Sometimes things work fine, othertimes the keyboard just dies. Presumably this is because some part of the kernel is getting confused by the sharing of IO addresses; it seems totally nondeterministic. I've just upgraded to the 021095 SNAP and haven't seen this problem yet, but I've only been running for a day or so (have seen other problems though, like corrupted filesystems -- hopefully that's just cruft happening from the library/binary switch...) For what its worth, NetBSD 1.0 exhibited difficulty dealing with PS/2 mice in X-Windows, in a different way; keyboard response became sluggish when using a PS/2 mouse kernel. Go figure.

There is a bug where you (occationally) get lines through the screen when it pans the virtual display, but they go away when you pan in the opposite direction. All in all it works well. Not sure how fast it is compared to other boards, but sliding xterms etc. around is completely painless. I never see editors redraw - (including xemacs). If you try this be sure to get the server that is patched to use this board, the older S3 servers don't recognize the chip it uses.

I just installed 2.0R last night, and it works great using the additions to /etc/netstart *'d below. The link gets started correctly on reboot, and it redails if the link is lost w/out any intervention. Note, slattach needs to happen before the ifconfig line (at least it was required in 1.1.5) I'm actually very pleased with the way this works, and when I switch to PPP most of this stuff will go with. >From /etc/netstart: -----------------/etc/netstart-------------- #!/bin/sh - # # $Id: netstart,v 1.17 1994/11/07 04:02:25 phk Exp $ # From: @(#)netstart 5.9 (Berkeley) 3/30/91 # This is the slip-host as well (*)defaultrouter=`cat /etc/defaultrouter` ...

However, the man pages are not a suitable way to learn UNIX. You need a tutorial. I've got a good start on "UNIX Unleashed" by Sams Publishing 1994, ISBN 0-672-30402-3 and so far it's very good. I chose it because it has tutorials for both the user and the system administrator. I am discovering that learning UNIX is a serious undertaking and that I will need to be patient and persistant to do so. However, so far it's not difficult if I take it a little at a time. If you can't access the man pages just by issuing the man command, then your installation of them is incomplete. My recent install from CD-ROM did this for me automatically, a good thing because I wouldn't have known how to do it manually. (Maybe the readme and install files would have helped. Did you get these with the files you FTPed?) I hope someone more knowledgeable will help you if needed.

I know that the computer center's uses 3c509s not 3c609Bs, which should work fine with this flag. The flag, BTW, tells the adaptor to use the 10base-T port.

How can I go > about getting a copy to load on my PC at home? If you have an Internet connection with a SLIP link, you can simply search the next server that has the FreeBSD files on it. Look into the "2.0-RELEASE" directory on that server and download and read the "INSTALL", "RELNOTES" and "README" documents. These should explain how you can proceed and what you need to be doing to use FreeBSD. If you are not internet connected, try to get the documents also over ftpmail for some other mechanism( internet connected friend) and read them and if you like it and have a CDROM, buy one of the CDROM's that contain FreeBSD. There are several's out that has them. Otherwise you need to get many floppies and load it on floppies and transport them to your home and load it with floppies.

Things have gone just fine up through loading the CPIO and rebooting from the hard disk, but when it comes to the point about communicating with the modem, we are stuck. Cu does not succeed, and we can't find any special instructions in the INSTALL file. When he presses ESC at that point in the dialog box, there's an error message that disappears too fast to read (almost) and then it flips back to the installation procedure and goes on as if nothing went wrong. The error is not recorded in the other virtual terminal. Somehow, by multiple attempts, perhaps, Matt found the error to be: lock open: No such file or directory all ports busy We did check to see that /dev/cuaa1 got created, which it did, and it looks correct. Hints/helps/whatever appreciated. Thanks!

Before it recognized the sound card as a Yamaha FM something, and I would always get the PCM 0 device not installed error. Then I tried some of the things I found in the mail archives (I know this is terrible vague I'll try to get the kernel configuration tomorrow) and it recognized the card as a SoundBlaster v3.01. Now when I try to cat things to /dev/audio and so forth I just get nothing from the speaker and the process seems to just hang. So my question, what does it take to get the soundcard configured right? I've got all the default sb pro settings dma channel 1, irq 7, io addres 0x220.

