I backed up all my Linux filesystems to DAT using tar. The backups took about 3 hours. After changing to FreeBSD, I read the tape archives back to disk. However, it took nearly 2 days to read the tape. The dd command seems to indicate to me that I am transfering data at around 15k/sec. This seems horribly slow. My configuration is: Tekram DC-390U SCSI controller (ncr0 controller in kernel) Aiwa GD-8000 DDS-2 DAT drive (kernel indicates 10 MB/s transfers) Any suggestions for improved performance?

I have considered this. Guess I'm just not certain it will wind up being much/any easier than just reinstalling. The second partition is a bit larger than the first so it seems that using dd to copy the first to the second would work. I'm just afraid that I would then have other configuration issues to deal with due to the partition size differences.

Perhaps this depends on your definition of dual channel. There is an "Ultra 2 segment" and a separate "Ultra segment" (see: http://www.adaptec.com/products/datasheets/specs/aha2940u2w.html ) which map to a single LUN. I suspect it has something to do with the kernel since the system sees both devices and boots correctly up to some point just before the login prompt, when it gets the bus timeout/reset errors.

F3 FreeBSD, I could go into WindowsNT with F1, but when ever I tried to get into FreeBSD it would just make a system beep. I thought maybe it was a bad install, so I re-installed FreeBSD again. Same thing again, I did a fdisk /mbr , lost all my WinNT files, ehhe , dang windows NT couldn't even recover the partitions that were on the drives, erg thats MS for yeh. 1. But my question is when I install again ( 6 GB partition at the end of the drive) which boot manager should I install? I installed regular(first choice) boot manager last time, that one didn't work, just gave beeps when I tried to get into FreeBSD. 2. Also how would I get rid of the FreeBSD boot manager without clearing all MBR? So that I can at least boot into another operating system.

It took long enough tho, that the prospect of buildworld on a '486 didn't seem appealing. So I figured I could just do the installworld over NFS. I mounted /usr/src and /usr/obj from the PII to the '486, and ran 'make installworld'. Unfortunately, this fails on bin/rmail, claiming bin/rmail doesn't exist. I did a 'find / -name rmail' on both machines, and both machines appear to have the same revelant bin/rmail directories, namely, /usr/src/bin/rmail and /bin/rmail.

I'm using a 3C905B (/dev/xl0) ethernet adapter. It sounds like you're not picking up a default route via DHCP. Do a 'netstat -rn' and see whether there's a default route already set (maybe you've defined something in /etc/rc.conf) If there is already a default route dhclient will not be able to set the one that your dhcp server is giving you. As root try: # route delete default # killall dhclient # dhclient This should get you up and running.

You don't need to download much. [That *is* the meaning of "dl", right? Please correct me if I'm wrong, and if it's not that a great pain for you try writing the words in their entirety.] If you want to install FreeBSD, you don't have to download much over the net. You can buy a CD set from Walnut Creek for $40 and have the entire release and all the ports in 4 nicely packaged CDs. On the other hand, if you want to install over the Net, here's what I did during my last clean installation of FreeBSD -- only this Friday night, it might help you get started. I got the two installation disks described in the handbook (by the way, you can find the handbook at ). Then ftp-installed the basic system and had myself running with a fairly recent snapshot in a tiny bit less than three hours. The system sources and the ports came later with cvsup, after I read the relevant section in the handbook, which I installed from FTP during the system's initial package selection. "Staying stable with FreeBSD" is the section of the handbook you are (or, at least, should be) interested in to make this work for you. > since im using a dial up and it would take a week.....so what folder > do i need to copy? or what should i copy to have a full version with > all the extras..... thanks I am behind a 28.8 dialup connection. What I described above was done through my dialup account to a Greek ISP. If mentioning the words "Greek" and "ISP" is not scary enough, I can back my words up with traceroutes, and other data. What this means is that you are not the only one using a dialup connection to update and/or install a FreeBSD system. Try it out, you'll probably find it amusing after a while. > Oh, and one last thing. You don't have to start swearing to get results from this list. In fact, if you write in such an inflamatory tone, you're very likely to end up with a folder burning hot with flames. A lot of nice and knowledgable people are on this list too.

