His name is Andrew Moore. Can someone tell me what his relationship is/was with the development of FreeBSD? I don't need a lot of details, or any personal information about him whatsoever, just need to know whether he is/was involved with the development of FreeBSD, and in what capacity. I was told he was involved, however, I don't see his name in the list of people who contributed to the product's development. Any information you can give me is greatly appreciated.

First things first. Please try to use correct grammar, capitalization, and punctuation. You may have noticed that other members of this list take a little effort to make their messages easily understandable. For every bit more difficult you make your message to read, it becomes less likely you will receive a response. Now on to the question. There is way more to this question than just the '.xinitrc' file. Most of the configuration that can be done to make your desktop look _COOL_ is done in your window manager's rc file. There may be several files that you need to edit in order to achieve a desired appearance on your desktop. For example, much of my old configuration was established in my '.fvwm2rc' file because I used to use fvwm2. Many people make their rc files available on their web pages. You might try searching for examples of desktops frmo your favorite window manager. Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...

I had this on a Siemens machine (Phoenix BIOS). When installing 2.2.5 in the "not dangerously dedicated mode (or how is it called)" the problem went away.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello. I've tried to download the installation files for floppies and I can't seem to get a straight-forward text on which files I need to download. Your layout text seems to insist that I get the CD. I don't think my CD-RW (Memorex CRW-1622) will work, anyway. Plus I don't wanna pay for the CD because I might not want to use it and that'd just be a waste of money. So far, I've gotten the idea that I should download the whole 'bin' directory so I did that. Is there a good text on the directory structure of the online disk (i'm downloading from ftp.cdrom.com). I would like to get X-Windows, but I don't even know where to start. I'm seeing about migrating from Windows NT, and I've never used any type of Unix before. Well, thank you for your time.

I configured my system to use the pnp0 psuedo-device, and upon bootup tried to set the IRQ and port for the modem (which shows up as CSN = 1 and LSN = 0). I enabled the modem (pnp 1 0 enable), and set it to get its configuration from the OS (pnp 1 0 os). Then when I try to use interactive user ppp, using "term", I get no response back from it, and I can't even kill the process. [Since this is an old EISA machine, do I have to set the resources used by the modem in the EISA config, even if the modem is a plug-n-play modem? ] Questions: 1. Am I missing something in setting up the modem? 2. Am I using the pnp stuff correctly? 3. How can I test that the modem is actually configured right? Here's the relevant info: (sio ports info, pnpinfo, dmesg, and how I configured the modem at kernel bootup using pnp). sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0: type 16550A sio1 not found at 0x2f8 When I type in "pnpinfo", I get: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Checking for Plug-n-Play devices...

I am able to create the floppy from the CD image and boot from it. I configured for my system, eliminating all the conflicts, and do a novice installation following the guidelines in 'The Complete FreeBSD'. When I remove the floppy to boot from the hard drive, it loads the kernel, probes for the devices and then issues these two lines: changing root device to wd1a panic: cannot mount root And then it reboots. My system is: SuperMicro P5MMS98 motherboard AMD K6 233 mhz cpu with 64 mb ram 2 ide drives each as single drive on separate controller Panasonic CD-ROM (SCSI) attached via NCR PCI SCSI board I have Windows 95 installed on the 1st drive (as per DOS restriction) and OS/2 installed on the second drive (shared with the FreeBSD installation). I am using System Commander to boot the system. I had expected some problems with System Commander from discussions in the manual as well as discussion on the newsgroups, but it correctly reports that it has detected the FreeBSD install after the system reboots and has added it to the selection menu. The 2nd drive geometry is: 8896/15/63/512 (physical) 522/255/63/512 (logical) and the layout (as reported from System Commander's information screen) is: 0/1/1 - 76/254/63 OS/2 primary partition (bootable) 77/0/1 - 215/254/63 FreeBSD 216/1/1 - 521/254/63 HPFS extended partition (OS/2 file space) I have gone through the installation procedure 3 times, but the result is the same, so it is something that is not a 'fluke'. Can you point me in a direction to try and diagnose the problem?

I am assuming that XFree86 is trying to set horizontal and > vertical rates beyond my monitor's specifications. Correct. Of course, it bases this assumption on what you told it. According to the information in the XF86Config file, you're running an Elsa Winner 1000PRO with S3 SDAC, and your monitor can handle up to 80 kHz horizontal frequency. Is this correct? Your monitor is saying "no". > 2. Is there anyway to specify the resolution in the XF86Config file? I > don't want any modes other than 1024 x 768 with 64K colors. Can you > please add that to my XF86Config if you can? That's a question of removal, not addition. You currently have: Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024" Change that to: Modes "1024x768" This will also solve your virtual screen problem. The server uses two parameters to determine the size of the screen: the Virtual keyword and the largest of the Modes (in this case, 1280x1024). That's why commenting out the Virtual keywords didn't work. Unfortunately, there's a very good chance that this won't work for you, because your configuration file doens't describe your monitor correctly. You *must* find out the horizontal frequency range of your monitor. If you can find the vertical frequency range as well, that would be good, but in practice it's not nearly as important. And do your really have an Elsa Winner 1000? It looks as if you are in the USA, and I didn't know that Elsa sold their boards there. I'd suggest that you re-run xf86config and specify the correct information, as well as the screen resolutions you want, and it should work fine.

I get the same Exec Format error:wrong architechure when I run the Linux port of netscape. I loaded the lkm by running bin/linux and got the same error. I downloaded the linux_lib files from ftp.freebsd.org and pkg_delete'd linux_lib then make and make reinstall with the downloaded files. Same error as above. Changed back to the original kernel, set linux="YES" and rebooted. Same error when trying to run Netscape 4.04. Am I missing some details on how to use the emulator (I'm just typing in the linux binary name (ie netscape &)? Is there something else needed or is this netscape package just not compatable with this release of the emulator? I notice a /dev/lkm file but when I MAKEDEV lkm or MAKEDEV.local lkm, I get an error indicating neither file recognizes device lkm. Is the following correct? (crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 32, 0 Jun 17 1997 /dev/lkm) Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've been doing it for almost a year, starting with when i used my 28.8k connection. Since I started this on a 486/33 8MB system, i decreased the Squid cache sizes to 2MB in RAM and 10MB on HD, and decreased the number of folders and subfolders it used to sort its cache (this 486 had 300MB of slow, old, IDE hard drive). Just run Squid on the FreeBSD machine and tell the others that you want to use it for the WWW, gopher, and FTP proxy. This only works from within your web browser. If you want full internet connectivity from the other machines, use natd. --Ludwig Pummer ludwigp@bigfoot.com ICQ UIN: 692441 http://chipweb.home.ml.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Mar 29 20:42:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA02489 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 20:42:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from iconmail.bellatlantic.net (iconmail.bellatlantic.net [199.173.162.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA02341 for ; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 20:42:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from thenet1@bellatlantic.net) From: thenet1@bellatlantic.net Received: from advancec (client-119-13.bellatlantic.net [151.198.119.13]) by iconmail.bellatlantic.net (IConNet Sendmail) with SMTP id XAA19642; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:03:11 -0500 (EST) Date: Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:03:11 -0500 (EST) Subject: A Cutting Edge Advertising Break Through For You And Your Clients!

I installed Debian 1.3.1 (mu choice of Linux dists when I'm not allowed to use FreeBSD) on a system at work recently and noticed that the default lpt0 configuration was polled. Previous installs with much older kernels had given interrupt driven lpt?s. Just makes me wonder whether the incidence of funny parallel port IRQ handling (port assignments with lpt? in DOS land have always been odd) is on the increase, possibly in conjunction with a move to PnP IRQ assignment by motherboard manufacturers (I've heard rumblings about this with serial ports). -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

Welcome to dialup connections :) This is serial connections for you. WIthout more details it's impossible to tell whether the remote or local side are dropping packets, or (more likely) line noise is causing a retransmit in the modem. Considering the packet is eventually getting through, the modem is probably recovering from a dropped packet or interrupted line. 30s delays sounds like call waiting.

Odd that sio1 would be conflicting with the video; it's usually COM4. Could be a bug in the video's BIOS too. > Is there a way to correct this without disabling > features? Am I correct in assuming that this is an irq conflict? It's an improper configuration. Your modem probably isn't being PnP config'd either, if it requires it.

Okay, then, is there anything underneath /usr/X11R6? If not, you may have to install XFree manually, which isn't hard if you already have the distribution archives.

This isn't possible, I don't think. In order to use MD5 everything has to be in MD5 format, but the old passwords are in DES. The replacement libcrypt replaces the MD5 crypt() routine with the DES one. You can't decrypt DES very easily, so I think you're stuck with DES unless you can hack the des libs and I'm not sure that's easily done. You'd have to take a look at them.

In fact, FreeBSD has had polled lpt drivers for a long time. When I first moved to FreeBSD (from BSD/OS, about 3 years ago), I found that I had to run my printer in polled mode, though it worked fine in interrupt mode (the only possibility) under BSD/OS. I haven't got rid of the impression that this was a kludge rather than a hardware problem, but it's been a long while since I've seen a necessity for it.

Live with it; they're harmless. FreeBSD doesn't expect the drives to go out to lunch. The IDE controller doesn't signal the host when they're spinning up, assuming a Windoze universe where the system will just block waiting for the disks to come ready. > Another question, How do i properly clear the logs, i read somewhere > that just deleteing them wont do it and can be BAD.. You have to recreate the file then HUP syslogd. Let your machines run over Friday night and the logs will be turned automatically by the cron task that runs /etc/weekly, or on newer systems, newsyslog will roll the logs for you.

It should work; Linux and FreeBSD use the same X server, XFree86. I don't know about the noise, it may be a resource conflict or chip misdetection.

Probably not /dev; tar won't backup device special files. Easily fixed however.

Actually, I wiped out my 2.2.5 slices and clean-installed 2.2.6 from CD. The CD install went fine except for configuring X. I couldn't do it via XF86Setup. I even disabled moused and tried it, but no luck. No real problem there, I could do it once I rebooted the system. When I did reboot, and restored my 2.2.5 files, I got a strange error trying to start user ppp from the start_if.tun0 file. It complained about not being able to find libdes. True enough, I did not install the DES package as I'm quite happy with MD5. I thought that ppp should start up no matter what encryption style I was using. After all, it had worked fine under 2.2.5. So, I started up /stand/sysinstall and added DES, and sure enough, ppp ran fine. Then I ran XF86Setup (after a fresh kernel recompile), and to my delight, it recognized my "wheel" IntelliMouse. I loved the new config options. That went smoothly. Then I started X. The new Xwrapper threw me off some, but I figured that out. What was really strange was xterm. Everytime I started up an xterm -ls, it never erased its entry from utmp. I tried recompiling X and using different WM, but no luck. These are the only odd things I've noticed in 2.2.6, so kudos to the Team. By the way, I love the improved Linux support.

You need to make sure the space you are allocating to FreeBSD is completely unallocated, not part of any other partition. Use `fips' to split space out of an existing partition if you need to.

The new GENERIC is supplied as kernel.GENERIC though.

I have :) You mount UNIX disks the same way you mount DOS disks except you don't specify a type. For instance, I have a new disk on sd0 that I just formatted, so to mount it I run: mount /dev/sd0s1a /mnt And the disk shows up on /mnt. If you want them to show up automatically, add entries for the disks to /etc/fstab. See http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskformat/ for details.

I would suggest running a serial console to another computer or dumb terminal via null modem cable and see if you can crash the system. Any panic output will appear there (when the panic happens it goes to the console which you can't see because you're in X). I would also check top or systat -pigs and make sure no process is going bananas.

I am using System Commander to boot the system. I had > expected some problems with System Commander from discussions in the > > Jay Moseley Given that you are running two OSes on the second drive (wd1) I doubt that your freebsd kernel will be found on the slice 'wd1a'. The kernel will be more likely found on 'wd1s2a' or something similar. Read "The Complete FreeBSD" for the skinny on disc naming conventions. I cant remember the exact syntax (I would have to reboot to remember :)) for telling the boot strap (correct jargon??) how to find the kernel. When your system is starting it is apparent that System Commander finds the boot strap fine or you would not even get the errors that you have received. So next time you boot, when you see the prompt 'boot:' it will say someting like 'kernel (wd,1,a)'. Type in the real slice that your kernel is found on. For example: boot: (wd,1,s1a) Please keep in mind that I do not remember the precise syntax. Syntax is left as an exercise for the reader :). I just hope this gets you going in the correct direction and helps you get into your system for the first time. Good luck. With these vague instructions, you will need it.

Information concerning installing FreeBSD (including non-CDROM installation) is included at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html This includes from-floppy installation, which I do not recommend if you have other options. One of the (potentially) easiest methods is to use a network connection to the Internet, either Ethernet or modem and ppp/slip. I have done both and found them quite painless (although the modem method can be time-consuming, but not much more so than downloading the floppies in the first place).

The soundcard needs the new sound driver with 2.2.6, and no implementation of USB exists for UNIX yet. Overall, should be okay. If you can get the boot floppy's main menu you are probably home free.

I've seen these before, usually from proxy servers or firewalls as it loops around inside a device (probably a router belonging to home.net). I usually consider this an error; you should probably bother their network ops about it just to check.

Also, If any problems do arise, what can I do to make the >scanner functional with FreeBSD? The only caveats I know of off the top of my head concerning scanners are these: 1. FreeBSD does not have support for particular scanners by default. SANE does support scanners and works with FreeBSD. http://www.mostang.com/sane/ 2. Many scanners are somewhat poor SCSI devices and tend to do things which negatively affect system performance. I'm not entirely sure what the right names for these things are; I think the problem is that when the scanner is handling requests, it holds onto the bus and doesn't let other devices (like hard drives) make requests or respond. Some scanners can be set to other modes, but I don't know about the ScanMakers. In addition, some scanners misreport their SCSI IDs, and so they may require minor kernel modifications for correct detection. -- bryan k ogawa http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Mar 29 23:53:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA12357 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:53:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA12350 for ; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:53:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id XAA23831; Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:52:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Sun, 29 Mar 1998 23:52:31 -0800 (PST) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: Mark Castillo cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: upgrading 2.2.5-R to 2.2-Stable In-Reply-To: <008f23348051938UPIMSSMTPUSR03@email.msn.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 24 Mar 1998, Mark Castillo wrote: > I am planning on upgrading my 2.2.5-R system to 2.2-Stable via cvsup and > make world.

Odd. You can set the settings by building a new kernel and specifying the settings of the devices you want and removing the rest, but dset should work.

Try adding a `Reply-To:' header line that points to the address you want the mail to go to. See my header; I write from dwhite@gdi but mail goes to dwhite@resnet. This is done with a change to ~/.pinerc, I think the keyword is `customized-headers'.

RELENG_2_2's sio.c branched at rev 1.147 and 16650 activity is logged at rev 1.130, so it should be in there. If not it should be an easy port.

Yes, I know that FreeBSD uses direct access mode with SCSI disks, but, anyway, is it possible to use so-called "normal geometry" (Mbytes/64/32) with SLHAs instead of default for SLHA (magic_number/63/255) ?

