basis. The final objective is to see if I can get this old box running as a network server and tie in the two Windows clients I have in the house into a mini home network. Good idea until I ran into the following problem, a solution for which I would gratefully accept: The PC has an EISA motherboard with an SMC LAN card and a SCSI HD as well as a SCSI CD ROM. I created the image floppies as described in the install instructions and all seemed to be going well, including the partitioning of the HD. A quick look with SCROLL LOCK ON shows the following last four lines: cd0: Removeable CD-ROM SCSI-2 drive cd0: 3.300 MB/s transfers cd0: cd present [62118 x 2048 byte records] /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 The CD reference above is a distribution of FreeBSD 4.1 release that I pulled down off the Net and burned onto the CD. I believe I have captured all the most important (essential) sub-directories off the Net (bin, crypto, etc) All goes well until I try to install the FreeBSD distribution off CDROM when I get the following error message: Error mounting /dev/cd0c on /dist: No such file or directory(2) With my non-existent Unix skills I am now at a loss as to what to do next. Can you "kick-start" me in the right direction and I'll go ahead and either read some more or make the necessary configuration changes to get this release loaded.

If you want to burn your own CD you should get the iso-image of 4.1-RELEASE and burn that. Trying to make it work by getting individual files/directories is non-trivial to say the least.

My address will be dynamically assigned, and it seems that both PPPoE and dhclient take care of this. But after a little more reading, it seems that dhclient is for a true Ethernet, whereas I should stick with PPPoE, right? Do I have to make changes to /etc/rc.conf like this: ifconfig_xl0="DHCP" or should I just leave it alone, since my PPPoE connection will be using the tun0 device?

You need to be a client, which uses the ppp client software. Keep your dialup configuration in your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file; add the PPPoE configuration as a separate label. Say your dialup configuration is labeled "dialup:" and the PPPoE is labeled "ether:".

Leave it alone. Here's a piece of my ppp.conf which configures tun0 and your choice of ethernet device to do PPPoE. (You'd change ed1 to xl0).

I run a FreeBSD-based web server with Apache, hosting multiple (name-based) virtual hosts. Now, this server is co-located, and the provider limits us by either bandwidth, or data transfer per month. At the moment, we're on the latter scheme because it's cheaper, and we're a quite low traffic host (this'll change... ;) Clearly, our provider is limiting us on a packet-by-packet basis, more than likely with software in the router we dangle off. Now, I'd like to implement a similar bandwidth/data quantity limiting system for my clients, so I can prevent one website eating up all my bandwidth. Particularly, I'd like to limit the traffic from each VirtualHost on the server. This accounting would therefore have to be done at the HTTP level. Now, I've looked through the Apache docs, and I can't find any references to any functionality of this sort (though I may have missed it). So, my question is: is there a piece of software which can 'proxy' these http requests? Oh, two things have just sprung to mind: - I can't guarantee that all http requests will be on port 80. I plan to offer a Zope hosting service, which may well live on a different port, depending on how I decide to set it up; - As soon as I said 'proxy', squid sprang to mind. However, can squid do the limiting I require, rather than a simple yes/no access control (I'll post this one in the squid mailing list). Also, this machine is a bit limited on memory - a huge squid cache is the last thing it needs. Many thanks for reading this, and again, sorry for the only marginal relation to FreeBSD... ;) Cheers, Dan ===== Daniel Fairs dan@spiderplant.no-spam.net System Administrator spiderplant.net ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

(assuming the machine has multiple > IP addresses) I've never tried it, but it is at least theoritically possible to use ipfw to filter based on the owner of the local process, so you could reject any packets that the user sends or receives, unless they're to the one allowed IP address. This isn't the exact mechanism you're looking for, so I don't know if it will solve the problem you're running into. It would take two ipfw rules, the first being a skipto skipping past the second rule, matching if it is the allowed IP address, the second denying if it is the restricted user.

