I bought a HP pavilion 8562 machine few days ago. I tried to install freebsd on it. Before I install freebsd, I disabled the plug-n-play in bios. The installation via CDROM worked nicely. However, i can't configure my mouse. HP's mouse is said to be a PS/2 compaitable mouse. So, in sysinstall/mouse, I select type : auto, and port PS/2. When I try to enable the mouse, I move the mouse , the screen will flash and machine sounds running, then it goes back to configure your mouse page with a line: /Kernel: psmintr : out of sync (0008 != 0000) can anyone help me on this ?

The main goals are redundancy and increased load capacity. RFC 2391 "Load Sharing using IP Network Address Translation (LSNAT)" has a good description of the idea. I've got about 150G of information (and growing rapidly) to publish that will live on a raid-5, which we are planning to share to the cluster over NFS on a 100base lan. ------ 100baseT/NFS | raid |--------------------------- ------ | | | | | | -- -- -- |w1| |w2| |w3| -- -- -- | | | | | | ------------------------------- | | -------- | load.b | -------- | | Inet We would initially be using it for balancing http sessions among web servers, but may want to use it for other protocols as well. I thought I read about fbsd being able to do this through natd, but when I looked at the man page for it, I didn't see anything like that. I read about Engelschall's mod_rproxy, but was hoping to find something that operated at the session level, so it wouldn't be protocol specific. Any insights/links/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Exactly my case - but i put ppp -auto AFTER sendmail start... and it hangs for
a while. The solution is - put the name of you local host in /etc/hosts, to
escape DNS lookup.

P.S. Such cases easily can be examinated via ktrace utility.

I have the following in my /etc/hosts file

127.0.0.1             localhost     main.jacobs.household

everything else is comments.

I am running a caching only DNS.

It's mountd that has to be notified about changes in your /etc/exports: kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/mountd.pid) After that, you should do "tail /var/log/messages" to see whether there were any problems with your /etc/exports file.

You don't have to escape the "at" sign or the doublequotes. Something like this works fine as a shell script: #!/bin/sh - serv=nas1 pipes_and_names="|tom|dick|harry" finger @${serv} | egrep "Host${pipes_and_names}" The braces are not necessary in this case, because it is clear where the variable names end. Braces around them are only required when the names are followed by characters that might belong to the variable reference (letters, digits, underscore), or when one of the expansion modifiers is used (for example ${foo:-bar} to insert a default value). Of course, the braces never hurt. You can always use them, just to be safe. In fact, in this case the doublequotes in the egrep command are not necessary either (but they don't hurt either), because the argument does not contain any whitespace. Shell quoting can be a bit tricky if you're not familiar with it. Single quotes can be used to escape the special meaning of _all_ characters, except single quotes themselves (obviously). This means that variable names in single quotes ('$foo') are not expanded. Double quotes escape everything _except_ double quotes, dollar signs (for variable expansion), backslashes and backticks (`) (for command substitution). Inside double quotes, backslashes can be used to escape the special meaning of those characters. Outside of quotes, backslashes can be used to escape all special characters. It is important to know that the shell expands variables first, and _then_ it performs whitespace splitting (tokenizing). That means that you have to use double quotes if you want to use a variable within a single argument that might contain whitespace (spaces, tabs, newlines): VAR="foo bar" ... | grep $VAR --> grep foo bar ... | grep "$VAR" --> grep "foo bar" ... | grep '$VAR' --> grep '$VAR' When you escape the doublequotes with backslashes like this: egrep \"$VAR\" then the double quotes will lose their special meaning and will be given to the egrep command as-is. Thus, the string itself is not quoted, so this also means that whitespace splitting _will_ happen on the string (after expanding any variables). I.e. if $VAR is defined as above, then the first argument to egrep will be "foo and the second argument will be bar" including the doublequotes. This would make egrep search for a file called ``bar"'' and find all occurences of ``"foo'' in it. This is probably not what you want. > Is there a way to do this or must I resort to perl? There's certainly no reason to use perl. In perl, quoting can be even more difficult. :-) The bourne shell only has few rules for quoting and variable expansion. Once you know how they interact with each other, it's not that difficult anymore.

If it's a Latin1 font (ISO 8859-1), then you should use TERM=cons25l1, not cons25. The easiest way to accomplish this is to replace "cons25" by "cons25l1" in your /etc/ttys file (type "kill -HUP 1" to let the change take effect without having to reboot). The log out and log in, and your TERM should be set correctly. > b. when I exit midc & /stand/sysinstall my screen is back to the default > white on black. Sorry, can't help you about this one.

You did WHAT?!? Please excuse me for a minute while I roll on the floor laughing... Sorry. Seriously. If you think that /usr/bin/yes is a dangerous utility that can be used to fill your disk, then you should also chmod 700 a lot of other programs on your system, including /bin/cat, /bin/echo, /bin/dd, /bin/sh and almost everything else. Did you even care to add the -s flag to your syslogd? If you didn't, then you have a nice remote disk filling service... ;-) /usr/bin/yes is a tool that can be used to pipe (repetitive) answers into programs that request user input. For example, imagine there's a program ``foo'' which might ask for one or more confirmations during execution ("Input bratwurst contains unexpected kartoffelknödel -- want me to continue [y/n]?"). If you want to use that program in a script, a cron job, a Makefile or anything like that which is non-interactive, you can use /usr/bin/yes to satisfy those confirmations (like "yes | foo"). Regarding your fear of someone filling the disk: you don't even need any external tool for that. The shell is enough (``echo'' is a built-in command of most shells): while :; do echo hühnersuppe >> foobar; done You cannot really 100% prevent this kind of denial-of-service attack, but there are a few points that help: - Partition your disks in such a way that an attack like that cannot do serious damage. That is, put all user-writable directories on separate partitions (home, /tmp, /var/tmp and possibly others). - Use disk quotas ("apropos quota" should get you started). - Create appropriate usage policies. Make it perfectly clear that any abuse and attacks will result in removal of the offending accounts. If a user wants to run a denial-of-service attack against your machine, he/she will probably not do this by creating large files (except if he/she is a completely clueless idiot). If this happens, you can easily see to whom the big files belong, and ``rm'' and ``vipw'' (or ``rmuser'') are your friends. Having said that, I have to add that it is usually relatively trivial for local users (i.e. users with a shell account) to run denial-of-service attacks. Using disk quotas, process limits etc. are ways to reduce the risk, but there's definitely no 100% reliable way (unless you don't care about the box being usable at all). Making /usr/bin/yes inaccessible is certainly not a good way to do it -- It does not improve security, and it might even break some scripts (e.g. some configure scripts check for ``yes'', for whatever reason). Even OpenBSD has a usable /usr/bin/yes. ;-) Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 26 15:10:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de [139.174.243.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0B29214F26 for ; Sun, 26 Dec 1999 15:10:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) Received: (from olli@localhost) by dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA16849 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 27 Dec 1999 00:10:54 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from olli) Date: Mon, 27 Dec 1999 00:10:54 +0100 (CET) From: Oliver Fromme Message-Id: <199912262310.AAA16849@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Midnight Commander Organization: Administration TU Clausthal Reply-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 RZTUC(3) PL2] Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dan Nelson wrote in list.freebsd-questions: > I think it's becuase 'mc' is too close to 'mv'.

So I made a shell alias mc -> mv (I don't use/have/like Midnight Commander). I also sometimes accidentally type "mf" when I want mv, and then I end up being in TeX's MetaFont... Should make this an alias, too, since I never start MetaFont manually anyway.

How long does it take > to sync the contents? It would probably take an hour or two. The problem here is that you need to start the revive manually, and the state doesn't change. The l -V output will also show that the revive pointer is set to 0. Maybe I need a better name than 'reviving'. 'needs reviving' might be better, but it looks funny in messages like vinum: var.p0 is needs reviving. If anybody has a good suggestion about how to make this less ambiguous, I'm all ears. > Is this correct setup for raid-1 with identical disks? Looks good enough to me, modulo the setupstate keyword.

At least then your dmesg should report a card it can't assign a driver to (if that's whats wrong). It might also help to make sure that your BIOS has the "PnP OS" option set to false (which leaves the BIOS to setup IRQs etc). I generally find that this leaves Windows better off, as IME W95 PnP code can be non-deterministic in its IRQ etc assignment. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

The conversion from Linux to FreeBSD is quite simple... As I asked a few hours ago in this list you have to impor the Linux passwd file in the FreeBSD format. Read the man on the passwd to find a script that can make it for you (at the end of the man): man 5 passwd Then after merging the passwd file you should make a : vipw to make the database happy :-) Beware to not overlap the first accounts on the FreeBSD side: Everything has uin under 1000 is better to leave unchanged... Check /etc/group of the Linux system and apply the users group to the FreeBSD group file. ADD ONLY the users group(s), not the system ones. When you have finished this step look at the /etc/aliases in the linux system and copy the custom ones (the one pertinents to the users only) to FreeBSD aliases file (in /etc too), then do a: newaliases The last step is to copy all the old mail which is in the Linux system (but I don't know where it is) on the /var/mail/ in the FreeBSD box. I used this little perl scripts to assign the user:group to the files. Run it from FreeBSD /var/mail/ after you have copied the mailbox from the linux system. ----> cut here <--- #!/usr/bin/perl foreach $file (<*>) { ($uid)=(getpwnam($file))[2]; ($grp)=(getpwnam($file))[3]; chown($uid,$grp,$file); }; ---> end <---- Good luck...

No. It will just start another copy of the mountd process, leaving the old one hanging around. Sending a SIGHUP to the daemon (using its PID file) is the "canonical" and most portable way to let it re-read its config file. This works for many other daemons, too.

But it's less reliable, and it can be even quite dangerous. For example when there happen to be other processes called "mountd"... In general, I'd advise against using killall. The PID files (in /var/run/pid) _do_ have a reason to exist.

I'am receiving many questions about pppd patch for RADIUS support. So, I decide to make it available via ftp.

Why would you want to do that anyway? It's much more convenient to configure it at runtime using the "tzsetup" tool. And you only have to do that once (unless you move to a different timezone). So what would be the point of hardcoding it in the kernel? Apart from that, the kernel doesn't care about the timezone at all, because it is always running on UTC. As far as I know, it only needs the timezone when accessing local MSDOS filesystems, because they use local (non-UTC) timestamps. This is an ugly hack, but what do you expect from MS stuff... Other than that, timezone information does not belong in the kernel. I'd recommend that you have a look at the adjkerntz(8) manpage, and maybe also read the manpages referenced in its "see also" section. Normally, "tzsetup" is all that you need, once in your computer's life. If you use sysinstall to install FreeBSD on your box, it will even run tzsetup for you, so you don't need it at all afterwards.

The problem is, that default compiler - gcc 2.7.x can't compile any serious C++ program (including OpenCascade of course). I tried to install gcc 2.95 from ports collection, but there's no shared c++ support libs (libstdc++ and libg++) included in the package, only static libstdc++.a. I don't have much experience with BSDs , so I have a question: where can I get complete egcs compiler suite (or gcc 2.95), and how should I install it as default compiler, instead of gcc 2.7.x ?

Hi Jackson, For both questions, plus some nice buttons, have a look at http://www.freebsd.org/gallery/ 975 commercial organizations, including biggies like Yahoo and Microsoft (no, that's no misprint.. software OS giant M$ uses FreeBSD servers for a few important things).. use FreeBSD.

Somebody else may know this better than I, but I would be inclined to think that there would be no problem using other companies' names alongside FreeBSD in a non-slanderous way... Magazine articles, media reports, online publications, etc... have all made reference to some companies using FreeBSD. > Understand?

It seems FreeBSD does not like the user/groups from BSDI. After untaring a sizable file from the BSDI machine on to the FreeBSD machine. All the ownerships were in the form of numbers. And low numbers for that mater. 200 150 300 UID and GID's of that form. Shortly after that the system went down and that drive is basiacly hosed and unusable. When I rebooted the machine fsck could not fix the drive. And at this point I've completely rebuilt the array and tried to reinsert it back into FreeBSD via sysinstall. It will not insert back into the system. I switch to a second terminal to see if there have been any errors while in the fdisk. Here is the error. DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for dev type - Has anyone ever encountered a problem like this? I'm stumped.

The fixit floppy wouldn't let me label the new drive. Of course, I'm not super proficient with disklabel, fdisk and friends, so I'm sure it was a PEBKAC issue. :-) I tried running sysinstall from within the fixit flop. Bad idea. It panicked when I tried to commit the fdisk and label commands. In the end, I did an "Express" minimal install from the install disks, booted into single user and did the restore at that point. I'd love to see some step-by-steps for doing this with the fixit floppy.

I decided not to mess around with chflags since it obviously wasn't working. Instead, I moved /usr/src/games/dm to /tmp, and I commented out the line \ dm in /usr/src/games/Makefile.

Seems like cron uses it to adjust the localtime (in the CMOS clock), if the CMOS is not-UTC. My CMOS is probably set to PST. I've used /stand/sysinstall to set my timezone; also have done it by hand.

After installing FreeBSD and most of the ports I wanted (because some ports create users/groups) I copied across the BSDI master.passwd with a different name, and added group 100 user to the groups file because I knew all the BSDI users had that group. Then I used vipw with a good editor (defaulting to act on the installed FreeBSD master.passwd), went to the bottom of the file, pulled in the old BSDI master.passwd, and deleted the first few lines of the BSDI file (containing users like operator, daemon, ...) plus a couple of high numbered users at the end (nobody, nonroot). Most but not all of those users had equivalents in the FreeBSD password file. Generally, those that were missing would only be required when we were running BSDI. So the master.passwd contained only the system-related users from the FreeBSD installation, plus only the real users from the BSDI system. Save, the password database gets rehashed, and you're in business. All that remains is to pick over the deleted BSDI users and the old groups file for anything essential that might be needed, e.g. I added webmaster and a couple of groups required by users who collaborate, but didn't touch majordomo user/group because our port sets that up (but seeing it there reminded me to install majordomo!). > Shortly after that the system went down and that drive is basiacly hosed > and unusable. > When I rebooted the machine fsck could not fix the drive.

You didn't mount a BSDI drive did you? I tried and got nowhere :-( Did you build a totally FreeBSD system and just incorporate the user data, or did you copy over parts of the BSDI filesystems? The latter could explain your problems. I had to keep reminding myself: This is FreeBSD, it's all new. Apart from restoring /home /mail the ftp site files and the main web docs direcotry, and changing the password file, everything was built fresh.

You have helped me on a Goldstar CD-ROM problem (the system did not recognize it) a couple of weeks ago. By your suggestions, I've managed to solve the problem. I connected it to the middle port of the first IDE as slave and the problem was over! Since then I had time to install kde 1.1.2 package which is much familiar to a person like me who is quite accustommed to Windows environment and configured my "own" kernel with a splash screen (even in VESA mode!), also configured my sound card. It is quite amazing to be able to build a kernel and watch the compilation process even though I don't understand much of it. Now I have some more problems which I hesitated to share with "FreeBSD-questions" because I think those problems should be discussed before. I searched for the topics in www and mail archives but I could not find a practical explanation. Now I decided to ask to you, if you do not mind. 1. I set Turkish keyboard as the first choice in kde. But everytime I logout of kde, I see several lines reporting error about the keyboard: "KiKbd: X11 error: BadWindow (Invaild window parameter). Am I doing something wrong or deficient? 2. I have a modem (Wisecom) capable of 56000 bps data transfer. It is on Com 4 (sio3, cuua3) with an irq 3. I compiled the kernel with the line: "device sio3 at isa? port ....... tty irq3 vector siointr" Then I ran kppp, added a new account. First, modem could not be initialized. I changed the line return option from "CR" to "LF", then to "CR/LF" and overcame the problem. Then modem dialled the number of ISP, I could hear the modems handshaking while "expecting CONNECT" was written in log window, everything arrested again. So far, I have never been able to establish a connection even though I can HEAR a successful handshaking. I changed various parameters including chap, pap, script-based, and connection speed but I could not establish a real coonection. Furthermore, I noticed that everytime I logout and relogin kde, line return option of kde should be manipulated as mentioned above to get a response from the modem. I also noticed an error massage after login out kde reporting "Date+Time /kernel: sio3: 1 more silo overflow (total n). I can easily get connected to my ISPs (I have currently 3) by windows dial-up without any script, just by userID and password written in the dialog. 3. In one of the literature I read, there is a line to add to .xinitrc file for kde: "setenv KDEDIR /usr/local" I wrote it down like this: "setenv /usr/local/bin" where my kde is installed. But there is also an error message reporting "setenv: not found" while starting X. I think I made something wrong. 4 (and the last). I can not run xdm. If I do it, the system halts after a short interval of X session. I know I should prepare an .xsession file, but I don't know where to and how to prepare it. Thank you very much for your patience.

