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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Before you do your stuff, create a zero-length file (using `touch'). If the file already exists, then exit without doing anything. When you're done doing your stuff, then remove the file. This keeps only one script running at a time. If you have procmail installed then use the `lockfile' command -- it does a better job of lockfile management.

I have downloaded the New.tar.gz file from that franch server (sorry, I can't remember the name), and have tried building it, etc. With 2.2.5 it built just fine, for some odd reason, it don't like 2.2.6. Has anybody successfully compiled IPv6 support into the kernel and set all the networking applications up to support IPv6? If so, how the hell can I get this working?@# I'd like to join this box to the rest of the network.

It seems CISCO routers implement the RFC (default behaviour). I would like to use a FreeBSD machine as such an "automated" Proxy ARP to use it as a gateway for a machine with a *very* limited stack (using the RTC real-time kernel). This RFC specifically mentions patches to the TCP/IP stack (for BSD43). But the RFC is old (Oct . 87). I've attempted a quick search on Internet, but without success. Has someone kept a copy of the indicated patches ?

After getting it up and running I was still faced w/ two problems: 1) On my COMPAQ DESKPRO 5190 and NEC MultiSync 3Fg monitor I can't get the mouse to be recognized. X Windows will only load if I specify /dev/sysmouse but, regardless of which protocol I choose the mouse will not work. 2) Xwindows loads at the incorrect screen resolution (windows occupy the entire screen) w/ SVGA 800x600 settings and Cirrus 5134 chipset specified (I had similar problems w/ Linux but not as bad). Can anyone be of some assistance?

I recently set up an Internet connection via ppp. So I got this daemon running back there, I can do ftp, lynx, send mail, etc. But, when I try to get mail on the remote host (which uses POP3), I get te following error message after a few seconds: gethostbyname failed for outpost.nada.org (which is my hostname) What does _that_ means!? My .fetchmailrc contains the following: defaults protocol POP3 port 110 poll epsom.jsp username myusername password hehehe! where epsom.jsp is the IRIX server which delivers normally the mail... Using POP3 on netscape is working fine (under win95, cause I haven't installed xf86 yet...). On remote, I'm using slirp to emulate PPP, so I've included a POP3 emulator too, which is called slirp.popper (I don't know this software, but it works...), at port 110. As I said I was working under win95 and netscape... Anything could help!

Look, I installed my printer, I could connect via cu or minicom, and suddenly all goes wrong. All these problems appear suddenly. It seems to me it's more a single bug than many things I forgot (even if I always forget sometin ;)). I think these problems appeared after I use my installation diskette by mistake to install some more distribution sets.

Yes, I use POP, but I think this will only retrieve the _new_ email... with no possibilities of saving incoming messages on the remote host... (account on IRIX 5) Ain't there a way to interact _directly_ with the mailing system of the remote host (except than via a terminal)? +-----------------------------------+ | Free the world from businessmen | | Free yourself from your money | +-----------------------------------+ Free the web.

The machine is crashing (sometimes rebooting, sometimes just hangs), and it always happens while the lp0 connection is being heavily used. If it's the lp driver and it's going to go away when I install the machine, then it's not a big deal. If it's more general, and will continue when communicating over ethernet, then it's a serious problem. Both the laptop and the server are running 2.2.5-RELEASE. The problem only occurs on the server.

First the good. Radio signals are bouncing through the net and off of my speakers. I am very impressed with the sound quality. About the screetch, are you absolutely sure that your sound card is set up correctly. The player works fine on a 5+ year old sb16 and a 33.6 modem, and the instructions which come with realaudio are right on the money. Now for the bad news. I see that you have indicated that you are running 5.0. After getting your news, I went back to the real audio site. I can't find the UNIX version 5.0. Even though the link says 5.0, it only gives you 3.0. Are you sure that you absolutely have realaudio 5.0? I wrote the customer support for real audio.

Configured X to use the S3 server and things look ok in the config file but get this when I gry to startx: exeve failed for /usr/x11R6/bin/X (error 13) Now according to /usr/include/sys/errno.h and error 13 is permission denied. there is a symlink for X to /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86_s3 with lrwxrwxrwx and xf86_s3 is rw-r-r, so since no execute bits are set I'm assuming thats why the permission denied error. All the other servers are rwx-r-xr-x. Looking over my 2.1.7 X setup all servers have there are: rwsr-xr-x Is this is what's called having the suid set? I'm going to change things to rwxr-xr-x for the s3 server and try again but why would the server I want to use not be executable when all the others are? It was apparently modified the day I stup the X stuff last week.

Two jumpers to set the address 0x250 or 0x260. I have tried with the disk in at power-up, during boot, just before selecting the media, and after selecting the media. Does not seem to make any difference. The kernel finds the drive okay during device probing. I have tried both addresses and different ISA slots. The funny thing is that this same card and CDROM worked fine with FreeBSD 2.0.1 thru 2.2.5. I do have scd0 in the kernel. I did manage to install via FTP. I then tried to mount the CDROM with: mount /cdrom But there was not a /cdrom directory like there has always been (I don't ever recall having to create this directory on any of my other FreeBSD systems.) So I created the /cdrom and tried again and got a device does not exist error. So I tried: mount /cdrom /dev/scd0a and I got the 'media looks like an audio cd' error. Any other suggestions? Did this driver break between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6?

In this version, you don't get a diagnostic socket at 3000 any more, instead you must specify it in your config file. If you use a + sign, you can base the port on your tun unit number: set server +3000 mypassword For your scenario, you can simply have to configuration profiles, one with the above line and the other with set server +3004 mypassword This stuff should be available soon - I'll announce it when it is. > Thanks in advance, Mick. -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

These issues are all on 2.2.5R. (1) The Complete FreeBSD states there is a "demand" option in /etc/ppp/options. I am able to use "persist", but not "demand". I believe this is a doc error, and will forward this to the appropriate folks upon confirmation. (2) The persist option on works is the pppd daemon is *successful* on it's attempt to reconnect. If the chat script fails for some reason, it will cease all future efforts to re-establish the ppp connection. Is there a way around this behaviour? (3) The CHAT page says to see UUCP for more info on chat scripting. UUCP tells me to see CHAT! WTF? (4) Regardless of #3, the scripting engine is not very reliable, which is what brought about #2. Just to recap what I actually *need*... How do I force pppd to continue trying to reestablish a connection, no matter what - forever if need be? J.A.

There are legimate uses for a boot floppy. You won't get very fair for general use. But for custom installs and repairs it's very nice to have. And you could probably do a small system on the LS-120.

When any government, or any people subjects that "This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know," the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives, might little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free.

Perhaps it's trying to natd the telnet packets destined for the local box? I've not played with natd so I don't know if this is an issue or not.

Since what you want is only a few lines you can use the im= definition in /etc/gettytab, man gettytab for the info on how to do that.

If you're using tcsh, and you don't want to sit and read the man file on how to do everything under the sun w/ tcsh, I recommend installing dotfile (in the ports - /usr/ports/misc/dotfile).

I'm running a pen 133 with 48 Mb of RAM, and a 2.4 G hard drive, partitioned in half. On half the partition resides NT Workstation 4.0. On the other half resides FreeBSD. NT was installed first so FreeBSD's boot manager can do its thing, and yet, it refuses to do the thingy. The boot manager comes up on start up and sees both sides correctly NT as dos and BSD as BSD...but I can only boot into the NT partition. When I created the FreeBSD slice I did set it bootable, and I've managed to get BSD to run on this machine in the past (when it was the *other* operating system that didn't want to run). The entire IDE drive is formatted fat 16. The BSD installation runs like an absolute dream, but on the restart it refuses to boot into bsd, and goes about the default path of booting into NT. Since I'm at the point of pulling my hair out, does anyone have a suggestion or where I might have gone wrong?

What's the best way to print to a networked printer on a network running Novell Netware/MS NT? I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.5. I tried rumba, and it only seems to support mounting Netware directories, which I couldn't get working either. Can you suggest why? (Might the server be set up not to accept mounting from UNIX machines?) [I would ask the Computer Managers here, but they don't seem to know much about printing.] Thanks... Ben.

You must have a SCSI zip AND your SCSI controller must support treating a removable as a bootable volume. My NCR/Symbios controller doesn't but you can flag Adaptecs to do it. The boot floppy just has to have the bootblocks on it - once there, type 'sd(0,a)/kernel' to fire it up. 0 = unit number of Zip. I'm tempted to try this, if I can get my hands on another Zip. I don't want to buy one since removable media is not cost-effective.

The archives should be full of them, or at least this example: rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 xyz.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 / rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 xyz.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 /var rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 xyz.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 /usr rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 xyz.uoregon.edu:/dev/rst0 /usr1 This is using rdump, simply change to dump and remove the hostname: for local usage.

Make a cron task that checks all the quotas and mails those that are over. If you track quotas on the mail spool then this obviously doesn't work -- sending mail to a full mail spool will get you a bounced msg back. Optionally put `quota -q' in the systemwide shell startup files. or the skeleton ones in /usr/share/skel so that all new users will get notices.

I've tried a few different keyboards, wondering if my F2 key was just messed up (always start simply, right?). but to no avail, the boot manager prompt just returns F? again. > You created a FreeBSD slice, yet the whole thing is formatted FAT. FreeBSD requires it's own slice type and uses it's own filesystem. Please clarify. Ok, I fdisked the entire drive, and divided it into two partitions, giving them both FAT16. Then installed NT, leaving the other half of the drive blank. Then booted my machine from the 2.2.6 boot disk, created the BSD slice with its own file allocation system (165 if I remember correctly), and went on to create the / , /var , /usr directories.

Oh yeah, I also had to mkdir /var/local/lib/rpm first. Also, make sure that you start the Linuxulator. I use the LKM and start it with /usr/bin/linux (as root). Of course, you also have to install the linux_lib port to get the libraries, etc. --- Gary Jennejohn Home - garyj@muc.de Work - garyj@fkr.dec.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 11 16:04:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA12566 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 11 May 1998 16:04:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from popalex1.linknet.net (popalex1.linknet.net [206.103.79.89]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA12560 for ; Mon, 11 May 1998 16:04:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mca006@latech.edu) Received: from latech.edu (lrrus5-8.linknet.net [206.103.72.150]) by popalex1.linknet.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA08735 for ; Mon, 11 May 1998 18:04:16 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <355783FD.51BEC50@latech.edu> Date: Mon, 11 May 1998 18:04:29 -0500 From: Max Anderson X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (WinNT; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: PnP questions..

If you have managed to use X under Linux on this machine, you should be able to use the Linux version of /etc/XF86config almost unchanged. The only exception is--you guessed it--the mouse. If you know how the mouse is connected, tell us. Don't guess: if you don't know, take a look at the Linux XF86config file. You should find something like this: Section "Pointer" Protocol "MouseMan" Device "/dev/tty00" What we need to know is exactly what you have in the last of these three lines. It will probably need to be changed, since Linux and FreeBSD use different device names.

After tarring the .gz file, installation was carried through the ns-install shell, and appears to be succesful with no error messages. Then, when I "startx" and type "netscape" from the xterm, I get the "netscape: Command not found" message. The installation shell created the /usr/local/netscape folder, and the netscape* is in this folder too....... Any idea what I am doing wrong and need to correct??

Any idea what I am doing wrong and need to correct?? The /usr/local/netscape directory is probably not in your $PATH. You can edit your path -or- 'ln -s /usr/local/bin/netscape /usr/local/netscape/netscape' -or- Use pkg_add instead of manually installing netscape. Thank you, | Try some of this.

The X-Loop as well as the Return-Path, Errors-To, and Sender lines pretty much show that it went through questions@freebsd.org The headers look right for it to be someone at pclink.com, although they could be forged. I suppose the list owner will complain to pclink.com, and they'll do whatever they want.

I've also booted 2.2.1 on a SCSI Zip disk. As for adding X, I don't know if you'll have the space for that. Remember you have to partition the 96 MB disk into 2 partitions, one for paging space and another for a filesystem. As for booting, you'll have to figure out how to make a bootable FreeBSD on floppy. You can use the boot.flp stuff in /usr/src/release as a model, or search the mailing list archives for PicoBSD, which is already a small FreeBSD system on a floppy. -Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon May 11 20:04:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA16637 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 11 May 1998 20:04:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from natsiq.nunanet.com (root@natsiq.nunanet.com [199.247.47.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id UAA16608 for ; Mon, 11 May 1998 20:04:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marcel@nunanet.com) Received: from ppp-195.nunanet.com (ppp-195.nunanet.com [199.247.47.195]) by natsiq.nunanet.com (8.6.11/8.6.9) with SMTP id XAA15431 for ; Mon, 11 May 1998 23:00:07 -0400 Received: by ppp-195.nunanet.com with Microsoft Mail id <01BD7D31.06C22C20@ppp-195.nunanet.com>; Mon, 11 May 1998 23:03:35 -0400 Message-ID: <01BD7D31.06C22C20@ppp-195.nunanet.com> From: Marcel Mason To: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Subject: Fatal Trap Date: Mon, 11 May 1998 23:03:31 -0400 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 Although this type of question has been asked before (I've searched the archives) I have been unable to find an answer for it. When attempting an install of 2.2.5 on a Compaq Presario CDS 510 that has a 254 Mb Hard Drive and 4 Mb RAM. Install is being attempted from an ATAPI IDE CD-ROM set us as a slave, all work fine in DOS / Windows 3.x. I've tried the install both straight from the CD-ROM as well as by making a boot floppy and attempting the installation in that manner. The system starts to boot and then both install methods result in the following message: Fatal trap: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x0 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0F018c82d code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL0, pres1, def321, gran1 processor eflag = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = 1(swapper) interrupt mask = net tty bio panic: page fault syncing disks... done Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort I'm wondering if this may have something to do with the diagnostic partition that COMPAQ puts on all their drives interfering with the install process somehow.

I grabbed the Linux 5.0. By the way it's also behaving oddly for me, but there have been reports that it works well for others, so again, it's probably some dumb thing I'm doing wrong. I found some other interesting things to hack on in my free time, so I might not get back to fixing my RealAudio for awhile... :-) Cheers, Bruce.

In the Disklabel Editor, I'm using the Auto Defaults for all. - I selected all the installation sets. Up to this point there is no problem... -CDROM: I burned a CD with the entire FreeBSD directory structure. (\FreeBSD\2.2.6-RELEASE). While booting, FreeBSD recognized my CDROM, but failed to install from the CDROM and I get an error message stating that the CD in the drive is either not a FreeBSD CD or is an older one and if I was sure if I wanted to use it. After hitting "Yes" it comes up with the error that it couldn't extract the distributions. -FTP: I copied FreeBSD to a Linux directory on my other computer to where it would be available for FTP installation, and that actually worked to a point. It came up with an error about 15 minutes into the installation that it couldn't install the SCONTRIB distribution and if I wanted to try again (to which I had no luck). -DOS: Tried installing it from a DOS partition, but it came up with the error "Couldn't extract the distributions..." Perhaps it's looking for it in a different directory? -NFS: Same. My system configurations (I got the same errors on both) --Packard Bell 120MHz (overdrive from Intel) with 16MB of RAM, Western Digital HD (2.5Gb) Seagate HD (520 MB), Mitsumi 8X CDROM, Yamaha sound card and a Linksys 10BaseT Ethernet card. -- Intel Pentium 166MMX with 48MB of RAM, Western Digital HD (4.5Gb), Maxtor HD (520MB), Creative Labs 8X CDROM, Sound Blaster 64 AWE Sound Card, and also a Linksys 10BaseT Ethernet card. ** Both systems run Windows 95 OSR 1, and Linux 2.0.33. Well, I hope this isn't overkill in information, but better more info than not enough. I realize I could save myself a lot of hassle if I bought the CDROM from Walnut Creek, but for now I think I'll stick with the true meaning of FreeBSD. Thank you for your time.

There's a bug in inetd. It seems to be related to running low on swap, but I haven't been able to pinpoint it yet. You don't need to recompile inetd, just restarting it will clear up the problem. If anybody has this problem, please contact me *before* restarting it. I'd really like to find out where it happens.

The same for me. The message I got from RA5.0 was: you don't have the right codec for this. I actually stoped there. I don't have the time to debug this anymore. But I do have time to complain to the support or whatever they're calling themselfs. To contact realaudio you should fill in a stupid FORM on the www.real.com.

By the way I want to use coax >cable with the Intel card do I have to tell FreeBSD that during setup or >it will autotomatically detect the transceiver type? > Most (all?) of the FreeBSD ethernet drivers won't autodetect the transceiver type. You'll need to set this up with the DOS-based setup program for the card, as well as configuring the IRQ, I/O port, etc to something appropriate for your machine. On the FreeBSD side, you need to make sure that the driver for the card is configured into your kernel. For the EE16 this is the 'ie' driver (I think -- someone please correct me if I'm wrong there). If you're running the GENERIC kernel that was installed when you first installed FreeBSD, then you already have this driver. If you've built your own kernel since then, make sure you have a line like device ie0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 iomem 0xd0000 vector ieintr somewhere in your kernel config file, then build a new kernel. You can set the card parameters in the config file or just use the '-c' option at boot time. All being well, the card will be detected (look for 'ie0' in the output of the 'dmesg' command to confirm this) and just work.