Second, make sure you are not using NIS for host resolution, then NIS will not even be queried. It is bad idea unless you distribute /etc/hosts via NIS, which is not a such good idea in the era of DNS anyhow.

I've had very bad luck with these things in the past, but maybe I'm just not going about it the right way. HPT-366 + ARCO DupliDisk hardware IDE RAID = major mistake... No DOS driver for the HPT, ARCO's software doesn't work under Windows. When I finally did get things to work, ARCO's software said it was gonna take roughly 27 years to mirror one 40 Gig Maxtor to the other 40 Gig Maxtor in the DupliDisk caddie. NOT acceptable. Aside from that point, here's a couple of ideas: 1. Maybe there's a driver for the controller for FreeBSD somewhere? I know that they generally produce drivers for Linux, so there may be hope for a specific driver out there. 2. If that doesn't work, why not try installing FreeBSD with the drive connected to the ATA-100 controller? Crazy as it seems, that might actually fix the problem. I know that Promise tells users that reformat a drive when moving it from one controller to another to prevent compatiblity issues. Maybe you're running into one of those issues here... --- Andy > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Zach Johnson > Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2000 6:12 AM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: ATA100 bus... can't find root fs > > First of all, I use FreeBSD 4.1-Release... > > I've got a Highpoint Technologies HPT370 ATA66+ controller integrated > into my ABIT KA7-100 motherboard.

I saw some kernel options for specifying the device where the root filesystem is. I'm going to try to play with that. It seems to me if FreeBSD can boot of the drive while on the ATA100 bus, all it would have to do is understand it needs to continue reading from the same device, but it tries to find the root filesystem on my primary and secondary ATA buses (ATA66). I wonder if I can do anything to make it recognize the ATA100 and it's disks properly... Thanks again, Zach Johnson -- SEND HELP! ;-) "Andrew C.

I never did associate those messages with a specific process tho'. They'd just start to pop up in a xterm and I'd kill the term. Never saw any long lasting problems.

If I could get some info about how the sources are organised and what each files does it would be very useful(some thing like chapter 16 in book linux device drivers book by alessandro rubini).

Thank you for your help Tony --=====================_90163238==_.ALT Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" The problem I have Im sure is common one but I have found no
answers to this in the handbook.

situation:  have a server with boot drive thats getting old, want to copy
the entire boot drive and boot records to the new drive and replace the drive.
I can not take the server down to do the dos program  drive image or ghost.
( I want to do this with having to use any dos programs, free myself from bill )
the problem is the server Im going to clone is in a different location than I am
I want to have everything ready to just walk in and add the drive.
so this is what I have done. 

made a dump file of the old boot drive
dump -0ua -f /tmp/backup/boot.dump /dev/wd0s1a
gzip boot.dump and ftp'd it to my local workstation.
( I would have liked to done dump | retore over tcp but I dont know to )
      
I then added a new hd to my workstation.
cd /stand
sysintall
post configuration
fdisk
   I selected the new drive on mine was ( ad2 )
   in the fdisk menu I picked "a" ( entire disk )
   then I picked "s" ( make bootable)
   picked "w" to write the info to the disk
   I picked standard boot manager
disk label  
   picked "c" create new slice
   added /dev/ad2s1b none swap
         /dev/ad2s1e /mnt ufs
      "w" wrote the update, it ran fsck and mounted my new drive to /mnt
I then
   cd /mnt
   cp /tmp/boot.dump.gz .
   gunzip boot.dump
   restore -rf boot.dump /dev/ad2s1e
after restore was done I went and changed the /mnt/etc/fstab
  commented out the other drive from the old server and add
  /dev/ad0s1b   none swap   
  /dev/ad0s1e   /    ufs
then did a shutdown and removed new hard drive, put the drive in
a new system and booted it.
the screen says
 invalid partition
 invalid partition
 no /boot/loader
 
 defualt: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel
 boot:
 invalid partition
 no /kernel
 
so I type this in
0:ad0(0,e)/kernel

 panic: rslock: cpu: 0, addr: 0x02c3770, lock: 0x00000001
 mp_lock = 00000001; cpuid = 0; lapic.id = 0000000
 automatic reboot in 15 sec

the kernel was for a multi cpu server and I was trying to boot on a single
cpu. so I tried
0:ad0(0,e)/kernel.old

and it booted with the old single cpu kernel.
( I will be using the multi cpu kernel when I install the new hd back
into the real server)
now Im lost at how to change it so it boots to
0:ad(0,e)/kernel  when it picks ad(0,a)
I though I do it with command fdisk but I didnt understand what I should
do.