Didn't make a records in utmp/wtmp. This and some number of other issues are fixed by patch. E.g. added check for account expiration, check for /etc/ppp/ppp.deny and ppp.shells, and other FreeBSD-specific stuff which is not required but useful. It all was merged from FreeBSD's pppd-2.3.5 into 2.3.10-radius. Particularly, some IPX stuff. I was not able to test all the magic, so simply move it from one version to another. Main goal was RADIUS for tcp/ip, PAP, dial-in, no callback. > I guess we could just add this to 2.3.11 and be upto date with > pppd finally... I have no time for this now. May be in 2.3.12? :-) AFAIK, there is no significant changes in 2.3.11 from 2.3.10. And I didn't received any feedback about the patches. All I've got was first impressions and not more. So there is no driving motive for me to do it now: 2.3.10 works fine.

That's because "sizeof" is not a library function. It's a C operator. For similar reasons, there are no manual pages on "int" or "while" etc. ;-) I'd recommend that you get a good book on ANSI C, for example "Kernighan / Ritchie" v2.

There are lots of headers, and the kind of error message you get suggests that you're pulling in the wrong header files. It's difficult to be more precise, since you don't say what version of FreeBSD you're running, but you'll probably find that either you haven't updated all of your source tree, or you've somehow managed to pull in some other headers by accident.

Note that these numbers change with the version. In my version (20.4.1) the key binding questions start at 116. The real issue is that the backspace key *is* c-h. One of the more illogical things about GNU Emacs is that Stallman chose to use c-h for a different function than erasing.

I am > getting these sorts of entries on the console for numerous(maybe all) of > the workstations on that network. It most probably means that the host with the IP number 192.216.87.246 has a wrong netmask configured. For example, assume that two hosts A and B are on two different class-C networks, i.e. their "natural" netmask is 255.255.255.0. Then assume that host B has a (wrong) netmask configured which is 255.255.0.0, but it still can reach A because there's a switch or a bridge between them (or something similar) which just forwards the packets. Now when B sends a packet directly to A (without using the default route, because of the wrong netmask), A will add B to its arp table. This normally happens every time the IP stack discovers a "new" host on the network, to save ARP requests. However, the kernel will discover that B is not on its local network (according to the correct netmask), therefore the arp entry is not valid (hosts which are on other networks are only reachable through the default route [or some other route], but not directly, so they cannot have their own arp entries in the arp table of A). This is clearly an error, and so your syslog entry is generated. To fix it, you should correct the netmasks of those hosts. I hope my explanations make some sense to you. :-) Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 27 18:12:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.rdc3.on.home.com (ha1.rdc3.on.home.com [24.2.9.68]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1B02814EBA for ; Mon, 27 Dec 1999 18:12:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from a.genkin@utoronto.ca) Received: from main.wgaf.net ([24.114.152.71]) by mail.rdc3.on.home.com (InterMail v4.01.01.02 201-229-111-106) with ESMTP id <19991228021024.JISW7552.mail.rdc3.on.home.com@main.wgaf.net> for ; Mon, 27 Dec 1999 18:10:24 -0800 Received: from antipode by main.wgaf.net with local (Exim 2.05 #1 (Debian)) id 122m7l-0000jg-00; Mon, 27 Dec 1999 21:12:33 -0500 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: 3.4-S: if_rl & DFE-530TX+ can't map memory or ports References: <386814CF.8F14D119@ma.ultranet.com> X-Face: 0=A/O5-+sE[Tf%X>rYr?Y5LD4,:^'jaJ!4jC&UR*ZrrK2>^`g22Qeb]!:d;}2YJ|Hq"LHdF OX`jWX|AT-WVFQ(TPhFVak)0nt$aEdlOq=1~D,:\z5QlVOrZ2(H,mKg=Xr|'VlHA="r Organization: Wgaf From: Arcady Genkin Date: 27 Dec 1999 21:12:32 -0500 In-Reply-To: "Gregory D.

After that, you should be ready to enable it. You'll find that softupdates makes the filesystem a little more forgiving in the event you should have one of those unclean shutdowns. My only question concerning this would be the enabling of my / partitition... since the slice should be unmounted when you enable it.

In messing around though, I came up with a question that I'm not sure about. Network configuration is: * FreeBSD gateway maintaining an assigned Outside IP * Same box maintains an Inside IP on 192.168.x.x subnet * All inside boxes assigned 192.168.x.x IP's For example, if I want to allow SSH connections only *to* the FreeBSD box, but I want both the FreeBSD and the internal boxes to be able to generate outgoing SSH sessions in the outside world, is the following enough?: # Allow all traffic from inside out $fwcmd add pass all from ${iip} to ${inet}:${imask} $fwcmd add pass all from ${inet}:${imask} to ${iip} # Allow access to SSH $fwcmd add pass any from any to ${oip} 22 setup $fwcmd add pass any from ${oip} to any 22 setup # Allow all established connections to pass $fwcmd add pass tcp from any to any established Also, if I wanted users on the inside network to be able to access external hosts for popmail, but wanted to have popmail disabled on the freebsd server, would the following solve the problem, or would it cause a security hole?: $fwcmd add pass any from ${inet}:${imask} to any 110 via ${oif} setup Thanks in advance!!!

VALUES IN SUPER BLOCK DISAGREE WITH THOSE IN FIRST ALTERNATE." That the disk is swish cheeze.. I can't believe that since these are new drives as of two months ago. I run fsck and it's marked clean and I can mount it. Then on reboot I have to run fsck again to be able to mount it. It's on a RAID-5 array that up to now was working fine. A power failure forced the reboot and from then on fsck dies on boot forcing a manual fsck. Any idea?

This modem does not use any Netowrk Inteface cards to work but has special software and plugs into a ISA port. The only software I have for it will only run on Win98 and is called SCMWatch 1.1.1 Connection Manager made by General Instruments of Deleware. I am unable to find a web site for this software and it only seems available from my ISP. My ISP says they will never support anything other than Win98. They do not support Win95 or NT. If anyone has something I can use to allow me to connect via this interface let me know. It seems to be the only possible interface available where I live other than a 33.6 connection. 56k ISPs are not even avaialble!!!. DSL was quoted to costs $7500+ for installation and a max speed of 144k. All other options are well over my financial means. Any holp in this matter would be greatly appreciated as I have great need of features that only seem to be found in BSD and other Unix like systems.

Uhm... some times ago I have to install a FreeBSD box connected to Internet via a leased line. At the beginning the I was very scared about it (I never saw things like this) but after a while I realized I can treat it like any other modem. The only difference was that I have not to dial and I don't need a login sequence. If you used user ppp ---> ppp.conf: ---> cut here <--- default: set ctsrts on set parity none set server 3000 "" set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set timeout 120 cda0: set dial "" set login set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set timeout 900 set log Phase Chat LQM LCP IPCP CCP tun command set ifaddr 151.99.150.79 151.99.150.15 add default HISADDR set cd off ---> end <--- Teh modem always take the connection open and they have their configuration set in their flash. On the other side there is a Cisco system that provide the autentification, none in our case. I use ppp -nat -ddial cda0 to connect...

Things worked fine (needed to put out a mail server and did not want to wait for my Subscription). At any rate what are the catpages? I did a search on the mail archive and got only one hit from 1997 that basically said that cat pages were accidentely there (in that case) I am sure this is no longer the case. I realize it is documention but what is the relationship to manpages? Also in the Samba 2.0.6 Release the following is in the WHATSNEW.txt: 20). MSG_WAITALL optimisation removed due to bugs in FreeBSD. ^^^^???? They way this sounds is that FreeBSD is full of bugs (at least in the TCP/IP section). I would classify FreeBSD as just the opposite. What do they mean by this? In my mind this would be a "work arround" untill the bug gets fixed, or it only a bug from a point of view? Thanks John John C.

Hmm, the only thing that was there before was the /usr/src/sys , since I've compiled the kernel earlier. So there must be something there from 3.3-RELEASE or 3.0-RELEASE since the first one is the kernel running now, and the later one was what was on it before upgrading to 3.3 I thought that making install.sh sys (in the src directory) made a total upgrading of the sys-src, but from now on I'll delete the old /usr/src/sys before installing the new one. > > I don't consider this a vinum problem.

You should try to switch your parallel port to polled mode (/usr/sbin/lptcontrol, see `man lptcontrol'). I had similar problems in some cases with interrupt-driven mode (default) of the parallel port.

I think it can be done from either the CD or a fixit floppy. But there are many people who believe root should be left alone and run without softupdates, since there should be very few writes to that partition anyway. I decided that makes sense, so my 80 meg root partition has soft-updates disabled, and is mounted to minimize writes. -=> jm <=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 28 6:16:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from probity.mcc.ac.uk (probity.mcc.ac.uk [130.88.200.94]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AE7361538F for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 06:16:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: from dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org ([130.88.200.97]) by probity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #3) id 122xQ3-000BeD-00; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:16:11 +0000 Received: from localhost (jcm@localhost) by dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA72286; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:16:04 GMT (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:16:04 +0000 (GMT) From: Jonathon McKitrick To: "Dave J.

But while doing an make install of /usr/ports/x11/gnome, I got a Bus Error while it was busy in /usr/ports/lang/python Every rebuild it failed on the same spot, until I did a make clean in /usr/ports/lang/python then is finisched ok (probably bad object or binary code created?) Now when running Gnome on my Xterminal I got more Bus Errors... My question: What are Bus Errors? and what can cause bus errors? Bad programming, hardware, OS...? Regards, Ron.

From a getting to know Unix standpoint I'd have to say this book is one of the best. Any investment in O'Reilly literature is most sound and well worth it! Now if you are looking into Unix platform specifics such as freebsd I'd strongly suggest "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey. This bit of literature is clear, concise and wholeheartedly pertinent to the bsd flavored platforms. Of course, there are dozens of books relating to getting to know unix in 30 days, etc. Your preferences in literature will most surely determine your choices as well. I've had both books for quite some time now and they have always been an valuable tool, quick at hand, when I'm in that ever-present pinch... - Bill --------------------------------oOo------------------------------------ William J.

I would like to start with some simple 'hello world' console programs, then move to simple Xwindows. But the build procedure looks very complex, as well as include files for X. On my amiga, makefiles were simple, and i had a separate floppy for each project with a makefile that did everything i needed. But 'make' has gotten quite a bit more complex. -=> jm <=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 28 7: 7:51 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from kitsune.swcp.com (swcp.com [198.59.115.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5D31F15469 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 07:07:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from msommer@argotsoft.com) Received: from argotsoft.com (argotsoft.com [198.59.115.127]) by kitsune.swcp.com (8.8.8/1.2.3) with ESMTP id IAA03143 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 08:07:45 -0700 (MST) Received: from argotsoft.com (luz.argotsoft.com [192.168.3.100]) by argotsoft.com (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id IAA01891 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 08:07:07 -0700 (MST) (envelope-from msommer@argotsoft.com) Message-ID: <3868D21A.6D8E220F@argotsoft.com> Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 08:07:06 -0700 From: "Mark J.

There is so much more you can learn when you actally administrate a machine, rather than just having a user level account. If you royally mess something up, no big deal, as a last resort you can always reload the operating system and learn from your mistake. (Windows NT administration is something like this.) I see you're a student which implies your strapped for cash. I run FreeBSD on a 486-100 with 32 Mb of RAM and have no problems running X. FreeBSD will run with decent performance on machines that would otherwise be relegated to the dumpster. There are a bunch of great web sites for information about FreeBSD. Just to name a few: http://www.freebsd.org http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd http://www.daemonnews.org http://www.ugu.com Once you get your OS up-and-running the command you'll use the most is 'man'.

Ok, you can do it with sysinstall, or with DOS fdisk, with fdisk you have to boot from a DOS floppy and run fdisk, there its an option that says "Make an active partition" or something like that, in sysinstall, in the fdisk section, just select the entry that conforms your partition in the disk, and press "s", then press "w" to write the changes to the disk.

As far as I know there is no support for either internal cable modems or internal DSL modems. Shooting the idiots at your ISP is probably the best option. ;-) On that DSL option, that sounds like IDSL (i.e. DSL with ISDN switching) so you might want to consider ISDN.

If you search the archives, you will find a number of people with the same problem. They all got past it and were able to install FreeBSD. I am going on memory but it seems like most of them had a bad hardware configuration. The CDROM was configured as a slave instead of a primary device. That is a jumper setting on the CDROM. Some may have found that they needed the Primary device to be the HD and have the CDROM as the slave on the primary IDE channel. > > This is my first time using FreeBSD, although I own RedHat Linux 5.2 and 6.1 > and TurboLinux 4.0, and I am "upgrading" to stay "current." Your rapid reply > is appreciated and will prevent me from returning the CompUSA for a refund. I was lucky on my first install because I had someone that had been using *BSD since 386BSD. They helped me through the novice install. I did a Linux install first but it didn't come close to the Unix feel that I had gotten used to over the last 10-12 years and then tried FreeBSD 2.2.8.

Give it a name in your host table and then use that name in your printcap file such as ":rm=psrvr:\". I have an old Brother HL8e that is attached to a printserver called "psrvr". It could have been attached to the FreeBSD system but that caused more problems than it solved. With the printsever, I could print to it from all of my OS'es and not have to worry about downloading softfonts and etc. I have a small script that forces a form-feed at the end.

It produces _tons_ of _unshared_ code and data, increasing memory consumption significantly. Very few free applications and libraries use exception handling, but nobody cares to disable it when compiling (at least in Linux distributions). For example KDE 1.1.x is almost unusable when compiled with exception handling enabled, but AFAIK all Linux distributions ship KDE compiled with exception support. I hope that BSD port maintainers won't repeat this mistake.

There is actually a patch to pkg_version which scans all versions installed and the most recent versions in /ports and builds a script you cam modify and run to fetch and install any upgrades you would like. Just remember to read it first, hand-edit, and pkg_delete the ones you want to replace first. I can't remember where it is off hand. >upgrade in the field problem. aaaahhhhh dll hell with deps.

Or have you just used the Generic one? If you bought "The Complete FreeBSD" there's a good section in there on building a custom kernel. If not, in the online handbook there's info at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html In the end run, did you include support for your new ethernet card in your kernel, recompile & reinstall the kernel? According to the LINT file (typically in /sys/i386/conf), you need the following: device ex0 at isa? port? net irq? Since I haven't played with many ISA devices, I'm not sure if you'll need more information included or not. Since it seems like you had an ethernet card previously installed, I'm assuming that you have the following line already included in your kernel? : pseudo-device ether If you haven't already built your custom kernel, you really need to do that first.

All I could come up with was the "ie0", which is setup for 300 and 10. I assume you will have to build a kernel with the "ie0" card available and then replace your old NIC parameters in rc.conf with "ie0". BTW, the LINT didn't have much information but the HARDWARE.TXT implied it covered your NIC.

The fxp0 is an EtherExpress Pro and his NIC is a much older one. Check the ie0 device in the LINT and in the HARDWARE.TXT. In the HARDWARE.TXT it discusses "Intel EtherExpress (8/16,16[TP])". I'm assuming his NIC is the "16" one covered here.

"I'll love reading once I learn how...." =) Thanks for the > correction, Kent. Hey, I personally think computers were developed to keep us all humble. There is no IMHO unless you make the H for honest. Once you get good at something you need a daily refresher on being humble. I was a local site representative doing hot-line support for a Service Center in Dallas, TX that used CDC-Cybers. I came to believe that the mind reads what it wants. On numerous occasions, I looked at a customers file and had them read the line back to me. They still didn't see the typo until I pointed it out. Their mind knew what was supposed to be there and that is what it saw. You can't have some one explain what they did because their error will seem reasonable to you. A cold look first is much more likely to find dumb errors. If you don't see anything, then ask them what they did. What caught my eye is that I have an EtherExpress Pro 100 in my system and the 16 made me look further. I hadn't seen that before. The LINT file certainly wasn't helpfull at that point. Fortunately, the HARDWARE.TXT was more enlightening for the "ie0". BTW, your most important friend is one who can catch your dumb errors and not make you feel stupid :). It is a two way street. When they need help, you have to return the favor.