I have a couple of questions about Cyclades Cyclom-Y multiports. I'm currently using 2.2.6-STABLE. 1. How stable the driver (cy.c) is and what version of the card is known as more stable with it ? a) ISA (Ye) b) PCI (YeP) 2. Now I have SM8 serial module for my card. Will it give me some performance benefits (or, worse, some problems) if I'll ``undef PollMode'' in cy.c ? 3. Is the driver known to well work with 16Y's and 32Y's ? And if YES, does it require some tuning for 16Y's and 32Y's? 4. Why PollMode is required for Cyclom-16Y's and does it required for 32Y's? * PollMode: required for Cyclom-16Y's; costs 10-20% relative efficiency on * Cyclom-8Y's (more with a low RxFifoThreshold).

It's the aic driver if you haven't already found out. Perhaps this should go into the release notes or something. I think there may also be 1510 or 1515 cards which also use the same chip and therefore probably the same driver. Tim.

There is a BSD command 'pmake' which has been introduced as a variant (but which does not replace the original 'make'). This variant is supposed to support advanced features that 'make' does not support in it's spec. For example the ability to utilise the C format '+=' to enable the concatenation to a defined variable, also the ability to include other files. However it is not compatible to the original 'make' nor does it support SCCS. I believe that what FreeBSD calls make is either 'pmake' or a modified version of it. It concerns me as an applications developer that something as important as 'make' is effectively non-conformant with the major systems like 'AIX', 'Solaris', 'HPUX' etc which use the non-variant 'make' Malcolm G.

My experience tells otherwise; the Solaris make on our 2.6 box in CS doesn't like my makefiles, and we always have this problem of having to convert makefiles over to bmake format every time we add programs to the contributed source.

Is there already an on-board serial port on sio0? You might want to move your modem to sio1 in that case. _Something_ is being detected at the irq/port you have assigned to the modem, but it might not be what you think. On my creaky old 486, even with port serial ports disabled in the BIOS setup, my PnP modem had to be on sio2 before it would work.

I have a small problem, which I want you to help me resolve using sendmail features/RULESETs. Here is it: There is a mailing list , which is protected to accept only those mails, which have its sender subscribed to the list. This is generally right, but makes me some inconvenience... I have subscribed a local alias (oracle-l@ucb.crimea.ua) to that list, which then delivers mail to a number of my users. But when users try to send out mail to the list, the only way to do this (in the time of writing) is to use sendmail's ``-f'' option to specify the name of ``from'' person to be Oracle-L@ucb.crimea.ua. Is there a way to make sendmail rewrite sender's name to oracle-l when the users send mail to oracle-l@dbinfo.com. I have tried to modify RULESET_1 to do this, but macro $u isn't yet defined while parsing RULESET_1. Any ideas?

To do this we have installed a second ethernet card (fxp1) with an internal IP address. There is also a second dns server on the internal network which handles internal dns queries. When email clients connect to the POP server via the router the address is translated and all works well, but when connecting via fxp1 (with appropriate IP addresses etc. configured on the client machine) the connection seems to take a huge amount of time, before eventually making a connection. Once connected, normal transactions occur as expected. Similarly, telnetting to the external network address works almost instantaneously, but telnetting to the internal address incurs the same sort of delays. This doesn't seem to be dns related since the same delays occur whether using FQDNs or IP addresses. The machine is running 2.2.2-R with 2 intel etherexpress cards. any thoughts? cheers, Carey Nairn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 30 06:47:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA12595 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 06:47:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from kaschynna.com (kaschynna.com [206.63.164.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA12590 for ; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 06:47:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from flerll@kaschynna.com) Received: from localhost (flerll@localhost) by kaschynna.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id EAA05416; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 04:22:01 -0800 (PST) Date: Mon, 30 Mar 1998 04:22:01 -0800 (PST) From: Jerry Blancher To: Nicholas Lysaght cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, mail.ami.com.au@hub.freebsd.org Subject: Re: BSD AND ZIP DRIVE In-Reply-To: <351F63C9.552C@ami.com.au> 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 _______________________________________________________________________ Kaschynna Communications mailto:flerll@kaschynna.com Internet Presence Provider mailto:flerll@drachenforge.com Coeur d'Alene, Idaho 208.765.9312 208.769.7337 Interactive MU* Hosting http://kaschynna.com/mudhost/ Drachen Forge MUD-telnet drachenforge.com 8000-http://drachenforge.com/ On Mon, 30 Mar 1998, Nicholas Lysaght wrote: > Hi There > > I have an Iomega ZIP-100 drive, which I would like to run under FreeBSD. > From the docs I'v read, it looks a hard slog. > > But a friend who runs Red Hat Linux mailed me to look for an > "automounter deamon". > > Is there such a thing with FreeBSD > > Thanks > > NICK > I have been running my 1gig Jaz drive on my Freebsd version 2.2.5 with little problems. The kernel had no problems detecting the SCSI card. The problems that I found is when the drive goes into sleep mode, and the kernel tries to detect it while it's in sleep mode, it will not detect the drive correctly. I suppose that you can change the SCSI wait in the kernel to wait longer for the jaz to come up to full running operation, but I found that 2.2.5 takes forever to come up as it is, do I choose not to do that. I got jazcontrol for FreeBSD to bring up the jaz drive before I'd do a reboot and it would detect it fine. But that is only required if you have the jaz drive auto-matically mounted on start-up. Otherwise, you can just use jazcontrol to bring up the jaz drive before you manually mount it. The latter is what I used for the most time till recently when my HD was givin me problems and so I took some load off it by running some of my aplications off the jaz drive, in which I had to make the jaz mount automatically at startup. (Side note: access time to the Jaz drive is ALOT better then it is to my 4gig Quantum Bigfoot[cheap, stock installed piece of Crud]). If you need the Jazcontrol file, let me know and I'll send you a copy as I have read reciently that it's not easy to find anymore.

I have the freebsd installation cd (1 out of the 4cd set). I want to install freebsd 2.2.5 native on my laptop. The win95 machine has the cdrom drive. I have a parallel<>parallel port cable linking the two machines. The host machine with the cdrom in it is called i-zone. All m$oft compatible protocols are enabled with this identity on the host machine (that is tcp/ip, which I think is required for the laptop to see the cdrom drive through nfs) ipx/spx (without which direct cable connection doesn't work) and netbeui (links with ipx/spx). The laptop thinks it is called i-zonelap. When the laptop was running win95, it called the cdrom D. i-zone calls the cdrom F. I then start direct cable connection listening on the parallel interface. I have set this up so that no passwords are required. Booting boot.flp all goes smoothly until I configure the media to install from. I set netconfig on the laptop so that the machine name is i-zonelap, with no other parameters. It warns me that I will not be able to see anything outside my local network. I select nfs as the installation media. It then asks me the name of the machine and the directory to install from. I say i-zone:/d It then says it cannot find i-zone:/d (or i-zone: or anything else) What am I doing wrong here, and what (if any) is the workaround?

You're not the only one with this problem. After 6 months of battling this problem off and on, here's what I have found as your only solution. I have to assume you are trying to dedicate the whole drive to FBSD like I was. It has something to do with the BIOS (and/drive ?). The only way to get your "beast" to boot up naturally, is to install a DOS partition on your drive. Do this so when you get into the FBSD fdisk editor, you can record the geometry reported. This is the geometry to use for your disk. While in the fdisk partion editor, zap that DOS partion outta there, and say you want the whole disk used for FBSD, remaining cooperative with other OS's. If you choose to dedicate the whole drive to FBSD w/o being cooperative, you will get the "Read error" message again. If you don't have a DOS disk, try this for the geometry: Mbtyes/64/32. ie. 1010/64/32 for a 1.1 GB disk; even though the FAQ recommended that I use 128/63/255. fdisk didn't like this! It was recommending that I use 128/255/63, and I'd still get "Read error". Ugh. I say it is a BIOS/HD problem because given the EXACT same machine, controller, RAM etc, if I install a 1GB SCSI HD I get the "Read error". If I put a 2GB SCSI HD in, I can dedicate the whole drive to FBSD and get this -- IT WORKS! Go figure.

Odd. The command tells the console driver to reset the resolution to 80x25, hopefully that will clear the scrambled condition. Apparently it doesn't work in your case, so you are probably out of luck. You may want to run X via xdm so that you log directly into X vice logging into the console and using startx. Simply add `xdm' to /etc/rc.local to activate, and move your .xinitrc to .xsession.

You shouldn't need to do this. Your netmask specifies that the broadcast address for your router's link should be 158.97.1.0.

Sure -- use the boot floppy/fixit floppy or boot floppy/liveFS CROM combo to get you a shell, mount up your FSs, and rebuild.

Destroy the old partition or use `fdisk /mbr' in DOS to delete the boot manager and simply use the active partition status flag to set the partition you want to use.

This does not belong on hackers. Anything that is in the manual does not belong on hackers. Anyhow, see manpage on ftpd in regards to chroot support. There are a couple of ways of doing it. I do it via a login class. You probably want to re-build ftpd with internal ls support to facilate chroot operation.

I wrote down some of the info: fatal trap 12, page fault while in kernel mode fault address: 0x10 fault cause: supervisor read, page not present current process: idle interrupt mask: net tty bro panic: page fault What does it mean, Stimpy? --------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel R.

Also 'restore' keeps having to try to re-sync the backup tape as well, claiming it's out of sync, skippin 'x' blocks etc. The system does everything else fine, it builds worlds in a shade under an hour - it does dumps, it will quite happily fsck all the drives at the same time as the system comes up - it just won't do restores... :-( Has anyone else noticed anything similar? System is running 2.2.6 with 160Mb of RAM, 6 SCSI drives (running off an AHA2940UW), and 1 HP C1533A running off an AHA1542CF...

Install and setup samba from the ports tree. Samba provides Windows Networking-style server access to the FreeBSD box. You'll have to set up the FreeBSD box to print first, but that isn't too difficult with the Handbook on your side.

We had this discussion a while back and decided that having a gigantic 650MB image wasn't going to be very useful due to reliability problems downloading such a large image, plus the diskspace lost to a single static file.

The system may be holding on to it and will commit out when it needs the swap. Check 'top' and see who's hogging all the memory.

Just curious if any programs have hard coded paths in them; deamons usually have, but that's beyond the scope... I guess I'll try and see... :) Anybody know if I can create a PATH that chooses certain (local) directories before other (nfs-mounted), e.g. by choosing a certain order?

It can be done, but it requires some surgical work behind the installer to make enough room for stuff to come in. I just did this a few weeks ago :) Basically, blow away /usr/include and /usr/share as fast as they fill in. Kill selected stuff out of /usr/libexec, and be really careful around /lib and /usr/lib (it helps to have a machine you can NFS from to steal libs back from). I didn't bother with swap.

There's no mention in the index, and I can't find it by looking through the "Popular Extensions" chapter. If you *do* want some kind of treatment of BSD make, look at "Porting UNIX Software" (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/port/noframes.html).

Thanks If you get the message: panic: Cannot mount root At the end of the probe sequence you should either: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other parameters unchanged).

To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: fbibsd@yahoo.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi -- I'm trying to set up an embedded FreeBSD system which will boot from a Flash memory solid state disc, and run a customized system with various application and server processes in RAM. The system is expected to run for indefinitely long periods of time (e.g. many months) without reboot / restart. I plan to utilise 2.2-stable for the O/S. What mechanisms are available to make it so that the system doesn't swap (via strict prohibition, or 'in practice')? Are there significant limitations within the memory management / process management systems which I should be aware of in order to prevent resource loss, inefficiency, unreliability for very long uptimes? If I must have a swap device, then is it possible to use something like a MFS to reserve a memory area as the only 'swap device', with no disc backing store for it at all? Swapping to Flash memory would be very bad because (a) it is slow, and (b) it has a limited rewrite lifetime. I've seen on the hackers list various people talking of using FreeBSD for embedded 'diskless' (Flash / ROM only) applications, though I've never seen the issues of swaping and resource recycling addressed.

It depends on how the remote site is generated. FreeBSD's own web page source is in a CVS tree which we can grab & regenerate via cvsup. This is how www7.freebsd.org stays current.

Make sure that drive E doesn't actually exist -- it must be completely clean space, not part of any other partition. At that point hit 'C' in the fdisk editor and accept the default size -- it'll take up the remaining space.

Easy to use, and a good handbook entry on its use. The problem I'm having is trying to figure out what ports nfs will use... I've been using udp, v2, and it seems to grab ports in the 1010-1030 range. If I use the "nfs priv-port" sysctl, it strays around in the 980 range with the port incrementing with each access. Is there an absolute range that it will stay in in either mode? If I use tcp will it stick to one port on each side?

I also see disk > errors every few days. Hmmm...wonder if it's related??? Related to the disk errors, or to other panics? It could be related to the disk errors, but there's no reason to believe that any of these panics are related. This is one FreeBSD equivalent of the dreaded "General Protection Error" you see so often with Microsoft. It means that something has gone wrong with the kernel's addressing, and that no specific routines exist to handle it. The only reliable way to find out what is going on here is a dump. The only useful way to analyse a dump is to build a debug kernel and use that kernel for the analysis. These are the steps (page 290 of "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition): To prepare yourself for possible problems, you should build kernels which include debug symbols. The resultant kernel is about 10 MB in size, but it will make debugging with ddb (the kernel debugger) or gdb much easier. Even if you don't intend to do this yourself, the information will be of great use to anybody you may call in to help. Building a debug kernel is pretty much the same process as building a normal kernel. Here are the differences: o Run config with the -g option: # config -g FREEBIE o After building the kernel, rename it to kernel.gdb: # mv kernel kernel.gdb o Make a copy of kernel.gdb called kernel, and strip debug symbols: # cp kernel.gdb kernel # strip -d kernel o Install the kernel. You should also enable dumping in /etc/rc.conf.

() This looks pretty much like gibberish--see the online handbook for more details. In particular, though, the last part is what we need: where did this happen? The command (kgdb) bt tells gdb to give you a backtrace of the function calls. The #1, #2 and so on are the frame numbers. In this particular dump, frames #13 and #23 are trap frames. As the name in frames #12 and #22 show, in each case it was a page fault. Nobody's asking you to solve this dump, of course (I wish I could), but the information will usually give an accurate idea of what caused it.

It would be interesting to know what hardware you have installed.

An SB16 is quite enough - it doesn't matter if support is compiled in or not since the conflict is at the hardware level. I recall that SB16's like to use irq 5 - which IRQ do you have your 3c509 set to? -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 30 19:14:55 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA00830 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 19:14:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA00802 for ; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 19:14:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id MAA01177; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 12:44:26 +0930 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id MAA02920; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 12:44:26 +0930 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Message-ID: <19980331124426.10262@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Tue, 31 Mar 1998 12:44:26 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: "Daniel Lee [EDP]" , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: q....

Currently all are good, But *BSD's are based after 4.4BSD UNIX well Linux is classified as POSIX OS. I used Red Hat Linux myself for some time, until a associate got me hooked on FreeBSD. Linux personally was designed for challenge hearted, kernals updates are released more, but drivers are not.. well *BSD's OS core of developers are spending more time on making it easy installation and releasing current drivers for hardware. Here are a couple of sites you can check.. http://www.freebsd.org <------ easy installation, for a new user to Unix. http://www.netbsd.org <------ installation challenge, once installed and reboot, your brought into single user mode, and have to change rc.conf using vi.