I bought the FreeBSD 2.0 CDROM from Walnut Creek, and installed it via the instructions provided in the "INSTALL" file. I finished the first phase of the install alright. I got to the "End of initial installation" menu. I then got to the "Please specify a distribution to load" menu. I chose "bindist". Then chose to load it from a "CDROM". I chose a "MITSUMI" CDROM. Then I got the error message: Unable to mount /dev/mcd0a on /mnt. Some additional information: I have a Mitsumi CDROM connected to a SoundBlaster MCD (Multi CD) sound card. Also, The boot screen (console) has the following messages: mcd0: timeout getting status mcd0 not found at 0x300 mcd1: Version information is 10 D 2 mcd1: Adjusted for newer drive model mcd1: type Mitsumi FX001D mcd1 at 0x340-0x343 irq 11 on isa Is there any way to tell FreeBSD to look for the CDROM drive at 0x340 instead of 0x300? Is there anything else I need to do? Thank you for any information you can provide me!

The Makefiles under ports/... contains descriptors for the original sources on the net.

Then, follow the chain back to ip_output() and in_broadcastaddr() if these are wrong. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.

You should never set the clean flag on a mounted filesystem...for that matter, you should never run fsck on a mounted filesystem without the -n (nowrite) flag. If fsck does write to the mounted filesystem, it can destroy data and/or cause the machine to panic because of the corruption it causes. There is no synchronization between the changes that fsck makes and the changes the kernel makes. -DG From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 14 03:11:13 1995 Return-Path: questions-owner Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) id DAA17959 for questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 03:11:13 -0800 Received: from aero.org (aero.org [130.221.16.2]) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) with ESMTP id DAA17950 for ; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 03:11:10 -0800 Received: from antares.aero.org ([130.221.192.46]) by aero.org with SMTP id <111116-2>; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 03:10:33 -0800 Received: from anpiel.aero.org by antares.aero.org (4.1/AMS-1.0) id AA19157 for questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 14 Feb 95 03:10:18 PST To: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Funny business installing XFree86 from FreeBSD CD-ROM Date: Tue, 14 Feb 1995 03:10:16 -0800 From: "Mike O'Brien" Message-Id: <95Feb14.031033pst.111116-2@aero.org> Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I just successfully installed FreeBSD 2.0 from the Walnut Creek CD-ROM. At least, it was successful up until I tried to install XFree86 3.1, and after checksumming the files, it (apparently) hung on me. I've had considerable experience with BSD UNIX up through 4.3, but all this install stuff is quite new to me, so I had to crash around considerably before figuring out how to run the XFree86 install script by hand from the XFree86 directory on the CD-ROM. After it was all over, of course, I had a dim memory of hearing that the install script dialog page comes up on the next console virtual terminal over. So, after all that, I have a question, for my own enlightenment: what is it that causes the script to come up on what is, after all, a completely different terminal? It sure doesn't do that when I run it by hand. I've seen a few other cases where I was interacting on VT0, and had messages come out on VT1. What mechanism is operating here? VT0 is the 'console' terminal, right?

I don't have access to the 1.1 sources in the moment, but i doubt they were different for this. I find it also only described in "older" releases of SUNOS 4.1.x. It is no longer mentioned in the Solaris 2.3 manpage, although the header file contain it also. So the best would be to rewrite the software to don't use that feature. I suspect other operating systems also don't have it.

I can establish the connection and get the local and remote IP addresses just fine. I can even telnet and FTP to remote sites, and the nameserver and gateway work just fine. However, after 1-2 minutes, the system just reboots! No warning whatsoever, I'm just dumped out of FreeBSD. I have recompiled the kernel with the GATEWAY option and the ppp pseudo-device, and my modem is a Digicom 14.4+. Is this a "known" problem with 2.0R, and if so, how do I fix it? If it's fixed in -current or one of the snapshots, how do I just fix ppp without "upgrading" the whole system (I'm really conservative about these things....). Thanks for the help!

However, ups has been ported and the port includes all the diffs to stock gdb-4.13 to support ups and FreeBSD. What's missing is support for kernel debugging and attach/detach, but what the hey. There's a copy of the port on wcarchive as /incoming/FreeBSD/ups-port.tgz. I actually compiled it and it worked quite well, although I personally consider tgdb to be superior.