If there is something I have not done correctly please let me know.
or if there is a better and faster way to do this.
once I know how all of this works and fits together I would like to
get it added to the How-to to help other people and credit who help
in completion of this.

Thank you for your help

They helped a lot, specially the part of sacrificing the chicken to install X :) I'm almost running exactly the same environment in FreeBSD and Debian, but there are still some doubts/problems -- I'll ask them in another emai. Before I thought that answering my previous questions may help someone else in the same situation. So: > 1. I tried configuring my ethernet card by hand, using ifconfig, and > it worked out. But where (or using which program) should I configure > it permanently ? -- I didn't find this info in the Handbook, is there > some other docs I'm missing ?

It configured /etc/rc.conf (or rc.local, I don't remember) and created /etc/resolv.conf for me too. > 2. it would be nice if both systems (FreeBSD and Linux) would share > the same /home/ partition. Which (and why?) partition format should I > use: ufs or ext2 ? I mean, Linux docs states that ufs support > is experimental, and I read somewhere that ext2 is also unstable in > FreeBSD. Both seems to support msdos partitions quite well, but I > wouldn't be happy if I need to use it :) as my /home partition supported "sparse super blocks(?)" and file types in the directories, I had to reformat it (mk2efs) without this options. (Using tune2fs didn't work) -- and move lots of files around. Ahn, and I had to recompile the FreeBSD kernel to support EXT2FS -- it compiles really fast! > 3. to configure XFree86 for FreeBSD I just copied my linux > configuration file, changed the fonts and pointer sections. Very > strangely, when X started, my monitor (a ViewSonic 17", > 1280x1024x60Hz) would complain about invalid frequency ... The card is > a S3 Savage4,and XFree86 is 6.3.3.6 in both systems. Any idea about > what could be causing this ? (I tried lower frequencies, like > 1024x768x60Hz, and then it worked ...) The sacrificed chicken really helped here. I decided to recompile the X11-SVGA. While downloading the files, following a "mysterious" instinct, I went to the ftp site and looked around. I found some fixes, one of them a "savage" fix ... So, I cancelled the "make", made it a "make extract", applied the patches, "make", "make install" ... tandan, it worked ... well almost, I still had to fix by hand a Imakefile and the configuration to support the "savage" chipset, because it's not included by default in other OSs but Linux. But there is still a problem, though working, I haven't got the faintest idea why, the flickers on the left border ... I should have made it (the sacrifice) a goat, I guess ? > 4.

Working in terminal mode, I see that after entering my login and password, I get to a menu that lets me choose PPP, SLIP or terminal access. I can only choose PPP and SLIP. I've asked around, and apparently my ISP (and most others) do not give out ppp access to ttys. Is there anywork around to this? Thanks in advance.

However, please find attached a short c program written by Omachonu Ogali that allows normal users to mount the cdrom (you can obviously modify it to mount the floppy as well). To install it, simply do the following: (as root) cc -o sucd sucd.c chmod 4555 sucd mv sucd /usr/local/bin What you're doing there is setting the binary as setuid which allows people to execute it as root, and allows them to mount/unmount the CD. I would warn against this. ONLY root should ever mount/unmount file systems, so unless you _really_ trust these users, I wouldn't allow this. Hope this helps.