Hm. You might check the netstat -i output and look for excessive collisions (more than 10% of the output packets). If this is true then your network cable is getting too much interference.

Well, what went wrong? My guess is that you either: 1. Downloaded the boot floppy image using Netscape or in ASCII mode. Use ftp in binary mode. 2. Trying to copy the image to the floppy instead of RAWRITEing or FDIMAGEing the image. These programs are available in the tools/ directory; use them to write the image to the disk.

In my Freebsd box I usually mount -t ext2fs, so I can snag files from my linux partitions if I need to.. Right now i'm having to mount -t msdos win95slice(in freebsd). mounting win95 as a msdos parttion sucks.. for example, from linux I have vfat kernel support.. Its a win95 fs.. I can use this to mount -t vfat under linux, and handle win95's dam fs.. I'm intrested if freebsd has support for win95's fs.. Not msdos really..

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 Greetings. First off, I know that cgis are not the topic of freebsd list usually. I have however had really good luck from many folks on this list, and I am really in a bit of a jam, and any help I can get would be greatly appreciated. Over the last several days, I have been given the task of creating a huge website by next week, and it requires a lot of learning things on the fly. Anyway, I have been teaching myself cgi writing, in perl. I am including the text of the cgi script in the body of the message, along with the html form I have created. It is inportant to note that the form seems to work correctly, after I pointed the action attribute to the test cgis on ncsa's webserver. However, my cgi seems to return every value except the last one! That is where the problem is, and I am hoping someone can assist me.

There's certainly no such option in the configuration program. As for a bad cable segment, is there something unique to FreeBSD that would cause such a problem to be show up, considering that I have no problems getting speeds of 200K/s under Win95/NT. sean To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 30 22:34:10 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA29800 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 22:34:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-31.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id WAA29724 for ; Mon, 30 Mar 1998 22:33:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bobh@n-cantrell.demon.co.uk) Received: from (n-cantrell.demon.co.uk) [193.237.193.139] by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0yJucM-0006CJ-00; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 07:33:54 +0100 Message-ID: Date: Tue, 31 Mar 1998 07:32:13 +0100 To: Doug White Cc: FreeBSD Questions From: robert w hall Subject: Re: freebsd 2.2.5 kernel on cyrix 686 M2-MMX cpu In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Turnpike Trial Version 3.04 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Doug Thanks - if you need repeat info though, please note I'm awae in bonnie scotland for a week after tomorrow morning Regards Bob Hall In message , Doug White writes >On Mon, 30 Mar 1998, robert w hall wrote: > >> Doug >> As you'll find a few days down your pile, I've now tried it on a boot >> floppy and get the same crash diagnostic (same address too I think) > >Okay, I'm going to throw this up to -hackers for analysis.

Note that this is the fixed ip address given to me by my isp. This is a dialup account. now comes the hard part. The next screen is netconfig. What do I need to put in host - domain - gateway - dns - ip address for lp0 interface and subnet mask? does the interface refer to the laptop or the desktop? I take it that I have to assign some arbritrary ip address like 192.0.0.1 to the laptop once I've convinced it that it is i-zonelaptop If they are all left blank, plip attempts to run after I have chosen the distributions but of course it cannot resolve the ip adress. If values are entered, it just aborts ("you cannot use this method of installation" or similar). I am entering the wrong values somewhere, I'm sure. Isn't one of the addresses meant to be 'special' in this case (ie loopback address or similar) I suppose the other way is copying bin onto floppy then completing the rest of the installation from there but AUAIK this is what is known technically as "the hard way" thanks John - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 31 01:24:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA18753 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 01:24:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ers.online.sh.cn ([202.96.211.193]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA18524 for ; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 01:22:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from paulk@ether.online.sh.cn) Received: from jinbo.ether.online.sh.cn (202.96.201.168) by ers.online.sh.cn (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.81) with SMTP id ; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 17:20:00 +0800 Message-ID: From: "Paul King" To: "Sean Lyndersay" , Cc: Subject: Re: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 Date: Tue, 31 Mar 1998 17:17:20 +0800 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet Mail 4.70.1155 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Try use the configuration of 3C509 as Win95/NT. ---------- > From: Sean Lyndersay > To: dg@root.com > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: RE: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 > Date: Tuesday, March 31, 1998 2:01 PM > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: root@implode.root.com [mailto:root@implode.root.com]On Behalf Of > > David Greenman > > Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 1998 12:54 AM > > To: Sean Lyndersay > > Subject: Re: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 > > > > > > >Okay, I've removed the SB16 completely, and rebuilt the kernel > > with no sound > > >support.

I deduce from the mail(1) manpage that the crt variable is used to encourage mail(1) to use the pager specified with the PAGER variable. This is a good thing. However, I can't see why the arbitrary value of 24 was selected. From what I understand of the manpage, if the crt variable is empty (rather than unset) mail(1) will determine the number of rows to page using terminal settings. I've set crt='' in my dot.profile and mail(1) uses $PAGER (less in my case) to page correctly for vt100, cons25 and xterm termcaps, regardless of the number of rows. What is the benefit of specifying a value of 24 instead of letting mail(1) work this value out for itself? Doesn't this smack of setting TERM=vt100 (or cons25 or whatever)? Comments of a sensible nature appreciated. Sheldon.

The object of the game now is to complete the installation via ftp. Someone here kindly suggested that I grab some ftpd software off tucows, so I installed it and symlinked the cd off 'users'(the ftpd software is called 'vermillion' FWIW). I can ftp from the win95 box to 127.0.0.1 and I can see the cd, via anonymous ftp (now via stand/sysinstall on laptop) The laptop is hooked into the win95 box via parallel<>parallel port. I am attempting to use plip. I select the installation media as ftp, the stuff I want to install etc. It then asks me what site I want to download from. I enter the URL selection. I type ftp://158.152.227.78/ (this is my ip address. I am not permanently connected to the internet). It then asks me if I want to review my network settings, I say yes, and get to the network settings panel. And here I am stuck. No matter what I enter here, I get either 'no route to host' or 'couldn't connect to 158.152.227.78 errcode=65' . If I type in i-zone.demon.co.uk as the url, of course I get host not found. Am I trying to subnet here, if so should I do anything with the subnet mask, and is the naming convention arbritrary? Is there a faq on this? Thanks John - Woo-hoo?!

I've been trying to find an answer to this question, as well. I've found a struct (nfs_args, described in /usr/include/sys/mount.h) which has a field (flags), one of the possible values of which is NFSMNT_NFSV3 (0x00000200). However, I've not been able to find a pointer to a struct nfs_args. Since I had been having some problems with loop-back NFS V3 mounts (amd would seem to forget that the FS was mounted, which caused a wait during disk I/O). Since changing the specification to amd (via the "nfsv2" option in the amd map about 5 days ago), I've only had a single recurrence of a similar symptom-set (vs. being able to crash & burn at will, previously). I would welcome further clues (to be able to display/print exactly what NFS options are in effect for a given mount).

I would like to have an on-demand PPP-link beetween two IP subnets A and B (via modem). The FreeBSD machine sits on the B network. |A network|--|modem|<---POTS--->|modem|--|FreeBSD / B Network| I have configured the ppp-daemon in "-auto" mode to enable on-demand connection from B to A : it works. I have configured mgetty and PPP to enable incomming PPP connections from A to B : it works. When I try to authorize both incoming and outgoing connections through the same modem, it stops working : on-demand outgoing PPP -auto takes hold of the line and mgetty is kept out of the picture (and can't answer the line). 1st question : is there a configuration of mgetty and "ppp -auto" so that they share a single modem ? 2nd question : (if two modems are needed) doesn't the TCP-IP stack get confused with having two interfaces for the connection beetween two networks ? (each with unidirectionnal routes when the line is down) Thanks in advance for your help TfH thierry.herbelot@telspace.alcatel.fr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 31 08:34:18 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA15611 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 08:34:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from konig.elte.hu (konig.elte.hu [157.181.6.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA15536 for ; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 08:34:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from szoli@cs.elte.hu) Received: from neumann.cs.elte.hu (neumann [157.181.6.200]) by konig.elte.hu (8.8.8/8.8.8/3s) with ESMTP id SAA16934 for ; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 18:35:10 +0200 Received: from localhost (szoli@localhost) by neumann.cs.elte.hu (8.8.8/8.8.8/1c) with SMTP id SAA13704 for ; Tue, 31 Mar 1998 18:33:32 +0200 X-Authentication-Warning: neumann.cs.elte.hu: szoli owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 31 Mar 1998 18:33:32 +0200 (MET DST) From: Zoltan Sebestyen To: FreeBSD questions mailinglist Subject: Enabling network terminals Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I know it's a dumb question, but how can I enable network terminals do that I can log in to FreeBSD from (local) network.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Pleeeeease Help! I have a problem when trying to UPload files to ny FreeBSD 2.2.5 box using zmodem (lrz). One of the main reasons I run a 'BSD box is that I can dial in from work and upload program files. I can dial in OK, log in and use the vt220 terminal emulation to do practically anything. I usually connect at 28800 every time. No problem. If I then try to send files up the 'BSD box, I get lots of Zmodem errors, and the file transfer fails. If I send a file FROM the 'BSD box to my local machine, there is no problem. Now the odd thing is that I can download huge files off the Internet without trouble (admittedly not using Zmodem), and I can even boot the PC into DOS and use a comms program to download huge files. I can even get very high CPS if I use Minicom to receive files. Now now I'm starting to suspect my diallin setup. What do I need to set up in the way of parameters, and in particular, where do I put the modem init string? FWIW I'm using the standard getty.. I'd be *very* grateful for any info on this! TIA ..

I noticed the problem when I used lrz/lsz. I think they are not as reliable as rz/sz. Get the rz/sz from ports collection instead.

My topic is to do a comparative study of the boot process of FreeBSD and Linux. I need to find out how processes are started and what are started at boot time. >From what I understand, Linux uses System V Init as its standard and the the "init" program is the one that start up processes at boot time and respawn processes when they die. The behaviour of "init" is based on /etc/inittab. Also, Linux uses the runlevels (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,s) to implement different modes and states (eg. single user, multiuser mode without NFS, full multiuser mode, etc). However, I have not been successful in find the FreeBSD counterparts of: - System V Init - /etc/inittab (control file for "init") - runlevel mechanism It has been quite difficult to hunt down information on the Internet on my topic. Perhaps I was not looking at the right place... Please help me out. I really appreciate any assistance you may provide. Thanks in advance.

The first HD has Win95 (hda1). The second HD (hdb) has SlackwareLinux + OpenLinux + RedHat Linux in three partitions. I always booted those linuxes from a floppy diskette, that was perfect every time. So I decided to install FreeBSD in the first HD (hda2) and it functioned well booting with Win95. AFTER I have instaled FreeBSD, NONE of my three types of Linux appeared to boot right. Every time I had tried to Boot Linux from Floppy (like I always did before) there was a VFS Panic (or Kernel Panic). Do anyone had a problem like that ? How can I co-exist with all those OS win95 + FreeBSD + SlackWareLinux + RedHatLinux + CalderaOpenLinux) in my 2 HDs ? Thanks a lot.

They aren't sent to any particular port since they aren't destined for an application. If you want to check the existence of a service, use telnet with the optional port argument, ie `telnet machine 80'. If it comes back "Connection Refused" the service is not running.

There are a couple of ways to do this. 1. Grab the 2.2.6 boot floppy, boot it, and select the Upgrade option. 2. Grab the sources for 2.2.6 and build it. This particular procedure is described at http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials. I personally like #1.

I connect to Internet through ppp service provided by my school(UMD). I have a few questions. (1) I don't seem to be able to have access to FreeBSD home page, in fact, almost all www servers running on top of FreeBSD. It seems to me related to the reverse DNS checking. I have no problem on Win95. Is proxy server a must in this case, or is there any workaounds? (2) Ever since UMD upgraded their dial-up modems to 56.5K(probably X2), I almost always get a message from pppd, "Lost Compression". What does this mean? Is it a problem with the modem, pppd, or noisy phone line? (3) I purchased a notebook recently. I know there is PAO package, but would like to know which of FreeBSD or Linux is easy to install on a notebook(Toshiba 730XCDT)?

The new (I suppose) boot.flp for diskette installation is 1474560 in size evidantly bigger than regular 1.44 diskette. Since it couldn't fit on one diskette, I used the prvious boot.flp and installed from the ftp site. But after the installation, I found it installed the same version "2.2.5 version I had instead of 2.2.6 - something I was afraid smart FreeBSD will do.

I got one 2.0GB DDS 4mm tape and I got there data that I want to recover. You are the FIRST people that I see that say something about this kind of tapes. It got jammed in 2 differents DAT drives and we had to open them to released it, it couldn't be ejected by itself. It stay trying to set the tape in the ready-to-work position but it goes over and over, trying to eject/set the tape. It seems that the drive where the problem began, has melt a kind of soft little pillow by which the tape rolls and it stuck a little of it on the tape. Furthermore, the tape is corrugated in a short part. It's written by a Colorado Tape Backup program for DOS, and when the tape finally stop and I try to do something with it, it send me the message "Error 99 - Tape drive error (192)" I can tell you more details about it, but it could be not necessary. If you need more details, as the drive models or something, just ask.

Whenever I try to read http://www.free.bsd/, I get a message saying I am not authorized and peer resets. Althogh my machine is offline, I set it to have tarkus.dyn.ml.org as host name, with which I register my dynamic ip thru dunmic DNS service available from ML.ORG, everytime I get ppp connection.

With FreeBSD 2.2.6 the PAO stuff IS integrated into the main package so provided your machine and peripherals were supported with PAO 2.2.5 you should be able to just install 2.2.6 off the CD or web site and have everything just go.... The Linux camp have made prodigious efforts in their support of laptops. I don't know if they support out of the base package but there are many very good web sites devoted to running Linux on a Laptop. A visit to your search engine of choice might be in order! Given you are already familiar with FreeBSD it would probably make sense to stick with what you know unless specific component incompatibilities make this impossible or you really want to try a new OS. You should check out the list of supported hardware at the PAO site. You might even find someone who has bothered to report your machine working! http://www.jp.freebsd.org/PAO regards, Ian "Laughing at ya!" - Funkadelic. PGP Key Available on PGP ServerRing.

So, you should put back on your TODO list that the ep driver is buggy with 3c509 cards. On the other hand, if its the original 3c509 with the problem, then don't bother, since they don't sell 'em anymore, to my knowledge. Anyway, now that I'm all set, maybe someone can direct me to some documentation on the kernel source tree. :) Sean ________________________________________________________________________ Sean Lyndersay Logic is a systematic method for coming lynders@hcs.harvard.edu to the wrong conclusion with confidence. ________________________________________________________________________ [finger for all other info] http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~lynders > -----Original Message----- > From: Paul King [mailto:paulk@ether.online.sh.cn] > Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 1998 4:17 AM > To: Sean Lyndersay; dg@root.com > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 > > > Try use the configuration of 3C509 as Win95/NT. > > ---------- > > From: Sean Lyndersay > > To: dg@root.com > > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > > Subject: RE: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 > > Date: Tuesday, March 31, 1998 2:01 PM > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: root@implode.root.com [mailto:root@implode.root.com]On Behalf Of > > > David Greenman > > > Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 1998 12:54 AM > > > To: Sean Lyndersay > > > Subject: Re: Slow network performance on 3com 3c509 > > > > > > > > > >Okay, I've removed the SB16 completely, and rebuilt the kernel > > > with no sound > > > >support.