Even if it isn't picked up automatically you can always configure the IRQ & port using the '-c' option at boot time. Just make sure the config you choose doesn't clash with any of your other serial ports (or any other device for that matter), and that you enable the sio device that you assign it to. Eg, to put the modem on sio2 you might do something like: config> pnp 1 0 enable os irq0 5 port 0x3e8 then make sure sio2 is enabled and the modem *should* be detected. This works for me on a crusty old pre-PnP 486, but YMMV. BTW Doug, if I wanted the modem to be autodetected, where would I put the relevant info? A quick poke through the kernel sources hasn't revealed anything, but I am probably looking in the wrong place.

When I compiled it I got an application which has the following problems : 1- when free(pointeur) is reach, the application exited and sent the following error : /usr/libexec/ld.so "AMIC" undefined symbol 2- the function printf has a strange behavior : the code : printf("something"); printf("variable %s\n", string); where string is a pointeur (char) manipulated with malloc() and realloc() is working. And the code : /* printf("something"); */ printf("variable %s\n", string); sends the error "Segmentation fault". I am developping the application under FreeBSD 2.2.5 and I don't get the errors under Solaris. Thanks for any help. J-P.

If we do not let real audio know, they will never support UNIX versions greater than 3.0. I hate to see us (FreeBSD users) miss out on some of this new technology. I find it hard to imagine that they probably use some UNIX version to create their product for win platforms, and they do not bother to support the UNIX versions. I for one, would be willing to pay the 29 dollar fee, for the audio pro 5.0. > Progressive Networks, Inc.

I opted to stick with the version 3.0 for FreeBSD. This works well for me. I had problems when I first set up real audio, but this was attributed to the fact that I had the sound card incorrectly set up. In my system, the IRQ needs to be set to 5. That was my error. I also added a line which points to the sound card IRQ. I am at work and I do not remember the exact syntax, but it is in LINT for version FreeBSD 2.2.6. Tomorrow I will post my exact lines. Once I changed these lines and compiled, presto, all was well. A good test is to install rsynth (/usr/ports/audio/rsynth). The execuatable is called 'say'. Do this test say this is a test to check my sound card I hope this works If your hear a synthetic voice crack and drop half of this sentence, then you may have a sound card IRQ problem. This is what mine did. After I reconfigured the kernal, I could run the above test with no problems. Another interesting point to make is that I noticed in the ports off of the FreeBSD home page, there exists a radio port: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/audio.html radio-2.0.4 Radio over the Internet.

If the stuff on your Windows95 partition is worth more to you than the price of the book, you should buy the book so you don't (hopefully) loose everything in your attempt to install FreeBSD.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Good Morning, I've read the archives, and have gotten conflicting answers, so I wanted to ask here and hopefully get a definitive one. I have a SCSI drive that I wish to make an exact copy of. The drives that I am going to be copying onto are identical to the master (same model). I tried using dd in single user mode to duplicate the disks: dd if=/dev/rsd0c of=/dev/rsd1c bs=32768 And this seems to work... except when I attempt to use the newly created disk, I get all sorts of errors... fsck freaks out on the drive. After awhile, I can get it to repair the drive, but either I lose some files or things get corrupted. In the mailing lists I have seen people suggest doing the copy via dd... and others saying not to... It does not seem to work as is. I'm not a newbie to FreeBSD, and would really like to understand what is happenning here. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Truly superb, I know very little about unix type systems, and even I was able to install FreeBSD, and configure the kernel etc. However, (isn't there always one?) I still don't know very much about the system to diagnose problems, the one thing left that I want to do now is install netscape, after installing the system, I added lynx, apache, pine and netscape 3.0, they all work except netscape, I must have forgotten something, because it keeps saying "couldn't open display" or something along those lines, I figure it's something to do with x11, which I haven't been able to install succesfully yet. I would appreciate it greatly if you could point me towards a step through for installation of netscape or x windows or both even. Thanks! John D.

Octave does numerical calculations and uses Gnuplot for plotting. Both are free packages within the distribution, of course. On the commercial sector there are IDL or PV-WAVE. Both are quite similar and have the same pedrigee. I successfully run the Linux version of PV-WAVE 6.1 with the Linux emulator under 2.2.2-R. Maybe the same can be done with IDL but I've never tried.

Please follow the instructions of this letter very carefully, immediately print and READ TWICE. Greetings Hopefully my name is still on the list below. I am a retired attorney, and about two years ago a man came to me with a letter. The letter he brought me is the same as the letter in front of you now. He asked me to verify the fact that this letter was legal. I told him that I would review it and get back to him. When I first read the letter I thought it was some off-the-wall idea to make money. A week later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I told him that the letter originally brought to me was not 100% legal. My client asked me to alter the letter to make it 100% legal. I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it will be alright. I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it works. I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating. Before my client left, I asked him to keep me updated as to his results. About two months later he called to tell me that he had received over $800,000 in cash !! I didn't believe him so he asked me to try the plan and see for myself. I thought about it for a few days and decided that there was not much to lose. I followed the instructions exactly and mailed out 200 letters. Sure enough the money started coming in !! It came slowly at first, but after three weeks I was getting more than I could open in a day. After about three months the money stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my earnings and at the end they totaled $868,439.00. I was earning a good living as a lawyer, but as anyone in the legal profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress that comes with the job. I told myself if things worked out I would retire from practice and play golf. I decided to try the letter again, but this time I sent out 500 letters. Well, three months after that I had totaled $2,344,178.00 !! I just couldn't believe it. I met my old client for lunch to find out how this exactly works. He told me that there were a few similar letters going around. What made this one different is the fact that there are seven names on the letter, not five like most others. The fact alone resulted in fact more returns. The other factor was the advise I gave him in making sure the whole thing was perfectly legal, since no one wants to risk doing anything illegal. I bet now you are curious about what little changes I told him to make. Well, if you send a letter like this out, to be legal, you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar. I told him that anyone sending a dollar out must receive something in return. So when you send a dollar to each of the seven names on the list, you must include a slip of paper saying "please put me on your mailing list" and include your name, mailing address and e-mail address (your phone # is optional). Follow the simple instructions below exactly, and in less than three months you will receive over $800,000.00 A) Mail a $1 bill (wrapped in a piece of blank paper) to each of the seven names below, include a note (typed or handwritten) saying "please add me to your mailing list" and include your name, mailing address, and e-mail address. Your phone number is optional. 1) M.Wright 4637-H Hope valley Rd, Durham, NC 27707 2) R Wetherbee 60 Chapel Rd South Windsor CT, 06074 3) Bryan Baisch 1703 Purity ct Fenton,MO 63025 4) Dami 800 west Gandy Denison,TX 75020 5) D.

Then place your name in the #7 spot. This is best done by saving this to a file and enter in your information on line #7. Be very careful when you type the addresses and proof read them. C) When you have completed the above instructions you have options of mailing your new letter in two ways 1) through US Postal Service or 2) through E-Mail.

(refer to title 18, section 1302 & 1342 of the U.S. Postal and Lottery Laws) Assume for example you get a 7.5% return rate, which is very conservative. My first attempt was about 9.5% and my second time was over 11%. 1)When you mail out 200 letters, 15 people will send you $1.00 2)Those 15 people mail out 200 letters and 225 people send you $1.00 3)Those 225 mail out 200 letters and 3,375 people send you $1.00 4)Those 3,375 people mail out 200 letters and 50,625 people send you $1.00 5)Those 50,625 people mail out 200 letters and 759,375 people send you $1.00 6)Those 759,375 people mail out 200 letters and 11,390,625 people send you $1.00 At this point your name drops off the list.

If it thinks it's compiling C++, it will look in /usr/include/g++ by default. You'll probably find it useful to run 'g++' rather than plain old 'gcc' to compile C++ -- the former automatically links against libg++ whereas gcc doesn't.

Octave > does numerical calculations and uses Gnuplot for plotting. Both are free > packages within the distribution, of course. The combo 'octave+gnuplot' is in fact not bad. I'm in the process of writing a PhD thesis on adaptive color classification in images. I have access to Mathematica and Maple. Both of them are totally worthless when it comes to handling large amounts of numerical data (i.e. color images). The tool of choice in this case (number crunching, analysis and plotting) would definitely be MATLAB (not: _not_ Matlab; different package). Unfortunately it costs huge amounts of money ... The site http://math.nist.gov/ and http://www-ocean.tamu.edu/~baum/ocean_graphics.html give very comprehensive overviews over mathematical software packages. I tried quite a couple of freeware/shareware packages and ended with - octave 2.1.5 http://www.che.wisc.edu/octave/ - gnuplot 3.6 Beta http://science.nas.nasa.gov/~woo/gnuplot/beta/ (The gnuplot homepage is at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/gnuplot_info.html) Note: You have to use 3.6 beta in order to perform fitting. gnufit 1.2 supports fitting aswell but isn't as good as gnuplot 3.6 beta. Another handy tool for data fitting is 'fudgit' (sorry, no URL at hand). Both 'octave' and 'gnuplot' won't do all the things you ask for. But together they come quite close. Correctly used, they are pretty mighty. -Walter -- Walter Hafner_______________________________ hafner@in.tum.de *CLICK* The best observation I can make is that the BSD Daemon logo is _much_ cooler than that Penguin :-) (Donald Whiteside) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue May 12 10:03:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA06303 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 12 May 1998 10:03:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA06292 for ; Tue, 12 May 1998 10:03:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA02994; Tue, 12 May 1998 10:03:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Tue, 12 May 1998 10:03:29 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: Scott Mitchell cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD Modem Compatibility In-Reply-To: <199805121135.MAA02918@hotpoint.dcs.qmw.ac.uk> 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 On Tue, 12 May 1998, Scott Mitchell wrote: > BTW Doug, if I wanted the modem to be autodetected, where would I put the > relevant info?

We've got this exact same configuration running just fine. We installed the 2.x stable branch for it. First impression is this is a very fast machine. Make World takes about 55 minutes to complete, which is faster then the Dual-PII 300 (66MHZ motherboard) we tested which took about 75 minutes. I just saw the Dual 100MHZ motherboards the other day and will probably give that a spin sometime next month. I hear a 450 PII is due out in July so expect the 400s to drop a hundred or so when that happens. It does get expensive to be on the edge.

Are you initializing string to NULLs? printf is probably running off the end of the variable because it isn't initialized. I'd have to see the entire code.

Nope -- each card is different. It'd be impossible to write an all-encompassing NE2000 configurator. You can always use a DOS boot floppy.

But I do exactly what you are asking, I share a directory with both netatalk and Samba at the same time. And NFS. And via http with Apache. Drew the line at anonymous ftp. Possibly the only difference between my setup and yours, I don't let anyone write to my shares via Samba, and only those with accounts on this machine can write via netatalk. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net (hm) ====================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Yes, I found that one also. However, I am not sure how to set it up correctly: Assuming natd is running on nathost on port "natd 4665/divert" and I want to redirect tcp connections going to host1:port1 in real to host2:port2. host2 is connected to fxp0. First the ipfw statment: ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via fxp0 Or do I have to use ipfw add divert natd all any to host1 via fxp0 And the the natd line: natd -n fxp0 -redirect_port tcp host2:port2 host1:port1 I have tried around a little bit and I see packets going through natd (when run with -v), but the connection never succeeds... Any hints?

You can find their web page at: http://plasma-gate.weizmann.ac.il/Xmgr/ Some features (from their web page) A few of features of ACE/gr are: User defined scaling, tick marks, labels, symbols, line styles, colors. Batch mode for unattended plotting. Read and write parameters used during a session. Regressions, splines, running averages, DFT/FFT, cross/auto-correlation, ... Note the last one! :-) It now comes ready to work w/ xbae which, as I understand it, works much like a spreadsheet. I can't find xbae's web page right now - it's out there somewhere. :-) Also, xmgr is in the ports - /usr/ports/math/xmgr! I've used it recently to do a bunch of figures for a published paper and will use it for my thesis. Hope this helps.

I can't figure out how to get the "boot:" prompt, and the preceding boot messages, to show up on the serial console. When the system first boots, the initial messages- including the "boot:" prompt- show up on ttyv0 (the monitor connected to the video card). After the "boot:" prompt about three lines of messages appear on ttyv0. After that all the boot console-messages go to the serial terminal ttyd0. I'd like all the console messages- especially the "boot:" prompt- to go to the serial terminal. Any advice would be most appreciated. I've probably just neglected a step in the configuration process. Listed below is the steps I've taken so far. Thanks, Jim *************** what I've done so far: 1. I set /etc/ttys to this: >>>>>>>>> Begin /etc/ttys excerpt # # @(#)ttys 5.1 (Berkeley) 4/17/89 # # name getty type status comments # # This entry needed for asking password when init goes to single-user mode # If you want to be asked for password, change "secure" to "insecure" here console none vt100 off secure # ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure # Virtual terminals ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ttyv2 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure ttyv3 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure # Serial terminals ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" vt100 off secure ttyd2 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" unknown off secure ttyd3 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" unknown off secure >>>>>>>> End /etc/ttys excerpt The serial terminal worked okay on ttyd0. 2. Next, I updated the kernel configuration file in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf. It now looks like this: >>>>>>>>>> Begin /usr/src/sys/i386/conf configuration-file excerpt: device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 vector siointr device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 vector siointr device sio2 at isa? disable port "IO_COM3" tty irq 5 vector siointr device sio3 at isa? disable port "IO_COM4" tty irq 9 vector siointr #I added these to the GENERIC configuration: options COMCONSOLE options FORCE_COMCONSOLE >>>>>>>>>>> End /usr/src/sys/i386/conf configuration-file excerpt: 3.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greg, I think "we are mixing apples and oranges". The multiple partitions I am talking about are the OS partitions not the user partitions (/home). I agree that a single partition per disk for non-OS stuff is a good idea. The question is "How do you set up the OS partitions for installation?". By default, a 4.4BSD install wants a /, swap, /var, and /usr and this is spelled out in "Installing and Operating 4.4BSD UNIX". You could minimize this and have a /, swap, and /usr (like SunOS 4.X) where /var lives in / (or symlink /var to /usr/var after the install). You could also minimize this and have a / and swap where /var and /usr live in /. I like a small /, a MFS /tmp, a separate /var, and a read-only /usr. If I want to build the OS, I'll use a separate /usr/src filesystem. You like a small / and a large /usr for the rest of the OS. See below and also http://www.BSDI.COM/support/misc/disk-layout. Mike Piece from "Installing and Operating 4.4BSD UNIX": ... The filesystem in 4.4BSD has been reorganized in an effort to meet several goals: 1) The root filesystem should be small. 2) There should be a per-architecture centrally-shareable read-only /usr filesystem. 3) Variable per-machine directories should be concentrated below a single mount point named /var. 4) Site-wide machine independent shareable text files should be separated from architecture specific binary files and should be concentrated below a single mount point named /usr/share. These goals are realized with the following general layouts. The reorganized root filesystem has the following directo- ries: /etc (config files) /bin (user binaries needed when single-user) /sbin (root binaries needed when single-user) /local (locally added binaries used only by this machine) /tmp (mount point for memory based filesystem) /dev (local devices) /home (mount point for AMD) /var (mount point for per-machine variable directories) /usr (mount point for multiuser binaries and files) The reorganized /usr filesystem has the following directo- ries: /usr/bin (user binaries) /usr/contrib (software contributed to 4.4BSD) /usr/games (binaries for games, score files in /var) /usr/include (standard include files) /usr/lib (lib*.a from old /usr/lib) /usr/libdata (databases from old /usr/lib) /usr/libexec (executables from old /usr/lib) /usr/local (locally added binaries used site-wide) /usr/old (deprecated binaries) /usr/sbin (root binaries) /usr/share (mount point for site-wide shared text) /usr/src (mount point for sources) The reorganized /usr/share filesystem has the following directories: /usr/share/calendar (various useful calendar files) /usr/share/dict (dictionaries) /usr/share/doc (4.4BSD manual sources) /usr/share/games (games text files) /usr/share/groff_font (groff font information) /usr/share/man (typeset manual pages) /usr/share/misc (dumping ground for random text files) /usr/share/mk (templates for 4.4BSD makefiles) /usr/share/skel (template user home directory files) /usr/share/tmac (various groff macro packages) /usr/share/zoneinfo (information on time zones) The reorganized /var filesystem has the following directo- ries: /var/account (accounting files, formerly /usr/adm) /var/at (at(1) spooling area) /var/backups (backups of system files) /var/crash (crash dumps) /var/db (system-wide databases, e.g. tags) /var/games (score files) /var/log (log files) /var/mail (users mail) /var/obj (hierarchy to build /usr/src) /var/preserve (preserve area for vi) /var/quotas (directory to store quota files) /var/run (directory to store *.pid files) /var/rwho (rwho databases) /var/spool/ftp (home directory for anonymous ftp) /var/spool/mqueue (sendmail spooling directory) /var/spool/news (news spooling area) /var/spool/output (printer spooling area) /var/spool/uucp (uucp spooling area) /var/tmp (disk-based temporary directory) /var/users (root of per-machine user home directories) ...

I have the Linux option compiled into my kernel. I had assumed that is why I get that response when typing linux at the prompt. You get it and don't have Linux linked through the kernel. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on this for us. Otherwise it appears that you have the current Linux emulation stuff installed. I am at a loss. Did you try re-installing WordPerfect? BTW, don't let it mess with, I think it is /etc/printcap. If you do, it will hose up your system. I think that is the file that during installation it gives you that option for changing. It's been a while since I've installed it ;-) Sorry that I don't have better news.