I have been wondering whether there is any good reason why the message catalogs do not obey LC_ALL when there is no LANG or LC_MESSAGES set. Shouldn't LC_ALL be a catch all variable that sets a default for any category which is not explicitly set using the one of other LC_* variables? On the other hand it seems rather odd to me to make catopen() actually depend on the NL_CAT_LOCALE flag and exclude one or the other of LC_MESSAGES or LANG completely. As far as I know these variables were never intended to serve the same purpose, but LANG served as a sort of "catch all" when the LC_* variables did not exist yet. From my point of view the OSF/1 interpretation was entirely correct, because they decided that the logic should be roughly this... locale = getenv ("LC_MESSAGES"); /* or any other LC_* */ if (locale) goto Locale_OK; locale = getenv ("LANG"); if (locale) goto Locale_OK; locale = getenv ("LC_ALL"); if (! locale) locale = "C"; Locale_OK: . . . I see no problem with this interpretation. There would be two sort of "catch all" environment variables, but that would only be very nice backward compatibility. In my opinion it is quite enough compatibility with XPG4 to have NL_CAT_LOCALE defined as 0 in the header file as it is in my implementation. In fact my own implementation of the message catalogs has been made using libdb in b-tree mode, and based on that experiment there is much better use for the flags argument serving as the mode & flags for the DB file. ;-) Cheers, // jau .--- ..- -.- -.- .- .- .-.-.- ..- -.- -.- --- -. . -. / Jukka A.

Do you want MS-DOS-style slices on it? Do you want to partiton it at all? Assuming it will be a dangerously dedicated disk with one partition and the disk has been used before, this should be the minimum to put a filesystem on it, # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rda0 count=32 # disklabel -w -r da0 auto # disklabel -e -r da0 At this point, you get an interactive session with your favorite editor.

I can't figure out how to get my printer working. I'm trying to access a HP DeskJet 895 cxi on a Win95 box. I've installed Samba, LPRng, GhostScript, you-name-it. I've read until I've gone cross-eyed and still can't get the danged thing to work! Let me clarify that, I can print text files. Only problem with that is I have to manually eject the last page of the file. This at least indicates I am communicating with the printer. What I'd really like to get working is Postscript file conversion. If anyone has a similar setup working please get in touch with me and give me a few pointers. Apparently I'm not bright enough to figure this out on my own. Thanks in advance. -- Walter in·tel·lec·tu·al n. Someone who has been educated past his/her level of intelligence.

If you want to stay with 2.2.x, you'll need to build dhcp from source and try again. As for upgrading to 3.x, this is your call. If you're happy with your system, then leave it be. Though I would reccomend that you move up to 2.2.8-STABLE and update your ports collection before re-trying dhcp. -Troy > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of john chatelle > Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2000 15:32 > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Installing DHCP on FreeBSD 2.2.5 > > > > When I run 'dhclient ed2'on the command line > I get the 'ELF error' listed: > > Bash$ /usr/local/sbin/dhclient ed2 > ELF interpreter /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not found > Abort trap > > I ran the upgrade package for FreeBSD 2.2.5 and > got the same error. > Is there a package/port I need to load for this > missing file? > > Also, are there now larger differences between > the *old* FreeBSD and the LINUXes?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I want anonymous ftp users to have a umask of 551 so any files uploaded to "incoming" can't be downloaded except by a normal user with a real password.