Not sure I can help you since you mention Elm/Pine but I've suffered similar locked mailboxes when the user's mail client chokes and crashes whilst downloading/decoding a very large attachment or many messages. I attribute the subsequent "mailbox locked" errors to the socket connection not being closed in an orderly manner. In such circumstances, I've checked for lock files but found none. Usual cure is to restart the POP server and inetd but that rarely works... so I resort to the usual cure-all : reboot. (obviously it would be nice to not have to do this and disrupt all the other users so I'm all ears for surefire ways of curing this : one user in particular managed to lock his mail box very frequently) chas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 00:17:59 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA10028 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:17:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cinch.rt66.com (root@cinch.rt66.com [206.206.85.253]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA10021 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:17:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from root@cinch.rt66.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by cinch.rt66.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) id BAA05300 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 01:16:50 -0700 (MST) Date: Wed, 1 Apr 1998 01:16:50 -0700 (MST) From: Brian Message-Id: <199804010816.BAA05300@cinch.rt66.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG unsubscribe * To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 00:18:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA10072 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:18:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cinch.rt66.com (brian@cinch.rt66.com [206.206.85.253]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA10066 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:18:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brian@cinch.rt66.com) Received: (from brian@localhost) by cinch.rt66.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) id BAA05307 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 01:17:12 -0700 (MST) Date: Wed, 1 Apr 1998 01:17:12 -0700 (MST) From: brian Message-Id: <199804010817.BAA05307@cinch.rt66.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG subsribe freebsd-questions To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 00:38:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA14446 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:38:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from odyssey.apana.org.au (odyssey.apana.org.au [203.11.114.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA14437 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 00:38:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dean@odyssey.apana.org.au) Received: from localhost (dean@localhost) by odyssey.apana.org.au (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id QAA22506 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 16:39:27 +0800 (WST) Date: Wed, 1 Apr 1998 16:39:27 +0800 (WST) From: Dean Hollister To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Mailbox locked Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, To all who helped and those interested...

Could you be more specific about how you intend to install it ? Separate HD, same HD, etc ? The steps on how to do it - in any case - can be found at www.freebsd.org and also at http://www.vmunix.com/fbsd-book/ Just a small and important note: No matter how you plan to install it/them Win95 MUST be in the first disk, or it won't boot.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm cutting a custom CD for my own use (I swear I won't distribute it or anything), that contains both FreeBSD as well as several other OS's (different Linux distributions, etc.) (I maintain several machines, plus install lots of new machines a day, and it would be nice to have everything all on one CD, instead of having to lug around my whole CD case.) (This CD will contain just the "bare essentials" for installing these OS's -- minimal distributions, no extra packages, no commerce/ and xperimnt/ directories, etc. -- this is how I am fitting all OS's onto one CD.) To make things more organized, I'd like to put each OS in its own subdirectory on the CD-ROM -- freebsd/ for FreeBSD, slackware/ for Slackware Linux, redhat/ for Red Hat, and so on. Basically I'm trying to avoid an overly crowded CD-ROM root directory. As I understand it, the install boot floppy looks for the install package directories (bin/bin.[a-z][a-z], src, ports, etc.) directly off of the root of the CD-ROM. Now, for my scheme to work, I'd have to be able to change this somehow, so that it looks for them in a subdirectory of my choosing. Example: (relative to the root of the CD-ROM) /freebsd/bin/bin.aa (and .ab, and ...) /freebsd/src/src.aa (and so on) ... Is there any easy (read: quick'n dirty, without having to hack'n slash too much) way of doing this? (Yeah, I know I can kludge it using symlinks, but as I said earlier, I am trying to keep the CD-ROM's root directory as "clean" as possible.) Thanks for your assistance!

I have recently installed FBSD and it works well on my home computer. However, X sometimes does strange things. 1. Sometimes, when I start X using the startx program, the session just hangs. All I see is dotted gray background. The window manager does not start and the mouse pointer does not move. I have to kill the session with CTRL-ALT-BKSPC If I then rerun startx, the session works just fine. 2. If I run xdm from rc.local, it starts up OK, but then after I log in, the window manager does not start, and the screen just has a gray background, and at the top, there is a patch of distortion. For fear of damaging my monitor, I kill this session with CRTL-ALT-BKSPC So I cannot run xdm. 3. The third strange thing is with ctwm, the optional window manager that is supplied on the CDROM. After it has started up, I left-click to get the programs menu. If I then select a program (eg. xterm, xcalc, xmag, xv), the mouse pointer changes to a clock, and it does nothing, even if I wait for many minutes. If I then click both mouse buttons (I have enabled emulate 3 button mouse in X config) the selected program starts instantly. If I then close this program and restart it from the menu, it starts OK. Any subsequent programs start just fine. Only the first instance behaves in this strange way. Is there anything I might have misconfigured here? I have edited the system-wide xinitrc file to contain only 2 lines at the end: xclock & ctwm My hardware is Pentium 166, Cirrus Logic 5430 2 MB SVGA card, microsoft compatible 2 button mouse, EIDE 2.1 G samsung hard disk -- Anand To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 06:17:54 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA04410 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 06:17:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.welearn.com.au (suebla.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.44.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA04402 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 06:17:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sue2@phoenix.welearn.com.au) Received: (from sue2@localhost) by phoenix.welearn.com.au (8.8.5/8.8.5) id AAA19409; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 00:17:40 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <19980402001736.03800@welearn.com.au> Date: Thu, 2 Apr 1998 00:17:36 +1000 From: Sue Blake To: Willem van den Bosch Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Complete FreeBSD book References: <199804011226.WAA06829@diablo.OntheNet.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e In-Reply-To: <199804011226.WAA06829@diablo.OntheNet.com.au>; from Willem van den Bosch on Wed, Apr 01, 1998 at 10:23:03PM +1000 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Apr 01, 1998 at 10:23:03PM +1000, Willem van den Bosch wrote: > hi all > > Any one know if this is avialable in Australia, if yes from whom. http:/www.cetustech.com.au/ sales@cetustech.com.au They seem to have it in stock now with the CD set for version 2.2.5, but double check.

Looking at the database, it seems to have disappeared. In either case, the problem was that Sendmail was not masquerading as it was told to. On the outset, I realize this sounds like a Sendmail problem; however, after having involved the sendmail people and some others I know of, we weren't able to determine the origin of the problem. The solution came, mysteriously, after the 2.2.6 stuff was installed via CVSup. This tells me there may have been a library call problem. In either case, the problem is fixed, for the time being. On another related note: when is FreeBSD going to integrate BIND 8.1.1 into the core release? Is there some reason why it hasn't yet.

I am using a new kernel that I CVSUP'd yesterday (3.0-CURRENT). I am curious as to why this message is being generated, is it serious and does it mean 126Mb *more* or total? As I have 131Mb swap already I have a very hard time believing I need 126Mb more. Of course, if I already have 131Mb, I already have 126Mb don't I? Oh - swapinfo tells me I have 84Mb available. I notice there was a post from Chris Csanady on 2/21/1998 to freebsd-current ( message ID 199802212346.RAA22729@friley585.res.iastate.edu) with a similar question, but it seems there is no answer. PS - Why, when I search on swap_pager, via your Web page, does it seem to be replacing the underscore with a space? I got a lot of hits on swap, and a few more hits on pager, but nothing I could see on swap_pager. PPS - How do I CC: any replies, discussion, etc such that it will be stored in the archives?

Is there some reason why it hasn't yet. Bind 8.1.1 doesn't contain all the libraries needed for apps to talk to bind. If you want it, just build it yourself. It's quite painless.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I am an employee of a local internet service provider and I had a question about Microsoft Frontpage Server Extensions. Is there a working set of extensions for FreeBSD version 2.1.6. I have tried downloading and installing the server extension files located on microsofts homesite http://www.windows.com/frontpage/wpp/SERK/default.htm But when I tried installing the extensions using the fp_install.sh, it gets up to the point where it asks for the Frontpage Extensions tar file, which is in the same directory that I started the fp_install.sh program from. The program comes up with an error in locating the tar file. It seems like it can't find the tar file but I have tried countless number of times of pointing to the exact directory where the tar file is located but no luck. I have even tried copying the tar file to multiple directories to see if that would work, also no dice. We are currently running the old set of Frontpage extensions. If you have any suggestions as to what might be the problem please email me at: rrg@intcomm.net Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are saying that the outside world can access services on this machine then the new server can obviously see the outside world too (otherwise the outside wouldn't get any response).

That's the current (non-Beta) verson of everything, I believe. Can't get FastCGI apps to work right (fully detailed description of the problem is below). I *do* have FastCGI working perfectly on an older box, using older versions of everything, and I'm not configuring the enw ones differently. Any ideas wll be much appreciated. This is a priority, so please email direct as well as to the list. Many thanks, and apologies to anyone who receives this through more than one list. Richard Problem details are as follows: 1. I try to use the old-style "static" fastcgi apps. I insert the following in httpd.conf: SetHandler fastcgi-script AppClass /var/www/fcgi-bin/tiny-fcgi.fcgi -processes 2 The result is that Apache fails to start, with the error AppClass: could not create IPC socket 2. So I try the new "dynamic" style. Instead of the above, I insert just the following in httpd.conf: SetHandler fastcgi-script Apache now starts, but the tiny-fcgi.fcgi fails to run: URLs calling it return no response. 3. OK, so I discover that in the FastCGI IPC directory the file dynamic/mbox is being created as follows: -rw------- 1 root www 0 Apr 1 13:21 /var/www/ipc/dynamic/mbox No good, since Apache changes its uid to run as the user "www". So I chown it to be as follows: -rw------- 1 www www 0 Apr 1 13:21 /var/www/ipc/dynamic/mbox Now tiny-fcgi.fcgi works fine; but if it dies (which I simulate by killing it) it doesn't restart, and we're back to returning no response to URLs that call it.

Wow. I don't want to ask how you munged a tape that badly :-) I suspect you may want to get ahold of a commercial data recovery service.

Sure; the easiest way is to buy the CDROM and install from that. Or, you can download the files to a DOS partition or to floppies and install from there.

Assuming the install files had been copied to the DOS partition as outlined in the documentation, and that partition is a FAT16 partition, you should be set.

My name is Michael Jaskowiak. I have a Sound Blaster 16 installed in a Pentium 120, 32 Megs, 2.6Gig, ISA;PCI, computer that was made by AT&T (Globalyst 630). I put the sound card in and then edited the GENERIC file that I renamed 'canetsoft' and re-made it. I added the lines: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr options SBC_IRQ=5 device pas0 at isa? port 0x388 irq 10 drq 6 vector pasintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 to the end of the file. When It makes, it looks OK. No errors. When I reboot the computer, it tells me that the devices are not found at those addresses. Do I have the addresses wrong for the card or do I need to modify another file or something else? Any light that could be shed on this puzzle would be greatly appreciated.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm wondering if anyone's gotten Arkeia backup for linux working under freebsd. It appears the program mostly works, but it does want a "generic scsi" device for controlling the tape, and from looking at my dev directory I'm not sure that anything really matches (I think they're like /dev/sga /dev/sgb in linux). The program seems to run, but I can't get anything to backup :(. Other than that, it seems to be a reasonably decent piece of software, and seems to be more comprehensible at setting up to do network backups than amanda is (since I still haven't managed to figure out how to get amanda to work).

It appears that you have the addresses right, but why are you using pas0 device, which is for the ProAudio Spectrum PCM and MIDI? I don't believe that it is needed for the SB. If you are sure that your card is jumpered for the configuration stated above the setup looks OK.

Is there some reason why it hasn't yet. The resolver and other libraries/headers/etc. in BIND 8.1.1 are not yet ready for prime time. Word is that 8.1.2 will have some or all of this stuff fixed, but the CW for BIND is still build 4.9.6 to get the headers and libs (which we do) and if you are running a publicly accessible nameserver build 8.1.1 to get the better binaries and named.conf options. There's no way that BIND 8.x should ever go into FreeBSD 2.anything, except as a port, which we already have. :) OTOH, once it's ready for prime time BIND 8 should definitely be part of -Current, hopefully before 3.0-Release. That will be good timing for the change.

These versions that have auth up/down scripts which can be used for logging users (I cannot log users with the PPPD version 2.2 that comes installed with FreeBSD 2.2.5/2.2.6 when authenticating via CHAP as it does not create utmp entries). I have been unsuccessful at installing PPPD version 2.3.3 (the latest one that I could find). The FreeBSD patches do not seem to be compatible with any FreeBSD greater than 2.2. Has anyone been able to install PPPD 2.3 (or greater) on FreeBSD? If so, please let me know what version of PPPD you installed. I have checked the man pages, the release notes, and the Awfulhack page, but could not get any useful help for this problem. I couldn't find any help in the mailing list archives either. Or, if anyone is using PPPD 2.2 and authenticating users via CHAP, how are you properly administrating the system (i.e. keeping an eye on users, creating usage logs, etc...)?

On my new 6x86 box I have Debian on my first SCSI drivve; FreeBSD is rooted on my second SCSI. For unknown reasons the BIOS on my IWILL motherboard only sees LUN #1, my FBSD drive. So FBSD boots by default. In order to boot the Debian installation, I've got to use the Debian boot floppy. I've installed LILO; but no-joy. Nothing that I do to the BIOS setup or the (builtin) Adaptec setup causes the board to default to see drive 0. Since FreeBSD boots by default it occured to me that maybe the BSD loader will work. I did not install it with my 2.2.5 installation. Right now when I boot, after much miscellany, FreeBSD prompts me with: F1 BSD F2 BSD F3 BSD F4 BSD and FreeBSD boots regardless of what I select. My questions: Is there a way of using Booteasy to select my Debian OS on my first drive? Is it smart enough to detect a non-BSD systemm? Are there any config files to plug in? And, lastly, if Booteasy screws things up, how do I remove it!? thanks, people, gary -- Gary D.

The port compiled and installed without event. I found that the server terminates abnormally with a signal 11 when boot-time startup is enabled. When the "safe_mysqld" script tries to start the server a second time, it starts and runs without a problem. If you disable the boot-time rc.d script and start the server by hand, it will also start and run without a problem. What could be different at boot-time during the first attempt to start?

I have a FreeBSD 2.2.5 system that I run telnetd on. Here is my problem: After establishing a telnet connection to it and idling for...about 15 minutes I loose the connection. It is not an instantaneous connection drop, its only a few seconds after I start typing that it disconnects. I have tried many other clients, and my friends report the same thing from their clients. Now, I know this is not a shell setting because when I log in from the console as the same user I can idle for hours obviously and still maintain an active connection. I've tried replacing the telnetd w/ the one from a system that doesnt have these symptoms and still no luck. Its also present in the FTPd, after downloading a file of moderate length I loose the connection. Has anyone ever seen this before? Is there anything I can do? I have been struggling with this for a couple of months, any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

I was wondering what the function/intended function is of each of these default users: toor -- I can see this is a different version of root, except with a bourne-shell login; but can I get rid of it if I do not use it? Is it needed for anything? operator -- what does this run? what is it intended for? games -- what is this for? if I don't have any games on my system, do I need this user? news, uucp -- as with 'games' above for these... xten -- what is X-10? I don't think I'm running this...? As a related question, can anyone tell me for sure if it's ok to change the login shell for root? I am used to using bash, so I'd like to use that; however, is there anything that depends on root being /bin/csh? Thanks!