No, it's a PPP thing. But it does not preclude using resolv.conf and it does not imply that name server IP addresses will be changing regularly. We do it here and there's not a speck of MS or Ascend in sight.

As soon as try to download something I stop receiving any incoming packets. The link remains up and outgoing packets continue to be sent. I've chiseled down my ppp.conf and ppp.linkup scripts to be functionally identical to the samples provided. I installed the precompiled ppp binaries from Brian's page. The same hardware works very reliably under linux/pppd. Also I've had this machine working very reliably under FreeBSD-current with the same ppp configuration.

This is a good example of where you could have saved a lot of time by telling the complete configuration in your first message. The 7895 isn't supported by the standard SCSI driver. It is supported by CAM, however, which at the moment is available only in 3.0-CURRENT.

Another poster recommends "MATLAB" not "Matlab"; I assume that by the former he means the [commercial] product from Mathworks, Inc. (www.mathworks.com, I think). If so, that package contains very mature code for signal analysis, control theory, matrix manipulations of all kinds, and so on. I'm plugging them, I admit. (I used to work with the people there). They have significant, deep academic discounts. I would be very, very surprised if it is not available at uni-heidelberg already, possibly site-licensed. Ask in the mathematics, electrical engineering or aeronautic engineering departments.

This spamboy is probably spoofing the from line, and does not have an AOL account. The headers tell more: Received: from unknown (ts5-09.mtl.istar.ca [198.53.15.168]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id IAA20075 for ; Tue, 12 May 1998 08:29:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Hello@aol.com) Since this header was added by "our" mail hub, it is probably more reliable that an easy-to-spoof From: line. Compaints should be addressed to mtl.istar.ca or somewhere in that domain. Also, since the spammer is running a paper-mail chain letter, he should be referred to the US postal service, and to whoever handles that in Canada, probably the R.C.M.P. This post of mine here has a forged From: line, that points to my true and righteous Email address (djv@bedford.net), not to the user and machine that I am using at the moment (listread@castor.loco.net), which is a box on my RFC-1918 local network.

I'm probably not going to look at the zsh one. You might forward it to the zsh people. inetd is part of FreeBSD, of course, so we can't foist that off on anybody else.

Typically, change to the directory you want (for the base system, it's /usr/src) and enter # patch -p0 < patchfile 2>&1 | tee patch.log Make sure to keep a log. The stuff flies past too fast to notice any errors, and you often get some kind of error. See "Porting UNIX Software" (O'Reilly) for a more detailled description.

The client wants to use Linux, but am trying to convince them to use FreeBSD. I am not sure how to design this setup to achieve the desired results. The client wants to build a redundant Linux Internet solution. It is an auction site that is currently running on one server. They want to build a second one. They do not want the new machine sitting around waiting for the primary to fail (which eliminates mirroring). They want some sort of load balancing when both machines are up. They want the ability to take a machine off-line for maintenance without affecting on-line users. If one of the machines would experience a failure, they want the other one to automatically absorb the additional load. Any ideas on how this can be implemented? Thanks in advance.

For example, on my system I have /usr/src as a symlink to /src/freebie/src; this is the standard source. I also have two development trees /src/razzia/src and /src/daemon/src which I use for building test kernels for 3.0 and 2.2.6 respectively. To build a 3.0 kernel, I do: # cd /src/razzia/src/sys/i386/conf # config -g RAZZIA # cd ../../compile/RAZZIA # make depend # make You'll notice that, modulo the kernel name, the last four lines are identical with what you'd do to build a kernel in the /usr/src/sys hierarchy.

It is an auction site that is currently running on one server. They want to build a second one. They do not want the new machine sitting around waiting for the primary to fail (which eliminates mirroring). They want some sort of load balancing when both machines are up.

I had no Idea the this mailer was not word wrapping, and beg a thousand pardons for posting illegible questions. Thanks Greg, I seldom send mail to my self, except on long rainy weekends, so I had no way of knowing. Here is the question. Hello all, I have a question regarding Internet server load balancing. The client wants to build a redundant Linux Internet solution. I am trying to convince them to go with FreeBSD. It is an auction site that is currently running on one server. They want to build a second one. They do not want the new machine sitting around waiting for the primary to fail (which eliminates mirroring). They want some sort of load balancing when both machines are up. They want the ability to take a machine off-line for maintenance without affecting on-line users. If one of the machines would experience a failure, they want the other one to automatically absorb the additional load. Any ideas on how this can be implemented? Thanks in advance.

This makes me wonder if an old file is really the problem here. When I do move those files as you suggest, then everything is just fine. Moving them back and forth is a pain. Thanks for the help.

Unfortunately, I can't progress with the installation without a cd-rom. In the manual, on pg. 85 there is mention of the problem that I am experiencing, I'll quote the part that is giving me trouble: "If you can't figure out the settings by examining the board or documentation, you can restart the system and use UserConfig to change the address to -1." Now, the default address is 0x230. That doesn't work. I'm afraid I don't know how "to change the address to -1" This may be idiocy on my part, but I've tried, in the Parameters section of UserConfig, just about everything I could think of. If anyone out there has any ideas, or even a range of address to try, I would be grateful.

Install Linux? Seriously, though, it sounds like you're trying to install a binary (Linux/i86, Linux/Sparc ???) on a F'bsd system. If that's what you want, (i.e. you are running Linux emulation), then try forcing the rpm with, I think, --force. You may wish to fiddle with the installation root (see the manpage), so that the linux binaries are installed under /compat or wherever. Rpm can use an "rpm.conf" file, I think. Read up on --force; it seems rather brutal, overiding all manner of things. Since installing Linux binaries would appear to be a prime use of rpm on BSD, your problem probably merits a bug report to the package retainer.

Vty 1 messages report the following six times then quits: Illegal data mode for this track while reading block 64. - From the Virtual Holographic Console I get the same error message when manually executing mount -t cd9660 /dev/matcd0c /dist but, using the matcd0a device it mounts OK. Looking at device driver dates the system has only updated the matcd0c device driver. Any ideas???

This is when it tries to install the docs. I basically remove it so it doesn't install the docs and all goes well with the install but no way of starting it. I've tried 1.4 and 1.4.5.0 patched to 1.4.5.3 with no luck. I just noticed a 1.4.5.55 and will try that one soon. With some luck I'll be able to figure it out. The results when I try starting it is it coredumps. I just reinstall 1.0 and all is well again.

It's very nice to be able to give your dialup clients nothing but a phone number and their username/password. Our tech support people were very happy when we upgraded to term servers that supported this. One less "what's a right click?" question for them to answer... Are you working this into the "normal" (non-MP) PPP? It would make for an easier install for those poor souls that do an ftp install over a modem. I'm pretty sure every modern dialup box supports the extensions.

Yes... I did a disklabel -e on the destination drive and gave it all the settings (exactly) from the source drive. I decided to try it a little differently. I used the same command: dd if=/dev/sd0c of=/dev/sd1c bs=32768 Only this time I booted from the boot floppy and the fixit floppy to do it. It worked that way. So it seems like you can't dd with a source drive which has a filesystem mounted. My new question is why doesn't it work even if the filesystem is mounted read-only. If someone knows why that is I am very interested in knowing that. Thanks alot to everyone who replied, Jay K.

It works in the latest ppp. If your ISP accepts QUALPROTO requests (LQR), you can enable LQM logging to see what sort of quality the link is (you'll need to read the rfc to understand the numbers - sorry). If your ISP doesn't accept QUALPROTO requests, enable LCP logging and you'll see ECHO LQRs being sent to the other side. All [ECHO] LQRs should be replied. All duplicate [ECHO] LQRs *MUST* be replied to - otherwise the other side is dead. Assuming the other side is still alive, you can enable async logging to see data being read & written to the serial device. If it's being written and nothings being read, then your ISP needs to be involved on the other side doing the same thing.... > --Yarema -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

I'm running a K6/233. It runs fine, but it took me over a month to find a big enough cooler. Without that, it would fall over whenever it had to do something CPU intensive. If you can find one, the K6/266 is a different die and only dissipates about a quarter as much power as the /233. Depending on the temperatures down your way, this might be a better alternative. Note that I have had absolutely no trouble since installing a big enough fan, though. > Someone mentioned something about a 64MB RAM limit. Is this true? Like all i386 family processors, the K6 can address 4 GB main memory. The problem you've heard of is problably that the current Intel chipset for Socket 7 (the old style Pentium socket) can only cache 64 MB. From a message I sent about 2 months ago: The German magazine c't, which I personally greatly respect, did a test of a number of motherboards which can cache more than 64 MB in their issue 4/98. The chipsets tested were: Intel 430TX Ali Aladdin IV+ VIA Apollo VP2 SiS 5582 Intel 430HX VIA Apollo VPX The order is the order of speed in c't's BAPCo benchmark (which, unfortunately, is stronly Microsoft-oriented) with 64 MB main memory (430TX is the fastest, with a rating of 225, compared to 221 for teh Aladdin and the VP2). With increasing memory, the TX performance drops, while the performance of the other chip sets increases. At 72 MB, the TX drops below Aladdin and VP2, at 96 MB (!) below the HX, and by 128 MB, it's down to 204, compared to 227 for the Aladdin (which by this time has left the VP2 behind). All reports say that the cache limit is particularly hard on Microsoft due to its brain-damaged memory allocation; I can't verify this, but I'm prepared to believe it. That would mean that the drop under FreeBSD would be less. I'm currently running a TX board with 96 MB, and while I'm trying to replace it, I can't say that "my performance sucks". I've now got an SiS-based AGP motherboard, which I'm burning in with a P5/133. So far it works fine, so when I have time I'll put it in the other machine and see how it runs with the K6.

The manual pages only mention NFS mounts, and the SysAdmin book >I have is very SysV-ish and does not seem to directly translate to BSD. Indeed you can. You need to set up what amd calls a 'program mount' in your map file; essentially this just runs the usual CD mount command when you access anything under /a/cdrom (or wherever your automount tree is). You should probably read the amd manual in /usr/share/info/amdref.info.gz to have a clue what I am talking about :) The mountpoints are kind of weird for these program mounts. I have /cdrom symlinked to /a/cdrom to trigger the automounter, but the CD actually gets mounted on /mnt/cdrom. This means that you need to use 'amq -u /mnt/cdrom' to unmount the disk before it times out. Let me know if you want me to mail you my map file; unfortunately it's at home right now and I am not.

You can use an app called vnc if your work machine has it's own IP. (Someone correct me if I am wrong.) Then you can connect to your machine and see the X setup, just as if you were right there in front of it. And if you want to do it from any machine, you can use the vncjava server, which lets you connect from any java web browser or applet runner. I installed it last week and am very impressed. On the flip side, it also lets you serve from a Win95 machine, so that you can access and run apps on a Win95 machine as if you were sitting in front of it. In this case, it takes over the screen, so if you move your mouse, the pointer on the Winbox moves. (A really good way to mess with the guy in the next cubicle, if you are miscevious.) As to news readers, I use kNews. All of the above is in the ports directories: vnc in net/vnc, vncjava in net/vncjava and knews in news/knews. Hoped this helped.

Is this true? I am personaly useing the 233 chip and it runs rings around my old intel config. Also I have used a system at UC Berkeley that is a K6 and it normaly has 100+ users loged in shell (telnet and ssh). And it works wonders. If I remember correctly the 64 limit is in the generic. But if you compile in I think it is called MAXRAMSIZE or something like that. It should be in the LINT. With the ram size in question you should be fine.

Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Zber Qnrzbaf, Srjre Qrivyf! This works perfectly without having to su root. However when I try, for example, change the IP address by typing /stand/sysinstall; I get the installation screen. But when I choose the "Configure" option by using the arrow key, FreeBSD exits to the prompt. Try access by typing c, there's nothing happens. Try other options I get same result.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is rather long; sorry. I'm trying to be reasonably complete. Replaced a 0.5 GB Quantum disk with an 8.5 GB Micropolis; each at SCSI target 2 on SCSI bus 0 (ahc0): /kernel: (ahc0:2:0): "MICROP 4691WS T171" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 /kernel: sd2(ahc0:2:0): Direct-Access 8681MB (17780058 512 byte sectors) Hadn't had anything important (as it turns out) on the Quantum, so I was in no rush to move the data over. Had already set up some filesystems on the Micropolis drive (on a different FreeBSD box), where I had been exercising it (successfully). Device is Ultra-SCSI w/ an adapter (as is another drive on the same chain). Since the Quantum drive had been in the middle of the chain, I removed the termination jumper on the Micropolis drive: during my testing (on the other box), it had been the terminating device on the chain. I had had /dev/sd2b set up as a 1 GB swap on the test box; for the re- assignment, I thought it would be better to make it a filesystem, so I did a "newfs" to it, then tried to mount it: shrimp[55]% sudo newfs /dev/rsd2b /dev/rsd2b: 4194304 sectors in 1024 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors 2048.0MB in 64 cyl groups (16 c/g, 32.00MB/g, 7680 i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 32, 65568, 131104, 196640, 262176, 327712, 393248, 458784, 524320, 589856, ... 3866656, 3932192, 3997728, 4063264, 4128800, shrimp[56]% sudo mount /dev/sd2b /shrimp/mntb /dev/sd2b on /shrimp/mntb: Device not configured Huh??!? Ran "sudo scsi -f /dev/rsd2.ctl -r" (alternated with several interspersed attempts to perform "sudo disklabel -r sd2"); finally got one that worked, finally(!) was able to do the mount, and fired up a Perl script I had cobbled up to create & destroy files... which ran for a while, then said: disk_tst-creator: Couldn't open /mntf/tmp/13055308 for writing: Input/output error I had been doing a "tail -f /var/log/messages" in another window all this time... no clues there. Tried doing "ls mnt?" (I had mounted the various filesystems on the disk at mount points that matched that expression)... and the "tmp" subdirectories weren't visible. :-( Then I tried again, and they were visible. [I didn't do anything. Honest!] So I fired up my Perl script again, which started up, then hung. Then I heard a voice from another cube call out, asking if the machine in question had hung. I tried firing up another window to take a look... and decided that the better part of valor was to go down to the server room & check. Just as I opened the door, I saw that the machine was completing the multi-user start-up, and it then prompted for a login. Still no clues that I can see in /var/log/messages or in the output of dmesg. So, since this is -questions, I have some: * Where might I look for clues as to why a filesystem (or the device) keeps disappearing? * What might I do to prevent that behavior (while retaining the use of the disk drive)? I look forward to suggestions.... :-( Thanks, david -- David Wolfskill dhw@whistle.com (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 10:41:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA05809 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 10:41:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from super-g.inch.com (super-g.com [207.240.140.161]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA05782 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 10:41:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from spork@super-g.com) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by super-g.inch.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) with SMTP id NAA03678; Wed, 13 May 1998 13:39:50 -0400 (EDT) Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 13:39:50 -0400 (EDT) From: spork X-Sender: spork@super-g.inch.com To: Stefan Molnar cc: perl , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: AMD K6 with FreeBSD???

I don't know when it happened, but in the 2.2-stable of about a month ago, I see this on bootup of a machine with 128M and no "MAXMEM" line in the kernel config: CPU: Pentium (133.27-MHz 586-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x52c Stepping=12 Features=0x1bf real memory = 134217728 (131072K bytes) avail memory = 129245184 (126216K bytes) So I guess this is a new feature...

Well, you're in luck -- someone made a CAM boot floppy that supports the 7895! There are some tricky caveats but it at least works. See http://www.freebsd.org/~abial/cam-boot/.

I think this should be natd -n fxp0 -redirect_port tcp host2:port2 port1 Remember, everything behind the natd box is invisible and doesn't have real IPs.

You'll need to check your DOS drivers to figure out what base port and IRQ it's set up to use, then feed that to the boot-time configuration. If you want to try the auto-probe, select the CLI boot-time configuration then enter at the config> prompt port matcd0 -1 irq matcd0 -1 Entering 'visual' will put you into the full-screen configuration, where you can finish up configuring devices.

That's a problem only if you are using the western digital cards. ne2000's don't care. To get valid values you'll need to run the DOS setup program for the cards, select the values in that program and then use those values for the kernel.

It looks like it should port over pretty easily to FreeBSD.

I believe that Qt is totally free of charge if you use it in the arena of free software. If you intend to profit from it's use with closed code, then you have to pay development costs for it. Simply put, "keep it free, and it stays free". I don't have any trouble with that. Some software simply won't get written unless someone pays someone else to write it. Qt is doing that AND allowing free software to benefit at the same time. They are giving back. That's all I have to say. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Short Colossians 3:23 ashort@concentric.net http://www.concentric.net/~ashort/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 11:44:58 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA19228 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 11:44:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peloton.physics.montana.edu (peloton.physics.montana.edu [153.90.192.177]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA19205 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 11:44:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu) Received: from localhost (brett@localhost) by peloton.physics.montana.edu (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id MAA00311; Wed, 13 May 1998 12:44:01 -0600 (MDT) (envelope-from brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu) Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 12:44:01 -0600 (MDT) From: Brett Taylor To: Dennis Tenn cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: AfterStep 1.4.x In-Reply-To: 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 Sigh...

Yes - there are a number of apps that fail out of the box due to linux centered code. I've made a port of 1.4.5.3 and submitted it but it hasn't been committed yet.