As I reported before, one of my two logging machines has just the defaults in newsyslog.conf, and the problem occurs on both of them. Over the past few days I've upgraded to -STABLE and it still happens. Maybe I can stop it happening by playing with newsyslog.conf, telling it to kill syslogd stone dead and restart (the only way that fixes this problem) instead of using SIGHUP (the default, always worked before). The silence so far seems to indicate that (please correct if wrong) - on 3.3-RELEASE, 3.4-STABLE, and probably earlier versions too - if (and only if?) the machine receives logs from other machines - and including instances of machines using the default config files Occasionally syslogd will stop writing log entries to the logs, but will still write the "log rotated" note each day. This failure seems to occur, if at all, at a time when newsyslog is rotating the logs, and once it has happened it continues to malfunction without ever any complaint. NO SIGHUP will restore syslogd which is quite alive and apparently healthy, only a total kill and restart will set it right. If the above is what's happening, either the default newsyslog.conf needs tweaking, or a warning needs to be put in some docco or config, or there is some problem with one of the programs that needs looking into. Operator error seems most likely, but what? where? how? This thread and others like it over the past couple of years haven't come up with a complete explanation or a solution as far as I can see. I'm about to investigate logging to a different OS, abandoning this thread too. So how about this: Is there anyone running a logging machine on a pretty vanilla setup who has NOT ever had this problem? === I wrote the above a couple of weeks ago, postponed it and forgot about it. Today a workmate reported the same thing, syslog stops logging, on a fairly vanilla FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE system, with unaltered newsyslog.conf. This one is different, though. Unlike the others who have reported trouble, his machine does not and never has been used to receive logs from other machines. (Yes, his machine's date is set to tomorrow) [ end of ls -lart ] -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 2694 Jan 30 02:03 dmesg.today -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 1175 Jan 30 17:00 maillog.1.gz -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 3984 Jan 31 17:00 maillog.0.gz -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 58 Jan 31 21:00 messages -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 11076 Jan 31 21:00 messages.0.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2550 Jan 31 22:05 wtmp.Jan.gz -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 15373 Feb 1 02:03 setuid.today drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 1024 Feb 1 05:30 . -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3612708 Feb 1 09:29 apache_error_log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 455771 Feb 1 09:29 apache_ssl_engine_log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 127370 Feb 1 09:29 apache_ssl_request_log -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 9071 Feb 1 13:43 maillog -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4261440 Feb 1 13:45 apache_access_log -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 28112 Feb 1 13:46 lastlog -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 352 Feb 1 13:46 wtmp -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 616 Feb 1 13:54 sendmail.st bash-2.03# cat /var/log/messages Jan 31 21:00:00 naan newsyslog[9050]: logfile turned over bash-2.03# date Tue Feb 1 13:58:28 EST 2000 bash-2.03# uname -a FreeBSD naan.comcen.com.au 3.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE #0: Thu Sep 16 +23:40:35 GMT 1999 jkh@highwing.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 It seems that people who collect logs from several other machines don't suffer fro this more often, they just notice the problem and scream louder.

My two biggest problems are that 1)I'm a bit of a newbie 2)I'm stuck in single user only mode and cannot mount the partition To make things worse, I have cannot start the OS in multi user mode. My primary drive (Quantum Fireball 3.2GB) has all the system files and checks out fine from fsck. The bad WD disk only has a www directory. I have tried removing the WD disk and restarting, but fsck still complains and will not start. My goal is to edit fstab to remove the entries pointing the the bad WD disk, but I can't find a way to do it. Any suggestions?

I then did a search for httpd and apache and proceeded to try to run nearly every response, but with no luck. The version of apache is whatever is on the ftp.freebsd.org ports directory, so I assume it is the latest or one of the latest versions. I installed it taking all the defaults, made no changes except a couple to the httpd.conf file for my own network information. There is no man pages for apache and the man httpd didn't help either.

Have you tried that? Second - how do you know that httpd isn't running? Third - what port are you trying to run apache on? I _think_ that if you're running on a port < 1024 you'll need to start apache as root. Are you? Finally - is the apache from the ports collection? My experience with ports is that they'll generally start/run/work without any additional configuration.

I've been using SuSE linux for 3 years now, and i thought that now is a good time to go to the next level so to speak. Now i know very little about freebsd so if you could just maybe point out the diffrences between FreeBSD and linux. One notable question is what filesystem does it work and what kind of microkernel does it use. ie Mach comes to mind. i'm not sure though. Also how compaible is it with linux and how does the kernel compiling works. Is it the same as linux or not. also where can i get freebsd, = not download, on CD the cheaper the better. And how much does it go for ? Thanks.

I assume this firewall allows http, but not ftp, proxy services. Sorry, I should have quoted more of his message.