Please tell me how > to do that. This probably should have been sent to the NetBSD questions list instead of the FreeBSD questions list. Assuming the serail drivers aren't too different, you probably have DCD forced true in your modem and you need to reconfigure it. You also might have DCD forced true in the cable. The other possiblity is that you do not have modem control turned on on the device. You will need to consult the NetBSD sio man page on how to deal with this in NetBSD. In a correctly operating setup, the DCD on the modem follows remote carrier so that the modem will not assert DCD on the serial interface unless carrier is present. A modem-control device is used so that the system does not ignore the DCD being asserted by the serial interface. The default behaviour for a modem control device is to default with -CLOCAL and HUPCL set on the device. If you can log in, make sure these are present (type 'stty -a') after dialing in and logging in). When DCD drops, SIGHUP is sent to all members of the process group, which causes them to exit. The last close on the port drops DTR. The modem must be set to reset when DTR drops from the computer. Then the getty comes back up and trys an open, which asserts DTR which allows the modem to answer the phone.

If i remember correctly you simply "touch quota.user" in root directory of the partition. Then add the "userquota" or "groupquota" in your /etc/fstab to the flags. And after a remount of the filesystem run a "quotacheck -v -a" on it. After that the quota.user or quota.group file has valid entries. And now you can manipulate the entries with "edquota". Read all the manual pages about these commands, how they are used exactly :-). Example: my /usr2 file system contains quota, so my /etc/fstab entry is: /dev/sd1a /usr2 ufs rw,userquota 1 3 and /usr2 has a /usr2/quota.user. To manipulate my own quota entry i use a "edquota ats" and land in an editor and can manipulte my quota as a super-user :-). One Word of Warning: you should only enable one filesystem with quotas on FreeBSD 2.0. Many people have reported problems with two or three filesystems and quotas enabled.

Please tell me how to do that. We are the mailing list for FreeBSD, not NetBSD :-). If i understand your question correctly, you are asking how to kill all processes on the logout of a user ? There is no clean way, a user can always intentionally decide to run a process and then logging out. IF you really want to kill all of, you need to write your own script, that checks periodically if there are leftover processes that have no longer a login tty. "ps" and "grep" and a little bit shell programming are a good start for that.

This seems to be related to kernel initiated file I/O to the quota file being handled in a rather (unexpected) way. I think it would help to slightly modify the in core super block and keep the quota file as a real rather than a virtual open instance. I also think making the file largers so that a quota record won't cause it to expand would work around the problem for now.

The first looks like a possible compiler bug. The second is just a warning, but it too may indicate a compiler problem. Initially, I was getting the following error form g++: > /usr/include/stdio.h:338: warning: declaration of `_p' shadows a > member of `this' It seems that g++ gets confused and cannot distinguish the _p argument from the _p member of the FILE struct (see diff below and /usr/include/stdio.h). By renaming _p to _fp, I got rid of the problem. Can anyone indicate whether this problem still exists with g++ 2.6.3? If so, should we fix the FreeBSD stdio.h to avoid this problem? I am willing to write up a bug report for the gcc/g++ developers if necessary. ---begin-diff------------ nachos@lorax> diff -c stdio.h.orig stdio.h *** stdio.h.orig Tue Nov 22 06:38:43 1994 --- stdio.h Tue Feb 14 21:51:17 1995 *************** *** 335,345 **** */ #define __sgetc(p) (--(p)->_r < 0 ? __srget(p) : (int)(*(p)->_p++)) #if defined(__GNUC__) && defined(__STDC__) ! static __inline int __sputc(int _c, FILE *_p) { ! if (--_p->_w >= 0 || (_p->_w >= _p->_lbfsize && (char)_c != '\n')) ! return (*_p->_p++ = _c); else ! return (__swbuf(_c, _p)); } #else /* --- 335,345 ---- */ #define __sgetc(p) (--(p)->_r < 0 ? __srget(p) : (int)(*(p)->_p++)) #if defined(__GNUC__) && defined(__STDC__) ! static __inline int __sputc(int _c, FILE *_fp) { ! if (--_fp->_w >= 0 || (_fp->_w >= _fp->_lbfsize && (char)_c != '\n')) ! return (*_fp->_p++ = _c); else ! return (__swbuf(_c, _fp)); } #else /* ---end-diff--------- Second, I get a number of seemingly bogus warnings from /usr/include/signal.h: > /usr/include/signal.h:52: warning: `int sigaction(int, const struct > sigaction *, struct sigaction *)' hides constructor for `struct sigaction' After looking at the headers, I can see why g++ complains (and gcc doesn't), but something tells me that it should not complain in this case, because it is a system provided header about which joe-user can do nothing.