For some reason the makefile tries to MAKE the html docs when they're sitting there. sgml2html is a utility to convert sgml docs to html. It's available in the ports (/usr/ports/textproc) and we (FreeBSD) use it to make the docs for FreeBSD. > I just noticed a 1.4.5.55 and will try that one soon. DON'T!

There's not a lot of functionality difference between 1.0 and 1.4.* as far as I can tell - there IS a great deal of ease however in configuration in the 1.4.* versions. ********************************************************* Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 11:46:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA19777 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 11:46:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from 12.64.2.62 (62.san-francisco-03.ca.dial-access.att.net [12.64.2.62]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA19592; Wed, 13 May 1998 11:46:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from trinity@my-office.com) Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 11:46:07 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199805131846.LAA19592@hub.freebsd.org> From: trinity@my-office.com To: INTERNET, ASSOCIATE@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FREE WEBSITE & BAHAMAS CRUISE!

Hmm. this is troubling. I can imagine two sources of problems. In the previous message, I really intended to imply that /all/ the ttyXX lines be made secure. Perhaps sysinstall is using more than one pty? This doesn't sound very likely to me. Another possibility is that the terminal emulation that the W95 uses is somehow wrong, and the "curses" interface of sysinstall is unhappy with it. After loggin in to the BSD box, what does BSD think your terminal is? (echo $TERM) I don't have a w95 machine to try to duplicate your problem with, sorry. Using telnet to a FreeBSD machine seems to work fine with the setup I have. When logging into the BSD box, does the vi editor work as expected? That is a good test of terminal emulation.

These segments are more like files than anything else -- global resources that may be accessed by any process on the system, subject to permissions. [An extension to the semantics on some OS's allows access from different machines over a network]. Unlike files, they only live from boot to boot. shmctl can be used to make them have the delete-when-unreferenced property, if that's what your app. needs, using IPC_RMID. Similar remarks apply to SysV semaphores and message queues. Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Zber Qnrzbaf, Srjre Qrivyf!

(which history has shown doesn't work anyway) and how do i get around it ? 2) another problem is that i can't change a users home directory. if i change it to something different and log in i'm sent to "/". changing the password of that user overwrites my changes that i made to /etc/passwd and /etc/master.passwd and replaces the home directory entry with the old one. 3) last but not least ... is there a way to search the old digests of the freebsd mailing lists ? the sun administrators list is a great example of how to do that: http://www.dataman.nl/cgi-bin/sunmanagers I had to manage a network of sun computers for some time and this searchengine saved me at least a year of my life. half a year that i would have spent searching other places and half a year that i would have died earlier because of stress and frustration with that closed system :-) thanx for your help -heinrich please send a cc of your reply to heinrich@null.net because i'm not subscribed to this list. -- Heinrich Langos pgp: "finger -l hl6@irz.inf.tu-dresden.de" ______________________________________________________________________ |o| The reason we come up with new versions is not to fix bugs. |o| |o| It's absolutely not.

I got it up and running within a few hours of your mail. And I am _*VERY*_ happy with the performance and flexability of the FreeBSD networking and ppp program. Only two other questions. IIRC there was a way to have pppd under linux to do a keepalive. Is this possible for ppp? As I want to keep a permanent connection as much as possible, with the least amount of extra programs being run (I had a keepup program written to dial and maintain the link in linux, but had many problems...). Second, I read the "academic" section of the ppp primer and it set up a working DNS system. This works nicely and I have no problems... for the local machine (eg. 127.0.0.1). The problem is that it complains that 192.168.1.1 does not have a valid DNS entry, but it works. using nameserver 127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf works fine. using server 192.168.1.1 in nslookup works beautifully, but nameserver 192.168.1.1 fails. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

This is the expected behavior. Rewrite the process to check on the same token/key value for existing shm segments when opening/creating the shm.

Well you can set the ppp daemon to do this it can be set to redial immediatly if it loses connection, and to try never hang up. the old RTFM thing, I'm afraid :-) I don't do that so I can't remember the details julian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 13:12:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA06533 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 13:12:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peedub.muc.de (newpc.muc.ditec.de [194.120.126.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA06480 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 13:12:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from garyj@peedub.muc.de) Received: from peedub.muc.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by peedub.muc.de (8.8.8/8.6.9) with ESMTP id WAA05187; Wed, 13 May 1998 22:12:09 +0200 (CEST) Message-Id: <199805132012.WAA05187@peedub.muc.de> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.1 12/23/97 To: Sebastian Boeser cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD and ISDNCards Reply-To: Gary Jennejohn In-reply-to: Your message of "Wed, 13 May 1998 15:06:43 +0200." <199805131306.PAA04183@sunstud2.mathematik.tu-muenchen.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 22:12:08 +0200 From: Gary Jennejohn Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id NAA06509 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sebastian Boeser writes: >Hello, >i just want to know, wether FreeBSD supports my Fritz!ISDN Card, or wich other > >ISDN cards are supported instead. > ISDN questions should go to freebsd-isdn@freebsd.org (Cc'd to there) >From the README for isdn4bsd (you asked for it :) 4.

Now I have Windows95 for about 1.5 gb and FreeBSD 2.2.2 for about .5 gb on the original 2gb hard drive, now the master, and nothing on the unformatted 4gb drive, the slave. The BIOS and Booteasy see the second drive, Windows95 does not, FreeBSD 2.2.2 does and sees it as being twice the size of the first. I am hoping to partition the 4gb drive in half and put FreeBSD 2.2.5 and NT on each half, and once this is successful, remove the partition from the first hard drive allowing Windows95 the full 2gb. That way I hope to have 3 operating systems each with 2gb of hard-drive space. I have the 2.2.5 CDROMs, and a CD-ROM and 3 floppies for NT. Does it matter which half of the second drive FreeBSD and NT get? Does it matter which is installed first? Can I be confident that removing the partition on the first drive will destroy the 2.2.2 data and not the Windows95 data? Any suggestions?

The Numbering Scheme Explained: 2 .2 .6 ^ major rev ^ branch ^ version The major rev is bumped for highly significant events. The branch is bumped for fairly major acrhitectural changes. The version is bumped for each release along the branch. FreeBSD has a history of releasing version .0 as the first in the branch, and minor variations/fixes are released as .1, .2, etc. The next release with changes is usually .5, and it follows from there. IT's pretty organized except for the versions, they are either sequential or bump to the next 5. :) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 14:36:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA21923 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 14:36:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA21874 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 14:36:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA01768; Wed, 13 May 1998 14:36:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 14:36:05 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: "Paul T.

I think that the FreeBSD policy of using more swap is more effective than trying to conserve it at the expense of RAM. What that means though is that one must be liberal with swap space allocations. In FreeBSD-current we have tightened things up a little bit more, but still the policy stands.

I actually copied the quota binary to the cgi-bin directory, renaming it 'ckquota' -- mainly so that I could mess with it without breaking the original copy. The CGI interface is working correctly, as far as it goes. If I ask it for user "www"'s quotas, it'll show them to me (because I have Apache running in its own account, named "www"). If I ask for any other user's quotas, I get an empty document returned, and a line in my httpd-error.log like this: ckquota: skb (uid 1001): permission denied Which is quite in line with what the quota(1) man page says should happen. So adding the setuid bit to ckquota hasn't changed its behavior at all. Incidentally, ckquota is owned by "root:www". I'm lost. I thought I understood how setuid stuff worked, but I'm having doubts... -Scott To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 15:16:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA29559 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 15:16:34 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from castor.loco.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA29491 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 15:16:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from listread@bedford.net) Received: (from listread@localhost) by castor.loco.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA07148; Wed, 13 May 1998 18:00:36 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from listread) Message-Id: <199805132200.SAA07148@castor.loco.net> Subject: Re: renaming of usernames and homedirectories In-Reply-To: <199805131953.VAA16206@zaphod.wh9.tu-dresden.de> from Heinrich Langos at "May 13, 98 09:53:13 pm" To: heinrich@zaphod.wh9.tu-dresden.de (Heinrich Langos) Date: Wed, 13 May 1998 18:00:36 -0400 (EDT) Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-to: djv@bedford.net From: CyberPeasant X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (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 Heinrich Langos wrote: > Hi > > first of all i have to admit that i'm a linux user so some of the concepts > of freebsd look a little strange to me. now i'm stuck with a system that i > have to maintain as long as the owner is ill. > > 1) > how do I rename a user in FreeBSD 2.2.5 on linux i just go and change his > name in /etc/passwd and maybe even in /etc/shadowpasswd and thats it.

Use vipw Use chpass Also, the dir has to exist. Sometimes it's easy to overlook creating the new home dir. If the homedir doesn't exist (or is not at least searchable by the user), I don't think you'll get cd'd there on login. Hence you get sent to /.) Actually, I'm willing to guess that chpass is (correctly) undoing the damage done to /etc/passwd by unsynchronized editing. Vipw, chpass, passwd, et al, run pwd_mkdb to synchronize the four files. Have a look at pwd_mkdb(8) on the BSD system. IIRC, there's something like it on Linux. (pwd_ck ? ckpwd? Memory fails... it's a utility to verify that passwd and shadow are synchronized). Hmm I thought that at least /some/ linuxes used a pwd.db spwd.db database, too. Never edit /etc/passwd or master.passwd or [linux] shadow directly. All bets are off if the BSD machine is running NIS. I don't know squat about NIS. Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Zber Qnrzbaf, Srjre Qrivyf!

Below has more information, I hope someone can help :) When I changed the line card "Xircom" "CreditCard Modem CM-56T" to card "Xircom" "CreditCard Ethernet" I got a message couldn't find Xircom in database(or something like that). And then i said cardd : vers: CreditCard Modem CM-56T. So I could see that it was reading the card, and it knows about it. I knows when i remove the card and when i put it in. But when i put it in, i get a message cardd[45] : Resource allocation failure for Xircom. I messed with the irq's but i don't think that this is the problem. Anyone that could help with this problem, or anyone that has setup a Xircom CreditCard Modem CM-56T could you please contact me. I would really like the setup this darn card. :) Below are my pccard.conf, and my kernel.

Very nice. Correct. They fixed the 64MB BIOS limit problems some time ago. They're correct in 2.2.6, now that I come to think of it (I installed a GENERIC 2.2.6 kernel on the new machine with 160 MB of memory, and it finds it all and works fine).

Thanks again. Sure, you can run just about any X application on FreeBSD. Think network: the server runs on a FreeBSD machine, the application runs in an environment that can support it. As a result, you can run Sun, SGI, HP or DEC X clients and display on a FreeBSD machine. Apart from that, of course, the same constraints apply for X as they do for other programs. FreeBSD will run native programs and most BSDI programs with no preparation, Linux and SCO COFF (iBCS2) programs with appropriate setup. X clients don't use any specific kernel functions, so most Linux X clients will run on FreeBSD.

(Not a dictionary attack on user passwords, but the cipher itself.) To get around it just don't even install DES or the like to begin with. I don't recommend it. Security is a puzzle. You don't want to give away any pieces if you can help it.

Maybe they would stick with FreeBSD if there is a native version of Oracle Server available for this platform! Just sharing my toughts. Best regards, Victor Carranza P.S.

This is true for "everything", X or not, with the exception of interpreted languages like perl, java or [shudder] basic. On the good side, these apps typically configure and compile on F'bsd with a minimum of fuss. for the standard ones, /no fuss at all/.

The original disk was partitioned thus: 1. Drive C: FAT 255MB Primary 2. Boot Manager (OS/2) 4MB Primary 3. FreeBSD UFS 512MB Primary 4. Extended DOS 2GB Extended (2 logical drives - one HPFS, one NTFS) FreeBSD's partition is /dev/rwd0s3. To create the extra space I used Partition Magic to shrink the HPFS & NTFS logical drives and the Extended partition they live in. I deleted the Boot Manager (cause of the 4 partition limit). This left 600MB after the FreeBSD partition: 1. Drive C: 255MB 2. FreeBSD 512MB 3. Unused 600MB 4. Extended 1.5GB The problem is when I try to create a slice in the free space it becomes wd0s2 which means that the slice numbers for the 2 FReeBSD partitions are the wrong way round to the order they are on the disk. I've tried deleting the wd0s2 & rwd0s2 device nodes, but to no avail. FreeBSD's FDISK reports partition 2 as the empty one & 3 as the existing one. On exiting sysinstall all commands give a "Invalid argument" error, including halt, sync & reboot so I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot and the computer won't reboot, it gives an "Invalid Partition Table" error. Booting from OS/2 floppy and running FDISK reveals _both_ FreeBSD partitions flagged "startable"!!. I change this so Drive C is startable and can then reboot but now trying to start FreeBSD gives "Partition Empty". The only solution is to use FDISK or Partition Magic to delete the new partition nad then FreeBSD will boot (but I need to fsck the disk as it was't unmounted properly). BTW I boot using the NT boot loader with a BOOTSECT.BSD file created by dd'ing the 1st sector of wd0s3, as per the FAQ. The bottom line appears to be that FreeBSD needs the slice numbers to be consistent with the physical order of the slices on the disk. Is what I am trying to achieve impossible? I've trawled through the mail archives and tried various suggestions found there, although none of them addresssed this particular situation. Can anyone help? All I want is to create a single UFS slice that will be mounted on the existing FS on /usr/radan TIA Mark Ovens CNC Apps Engineer Radan Computational Ltd, Bath, England FreeBSD - what Windows wants to be when it grows up To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 18:47:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA06816 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 18:47:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from implode.root.com (implode.root.com [198.145.90.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA06797 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 18:47:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from root@implode.root.com) Received: from implode.root.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by implode.root.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id SAA17109; Wed, 13 May 1998 18:45:10 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199805140145.SAA17109@implode.root.com> To: spork cc: Stefan Molnar , perl , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: AMD K6 with FreeBSD???

Very nice. Jordan kept complaining to me that it wasn't automatic and begged me to fix it, even if the fix was sort of a kludge. So I implemented a simple speculative memory probe.

Not really, except that you could end up with master.passwd in an invalid state if you change it and your pwd_mkdb doesn't work, and it's somewhat more typing. Basically, this is just what vipw does, so there's no good reason not to use it. I'm usually a pretty dyed-in-the-wool user of basic utilities, but I use vipw.

The systems I help administer have from 100 to 1000 users. Chances are little that this will happen. However, if a system has tens of thousands of users, this could be very annyoing. I don't like using these tools because when I used to use System V, they either didn't exist, or had a much different interface. The master.passwd file format is the same as AT7T UNIX Version 1, so I can login as root to any UNIX system, and be familiar with the file.

I went to the '/usr/ports/mail/pine' directory and typed 'make install'. It was installing just fine, so I thought. Suddenly it stoped giving me some error codes? I then proceded to do a 'make reinstall'. Still it gave up at the same place! My system: 486DX2/66 w/ 32 Megs of RAM and plenty of harddrive space free. FreeBSD 2.1.7.1-RELEASE (Kernel Developer Install) I have included the output file of a make reinstall. The output was obtained by the following command line: 'make reinstall > prob.txt' (NOTE: <-- this make reinstall was the second time I ran it...) NOTE2: I can still run pine as is but I am wondering if it was properly installed Thank you for all your help.

Subject: Strange username questions... 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 We are migrating our mail server from a single Linux box to a (we hope) freebsd cluster. We are running into two problems, one of which I think we have solved by looking at the archives. First, we have the need for greater than 8 character usernames; we have over 9500 accounts, and many _already_ have usernames > 8 chars, and we can't change them. But, I saw the notes on -CURRENT, etc., and I think we can accomplish this feat. However, we found something else interesting. Unlike Linux, FreeBSD appears that it can't have '.'s (meaning PERIODS) in usernames; for instance: Don't worry about mistakes. I will give you the chance later to correct any input. Enter username [a-z0-9_-]: al.test Wrong username. Please use only lowercase characters or digits Hrmph. So, my question is, why? Is there a reason that '.'s can't be in the username? So, as a hacked-to-pieces test, I added a user 'joe', then vipw'ed, and changed his username to joe.test, which has worked OK in my limited testing (15 minutes) so far. I'd *love* comments. I think I am subscribed to this list, but I am not sure; please do me the courtesy of replying to alex@nac.net also. Thanks! As an aside and a PS, I would like to thank you guys for the excellent work you are doing on this fine OS; IMHO FreeBSD is by far one of the best Unices available, and it has proven to us to be highly stable and robust. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

Chances are that you'd have a much easier time doing an installation from CDRom. It'll also be faster, and if you order from cheap bytes (www.cheap-bytes.com, iirc), it'll be cheaper. It might be better to throw down the $$ for the walnut creek edition, which contains an installation manual. I'd imagine an installation over modem would be quite a tedious exercise in patience. -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed May 13 22:12:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA08116 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 13 May 1998 22:12:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from stratos.net (pm3-6-7.stratos.net [207.86.133.71]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA08018 for ; Wed, 13 May 1998 22:11:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from drifter@stratos.net) From: drifter@stratos.net Received: from stratos.net (localhost.net [127.0.0.1]) by stratos.net (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id AAA00788; Thu, 14 May 1998 00:17:14 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199805140417.AAA00788@stratos.net> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0zeta 7/24/97 To: ben@rosengart.com cc: Doug White , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: odd behavior of zsh In-reply-to: Your message of "Mon, 11 May 1998 14:07:34 EDT."