I cannot speak for others, but I can say that I have absolutely ZERO trouble with my Mitsumi IDE drive. The most common problem anyone has with IDE drives (from my limited experience on this list) is getting the jumper settings correct. It seems that Windows finds a cdrom just fine with buggered up jumper settings. Most folks ask a question like "My CDROM works fine in windows..." If you can handle jumpers, then you should have no trouble with your IDE CDROM. (YMMV) Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...

Don't change any partition info. You should find a switch to make a partition bootable. Just do that and quite. If you get stuck let me know and I'll boot one of my Linux distros and check it out -- been a while since I've done that. Sure hope that this does the trick for you. Keep me posted.

TRY IT! THIS MAY BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LETTER YOU WILL RECEIVE THIS YEAR!! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ***Please,... Follow The Instructions Of This Letter Very Carefully. Immediately Make A Copy, And Read It Twice.*** Subject: It's Only a Game, But You Win Big Money! Greetings, Hopefully my name is still on the list below. I am a retired attorney, and about two years ago a man came to me with a letter. The letter he brought me is basically the same as the letter in front of you now. He asked me to verify the fact that this letter was legal. I told him that I would review it and get back to him. When I first read the letter I thought it was some off-the-wall idea to make money. A week later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I told him that the letter originally brought to me was not 100% legal. My client asked me to alter the letter to make it 100% legal. I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it would be alright. I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it works. I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating. Before my client left, I asked him to keep me updated as to his results. About two months later he called to tell me that he had received over $800,000 in cash! I didn't believe him so he asked me to try the plan and see for myself. I thought about it for a couple of days and decided that there was not much to lose. I followed the instructions exactly and mailed out 200 letters. Sure enough, the money started coming! It came slowly at first, but after three weeks I was getting more than I could open in a day. After about three months the money stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my earnings and at the end it totaled $868,439.00. I was earning a good living as a lawyer, but as anyone in the legal profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress that comes with the job. I told myself if things worked out I would retire from practice and play golf. I decided to try the letter again, but this time I sent 500 letters out. Well, three months later I had totaled $2,344,178.00!!! I just couldn't believe it. I met my old client for lunch to find out how this exactly works. He told me that there were a few similar letters going around. What made this one different is the fact that there are six names on the letter, not five like most others. That fact alone resulted in far more returns. The other factor was the advice I gave him in making sure the whole thing was perfectly legal, since no one wants to risk doing anything illegal. I bet by now you are curious about what little change I told him to make. Well, if you send a letter like this out, to be legal, you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar. I told him that anyone sending a dollar out must receive something in return. So when you send a dollar to each of the six names on the list, you must include a slip of paper saying, "Please put me on your mailing list" and include your name, mailing address, and email address. (Your phone # is optional). This is the key to the program! The item you will receive for a dollar you send to the six names below, is this letter and the right to earn thousands. We will be working together to improve each others lives! Follow the simple instructions below exactly, and in less than three months you will receive over $800,000.00 GUARANTEED!!!!!! A) Immediately send $1.00 to each of the six people on the list below. Wrap the dollar in a note (type written or handwritten) saying "Please add me to your mailing list" and include your name, mailing address, and email address. Your phone number is optional: 1) Phillip Smith 24321 Sunnypointe Southfield, MI 48034 2) Claudia Stephan PO Box 1819 Carmichael, CA 95609 3) Nadia Segun PO Box 1357 Rancho Cordova, CA 95741 4) Lidia Zoring 3500 Data dr. # 147 Rancho Cordova, CA 95670 5) James Thomas 11329 S Peoria St. Chicago, IL 60643 6) Steve Gabbard 46576 Eastwood Dr. North, Oakhurst, CA 93644 B) Remove the name next to #1 on the list and move the rest of the names up one position. Then place your name in the #6 spot. This is best done by typing a new list and taping or gluing it over the old one. Or by saving this to a text file and editing it yourself and saving the new edited copy. C) When you have completed the above instructions, you have an option of mailing your new letter out in two ways: 1) Through the U.S. Postal Service or 2) through e-mail. This letter has been proven perfectly legal for both ways as long as you follow the above instructions, because you're purchasing membership in an exclusive mailing list . To mail this out over the internet, you can browse through areas and find people to send this to all the time. All you have to do is cut and paste email addresses wherever you are on the Internet. Remember, it doesn't cost anything to mail on the Internet. Or you can get a Mass Mail Network to mail it out in large volumes for you. 2 One that we recommend is: Cyber Mail ($15 / 200 names) ($25 / 500 names) ($50 / 1,500 names) 16500 North Park Dr. Suite 413 Southfield, MI 48075 (248) 557-7778 Either way will bring big payoffs. If you are going to use the traditional U.S. Postal Service to do this program, you will want to order a minimum 200 names from a mailing list company. Two that have been most effective for these lists are: ***Be sure to ask for "Opportunity Seekers" and request a list less than 30 days old*** S.E. Ring Mailing List ($26 / 200 names) P.O Box 15061 Ft. Lauderdale, FL 33318 (954) 742-9519 Advon Distributors ($28 / 200 names) P.O. Box B-11 Shelly, ID 83274 (800) 992-3866 ***Keep in mind- there is no limit to the amount of names you can send out. The more names you send, the more money you'll make. We strongly encourage you to mail this letter to family, friends and relatives as well.*** D) When your mailing list arrives, place one label on a stamped envelope and drop it in the mail box (Be sure to send out at least 200). Within 90 days, you will receive over $800,000. E) Keep a copy of this letter and all the names you receive. Mail it out again in about 6 months. But mail it to the addresses you received with each dollar. It will work again, only much better. THIS IS A SERVICE AND IS 100% LEGAL ! (Refer to title 18, Section 1302 & 1342 of the U.S. Postal and Lottery Laws) 3 Assume for example you get a 7.5% return rate, which is very conservative. My first attempt was about 9.5% and my second time was over 11%. 1) When you mail out 200 letters, 15 people will send you $1.00. 2) Those 15 mail out 200 letters, and 225 people will send you $1.00 3) Those 225 mail out 200 letters, and 3,375 people will send you $1.00 4) Those 3,375 mail out 200 letters, and 50,625 people will send you $1.00 5) Those 50,625 mail out 200 letters, and 759,375 people will send you $1.00 At this point your name drops off the list, but so far you have received $813,615.00!!!!! It works every time, but how well depends on how many letters you send out. In the example above, you mailed out 200 letters, if you mailed out 500 letters, you would have received $2,006,917!! Check the math yourself, I want you to, but I guarantee it is correct! With this kind of return, you've got to try it. Try it once and you will do it again!!! Just make sure you send a dollar to each of the six names on the list with a note to be added to their mailing list. Together we will all prosper!!!! PS You've read this far, so let me ask you one simple question: Q. What do you have to lose?? A. Only $ 6.00 What you can gain is an income, like the example in this letter. Small Risk, Small Expense, HUGE Potential Return!!! What do you have to loose? I invite you to join our mailing list today!!! Don't throw this away. Keep it, think about it, and in several months you will try it! I looked at it for over two months and then I said "it's only $6" I have to be nuts not to try it.

Thank you. > No exe to be had. UNIX doeen't use exe's. You best bet is to go to www.cdrom.com and order the FreeBSD distribution. Cost is less that $50US and the money supports the development effort -- money well spent even if after trying it you decide that FreeBSD is not for you. The FreeBSD system can indeed be downloaded from the ftp site, but unless you have a fat pipe it will be a long haul. Best of Luck.

Anyways, for this release, I simply d/l'ed the contrib332.tgz package from Xfree86.org, renamed it to contrib331.tgz so the "make install" would find it, stuck it in /usr/ports/distfiles, and ran "make install", telling it to ignore the wrong file size. Seems to have worked. The make install script seems to only apply one patch to the xman section, in vendor.c, and the patch still took.

Ummm I tried an install without Kerberos/DES.. It seems user ppp needs DES, at least.. "Can't find libdes.so" or some such nonsense.... installing just the DES package worked, though. - Bob Governments, like diapers, should be changed often, and for the same reason. bjg@otherspace.net | http://www.otherspace.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 20:50:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA17542 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 20:50:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from phoenix.welearn.com.au (suebla.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.44.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA17531 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 20:50:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sue2@phoenix.welearn.com.au) Received: (from sue2@localhost) by phoenix.welearn.com.au (8.8.5/8.8.5) id OAA21662; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 14:50:10 +1000 (EST) Message-ID: <19980402145006.12250@welearn.com.au> Date: Thu, 2 Apr 1998 14:50:06 +1000 From: Sue Blake To: Frank Pawlak Cc: sderdau@xtdl.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Re[2]: login_getclass unknown class References: <19980402113719.25471@welearn.com.au> <199804020356.VAA08970@darkstar.connect.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e In-Reply-To: <199804020356.VAA08970@darkstar.connect.com>; from Frank Pawlak on Wed, Apr 01, 1998 at 09:56:41PM -0600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Apr 01, 1998 at 09:56:41PM -0600, Frank Pawlak wrote: > Sue Blake wrote: > > On Wed, Apr 01, 1998 at 07:25:46PM -0600, Frank Pawlak wrote: > > > You might want to check out the errata for release 2.2.2 > > > > That won't necessarily help. > > > > Why doesn't somebody just tell this guy where the file he is missing > > can be found, and leave it at that. > > > > -- > > I agree totally, and you pointed him to??? I don't know the correct answer so I won't guess. IIRC the errata on the CD was wrong. The errata for 2.2.2 does not appear to be available on the FTP site. The errata for 2.2.5 doesn't address this problem. The mail archive contains scores of guesses that won't help. The answer was kindly posted here earlier this week but would not be in the mail archive yet. The only useful answer is the location of the file he needs.

Mark, Look into what settings are in your kernel and compare them to what you have set on the card. In this case I would guess the problem is a mismatch in the memory address (most NIC cards default to 0x300 I believe) and this is a matter of rebuilding the kernel or modifying jumpers on the card. You can usually find out what memory address your kernel is looking for by taking a look at /var/log/messages. -Scott To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 1 22:00:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA27427 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 22:00:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from silver.sms.fi (silver.sms.fi [194.111.122.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA27358 for ; Wed, 1 Apr 1998 22:00:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pete@silver.sms.fi) Received: (from pete@localhost) by silver.sms.fi (8.8.8/8.7.3) id JAA10227; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 09:00:22 +0300 (EEST) Date: Thu, 2 Apr 1998 09:00:22 +0300 (EEST) Message-Id: <199804020600.JAA10227@silver.sms.fi> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 From: Petri Helenius To: Dave Marquardt Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ipv6 support for FreeBSD2.2.5 ?

Sue, Your absolutly correct. I answered the question in haste. What I should have stated was that the release 2.2.2. errata addresses this issue and it is on the web site under release information. I think that I made a hasty RTFM assumption when I should have taken the time to direct him to the web site. If you still have his e-mail address, would you be good enough to foreward this information to him along with my sincere appologies. BTW, how are things in Australia? I am in Milwaukee Wisconsin USA. Either you are up early and I am up late or both. It is now 12 midnight here. You folks must be just starting the fall season, we are finally getting spring. I understand that it has been dry there. We had a very mild winter and it has been wet -- rain. We usually get about 47 inches of snow, but are not near that this winter so far, as it can snow here in May sometimes. Good talking with you, and again my appology for being terse.

As I don't want to attempt to run it on FreeBSD yet, I have REMmed all SCSI devices out on the new kernel (MYKERNEL). However, maybe the software has detected that there is a card there anyhow, but not on your list (or is it?) I have looked up my handbook, and it says it loads ASPI416.SYS, and SJIIIX.SYS on MSDOS 7.0 applcations. Does this help at all? In summary: Is there a way round this. Will the proprietry HP SCSI Scanner Card interfere with FreeBSD? Can I run it maybe later (I'm told this model is not as configurable as the early HP Scanjets.). Please reply....I am enjoying FreeBSD anyhow, but would like to build my own kernel.

Two ways. I recommend getting a cd-rom as it's heaps fast and easy. The other way is by floppy disk and it's time consuming and _not_fun_! Have a look at http://www.uk.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html basically you have to download all the distributions (eg: bin) and put them in a dir on the floppy of the same name as where they came from (eg: in the bin dir) Make sure that the bin.inf file is in the same dir, and I think it has to be on the first diskette. If you are installing multiple distributions (as you will) put the .inf file for the next distribution in the appropriate subdirectory on the last floppy of the previous distribution. Say for example you did the bin then man distributions, on the last diskette for the bin distribution have a manpages dir with manpages.inf in it. I don't recommend using floppies though if you can do it any other way. Beg on -chat for someone in the uk to copy one for you and give them some money, or buy the cd from walnut creek http://www.cdrom.com (recommended!) get the book as well.

Since those are completely unrelated, I'll post a few messages. Apologies for the inconvenience. During installation, Lynx is set as the default html browser. This is pretty sensible, since most users won't be able to start an X server from scratch. Anyhow, when trying to go to the html Documentation from /stand/sysinstall, the following error message appears: Unable to fetch package lynx-2.7.1 from selected media. No package add will be done. Now how am I to read the docs? it would be a nice idea to add some lynx version to the default packages installed on all machines, since html is such a nice documentation format. No, no answer neccessary -- I already know how to got to the ports.For beginners this would be an unresolvable chicken-egg problem circle.

The installation completed, I did the obligatory restart. Yep, there was the F5 selection for another disk; so hop over to the new hd containing the just installed FBSD 2.2.5 using the F5 selection. here it comes: > [F5] >> FreeBSD BOOT @ 0x10000: 640/31744 k of memory, internal console Boot default: 1:wd(1,a)kernel ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIS IS WRONG! There is no primary slave IDE disk installed. The kernel resides on "1:wd(2,a)/kernel", the secondary master. So obviously there is a problem within the installation process, which should be fixed for the next release (3.0, 2.2.6 is already out I heard).

Actually, you do this from DOS. Fish `bootinst.exe' and `boot.bin' from the CDROM or FTP site in tools/ , run lock, then run bootinst. Use the `lock' command to free Window's lock on the MBR.

It appears to be limited to installation only. 2.2.6 has explicit support for the IDE ZIP so you will want to install that. Hopefully the installer won't barf on it. ( I don't have an IDE ZIP or I'd try it.)

Of course, if I already have 131Mb, I already have 126Mb don't I? Oh - > swapinfo tells me I have 84Mb available. Hm, I'm wondering if a variable is rolling over then. The message appears in src/sys/vm/swap_pager.c, function swap_pager_getswapspace(): static int swap_pager_getswapspace(object, amount, rtval) vm_object_t object; unsigned int amount; daddr_t *rtval; { unsigned location; vm_swap_size -= amount; if (!suggest_more_swap && (vm_swap_size < btodb(cnt.v_page_count * PAGE_SIZE))) { printf("swap_pager: suggest more swap space: %d MB\n", (2 * cnt.v_page_count * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 1000); suggest_more_swap = 1; } [...] cnt.v_page_count or vm_swap_size may be rolling over. You can disable this by either #ifdef'ing it out or setting suggest_more_swap = 1 before this block. I'll pass this on to John Dyson, or VM guru, for further analysis. > PS - Why, when I search on swap_pager, via your Web page, does it seem to be > replacing the underscore with a space?