Ok, did this, and ... One more time I get, /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: ./CGServer: Undefined symbol "pthread_attr_setscope" when I try to run the program. So a little more digging through the list archives and I find this, "we already have threading support (minus pthread cancel) compile/link with gcc -pthread" So a little digging through the man pages for cc (ie. gcc) gets me this, "-pthread Link a user-threaded process against libc_r instead of libc. Objects linked into user-threaded process- es should be compiled with -D_THREAD_SAFE." So, go back and "make depend" and "make" and peruse the screen output and I see several different options added to cc which brings me to the next question. How do I add the -pthread option when I'm making the kernel? I've dug through the Makefiles and I can't figure out how to do this.

While apachectl is a great script for testing your apache configuration, the one thing that it won't check for is if the log files can be created. If, for example, you have: TransferLog /usr/local/www/server/logs/access_log but /usr/local/www/server/logs/ doesn't exist, it will tell you that the syntax is ok, but it won't be able start apache, and the error log (if it can be created) isn't much help either. Make sure the paths leading up to all of your log files exists.

Services are all the classical internet services: email, web, ftp, proxy, dns, ldap, mysql and so on. Because i'm involved in the task, i'm searching for the best hardware platform that can supply the same services with the same overall speed. I'm oriented to buy Dell or Compaq (Intel) servers (one or more), but i have several questions about: - SMP: planning to run FreeBSD 3.4, on a Dell or a Compaq server, can i suppose to run SMP in a reliable manner? - RAID: apart from DPT, there are other RAID solutions? i know that Compaq sell several RAID solutions supported by FreeBSD. It's true? - software RAID: can i think vinum as a reliable solution?

Others in the organisation have sneaked them into my regret. The reason? _Nothing_ is off the peg with Compaq. Everything, it seems, needs special drivers if not special Compaq hardware which costs three times as much as off the shelf stuff from reliable manufacturers. And I have a constant performance problem with the few machines we own. The funny thing is the people who were so keen to get them in the first place are unable to configure them. I found one of them displaying 16 colours, sound card unconfigured and running like a one-legged dog in syrup. It was being used as a workstation by our CEO. I've managed to fix the first two - special drivers from Compaq's home site, of course: standard ATI and ESS drivers were no use - and I'll be trying to fix the latter this week. Maybe I'll replace it - a 450 Mhz PII - with an old 50 Mhz 486 I've got lying about... On the other hand, the Dell I have as my principal machine at home gives me no problems and first class performance - although I am a bit surprised that they make use of cable-select for hard drive control.

You'd have to get the boot disk images (kern.flp and mfsroot.flp) from e.g. ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/4.0-20000127-CURRENT/floppies/ (Sorry, I don't know if there's an australian server with snapshots of FreeBSD-current). Since you don't have experience with FreeBSD, I'd suggest you don"t install -current, though. :-) In the main menu of the installation program, go to "options" and enter 3.4-RELEASE in the field for the release to install.

Well, my plan is to start playing with ports soonishly. I come from a background of Linux, mostly Debian. I'm looking at possible options for a gateway - it currently runs Debian, but it's limiting throughput to ~3.3k/s. I think it's the hardware though, so the poor old 386 might have to get thrown into a corner. Any ideas on that? (Yes, the 386 uses 16550A UARTs.) > If the download per proxy doesn't work, please let me know. Will do. =] Thanks for the responses, everyone, by the way. Walls have ears around here. -- damian PS.