We need help on your question. I always check the defaults and then add the hardware with that setting. Most of my devices are PCI and autoconfig. I have only been using FreeBSD for 10 months and haven't done enough configuring hardware to change from feeling like a newbie. If you can change IRQ's on_the_fly, it probably has to be done at boot time by doing a "boot -c". You can change most device parameters at that point and I assume you can change the IRQ for a NIC the same way. Eventually, I think you want to build the parameters into your kernel.

The thing I want for this script is to do some inteliigent step(s) to do the following: 1. don't include, or otherwise strip, all entries that are NOT directories, so as NOT to save them in the generated output file for example ls -F | grep / (but this will output a trailing / after each and every directory name), so how to strip this can this be done using sed, or something else ? 2. Remove certain directory entries form the list, for example CVS/ , pkg/ before saving the final output to the file. 3. the list must be sequential listing one entry on a seperate line. (like issuing simple ls) can anyone help me through this. thanks in advance. ===== MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

We are trying to avoid being in the same boat, our FreeBSD mail server runs great. But there's lots of pressure to have schedule features that will work with MS Exchange boxes on our campus network. I've heard that Communigate ( I think that's who it was ) is working on this, but I'm not sure exactly what features it gets you.

If I do a traceroute from this box to one of the local workstations, it goes out through the default route rather than directly to the machine. I guess a netmask is setup wrong somewhere, but I haven't found it. This particular BSD box is connected to many different networks, and about 120+ IPS assigned to it.

I hope that BSD port > maintainers won't repeat this mistake. I strongly suggest not disabling exception support by default for several reasons: - we would have a totally broken C++ compiler again, because you would need to provide options to get an ISO compliant compiler. If you look at the standard, you need exceptions for the most basic things, for example the new operator (the C++ version of malloc) that throws a bad_alloc exception when failing (in contrast to malloc which will return 0). - the number of "real" C++ programs will probably increase. I think that exception handling has not been used until now because of missing compiler support. For example KDE version 2 will use MICO, which uses exceptions. -- German Tischler, tanis@gaspode.franken.de "There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and Unix.

Actually I really understand WHY its doing this, the question is; how to be able to cvsup the thing and at same time 1. log the output, and tail it to see what is going on there. 2. make 'tail' give back the control to following line after the initial process 'cvsup' returns. thank you for you patience. ===== MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

A perfect addendum to my weekly ports-sup cron job. pkg_version -c is a Good Thing. Thanks for bring it to my attention. As mentioned before I think it owuld be nice if the OS were installed with the ports mechanism. BASE would be just enough to boot the system in single user mode (maybe)?

I have bash-2.03 installed, and that script would delete it, only to reinstall the same version! I think it should be modified to skip the update if one of the versions in the index is the same to what you have installed. I guess I should get coding rather than whinging though. :-) There's another case if there are multiple versions, when it isn't perfect, but it's still very helpful. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 28 14:51: 9 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from support.euronet.nl (support.euronet.nl [194.134.32.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D6CFA14F32 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:51:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pieterw@support.euronet.nl) Received: (from pieterw@localhost) by support.euronet.nl (8.9.1/8.9.1) id XAA08683; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 23:50:58 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from pieterw) Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 23:50:58 +0100 From: Pieter Westland To: Ben Smithurst Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Hanging tty's Message-ID: <19991228235058.A8365@support.euronet.nl> References: <19991223134606.A773@support.euronet.nl> <19991223171107.A1524@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: <19991223171107.A1524@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk>; from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk on Thu, Dec 23, 1999 at 05:11:07PM +0000 X-OS: FreeBSD support.euronet.nl 2.2.7-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE X-URL: http://support.euronet.nl/~pieterw X-Editor: vim X-Quote: Economics is fun!

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 Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to ask your help with an application using System V Message Queues for IPC. I would like to modify the application to increase the size of 1 each message (from MSGMMAX in sys/msg.h, of 2048 bytes) 2 the queue capacity (another constant in that header file) Should I modify the kernel definitions of those constants and then have the application define these constants accordingly ? The fantastic book "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment" (APUE) suggests that these limits can be redefined but I am not sure how to. sysctl does not seem to deal with these limits nor does ulimit or login.conf. Your advice will be gratefully accepted. APUE does not seem to have a high opinion of Sys V IPC but I am too ignorant to consider named pipes or other alternatives. Thank you, Yours sincerely.

I do not have a CD ROM and was planning to do it after downloading the software off the web. However, the installation instructions that are given are a little confusing. I have tried to download from ftp://ftp.ca.freebsd.org but I get only directories containing the src code- are there any binaries which can be downloaded? Also, does installation from MSDOS partition(which I think is the only choice available to me) mean that the bsd software will be kept on a directory in the win98 partition and it will then create a new partition table on the partition where it is to be installed? If these questions are too elementary for this forum, can anyone please suggest another mailing list ./ website.

Before installing a new release of FreeBSD, read the errata, which may contain important information. For 3.4, you'll find it at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.4R/errata.html. There you will read: As shipped, the "Custom" installation option in 3.4 is broken. Fix: Both the "Novice" and "Express" install paths still work and can be used just as effectively (if not succinctly). Alternately, you can invoke the custom installation from the "Index" menu (Installation, Custom) or you can download a fixed mfsroot.flp floppy image (or boot.flp if you need 2.88MB boot media) from the floppies/updates/ directory under: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE/ The 3.4 ISO installation image is also updated to contain a fix for this errata item. It's difficult to say whether this applies to you, since you didn't describe what you did, but there's a good chance this is what happened. If not, please describe what you did and when it happened.

This is not correct; you should run it against the raw complete partition /dev/rda0c. The distinction between /dev/da0c and /dev/rda0c will go away in 4.0, but the distinction between /dev/da0c and /dev/da0 remains important. disklabel gives you a shorthand way to do this: 'disklabel da0'. > 2.

It sounds like you were trying to install without using the boot floppies. You can't just download a bunch of files and expect to have a running operating system - at the very minimum, the operating system needs to be configured to your hardware. FreeBSD has an install program. If you are going to install from FTP, you will need to make the boot floppies, which also contain the install program. On the FreeBSD homepage, click on "Obtaining FreeBSD." You will see instructions for downloading FreeBSD off of the Internet, including how to make the boot floppies. / ghIj qet jaghmeyjaj \ / jaghmeylI' DaghIjjaj qetjaj jaghmeylI' \ \ - "May your enemies run with fear" / \ "The Klingon Way" Mark Okrand, 1996 / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 28 17: 9:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 28FC214FB8 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 17:09:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id LAA83946; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 11:38:44 +1030 (CST) Date: Wed, 29 Dec 1999 11:38:44 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: andrew Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: RAID Arrays Message-ID: <19991229113844.T1316@freebie.lemis.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i In-Reply-To: WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog X-PGP-Fingerprint: 6B 7B C3 8C 61 CD 54 AF 13 24 52 F8 6D A4 95 EF 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 Tuesday, 28 December 1999 at 7:49:40 -0200, andrew wrote: > Can I merge many FreeBSD partitions on different disks in one big > partition?

Shooting my ISP is something I have thought about for months now :). But need them because at least they do allow me high speed win98 acess which is better than nothing. As for ISDN....it seems the ISDN uses the same sort of conditioned line as DSL. So it would cost exactly the same to install either one. I have spoke with Covad and the ILEC here many times over this issue. They seem very set. Its odd that a T1 can be installed for under $500 and cost around $269/month....but Covad refuses to accept a Point to Point line ordered by me for their service. They say Contracts with the ILEC prevents me from providing my own Local Loop. anyhow....will have to wait out this Cable modem issue until the new two way modems are released....they told me they would be out in 98....still waiting. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brooks Davis" To: "Jason" Cc: Sent: Tuesday, December 28, 1999 12:07 PM Subject: Re: Cable Modem Support > On Tue, Dec 28, 1999 at 03:35:22AM -0500, Jason wrote: > > I need to know if there is any BSD support for a General Instruments > > Internal Cable Modem.

I don't think so, as I noted I'm trying to limit resources for programs *not* being run from a shell. From reading the man page, ulimit only limits what you're running as commands from the shell.

I have no idea what I'm doing....but it beats re-booting. -duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 28 21:35:47 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp2.cybersurf.net (smtp2.cybersurf.net [209.197.145.112]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3EA0815682 for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 21:35:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from 01031149@3web.net) Received: from webserver ([209.197.158.61]) by smtp2.cybersurf.net (Netscape Messaging Server 4.05) with SMTP id FNHMBR00.N0U for ; Tue, 28 Dec 1999 22:38:15 -0700 Message-ID: <001a01bf51c7$35e1de80$3d9ec5d1@webserver> From: "Duke Normandin" <01031149@3web.net> To: Subject: Re: cons25 && (midc, /stand/sysinstall, etc) Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 22:26:12 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3612.1700 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3612.1700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Tried your sh script below... not much luck!

The installation seems to go fine, however when I go to apachectl start I get an error message that says unable to start. So I tried starting manually from the command line with /usr/local/sbin/httpd -f /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf and it still doesn't start. There is an entry in the log file each time I try to run it, saying that it can't find mime.types in /usr/local/etc/apache/etc/apache/mime.types Naturally, mime.types doesn't exist in that directory - somehow it appears that etc/apache is getting doubled up somewhere and I can't figure out where. When I run httpd -V I see that the default root is /usr/local and the conf files should be in etc/apache/whatever.conf Anyone have any ideas... Ultimately I want to add php and mysql but I seemed to be running into bigger problems there so I figured I'd start with plain vanilla and work my way up.

Non-PAO, FreeBSD 2.2.8 works beautifully on it, with one minor patch I made to 3.X that I didn't backport to 2.2 so it recognizes the PCIC bridge.

And it seems to vary with the version of FreeBSD or how recent the -current sources are. My September 15 -current did ed1 but by December 9 it was back to ed0. This is a problem on a remote reboot, because if rc.conf is wrong, the network won't come up. And then you can't get to the machine to fix it. I therefore have a little script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d called saveme.sh that's executable and runs the commands with ed1 instead of ed0 to get stuff going. I put both ed0 and ed1 in network interfaces in rc.conf. My understanding of why this happens is that the first instance of the driver (the one identified in the kernel config file) is assigned to isa, so an increment of one is applied for pci. But this is not clearly and consistently the case, obviously. For a while I had -current with ed1 and 3.3-stable (on another drive on the same machine) using ed0. I think you'd find, though, that if you compiled the kernel with ed1 instead of ed0, your card would turn up with ed2. Whenever you upgrade or compile new kernel sources, you should in this situation have a backup like I do or plan to be there so you can adjust for changes.

The error log and lilo.conf files are attached. Would somebody please help me *and* is there a better place to be looking for answers to this kind of problem? Wrap lines at 74 characters of so--otherwise we have to do it for you. Anyway, you're booting from three drives. Maybe this is possible--the bios offers two ide drives and then the scsi controller takes over. I have a setup right now that can boot FreeBSD from a third scsi drive, but I'm assuming it's sort of a fluke. Also I wonder whether it would work if you used da instead of sda on the FreeBSD drive device.

Usually in a directory like /pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-release/ You should have matching subdirectories on your dos drive, so you have c:\freebsd, c:\freebsd\bin, and so forth. These files are binaries broken into chunks suitable for storing on slopping disks, although that's the hard way to do it. > Also, does installation from MSDOS partition(which I think is the only > choice available to me) mean that > the bsd software will be kept on a directory in the win98 partition and it > will then create a new partition table on the partition where it is to be > installed? The installation process will ask you where you want to create the partition or slice for FreeBSD. You can do this in empty space you have created (by reducing the size of the dos/win partition) or you can do it by deleting an existing partition, whose data will be lost.

You're sending a TERM signal (kill's default) to PID 1. The "-1" argument must be placed before PID(s); if you place it after, either it is ignored or taken as a special broadcast PID, where if you're root the signal go to every process running, if you're a standard user the signal go to all your processes. The result is going single-user; when you exit single-user mode, you return in multi-user mode. If this is what you want, consider using "shutdown now" instead of killing init. Sending HUP to init simply causes it to rescan /etc/ttys, so don't expect an error (?). Next time try "man kill". :-) --- Stefano Riva Systems & Network Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

Except that you're not looking closely enough at the error message. Whatever connection generated that error message, it was destined for the ftp port (21) and not the tftp port (69). When you say "seems to okay", I assume you mean that you have something like this: etc/services: tftp 69/tcp #Trivial File Transfer tftp 69/udp #Trivial File Transfer /etc/inetd.conf tftp dgram udp wait nobody /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd /tftp Have you actually got a /tftp (or whatever name you chose for it) directory? Have you looked at the limitations discussed in the tftpd(8) manual page? Have you restarted inetd? Is inetd being launched with the -w flag? If so, are you sure you're allowing tftpd access in /etc/hosts.allow? If you're really not seeing any other useful error messages, you can try running inetd in debugging mode (-d) and turning on logging (-l). Ciao, Sheldon.

There's even a "see csh(1) for details". If you're someone who needs help on a command, probably not an expert, maybe you don't know about kill being also a csh built-in. I was saying, with a smile, to first look at the man page of the command you've trouble with... usually you find at least a pointer to the right page(s). I must be missing something here... "-l" lists all signals, but in that case it's the only argument of kill: "kill -l". If you place it after a number, kill sends the default TERM signal to that PID and ignores "-l". This is what I understand reading csh(1) and this is what I get on a 3.4-STABLE box here. Why are you confused?

Some days ago I bought "The Complete FreeBSD 3.3". After reading the basics I tried to install FreeBSD on my old PC (486 DX4/25, 32MB Ram, Quantum Sirocco 2550A Harddisk, ATAPI CD-ROM, Diamond Viper 550 Graphic Card, Soundblaster 16). Unfortunatly, I'm not able to pass the boot process. After loading the kernel and the MFS root disk I'm able to boot the kernel. But then, the different problems start to occur (I've got different errors on different attempts). One common error is a "Fatal trap 12: page fault". Output: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x83f8bea0 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc021d29f stack pointer = 0x10:0xc062bc58 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc062bc5c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres1, def32 1, gran 1 processor flags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 Another common error after displaying the OS label FreeBSD 3.3-Release #4: Wed Sep 29 08:54:18 GMT 1999 the systems stucks after displaying some k's and the automatically reboots after 15 seconds. Some times I'm able to pass UserConfig (after removing not installed components) my disks are checked and after recognizing the CD-ROM the system hangs: ... wdc0 at 0x1f0 - 0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: CMD640B workaround enabled wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): wd0: 2445MB (5008752 sectors), 4696 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, iordy atapi 0.1: unknown phase I tried to start the system on my laptop as well and everything seems to be OK (in fact, I reach the sysinstall program). Can anybody help me out of my problems? I've read the handbook from "The Complete FreeBSD", but I cannot find any informations related to my problem. Furthermore, I could not find any informations in the comp.unix.bsd.freebsd* news groups. Thanks in advance!

A quick scan of the MAKEDEV script shows that it takes care of all the other devices for you. I am using an SBPro with no problems, and I do get the "SBPro support" message on boot up. You might also scan the FreeBSD mailing lists archives for more complete information on SBPro support.

Did you install from the ports or a package? I installed from the ports collection. I have java script turned on, as well. I am using an old S3/GX video card with the S3V video driver. You might try changing the video driver for X to see if that helps. I do have problems with xfstt executing on my FreeBSD server, but do not have any problems connecting to xfstt on my Linux box. The Linux implementation runs smoothly and serves fonts to four machines. The freebsd version barely runs, cannot handle large web font files, and dies if anyone connects to it remotely. xfstt 1.0 runs fine on Redhat, but dies and goes to hell on my FreeBSD box, even though the author claims to have made improvements specifically for FreeBSD.