He means the BSD UFS driver *in Linux* is experimental, as is the EXT2 driver in FreeBSD. I settled down on using FAT32 to share a partition between Windows 2000, Linux and FreeBSD. If there was a better solution, like NTFS driver in FreeBSD I would like to hear it. By the way I am not surprised that there are not many pluggabble 3rd party filesystems are available under Win32: The IFS kit is quite expensive.

Hmm.. if it is just about backdoors then it is clear that it is still possible to have hidden vulnerabilities in an open source code, but it is obviously much, much harder to hide such before all eyes than with closed code. There are a couple of security gurus who say that the strongness of a security system should not rely on hidden information about its workings. Look for "security by obscurity". A nice page is this one (by renowned expert Bruce Schneier) http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram.html Especially Microsoft was accused to have a backdoor, this is Schneier's opinion on the incident (who thinks it was a bad choice in naming) http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram-9909.html#NSAKeyinMicrosoftCryptoAPI Regards, Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 6:50:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-in-01.piro.net (mail-out-02.piro.net [194.64.31.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DEEBE37B6F0 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 06:50:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com) Received: from nil.science-factory.com (ScienceFactory-atm1-153.piro.net [195.135.137.205]) by mail-in-01.piro.net (8.9.3/8.9.3/PN-991208) with ESMTP id PAA09968; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:49:45 +0200 Received: by nil.science-factory.com (Postfix, from userid 501) id 6ACFF2002; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:47:29 +0200 (CEST) From: Marc van Woerkom To: jc@jc.eti.br Cc: questions@freebsd.org In-reply-to: <002701c0056e$eaf24020$fc04dfc8@pchome> (jc@jc.eti.br) Subject: Re: console font References: <002701c0056e$eaf24020$fc04dfc8@pchome> Message-Id: <20000814134729.6ACFF2002@nil.science-factory.com> Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:47:29 +0200 (CEST) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > i tried the font8x .... option in rc.conf, but any font i tried was smaller. > > i'd like to see more text in a " page" in console...

You can brute force anything, if you have enough time and fast enough equipment :-) I would suggest this recent statement by Bruce Schneier on DES: http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram-0006.html#DES The algorithm is still considered safe, what has changed during the years is the key length necessary to keep ahead of the hardware. That key lenght obviously has to be more than 56 bits today.

This was in fact, the hint I needed. The geometry was set to strange values, resetting it to 522/255/63 (for a 4G drive), solved the problem. After that, the system did boot correctly, and I could move on to the next problem (getting the SMP kernel running, which finally succeeded, as well). I'm still wondering if the wrong geometry settings could result from the prior solaris installation, or from unsuccessful installation attempts ? I always thought geometry settings are sort of alway right with scsi disks ... So thanks a lot for your help.

Running the binary in FreeBSD gives some trouble... I've come to the point where it keeps asking for the CD to be mounted even when I've mounted the CD almost everywhere, including copying the contents to /usr/compat/linux/cdrom and run the binary in a chroot'ed linux bash shell. Anyway, in RH 6.1 it runs fine (but I didn't succeed yet in getting my voodoo2 card to work in Linux... it works well in FreeBSD 4.0 on the same machine with the exact same rpm...). Also, I installed libmikmod in /usr/compat/linux so now I have music in ut :-). Would it be useful that I write some notes about it so it can be added to the above mentioned ut-page? How about the patching? People without a Linux distro are in trouble. An option is to redistribute the patched files in some form (would need Loki permission I guess?) or to keep trying to hack the Linux patch binary some more... BTW, patching from 4.00 to 4.13 can be done quite easily in FreeBSD, but this step is not needed for 4.00 -> 4.25. A cool thing about 4.25 is that it supports OpenGL, so it should work on a wider variety of cards than the 4.00 version (only 3dfx). I didn't try yet, but I think that I'll give it a shot with my G200. Regards, Karel.

VNC allows my company to use only a few Linux and Solaris systems (with 1-6 processors each) without having to put one on everyone's desk. Since 90% of our EDA tools are UNIX-based, we save a lot of time and money. > I haven't tried running an X-server on windows but it is my understanding > that VNC sends a lot less data.