When I was using 2.2.5, I had this chronic problem where when I was in vi, on the shell line, or in other curses-type programs (though not always using curses), the arrow keys would often "stick." That is, if you pressed the key, nothing would happen. You would have to hit ESC, then (in vi) you would hear a beep (indicating that it wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary). When I upgraded to 2.2.6, it all seem to go away (for a while). Now it's back. (But not as often.) It's a very annoying (and very vague) problem. You have to hit ESC every once in a while...

The term "final configuration" is not quite useful in this context. The boot floppy (once you get PPP working) will leave you with a fully functioning FreeBSD operating system. You need to do _nothing_ else. That is, you need to do nothing else if there is nothing that you want to do. :) Your next step will probably be to install some software. Maybe you want to install pine/pico for email and text editing. Maybe you want to install netscape navigator or star office. If you are really motivated you may compile your first custom kernel.

Use of vipw, chfn, passwd, and related tools lock the databases, preventing problems.: Suppose root edits master.passwd with vi [no locking]. While root is editing, user changes something with chfn. User is told "ok" by chfn. User exits chfn. (chfn runs pwd_mkdb on user's behalf). Then root exits vi, runs pwd_mkdb --> user's changes disappear. Had root been using vipw, user would have been told: [user@box user]# chfn chfn: the password db file is busy [user@box user]# Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Zber Qnrzbaf, Srjre Qrivyf!

Running vipw is basically the same as running (in csh) umask 022 cp /etc/master.passwd /etc/magic-temporary-name $EDITOR /etc/magic-temporary-name pwd_mkdb /etc/magic-temporary-name So, I don't think that it would look different to you. You edit the same way (and if you don't like vi, just change $EDITOR and use jed or emacs) , but you don't have to run pwd_mkdb, and those irritating races are all locked out, and if you abort, it doesn't run pwd_mkdb.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a machine with a 2940UW and a 2940 in it, and I would like to wire my SCSI drives down so that: sd0 = Controller #0 (which boots the system), ID #0 sd1 = Controller #0 ID #1 ... sd7 = Controller #1 ID #0 sd8 = Controller #1 ID #1 ... The idea is that the system boot's off the 2940UW, and as I'm going to be adding and removing a large number of drives over both the controllers - I don't want sd0 to 'suddenly' get assigned somewhere else - and I'd like the drives sdX number to be dependant on their ID (to avoid the sdX table 'collapsing' when I remove drives from the middle)... To this end I've got: controller scbus0 at ahc0 controller scbus1 at ahc1 disk sd0 at scbus0 target 0 ... disk sd7 at scbus1 target 0 disk sd8 at scbus1 target 1 ... In my kernel config... When I try to config the kernel I get: " caladan# config SMP-CALADAN config: line 78: ahc 1 not defined Warning: sd0 is configured at scbus1 which is not fixed at a single adapter. " I fixed this by adding another line to the config that says: controller ahc1 My questions are: a) Is this going to work? - It would 'appear' to work thus far, but I've not added the drives yet... b) Can anyone think of anything bad that's going to happen if I do this?

It's to speed up access to the db. Security is provided by the whole password-shadowing mechanism. I believe that vipw locks the database files while you are editing, to prevent anyone else from making inconsistent updates. On a single user machine that will probably never happen, but it doesn't hurt to get into good habits. Anyhow, 'vipw' is less to type.....

There are a number of ways: 1. The quick way The `maxusers' kernel parameter controls the static sizing of a number of internal system tables by a complicated formula defined in /sys/conf/param.c. MAXFILES=2*NPROC, this means: each process opens approximately 2 files; NPROC=20+16*MAXUSERS, this means: there is a 20 system processes, and 16 processes for each user. In your case, the maxusers=10, thus, NPROC=180 and MAXFILES=360. So, just increase your ``maxusers'' parameter and recompile the kernel. 2. Tuning After ``config YOUR_KERNEL'', change to /sys/compile/YOUR_KERNEL and edit the formulas in param.c (it is copied to this directory from /sys/conf) for your taste.

The fix for mail.local filling up my / filesystem with tempfiles: (quote Greg): mail.local copies mail messages into /tmp, and a couple of occasions people have received really enormous ones which have caused the root file system to overflow. I've entered a problem report, but here are some solutions: 1. Place /tmp on a file system with *much* more free space. 2. Use ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/mail.local, which implements the fix in point (3). 3. Apply this fix to /usr/src/libexec/mail.local/pathnames.h and do a 'make install' in that directory. --- pathnames.h 1994/05/27 12:39:19 1.1.1.1 +++ pathnames.h 1997/09/09 01:42:38 @@ -34,4 +34,4 @@ */ #include -#define _PATH_LOCTMP "/tmp/local.XXXXXX" +#define _PATH_LOCTMP "/var/tmp/local.XXXXXX" end quote I just don't know what to do now.....

I have a similar configuration where I set up the on-board Adaptec controller be responsible vor scbus2, and have a Symbios card control busses 0 and 1. Works like a charm. The only ceveat I could imagine is that you won't be able to meaningfully use a GENERIC kernel, but this should not hurt too much. What I'm really missing is a way to have the device names for SCSI devices directly reflect their SCSI addresses. I consider it quite painful to have to specify device names for each and every disk I will possibly add in the future in the configuration in order to prevent the symptom called "drive letter mixup". I also think that disk da31 at scbus1 target 14 is not quite intuitive. Maybe we manage to change to a more sensible scheme before CAM hits -current. -Hans To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu May 14 06:30:44 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA28662 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 May 1998 06:30:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from srv01.bigwheel.net (doug@srv01.bigwheel.net [208.197.88.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA28635 for ; Thu, 14 May 1998 06:30:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from doug@srv01.bigwheel.net) Received: (from doug@localhost) by srv01.bigwheel.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) id GAA23365; Thu, 14 May 1998 06:30:28 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 14 May 1998 06:30:28 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199805141330.GAA23365@srv01.bigwheel.net> To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Doug Jolley Subject: ee source Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Can someone please point me to where I can find the source for ee (easy editor)?

It is a reliable server and I have never had any problems.... Until I upgraded to Winsock 2.2 on my machine here. Now any transfers between their server and my PC are VERY slow. Usually about 0.4k/sec. I also have encountered the same problem using Windows 98. (which has also uses winsock 2.2) Most of the time the transfer will eventually time out.

Lyon, Jr. Ph.D. [mailto:DELyonJr@mci2000.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 13, 1998 7:45 PM To: Greg Lehey Subject: RE: RAID Greg, The SCO Virtual Disk Manager is an add-on, layered product that enhances the ability of SCO OpenServer Release 5 to provide flexible configurations of high reliability, high performance data storage. Virtual disks are used to organize data in multi-disk systems. Areas from several discrete hard disks can be assigned to a virtual disk, which is accessible as if it were a single physical disk by applications running on the system. Virtual disks can support partitions larger than a single disk's physical extent. In addition, virtual disks can be organized so that I/O requests are written to an array of disk drives in parallel. This can be used to mirror data (providing increased security against hardware failures), or to stripe data across multiple disks (improving performance). There are several virtual disk types: most are implemented as RAID (redundant array of inexpensive disks) configurations. In this release, RAID configurations 0, 1, 4, 5, 10 and 53 are supported. Disk "pieces" can be assigned to virtual disks as needed. Some virtual disk types can use this facility in the event of a hardware failure. A disk piece is brought online from a spare disk drive kept on hot standby, and the lost data is regenerated from the parity information and data stored on the other drives in the array. This permits an array to keep working at near-optimal performance despite isolated hardware failures. Virtual disks can be administered without taking the system offline, including online reconfiguration, online restore, and online data verification. This capability reduces disk downtime due to storage system reconfiguration and performance tuning. Virtual disks are used to manage data in a more flexible way on systems with multiple hard disks. They are particularly useful for improving the performance of large applications, such as databases, by distributing the data across multiple disks and speeding up disk I/O. Units of virtual disk space look like real disk partitions to programs running on the system, but their characteristics can be changed dynamically using the Virtual Disk Manager. The Virtual Disk Manager adds an additional level of software control to the allocation of data storage. Normally, when applications request some data from the filesystem, the kernel uses the filesystem to discover the disk blocks where the data is stored and returns the data directly. When a virtual disk is in use, the system reads and writes to a virtual disk driver, which in turn manages the physical allocation of data across several disks. This has a number of advantages. A virtual disk can be assembled from a collection of small disks, or pieces of disks, so that rather than providing a set of small partitions they can be used to provide a single large contiguous disk space. Data can be duplicated (``mirrored'') across drives, so that if one drive succumbs to a hardware failure, the system can continue to operate without interruption: by using a technique called ``striping'', data can be read from and written to disks in parallel, significantly improving I/O performance. Etc... This was copied from www.sco.com, Openserver, Virtual Disk Manager pages.

There is a bit of a licensing issue with the new X. I am not sure that FreeBSD has mase any statement regarding it. This is beyond the scope of the question at hand. "FreeBSD-questions" and "questions" are the same address. It is unecessary to send to both addresses. Here is how I would do it. I am unsophisticated though. :) Save all of the pertinent config files such as XSetup_0 and so forth. If you don't even know what these are then you have never changed them. If you never changed them, there is probably no reason to back them up. Use your judgement. Fetch the 3.3.2 port. cd /usr/ports/x11/XFree86 make make install Voila, new X.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.85 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The FreeBSD installation procedure permits you to conduct a bad block scan on an existing FreeBSD partition, and to download the OS into existing slices mounted as /, /var, /usr, etc. If you don't create new file systems on these slices, but rely on newfs executed *before* the bad block scan, do you risk compromising the integrity of the slice? I fell into this trap when I reinstalled (rather than upgrading) on top of an existing installation. I've been suffering from unexplained lock-ups and rebooting. I'm wondering if this is the result of the bad block scan (which did detect bad sectors) messing up the partition file systems. Should the installation procedure compel making new file systems after a bad block scan? lsmarso@panix.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu May 14 13:58:04 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA10273 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 May 1998 13:58:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dfw-ix3.ix.netcom.com (dfw-ix3.ix.netcom.com [206.214.98.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA10153 for ; Thu, 14 May 1998 13:57:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Bread101@ix.netcom.com) From: Bread101@ix.netcom.com Received: (from smap@localhost) by dfw-ix3.ix.netcom.com (8.8.4/8.8.4) id PAA16856 for ; Thu, 14 May 1998 15:57:27 -0500 (CDT) Received: from sjx-ca10-29.ix.netcom.com(199.182.128.93) by dfw-ix3.ix.netcom.com via smap (V1.3) id rma016837; Thu May 14 15:57:07 1998 Message-ID: <355B6897.253F@ix.netcom.com> Date: Thu, 14 May 1998 13:56:39 -0800 Reply-To: Bread101@ix.netcom.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01 (Macintosh; I; 68K) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: freebsd floppy commands Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am a unix student and have just installed FreeBSD at home.

If you're cdrom is effectivly mounted on /dev/wcd0c then try: mount -vrt cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom If you want to play it safe, try this, it will do anything but the system call, just to see what's going on... mount -dvrt cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom These will mount your cdrom on /cdrom.

I'd say that the principle is to keep the code free and the apps free. I don't know and/or don't care wether commercial software is better, it's the principle behind it that sucks. This fits in the illusion that nobody will get a job done if it's for free. D*mn it! We're humans! We got to help each other, not profit of each other.

Since I get my ppp connection up, user ppp is causing me some problems... I already posted some questions about these but got no or answers rather out of range. When I boot up, I get a ppp daemon running in bkgnd. (ppp -auto provider) Now, it's working fine alright, and I can use other comm software until I awake ppp for the first time (via lynx or ftp, or ...). After ppp is awaken, I can't get it to let the line loose. Sometimes it's starting without reasons, sometimes just after I disconnect it, always when I start Pine, not when I use mail, sometimes when I start minicom... (nice little song uuh?:) When I use minicom, ppp tries to connect, and minicom can't do nothing but watch text pass by and ppp shouting. Shouldn't minicom get a lock on the modem or something like this? Pine is another bug. I haven't set it to check mail on the remote (I use fetchmail) specially cause I wanted to read my mail without getting on the phone line... What's causing this? I have a disconnect script to shut up ppp, and it's doing its job. When I use it, I hear the modem hanging up. It looks like this: ------------------------------------------------------ #! /bin/sh # Disconnects from the internet exec /usr/local/bin/fetchmail --quit exec pppctl /var/run/internet set timeout 300\; close ------------------------------------------------------- I think I've found this in the handbook. The fetchmail stuff is my adding. I got to kill the ppp daemon via top in order to free my phone line. This is extremely bugging, any suggestion is welcome.

Ah. It looks like I missed out the vital step. Sorry about that. The program you want is 'patch'. Do this: 1. Put the patch on the machine somewhere. In this example, it's i in /tmp/patch. 2. Enter this: # cd /usr/src/libexec/mail.local # patch < /tmp/patch As Thierry observes, this particular patch is simple enough that you could do it by hand, but in general it's better to use patch.

It looks like somebody has sent you an *enormous* mail message (well over 50 MB). The problem with mail.local is that it copies the message from /var/spool/mqueue to (now) /var/tmp. You have two possibilities: 1. Move it again, this time to /usr (I see you have enough space there :-) 2. Go through /var/spool/mail and locate the large message, and delete it. You can also set up sendmail to automatically reject messages which are larger than a certain value by setting the M= equate for the mailer. I'd go for the 1MB range.

This is new to me. I would have said that strptime is correct, and the idea of re-interpreting "02" worries me. Can you give me a URL, please?

Thank you all for your help. I intalled Windows NT and FreeBSD 2.2.5 on the new drive, and still have 2.2.2 and Windows95 on the first hard drive. I have two questions: Where do I name my machine? I may have had a chance to do so in the sysinstall. Is there some way I can do it from the command-line? I tried running the make-hostname script in /etc/namedb but I didn't have permission to do so. I figured that if root can't do it, it's meant to be done some other way. Once I have 2.2.5 configured well enough, I won't need the .5 gb of hard drive space that 2.2.2 is now occupying. I would like to give the space back to Windows95. I could delete the partition with fdisk, either from DOS or /stand/sysinstall (couldn't I?). Is there any way I could give the space back to my C: drive without backing up the C: drive, deleting the C: drive's partition, re-creating it at the new size and re-installing everything?. This is the reverse of the situation described by Antoine BEAUPRE yesterday. I am hoping that the soluction might be simpler than it would be going the other way.

I've probably just neglected a step > in the configuration process. Listed below is the steps I've taken so far. I'm pretty sure you can't. Certainly the serial console is a FreeBSD function, not a BIOS function, so it can't work until FreeBSD is in control of the machine. All messages before the "boot:" prompt are created by the BIOS. The boot: message itself is an uncertain case. It comes from the bootstrap, technically not part of FreeBSD, though it's supplied with it. The trouble is, when it starts it can't know where to write to until it reads in the commands, so I don't think it's possible to get it to write to the serial console. I suppose it would be possible to rewrite the bootstrap to always use the serial console, but I don't know of anybody who has done it.

Well, I don't think we're shooting past each other. We just differ in our opinions. Your method (which, as you demonstrate, many share) would work well if you knew the sizes of the system partitions in advance. But that's not normally possible. Let's look at the guidelines in more detail: > The filesystem in 4.4BSD has been reorganized in an effort > to meet several goals: > 1) The root filesystem should be small. > 2) There should be a per-architecture centrally-shareable > read-only /usr filesystem. Now this is new to me. I don't necessarily disagree with read-only /usr, but sharing it implies a faster NFS implementation than we have. > 3) Variable per-machine directories should be concentrated > below a single mount point named /var. OK. > 4) Site-wide machine independent shareable text files > should be separated from architecture specific binary > files and should be concentrated below a single mount > point named /usr/share. I have a basic problem with mounting on a non-root file system, but it looks like I'm outvoted on this one. Apart from that, note that this is a gratuitous additional partition.

The big problem is /usr/local. You have two choices: 1. Mount it as a separate file system. See my comments above. It also doesn't help manage space any better. 2. Put it on /usr. This makes it difficult to install ports (/usr is read-only), and it makes it impossible to determine in advance how big /usr is going to be (most ports install into /usr/local). About the only thing in favour of this scheme is that it allows a read-only /usr with some restrictions. So does including /usr in the root file system. You could achieve all this on a reasonably large disk (1 GB) with two partitions: the root partition, including those parts of /usr which are not intended to be separate file systems, and / (maybe /var), which could include /usr/local and /usr/share.

I have no particular aversion to commercial software. As a student I can buy 10,000 CAD packages for 500 bucks. The only problem is that it is not available in source code for FreeBSD. I would love to see more stuff come out for FreeBSD. High end commercial stuff especially. Oracle, ProEngineer, CATIA. (in my dreams) SGI has some killer graphics apps that I would like to see on FreeBSD. I am averse to using an OS that is not stable and bomards me with adverts and slides in OS upgrades ... yada yada. I just get tired of invasiveness at all turns in society.

Thanks. This looks pretty much the same thing as vinum.

So I have a T1 connection (generous friends at a cafe) they have an NT network. I want to leanr how to setup my own DNS, sendmail, have a HTTPD server and so on.. I guess my question is before I go an download it, is there anything I need to do, or be aware of, besides making sure my hardware is compatible with the kernel.