In my local network (10.0.0.x) I have an X server. I want to use xdmcp to start the clients on a SUN with CDE on my university. My network is connected to the outside via a cablemodem and natd. I have redirected the x11 ports (see /etc/services) with natd to my internal computer. I can start an application remote and see it on my screen with telnet and the proper DISPLAY set. So X is working and I have the right redirections. But XDMCP will not work (timeout). I have also tried to redirect the xdmcp ports with natd, but that made no difference. (Not suprising, because my xdmcp query is going out, while the x11 connections are comming in - please tell me if this is a wrong idea of the protocols.) I can use XDMCP to FreeBSD boxes on the local network, so that part of the configuration is ok. Can anybody explain this to me? Do I need to redirect other ports than the x11 ports also.

Using the same kernel config file as before, I do the following: cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf && \ config -rg MYKERN && \ cd ../../compile/MYKERN && \ make depend && \ make && \ make install This produces the following unexpected error: You must first build your kernel before trying to install. *** Error code 1 The only binary object in the directory is genassym.o. Running the commands manually simply confirms that the ``make'' command is returning immediately with no output and having done (apparently) nothing. I'm sure I've seen this asked and answered here before, but can't find it in the FAQ, nor in the kernel config section of the handbook. TIA Sheldon.

Nice levels and priority are completely different things. Nice levels are a hint to the scheduler, indicating how frequently the process should be given a timeslice. Priority is an after-the-fact measurement. Basically, it's an indication of how frequently the scheduler had to stop the process because it used up its entire timeslice. Processes often don't use their entire timeslice because they sleep waiting for IO to complete. Processes that are more CPU-bound than IO-bound will tend to have higher priorities. The word ``priority'' in this context has nothing to do with its normal english meaning. It's just an indication of how CPU-bound a process is. > When I set the priority in login.conf why does it change the nice level? Ah, for that you'd have to look at the login.conf(5) manpage, which kinda hints at the fact that, in the context of the login.conf file, priority really means nice level. Horrible choice of words. :-) Hope this helps. Ciao, Sheldon.

What do you expect to happen? All SIGHUP does to init is cause it to reload /etc/ttys.

That command tries to send SIGTERM to init, which is documented as dropping the system down to single user mode - precisely what you are seeing. It would also attempt to send SIGTERM to the process "-l", which is not a legal PID (whether it will try this or not I don't know - init may have killed the kill process before it gets that far). -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 29 10: 3:35 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DC42E14DA2 for ; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 10:03:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=ben) by scientia.demon.co.uk with smtp (Exim 3.092 #1) id 123K5X-000DMN-00; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 14:28:31 +0000 Date: Wed, 29 Dec 1999 14:28:30 +0000 From: Ben Smithurst To: Danny Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Unstable /kernel Message-ID: <19991229142830.B49613@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <3.0.32.19991229182917.00773478@idx.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19991229182917.00773478@idx.com.au> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Danny wrote: > - Running FreebSD 3.3 > -Running KDE (one that comes with 3.3) > -Running a P166 > - Had to reinstall FreeBSD > -How come ocassionally get:- > > "Fault Trap 12 in kernel code" I see this a lot - I'm suspecting it's a dodgy motherboard in my case (I swapped the RAM with that from another machine, and the problems persisted, while the other machine continued to have no problems). I've ordered a new motherboard - and guess what, as soon as I ordered the new board, the problems have gone away. I suspect Murphy^WSod's law is in action. This is almost certainly a hardware problem, not a FreeBSD problem. If you can get a kernel dump that shows it is a FreeBSD problem, that would be a different matter. > 1)what exactly is the problem with FreeBSD 3.3? > 2)How can I solve the problem? Get better hardware. :-) First try the RAM (swap with the RAM from another machine if possible), if that doesn't work, something else is wrong. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 29 10:16:24 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from jasper.heartland.ab.ca (jasper.heartland.ab.ca [207.107.228.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7702915693 for ; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 10:16:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dkwiebe@hagenhomes.com) Received: from hagenhomes.com (dyn104.heartland.ab.ca [207.107.228.104]) by jasper.heartland.ab.ca (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id LAA22539; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 11:01:27 -0700 (MST) Message-ID: <386BA131.E32DCBA@hagenhomes.com> Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 11:15:13 -0700 From: Darren Wiebe Organization: Hagen Homes Ltd.

Simply: Internet---ROUTER---[firewall]---[hub]-----LAN--. ^ ^ fxp1 fxp0 fxp0 has a real IP assigned and fxp1 is directly connected to router by cross-over ethernet cable no IP assigned. all LAN machines have real IP kernel compiled with: options BRIDGE options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD also at startup: sysctl -w net.link.ether.bridge=1 sysctl -w net.link.ether.bridge_ipfw=1 To start-with I set the firewall 'open' and all machines were able to ping each other and I was able to even browse the net from my local LAN BUT there seems to be problem passing packets from 'ROUTER' to fxp0 VIA fxp1 ROUTER----fxp1-[ firewall ]-fxp0----[ LAN ] some UDP and ICMP packets don't make it from outside(Internet) to my inside LAN as a result web browsing stalls. I have tried to use 'ipfw fwd' rule to forward packets from LAN to router via fxp1 and vise versa but 'ipfw fwd' seems to work only in one directions. Has anybody tried setting up kernel bridging in FreeBSD that they would like to share with me? How can I forward packets between two interfaces in the same box without routing?

I would like to know if there is any way to convert the mailling system from WinNT server using Nestcape software to Free BSD mailling system using sendmail software reserving all data and account ? How can I do that ? We need to convert these mailling system to Free BSD version 2.2.7 system, and using Apache Web server, but I have no books, documents and experiences on Free BSD and Turbo Linux. I have a little experience on WinNT. I have just downloaded the Free BSD Handbook and found some more books on Free BSD. Among of them, I think that the book Complete BSD of Walnut Creek cdrom is the most valuable, but this book is not free. You know, Vietnam is still very poor so it's very difficult to me to register this book or CD. Otherwise, I have no condition to pay and buy this CD because there is no Free BSD branch here. The Internet speed here is very terrible and not stable (about 100-150 bytes/second), very difficult to download and browse in Internet. Do you have this book on CD ? Would you please send me this books in some extract file such as gz, zip, tar,... In case it contains more part, please send seperate them in to many mail and send them through me. Or if this books have Acrobat Pdf format or Ghostview ps format, please extract them and send to me both 2 addresses below: nmtho@dit.hcmut.edu.vn and manhtho@yahoo.com. I also send the email to Mr. Greg Lehey, the book author but have no reponse from him. Thank you for ahead, I am looking forward your reply, Best Regards, Nguyen Manh Tho. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

You can't specify tag=RELENG_3 for ports, but you do via the default line. Try using ports-all tag=. This is discussed in the handbook.

Have you got ``mx#0'' in the printcap entry for you printer? This sets the maximum file size and setting it to zero means unlimited size. If the mx entry is missing then the default maximum size is 1000 BUFSIZ blocks which is ~1MB and if your print exceeds this size, data is lost and the printer starts printing out the data verbatim (as though it was ASCII text). > My printer is HP DJ670C, tried GS > 5.50 and 5.10 with cdj670 and cdj550 drivers.

No reason to worry. The ed driver traditionally was for ISA cards only (NE2k clones and others). It was later extended to work for so-called PCI NE2k clones, too. When you have "device ed0" in your kernel config file, it will reserve "ed0" for an ISA card. So when it finds a PCI card, it will get the nex free slot assigned, which is "ed1". Later it tries to probe for ed0 (ISA), but doesn't find one (unless you also happen to have an ISA NE2k card); it then prints "ed0 not found at 0x280" or something similar (may- be only during a verbose boot, though). I think the behaviour was changed recently (in -current?), so your first ed device will always be 0, no matter whether ISA or PCI.

However top does not list them, and uptime does not indicate that they eat CPU time. So is it that ps just gets invalid info due to the zombie state of the process, or is the 'zombie handling' CPU intensive?

I have links to libdescrypt instead of to libscrypt. So how do I switch over to MD5-type password encryption?

I bet my other programs that use passwords, such as atalkd and Samba, will be messed up, also. For a new install, how could I have installed MD5 instead of DES? I.e. where did I go wrong? Wayne M.

You should be using sbxvi0 in _addition_ to sb0. You do have an SB16, so why don't you just use the driver for the SB16?

Also it confuses the hell >out of people who try to answer your question :-) I suppose I should have been more precise as to what I was doing and wanted to do: TERM=cons25 In /etc/rc.conf, I've been experimenting with various fonts. I now understand from a reply to a previous question of mine, that the fonts I use must be "matched" to the correct termcap console. So I've been editting ttys, trying out cons25l1, cons25w, etc etc. Before I got the nerve to try "kill -HUP 1", I simply did "shutdown -r now", to re-initialize the system. When I first tried "kill -HUP 1, I _did not_ expect a "pat on the back" from the system, congradulating me on a successful "kill" ;-) -- rather I was looking for the problem's symptoms to have disappeared, or different symptom's for the same problem. Nothing happened; nothing changed with my consoles, leading me to believe that I had screwed up the command somehow. How I came across kill 1 -l, I can't recall. However, it did exactly what I expected -- re-initialize the system (but w/o the device probing). One of the problems I'm trying to fix is the rendering of the "window" borders in "midc" --- using cons25 with the wrong font, or visa versa, results in a bunch of "garbage" characters for the window border instead of lines. Soooo, I editted the said "ttys" file, hoping to stumble on a configuration that would render correctly. In order to test it out, I of course have to re-init! I was hoping that it would be as simple as doing "source .cshrc" when I'm messing with ~/ .cshrc. So, bottom-line, how do I re-init the system without device probing -- i.e. w/o total reboot?

Nice to hear that. > >No. You don't write scripts in csh; it's evil. :-) > > An "evil" shell as the default for root? Can't help the learning curve, > can it! :-) No, writing scripts in csh is evil. Whether using csh as an interactive shell is evil, is debatable... I think the fact that root's login shell is a csh has mainly historical (hysterical...) reasons. Personally, I have an alias "su" --> "su -m", so I get the same shell as root that i have as normal user (which happens to be zsh), without having to change root's login shell in the passwd file (which could have undesirable side effects). A "bare bones" FreeBSD only has sh and csh, and of those two I'd definitely prefer sh (for example in single-user mode, I always use sh, not csh). It has history and line-editing features, so there's really no reason to resort to csh's crappyness. Well OK, sh is missing a filename completion...

You should define the LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE and LANG environment variables in your shell. For example, in my tcsh shell (file ~/.tcshrc): setenv LC_ALL en_US.ISO_8859-1 setenv LC_CTYPE en_US.ISO_8859-1 setenv LANG en_US.ISO_8859-1 In a bash shell, in order to get e.g. the Italian locale, add these lines to your ~/.bash_profile: LC_ALL=3Dit_IT.ISO_8859-1 export LC_ALL LC_CTYPE=3Dit_IT.ISO_8859-1 export LC_CTYPE LANG=3Dit_IT.ISO_8859-1 export LANG Now the console and perl (e.g. "killall") no longer complain. Gnome and KDE-1.1.2 seem to work properly -- in every supported language I have tried so far. As far as I can see, the working locales are under /usr/share/locale. Personally, I have defined these variables right at the beginning of the shell login files. You may want to read "man setocale(3)" and, in particular, "man perllocale(1)". I have just entered into this field ;-) I am Italian, I use an en_US.ISO_8859-1 locale as root and as normal user, and I am going to use a French and German locale as another two users -- just to practice these languages. My home users desperately wanted only the Italian locale ... I hope that this information will help. Best regards and Happy New Year, Salvo N.B.

But for the record Internet Sharing in Windows is nothing more than a web proxy. It wont forward ANY other protocol. I will probably continue to use Midpoint Gold on Win98SE. I just got a copy of Win2k Professional, Server, and Advanced Server. They are officially release to manufacture now and it has all NAT/DHCP features found in NT4 and some enhancements previously found only in BSD like systems. I plan to test that as my new gateway box which will allow me to use my new BSD box (still in the works) to run most of the server daemons. > > As for ISDN....it seems the ISDN uses the same sort of conditioned line as > > DSL.

I couldn't tell from your letter if Covad was the telco or > ISP. Covad is neither. To get DSL you need three companies. ILEC, DSL Provider, ISP. the ILEC provides the Loop to the CPE. The DSL Provider is responsible for the all the CPE and connecting the ILEC to the ISP. The ISP does what you would expect and ISP to do. You order with an ISP....they are partnered with one of three major DSL providers....Covad, Northpoint, and Rhythems. The ISP orders with the DSL Provider who are colocated in most ILEC COs acorss the US. They order the physical loop from that ILEC. My problem is that the ILEC Covad uses has reported it will cost $7000+ for them to do the work....so Covad calls the ISP and tells them it will cost $7000+ to complete....then the ISP calls me with the same news...then I call my lawyer to see if the 1 year contract is worded well enough for me to file suit :) > > anyhow....will have to wait out this Cable modem issue until the new two way > > modems are released....they told me they would be out in 98....still > > waiting. > > Good luck.

So the ILEC has told me it will cost $7000+ per line to complete such an order. Per minute charges do not apply to ISDN in Michigan. The MPSC has never allowed that and treat the lines like any voice grade service. There can be a per call charge but most ISDN plans offer so many free calls per month. A regular dual channel ISDN line with 50 free calls is about $50/Month here. Most ISPs charge $200+/Month for Dedicated ISDN. And have hourly limits per month for the regular dialup ISDN services. I however found a ISDN ISP in New York that offers nationwide access and will allow true unlimited (24/7) access on their dialup ISDN service. They just dont guarentee you will never be disconnected. It costs about $40/month for dual channel and they can even offer up to 5 static IPs om this service for a bit extra.

OK, here are step-by-step instructions. - Be sure that you have ISO 8859-1 fonts loaded. Use ``vidcontrol -f'' for this; see the manual page. Add the appropriate entries to /etc/rc.conf to have the fonts loaded upon boot automatically (see /etc/defaults/rc.conf). DO NOT use a screenmap. - Edit /etc/ttys and change "cons25" to "cons25l1". This will change the default $TERM (termcap) setting for the console and virtual terminals. - For the change to take effect, type ``kill -HUP 1'' (be careful to type this command exactly like that -- a typo can cause a reboot! See "man 8 init"). This should restart the getty processes that are running on the vritual terminals. - You can type ``echo $TERM'' to verify the correct setting. It should print ``cons25l1''. If it doesn't, try setting it manually -- this depends on your shell. For sh, ksh, bash, zsh: export TERM=cons25l1 For csh, tcsh: setenv TERM cons25l1 Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 29 15:27:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.cableregina.com (ip3.net20483142.cr.sk.ca [204.83.142.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 5238114EDE for ; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 15:27:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from srogers@cableregina.com) Received: from [24.72.20.36] by mail.cableregina.com (SMTPD32-4.0) id A8CAE4BA009E; Wed, 29 Dec 1999 19:27:06 -0400 Message-ID: <000501bf5254$bc4915a0$24144818@cableregina.com> From: "Stuart Rogers" To: Subject: A mail server Date: Wed, 29 Dec 1999 17:30:44 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion on a good mail server so I can have mail address like mine @ mydomain.com.

If it does, you will be logged out automatically. Then you have to log in again. If it doesn't, then the $TERM variable will not be updated automatically, and you have to set it manually as I explained in my previous email message. Second: After the kill command, you should type the command ``tail /var/log/messages''. In case there is a syntax error or some other problems in your /etc/ttys file, init will send appropriate messages to syslog, and they will appear in the messages file.

DO NOT use a screenmap. Yes! I've been editting /etc/rc.conf until my fingers are sore.

I'll try it as I said above, but I'm looking for a cons25xxxx setting that: (will work with iso_thin-xxxx) && (not trash "midc" window borders). So if "kill -HUP 1 is my friend here, I'll stake my sanity on it.

I'm talking about the Custom distribution, as opposed to choosing a predefined one like X-User or Kern-Developer or whatever.

I've no experience, but I suspect that if you use smbclient to connect to the shared printer in the same way as with a 95 mchine, this should work. E.g. \\myw4w\printer - except that, I think smbclient wants "//myw4w/printer" rather than the "\"s. Or perhaps use a "\" to 'escape' the '\' - thus "\\\\myw4w\\printer" on the command line. So, something like "% smbclient //myw4w/printer" or "% smbclient \\\\myw4w\\printer" - check the man page for smbclient to check for further details. I did this a while back for a Sun box to win-nt shared printer, I just forget off hand which magical incantation it was ;') My fBSD box prints directly to the IP address of the laser printer :') > > Thanks. > > Michael G. > * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * > ICQ #24517082 Live FreeBSD...Or Die! > > PIC X 10 VALUE "YES!