They have both XFree 3.3.6 and 4.0.1 running on Windows NT, and have recently added a barrage of X-Servers for framebuffer, DirectX, GDI and GDI via VNC server. Damn would it be tasty to get multiple VNC servers running on Windows, would allow us to start booting Linux more since all we use Windows for is Office. Better yet is the fact that more and more EDA tools are being ported from Solaris to Linux. Maybe FreeBSD will get some recognition some day and we'll see commercial EDA tools for it as well. -- TheBS -- Bryan "TheBS" Smith CONTACT INFO *********************************************************** Chat: thebs413 @ AOL/MSN/Yahoo (see http://Everybuddy.com) Email: mailto:thebs@theseus.com,b.j.smith@ieee.org Legal: http://www.SmithConcepts.com/legal.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 8:12:19 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AB0ED37BCE6; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 08:11:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id KAA03452; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:11:38 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan) Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:11:38 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG, Adam Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Suspending the monitor Message-ID: <20000814101137.A3184@dan.emsphone.com> References: <00081401550600.00366@flexor> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.7i In-Reply-To: <00081401550600.00366@flexor>; from "Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG" on Mon Aug 14 01:51:43 GMT 2000 X-OS: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode (Aug 14), Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG said: > Hello, I have enabled apm in my bios on my wks, what I would like to > do is suspend the monitor on the machine after a timed amount of no > activity.

I have an HP LaserJet III plugged into lpt0 on irq 7 and the kernel is the stock-standard 4.0-RELEASE GENERIC kernel. (Haven't got around to recompiling yet, as everything so far seems to be OK, except for this, and I also finished installing not long ago). I am running a single standalone machine, connected to other computers only via ppp. I have set up a very simple (but fully functional) /etc/printcap with magicfilter-1.2 as my input filter: spudgun|lp|lj3|hplj3|Hewlett Packard LaserJet III:\ :sh:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/spudgun:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/magicfilter/ljet3-filter:\ :lf=/var/log/spudgun.log: My files actually do print properly, but the *problem* is that I cannot cancel jobs... lpq won't do it, lpc wont't work, kill -9 'ing lpd then restarting lpd doesn't work, neither does turning the printer off then back on again. THe only solution is to reboot the computer. While all this is going on the kernel spits out error messages such as: Aug 15 00:07:33 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:08:02 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:08:28 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:12:34 last message repeated 2 times Aug 15 00:12:34 /kernel: too many stray irq 7's; not logging any more This is what's in my dmesg (but I got it from /var/log/messages): Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppc0: at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppc0: Generic chipset (NIBBLE-only) in COMPATIBLE mode Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppi0: on ppbus0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: lpt0: on ppbus0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: lpt0: Interrupt-driven port Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: plip0: on ppbus0 The system is still reasonably "pure". Apart from having installed a few packages like magicfilter, ghostscript, and tcsh, the only way it differs from a stock standard 4.0-RELEASE system is that it I've been trying to set up printing. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

However, dmesg only outputs 64M of RAM. I saw a previous post from 1999 involving the same topic on a dell. Is this a problem with the BIOS/CMOS on the dells not reporting the correct amount of memory? More importantly, how would I fix this? I see the MAXMEM option in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT but it looks like it is currently set to 128M. Is that the default for the generic kernel or does the generic kernel just pull from the board and leave MAXMEM set to what it finds? I am assuming I could fix this problem by setting MAXMEM to 128 in my kernel config file and compile the new kernel. Is that correct? Thanks for the time and help.