Unfortunately, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/strptime.html requires that 69-99 refer to 19xx and 00-68 refer to 20xx. I don't like it either, mainly because any date printed as a 2-sigit number is *much* more likely to be in the 1900-1999 range. Birthdates, contract start dates, etc etc. When was the last time you actually needed to store the date 2059 (as opposed to, say 1959)? Wasn't it _after_ all this y2k hoopla, so that you stored it as a 4-digit year anyway? All they are doing in the URL above is extending the permissive persiod for using 2-digit years indefinitely, at the expense of any existing 2-digit data already out there. -Dan "down with 2-digit years" Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu May 14 20:37:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA25004 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 14 May 1998 20:37:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dyson.iquest.net (dyson.iquest.net [198.70.144.127]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA24969 for ; Thu, 14 May 1998 20:36:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from toor@dyson.iquest.net) Received: (from root@localhost) by dyson.iquest.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA00348; Thu, 14 May 1998 22:36:42 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from toor) Message-Id: <199805150336.WAA00348@dyson.iquest.net> Subject: Re: NCOS: Can somebody clarify, please?

You have a touching faith that the majority of commercial software helps anyone "earn a living" apart from stock holders,[1] or that buying a piece of commercial software gives incentive to some cobol charlie in a cubicle in the middle of the desert to "create more and better software". These days, incentives to create software are more likely to be found by the authors of free software. These people either write software as a volunteer activity (where a large part of the incentive is the process of writing it) or, in more and more cases, are hired by software companies to write it. > I do use quite a bit of freeware, thanks to all the gracious authors. > However, I am a capitalist to the bone.

What it's saying is that the partition doesn't appear to contain a file system. Have you repartitioned your disk recently? Are the other partitions on the disk OK? If the answers are "no" and "yes" respectively, you could try this: # fsck -y -b 32 /dev/rwd0s1f This will look at the alternative super block guaranteed to be at block 32.

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 Hi guys, I run a P200MMX with 64Mb RAM, a USR Sportster 33.6k modem and the 2.2.6-STABLE. I've some problems here and I need help. 1) I compiled my kernel with the following options: PPP_DEFLATE, PPP_BSDCOMP, PPP_FILTER. I'm using minicom to dial to my ISP and pppd v2.2.0. I made a options file in the /etc/ppp dir and I used the deflate 12,12 option in this file. The problem is that pppd is not understanding this deflate option... so I'm not using any kind of compression... any help? 2) Most of the times, I connect at 33.600 with my ISP. My ISP has a 1Mbits link and it is fast. The problem is that my 2.2.6 seems to be very slow when I'm doing more than one thing at a time. For example, if I'm doing an ftp in one console and in another one I try to use fetchmail, lynx or try to make a telnet session, it takes an year to connect or even it doesn't connect... I compiled my kernel with maxusers 64 and I didn't change nothing more. I sometimes use Linux on the same computer and this problem doesn't show up, so it's not a hardware problem. I'm using 6 virtual-consoles here. Maybe it's some configuration missing to tune up my FreeBSD... that's all that I want... Use the Internet in all consoles in a real multitasking enviroment without having to wait forever for an application to finish so I can start a new one..:))))) Thanks in advance... I'm learning a lot in this mailing lists... Alessandro.

My Problem is that after some time the apache-server gets into paused mode... The apache is run as chrooted user http.-> limits from default ??? My first thought is that the login.conf limits the resources of the apache.. if so.. what would be the best group to add ?

I've a small problem! When I use the RaPlayer 3.0 frem Real Audion (the version for FreeBSD) it works, but when I try the one for Linux, the RVPlayer 5.0 only some frames appear and whitout sound! What've done these steps: ***Step one*** Make sure the Player has been properly installed: Decompress and untar the downloaded file. A. Change directories to the directory that contains the downloaded file. B. To display the filename of the downloaded file, type: ls C. Type the following command: zcat | tar xvf - where is the name of the downloaded file. The above command decompresses the file and creates a directory called rvplayer5.0 that contains the following files: rvplayer RealPlayer executable libdecdnet.so Codec shared library libra14_4.so Codec shared library libra28_8.so Codec shared library libradnet.so Codec shared library librarv10.so Codec shared library librasipr.so Codec shared library librvcore.so Codec shared library librv10dec.so Codec shared library librvplayer.so Netscape plugin library index.htm Installation and usage document License.txt License agreement Mime.types Setup file for the web browser Mailcap Setup file for the helper apps rvplayer.ad RealPlayer application resource file welcome.rm RealMedia file doc/ Documentation directory RAObserver.class Netscape plugin class RAPlayer.class Netscape plugin class README Introduction file D. Refer to the index.htm file listed above for instructions on proper installation of the Player. E. Verify that the environment is properly set: 1. Close all open applications and terminal windows, and then open a new terminal. 2. Type 'env'. 3. Verify that LD_LIBRARY_PATH contains the rvplayer directory. If not, go back and check the installation procedure. 4. If the player still reports that the codec was not found, copy all the lib*.so files in the rvplayer directory to the /usr/local/lib directory and try again. ***Step two*** If the Player is still not working after you have verified proper installation, verify that you have the correct permissions on the audio device: In order for the RealPlayer 5.0 to function properly, it is essential that the permissions for the audio device are set correctly and that the audio device is functioning correctly. Also, the audio device cannot be shared, so if there are other audio applications running, this may cause an Error 50 or other problems with the Player. You can test the device permissions by playing an .AU audio file with an audio player. Many flavors of UNIX include an audio player utility in the installation. Irix users should have a utility named sfplay. For SunOS/Solaris users, there are audio files to use for testing in the /usr/demo/SOUND/sounds directory, and an audio player, Soundtool, may be found in /usr/demo/SOUND/bin. Other UNIX flavors may or may not have a native audio player. For these machines, try 'cat > /dev/audio' If the audio player does not play the audio file, then try logging in as root to see if you can play an .AU file using Soundtool or your audio player. If you cannot play the .AU file as root, you have a system level audio problem. You should consult with your systems administrator or with Sun Microsystems to find out if your machine is audio equipped. If you can play audio as root, then you most likely have a permissions problem on the audio device files. The file permissions for the audio device files should be set to 777. The audio device files are: /dev/sound/0 /dev/sound/0ctl Check that the permissions are set correctly by typing 'ls -l /dev/sound'. Note that the audio device files may differ from those listed here. Also note that these files may be "soft" linked to the real device files. If your audio files are "soft" links then you need to change the permissions on the file to which the link points. You should consult your systems administrator for assistance on changing the file permissions. ***Step three*** If your permissions are correct and you are able to play the .AU file, but still receive errors or crashes from the Player, try setting the Advanced Preferences to "Disable 16-bit sound". Open the Player, click on View, Preferences, and choose the Advanced tab. Disable 16-bit sound, then click OK at the bottom of the Preferences dialog box to save the change. Older machines, including the SGI Iris and older SunSPARCs (SPARCclassic, SPARC LX, SPARC 1/1+, and SPARC 2/2+) may use an 8-bit, 8 kHz mu-law audio chip. The SoundBlaster and SoundBlaster Pro for Linux machines are also 8-bit devices. Normally, the RealPlayer 5.0 beta auto-detects the capabilities of the audio device, and sets itself accordingly. However, manually disabling 16-bit audio in the RealPlayer 5.0 may or may not solve Error 50 and other problems or errors. Please try these troubleshooting tips and let us know if you are still unable to Play RealAudio/RealVideo clips.

How about in DOS format? If I load it up, can I then reinstall Linux and FreeBSD and have all live happily together? I'm trying to setup a Linux, Win95, and FreeBSD box at home, and am having absolutely no luck with LILO. It keeps destroying my MBR and I'm getting really tired of having to reload Windows so that I at least can get some work done. I haven't tried some of the other boot managers (Sys Commander, BootIt, etc.). I have a Walnut Creek CD of 2.2.6 that I'd like to install, but can't get into it because LILO screwed everything up and now I can't even boot Win95 (I'm writing from work). My earlier Linux installs went great. I just booted from a boot disk. Red Hat 5 doesn't give me that option. Oh well. Thanks for you time!

There's an "experimental" program in the tools/ directory ^^^^^^^^^^^^----> Could someone correct me one that one? (ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.6-RELEASE/tools/) called "presizer" who permits you to move around and resize partitions. Use with caution. You're better (safer) with Partition Magic (commercial). > This is the reverse of the situation described by Antoine BEAUPRE > yesterday. My problem is that these programs are made to resize FAT (16 or 32) partitions.

All you got to do is get yourself a copy of Partition Magic, ( which I have) or Presizer, and enter the new partition size.

I don't have a SparQ but I do have an EZ135 and a SyJet both SCSI and both work just fine on FreeBSD. In general, you should have no problem using them if they are SCSI.

How about in DOS format? If I load it up, can I then reinstall Linux and FreeBSD and have all live happily together? I'm trying to setup a Linux, Win95, and FreeBSD box at home, and am having absolutely no luck with LILO. It keeps destroying my MBR and I'm getting really tired of having to reload Windows so that I at least can get some work done. I haven't tried some of the other boot managers (Sys Commander, BootIt, etc.). I have a Walnut Creek CD of 2.2.6 that I'd like to install, but can't get into it because LILO screwed everything up and now I can't even boot Win95 (I'm writing from work). My earlier Linux installs went great. I just booted from a boot disk. Red Hat 5 doesn't give me that option. Oh well. Thanks for you time!

OK: lets say the others are important. THey will be located at the head of the file. Suppose you /know/ they are, total, less than 1 MB in size. Then to grab the first 1 MB of the file, use dd, as in: dd if=/var/mail/root of=/tmp/somefile bs=1k count=1k Now look at 'somefile' with vi, and work your way down to the start of the bad/big mail; Delete from there to the end of file. then you can rm /var/mail/root, i.e. mv /tmp/somefile /var/mail/root Be certain that the permissions are good! Should be rw-------, owned root.wheel This can also be done with "head", or with "formail" but the dd is straightforward.

How about in DOS format? On the 2.2.5 (so perhaps also 2.2.6) Walnut Creek CD-ROM, there's another boot manager called osbm135.exe, or something similar, which is a self-extracting DOS archive. I think it's on the first disk under /tools or /utils. There is also a more recent beta version, osbmbeta.exe. I haven't used either myself, although I might try them soon. Has anyone used it? How does it compare to BootEasy? If you want to use Boot Easy itself, that's also on the first CD under either /tools or /utils. In either case, read the boot manager's documentation first before using it. > If I load it up, can I then reinstall Linux and FreeBSD and have all > live happily together? I think you might have to install Windows first, then whatever else you are putting in and _then_ the boot manager. So if you want to use Boot Easy then install FreeBSD last. If you want to use osbm135 then (presumably) install all the operating systems first. Ben.

Does anyone know if the Future Domain TMC-1680 is supported? It's an ISA based card and real cheap. I'm running 2.2.5 and hoping to get one of these cards for my SyQuest, Jaz, and CDROM drives. Unfortunately, the product description doesn't contain a chipset listing. :( Thanks.

I see this with Linux, too, for what it it's worth. The problem is that the 33.6Kbps is just a nasty slow tunnel, through which your sports car is trying to speed. Compared to a P200, that modem is almost standing still. Some programs seem to be worse bwith hogs than others. FTP seems to be the worst offender; start an ftp session, and nothing else ever seems (i.e. it takes two minutes ;) to get a packet through. I hope a kernel dude will step forward. It just seems like there's no sharing going on with the ppp channel. Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' Zber Qnrzbaf, Srjre Qrivyf!

How does it compare to BootEasy? I prefer osbs to booteasy. osbs135 gives you the ability to label partitions as you want. osbsbeta, I believe, gives you a ascii window for you boot management. It's configurable as to what partition is default (instead of last booted), whether to switch the active partition flag, and amount of time to wait before starting the default boot. -- This sentence is false.

We have had considerable success in the SPECweb96 server performance tests and hold a number of world server performance records V1.x of our software does support FreeBSD and the next release of our software v3.1 due for commercial release in two weeks, will also support your OS. Thus I was wondering how we would go about joining your Third party vendors partnership program. We have had considerable interest from a number of customers for a version of our software which supports your platform and forming partnership links with yourselves seems the next logical step. I believe we already have a listing on your site, but I was wondering what permission we would require to use your logo on our strategic alliances page, if you could let me know I'd be very grateful. If you need anymore information on our company, please visit http://www.zeustech.net or do not hesitate to contact me directly. Looking forward to your reply.

I've got it connected to a Netgear fast ethernet switch. The switch is set to auto-sense the duplexing mode (though setting it to full-duplex does not seem to change the problem I'm about to describe). Using this configuration, the driver seems to initialise the card correctly. The media is reported as "autoselect (100baseTX )" by ifconfig. If I force a line break (by pulling out a connector), the driver reports: /kernel: de0: link down: cable problem? /kernel: de0: autosense failed: cable problem? ifconfig now reports the media type merely as "autoselect". If I plug the cable back in, ifconfig once again reports the media type as "autoselect (100baseTX )" and the status as "active", BUT the NIC is not functioning. Only when I force an interface reset with "ifconfig de0 down" does the driver report: /kernel: de0: enabling Full Duplex 100baseTX port If I then bring it back up with "ifconfig de0 up", everything works again. So I tried things differently: I forced the media detection with "ifconfig de0 medial 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex". ifconfig now reports the media correctly as "100baseTX status: active". I force a line break and get the same error messages, but ifconfig now reports the interface status as "no carrier". If I plug the line back in, the status _stays_ at "no carrier". The only thing that seems to revive it then is setting the media back to "autoselect", and _then_ bouncing the interface down and back up.

This has got to be one of the most illogical things I have ever read. To claim that people can exercise no claim of property on the results of their hard labour is absurd. If I write a program it exists because *I* had the ability to write it and *I* saw it's potential usefulness, or because *I* simply wanted to write it. If I choose to sell it for profit that is my business and I am entitled to as much money as a free market is willing to pay for it.

Well you're very close to the answer. :) You want to look at the permissions on the device itself this time. For instance on my machine: brw-r----- 1 root operator 19, 0 Apr 11 17:52 /dev/wcd0a brw-r----- 1 root operator 19, 2 Apr 11 17:52 /dev/wcd0c There is always more than one way to do things in unix, you could add read permissions for "other," however what I did was add myself to the operator group. Thsi way I don't have to worry about changing the permissions again after I rebuild the devices next time.

I won't venture to guess the impact of free software philosophy on the global economy--but I admire its intent. That which benefits huamnkind ought to be freely accessible. Now "ought to be" is not the same as "legally bound to be" and we are opening up a crusty canister of philosophical worms in discussing these issues. Now, I wouldn't propose socialism (which is beautiful in theory, but unjust in practice), but I admire the purity and spirit of GNU philosophy. A billion people may disagree.

That's right, you have to be sure to enable all three of the AWE ports in your PnP (boot) config. pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20 as well as, of course, the "main" device: pnp 1 0 os enable irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 > Should there be a /dev/awe0?

In other words, change this: (Internet) ----- |Router| -----LAN----- 200.1.2.0/24 to this: (Internet) ----- |Router| -----LAN----- |FreeBSD| -----LAN----- 200.1.2.0/24 200.1.2.0/24 FreeBSD will have to either bridge or do proxyarp to help hosts on either side reach hosts on the other side. (Is this what arpproxy_all="YES" is for?) Bridging would be preferred so the arp tables have the true MAC address of a host rather than the FreeBSD MAC address for proxies. Mike P.S. I know the new version of drawbridge does this (via bridging) but I want the filtering capabilities of ipfw or IPfilter.

As you know, of course, that there are many distributions or 'flavours' of Linux, e.g. Caldera, Debian, Red Hat etc. All of them can be classified as Linux OS. 2) It seems to me that FreeBSD is like Linux BUT it is not classed together with the Linux distributions. (GNU Public Licensing aside. . .) So if I were to install, learn and use FreeBSD on my PC, am I learning Linux or UNIX or what?!? By using FreeBSD, can I correctly claim that I am learning Linux?? 3) Are there any major technical differences between Linux and FreeBSD? Or was it just the GNU licensing thing that sets them apart? I am somewhat confused. Moreover, Red Hat seemed to be a very popular choice. Should I touch on FreeBSD then? Please advise, Chuck. Thanks.

I have been looking for a powerful personal alternate OS instead of Windows 95. I have heard some good things about your OS and also Linux. (Those are what I have it narrowed down to.) I have heard though, that linux is easier for a Unix newbie, like me, so I was wondering if you think that a expierienced windows user could get along? I have purchased a Linux redhat system from Walnut creek and it would not install, that is why I started getting interested in FreeBSD. So I will either buy a different Linux or get FreeBSD. What can you tell me about it that would apply to personal use and not so much server use? I know that there are quite a few similarities between Linux and FreeBSD. So I would like some insight or opinion on the two in compare and contrast. -- ><((((º> ><((((º> J.O.R.D.A.N.

Your statement is quite sane, and probably reflects the opinions of most people who have to earn a living. It is the ivory-tower academics (only a subset of them) who want to mold the world into the shape that they think is somehow "right." As long as there aren't monopoly influences (or other forms of severe non-linearity), freedom is the best choice. Encumbering the world's software with anti-free licenses (like GPL) does no-one any long-term good. Of course, my idea of freedom is that I can control my inventions with few encumberances that might be imposed by government or previous agreements that I might have entered in to. GPL is such an agreement that entices me to give away one of my very valuable freedoms. Again, working on GPLed code isn't a sin or anything like that, but it is important to understand what the limitations are. -- John | Never try to teach a pig to sing, dyson@freebsd.org | it just makes you look stupid, jdyson@nc.com | and it irritates the pig.