(long) 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 "All versions of FreeBSD, including 3.0, will RUN in 4MB of ram, they just can't run the installation program in 4MB. You can add extra memory for the install process, if you like, and then after the system is up and running, go back to 4MB. Or you could always just swap your disk into a system which has >4MB, install onto it and then swap it back." Thus the FAQ. I was planning to do this (put drive in other system) for an old 486 laptop with 4MB, which isn't really worth the plus $50-100 they charge for a RAM-card to upgrade. I tried whether it worked on a desktop first. I installed a 4.0 snapshot on a 486DX66 with 8MB, which went fine, and then took 4 MB out. No go with the generic kernel, but well that's in the FAQ also. It does run with a custom kernel... for a while. The machine sort of stops responding when the daily checks are being done. Drives keep running and running. It spits out one message: sendmail[889]: CAA00843: SYSERR(root): timeout writing message to local. This is at 02:51 hours, 51 minutes after the checks start. I waited for another couple of hours. No change. So I did a cold reboot, even though the machine wasn't completely dead: the screensaver was still moving. And it started moving again after stopping it by hitting a key. Moving from one virtual console to another also still worked. But that's it. To test the thing I let the box run rc5des, which runs at nice 20 by default and does take only 800K RAM. I also tried running without sendmail. Questions I have: 1. Anyone with more success? What is the secret? Kill the daily's? 2. Will an older version do better on 4 MB? I do know about 2.1.7.1. But I do need PCMCIA-support for a ed0 card. I managed to install 2.1.7 through plip some time ago without taking the harddisk out. But couldn't find a way to get the network card running. Thanks for any pointers!

I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.2 onto the second EIDE drive on a P166 intel chip based PC on the second drive... is a Maxtor drive (if memory serves) and it is 6.1+ GB...(6179mb). Installation goes ok.... until I try to boot, selecting FreeBsd from installed OS/2 boot manager option. The boot- up goes ok until it fails with the message unable to mount root. I just tried a third time after re-partitioning the drive so that FBSD was placed close to the start of the second drive and got the same results. By way of providing more complete info, FreeBSD will be one of two operating systems on the PC...the other is W95 running on a FAT32 formatted drive in primary C partition. To provide a final comment, I just installed FBSD on the primary Fujitsu drive (1623mb) and the installation succeeded and it booted up ok. Thanks for any comments or suggestions in advance regarding how I might have success installing on the second drive. I have installed the OS several times in the past but am rusty and not an expert...I'm wondering if the size of the target partition might be the problem when trying to install to this maxtor drive and if maybe I could fix problem by going with later release of FreeBSD?

Well, there's still 3.4. That might be significantly smaller than 4.0. And you do have enough swap space, don't you? If you run low on swap on a machine like that, things will go to hell.

If it worked with other OS's, then it should be deemed workable, and let the jumper alone.

Some drives aren't detected when they are the only device and jumpered as a slave on the secondary IDE channel. A couple don't want to be the master on the secondary IDE channel but work just fine as a slave behind the HD on the primary IDE channel. My Teac is the master on the secondary IDE channel. The slave on the secondary channel is a WD 3.1GB HD. I looked at all of the IDE CDROM's that I have and the have either 3 or 5 jumper locations. The right three have text above them saying something like (cs or csel), (ma or master), and (sl or slave).

FreeBSD has a problem when the CDROM is misconfigured. You can't have a slave without a master. It also has a problem with some when they are the only drive and the master. Some of the other OS'es cope with a misconfigured drive. This has been an on going thread since 3.1 or 3.2. Kent .

You haven't been following the threads on questions. This has been an on going problem since about 3.1 or 3.2. There are CDROM's that will work with other OS'es jumpered as a slave but not on FreeBSD. There have been a couple of CDROM's that will not work as the master on the secondary but work just fine as a slave on the primary IDE channel. His CDROM could be one of these drives.

Not a very sophisticated question here. I am working on a Compaq Prolinea 590 (Pent 90Mhz). This is probably the tenth distinct FreeBSD box I have build, and not the first to use this hardware (although I used ISA network interface cards exclusively before this). Among these installs, several have become firewalls for xDSL customers. I'm just building a gateway/firewall to front my new cable modem service, and ran into a problem with the PCI network interface card. It is a GFC2204 10/100, and the readme for linux says to use the DECchip Tulip dc21x4x driver. Silly me I look up the de0 ... Digital Equipment DC21040 Ethernet adapter under FreeBSD and don't expect a problem. (the other nic is a 3c509, no problems there) Supporting the NIC doesn't look like a problem for FreeBSD, so I fire up the install floppy and tear into a 2.2.8-RELEASE install. I noticed that dmesg had some funny stuff in there but nothing I would call critical. I went through and rebuilt the kernel, etc, leaving the device de0 line in the config file of course. Now I have finished all the other configuration for the firewall, restarted the device on it's new kernel, and a little examination reveals the following from dmesg. Does anyone have a suggestion to get this working (with the current h/w preferably)? #dmesg [...] Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0 rev 0 int B irq 80 on pci0:0:0 chip1 rev 0 int B irq 176 on pci0:0:1 chip2 rev 0 int C irq 16 on pci0:0:2 chip3 rev 0 int C irq 112 on pci0:0:3 chip4 rev 0 int C irq 208 on pci0:0:4 chip5 rev 0 int D irq 48 on pci0:0:5 chip6 rev 0 int D irq 144 on pci0:0:6 chip7 rev 0 int D irq 240 on pci0:0:7 vga0 <...stuff here...> rev 252 on pci0:10:0 pci0:13: vendor=0x1256, device=0x1400, class=network (ethernet) int a irq 11 [no driver assigned] [...probing isa0 follows w/ no abnormalities...] --- end dmesg --- thanks, --Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 0:33:22 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from student.rug.ac.be (student.rug.ac.be [157.193.88.45]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8474315329; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 00:33:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from frank@student.rug.ac.be) Received: (from frank@localhost) by student.rug.ac.be (8.9.3/8.9.3/DSA/1.0) id JAA07418; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:33:03 +0100 Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:33:03 +0100 From: Frank Louwers To: William Woods Cc: freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Sound on a Thinkpad 770E Message-ID: <19991230093303.A7396@student.rug.ac.be> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: ; from freebsd@cybcon.com on Wed, Dec 29, 1999 at 10:40:23PM -0800 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Dec 29, 1999 at 10:40:23PM -0800, William Woods wrote: > Anyone get sound working on a Thinkpad 770E?

If you are using ftp then you need to make sure that you are transferring files in binary mode. If you use rcp, the Windows version has a ``-b'' option to force binary mode. If you don't use it then Windows will try to be clever and do a DOS-to-UNIX, or UNIX-to-DOS, EOL translation. This screws up binary files as it changes *all* occurrences of LF (ASCII 10) to CRLF (ASCII 10 & 13).

This would suggest that FreeBSD adheres more closely to the ATAPI standard than other OSes. The problem arises because many PC manufacturers (including some big-name ones) persist in setting up the CD-ROM as slave on the secondary channel without a secondary master. The fact that Windows (and apparently Linux) works with this "illegal" configuration doesn't make it any less wrong. > Kent > > > -- > > Arcady Genkin http://www.thpoon.com > > "'What good is my pity?

Well, I've finally done it: my first task as a systems-operator! The system I'm working myself into is a FreeBSD 2.2.5 system, and my first (self-appointed) task is to get to know the system. Secondly, and that is why I write to this list, I have to update the system to the newest stable release. What I need is some pointers what I need to watch when I want to update this system. Are there any known pits I could avoid? My knowledge of FreeBSD (or any unix-like system) is currently mainly in using it, and a few courses in the theory of systems administration. Very theoretical and non-specific, and almost no practical experience... That's why I want to learn. Any tips? Thanks in advance! Alex Crouzen --- BOFH trainee... Just give me your username.

I have 3.3-RELEASE installed on a Compaq Proliant 1600. During boot, the kernel sees the onboard NIC as a ThunderLAN (as it should,) but then prints out the message: /kernel: tl0: couldn't map ports It prints this immediately after the kernel messages where it recognizes the NIC. I have portmapper turned of in /etc/rc.conf, but I din't think that it should have an effect on the card, that step doesn't come until later in the boot process. Help, anyone? Has anybody seen this error message before? I have checked the Handbook and the FAQ, no joy there. TIA. -- ====================================================================== | Michael G.

You didn't mention the FreeBSD-RELEASE you use but it seems to be 2.2.x-RELEASE which doesn't negotiate speed. Either, you can use a DOS boot floppy and the 3Com DOS utility to force the card to 100MBit/s, or you can upgrade to 3.x-RELEASE where autonegotiation works pretty good.

There seems to be no easy way to answer your question in general since the answer depends on the current configuration of your system. And, do you want to upgrade by compiling the FreeBSD-stable sources or by installing 3.4-RELEASE from whatever media available? And what's the disk layout of your system? Are user files separated from system files by using different filesystems? What are your possibilities to backup user files to tape or a different disk? The safest way to update - to my mind - would be to put a new disk into your system for the installation while keeping the running system without modification on the old disk. If not possible, save all user data and the important and modified config files (mostly in /etc) on any media available. Since the release step is relatively large from 2.2.5 to 3.4, I'd prefer a complete new installation from the scratch. Of course, if the user files on your system are located within a dedicated file system, don't wipe it out, just mount it again! ;-) Good luck Konrad // // Konrad Heuer ____ ___ _____= __=20 // Gesellschaft f=FCr wissenschaftliche / __/______ ___ / _ )/ __= / _ \ // Datenverarbeitung mbH G=D6ttingen / _// __/ -_) -_) _ |\ \/= // / // Am Fa=DFberg, D-37077 G=D6ttingen /_/ /_/ \__/\__/____/___= /____/=20 // Deutschland (Germany) ----- The Power to Serve ----= - // http://www.freebsd.org // kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de // To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 6:56:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web602.mail.yahoo.com (web602.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.68.166]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A0BCE14D47 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 06:56:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dennisjun@yahoo.com) Received: (qmail 11350 invoked by uid 60001); 30 Dec 1999 14:56:42 -0000 Message-ID: <19991230145642.11349.qmail@web602.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [24.112.158.226] by web602.mail.yahoo.com; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 06:56:42 PST Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 06:56:42 -0800 (PST) From: Dennis Jun Subject: Re: Before I return FreeBSD to the store...

This is from the FreeBSD 3.3 Errata Notes at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.3R/errata.html The 3.3 ISO image (and 3.3 CDROM #1 from Walnut Creek CDROM) mysteriously fails to boot on an ATAPI CDROM device but works with SCSI CDROMs (on adaptors which support bootable CDs). Fix: Either install using boot floppies (see floppies/README.TXT) rather than booting from the CDROM or grab the updated ISO image from: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/ See also the CHECKSUM.MD5 file in that directory to verify whether you have the "old" or new image - some mirrors may be slow in picking up the uncompressed and gzipped versions of the ISO 9660 installation image. As always, Walnut Creek CDROM will also provide replacement CDs (once they become available) on request to purchasers of the 3.3-RELEASE product. This problem was caused by a bug in mkisofs which we're still chasing but have, for now, simply worked-around. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.1 for non-commercial use iQA/AwUBOGtyGG4j/qjLO4KIEQIxhACfQpaGxaqZ/JXElse3Yk57aEJCVZIAn3C+ Xs5S9XYRomWHkU1dp73ayTAW =M+uA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ===== PGP public key: http://i.am/dennisjun/ or ldap://certserver.pgp.com/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

From what I've dug up smbmount is entrenched into the Linux kernel, and started life as a very gross hack ( so I've been told ). Andrew Tridgell mentioned smbmount a little bit at the Perl/Open Source Con. It seems that smbmount had no one to maintain it, so Andrew recently took it over. Of course he works for Linux Care now so I don't know if there's much incentive for him to make it work on anything besides Linux. On a more positive note someone on one of the lists mentioned working on IPX and SMB client support for FreeBSD. This would have been a few months ago ( ? ), but I haven't heard anything since. Personally I think this is probably your best bet, unless Andrew is open to making smbmount work on something other than Linux ( he may be, I haven't asked ).

I personally have never done, although several people on the list have mentioned it working for them.

However, this is a special case. A file has been 'rm'ed, but there is a program that still has that file 'opened.' IIRC, a file in this state is recoverable since it actually still physically exists, and I also know the inode (from fstat(1) output). So, uhh... How do I actually go about doing such a thing?

If you only have two machines a crossover patch card is far cheaper. For performance, an Intel Pro 100+ is probably much faster. When you install a hub, you run half-duplex. You have to say half-fast very quickly :). A starter kit probably runs around the same price as two Intel NIC's and a crossover patch cord. You force them into full-duplex and get the full benefit of your network.

There are three basic parts to FreeBSD: the kernel, userland, and ports. The kernel is *usually* built after userland. Userland is all the commands in the /bin and /sbin directories and libraries and a slew of others, as well as all docs and config files. Ports are entirely separate. They do not need to be rebuilt, at least not for minor releases, AFAIK. So, you buildworld from sources, then compile a kernel, then reboot and installworld. (Some choose a different order for this) Ports can be left alone. Update them only if you want to take advantge of bug fixes or patches. But these only come from cvsupping the ports tree and then getting the source for the respective ports. This is not included in buildworld. -=> jm <=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 9:19:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from corinth.bossig.com (corinth.bossig.com [208.26.239.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 514AA14D27 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:19:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from 3-cities.com (kenn1188.bossig.com [208.26.241.188]) by corinth.bossig.com (Rockliffe SMTPRA 3.4.5) with ESMTP id ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:26:51 -0800 Message-ID: <386B942F.2EA074F7@3-cities.com> Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:19:43 -0800 From: Kent Stewart Organization: Columbia Basin Virtual Community Project X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Michael Dorin Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: besides new kernel, what do I have to do for upgrade References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Michael Dorin wrote: > > I am going to attempt to build a 3.4 kernel > today...What else to I have to do for upgrading > to 3.4? > > Do I have to recompile all the packages? > > Help! > > Still trying to figure out this network stalling > problem...hope an upgrade will help. Have you cvsup'ed to 3.4? and what are you running now? Most of the information that Doug put in http://freebsd.simplenet.com/make-upgrade.html will probably apply. I cvsup'ed to -stable and keep current that way. The kernel and the rest of the system have to be a matched pair.

If you want to do this, I strongly suggest you give mickey a hand in getting the fledgling OpenBSD/hppa port up and going. He already has a headstart there, and it should be substantially easier to port hppa support over from OpenBSD than developing it from scratch.

Thanks, Terry. That small pointer was what I needed. OpenSSL appears to have built cleanly for me with your suggested change of --whole-archive to -Bforcearchive. I am forwarding this response to -questions and -security so your response finds its way into the mail archives. To make it even easier for people having trouble, I have attached a patch below. Drop the patch (or this entire mail) into /usr/ports/security/openssl/patches and name it 'patch-za' (or any unused name that comes after the other patches), and you should be able to 'make' from the port directory without tampering with any Makefiles.

I dont know if Netscape uses the NT Database for the mail system, but if it does, you could use an utility called "addusers.exe", in the NT4 Resource Kit for getting all the accounts in the system, if you dont have it, I could send it to you, you will have to use it as follows: addusers \\computername /d filename -> will dump userlist to a file "without passwords :o( ". addusers \\computername /c filename -> will create accounts listed in the file (in an NT server). Once that you have your file already, you can open it in Excel (its a coma separated values .csv file), delete the columns that you dont need, delete the group information, add the password field, write down all your users passwords, and then you can make an script to merge this file in to FreeBSD. If your mail boxes files are in standard mbox format, you could copy them in to /var/mail, and you will have to chown each one of the files to the original owner, and "chmod 700 *" for security.

When I did "cd ~" from there, it took me to my home directory, and when I did "rm -ir ~" it wanted to delete files in my home directory. I ended up backing up my home directory, doing an "rm -rf ~" which deleted my whole home directory. But the ~ direcotry was still there! I tried rmdir ~, but it just said my home directory didn't exist. Finally I deleted it from emacs, which hadn't worked when my home directory existed. My question is: why did it do this?!?!? Also, how hard would it be to make things so it would look for ./~, then if that file/direcotry doesn't exist, then check for a home directory?