Great! Now, I have already moved onto the 2.1.0-Development, (the second feb snapshot) soley because of our SCSI controller. Hardware in use: Intel P90 with 32MB RAM 522MB IDE boot disk with PCI 32-data path D-Link 220 Ethernet Card ISA Adaptec 2940 PCI SCSI card 2.1GB SCSI-2 disk There seems to be an intermittent problem on boot-up. A high proportion of boots, say, 4 out of 5, result in the system hanging after it finds the pci hardware and scsi controller, and says "Waiting for SCSI devices to settle" after 5 secs or so the Adaptec controller light stays permanently on, which I am told is a bad sign. The system hangs like that indefinitely, (well I waited 30 mins anyway:-). Yet, sometimes, it boots ok and there is only a 2-3 sec gap after the Waiting For message; the drive is found as sd0 and the splendour of FreeBSD awaits usage. What could this be down to? Remote reboots are a distinct possibilty :-) and having to repeatedly power-cycle the machine for a "good" boot is not something that we can do remotely yet. As an aside we want to use this machine as a USENET machine running INN, anyone with any experience of this? I know the port exists but anyone using it in anger? I could not get the 1st Feb Snapshot to work at all with the scsi disk.

This only works with two or three Models of SCSI CDROM drives. And we don't have the code for that in the tree. Most CD-ROM's doesn't allow you to read music CD as raw data from the CD. I think it was done to prevent people from copying music CD's :-). So your only chance is to pull the plug out of your Soundblaster card and plug it into the CDROM.

They do a lot with distributed object computing, for instance. If someone is serious about porting an OS to their platform, it is just anouther number the can put into their marketing brochures. Loaning a machine is a relatively small investment for them. We have had a loaner sitter around for months, wondering what to do with it - makes a nice Xterm even if the keyboard is non-standard. As for being a nice machine, I am sure it is, but so are HP's, Suns and Pentiums. (Lotta times you could use those 64 bit ints though.) Bottom line is it doesn't hurt to ask.

For FreeBSD2.0 you can add a sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 at the end of your /etc/netstart. That allows to route the packets. The other thing is to put a default route from the other machines to the gateway machine, then you don't even need to run routed on them. So something like a "route add default 193.78.170.xx" to their /etc/netstarts. And the Gateway machines needs a "route add default 193.78.242.118" ??? i hope, or the 193.78.240.1. I always forget which address of the slip link is the correct one for that.

Stephen Assuming you are in the net 203.8.116.0 this should work: route add -net 203.8.116.40 203.8.116.4 This way, according to the netmask, your host's IP addr and 203.8.116.4 belong to the same subnet.

This sounds like a classic example of a SCSI termination problem. Quadruple-check to make sure everything that should be terminated is and that nothing that shouldn't be terminated isn't. You also might want to try: 1) bumping down the transfer rate on the scsi bus. 2) Turning off sync negotiation if it is currently enabled. Good luck. -- ...................................................................... Peter G. Berger, Esq.

However, ups has been ported and the port includes all the diffs to stock gdb-4.13 to support ups and FreeBSD. What's missing is support for kernel debugging and attach/detach, but what the hey. There's a copy of the port on wcarchive as /incoming/FreeBSD/ups-port.tgz. I actually compiled it and it worked quite well, although I personally consider tgdb to be superior. Note that I didn't do this port, I just know about it. Gary J. Hi! I did the port and posted a message a few weeks ago. I had to make a clean port of gdb-4.13 to work with ups. Since I don't have many experiences with the gdb and its internals I don't know how to add kernel debugging and the attach/detach stuff. I even don't know if this will work with the ups stuff anyway, because I don't know absolutely nothing about its internels either. -- I'm working with this ups port and its working quite stable. I've seen many questions about a port of the ups debugger (because its really nice) that I think you can live with the lacking of some features :-) volker From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 15 11:14:34 1995 Return-Path: questions-owner Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) id LAA29736 for questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 11:14:34 -0800 Received: from estienne.cs.berkeley.edu (estienne.CS.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.42.147]) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) with ESMTP id LAA29730 for ; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 11:14:28 -0800 Received: (from gibbs@localhost) by estienne.cs.berkeley.edu (8.6.9/8.6.9) id LAA18360; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 11:14:05 -0800 From: "Justin T.