By using FreeBSD, can I correctly claim that I > am learning Linux?? No - Linux and FreeBSD are 2 separate beasties, but still similar. Linux evolved from Minix - Linus created Linux when he wanted to play with Unix but couldn't get the source to BSD (at the time). FreeBSD is developed directly from the BSD source (which was released 2 years after Linus went to work making Linux - I think that time is about right). Learning FreeBSD will help you run Linux in the sense that both are Unix or Unix-like, but Linux is more like SYS V and FreeBSD is obviously more like BSD. As noted there is a difference in licensing philosophy which we DEFINITELY don't need to go into here. > 3) Are there any major technical differences between Linux and FreeBSD? > Or was it just the GNU licensing thing that sets them apart? See above. Linux tends to support more new and lower end hardware. FreeBSD tends to support new stuff, but focuses more on the high end hardware (although most low end hardware works just fine). I won't go into licensing. You would find Linux and FreeBSD very similar for the most part. In terms of technical differences I'll leave those specifics to someone else. I do find that FreeBSD is better under high load situations. The Linux server in the dept tends to bog down under high load whereas I can be doing a make world, running netscape, reading mail, serving web and ftp requests and have 3 or 4 others telnetted into my machine and although it's a little slow to respond, it's still very usable. > I am somewhat confused. Moreover, Red Hat seemed to be a very popular > choice. Should I touch on FreeBSD then? Sure - investigate each. Play around with both and see which one you like better and use it.

It is safe to say that by learning one Un*x system you are learning UNIX. > By using FreeBSD, can I correctly claim that I am learning Linux?? No. Linux is a "UNIX-like" clone developed from scratch by Linus Torvalds. FreeBSD is based off of 4.4BSD. BSD is one of the two major branches of the original UNIX (The other being AT&T derived Unices.) (Technically, the only thing that is UNIX is UNIX (tm).) > 3) Are there any major technical differences between Linux and FreeBSD? > Or was it just the GNU licensing thing that sets them apart? On the first, Yes, for reasons that I'm sure someone else could elaborate on. On the second, no. > I am somewhat confused. Moreover, Red Hat seemed to be a very popular > choice. > Should I touch on FreeBSD then? Yes, Red Hat does seem to be a very popular distribution. Slackware is also. Red Hat is easier to setup and run, whereas Slackware requires that you get your hands dirty (And so some say it's a better first Linux, since it forces you to learn it.) -===================================================================- Jeremy Shaffner JORSM Internet Senior Technical Support Northwest Indiana's Premium jer@jorsm.com Internet Service Provider support@jorsm.com http://www.jorsm.com -===================================================================- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri May 15 14:48:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA11357 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 15 May 1998 14:48:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from portanc.com ([206.74.11.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA11352 for ; Fri, 15 May 1998 14:48:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from david@portanc.com) Received: from portanc.com (hermes [69.0.0.25]) by portanc.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with SMTP id RAA18088 for ; Fri, 15 May 1998 17:47:56 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <355CB80B.41C67EA6@portanc.com> Date: Fri, 15 May 1998 17:47:55 -0400 From: David Edwards X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01 (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 3COM 3c589D Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG How soon will the 3Com 3c589D pcmcia network card be supported for FreeBSD?

The sb device and OPL device are found, but not the sbxvi0 device. From what I can gather this means that I'm left with only 8 bit sound. Here's what I get on boot: sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa sb0: sbxvi0 not found opl0 at 0x388 on isa opl0: Now I see the only thing I can really select on the sbvxi0 device is the drq. I couldn't tell you what a drq is to save my life. IRQ, yep, base address, got it... I've tried a pretty full range to no avail. The sb0 device is at drq 1, and the floppy controller is at 2. As far as I can tell there's no way to set this on the card. Any ideas? The card came from a Packard Bell, and other than an amusing sticker that says "B GRADE", I don't have any info on the manufacturer. Any ideas? Any other info that might be helpful? Might I have better luck with the pcm driver?

Try running make clean all install I generally run ports by doing make all install and not jump to the install step, just ot make sure it builds right before installing it. I installed Pine yesterday so AFAIK the port isn't broken.

Sigh. You've sent this message five or six times and have gotten no reply; that should hint to you that NO ONE KNOWS THE ANSWER. 1. Xircom Ethernet hardware is not supported since Xircom refuses to give out the specs. 2. Do other modems work properly in your machine? On my Digital HiNote 575 it crashes the system when I put *any* modem in it since it's a CardBus chip driver issue.

Yes, and add in some patches. See: http://nest.bistbn.com/~yury/FreeBSD/sio.patch/sio.patch.2.2.5-R for the patch. The patches liberalize the sio probe a bit since your chip doesn't act like a real UART.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. Since going to press, a number of anomalies have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the second edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2. I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org). --- Changes: 5 December 1996 --- Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment. Replace with: If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the following steps: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may end up with two different copies of the sources. --- Changes: 28 November 1996 --- Page 135, second paragraph: replace with In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162), or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0 through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual terminals you need: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys Alternatively, you can do this with mknod: # cd /dev # ls -l ttyv0 crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0 # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3 # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4 # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5 # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6 In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the 12, in this example; it may change from one release to another). You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about major and minor device numbers, see page 160. --- Changes: 20 November 1996 --- Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h as shown. Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still* called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through /dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-) The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on page vi. The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this book. --- Changes: 1 November 1996 --- Major changes: 1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications to the text come as a result: Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives. Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the floppy." The resultant text reads: IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives, are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5 support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as slave device. The installation may or may not work--please let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program (see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38). Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for the third box from the bottom of the page should read: If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette. Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39. If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts, page 29. Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The resultant text should read: Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the system. INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further information). 2. Changes to section on installing a second disk. Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read: When the message Three seconds until format begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that, you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk activity lamp will also not light up, and since the scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on the disk, up to 90 minutes. Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a valid partition table. For example, this happened with a disk formatted for BSD/OS: # scsiformat sd1 MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48 Mode data length: 35 Medium type: 0 Device Specific Parameter: 0 Block descriptor length: 8 Density code: 0 Number of blocks: 2051615 Reserved: 0 Block length: 512 PS: 1 Reserved: 0 Page code: 4 Page length: 22 Number of Cylinders: 1760 Number of Heads: 15 Starting Cylinder-Write Precompensation: 0 Starting Cylinder-Reduced Write Current: 0 Drive Step Rate: 0 Landing Zone Cylinder: 0 Reserved: 0 RPL: 0 Rotational Offset: 0 Reserved: 0 Medium Rotation Rate: 5400 Reserved: 0 Reserved: 0 # fdisk sd1 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 0 is: sysid 255,(BBT (Bad Blocks Table)) start 1023744, size 2108293151 (1029440 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 768/ sector 15/ head 147; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 255 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 101,(Novell Netware 3.xx) start 1646292846, size 1814062195 (885772 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 356/ sector 50/ head 0; end: cyl 256/ sector 50/ head 114 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61 beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 The data for partition 3 is: Looking at the output from dmesg, we see: (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors) sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760 cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615 sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77 = 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the disk. Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic" message to: The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table. Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't surprising. It's also completely harmless. Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* to, but not including the next occurrence of this line. Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet * The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here. Page 178, middle of page: after # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161 insert When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless chicken and egg problem. Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the first line to the example: # newfs /dev/rsd1h Further down the page, the last example should also read # newfs /dev/rsd1h 3. Other changes Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition". Add the text: It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to install from extended partitions. Page 136, bottom: Add the text If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If you're running X, open another window and use su to become root. If you're running in character mode, select another virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're sure you can still access root should you log out. Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add: Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to build the cross-references. Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should read: ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to: lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you can comment out the definitions of the printers which you don't have. Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec 274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller" Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these bugs.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with break- ing into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? ========================================= Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to answer a question =========================== Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending "> " to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ">" and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as "Re: ". If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)". That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge com- puter books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The sec- ond edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this docu- ment: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and under- lining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller-fea- tured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documenta- tion sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a char- acter-mode terminal. o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a bet- ter choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For exam- ple, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript print- er or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each dis- tribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Con- figuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting In- dex, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ After the example at the top of the page, add: If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cdrom/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s $i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my atten- tion. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for exam- ple the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultaneously with- in Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initializa- tion files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding indi- vidual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environ- ment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The lat- est version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file sys- tem. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system as- sumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite un- happy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the de- vice name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your di- rectory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my atten- tion. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel and Suttipan Limanond for finding this one. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DE- FLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the cor- responding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very impor- tant: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

I have a LOT of questions :) Although I would love to have someone who could answer all of these questions for me, I think it would be better if someone could point me to a good source, or several good sources, of information in any format (web, print, email, etc.). For anyone interested in why I have so many questions, I'm putting together an Internet solution at our university to replace a DEC Alpha 3000 and the systems that we are looking at getting are four Dual Pentium II 333Mhz (we'll just use the one processor until a release version of FreeBSD with SMP comes out), 512MB RAM, four 4.5GB UltraWide SCSI drives connected to an Adaptec 3940UW controller, two SMC 10/100 PCI NIC's and 1 8mm SCSI Tape drive to be used among the four systems probably using amanda or a custom solution. Our DEC Alpha will be kept on as a PPP and DNS server and possibly as the Master NIS server. TIA for any leads or information that you can provide.

"Student Guide to Unix" from Harley Hahn was pretty interesting. It had commands for both users and for root. I have one of those "Dummies" guides books, but it's just a command reference book which really helps when you're stuck and are too lazy to read a man page. It tells you stuff about commands (listed in alphabetical order) and what command line options you can use. For the really technical stuff (basically for the programmer) there's that "Design and Implementation for BSD 4.4", but that's already been mentioned. Books on C programming and Perl programming are pretty good reading. There was this book I found in the library that was about C programming but explicitly for Unix systems. It was really neat, but I forgot the name of it. I'll have to check it out and post it later. Anyways, maybe you could add that Harley Hahn book to your list of books on the web page. I think it did talk about BSD systems a bit. If I see any more books around, I'll let ya know. :) Joey Garcia At 04:39 AM 5/16/98 +1000, Sue Blake wrote: > >Not quite, but we are getting ourselves organised :-) >http://www.freebsd.org/newbies.html > >It is meant to be a starting point, a short list of only those resources >most relevant to beginners with little background, to help them to take >control of their own learning right from the start. > >This page will be updated frequently and feedback is always welcome. >Obvious omissions are installation, ppp (update is on its way) and X >(still hunting for very easy material - does it exist??).

I just installed it for the first time from my Walnut Creek CDs and was as smooth as silk. I would also like to thank the FBSD folks for being so active and responsive to the questions in this list. I installed the XFree86 server and I have it configured and running fine. It's running the "TWM" window manager. I would like to try a couple of the other window managers that come with the system. Specifically, I would like to try the MWM and the FVWM. What do I have to do to start these window managers instead of the TWM. I checked the handbook and the XFree86 docs, but I couldn't find any info. BTW, does anyone know what the "T" in "TWM" stands for? Thanks.

My question is this, if I use the Win95 file system (32 bit?), can I still read/write from/to the disk from the FreeBSD world? Or will this nasty warning that Micro$oft is giving come true?

Before switching to FreeBSD I'm used Slackware about a year. Slackware needs more knowledge than RedHat and if you don't know you are forced to learn about it.

[www.portalinc.com]) which is located in Metro Manila, in the Philippines. I recently downloaded a bunch of stuffs from your ftp site... (FreeBSD release 2.2.6 and its almost complete package... including the XFree86) and installed them on one of the PCs here. I have successfully installed and configured the networks and is working very fine now... But the problem is... when I started setting up the Xfree86, it seems that i couldn't make the X server start properly, why is this? BTW, the specs of the computer I have installed FreeBSD into is this: Intel DX4-100 Overdrive 12M Memory A Mouse (Of Course) 2 Seagate IDE Harddisk drive Primary Master 540 Meg Capacity (This is where FreeBSD is installed) Primary Slave 640 Meg Capacity (This is where the FreeBSD sources are and this is DOS Partitioned) 3Com 3C509 Ethernet card S3 Gendac Video card (S3 86C805, 1MB Ram, GENDAC Super-VGA) The thing is, I use the XF86Setup to setup the X Server, I went through the routine of selecting various devices: for the mouse, I chose Microsoft mouse for the keyboard, U.S. Standard, 101 Key for the card, S3 801/805 with S3 Gendac for the monitor, Super VGA 800 X 600 @ 56 Hz for the mode selection, 640 X 480 with 8BPP color depth (I also tried on another session these settings: 800 X 600 8BPP color depth and another on: 800 X 600 16BPP color depth) for the other, I chose the default settings after these, it tried to start the X server and another graphical screen comes out that says I have the options of saving the current screen settings or run 'xvidtune' to allign the sreen. So, as a beginner, I just save the current config and exit (it looks perfectly alligned with the current monitor). Afterwards... it ask me to make an alias of X on a specified directory and the next window tells me that it was successful... afterwards...I shut it down and reboot the PC, after logging in, I type X and then the screen turns into grey with a big X for a cursor inside the screen...and it just stays there for i don't know how long... ( I tried leaving it for 2 hours and when i came back, it is still there, no change in the screen, although the cursor can move around freely,) What had happened? Is it the way i configured it or my devices don't support the settings I gave them? Please advise me on what to do or if you have an online manual regarding this problem, can you please e-mail it back to me, or if you have some documentation about this matter can you please e-mail it to me ... Hoping for your very fast response.... Thanks a lot in advance... - U L Y - mvrck@portalinc.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat May 16 03:52:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA27383 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 16 May 1998 03:52:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from picasso.wcape.school.za (picasso.wcape.school.za [196.21.102.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id DAA27363 for ; Sat, 16 May 1998 03:52:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pvh@leftside.wcape.school.za) Received: from uucp by picasso.wcape.school.za with local-rmail (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0yaeZR-0007jO-00; Sat, 16 May 1998 12:52:05 +0200 Received: from localhost (pvh@localhost) by leftside.wcape.school.za (8.8.4/8.8.4) with SMTP id MAA19613 for ; Sat, 16 May 1998 12:48:56 +0200 (SAT) Date: Sat, 16 May 1998 12:48:55 +0200 (SAT) From: Peter van Heusden To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Suggested configuration of WWW server 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 Hi I am planning to set up a FreeBSD machine to host a number of WWW servers. The config will have to support about 10 different WWW sites (using Apache), and though at present the incoming bandwidth is small (about 1/2 Mbit/second) this might well change in the future. Specifically, I was wondering about the following questions: 1) What is the recommended SCSI controller? The machine will probably have 2 or 3 SCSI disks, and I want to select a controller that works well with FreeBSD. 2) Does it make sense to buy a multi-processor machine? How well does FreeBSD's SMP support work? 3) Are there any specific suggestions for network cards? I want to buy a 100Mbit ethernet card (in case I need to link together this server with others in a server farm at a later date), so any recommendations will be appreciated. 4) Which version of BSD should I use? I'm planning on using 2.2.6, but are there any particular reasons I should consider using 3.0?

I'd like to thank these people that has given me fresh confidence and the knowledge that there are many people from the Linux and FreeBSD groups ready to assist when the going gets tough learning and using UN*X systems, Jeremy Shaffner Brett Taylor Jamie Lawrence 2) Now, I plan to purchase a new hard disk, SOLELY for the purpose of installing and learning Linux and perhaps FreeBSD too. 2.1) Is it advisable to install more than one Linux OS on the same hard disk but on different partitions? E.g. Red Hat, Slackware and FreeBSD on separate partitions. 2.2) Based on above example of the 3 products, how many partitions must I create to install the above three? 2.3) Do I need additional partitions for swap space?

You should start X-Windows by running 'startx', this runs a little script which starts the X-Server (the bit your looking at on your system at the moment), and also loads a couple of terminal windows - and more importantly starts a 'window manager' (the part of the X-System that handles any windows programs create etc.) Try running 'startx' - if that still gives the same result let me know... If it does give the same result try pressing both mouse buttons on the mouse and see if you can get any menus...

It doesn't know anything about windows, starting applications, etc etc. In general, you don't start X by just starting the server. The usual way to start it is with the command "startx". This is a shell script located in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx. Startx does some very essential housekeeping functions, and then calls a program "xinit". xinit starts your server (X itself), and in its default form, opens a couple of terminal windows, the starts a window manager named twm. The window manager is the thing that controls opening, resizing, moving windows around, i.e. is the user interface and "look and feel". Most users prefer a different window manager. Fvwm2 is a popular choice; install the fvwm2 package, and read the fvwm2 man page. To get it started, you will edit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc, the startup script for xinit. The last part of this script, set up to run fvwm2 rather than twm, looks like this on a system of mine: if [ -f /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm2 ]; then exec /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm2 else twm & xclock -geometry 50x50-1+1 & xterm -geometry 80x50+494+51 & xterm -geometry 80x20+494-0 & exec xterm -geometry 80x50+0+0 -name login fi The five lines starting with "twm &" are in the original. man X is interesting reading. Also man Xserver, man startx and man xinit Dave -- <----. mail-to: djv@bedford.net <----|=================================== <----' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat May 16 05:06:08 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA06069 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 16 May 1998 05:06:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA06005; Sat, 16 May 1998 05:05:59 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from listread@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from listread@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA27091; Sat, 16 May 1998 07:19:36 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from listread) Message-Id: <199805161119.HAA27091@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: Newbies run riot at FreeBSD In-Reply-To: <3.0.1.32.19980515215157.0069d288@pacificnet.net> from Joey Garcia at "May 15, 98 09:51:57 pm" To: bear@pacificnet.net (Joey Garcia) Date: Sat, 16 May 1998 07:19:36 -0400 (EDT) Cc: sue@welearn.com.au, freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-to: djv@bedford.net From: CyberPeasant X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (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 Joey Garcia wrote: > > > > There was this book I found in the library that was about C programming but > explicitly for Unix systems.