But a few months ago, my SupraExpress 288i PnP modem just stopped working under FreeBSD. I had made neither hardware nor software configuration changes. The symptoms: - I use ppp to connect, it says it has connected (ppp turns to PPP, "Packet mode detected") but programs such as fetchmail, lynx, netscape, etc. just can't connect to anything. - I try: echo "atdtXXXXXXX" >/dev/cuaa2 (using my other home phone #) but the modem does nothing -- there are no messages either. It just does nothing. At first I dismissed it as an isolated incident, I stopped using FreeBSD after it for several months... because I was caught up in a project in Win95, but when I returned to FreeBSD, the problem lingered. My ISP maintains they did not change anything on their side, and it should still work. It does work under Win95... I simply don't know where to go from here. My friend has had the exact same problem (but with another, more reliable modem) and I've heard from yet another person with the same problem (with a Powerbit modem). None of us has been able to resolve the issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

I haven't heard anything about support being discontinued. The system I'm typing this on is running 3.4-RC (Release Canadate) with one of those cards in it. Here's the dmesg output in question: tx0: rev 0x08 int a irq 10 on pci2.7.0 tx0: address 00:e0:29:27:50:95, type SMC9432TX, Auto-Neg 100Mbps FD It works pretty well for me, but I've never really been happy with them. The machines in our lab at work that came with them have all been upgraded to Intel EtherExpress cards. The SMC cards seem to have problems with autonegotiation and with marginal cabling and didn't work well with longish CAT-3 runs even in 10Mbps half-duplex mode. I'd ditch it, but since you don't want to do that I'd suggest making sure you are close to your switch and that your cable is definatly good. I found that sometimes they worked and sometimes they didn't even with the same setup. -- Brooks -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one" --Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 11:57:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from D2SI.COM (D2SI.COM [63.224.10.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5F92314D46; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 11:57:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ajk@paw-in-eye.net) Received: (from ajk@localhost) by D2SI.COM (8.9.3/8.9.3) id NAA03319; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 13:57:35 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from ajk) From: Alec Kloss Message-Id: <199912301957.NAA03319@D2SI.COM> Subject: Re: weirdness with a directory named ~ In-Reply-To: from Kenny Drobnack at "Dec 30, 1999 2:10:42 pm" To: kdrobnac@mission.mvnc.edu (Kenny Drobnack) Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 13:57:35 -0600 (CST) Cc: freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL43 (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 Kenny Drobnack said: > My question is: why did it do this?!?!?

IIRC, that should only be with apache12 and below. apache13 and above uses just httpd.conf which combines mime.types and access.conf and httpd.conf all in one file.

This is incorrect. Rockridge adds long file names on OSes that support the extensions (i.e. UNIX).

In that case, is the man page (quoted above) misleading me, since it seems to be saying we're stuck on 10mbps forever? And why is it asking for auto select to be _disabled_?

I won't be able to switch to > that concole (it will beep). That's because /dev/ttyva is not open. You can only switch to it when some process has opened it (getty, syslogd or whatever). Each time a process opens a virtual terminal, a counter in the device code is inremented by one. Likewise, it is decremented when the device is closed. When that counter is 0, syscons assumes that there is nothing on that virtual terminal, and it refuses to switch to it (causing a beep). > The reason why I need ttyva clean (not getty) is that I wan't dnetc CSC > client put it's log there, so I don't need to tail -f them (hence to be > login all the time). > > What fascinates me, that if I being root do: > > cat /etc/ttyva > > I will be able to switch to ttyva with Alt-F11, and all logs are there!!!! Yes, because cat opens the device, obviously. > But as soon as I press ^D, it's gone! No more logs! When cat exits, the device is closed again. I don't know what "dnetc CSC" is, but obviously it doesn't keep the device open which it is logging to (otherwise you would be able to switch to your 11th terminal all the time, just like the 12th which contains your syslog output). It probably opens the device for each line to write, and then closes it immedia- tely again. Don't ask me why... The "normal UNIX behaviour" is to keep the log file/device open all the time, and only close and re-open it upon receipt of a HUP or similar signal (e.g. for logfile rotation). A workaround (an ugly one) would be to have a dummy process hanging around that keeps the device open all the time, like your "cat" did above. A better solution would be to modify "dnetc CSC" to do the right thing.

Make sure to let me > know when FreeBSD is as easy to install as ANY of my LINUX packages; > including RedHat 6.1 and TurboLinux 4. Well, here's my experience of FreeBSD being MUCH easier than linux to set up... My file server is a Celeron 333, 128 megs of ram, 4 x 13.02 gig IDE drives (Seagate Medalist), an HP 12 Gig tape, a Sony 2x SCSI cdrom, and a Seagate 2.0 gig Barracuda SCSI disk. SCSI controller is Adaptec 2940AU. The system boots from the SCSI drive, and uses the IDE drives for bulk data storage. I installed Redhat 6.0 and FreeBSD 3.4 on this box. It took me a week to get Linux working. FreeBSD was a few hours. The install was done the same on both. The OS was set up with just the SCSI devices connected, then the IDE disks were added later. The first error in Linux was LILO (boot loader) not liking the disk configuration. It insisted that hda (wd0) was the primary boot device, and wouldn't install to sda (da0). So in the LILO config, I needed to specify the drive name -> bios address mapping manually (/dev/sda is bios 0x80, /dev/hda is bios 0x81 etc...) So I got past that, and then it's on to formatting the disks. If there was any SCSI disk connected, the Linux system was detecting hda as 75gig, with absurd c/h/s numbers. If I disconnected the SCSI devices, it went fine. After 2-3 days of trying to figure it out, I just fdisk'd the drive and specified the c/h/s in the advanced mode. So now it saw a 75 gig drive with a 13 gig partition. Then to the storage. 2 of the disks were to be bonded in a RAID0 stripe. To get the linux kernel to detect the RAID device at boot required a kernel patch, using alpha code. Got that in, and the raid setup went ok. But until the raid patch gets integrated, i need to make sure that I install this patch to new kernel source tree, or my RAID will not be auto detected. Not terrible, but not great either. Get all of that working, get the NFS exporting. Everything is happy, but the NFS performance is lacking... frequent timeouts, retries etc... This is NOT a busy network. There are only 2 people using this server frequently, and the files are exported to a total of 8 machines, with a maximum of 12 users. New kernels and new knfsd implemenations have known bugs, so I'm kind of stuck back to older versions. So, to the FreeBSD version. Setup went fine. No conflicts with the IDE/SCSI setup. No trouble building a new kernel, installing it, etc. Vinum proved to be very easy to set up (I just used a default vinum -stripe configuration) So far no NFS errors, but it's only been a day, so it's a bit early to tell.

The so-called ``logical drives in the extended DOS partition'' (yes, it's called that way) are numbered starting with 5 after the primary partitions. In other words: da0s1 - da0s4 are your four primary partitions (you cannot have more than four of them), and da0s5 is your first logical drive in the extended DOS partition, da0s6 is the second one, etc. (Assuming that you have SCSI disks. If you have IDE disks, substitute ``wd'' or ``ad'' for ``da'', as appropriate.) Note that the extended stuff always starts at 5, even if you have fewer than four primary partitions. (Technically, there are _always_ four primary partition entries, but some of them may be empty / unused.) So you can basically ``disklabel -w -r da0s5 auto'', then edit the disklabel as appropriate, then newfs your partition(s). Refer to ``man 8 disklabel'' and ``man newfs'' for details. I think this is also in the FAQ / Handbook...

The other reason I want the hub (or small switch, if I can find the cash) is because I have friends who want to play games on Windoze (I dual boot FreeBSD and Windoze 98). That way, I can have some friends come over with their machines and set up a game fest, perhaps using my FreeBSD box as a server (there is a port for Quakeserver, a popular game). So, basically my question is, how is the FA310TX as far as reliability and speed? Was it an easy setup? Is it a reasonably fast card (as far as 100 mbps NIC's go)?

So, uhh... How do I actually go about doing such a thing? You are right. As long as at least one process keeps the file opened, it's data does exist on the disk. The problem is that there is no directory entry anymore that references the inode. You can recover this with the ``fsdb'' tool. However, be VERY careful. You can destroy the filesystem with fsdb if you're doing the wrong things. I'd recommend that you read the manual page of fsdb carefully. Having that said, recovering a reference to an existing inode is easy if you know the inode number. Just change to any directory on the filesystem which contains the inode, then type (at the fsdb prompt): ``ln 42 foobar'', where 42 is the inode number, and foobar is the name of the entry that shall be created in the current directory as a reference for that inode. then exit fsdb. That's it. You might want to do an fsck afterwards, just to be sure that everything is alright, but it shouldn't be necessary.

From what I understand, the ensoniq 1370 is well supported, while the 1371 is not. So I made the decision to spend $30 dollars for an OSS driver(www.4front-tech.com).

I use ipfw on my machine. Has your rc.firewall script become corrupted? You should be able to enter some manual commands from your firewall script to verify that your system is forwarding packets and filtering properly. If you enter "ipfw -F; ipfw add pass any from any via fxp0" or whatever your network card is, your network should open up and act ok. This would indicate you have a syntax error in your script.

I am trying to install a pci NIC as de0 (it's a GFC2204 which is compatible with the DEC21x4x supposedly). 1. Is there a better driver, perhaps a DEC22x4x driver, available (at a later release perhaps)? 2. according to /stand/help/hardware.hlp.gz the de0 driver cannot determine port, IRQ, DRQ, or IOMem address. Does this mean that I have to specify this information in the kernel config? 2b) if so, I know it is at IRQ 11 and the BIOS tells me it is using Mem address of 1000-107F; what is the device line going to look like? 3. dmesg gives me the following: pci0:13: vendor=0x1256, device=0x1400, class network (ethernet) int a irq 11 [no driver assigned] What exactly does this tell me/what does it mean?

I forgot to mention this in my initial mail, but I think there should be a very "safe" way to do all of this. There really is no reason to save the exact same bits that are there now on the disk. I'd be perfectly happy to just copy the "deleted" file into a fresh new file, then let the old one disappear when I close the program. This reduces the problem to simply being able to open a FILE stream or file descriptor from just knowing the inode... which I am not familiar with doing and have not been able to track down in the manpages (even after having fsdb(8) pointed out to me).

IP based mail filtering is in the most scenarios only a solution for the worst case, constant attacks or tries on your mailer daemon or denial of service attacks. Instead, you should read the sendmail documentation for prevention against misusing your mailer and filtering e-mail. First of all, don't permit relaying for domains and/or hosts you don't to relay for. This is the default for sendmail starting with version 8.9.x and it checks the DNS MX records if your host is a valid MX for a domain and decided by this, if it takes the mail or not. You can also include several black lists into sendmail from projects that collect data about repeating SPAM from hosts so you can at least include well-known spammer sites to block them from yours. We did so at a private ISP I do administration work for, and it reduced our non-wanted crap to almost nothing.

In theory, it should work on a live filesystem, but since fsdb is working on the raw device, it circumvents the FS driver, which might cause problems. It's probably a good idea to umount the partition and perform fsck afterwards.

Once you rm the last directory entry that references the inode (i.e. the link counter of the inode is zero), there is no file anymore. There's only an orphaned inode. You can only copy files, not inodes, so you first have to "fake" a new entry for that inode to create a file. As far as I know, fsdb is the only way to do this (and this is only a "hack", of course, it is not supposed to be a clean way to recover files).

It means that none of the drivers in your kernel recognized the card. In other words: when your PCI bus controller driver found that PCI card, it asked around all your drivers ``OK, here's a card with vendor ID xxx and device ID yyy -- so which of you can drive this thing?'', and all drivers just shaked their heads. If you're _really_ sure that the chip on that card is 100% hardware compatible with DEC 21x4x, you could hack the de0 driver to accept that particular vendor/device IDs. Then rebuild your kernel, reboot, and see what happens... You could also avoid all of that hassle and just buy a real DEC card (or some reasonable clone, like the Macronix MX) for ~ $20.

No it doesn't answer my question. Someone suggested that I look at vr instead of de ... anyone have a link suggestion for research? It doesn't make much sense for me to go through the irritation of rebuilding the machine if there is no solution to my problem. Also, I object to the predominant attitude that 2.2.8 is old.

I decided to recompile the kernel to get my NIC working and to remove unwanted devices. I did: /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL, cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL, make depend, make, make install. No error messages were recieved. However, when I reboot, it appears that the original kernel is being booted. All the devices I removed from MYKERNEL show up with "dmesg." More importantly, it is trying to initialze my NIC with parameters other then the ones I put in MYKERNEL. My NIC is a 3c503. When I boot I get the message "ed0 not found at io 280", or something like that. Could someone tell what gives? Also, what value should I use for the iomem parameter?

You can think what you wanna think. If the system is built and working, then I say leave it alone. If it is new, then go with the current flow.

I did. But nothing seems to change. In terminal mode I can see lines consisting "AUTHPROT=(PAP)" or something similiar to it. My windows connection which has no problem in connecting to the same server includes a checked-box indicating software compression enabled. Also in terminal session, as far as I can see, there is a problem in authentication, because my username and password (shown as ********) seems to be sent 2-3 times. Another (silly?) question is: If I can get connected in terminal mode, do I stay connected after starting X? Thanks in advance...

There are many. I use tar. Others use dump. When making the choice, remember that you can read tapes written by tar on just about any machine. If you use dump, you're pretty well restricted to BSD, and I'm not even sure if you can read a FreeBSD dump on other flavours of BSD.

If you're really set on using Unix, you might want to consider an eMachines $400 computer to use as a router-like device. I've heard that Windows 98 SE has something called "Internet Sharing" which sounded a lot like a weird NAT/DHCP system. > As for ISDN....it seems the ISDN uses the same sort of conditioned line as > DSL.

If you can get the line itself from the telco instead of the ISP perhaps you could then find an ISP somewhere else on that telco's network which would be willing to send IP services over the telco's system and into your T1. I couldn't tell from your letter if Covad was the telco or ISP. > anyhow....will have to wait out this Cable modem issue until the new two way > modems are released....they told me they would be out in 98....still > waiting. Good luck. I know that waiting for high speed connections is really depressing. You should ask your ISP if they'll support an ISDN connection, though. Those *do* work over FreeBSD, even if the ISP doesn't officially support them. Just reboot into Windows while the techs are there and then reboot back into FreeBSD and try to configure it. You can even avoid the $0.01/channel/minute charges by using data-over-voice for a 112 Kbps connection instead of a data-over-data connection of 128Kbps.

Yes, we also need to get the hot-swap PnP events (and I think ACPI in modern systems) to do this properly. The new ata driver also needs work for devices that go away suddenly as well, which may fall out from the pccard stuff. The floppy driver may also need work.

The web access in question is to their email, bookmarks, calendar, etc. via a PHP3 program called TWIG. File sharing access is via NetATalk and Samba. I've also added a password changing web page that uses a CGI to pull off its tricks. My problem comes in when I need to install a disk quota system in the next few weeks. How do I notify the users of their disk usage? If there was a way to do this with PHP3, I could plug it right into TWIG and let them see it when they check their email. If there was a way to get the netatalk-asun port to report available disk space as thedisk quota and not the remaining space on the partition, then I would tell users to check it that way. (95% of our workstations are running MacOS 8.1 or higher, there are very few Windows computers at my job.) Does anyone have a suggestion on this? Is there something on freshmeat.net that I didn't see? Any web based or netatalk based solutions would be greatly appreciated. Of course, if there's another solution that I overlooked, that would be great, too. :) The only way that I've come up with to date is emailing all users their quota each night, but if they're over quota, then they wouldn't be able to receive that email.... :( Thanks in advance, Jaime P.S. - I've tried to email this to the mailing list twice before and have yet to see it come back from the mailing list.

But if its one of the cards that I think it is, maybe these kernel config options will be of use to you: Add this: device pcm0 Comment out all VoxWare drivers, such as snd0, sb0, sbxvi0, etc. This worked for me. Also of possible note: CHIPSET: ESS1868 ESS688 http://www.esstech.com pnp 1 1 os enable irq0 7 drq0 1 port0 0x220 There used to be documentation for the 1868 on the ESS site (files ds1868b1.pdf and ds1868b2.pdf) but I am unable to find it now (980122). I have asked ESS but no reply so far. partly supported in SB emulation. (the ESS688 is used on many notebooks. It is probably able to do 8 and 16-bit, half duplex). That was from the file /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/snd/CARDS on my 3.2-RELEASE system.