Using 2.0-RELEASE, I'm trying to setup a direct serial connection between a 286 running Microport's System V/286 unix (SYSV R2), and FreeBSD. I'm using a version of the asy sio driver (the last one I could still port to the 286 architecture) on the 286 system. It uses /dev/tty0 <--> /dev/ttyM0 the same way that I think FreeBSD uses /dev/tty?? <--> /dev/cua??. Perhaps my understanding is wrong, since when I do a MAKEDEV tty04, I find that /dev/cua04 has disappeared, and when I do the MAKEDEV cua04, the /dev/tty04 disappears! On the 286 side, I've got a uugetty waiting on /dev/tty0, which allows cu to open /dev/ttyM0 as long as the port is not busy. This configuration has been used for several years, and works perfectly when I have a modem attached to the port. Likewise on the FreeBSD side, I've enabled getty on /dev/tty04 in /etc/tty, and have configured tip to use /dev/cua04. I manually mknod'ed /dev/tty04 after MAKEDEV'ing cua04. When I fire up both systems, I get the classic dualing getty problem. I've looked for a uugetty under the FreeBSD source tree to no avail. Here's my cable wiring (which works between the 286 and a UNIX PC -- another System V box -- both with active uugetty's): pin pin 1,6 DCD,DSR <--> 4 DTR 2 RxD <--> 3 TxD 3 TxD <--> 2 RxD 4 DTR <--> 1,6 DCD,DSR 5 SG <--> 5 SG 7 RTS <--> 8 CTS 8 CTS <--> 7 RTS I assume that my understanding of FreeBSD's tty/cua ports is wrong, or maybe there's some options file that I haven't found. Can someone enlighten me with the correct way to configure a direct serial connection between two unixes so that cu/tip and uucp work bi-directionally? Thanks! Dave Bodenstab ...att!uwcs!imdave PS. The following are some observations about FreeBSD after having installed it about a month ago and trying to configure it properly. I am not trying to criticize, but am trying to offer some constructive advice. I am really pleased with FreeBSD, but there are some rough edges. It sure would be great if there was a cookbook for newbies to FreeBSD. FI, I newfs'ed a new drive and mounted it under /scratch. At 2AM one night, after having loaded tons of floppies, the nightly cron job ran -- was I *pissed*! I knew about /tmp cleanup, but why make /scratch a magic name too? Also, it seem to me that many people will be in pretty much the same situation, namely, after having successfully installed FreeBSD I want to get it to do something... like print... or dial a BBS. A DOS person is used to this being relatively painless... "let's see, I've got an Epson printer and a US Robotics modem... OK. 'print'. Great! Now fire up the comm program and 'dial'..." It usually works right out of the box. The reason for this is, of course, that the most common printers/modems/etc. are already present in the configuration files and the user need only select which one to use. Certainly, there must be a descent sampling of various printers/modems/etc. in the hands of the FreeBSD developers and long-time users. Wouldn't it be fairly simple to collect the configuration files and include them *all* in the FreeBSD distribution? If only that were the case I would have only had to locate the lpd configuration file (which I did) and then select my Epson printer rather than having to dig into the actual details of configuring the printer. After all, an Epson is *really* common. The same is true for the com ports -- I still haven't figured out how to get my US Robotics modem to work with FreeBSD (but it works like a charm with DOS/windows!) I'm going to have to dig into the modem manual and figure out all that &d6&F?... stuff which I'd rather not bother with. Again, a US Robotics modem is *real* common! The configuration files should be pre-configured for the typical /dev/tty0[01] -- ie. mouse on one and modem on the other -- for both cu, tip and uucp. Anyway, thanks for letting me rave a little and let off some steam :-) From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 15 12:50:49 1995 Return-Path: questions-owner Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) id MAA03956 for questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 12:50:49 -0800 Received: from ifc.com (ifc.com [204.30.44.1]) by freefall.cdrom.com (8.6.9/8.6.6) with ESMTP id MAA03950 for ; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 12:50:47 -0800 Received: from ([204.30.44.12]) by ifc.com (8.6.8/8.6.6) with SMTP id MAA00538 for ; Wed, 15 Feb 1995 12:51:59 -0900 Date: Wed, 15 Feb 1995 12:51:59 -0900 Message-Id: <199502152151.MAA00538@ifc.com> X-Sender: wallison@ifc.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org From: wallison@ifc.com (Bill Allison) Subject: Configuring QIC-40 tape device??

Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi. I'm wondering if anyone has been experiencing the following problem with mrouted: I've been working to set up a FreeBSD 2.0 (release and subsequent snapshots) box as the end of a multicast tunnel without success. The kernels compile cleanly, and mrouted starts up fine. But when I run vat or some other conferencing program, it seems that I don't end up joining the group. Dumping mrouted's routing tables shows that while the process knows of all the routes and which groups I should be joined to, none are cached in the kernel (even while supposedly joined to a group). Has anyone else experienced behavior like this, or know of a solution? Since others have been asking about configuring vat to handle sound, they must have gotten packets to flow... The other end of the tunnel is ok, since it used to work with mrouted on our Sun. Thanks.

First of all, try hitting return when your cursor gets close to the end of the screen. If you're screen is larger than 80 chars wide, make sure you hit a return before the end so that everyone can read it. :) Second of all, you'll need to build a custom kernel that contains the PPP devices. Start with the GENERIC kernel and add a line similar to this: pseudo-device ppp 1 to your kernel config file. Build and install a new kernel and all will be well.

I haven't even tried their PC port, so I won't say what they do right or not. I would like to see some of their cross platform support integrated into FreeBSD though, and I don't think that off hand comments like these are good for the relationship between the two groups. -- Justin T.

NetBSD 1.0/i386 is rock solid, and arguably more of a "clean" release than 2.0. I've run both; I'm running FreeBSD now. NetBSD has it's own problems, the main one being an installation procedure which is not only unfriendly but actively hostile towards sharing a disk with another OS; but stability is not one of those problems. -- ......................................................................

For instance, when I hold down control and click over an xterm, when i release the restore does not happen (ie: the image of the menu remains.) Also, when I drag was using twm and clicked on the desktop, the menu appeared way away from where my mouse pointer was. Also using twm, I noticed that if I were to drag a window off of the top of the screen, the border lines would skew so that the top left corner was at (0, 0), but the bottom right remained in the correct spot (hard to explain.) Anyways, has anything changed from 2.0 -> 2.0-950210-SNAP that would/could be causing any of the above? One thing that may be causing problems is that I installed the compat1xdist off of my 2.0 CD-ROM as opposed to downloading it from the FTP site. I checked the file sizes and they were the same, so I figured they hadn't changed.

Ok, I've been set straight on the stability of NetBSD (and personally reminded to stay away from e-mail after discussing our company's future or lack thereof with my boss). Ok, why do we have two i386 BSD's then? Seems like a bit of wasted effort?

I have checked the /etc/inetd.conf and talk was #talk and ntalk was setup, but that doesn't work either. Now maybe I am looking in the wrong area, but I am at a loss. 2. My service provider has pop3 running on his machine and I don't have a clue as to how to grab the mail from him via a ppp connect. If this is generally a bad idea I would appreciate the info 3. I have ftped and installed /usr/X11R6 and only have /usr/X11R6/bin/twm as my availble manager. I pulled the olvwm package and installed it but can not run it because I get a missing libo*. I would at least like to have a different choice of managers to run. 4. I am sure there is a x web browser but I am unsure of what it is that I am trying to pull. I am trying to have a single internet solution with unix/freebsd wihout having to load a windows or os/2 program to provide a single part of the solution. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

If you want to ask about NetBSD, it's not the right place (there's a separate group of mailing lists for that), but I don't think anybody here would dispute the fact that the NetBSD effort exists as a parallel effort to FreeBSD, with slightly different goals, successes, and problems than FreeBSD (among the goals being the intent to port to tons of different platforms).

I'm trying to use FreeBSD as IP router, to internetwork LANs via ISDN WAN links. I've 3 solutions to route my traffic: 1. use PPP toward a (possibly fast) asyncronous serial port, which in turn drives an ISDN Terminal Adapter; 2. use PPP toward a V.35 syncronous port; 3. use a specialized PPP for ISDN cards (there is a RFC about that). First question: does FreeBSD already supports any of the latter two kind of boards (and which) ? Second question: where can I find hints, guidelines, and examples to write by myself the driver for such a card, driver which could be then added to the FreeBSd package?

Has anyone implemented > aioread or aiowrite for FreeBSD 2.0???? I did once back when LWP was really the way you did threads. I did an LWP, too, writing it first for Sun using Sun's aioread/write/wait/cancel. It's relatively trivial (lot of grunt work), but my code is not at all applicable to the 2.0 source base. You will to add aiowait and aiocancel as well. A useful document is available from the CS department of Washington State (wuarchive), called "User space Threads and Register Windowing on SPARC" or something like that. You will need to add a context block to the current proc for each outstanding I/O if you expect to use SIGIO; if you always use aiowait, then it's even easier.