Stevens "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment." It is a must-read for C programmers who are experienced under other OS's and want to come up to speed in both the Unix style, and Unix system calls. This one is a ***** book. Examples are given in both BSD and SysV. Big, thick, and thorough. The mysteries of fork() explained. How to write a real daemon. etc. etc. A good advertising blurb would be: "How to write real Unix programs." The same author's recent (2nd?) edition of "Unix Network Programming" is another fine book. Again, good for the experienced programmer, but networking newbie. **** Kernighan and Pike's "The Unix Programming Environment" is good for those with less programming experience, and who want to get their feet wet without messing around in other, inferior, OS's with "helpful" "visual" tools. It is introductory in nature, dealing with make, shell commands, some utils like awk, maybe sed, and yacc. **** But Stevens' A.P.U.E. is a real gem.

My pc is a 4x86 with 12M RAM and a trident 90001 card , a 517M hard disk , also a ethernet card installed . I boot up from a floopy disk and install from CD . the following is the install procedure: 1. Use Ms-dos's fdisk to setup a hard disk partrition and install DOS and Windows95 on it . 2. Boot up with windows95 and setup network address, test it , all works fine. 3. boot from freebsd's boot disk 4. create a freebsd partrition using the disk space left by dos setup (250M) 5. install FreeBSD with novice installer option and choose a X user installation. 6. I choose to install a BootManager in order to be able to change my operation environment easily 7. After all files copyed to hard disk and config as the prompt shows I config a static IP address to the system . 8. restart the system , PROBLEM come up! the problems is : First : at the bootmanager's prompt F? , I just can choose F2 to boot up with FreeBSD , it choose F1 to boot Dos , the system hangs . Second : when the freebsd boot up , after it config the ed1 ( ethernet card ) with ifconfig , it shows : ed1: device time out and after I login , I test the internet connection using ping , if I ping 127.0.0.1 and 202.96.98.26 (my card's ip address) , it shows the connection is fine , but if ping some host on our LAN , it always shows: the host is down why ? The Third problem is : when I login and set /usr/X11R6/bin into my path , I use startx to start X windows , it always tell me can not connect to server ,and ask me to use (--) to select a server , I do config the Xfree86 at the setup procedure and at that time the system show the server start up successfully , why ?

If you have installed these packages (mwm and fvwm), you're supposed to have the executables in your /usr/X11R6/bin/ directory.

First of all, I'm concerned that you may be giving up on RedHat too quickly. Both FreeBSD and Linux require a certain amount of determination to work through the grimey details. Most of what you learn installing and using Linux also applies to FreeBSD and vice versa. Unlike with Windows, you usually end up learning something interesting with each hurdle jumped.

Use FreeBSD for the BSD suff, and get a copy of UnixWare from SCO for $20.00 and learn the System V stuff. I would suggest Linux, but it's not BSD or it's not System V it's just Linux, but it is a very good OS for learning about Unix in general. If you are a student, you can call Sun and see if they will sell you a copy of Solaris at a reduced price. Paul Griffith BTW: pickup of copy of Essential System Administration for O'Reilly, it covers BSD, Sys V, and AIX.

(any one). Oh! [light goes on], OK. Thanks. Now I see the disconnect. Specifying an already-attached device to reprobe another device not yet attached seemed so odd it just didn't even register. I just tried this, and this will work for my situation. I have a ZIP on sd0, but unfortunately I have to go dig up a disk to stick in it for "scsi -f /dev/rsd0 -r" not to return "Device not configured". Now that we're on the same page, you may find my trials getting here a bit amusing, and possibly could help me with where I've gone wrong trying to get -p to work (sounds like that's the best option): 1. Earlier in the this thread, you mentioned: |use the scsi -r command. you will need to use it against an already |existing device, e.g. /dev/rsd0 |man 8 scsi By existing, I thought you meant that the special device file existed in /dev). Not that a physical device had been probed and successfully attached to the existing device file (and in the ZIPs case, that a disk had been loaded). 2. In scsi(8), it says this "-r" form of scsi isn't needed in FreeBSD >= 2.1 since "opening a fixed SCSI device has the side effect of reprobing it". When I reopened the wired-down /dev/uk0, no such reprobe/attach seemed to occur -- it was still "Device not configured". 3. scsi(8) goes on to say in the reprobe paragraph: and probing with the bus with the -p option should bring on line any newly found devices. See scsi(4) for a description of fixed scsi devices. a. (nit) scsi(4) didn't even contain the word fixed. b. Following up on -p (mentioned above), scsi(8) also goes on to say: The -p option can be used against the "super scsi" device /dev/scsi/super to probe all devices with a given SCSI lun on a given SCSI bus. The bus can be selected with the -b option and the default is 0. The lun can be selected with the -l option and the default is 0. See scsi(4) for a description of the "super scsi" device. c. It sounded like -p was what I wanted. So to try -p, I built a kernel with SuperSCSI ("su" & "ssc"), but I couldn't figure out how to mknod the "scsi/super" SuperSCSI device. There was no reference to it in MAKEDEV. So I'm not sure how to use -p, or if it still works. Brian Somers mentioned it earlier in this thread I noticed, so I assume there's "some" way to use it. |if not try the device ssc (if you configured it in) After that you can |use uk.. This sounds like it'd be the best option for me (so I don't have to go find a ZIP disk to load into my ZIP drive to be able to use "scsi -r"). So I guess my question here is, what device file path do I specify for the "scsi -p" command line?: # scsi -f /dev/uk0 -p -b 0 -l 6 scsi: unable to open device /dev/uk0: Device not configured # scsi -f /dev/rsd0 -p -b 0 -l 6 scsi: unable to open device /dev/rsd0: Device not configured # cd /dev /dev # sh MAKEDEV ssc ssc - no such device name /dev # sh MAKEDEV scsi/super scsi/super - no such device name /dev # ls -l ssc* scsi/* ls: No match.

There is a DOS (100 MB) and a Windows NT partition (900 MB) up front before the FreeBSD partition (er, slice :-) ), which fills the rest of the drive. When I put this HD into a Pentium system with Adaptec's 2940 SCSI adapter, I can get till the "Boot which partition F1 F3" prompt from the boot manager. As soon as I select one, the problems begin. Windows NT crashes with a blue screen, and FreeBSD doesn't stop printing three numbers in parentheses (apparently some Cylinders/Heads/Sectors numbers) scrolling over the screen. On *both* SCSI adapters, the LBA or "use disk >1 GB" option is *enabled*. I haven't been able to identify this problem in the FreeBSD handbook or FAQ, and the chapters about the MBR and disk geometry didn't help me either. Does anybody know this problem and how to fix it? I wanted to avoid re-installing if possible. Thanks a lot for any hint!

For starters, everything you can do with Linux you can do with FreeBSD. You can even run Linux apps under FreeBSD with emulation. FreeBSD takes great pains to inssure that ported apps work perfectly without complaint on FreeBSD. Installation and application is easy as typing "make" and "make install". I was utterly newbie whenI first installed FreeBSD. I had ZERO troubles getting it installed. I don't mind reading instructions though. If you don't like to read instructions I recommend staying with Win95. If I could do it, so can you. If you run into trouble, mail this list before you give up orget frustrated. We can help.

I heard that there is two version of UNIX : BSD and SVR4. Which one is better, BSD or SVR4 (especially for job career) ? At the risk of drawing fire from the readers here, I will try to answer this one honestly... (1) I have been an ATT Unix person since the early '80s. Of the various ATT flavors produced, my favorite *was* SVR3.0e. Alas, with the days of IP, SVR3 is a goner.... I now admin a bunch of SVR4 boxen. (2) While I am new to the BSD flavor of *nix, I think I've been using FreeBSD 2.2.5R long enough now to state that my opinions here are probably fairly accurate (although as the users here will undoubtably note, I have NOT been using it very long :) (3) Conceptually, SVR4, FBSD, Linux, etc, etc. etc. are *very* close. Learn one and you know the others well enough to "get by". Assuming you know _any_ *nix flavor well, you should be able to reach a reasonable level of proficiency in any other flavor within a couple of weeks to a month or two. (4) The "better" question is little more than flame-bait and fodder for the various jihads you see among the true believers of the various OS's. It really isnt a valid question when comparing *nix boxen. HOWEVER, this does NOT mean there are not differences! Linux based OS's are all individually produced packages, merely based on a common kernel released by Linus Torvalds. What this means is that things DO change from linux to linux, a lot like things changed from unix to unix when ATT was still the owner and licensing authority. Everyone with a source license makes their own package... FreeBSD is at least a ONE package deal. That helps. Also, it is a VERY stable platform. Unfortunately, this stability is (naturally) derived from trade-offs. The biggie here is the hardware for FreeBSD is somewhat limited in comparison to the various Unix, Solaris, Linux, etc. platforms. If your main line of reasoning is to further your career, I would point you to Solaris if you can get it <<< / Flamesuit ON>>>, but if your intent is to learn the *nix internals and design philosophy, I would point you to either a FreeBSD or "Free" Linux platform, based solely on two criteria: (a) If you need to run the biggest and baddest hardware produced to date, stick with Linux - FreeBSD will not do it, and attempting to write the necessary drivers yourself without the requisite background WILL make you crazy... (b) If you want access to the actual *writers* of the OS, or want a high degree of stability (it's always nice to know that the crash was YOUR fault, and not a bug - at least while learning!), then FreeBSD would likely be a good choice for you. If neither of these matter much to you, then Solaris is DEFINITELY your best bet! :) Hope this provides you with the necessary food for thought... J.A.

If that is the case, what you need is SAMBA and RUMBA. SAMBA will let your Win machines see and use your FBSD boxen, while RUMBA will let your FBSD box(es) use your Win platforms. Just an aside: I have used these to excellent effect on heterogenous NT/*nix networks (such as the one here, which has FreeBSD, SVR4, and NT all sharing wires), but I have NOT tried this on 95/98 boxes. In theory it *should* work, BUT, and this is a BIG but, win 95/98 boxes do not support modern authentication methods, to cut to the chase, if you are using 95/98, be VERY careful: your passwords are subject to the original LANMAN hash procedures, which can be easily broken to reveal your passwords by *any* competent 12 year old!

Think of the OS as a taxicab. If I gave you a free taxicab, could you make money with it? Sure. There are taxicab drivers (users), taxicab mechanics (consultants, custom programmers), people who write books about taxicabs, taxicab junkyards, manufacturers of add-on goods, driver-training instructors, the entire taxicab garaging-industry, and so on. Because they're such swell taxicabs, some of the people who make money or have fun with them volunteer to design and make new models. Some of the big taxicab fleets pay the salaries of the volunteers, or allow their "mechanics" to work on new taxis one day a week. (Lots of device drivers (like ethernet) were done this way.) Probably the single largest profitable use of BSD is called - ta-da - the internet. Lots of folks make a living involving FreeBSD and other free software in some way. (I used to work for a very profit-hungry "defense bandit"; but the software I wrote was often available to people at large. When we were doing something proprietary, we were verrrry careful about contract wording and gov't money.) A lot of freeware (BSD,for example), was written on contract for big money; the client or funding agency (often a govt or non-profit institution, like U.C. Berkeley, the FSF...) pay handsome salaries (or stingy graduate fellowships) to the developers, and then release the results to the community at large. Lots and lots of engineering software was developed this way. (Like SPICE, Nastrans, and so on). The X Window System was done with big-bux from a consortium of corporations who wanted the results, and wanted the results shared for sound business reasons. An awful lot of freeware of merit is produced for graduate theses. Dude X gets his degree, we get a virtual memory system or whatever. Free software is a sort of free-will socialism, or a non-market economic activity. The Red Cross is non-profit, too.

Red Hat, Slackware and FreeBSD on separate partitions. FreeBSD isn't Linux. They have separate code bases and histories, and different licenses. There's no good reason to have more than one Linux OS on a machine. They differ only in their installation methods and in what accessories are included. RH and Slack are probably the most popular. RH is probably easiest to install. > 2.2) Based on above example of the 3 products, how many partitions > must I create to install the above three? You will need one DOS partition for BSD; BSD is able to subdivide a DOS style partition. The terminology gets confusing: what you are calling a "partition", BSD calls a slice. BSD calls the subdivisions of a DOS partition (a BSD slice), a "partition". The BSD practice of calling the subdivision of a DOS partition a "partition" is older than MS-DOS or PC computers. (Don't blame BSD, in other words. :) Linux generally uses DOS partitions directly. Typically you will need a minimum of three DOS partitions for Linux, one for /, one for swap, and another for everything else. (typically and generally. You can get away with only one DOS partition for Linux, but this is a linux issue. A good Linux list for these questions is linux-newbie@vger.rutgers.edu, or linux-admin@vger.rutgers.edu). > 2.3) Do I need additional partitions for swap space? > (My PC is a standard Pentium 200 with 64 Mb RAM) You will need space for swap with either OS. about 128MB I would guess without further information. Sharing this space between Linux and BSD is a deep secret, that I don't know about. For BSD, a separate DOS partition (slice) for swap is not needed. (BSD will use its own partition of its own slice). If you're new to Unix, I would say to pick just one OS for now, and would base that decision on what your friends are using. Since you seem to lean towards Linux, I'd say go with RedHat. For BSD you have three free choices, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. For the newbie, FreeBSD has the best "user-friendliness" and easy installation. The other two are aimed more at the experienced user. The 3 BSDs are very close; learning one will mean learning the other two. For the newbie, pick FreeBSD. Once installed, all 3 BSDs are more or less the same. As a newbie, you would have to poke around for quite a while to discover the differences. BSD in general has a slight advantage in that many textbook examples run without change on BSD; with linux there is sometimes a problem.

Don't rely on DOS for this sort of thing. You can check your BIOS setup for the correct settings (including whether they're enabled or disabled :-). The addresses you mention above are correct. You should also have sio0 on irq4, and sio1 on irq3.

The new hard disk is a: Maxtor DiamondMax 2160 Model 84320D4 4.32 gbytes Ultra IDE 8930 cylinders 15 heads 63 sectors however, my BIOS, using logical block addressing, sets the parameters as: 525 cylinders 255 heads 63 sectors I partitioned 3.4 gbytes of the disk, using fdisk, for Win95 and left the remaining 900 megs for FreeBSD. I sucessfully reinstalled Win95, and I was preparing to reinstall FreeBSD 2.2.5 by booting from a FreeBSD floopy. After eliminating conflicts in the kernel, FreeBSD began booting up and probing. During the probing, I noticed that it didn't see the new disk correctly. It saw it as being only something on the order of 1.8 gbytes, not 4.3 gbytes. Then, when trying to set up the FreeBSD slice, sysinstall didn't see any unused space on the disk. So, my questions are these: - Did I not partition the disk correctly? Do I need to specify an "unused" chunk using fdisk? - Will this hard disk work with FreeBSD? I have about 5 more days until my money-back warranty runs out. I'm tempted to just return the dang thing and wait until they get some Western Digital EIDE drives back in... I've not had any trouble with that type/brand. Any ideas out there?

Is there any way I can still make my CD-ROM work with FreeBSD? Also, if I buy one of the newer, unsupported video cards, what can I do to make X-Windows work? I mean, the new card won't be available in the X-Win database list. What can I do? Thanks in advance. Please e-mail me directly. Appreciate the time!

I'm trying to export my /usr/ports directory, but when I attempt to put /usr/ports in my exports file, mountd sends an error to syslog saying that the entry is invalid because it "can't change permissions on /usr/ports". Here is the offending line from /etc/exports: /usr/ports -maproot=0,ro server # (server is my server's hostname) And here are the permissions for /usr/ports: drwxr-xr-x root wheel /usr/ports I can get /usr/src and /usr/obj to export fine, the only difference being that a) they are mounted rw and not ro, and b) their permissions are as follows: drwxr-xr-x bin bin /usr/src #same for /usr/obj I would like to know both a solution and the reason why I am getting this message.

I'm just getting into programming and was pondering installing the FreeBSD on my system because of its supposed solidity as a operating system..But I have a few questions. I recently purchase the PC Upgrade and Repair Bible and it has the 4.4BSD on a cdrom and in the book it says you can get the manual to the operating system from Walnut Creek CDROM.But, I've been there and the only thing there that i can find is the 2.2.6FreeBSD..would that be the same manual?!?...and also it mentions in the book about4.4BSD-Lite but it never really tell which version is on the disc..or are they the same? And also what about the actual UNIX system itself..is the FreeBSD the same system or are the two totally different??..How do you obtain the actual UNIX operating system itself??..I have never seen it for sale anywhere. But anyway my main question was about the manual for the FreeBSD 4.4 and where to get it and if I had the full version on the cdrom that I have in my possession?? I would appreciate your reply and any information you could possibbly help me out with. Thank You Very Much, William Wood.

FreeBSD 2.2.6 is a descendant of 4.4BSD. They just happens to have different versioning ;-) Alex.