I think this is part of the "Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." philosophy, although (IMHO) Frank could have phrased his answer a little better. I just went to the search engine, and put "Login_getclass" in the mailing list search box. I looked at the results. Since this is an e-mail archive, I know that any replies *should* have "Re: " at the beginning of the subject line. Since I'm looking for answers to questions, I want to ignore anything that doesn't have "Re: " at the start of the subject, since it's probably someone else asking exactly the same question. Result #4 is the first one that looks promising, 4.Tim Moony Re: inetd[xxxx]: login_getclass: unknown class 'root' and following that link does take me to a message that explains the problem. For jollies, I did the same search on the web pages. The *very* first hit was for , and the first entry on that page is o login as root produces "login_getclass: unknown class 'root'" on system console. Fix: If you have the source distribution installed, simply cp /usr/src/etc/login.conf /etc otherwise, get it from the FreeBSD FTP site using this URL: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/etc/login.conf instead. Simply cd to /etc and then run fetch(1)> with the provided URL. As I've said (in e-mail to Sue), it's very easy to think "Ah, I've got a problem, I'll just send off a quick e-mail to the mailing lists, it's so much easier than searching." If everyone does that the lists start to drown in a sea of repeated questions. And after a while the people that do answer the questions (well, me, anyway) get bored of answering the same questions, and start to ignore them. Which benefits no one. [ In case it's not clear: that's my opinion above, and I have no idea if anyone else on -questions holds it. It's certainly not an 'official' opinion of the FreeBSD project. ] N -- Work: nik@iii.co.uk | FreeBSD + Perl + Apache Rest: nik@nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk | Remind me again why we need Play: nik@freebsd.org | Microsoft?

It would actually detect during the pci probe. Is there any devices listed during the PCI bus probe as type ethernet with no driver assigned? I didn't think 100mbit NE2000 cards existed.

I've just had a look at the "Support" page. Hmm. IMHO, one of the first things that should say is something like All the FreeBSD mailing list messages and newsgroup postings are archived and can be searched. This should be your first port of call if you have a problem or question, because it is likely that someone else has had the same problem. Please be aware that every member of the mailing lists is a volunteer, and if your question has been asked (and answered) a lot they may be bored of answering it. It's in everyone's best interests if you search before posting. and then a link to the search page. And then the search page should have a "Tips for effective searching" link at the top, probably something like: Finding information in the FreeBSD archives can be a fine art, the mastery of which can make your life much easier. Please see these _tips for effective searching_ for more information. "Tips for effective searching" then looks something like Error messages If you are having a problem that is generating a specific error message, try searching for the error message. Replies Most e-mail and newsgroup replies start with "Re: ". Searching for this will find all the replies and not the original message. Chances are that it is the replies you are looking for. and so on. I'm sure there are more tips (including those in searchhints.html) Anyone else agree? If so, we can probably thrash out the wording a bit more and get something into shape. If some enterprising soul wants to do that then please, go for it. Otherwise I'll put it on my stack.

Well, both IPv6 is still a bit of a moving target, but on the other hand, current is bleeding edge. I believe someone at INRIA also did a port of the INRIA IPv6 code to current, so it's certainly doable. The bigger problem I see is keeping in synch with INRIA. Since IPv6 is a moving target, so's the INRIA code. Francis Dupont and his team have made it easy to add the code to FreeBSD at various release levels. They provide the changed files, and you just unpack them on top of /usr/src, build world, and away you go. The INRIA code also runs on NetBSD, and in my day job, I'm part of a team that ported the INRIA code to IBM's AIX. -Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 2 05:48:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA11539 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 05:48:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from localhost.zilker.net (jump-x2-1025.jumpnet.com [207.8.67.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA11534 for ; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 05:48:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marquard@zilker.net) Received: (from marquard@localhost) by localhost.zilker.net (8.8.8/8.8.3) id HAA15839; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 07:48:14 -0600 (CST) To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: /usr on more that one drive?

Though I'm not sure how to get your /usr on a ccd in a fresh install.

I run dumps every night to a separate hard disk in the system every night through cron. It really doesn't need the user attention to change tapes and so forth, and for months it worked fine. Now the strange part is: when running dump through cron (as root in /etc/crontab) it ALWAYS hangs midway through dumping the large /usr file system (there is plenty of space on the backup disk by the way) every time. However, when I run it as root normally, it completes EVERY time without a hitch. There are no errors associated with the hang, just a look at top reveals that all the dump processes have gone to "pause" mode. At first I thought it might be waiting for some kindof user input or something, but then why would I need user input when running through cron always on a certain file system, while when running it normally as root it completes the entire backup fine every time (to give you an idea I've done each about 20 times, just to make sure that I wasn't playing the odds.) Anyone know what could be causing this? Please cc any reply via e-mail.

We could probably port it. Unfortunately it's a commercial product. They support a couple of flavors of unix, but I think linux was the only one that we have any sort of compatability with. I suspect the real problem is our linux compatability missing some stuff, I do remember seeing a message about an unsupported ioctl in messages. Anybody that wants to look at it, it's at www.knox-software.com. Hmm, the listed platforms for pc unix are linux and sco (3.2, Openserver 5, Unixware V 2.x). I seem to recall we have some sco compatability, but I don't remember to what extent. Of course, the plus with their shareware version (which is only available in the linux flavor) is that it does everything I need without having to lay out a whole ton of money.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In addition to FBSD machines, we have several Sunboxes ; on these, we run Netscape mail server as opposed to sendmail. I don't like NS mail server but there is one good thing - the ability to use LDAP records for managing and maintaining users. This has the following advantages : - I have only to update users on the LDAP server and all my other machines in the application environment will be updated. (that includes news/mail/web servers and NT servers which can be synchronised) - Transfering/backing up user data is simple and cross platform... export an LDIF file and import it into the new LDAP server. - There is no need for mail users to even have an account on server. (good for security). Since I am moving more and more towards FreeBSD, is there any support for such total user administration via LDAP ? There is slapd (an LDAP server for unix) but the applications (eg. sendmail) are unable to integrate with it. Wouldn't this be particularly appealing to ISPs with their multiple systems ? Any pointers to future developments with LDAP on FreeBSD would be greatly appreciated, Thank you very much, chas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 2 10:45:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA05778 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 10:45:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA05757 for ; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 10:45:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA09109; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 10:45:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Thu, 2 Apr 1998 10:45:31 -0800 (PST) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: Juan Yanez cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: CDROM problem In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, 1 Apr 1998, Juan Yanez wrote: > When I try to mount the CDROM I get the message "device not configured". > Prior to doing this I loaded a CD in to the drive and waited for 5 > minutes, however I could not mount the drive.

No, that search should have returned hundreds of responses just like this: If you get the message: panic: Cannot mount root At the end of the probe sequence you should either: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other parameters unchanged). I could make a better determination if I have the kernel boot output, particuarly for the wdc probes. Your .sig is ... extensive.

You have your disks split across the controllers and this confuses the heck out of the boot blocks. Move the disk to the primary controller. If you don't want to do that, you're going to get the obligatory ``can't mount root''. If you really really want to have the disks split, then follow these instructions: 1. Have the line: config kernel root on wd2 in your kernel config, OR: 2.

The company in charge of maintaining this server hardly replies to my e-mail since i paid, and I am going through a lot of minor problems. (I live in Asia and it's very hard for me to monitor everything on this computer which is in the US). They adviced me and installed FreeBSD on that server. At the moment the stat program they set up (MKStats) does not work and they don't reply to my emails (except with autoresponders!!!) Do you know any stat programs that could be setup for different directories (I guess they all do that) and would give me the following information: - disk space of the dir - traffic of the dir (bandwith usage) - hits - origin - referrer - different pages hit No. - online access through any browser with instant stats (nice output would be great, but not a priority) and also that I could install with Telnet (I guess this is the only way). Well I hope this was clear enough so you can answer.

There is a "SetUID" patch you can apply to Apache seperately which will execute CGIs under their author's ownership, assuming certain security restrictions are met. If you want to call a suid program from your CGI, using your CGI programme as something of a security wrapper, I think that might work nicely too, though I've never tried this. -dan -- // dannyman yori aiokomete || Our Honored Symbol deserves \\/ http://www.dannyland.org/~dannyman/ || an Honorable Retirement (UIUC) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 2 11:59:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA26152 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 11:59:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from arh0300.urh.uiuc.edu (arh0300.urh.uiuc.edu [130.126.72.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA26137 for ; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 11:59:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dannyman@arh0300.urh.uiuc.edu) Received: (from dannyman@localhost) by arh0300.urh.uiuc.edu (8.8.8/8.8.5) id NAA10846; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 13:59:28 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <19980402135928.26195@arh0300.urh.uiuc.edu> Date: Thu, 2 Apr 1998 13:59:28 -0600 From: dannyman To: Donna Carney , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: General questions on FreeBSD Mail-Followup-To: Donna Carney , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <000801bd5e68$15143ee0$c82c12ac@newconn1.thomas.tec.ga.us> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i In-Reply-To: <000801bd5e68$15143ee0$c82c12ac@newconn1.thomas.tec.ga.us>; from Donna Carney on Thu, Apr 02, 1998 at 01:49:29PM -0500 X-Loop: djhoward@uiuc.edu X-URL: http://www.uiuc.edu/ph/www/djhoward/ Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, Apr 02, 1998 at 01:49:29PM -0500, Donna Carney wrote: > I work at a Technical Institute.

I haven't written in a few days. I have the 6.4 GIG hard drive in 3 equal partitions. C and D for DOS, and I want the E drive for FreeBSD. I went into DOS's fdisk and deleted the E drive. So now when I run windows, the C drive is 2.1 megs, the D drive is still 2.1 megs, and the E drive is gone (so the CD-Rom, etc moved down a letter..). Then I ran FIPS on the FreeBSD CD-Rom to split the Extended Partition (the 4.2 meg part that contained the D & E drives). It says "FIPS can't split extended partitions". What should I do? Below is what the FIPS screen looks like: Part|Boot|Head Cyl Sect|System|Head Cyl Sect|Start Sect|Num Sectors|MB 1 yes 1 0 1 06h 254 260 63 63 4192902 2047 2 no 0 261 1 05h 254 782 63 4192965 8385930 4094 3 no 0 0 0 00h 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 no 0 0 0 00h 0 0 0 0 0 0 Thank you very much.

That's the smallest SCSI 2.0GB disk is at 600 DM, the smallest IDE at 300DM. You're right, SCSI would give that much more performance, but I can afford IDE only at this time.

It has a Pentium II 300MHz, 1 GB RAM, Tyan Tiger mainboard, Matrox Millenium II AGP, and a SoundBlaster 16. I had to remove 3 of the DIMMs until I could compile a kernel with the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option removed. Once this was done I was able to boot with all of the DIMMs installed. However, I am now getting the following message: snd:unable to allocate 65536 bytes of buffer MIDI still works but, /dev/audio and /dev/dsp are non-functional obviously. Is this due to removing the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option from the kernel? If so, how can I keep the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option and still use all the DIMMs? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -------------------------------------------------------- Gregory M.

You can't boot off a CCD at the moment (There is someone working on a similar / bootable driver to CCD) - and if you _really_ want your /usr filesystem to run off a CCD it's going to take a bit of jigging around... You'll need to make sure the CCD is setup and mounted very early in the boot stage... It should be possible though (and after the above paragraph someones bound to jump in and say it's easy just do 'xxxxx' ;-) CCD's performance wise are good - though it does vary with the types of file (small vs. large) and the types of read / writes you do...

Something similar on the web pages would be good, except that people looking at the web pages have no idea that each mailto: is broadcasting to a mailing list rather than an individual.

I am new to the many Unix variations but I thought that I should get to know the system since a large mass of the web is based on Unix. Anyways, I have all of the files that I need and I have the boot.flp image on a disk to boot to. The problem is that after I set up everything I can't run the installation. To clarify what I mean is that either when I try to begin the install via FTP it gives me a message saying that it can't find ftp.freebsd.org (the server I intend to use). I realize that I must connect to my PPP server at my ISP, but how do I get an active connection so I can get the installation under way? If you would be so kind to as email me directly instead of posting the answer to this group it would be greatly appreciated.

1. what do I configure in the kernel = (sio1?)
2. which /dev device do I talk to with = minicom?
3. are there any /etc files that I need to=20 configure
 
I am tring to use minicom from my laptop to talk to = my Sun=20 boxes when i build them.
 
I *have* had a go myself with limited success. If = anyone knows=20 or can point me to a URL or FAQ I would be greatly = appreciative.

The commands 'uptime' and 'top' on FreeBSD both obtain three values through the kernel variable '_averunnable'. Actually, '_averunnable' points to an array in /dev/kmem which holds three values. After both commands get those values, they make them divided by FSCALE as "load average". One of my questions is how those three values in that array be generated by FreeBSD kernel. In other words, what factors does FreeBSD kernel depend on to determine the term "load average"?? I know the value of FSCALE on FreeBSD is 2048, because I printed the constant in a program. And on SunOs, FSCALE is 256, right? What is "256 scale array" or "2048 scale array"? What do thay mean? And why do we have to make the values that get from that array in /dev/kmem divided by FSCALE? Thank you very much, and have a nice day.