It is a much weaker solution than some of the alternatives, but TWIG (http://twig.screwdriver.net) is a decent groupware program which only requires a web browser (even lynx works!) on the client end. Since it stores most of its data via a mix of IMAP and an SQL server, it might be possible to "roll your own" solution for connecting it to Exchange. Its GPLed and has a few mailing lists and a CVS server dedicated to its development. At the moment the calendaring functions are rather minimal, but they are probably the next major focus of the developers, as I understand it. I don't get a chance to read every email on twig-devel, but I do run the CVS server from a server at my job. I've seen a great deal of progress on the program since setting up the CVS server for them and honestly have lost track of the source code because of how quickly the main developers have added and improved things. In the last six months its gone from a decent web-email program to a great web-email program with a large API for expanding it and lots of configuration options for both the user and administrator.

It depends on how you will use it and how familiar you are with different databases. If you're comfortable with SQL, I'd suggest using MySQL. Its easy to install (su root -c "cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql322 ; make install"), it is free for non-commercial use, is threaded for multiple user access performance boosts, and a lot of web interface programs use it either by default or as an option. I use MySQL on a K6-II with 128MB of RAM which also serves as an email server, DHCP for 5 large ethernet LANs, DNS serving and resolving, web serving, etc. and haven't noticed any problems with performance dispight loading so many services onto the same computer. I also use MySQL as my database for Ministry of Truth and TWIG. With these two programs, I have web-based interfaces to computer and software inventory, repair logs, To Do lists for all users, groupware calendaring, and more. On a personal computer I run a WWWThreads bulliten board. Its another web interface program which uses MySQL as a database. So MySQL is working quite well for me. But mostly because of these other programs which were written to use it. So look at what you want to do with a database and see if MySQL can fill that need. You might also be interested in the mSQL and MySQL book from O'Riely and Assoc. (www.ora.com) Its good for someone who is familiar with database basics but not mSQL or MySQL specifically. It will even show how to write programs which interface to those databases. If you decide that you like mSQL better, that program is also in the FreeBSD ports collection.

A Celeron, straight out of the box, doesn't run a fast as a P-II or P-III. The memory runs at 66Mhz instead of 100Mhz. A IDE HD that is capable of UDMA33 will produce much different results than one that is only capable of 16MB/s. The flags on your IDE controller can change through put by a factor of 4x.

What happens when you try this: ppp term atdt1234567 (where 1234567 is replaced by your ISP's phone #) Your modem should dial, and you should be presented with a login prompt. If you can login successfully in term mode, you have an error in your ppp script--so send along the latest version. If you can't login in term mode, you have other problems which someone more experienced than I may be able to help you with. > Another (silly?) question is: If I can get connected in terminal mode, do I > stay connected after starting X?

Jaime ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 26 Dec 1999 18:39:48 -0500 (EST) From: Jaime Kikpole To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Disk quota & informing non-shell users At work I have about 1000 (soon to be as many as 2000) users who are limited to web-based and file-sharing access to their main server. The web access in question is to their email, bookmarks, calendar, etc. via a PHP3 program called TWIG. File sharing access is via NetATalk and Samba. I've also added a password changing web page that uses a CGI to pull off its tricks. My problem comes in when I need to install a disk quota system in the next few weeks. How do I notify the users of their disk usage? If there was a way to do this with PHP3, I could plug it right into TWIG and let them see it when they check their email. If there was a way to get the netatalk-asun port to report available disk space as thedisk quota and not the remaining space on the partition, then I would tell users to check it that way. (95% of our workstations are running MacOS 8.1 or higher, there are very few Windows computers at my job.) Does anyone have a suggestion on this? Is there something on freshmeat.net that I didn't see? Any web based or netatalk based solutions would be greatly appreciated. Of course, if there's another solution that I overlooked, that would be great, too. :) The only way that I've come up with to date is emailing all users their quota each night, but if they're over quota, then they wouldn't be able to receive that email.... :( Thanks in advance, Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 19:29:17 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from 24-25-220-29.san.rr.com (24-25-220-29.san.rr.com [24.25.220.29]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E202615323 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:29:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Received: from gateway.gorean.org (gateway.gorean.org [10.0.0.1]) by 24-25-220-29.san.rr.com (8.9.3/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA69002; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:29:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:28:42 -0800 (PST) From: Doug Barton X-Sender: doug@24-25-220-29.san.rr.com To: Soulofwolf899@cs.com Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Before I return FreeBSD to the store...

With all due respect, it's really not our fault if you don't have your CDROM manual, and can't figure out how to properly set the jumpers.

Do you have any experience with any form of Unix or Unix-like operating system, such as BSDi, Solaris, Ultrix, AIX, SunOS, any Linux distrobution, NeXTStep, etc.? If you have no prior Unix experience at all, the job that you described is probably going to be too much for you to do before taking a few weeks of intensive self-training with FreeBSD. If you do have any level of experience with administrating a Unix or Unix-like system, then you should start your research with the FreeBSD handbook, which you can find either on the FreeBSD CD-ROMs or at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook. You should also buy a copy of The Complete FreeBSD, which is an excellent reference book.

The web access in question is to their email, bookmarks, calendar, etc. via a PHP3 program called TWIG. File sharing access is via NetATalk and Samba. I've also added a password changing web page that uses a CGI to pull off its tricks. My problem comes in when I need to install a disk quota system in the next few weeks. How do I notify the users of their disk usage? If there was a way to do this with PHP3, I could plug it right into TWIG and let them see it when they check their email. If there was a way to get the netatalk-asun port to report available disk space as thedisk quota and not the remaining space on the partition, then I would tell users to check it that way. (95% of our workstations are running MacOS 8.1 or higher, there are very few Windows computers at my job.) Does anyone have a suggestion on this? Is there something on freshmeat.net that I didn't see? Any web based or netatalk based solutions would be greatly appreciated. Of course, if there's another solution that I overlooked, that would be great, too. :) The only way that I've come up with to date is emailing all users their quota each night, but if they're over quota, then they wouldn't be able to receive that email.... :( Thanks in advance, Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 19:41:43 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp.nwlink.com (smtp.nwlink.com [209.20.130.57]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 537F514D63 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:41:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rjoseph@nwlink.com) Received: from nwlink.com (ip218.r4.d.bel.nwlink.com [207.202.172.218]) by smtp.nwlink.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA02875 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:41:41 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <386C2545.30E70C85@nwlink.com> Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 19:38:45 -0800 From: R Joseph Wright X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: weirdness with a directory named ~ References: <199912301957.NAA03319@D2SI.COM> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > 1) Don't crosspost.

Well, most of us subscribe to more than one list, and we get a lot of e-mail traffic. It's a little irritating getting multiple copies of the same e-mail sent to -questions, -stable, -newbies, -current, -security, -hardware, and whatever else... Just post one copy in one location, if you don't get an answer try somewhere else later.

(I'd go into details about how this happened but I'm sure I sound stupid enough already :) ) Here's the situation, I was/am triple booting FreeBSD/Win98/WinNT Between two drives. The M$ OSes share a 27GB drive, while FreeBSD was running happliy on a 12GB drive. In repairing the Windows Drive I made a mistake using M$ FDISK and erased the FreeBSD partition on the FreeBSD Drive. After cursing a few times, I decided to do somehting about it. I knew that I had made my whole drive FreeBSD, and that it wasn't "dangerously dedicated" so I thought the first thing to try is writing a new partition entry. So I did using a linux disk I have. (I knew he linux fdisk I had only wrote the partition table, so it wouldn't corrupt anything extra (providing the MS FDISK didn't erase anytihng extra)) This worked, mostly. I could once again boot into FreeBSD, and it mounted MOST of my drives with less complaining than I would have expected. Except for /usr. /usr has some SUPERBLOCK errors which I can't seem to get rid of. (failure to read block 16, 17, 18 or something similar, sorry for vaugeness) I of course know very little about FreeBSD filesystem structure. But I have an idea of what may be the problem. Though I could be completely wrong about this. I seem to recall FreeBSD not using ALL of my disk, but rather a very small portion of it was unused. Since my new partition entry claims to use everthing, the new partition would be slightly larger than the old. This might leave a gap at the end of my final slice in that partition which happens to be /usr. If that sounds reasonable, I then need to do one of two things: A) Calculate the partition would be using FreeBSD's fdisk and create a new entry using that data. and hope it works. B) Boot off a FreeBSD CD and use its fdisk to write a new partition table (IE let FreeBSD do B for me) I prefer B, that it relies on FreeBSD NOT writing anything beyond a partition table. I don't know if this is the case. (Is it?) Both rely on my earlier assumptions being true, are they? Are they even resonable? Perhaps there are some nice flags for fsck I should be using that would fix the disk for me? Any assistance would be appreciated. I also could use a sugesstions for a good low cost backup solutions that could be used for say backing up 12Gigs of FreeBSD :) Again, thanks for any and all assistance in my salvage attempt. Perhaps I should pay more attention to thos warning messages next time. -Steve *=====================================================* \ Ford Prefect Ahead of my time. \ \ fordp@guide.chi.il.us but only by a week. \ \ homepage.interaccess.com/~fordp \ \ \ \ ((In esperanto where available)) \ *=====================================================* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 20:35:34 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fw.wintelcom.net (ns1.wintelcom.net [209.1.153.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 21D5B14C32 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 20:35:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bright@wintelcom.net) Received: from localhost (bright@localhost) by fw.wintelcom.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id VAA09833; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 21:08:55 -0800 (PST) Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 21:08:55 -0800 (PST) From: Alfred Perlstein To: Jesse Tilly Cc: Ben Smithurst , John Brooks , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Leave In Kernel?

Leaving out the printer isn't so bad, but i'm very annoyed when a customer comments out a serial port because then it becomes pretty rough if a network appliance of thiers needs a serial hookup.

Check the handbook's hardware listing (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html#INSTALL-HW) for a list of supported SCSI RAID cards. Another idea is ccd. Check "man 4 ccd" for details about it. If I recall correctly, you'll have to compile the ccd driver into the kernel and then do a bunch of configuring. This should let you make several partitions become one continuous disk. (In other words, two 1GB partions become a 2GB virtual partion.) The third idea is vinum. Check "man 8 vinum" for details about that. Again, I think that you need to compile it into the kernel. The main benefit of vinum over ccd is that it allows configurations which act like software controlled RAID-5 arrays. Support for vinum (especially its RAID-5) is supposed to be much better in FreeBSD 3.4 than in 3.2. If you go this route, look into using cvsup to upgrade your installation. (I've used this to go from 2.2.5 to 2.2.8 and 3.0 to 3.2 in the past without any real problems. Going from 2.2.8 to 3.0 turned out to be impossible at my skill level, though. Be careful to read everything and make backups before using cvsup!)

Again, I think that you need to compile it into the kernel. No, vinum is a KLD, a dynamically loaded kernel module. See vinum(4), "KERNEL CONFIGURATION vinum is currently supplied as a kernel loadable module (kld), and does not require configuration. As with other klds, it is absolutely neces- sary to match the kld to the version of the operating system. Failure to do so will cause vinum to issue an error message and terminate. It is possible to configure vinum in the kernel, but this is not recom- mended. To do so, add this line to the kernel configuration file: pseudo-device vinum" A kernel rebuild is _NOT_ required and the docs actually recommend that it not be done. -- Crist J.

Are you sure about the vendor ID? Might it be 125B? In this case it is an ASIX Tulip clone (AX88140/88141) which is close but not quite compatible.

FreeBSD's tar is GNU tar, which doesn't even write POSIX ustar archives. As soon as you are running into things such as path names >100 characters, GNU tar will resort to proprietary extensions that are not generally understood by other tars. Also, GNU tar can't handle all of FreeBSD's device nodes. You don't have an index--looking up a file requires reading through all the archive--and there is no internal buffering, which depending on the peculiars of your system may require workarounds with ports/misc/buffer or ports/misc/team to keep your drive streaming. If I wanted to use tar, I'd at least use ports/sysutils/star. > If you use dump, you're pretty well restricted to BSD, Coincidental emperic evidence suggests that dumps are compatible across FreeBSD-Linux-Solaris. > and I'm not even sure if you can read a FreeBSD dump on other > flavours of BSD. Let's see... Now restoring the dump of a root partition of a FreeBSD/i386 box on OpenBSD/sparc... Works like charm. The device nodes are truncated to OpenBSDish 8-bit minor numbers. Oops.

Actually, Warner's pccard work has little or nothing to do with this particular case. Depending on how the 'hot-swap' bay is implemented, it's probably hooked by the PnP BIOS as a 'docking station', or detailed by the ACPI data provided by the BIOS. Making 'hot plug' of these devices (hot swap is almost certainly not feasible) work will require proper newbus-ification of the ata and fd drivers, and some hooks to detect their departure/arrival. These are probably worth doing for docking station support as welll. Reprobe-on-resume is kinda tough; you need to refuse to suspend if any device that is marked 'removable' is open/configured (this has to include pccards) or similar... -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 30 22:39: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from buffy.tpgi.com.au (buffy.tpgi.com.au [203.12.160.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 75D3714D2F for ; Thu, 30 Dec 1999 22:38:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marcd@tpg.com.au) Received: (from smtpd@localhost) by buffy.tpgi.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) id RAA19316 for ; Fri, 31 Dec 1999 17:38:46 +1100 Received: from adl-56k-150.tpgi.com.au(203.29.136.150), claiming to be "zen.dodsworth.org" via SMTP by buffy.tpgi.com.au, id smtpdjE3qP4; Fri Dec 31 17:38:42 1999 From: Marc Dodsworth To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: BRU Backup software Date: Fri, 31 Dec 1999 17:04:44 +1030 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <99123117081400.10894@zen.dodsworth.org> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I've been thing of ordering the BRU backup software from FreeBSD Mall.

The solution is to type in: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/sv001.tmp &&export LD_LIBRARY_PATH Now, try it. After you've installed it, you may run into a couple of bugs that are widely known and have easy fixes. You need to replace the file path/to/Office51/bin/applicat.rdb with one from a linux box. This is available on the web at: www.stat.duke.edu/~sto/StarOffice51a The other bug has to do with a patch to procfs_status.c. Since you're running 3.3, I believe this will not be an issue. If I recall correctly, that is only for 3.2 and prior. After you run ./setup /net, you'll need to do a workstation installation which adds only a few megabytes to your home directory as opposed to 176 megabytes. There was a strange kind of thing that happened when I did it. I had to use the ./soffice command to run the setup as user, instead of running ./setup again. But it wasn't a problem. After that step was finished, the ./soffice command started up the program normally.

I just started a job where we exclusively use BRU for all our tape backups. It is _definitely_ worth the money. I am not used to paying for software, but I would feel good about spending money on this one. I think my boss said it was around a few hundred dollars... I haven't looked myself. I find it very easy to use and it makes it very easy to verify the backups you make. All you have to do is spend an afternoon reading the manual and play around with it and you should become very comfortable with it. I don't have any experience with any other commercial backup software, but compared to tar, I would definitely recommend it. It can do backups both of filesystems and of raw partitions.

I specifly looking for the ability to backup multiple machines to a single tape server machine, and to have the ability to controll a automatic tape changer. So far amanda does what I need, but it doesn't support writing a backup across more than one tape, or to write to multiple tape drives if the tape library has more than one tape writer. BRU didn't look like a good match, but I'd be interested in the experience of someone who's actually used it.