It is not the OS - on its own that is the key, it is the applications you are running on it, the environment you run it in and the administrative procedures you wrap aruond the bundle. The O/S is but a small part of the equation. If you have a mission critical application that is made vulnerable by a single o/s based backdoor then you have no security anyway. It is not the OS - on its own that is the key, it is the applications you are running on it, the environment you run it in and the administrative procedures you wrap around the bundle. I would get this stuff right before I worry about rinkydink backdoors that may or may not exist. As to open source what guarantee do you have that that crucial bit of code has actually been looked at by somebody who has understood it's ramifications and has published their findings. Just because it is open source does not mean per se, it is better or backdoor or bug free. -- Mark Rowlands +4686224510 GMT + 1 _______________________________________________ These opinions are mine, they are just opinions you are free to disagree, please do so quietly _______________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 9:31:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ptavv.es.net (ptavv.es.net [198.128.4.29]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D84D37BAFC for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from oberman@ptavv.es.net) Received: from ptavv.es.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ptavv.es.net (8.10.1/8.10.1) with ESMTP id e7EGVsU15464 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:54 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200008141631.e7EGVsU15464@ptavv.es.net> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Significance of PCVT_SCANSET Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:54 -0700 From: "Kevin Oberman" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The LINT file in STABLE (and every release I could find) includes this note: # This PCVT option is for keyboards such as those used on IBM ThinkPad laptops options PCVT_SCANSET=2 # IBM keyboards are non-std I run 4.1 on a ThinkPad 600E and have never had any problem even though this option is commented out.

If you just want to learn more about the O/S, here the problems and the questions that others have regarding FreeBSD then subscribe to this list, (send an email containing the words 'subscribe freebsd-questions' in the body of the message to 'majordomo@freebsd.org'). As for IRC, there are a lot of people who nock it, but I love it. I've been using FreeBSD now for about 4 years, and OpenBSD now for about 6 months. Anytime I have a question I ask it in IRC first; if I don't get an answer within five-ten minutes, then I send an email to this list. Response time from this list varies, but you'll usually get an answer (or multiple), within an hour. Some simple things to live by in IRC: #1 - DO NOT ask if you can ask a question - this usually makes people ignore you; just flat out ask you're question #2 - be patient; if someone knows the answer they will probably give it, but most IRC users are also busy doing other things besides IRC. #3 - stick to freebsd channels, some #freebsd's (like EFNET's) refuse to be technical support forums. Here's a good list to start with as far as IRC help goes (for BSD anyhow): DalNet- irc.dal.net:7000 / #freebsd EFNet- irc.chat.org / #freebsdhelp EFNet- irc.chat.org / #openbsd As for the Linux vs FreeBSD issue, I understand that Linux is supposedly more 'user-friendly', but I tend to disagree. I don't like clicking-and-dragging my way through things; it seems a lot of things are becoming more X-Windows oriented for the Linux environment than really need be. Call me old fashioned, but I like my console. I've tried various distributions of Linux, (mandrake, slackware, openlinux, redsplat, debian), but I never cared for them. I like the simplicity BSD offers, as well as the stability. Maybe I am a little biased here, but I don't care. I like FreeBSD, or BSD in general for that matter. As for OpenBSD, I can't really comment much; I've only been using it for a few months now but thus far I really like what I see. I'm using OpenBSD 2.7/SPARC, and I will be working with OpenBSD 2.7/i386 some time soon just to get a feel for it. Anyhow, that's my two cents, hope it helps you. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 9:53: 0 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.wmptl.com (mail2.wmptl.com [216.221.73.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2342837BAFC for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:52:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Received: from wmptl.com ([10.0.0.168]) by mail2.wmptl.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA23960; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 12:50:45 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Message-ID: <39982356.C9B1018@wmptl.com> Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 12:50:30 -0400 From: Nathan Vidican X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Mike Meyer Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dual-Athlon vs Dual-PIII ... opinions?

You're comparing apples-to-oranges here. To be fair, run a 500mhz Athlon system next to a 500mhz Xeon box and see what you come up with. This posting was regarding the Athlon... not the K6-2. I'd pit my Athlon 800mhz box against your dual PII 400 box any day of the week, it's anything but sluggish.