There is a description of the load average (and process priority) calculation on pages 94-95 of "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System", by McKusick et al. I believe that FSHIFT and FSCALE are used to scale the integers for doing the fixed-point decimal calculations of the load average. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Apr 2 23:36:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA11397 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 23:36:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mx5.nisiq.net (po.mx5.nisiq.net [163.139.201.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA11363 for ; Thu, 2 Apr 1998 23:36:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hitanaka@mx5.nisiq.net) Received: from mx5.nisiq.net (d09.tsu-usr1.nisiq.net [163.139.251.137]) by mx5.nisiq.net (8.8.8/3.6W 98/03/18) with ESMTP id QAA09297 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 16:36:10 +0900 (JST) Message-ID: <35249148.CAFAB97@mx5.nisiq.net> Date: Fri, 03 Apr 1998 16:35:36 +0900 From: Hideki Tanaka X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [ja] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: =?iso-2022-jp?B?RnJlZS1CU0QbJEIkTiUkJXMlOSVIITwlayRLJEQkJCRGGyhC?= Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-2022-jp Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG $B=i$a$^$7$F!"EDCf$H?=$7$^$9!#(B $B;d$O3X@8$J$N$G$9$,!"Bg3X$G#U#N#I#X$r$D$+$&5!2q$,$"$k$?$a(B freeBSD$B$bJY6/$7$h$&$H<+Bp$N(BPC/AT$B8_495!!J%G%k$N%G%#%a%s%7(B $B%g%s!K$K%$%s%9%H$r;n$_$F$$$^$9!#4D6-$H$7$F$O!"(B CPU$B!'(BPenII$B!!(B266Mhz Chip$B!'(B440FX$B!!(BNatoma$B!!(BPCI HDD$B!'(BIBM$B!!(BE-IDE$B!!(B6.4GB$B!((BIBM$B!!(BU-SCSI$B!!(B4.0GB MO$B!'(BFujitsu$B!!%b%C%-%s%P!<%I!!(B230WF SCSI$B!!(BI/F$B!'(BAdaptec$B!!(BAHA-2940AU $B%M%C%H%o!<%/!'$J$7(B $B$H$$$C$?46$8$G$9!#(B $B$G!"(Bwidows$B$N%V!<%H$,$"$k(BE-IDE$B$N(BHDD$B$K@lMQ$N%Q!<%F%#%7%g%s$r(B $B$-$C$F(BC:$B$H(BD:$B$r4pK\NN0h!J(BD:$B$O1#$7(BFAT$B!K$H$7$F!"(BD:$B$K(BFree-BSD$B$r(B $B%$%s%9%H$7$^$7$?!#$7$+$7!"(BFree-BSD$B$N%V!<%H$N$H$-$K(BSCSI$B%\!<%I(B $B$+$i$bH?1~$,$J$$$H$$$&$3$H$G!"1J1s$H%j%V!<%H$r7+$jJV$7$F$7$^(B $B$$$^$9!#$3$l$O!"(BSCSI$B%+!<%I$N%I%i%$%P$NLdBj$+$H$b;W$C$?$N$G$9(B $B$,!"%$%s%9%H$N;~$N%G%P%$%9@_Dj$G$O(BPCI$B$N%I%i%$%P8uJd$K(BAdaptec $B$N(B294X$B$,$-$A$s$HF~$C$F$$$?$7!"LdBj$J$$$h$&$K;W$$$^$9!#$9$k$H!"(B $B%G%P%$%9$,0-$$$N$+$H$$$&$3$H$K$J$j$^$9$+$i!"(BSCSI$B$N%[%9%H%"%@(B $B%W%?$N%?!<%_%M!<%?$rD4@0$7$F!"#M#O$r$O$:$7$F%V!<%H$7$?$j$7$^(B $B$7$?$,!"$d$O$j$&$^$/$$$-$^$;$s!#$b$7$+$7$F!"%[%9%H%"%@%W%?>e(B $B$N(BBIOS$B$r(Bdisable$B$K$7$F5/F0$7$J$1$l$P$J$i$J$$$N$+$J$H$b;W$C$F(B $B$$$^$9$,!"$3$l$O$^$@ Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA15288 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 00:00:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE (gilberto.physik.rwth-aachen.de [137.226.30.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA15255; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 00:00:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kuku@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE) Received: (from kuku@localhost) by gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE (8.8.7/8.8.7) id KAA00389; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 10:02:18 +0200 (MEST) (envelope-from kuku) Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 10:02:18 +0200 (MEST) From: Christoph Kukulies Message-Id: <199804030802.KAA00389@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE> To: freebsd-questions@freefall.FreeBSD.org, java@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: netscape 4.04, java, XFree331, 24bpp, Matrox Mill Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My netscape 4.04 is still dying when I'm clicking the java console or java is started by hitting some java web page (www.javasoft.com).

This is definitely a misassumption. > How can I get the configuration file to write to the hard Drive ? You need to explain in terms that we can understand. FreeBSD doesn't load drivers, they're part of the kernel. If a driver doesn't find its device, it says so and forgets about it. That's not a problem. If you're worried about the messages, don't.

Maybe ... i encounter similar problems where my machine suddenly freezes (no log, no error, no nothing ... just sudden-death). I noticed it must be something with the scsi-system (while listening to the old good 'Ludwig van' ;) I changed the terminating device from CDROM to the tape-drive (SONY SDT-7000). Then this freezes did not happen as often as they did when the CDROM was terminating my scsi-bus. I suspect TERM-POWER is causing this trouble but i am not sure. I have played with the term-power config a little: 1. no term-power (same as no active terminator) [bad idea] 2. term-power connected just to the terminator, not the scsi-bus [good idea] 3. term-power connected to the terminator AND the scsi-bus [not so good] Best results gave nr. 2. so far (waiting for the next freeze with this config). My freezes always occur on heavy concurrent diskaccess. My scsi-system: controller, 3 scsi-disks, cdrom, tape, zip. It is not an OS-specific problem since this shit also happens with Win-95. On the next freeze i will take a disk as terminating device. If this will not solve my problems, i will order a new scsi-controller and forget about my adaptec-2940. Maybe you want to play with your scsi-bus-termination. Let me know about your results.

The only thing I can say at the moment is that a cross-over cable between two fxp devices isn't a configuration that I test here. I did try to use them that way when I originally wrote the fxp driver a few years ago, but I couldn't get it to work reliably. When I asked the Intel NPD folks about this, their reply was "cross-over cables aren't supported with the Pro/100B". Gack. This was prior to when support for full duplex was added, and since then I've heard reports that cross-over cables worked okay. What is strange about your problem report is that there was *very* little change in the driver between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6 - nothing that should affect your machine, only support for properly detecting some newer cards. This leads me to think that the problem isn't in the device driver. So, I really have no idea... -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 01:16:28 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA00808 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 01:16:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from aurora.wigan-leigh.ac.uk (aurora.wigan-leigh.ac.uk [194.83.191.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA00787 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 01:16:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from W.Potter@wigan-leigh.ac.uk) Received: by aurora.wigan-leigh.ac.uk; (5.65v3.2/1.3/10May95) id AA20053; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 10:23:23 +0100 Message-Id: From: Wesley Potter To: "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG'" Subject: bin files Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 10:26:03 +0100 X-Mailer: Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector Version 4.0.837.3 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 ftp://ftp.uk.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.6-RELEASE/bin/bin.ai When I try to download the above file it tries to download it a bin.ps could you please tell me why or e-mail me this file?

Much of C programs are made up of macros which are expanded to real C code by cpp. gcc silently runs cpp to do the macro expansion for it. (you can watch gcc invoke cpp by including the option '-v' when running gcc.) cpp does not care about linker related issues such as 'where to look for libs', so they should not be being passed to it. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 02:03:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA08388 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 02:03:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from skink.bluetongue.com (skink.bluetongue.com [203.8.105.52] (may be forged)) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA08333; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 02:02:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from drew@bluetongue.com.au) Received: from localhost (drew@localhost) by skink.bluetongue.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id UAA01240; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 20:02:26 +1000 (EST) Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 20:02:26 +1000 (EST) From: Andrew Heath X-Sender: drew@skink.bluetongue.com To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG, hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Memory Leak???

Send mail to mime@docserver.cac.washington.edu for more info. --0-630462094-891597746=:1028 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Dear Questions.... I am at a loss to explain my problem, I have tried almost everything I can think of with our configuration, and I am running into major problems. We run a webserver which supports about 50 clients, and uses alot of CGI developed scripts as a back end. The server seems to have some sort of memory leak, and I cannot for the life of me plug it. I have included the sysctl -a output, the kernel configuration and the httpd configuration as attachments in the hope that someone will see something that I can't. The 'top' output from our server looks like this: last pid: 1173; load averages: 0.07, 0.09, 0.08 19:58:40 49 processes: 1 running, 48 sleeping CPU states: 1.0% user, 0.0% nice, 1.5% system, 1.9% interrupt, 95.6% idle Mem: 60M Active, 14M Inact, 16M Wired, 8344K Buf, 34M Free Swap: 384M Total, 128K Used, 384M Free We have 128 Mb RAM and are running 2.2.5 release on a Pentium Pro 200. I appreciate any assistance here, as our server is now continually comung up with a CGI can't spawn child process error, and as we are running a reasonable heavily loaded server, this is a problem. FYI we are also running a reasonable loaded DNS server, and Hughes MiniSQL. The mimiSQL server is running as "nobody" I look forward to your replies.

I now have a 2nd machine so I can try to telnet when next my system hangs. I have also had great success in reducing my hangs by running the following program from another virtual console: #include #include int main (void) { for(;;) { sync(); sleep(12); } } This does a sync() every 12 seconds. I leave it running and I haven't had a hang since (there was one, but I think I had suspended the syncer before that hang). bryan k ogawa http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 02:29:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA11618 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 02:29:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from eiche.pk.she.de (eiche.pk.she.de [193.98.90.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA11609 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 02:29:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from christoph.sold@pk.she.de) Received: from [194.45.219.71] (ph071.pk.she.de [194.45.219.71]) by eiche.pk.she.de (8.8.8/8.7.6) with ESMTP id MAA18325; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 12:28:58 +0200 X-Sender: pu071@eiche.pk.she.de Message-Id: In-Reply-To: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 10:09:39 +0200 To: Doug White From: Christoph Sold Subject: Re: BootEasy does not boot from the right disk (2.2.5-RELEASE) Cc: Christoph Sold , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 21:24 Uhr +0200 02.04.1998, Doug White wrote: >On Thu, 2 Apr 1998, Christoph Sold wrote: > >> >> FreeBSD BOOT @ 0x10000: 640/31744 k of memory, internal console >> Boot default: 1:wd(1,a)kernel >> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIS IS WRONG! >> There is no primary slave IDE disk installed.

Well, although this should work, it would prevent me to ever move anything to wd(1,a), wouldn't it? All I really needed was the hint to boot.config and a few hours of sleep.

Your problem sounds very similar to one we had which turned out to be a cluster of configuration options not getting on very well with each other. There's some excellent guidance on tuning a FreeBSD system for better web server performance at http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/perf-bsd44.html We found that tuning the kernel with the options specified really helped, particularly setting maxusers to 256 But that didn't solve things completely. The real nub of the problem was that requests through CGI were stacking up trying to talk to the Msql server, and a bit of delay in the db's response caused impatient users to click again. The processes would wait until they'd got their stuff from the db, then try to chuck it back at a closed socket. We did 2 things which completely sorted the situation. We optimised the database (the developers hadn't indexed a single field on a busy public registration service!!!), getting a faster response and fewer multiple clicks. And we looked at /etc/login.conf and I believe we changed something there, though I wasn't party to that conversation. The clue was that Apache was happy spawning httpd child processes, but those children couldn't spawn their own children for CGI. Someone else on this list should be able to clarify this.

It uses both. Anecdotal evidence suggests that if you plan on having 128 MB of swap (for example) and you have two disks, it's better to have 2 64MB swap partitions, since the system spreads the load over the disks. I say "anecdotal" because I haven't seen any hard figures showing how much of an improvement this is. Doubtless they exist, but I don't know where.

I'm struggling with a brand-spanking new HP6100cse. My system utterly locks up whenever I access the scanner. Anytime I access /dev/pt0, using any of the software that supposedly supports hp scanners (commercial xvscan -- FreeBSD binaries or freshly compiled -- hpscan or sane 0.71), the *entire* system locks up. I'll give a little more info below ... but I'm mainly interested in learning whether this is a solvable problem in a reasonable time frame, or that I should return some of my recent equipment purchases while I still can. So, I ask again: is *anyone* using a scanner with 3.0-current? How about 2.2-? HP or other? /dev/pt0 or other? Best regards -- Larry S.

The mimiSQL server is running as "nobody" One word: /etc/login.conf According to the information you supplied, you have gobs of free resources, but /etc/login.conf sets limits on how much users can use. Put the attached cgi script in your cgi-bin and call it. It will report limits that the web server is running under. The limits specified under "daemon" in /etc/login.conf are in effect when /etc/rc is run, which I presume is when you are starting apache and friends. You probably need to boost the number of processes that daemon can run. Resource limits are inherited and don't change unless explicitly changed by the process. Init sets the limits according to the daemon entry in /etc/login.conf when running /etc/rc. Thus, httpd daemons started by boot by root running as nobody inherit the limits for daemon. -john --0-720294148-891614089=:357 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; name=env Content-Transfer-Encoding: BASE64 Content-ID: Content-Description: env IyEvYmluL3NoDQoNCiMNCiMgUHJpbnQgc29tZSBpbmZvcm1hdGlvbiBhYm91 dCB0aGUgb3BlcmF0aW5nIGVudmlyb25tZW50DQojIG9mIHRoZSBodHRwZCBk YWVtb24gYW5kIHRoZSBjZ2kgc2NyaXB0cyBpdCBydW5zLg0KIw0KDQplY2hv ICJDb250ZW50LXR5cGU6IHRleHQvcGxhaW4iDQplY2hvICIiDQoNCmVjaG8g IkkgYW06Ig0KaWQNCg0KZWNobyAiIg0KZWNobyAiTGltaXRzOiINCnVsaW1p dCAtYQ0KDQplY2hvICIiDQplY2hvICJFbnZpcm9ubWVudDoiDQplbnYNCg0K ZWNobyAiIg0KZWNobyAiVXB0aW1lOiINCnVwdGltZQ0KDQoNCg== --0-720294148-891614089=:357-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 06:37:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA13420 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 06:37:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from buffnet4.buffnet.net (buffnet4.buffnet.net [205.246.19.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA13356 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 06:37:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from shovey@buffnet.net) Received: from buffnet11.buffnet.net (buffnet11.buffnet.net [205.246.19.55]) by buffnet4.buffnet.net (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id JAA24682; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 09:30:11 -0500 (EST) Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 09:30:11 -0500 (EST) From: Steve Hovey To: Mark Tinguely cc: fred@madtec.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Web stat programs for FreeBSd In-Reply-To: <199804031432.IAA19242@plains.NoDak.edu> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We use something called webtrends - its a commercial product but it saved us a lot of work and it cuts reports six ways from wednesday.

Hm, sounds like a tcp_extensions problem. Does the client have to go through an Ascend box? You might try setting tcp_extensions to NO in /etc/rc.conf.

Some people will do anything. root:*:0:0:Charlie &:/root:/bin/csh toor:*:0:0:Bourne-again Superuser:/root: I forget if toor is in the default /etc/passwd or if I added it. But its there in case csh gets mangled, or the root account gets mangled (~/.cshrc for example). Once Upon A Time under Irix 3.3.3, a space got appended to the end of root's /etc/passwd entry. As silly as that may seem, it was enough to keep root out.

You need to have the proper name of the local machine in the tape host machine's root .rhosts and /etc/hosts.equiv. Proper name is found how it's resolved by dns (if dns is first in you host.conf file) or the first on the line in your /etc/hosts (if hosts is first).

Is there any good tutorial on doing tape backups? I have a lot of unanswered questions and all the process is not clean for in details.. Is it really impossible to know current tape position? How to exclude some fast growing directories from backup (it seems inpossible with dump)? My SCSI HP SureStore (HP HP35480A T603) cannot reliably tell when the tape finished to `dump -a'. What to do? Is there any suitable software (flexible I mean) to do backups? May be commercial.. I checked amanda, but it uses dump and so derives all its limitations. Excuse me for stupid questions, but I'm new to tapes.. Andrew.

I got the Partition resizer program and did what you had said. I decreased the size of the extended partition down to 2 megs (it was still 4 megs even though I deleted the E drive for some reason). So now, FIPS prints out: Part|Boot|Head Cyl Sect|System|Head Cyl Sect|Start Sect|Num Sectors|MB 1 yes 1 0 1 06h 254 260 63 63 4192902 2047 2 no 0 261 1 05h 254 521 63 4192965 4192965 2047 This looks correct because partition 2 no longer says 4094MB, its says 2047. So the room should be there. But once again, when I go to install FreeBSD(noice installation), it says no room. And it still shows the same screen during installation(shown below)...