My connection between FreeBSD and Windows was mostly at 10baseT sort of speed, and at times it would have been quicker to span an archive across floppy disks and copy data manually, even though the cards and hub were all working at 100baseTX. This completely baffled me, as I expected the card to just work. But anyway, I took both of the FA310TX cards and the DS104 hub back to the shop, and exchanged them for couple of LinkSys LNE100TX boards, and a LinkSys Hub, and got them back home - tested them out - and *exactly* the same thing happened. I spent a good few days trying to work it out, and in the meantime took back the LinkSys kit, and bought two 3Com 3c905C-TX cards, and the original DS104 hub. Everything works perfectly now, but I have still not worked out the problem. I did buy an extra FA310TX so I could spend a few more days messing with it, but I havent yet had the time. After spending a lot of time talking to lots of different people about it (I add that noone seemed to be too bothered about it, which dissapoints me), the general concensus is that the drivers are young. Whether I am supposed to take this as "the work on the drivers has only just begun" or "the drivers have been around for a while, but they havent got very far" I dont know. On the other side of the coin, I do know people who have had no problems at all with either of those particular cards. My advice would be to go with a 3com or Intel card if you can afford it. If not, make sure you are able to return the card(s) if you cannot get them working.

Basically, what I have found in the past is that there is a general rule of thumb when installing CD-Rom devices / hard drives. It only seems to affect FreeBSD (*shrug*). Depending on how many IDE devices you have, the configuration slightly differs, but here are two configurations that have worked for me. 2 IDE devices - 1 HDD, and 1 CD-Rom IDE0 Master HDD Slave - IDE1 Master CD-Rom Slave - 3 IDE devices - 2 HDD's and 1 CD-Rom IDE0 Master HDD Slave - IDE1 Master HDD Slave CD-Rom and on another machine, this configuration worked: IDE0 Master HDD Slave HDD IDE1 Master CD-Rom Slave - Without knowing more information about your setup, I'm not sure how else I can help (I'm not entirely sure I'm an authoritive source anyway). Please bear in mind that the only symptoms I have suffered previously have been my CD-Rom mysteriously disappearing, which I have cured with one of the above configurations. But, we all know all too well that the same bug can manifest itself in different ways with different effects. Good luck! :) Cliff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 31 5:34:38 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mgr3.k12.mo.us (bsd.mgr3.k12.mo.us [204.184.227.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4E011154A9 for ; Fri, 31 Dec 1999 05:34:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us) Received: from redmobile ([172.16.0.5]) by mgr3.k12.mo.us (8.9.3/8.9.2) with SMTP id HAA50020; Fri, 31 Dec 1999 07:44:21 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us) From: Support Reply-To: rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us Organization: Mountain Grove R3 Schools To: jaime@malkav.snowmoon.com Subject: RE: Disk quota & informing non-shell users Date: Fri, 31 Dec 1999 06:28:05 -0600 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain Cc: questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <99123106404700.00939@redmobile> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings, This is the script I use for quota notification for both shell and non-shell access accounts.

You should remember your video card model if you plan on using X, your modem, and any other non-standard devices (IE, you have an (E)IDE controller, not some Promise Ultra66 you have to remember). A thing that could be helpful though is opening the system part in the control panel, choose computer in the device manager, and click the "Print" button. This would print a summary of the hardware on your computer. > c) when I try to install from a CD - the first screen shows a number of > conflicts in device drivers and asks me to disable some of them - on what > basis I am supposed to disable the drivers and what happens if I incorrectly > disable some of them The installation kernel comes with support for many devices, most of which you probably don't have, and some conflict. The idea is to disable anything you don't have.

But this is also because I've used Linux before, which means I went through a similar proccess and already knew my hardware, knew what warnings to ignore, and was familiar with the Unix environment. Don't take me wrong though, installing Linux was a royal pain in the a**, as I assume installing fbsd for the first time can be. It's not that difficult though, and you'de probably wade through it somehow :P. Anyways, good luck!

If you check in f2c.h, you'll see the appropriate declarations. I tried this on a small program block, and found the first time I used the include I needed to omit the -E option in the first file in which the include was used, otherwise, every object assumes the named common is external and it never gets declared. :-) I don't have time to check this on the gnu site, but I think there is a modifier you may include somewhere in the common block statement, such as ALIAS, or EXTERN. I just cannot remember. I have an old molecular orbital calculation program that I ported to f77/f2c and I ended up creating a dummy BLOCK DATA subprogram to contain all named commons. Then all other files referred to all named commons as external. Hope this helps, and sorry I am not clearer on the details. You may find more help on the gnu site.

Then when he booted the machine right after finding the hard drives. The machine was giving segmentation fault. (I think after writing 'changing root device to...') We tried to boot with GENERIC kernel and old kernels. We got the same fault again and again. But the machine is getting opened in single user mode. Even we issue boot -s at the boot time the machine is giving segmentation fault warning and then getting opened in single user mode. If we exit the single user mode we get the same segmentation fault error and machine crashes completely. What can be the cause? We were using 3.3-STABLE.

I would like to setup a firewall/NAT box for a small LAN. I have setup and used FreeBSD 3.2 and 3.3 for this in the past without problems. This time; however, I need to put a mail server behind the firewall/NAT box. Here's the description: There are 2 public IPs available: 139.142.150.29 - assigned for mail in MX record 139.142.150.39 - assigned for NAT/LAN traffic Private IP scheme: 192.168.1.1 - mail server behind firewall Two NICs: de0 - public de1 - private My proposed solution is to redirect 139.142.150.29 to 192.168.1.1 using the 'redirect_address' option. In the rc.conf: - ifconfig_de0="inet 139.142.150.39 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_de0_alias="inet 139.162.150.39 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_de1="inet 192.168.1.254 netmask 255.255.255.0" natd_program="/bin/natd -redirect_address 192.168.1.1 139.162.150.29" - My firewall ruleset first passes everything to natd and allows for port 25 traffic to be passed into and out of the LAN (pop3 support is only needed within the LAN). My questions are: 1. Will this work? 2. Do I need to add additional comments to '-redirect_address'? Such as: -redirect_address 192.168.1.1 139.162.150.29 #redirect traffic to mail server -redirect_address 0.0.0.0 139.162.150.39 #redirect traffic to LAN - Is this necessary? My biggest challenge is that I must build this and set it up in a remote area, so testing will be difficult. If I have missed any information, please let me know and I will provide it. Any comments on what I have said here would be most appreciated.

I love it! :-) I would also recommend buying the cd's. They are well worth the money, especially if you lose a HD etc... There are a few of us that are talking a little bit about forming some sort of informal AFUG (Alberta FreeBSD Users Group). If you are interested please let me know. Also, if we do set one up, would you be at all interested in hosting a private irc server? You could be reimbursed for it somehow... Also, I would recommend going to www.freebsd.org and looking under documentation/newbies for a doc called "For People new to both FreeBSD and Unix". That one really helped me.

Tell them not to delete them. :-) Technically, there is no way. If you can write to the file, you can effectively delete it. Well, you could make them append-only (see ``man chflags'') and raise the secure-level (see ``man init''), but bash probably doesn't like this, because it wants to overwrite the file.

But you are saying the system locked up. Compile a debug kernel also including the kernel debugger. See if you can panic the machine next time this happens.

The process is in the "iowait" state. Such a process does not receive any signals, because it is blocked on I/O and it is not scheduled for CPU. This is usually an indication of a hardware problem (i.e. with your tape drive). > # kill -9 5959 > # > > No error at all. :-/ Of course kill doesn't report an error, because it successfully added a SIGKILL to the queue (or mask) of signals pending for reception by that process. You first have to solve the hardware problem, so that the process is not blocked anymore. Then it will disappear. This should be in the FAQ...

First, all my information I got from archives of FreeBSD mailing lists at lists.openresources.com/FreeBSD. I didn't have to replace the setup and soffice scripts, although there is a modification to the soffice script that needs to be done after the setup program has been run: replace the line *) test=/usr/bin/test ;; with *) test=bin/test ;; replace the line if $test -L "$0" ; then with if $test -f "$0" ; then and replace the line sd_script='ls -l $0 | sed "s/.*${sd_basename} -> //g"` with sd_script='ls $0 | sed "s/.*${sd_basename} -> //g"` And of course there is the need to recompile your kernel to include these options: options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" (You should probably do the recompile before anything else) After that, it ought to run properly. That's how I did it. Best regards, Joseph -- You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm. Colette.

The problem I am facing is that I do not want to split my IP subnet any further for the purpose of routing therefore I need to do kernel bridging. I assume your ep0 interface (without IP) is connected directly to a router and is your external interface on the firewall box? Thanks and happy new century!

Everything its possible, but like I told you If you change the SCSI card & disks to another computer and it also fails, then your card its definitely the faulty one, but if the other computer doesnt fail at all, then you have a bigger problem with the other computer, I would check first the Fan in the CPU (for avoiding overheating), then NIC (my server crashed each time when I was booting into multi-user mode when my 3com card failed completely), then Memory (swapping with another one), CPU & Mother Board finally. P.S. It could be also the slot where you are installing the card. Good Luck... Ales > Evren > > >From: "Alejandro Ramirez" > >To: "Evren Yurtesen" , > > > >Subject: RE: segmentation fault at boot!

I think you mention that this machine has 2 drives - if so, it might be worth the pain to rearrange your partitioning so that the swap is spread equally over both drives, as I understand that FreeBSD interleaves access to swap (probably works better with SCSI than IDE though...). You mention that your current kernel is ~1.5M - just for reference I have a 2.2.6R server (486) with a ~1.15M kernel (2.2.6R GENERIC is ~1.5M) and a 3.2R SMP workstation (C300Ax2) with a ~1.75M kernel (3.2R GENERIC is ~2.3M). Both boxes have a trimmed config, though the 3.2 box has sound and a couple of other "extras". -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

That won't prevent from ``cp /dev/null .bash_history'' to effectively delete the history. Sue, why do you want to have the users' history files preserved anyway? If this is for user monitoring, then it is a bad way. It is unreliable and can easily be faked and forged. Better use process accounting for this (see ``man lastcomm'' and ``man 8 sa'').

Or is that too early? I need all the disks to have been dismounted. or at least mounted as read only when this action takes place.

They provided me with a SpeedStreem 3060 internel PCI "modem" card from Efficient Networks, Inc. instead of an external interface with an ethernet connection (as was promised.) After some digging around, I determined that the card is running ppp on top of ATM. Why it is done this way is beyond me. Maybe it has to do with the fact that ATM is session oriented and this is a "cheap" way of building a session. Has anyone had any experience getting such a card to work on FreeBSD? If not, are there people who have started work on building a device driver for such a card? I am not sure if I will be able to convince PacBell to give me the other interface.

Don't do it with a pipe, just use the z option to tar (or save your self some more space and use the y option to bzip2 the output).

From the man page, "man tar", the documentation discusses using the -z switch to filter all i/o thru gzip. If you are saving directly to tape, you can also specify --block-compress to end all blocks on an even length boundary. So, based on the man page, I would say that you could add a lower case "-z" switch to your tar statement and end up with a .tgz. > > I know it is possible to do that as one step > by using the pipe, but not sure of the exact > command line, I appreciate giving me a hint. > I would guess that you don't even have to use a pipe based on the man page.

What is a good program to use to see if I can really tell a difference? I tried out some of my bigger programs like star office and gimp. Star Office still took a little while to load, gimp seemed to fly (when it wasn't crashing). Thanks a lot for all the help. I'm starting to understand the hexadecimal thing a bit more now.

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 breaking 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, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. 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, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing 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 almost 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. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. 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. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. 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 out 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 don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. 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 follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: 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 you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. 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?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. 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. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. 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. 11. 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 computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: 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-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.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-3.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 Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) 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 second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: 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.

This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book 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. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD 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 ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). 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 Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -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. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. 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- featured 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 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. 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 documentation 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 character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, 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 printer 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 distribution 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 5 General changes 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 Configuration 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 Index, 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 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example 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 simultane- ously within 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 Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. 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 initialization 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 Page 9 Install ports when installing the system 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 individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment 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 latest 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: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 system. 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. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system 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 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. 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 assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy 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 device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 directory 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 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system 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: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. 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 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. 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/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. 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 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. 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 Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding 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 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. 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 Page 21 Install ports when installing the system 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 important: 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've had to tinker with it a bit so far, add defines for SHUT_RDWR, SHUT_RD, and SHUT_WR and add #include to channels.c. Now I'm stuck in sshd.c which is trying to include poll.h which doesn't exist anywhere on my system. From what I can see its related to threads? Where would I pick up this include file? Or alternatively, how does one successfully install openssh on a 2.2.8 box? Any hints appreciated. ______________________________________________________________________ Darren Henderson darren@nighttide.net Help fight junk e-mail, visit http://www.cauce.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 31 18:49:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 12CB814DCF for ; Fri, 31 Dec 1999 18:49:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id NAA14182; Sat, 1 Jan 2000 13:19:04 +1030 (CST) Date: Sat, 1 Jan 2000 13:19:04 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Marc Dodsworth Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: vinum question (warning long message) Message-ID: <20000101131904.I1528@freebie.lemis.com> References: <99123123443500.00997@zen.dodsworth.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i In-Reply-To: <99123123443500.00997@zen.dodsworth.org> WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog X-PGP-Fingerprint: 6B 7B C3 8C 61 CD 54 AF 13 24 52 F8 6D A4 95 EF 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 Friday, 31 December 1999 at 23:31:39 +1030, Marc Dodsworth wrote: > Hi > > Got a little problem with vinum. > > I am creating a Raid5 array using 5 x 300Mb drives and have a little problem. > > Then I can create the file array with "vinum create zen) and it works fine. > Configuration summary > > > > V RAID State: down Plexes: 1 Size: 1200 MB > > P RAID.p0 R5 State: init Subdisks: 5 Size: 1200 MB > > S RAID.p0.s0 State: empty PO: 0 B Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s1 State: empty PO: 32 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s2 State: empty PO: 64 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s3 State: empty PO: 96 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s4 State: empty PO: 128 kB Size: 300 MB > > how ever when vinum starts (vinum start) I get a warning about defective object > > Warning: defective objects > > V RAID State: down Plexes: 1 Size: 1200 MB > P RAID.p0 R5 State: init Subdisks: 5 Size: 1200 MB > S RAID.p0.s0 State: empty PO: 0 B Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s1 State: empty PO: 32 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s2 State: empty PO: 64 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s3 State: empty PO: 96 kB Size: 300 MB > S RAID.p0.s4 State: empty PO: 128 kB Size: 300 MB That looks the same as before. > and when I try to newfs the plex (newfs -v /dev/vinum/RAID (or rRAID) it comes > back with. This is a feature, not a bug. Your subdisks contain inconsistent data. To quote vinum(8): init [-S] size [-v] [-w] plex | subdisk vinum init initializes a subdisk by writing zeroes to it. You can initialize all subdisks in a plex by specifying the plex name. This is the only way to ensure consistent data in a plex. You must perform this initialization before using a RAID-5 plex. It is also recommended for other new plexes. vinum initializes all subdisks of a plex in parallel. Since this operation can take a long time, it is normally performed in the background. If you want to wait for completion of the command, use the -w (wait) option. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

You can find it in the packages/benchmark area of the CDROM. iozone is not really a storage device testing program. Use rawio (in the Ports Collection) for that: it bypasses the cache. Read carefully the warnings which tell you that you should not use the write tests on a file system which contains data you want to keep. > Kent, I tried that, only for me it worked doing "iozone 160".

It's nowhere near 33MB/second. 33 MB/s is the transfer rate from disk buffer to CPU. The transfer rate off the platter is slower, and your speeds there look pretty good. But remember that they're the ideal case. > I have a Maxtor 7000rpm with UDMA66 capabilities, although I'll have > to wait for -STABLE to support that, and a new motherboard as well. > I may recompile with the old flags just to see the difference. I'd be interested to see the difference, but I don't think it'll be very much. Try both with rawio, and look at the random access results, which are the only ones that count in practice.

A better solution would be to purchase THe OFfical FreeBSD 3.4(4 cd's) from http://www.cdrom.com http://www.freebsdmall.com It cost very little and worth the price for the CD instead of installing it via ftp on a 486. For a firewall soluton for your company try :- -The NetMax Firewall from (http://www.netmax.com) NetMAX FireWall's main features: All necessary software included and installed Complexities of Linux concealed Customizable default firewalls IP packet filtering Network address translation (NAT) Traffic Monitor Windows, Macintosh, and Unix clients supported Software only solution Looking forward to your feedback. danny (dannyh@idx.com.au) At 00:28 31/12/99 -0700, Gordon Govenlock wrote: >>>> I am a PC technician - however, that has unfortunately caused my computer to be running Win'98.

I am currently downloading the entire ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD directory. Is this a bad thing? I have no idea where to start... any suggestions?