You have the ability to connect two PPP ports at once, while I can only do one. Since I only have two serial ports, and one is the mouse it seemed silly for me to configure 2 PPP connections into my kernel. Your hardware may have two available PPP ports.

That explains it. I put in a 16550 serial card for my external 28.8 modem and left my 14.4 USR internal still plugged in. Both were configged, hence the psuedodevice 2 So, looks like I need to learn kermit and make it work (tip works now also so could use it), set up the options file and let it rip.

The standard answer for this is "Check your SCSI termination". Be sure it is terminated at both ends and no more than (I forget) devices are supplying terminator power.

Thanks. FYI there do seem to be 2 hurdles in the boot procedure. (using an Adaptec 2940) Sometimes, the hanging occurs immediately after the "settle" message. And at other times, it pauses for the 15 seconds at "settle" but then hangs after the next 2 lines: ahc0 targ 0 lun 0: type 0(direct) fixed SCSI2 ahc0 targ 0 lun 0: the same behaviour also occurs with a Micropolis 2117 1.7GB drive If the sd0 line containing the drive geometry is displayed then I know it is a successful boot. Successful boots are few and far between, but when it works, it works!

Basically it periodically (I used cron) or on-demand contacts a POP-3 server, authenticates the user info, pulls all spooled mail for the user, and splices the result onto the end of /var/mail/*user*. Then Pine, Elm, Mail, whatever, can access the messages in whatever environment the user finds most suitable. I can't remember where I found it, exactly, and archie wasn't much help; it gave me a bunch of false starts when I queried on "popclient". But, I persevered and found it. I have subsequently left the job where I worked this project, but let me know if you can't find this package; I can poke around at home and see where I saved the source deck I stashed. (The environment I developed this solution for was to permit *nix hosts to suck mail that had been sent/queued to NetWare (using SMTP!?!) to their local hosts using POP-3.

Arrk, that gets me. I do have the room but not the power to compile the libc or what. My trusted 386/4M can hardly make a package. Can somebody compile a new libc and leave it for grab?

What exactly is the problem here, beside that someone somewhere thinks that the unnamed problem is the result of sendmail? Note that there is a bad interaction because of the new resolver library such that sendmail is unable to look up hosts and it sticks in the queue. This because there was a change to the resolver to get rid of the static initialization of global data, specificially the default retry count. Sendmail saves a 0 value (it used to be 4) and restores it after the the initialization takes place. This should have been fixed in a newer sendmail, since relying on the resolver's global state preinitialization is a bad thing to do. Supposedly sendmail would explicitly call the resolver init as long as it was not in a debug mode that thwarted the resolver, when the final patch had been made. Perhaps your problem is updated resolver code in the libc used to build sendmail? One of the symptoms of this was that the initial send would fail and the mail would sit in the queue until explicitly flushed out or a timeout occurred.

I'm installing FreeBSD 2.0 (release version, not the "current" version), and everything goes along well except that the bindist does not install. The manpages go on fine, and the kerndist is okay, too, but the bindist just dies partway through extraction. The checksums are all okay, but extraction still dies silently (even the debug screen shows nothing). All the obvious problems are not a problem-- i.e. the disk has been sliced properly to give a 50M DOS partition and a 154 FreeBSD partition; the FreeBSD partition (er, make that slice-- same for the DOS one) has been partitioned with partition "a" as 20M for root, partition "b" as 24M swap, partitions "c" and "d" for the FreeBSD slice and whole disk (in whatever order disklabel defaults, which ought to be correct), partition "e" is 10M for /var, partition "f" is 70M for /usr, and "h" is linked to the DOS slice. See-- I'm not a complete dweeb newbie moron. Of course, the bindist is stored in the DOS slice in a directory called "BINDIST", too. The installation procedure seems to do the checksumming okay, but as I keep saying, the extraction quits after only a minute or two. Go figure. In desperation, I've dropped to the shell and am doing a "cat /mnt/bindist/ bindist.* | gunzip | tar -xvf -" with current directory as "/", and things seem to be unpacking okay. I'm just worried that this is not going to do everything necessary, so I'd appreciate some suggestions....