Thanks. You might want to give wdm (in the ports) a try. It allows you to select your login environment, but it doesn't have the nifty pictures to click so your family memebers are still going to have to type their login and password. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

Right now, the AMD Athlon's FSB to the chipset is 200Mhz (or 100Mhz DDR), but the memory bus is still 100/133Mhz (depending if you are using the original AMD 75x chipset or the VIA chipset). So you are still somewhat running at 100/133Mhz. Also, not all Pentium III processors run at 133Mhz. Some still run at 100Mhz (but those are fading out). The Pentium III Xeons without the standard Coppermine 256K L2 cache (which is replaced with 512K, 1MB or 2MB of either in-package or external L2 cache) runs at 100Mhz FSB. When the new DDR SDRAM chipsets come out for the AMD Athlon, then the CPU FSB and the memory FSB will run at 100Mhz DDR (or 200Mhz). The Tualatin (the next generation Pentium III at 0.13-micron) will probably run on a 200Mhz FSB (don't know if it's 100Mhz DDR or straight 200Mhz). // Linh Pham // http://closedsrc.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 10:33:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wireco.net (mental.wireco.net [206.107.119.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 76B1737BD89 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:33:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hornback@wireco.net) Received: (qmail 28266 invoked from network); 14 Aug 2000 17:33:12 -0000 Received: from d23.johnson-city.tn.us.wireco.net (HELO challenger) (206.107.119.212) by mental.wireco.net with SMTP; 14 Aug 2000 17:33:12 -0000 Reply-To: From: "Andrew C.

What that means is that you won't be able to install it on your machine. I personally wish that FreeBSD DID support MCA, since I've got a stack of PS/2 Model 80s sitting in my shop right now, with nothing to do. --- Andy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 10:33:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-in-02.piro.net (mail-out-01.piro.net [194.64.31.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 28C2737BD89 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:33:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com) Received: from nil.science-factory.com (ScienceFactory-atm1-153.piro.net [195.135.137.205]) by mail-in-02.piro.net (8.9.3/8.9.3/PN-991208) with ESMTP id TAA13645; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 19:33:37 +0200 Received: by nil.science-factory.com (Postfix, from userid 501) id 3A6E62136; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 19:31:51 +0200 (CEST) From: Marc van Woerkom To: mark.rowlands@minmail.net Cc: marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com, christian@jacken.net, questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <00081418224200.05631@marbsd.tninet.se> (message from Mark Rowlands on Mon, 14 Aug 2000 18:09:05 +0200) Subject: Re: How safe is FreeBSD?

You're right, administration is very important. The OS is only one component of the system.

This helps if you have a standard installation in addition to the other ones. To create your own local packages, just follow the example of the others: create a subdirectory "local" split(1) your tgz archive into local.aa, local.ab, local.ac, etc... You can also include a local.mtree and local.inf, if you like. The archive is extracted into "/". -Paul.

Basically, you add "vfs.usermount=1" to /etc/sysctl.conf (creating it if you need to), chmod the cd devices to mode 660, put the users you want to be able to mount things in group operator (which owns the CD devices by default; fix that or use the group that owns them instead if this isn't the case), then reboot the system. Users in group operator can then mount cds on directories *they* own. > ps2.: I wanted to avoid to make a suid script to do this ... Suid scripts are a very bad idea, so that's a good thing to avoid. If the above doesn't work, make it a C program instead of a script. ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:18:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jhb@pike.osd.bsdi.com) Received: (from jhb@localhost) by pike.osd.bsdi.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA05234; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:18:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jhb) From: John Baldwin Message-Id: <200008141818.LAA05234@pike.osd.bsdi.com> Subject: Re: Strip BSD bootsector to DOS file In-Reply-To: <000001c005b0$75d721b0$0201a8c0@super8> from Wilsons at "Aug 13, 2000 11:28:20 pm" To: Wilsons Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:18:29 -0700 (PDT) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.org X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL68 (25)] 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 Wilsons wrote: [Charset iso-8859-1 unsupported, filtering to ASCII...] > Hello, > > I just purchased and installed FreeBSD 4.0 on my system.