I'd recommend the following, o Carefully select and purchase Dell machines. Buy one and do extensive testing on it before committing to a larger order. Search the archives for "Dell" to find recommendations. I've got a Dell Precision 410 with 2x600 MHz P-IIIs that runs extremely well. o Buy uniprocessor boxes unless your testing from the first step shows a measurable increase in performance with SMP. o Don't go for an on-board RAID controller. Use an external RAID array (a box of disks with a front-panel for controlling the array) with a SCSI interface instead. Use multiple controllers and multiple arrays for speed. o Choose your Ethernet cards carefully. The Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B or Pro/100+ are recommended as having the highest throughput for the lowest overhead. o Load 'em up with RAM. PC RAM is cheap compared to Sun RAM. :^) Charles -----Original Message----- From: Lorenzo Cavassa [mailto:Lorenzo.Cavassa@ALPcom.IT] Sent: Monday, January 31, 2000 4:17 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Dell or Compaq Hi, i've an hard to resolve problem: my organization needs to port all the services running on a Sun Enterprise 4500 (8 cpu, 1GB ram, Solaris 2.6) on one or more server running FreeBSD. Services are all the classical internet services: email, web, ftp, proxy, dns, ldap, mysql and so on. Because i'm involved in the task, i'm searching for the best hardware platform that can supply the same services with the same overall speed. I'm oriented to buy Dell or Compaq (Intel) servers (one or more), but i have several questions about: - SMP: planning to run FreeBSD 3.4, on a Dell or a Compaq server, can i suppose to run SMP in a reliable manner? - RAID: apart from DPT, there are other RAID solutions? i know that Compaq sell several RAID solutions supported by FreeBSD. It's true? - software RAID: can i think vinum as a reliable solution?

PHB bought a Proliant 1600 a year or so back and the thing ran probably less than 500 hrs before the power supply went south. And of course it was non standard part so I couldn't run down to my local wholesaler and grab a new one for $25. Rather instead we got one for free under warranty; 3 weeks later (maybe 4). Compaq was out of stock, because as they were having to replace them faster than their supplier could manufacture them. Oh yeah, had it not been covered by warranty; $200. I could go on, but you get my drift. Between the two, I'd pick the Dell, hands down. But what I actually prefer is building my own. It's not rocket science. Don't save any money really, but then I know exactly what's inside. Email me privately if you want some more advice along these lines.

(either that, or bootable CD's have only been mentioned a couple of times, and the most recent being October '98?). We've just got our 3.4 CD's, and our trust LPR netservers refuse to boot them... They look at the disk during POST, and then ignore it and continue to boot from the hard drive / floppy drive etc. I've checked the BIOS - and it says CD, followed by floppy, followed by 'flexible' disk. Putting a 3.3 CD in the same machine, and resetting it - shows it boots the 3.3 CD fine... Any one else noticed this? (And I am putting the CD in nice and early, and it is the right 'bootable' disk, i.e. #1 ) -Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 31 9:17:21 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wondermutt.net (host75-157.student.udel.edu [128.175.75.157]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 69A4814D9F for ; Mon, 31 Jan 2000 09:17:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from papalia@udel.edu) Received: from morgaine (morgaine.wondermutt.net [192.168.1.2]) by wondermutt.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id MAA34094; Mon, 31 Jan 2000 12:17:52 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from papalia@udel.edu) Message-Id: <4.1.20000131120328.009749c0@mail.udel.edu> X-Sender: papalia@mail.udel.edu X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2000 12:14:11 -0500 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: John Subject: NATD/Divert broken ? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey all, I'm having a small problem with my NATD and my firewall. Per the instructions in "The Complete FreeBSD", I added the firewall rule: divert natd ip from any to any via fxp1 The problem is that this rule is causing partial problems on my loopback device (lo0). What happens is that with the rule in place, for some connections within the box (which definitely go thru lo0), the connections fail. If I remove that rule, then the connections within the box can be made, but then I lose all ability to host my internal 192.168. net. I have done tcpdumps of both the successful and unsuccessful connections and have pasted them below. If the actual tcpdump files would be useful, I can attach those to a subsequent email. Also, I'm currently running 3.3 and am suffering from NO other apparent problems with lo0 that I can tell. tcpdumps are below.

However, it seems that the card sockets are not being detected with an IRQ, even if we force it (with "machdep" statements, and assigning them in the kernel config). I've recieved lots of help from a person on the freebsd-mobile list but we're still not much further. He mentioned that he was sure he knew of some people using CURRENT on 7000's. I'm looking for anyone who has this laptop and uses ANY version of FBSD, and if it's possible, some details on how you got the card sockets to detect properly. The 7000's use a TI-1220 Cardbus contoller wiht a Carbus/ISA bridge (like most do), so anyone using that particular contoller might be able to help us also. We don't mind which version we install, we've tried STABLE and CURRENT without much sucess thus far.