To describe the code I'm looking for, let me describe the problem I'm trying to solve. My users and I log shell sessions with tools such as 'watch' and 'script'. But as you know, they don't do any terminal emulation. All characters appear there, backspaces, bell characters, etc. I was wondering if I can adapt any of the routines used by the UNIX terminal buffers to clean those files up line-by-line. Or if you know of any perl code that has been written to do that, it would be appreciated as well. Thank You, JM > ------------- > Jeffrey M.

It's Michael Jaskowiak again. I followed the link and downloaded the patch for PNP compatibility. That seemed to work. Now when the kernel configuration is scrolling past, it finds the sound card at the proper address. Thank you so much for your help. I wish that this could just be a thank you letter but I need to know how to test it. I have tried to compile several things that might play a WAV file but I don't know how to work them very well. Is there a simple way to see if the card will play a WAV? Also, when I used /dev/MAKEDEV snd0, all I got in the /dev directory was 'sndstat'. Is this a problem (no snd0 device)? Once again, thank you for your marvelous help. You are the Gods of the digital realm.

BTW: -stable stands for the mailing list freebsd-stable@freebsd.org . I recommend it if you are running anything in 2.2 , especially if you run anything between releases. Since this may be a SCSI problem, I'll probably send a quick note to freebsd-scsi as well. > >I now have a 2nd machine so I can try to telnet when next my system hangs. > > > > No use.

Therefor I dont believe you will be able to telnet into it. Yeah, my system just hung while running the program I supplied and it was unpingable. However, this isn't the symptom that I had heard of previously in the -stable list for SCSI bugs.

The Portmaster will help you here-- you can set a variable in the Radius config that limits the number of simultaneous logins on a PM.

There used to be a security hole with these (still is?) that SIGQUITting them causes them to coredump, and in the dump is the password file. I don't know if we fixed this or not, or if using login.conf limits we disabled coredumps on normal daemons.

Which manual said that? - I'm not familiar with it... You probably won't be able to move the /var directory - certainly not on a system that's not running single user (at the 'boot:' prompt put '-s' then hit enter)... Even if the system is running multi-user - you might run into problems later with a moved 'var' directory...

Make sure the floppy drive is in on bootup. Also try setting flag 0x1 on the fdc device in the boot-time configuration.

Yeah, I recall seeing that one a while back, I thought it was fixed (although I haven't tried going through the core files to see if anything like that was there). As I recall, to abuse that took access to the machine. With this particular machine, it's not overly likely that anyone that has access to it would be doing this (to be honest, I think the technique is above all but a couple of the people, and those people already have root access on the machine to begin with). As far as I've been able to tell by comparing logs from around when they occured, I haven't found anything that suspiciously corresponds to it. Hmm, although this is a machine that we do get frequent attempts to connect to telnet or ftp accidentally (it's a mud machine, and we'll get connection attempts from people that forget to stick the port numbers on their command). I don't know if there's a way to get these processes to die like that externally.

Before you blame the OS or the web server I would look into these scripts. I have seen one script, that seemed to be written fine, crash a similar system. If your scripts are in C then I would suspect one of them to be the culprit of the memory leak. Here is a way to test my hypothesis. Turn off half the scripts. See if that helps. If it does not turn them back on and turn off the other half. If one of theses steps works, then just keep halving the number of scripts you are running till you find the culprit. It could be a combination of scripts causing the problems or more than one may be causing the exact same problem. If so the 'half' approach might not find it. Also your customers might gripe less if you turn them off one at a time, but this is way more tedious. Look closely at any scripts that fork a lot of processes. Look at the child code to make sure it is cleaning itself up well when it dies. I will bet you a Henry Weinharts Root Beer that it's a script with leak in the children or child creation process. You could be having an OS or web server related problem, however I am running a similar system at an ISP with a reasonable number of scripts and it is robust and stable.

As I recall, to abuse that took access to the Hmm, I guess the fix that was done was to make the core file not world readable, since the encrypted passwords definitely show up in the core file. It appears the connection was established from outside the machine (from looking at the output of strings). Nobody was logged into the machine at the time the connection attempt was made and login SIGQUIT'ed. I guess the real question is whether this might be an indication of something flakey with the machine, or whether this is something that is known to happen occaisionally with bad login attempts.

You need to allow the machine to be backed up rsh access to the tape server in /etc/hosts.equiv. I hate this way myself since it's a blatant security hole. We actually hacked a way to pipe this through ssh but I don't have that script in front of me.

WAVs are actually more difficult than they look. You can check if the setup is correct by: 1. Running `cat /dev/sndstat' and checking that the setup is right. 2. Running `cat /bin/mount > /dev/audio' and seeing if you hear noise from the soundcard.

Your BIOS doesn't support booting operating systems beyond 500mb or so. I would suggest investing in a new disk specifically for FreeBSD, or rearrange your disk so that FreeBSD's root slice is under cylinder 1024.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear Sir/Madam, We encountered a strange problem while using FreeBSD. The following structure can be compacted to be 8 bytes by means of cc compiler on Open-VMS platform. But on FreeBSD, 12 bytes will be formed. #pragma nomember_alignment struct example_structure { unsigned type : 3; unsigned c : 1; signed mem1 : 12; signed mem2 : 24; signed mem2 : 24; }; It seems that on FreeBSD the compiler can only provide one, two or four bytes alignment, "type" occupies 1 byte, "c" occupies 1, "mem1" 2 , "mem2" 4 bytes and "mem3" 4 bytes, because is no bit alignment and 3-byte alignment. However, on Open-VMS the compiler can provide the bit alignment, "type", "c" and "mem1" take 2 byte space, and "mem2", "mem3" will occupy 3 bytes respectively. The total space will be only 8 bytes. Is there any solution to this problem? Your kind will be very much appreciated.

And is a nice improvement on previous versions. It would be easier to update your files in /usr/ports/news/inn and then make/make install the port from there, as it will apply the necessary patches for you, prior to compile.

The BT-948 card worked, but *not* the Adaptec 1505? When the system "panicked", what happened ... a total lock-up? A so-called "SCSI kernel lockup" where the machine is frozen but still answers pings? Did you try the Adaptec with just the scanner or with multiple SCSI devices?

I created a boot floppy using boot.flp and fdimage.exe copied down today (4/3/98) from Ftp.FreeBSD.org. The system (which is brand new), boots the floppy just fine and I select visual mode for configuration. The system configuration is simple: 200 MHZ Pentium w/ MMX 512 K second level cache 64 megs of RAM 3Com PCI LAN controller ("3Com Fast ETherlink XL") 3c90x Hard disk: WDC AC24300L (4312 mb) (primary ide master) CD ROM: Toshiba (primary IDE slave) ZIP Drive: secondary IDE Master Matrox video card serial ports, modem, serial mouse, floppy, etc. Selecting active drivers I kill all storage except floppy. Same with Netowrk devices and parallel printers. Same with microsoft and ps/2 mouse selections. PCI section shows PCI drivers for my LAN and disk controllers. WHen I'm done, I select "q" to quit and "y" to save. Immediatley I get a partial screen of text showing the probes. There are 9 lines of output in all. They are (hand typed, sorry if there are any typos): avail memory = 61792256 (60344K bytes) Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0 rev 1 on pci0:0:0 chip1 rev 1 on pci0:7:0 chip2 rev 1 on pci0:7:1 chip3 rev 1 int d irq 11 on pci0:7:2 chip4 rev 1 on pci0:7:3 vga0 rev 0 int a irq 9 on pci0:13:0 vx0 <3COM 3C905 Faster Therlink XL PCI> rev 0 int a irq 10 on pci0:15:0 Then the system hangs. It won't respond to the keyboard (numlock doesn't work, space bar doesn't work, cntl-alt-delete doesn't work). I've left it this way for 1+ hour without any changes. I've also tried various configuration settings including bypassing configuration totally. I get the same answers. When I boot with -cv I get some more lines of output during the probes but nothing which seems relevant. I must be doing something wrong, but I'm too close to the problem. COuld someone please give me a hint as to what I'm doing wrong? BTW: Hardware boots windows/95 just fine and I haven't been able to overwrite it yet!

The usual solution to this is to increase the listen queue depth. There is a kernel limit (kern.somaxconn or kern.ipc.somaxconn depending on which version of FreeBSD), and of course the value passed into listen() needs to also be increased. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 14:55:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA22414 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 14:55:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cplkagan.globaleyes.net (cplkagan.midwest.net [208.235.2.205]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA22397 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 14:54:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from parrothd@midwest.net) Received: from parrothd.houselan.net (parrothd [10.10.0.10]) by cplkagan.globaleyes.net (8.8.7/8.8.5) with SMTP id QAA23295; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 16:54:30 -0600 (CST) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980403170252.007e7a00@midwest.net> X-Sender: parrothd@midwest.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Fri, 03 Apr 1998 17:02:52 -0600 To: rec@corp.cirrus.com (Bob Cousins), questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: "Jonathan E.

Dan I have never used Linux so I cannot compare the two OSes. I can say this. FreeBSD is a very tight package. Throw in the ports collection and it is more tight. Software installs with ease. I have never NOT been able to get any software in the ports collection to run. I have had to tweak a couple of makefiles to get a couple ports to work, but that was because of my mucking around. FreeBSD has just two development branches: -current and -stable. There is no Redhat, Slackware, or Debian distrbutions to deal with. There is just -current and -stable. -current is bleeding edge. -stable is, well, stable. :) For those of us who don't monkey around with the latest sources it is even easier. From the -stable branch of development there is ONE release. The current release is 2.2.6. Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...

I found a great service on the web and got inspired to introduce this FREE daily devotional/online Bible study to you and people like you who may be interested in God, Christ, and the church, but not necessarily in religion. This service is called eManna. Abraham Lincoln once said that "the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man." All who know its history would agree that it is truly a unique book. The Bible reveals God, Christ, man, the past and the future, but above all -- the Bible conveys to us the very life and Spirit of God. When we open ourselves to its speaking and revelation, it becomes the seed of life that enlivens, refreshes, strengthens and transforms our inward being. eManna gives us this Bread of Life delivered daily via email! A few verses from the Bible and a short inspiring "elucidation" feeds our spirit and soul, strengthens us from within, and fills us with encouragement and insight. Some days eManna strengthens our faith, other days it provides a fresh new way of understanding the Word, and then there are days when it challenges our knowledge of the Word of God. But every day the pure word of the Bible is opened without catering to any particular school of theology, and every day my own heart has been stirred toward God. eManna can be used as A help for a personal devotional/Bible study time. A help for group Bible studies and fellowship. A tool for shepherding new believers. An introduction to unbelievers to the riches in God's Word.

Sincerely, Paul Smith A person who loves God ----------Here is A Sample daily eManna:------------------------3W Rivers of Living Water -----------------------------Bible verses----------------------------- John 7:37-39 Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes into Me, as the Scripture said, out of his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water. But this He said concerning the Spirit, whom those who believed into Him were about to receive; for the Spirit was not yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified. -----------------------------Elucidation------------------------------ In the Gospel of John, at the end of the greatest religious festival of that day, Christ stood up and said that if any man was thirsty, he could come to Him and drink. In saying this, Christ was speaking about the Spirit. It is strange that the people could still be thirsty at the end of a great religious festival. But the truth is that no out- ward religious observances can satisfy a man's inner thirst. The more we observe religious practices, the more we will be thirsty. What we need is a drink of the living water. Here the Spirit is likened to "rivers of living water." This living water was not there at the time Christ spoke these words, because He had not been processed through His death and resurrection [i.e. "glorified"]. But after His death and resurrection, the process was completed, and today the Spirit as the living water is here. In other words, He has passed through the process of becoming a man, living a human life, dying on the cross, and resurrecting to become the life- giving Spirit. Now we do not need to sweat and struggle to reach Him; He has become so enjoyable and accessible to us. Now we can freely drink of the Spirit. This living water fully quenches our inner thirst. -------------------------------A prayer------------------------------ Lord Jesus, I praise You because You are the unique One who can satis- fy man's inner thirst. In the midst of so much religious practice, make me one who daily drinks of You as the living water and enjoys You as the Spirit. Amen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Apr 3 18:47:42 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA08737 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 18:47:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netserver.rivieranet.ch ([194.38.89.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA08708 for ; Fri, 3 Apr 1998 18:47:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from prod@mediaprofil.ch) Date: Fri, 3 Apr 1998 18:47:20 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199804040247.SAA08708@hub.freebsd.org> Received: from serveur2.mediaprofil.ch by netserver.rivieranet.ch with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.0.1457.7) id FD0HG0BC; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 04:47:11 +0200 Subject: Your TV production company in Switzerland Content-type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Mime-version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Mediaprofil Productions Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id SAA08725 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At last an independent, efficient and dynamic structure for your video shootings and productions in Europe!

I think most everything has to be word-aligned anyway, so it'll be expanded.

Ah, nice to hear that you can confirm this. (monochrome icons) I still suspect it's an X Driver problem since it happens with NS 4.05 as well on my 24bpp XF86_SVGA with Matrox Millenium (I). (the Matrox Mill support is in the SVGA driver). Do you use the SVGA driver as well? When I run NS 4.04 under XFree86 with the XF86_S3 server in 24bpp mode none of these problems (java console crash, monochrome icons) are showing up. The former is a Amd586/DX4/133 on ASUS SP3G,matrox millenium I, 64 MB, the latter a P5/233 with Elsa Gloria (S3-968). > > Charles Sprickman > spork@super-g.com > ---- > "I'm not a prophet or a stone-age man > Just a mortal with potential of a superman > I'm living on" -DB > > On Fri, 3 Apr 1998, Christoph Kukulies wrote: > > > My netscape 4.04 is still dying when I'm clicking the > > java console or java is started by hitting some > > java web page (www.javasoft.com). > > > > Anyone out there running the same configuration and can confirm this? > > (FreeBSD-2.2.5R, XFree86-331/XF86_SVGA, Matrox Millenium 4MB, 1280x1024) > > > > > > -- > > Chris Christoph P.

To plan what will fit and what was average compression ration and so on. If it is impossible to know from streamer - why not to do it in driver? Who does the search for eof, for example - streamer or driver? If driver then it's easy to add such counter to driver I think.. I even attempted to eject the tape and see position, but the tape is rewinded prior to eject.. Nice service :) > > And yet another question - what to do if 0-level dump doesn't fit to one > > tape? > > dump will ask for another tape. In reality it says something like "Cannot write, abort entire backup process [yes/no] ?" Hm.. I had not tried to answer `no', btw :) Btw, I'd wrote more or less detailed plan for myself to do some kind of tape helper - something that will always know what is on that tape and help networked computers to access `tape server' reliably and easy. Is it interested to someone except me? I'm busy now, but i can at least continue think about it and may be implement it some time later.. Andrew.

It may be termination, however. So your hangs seem to be the same hangs that i see on my machine and the reason for this hangs should be the same also, without knowing what the real reason is. Our problem is definately not an OS-bug. It is a hardware-problem IMO. That hangs happen on FreeBSD as well as Win95 and always when the scsi-bus is busy with heavy load where more than one device are involved. It never happens when the scsi-bus is heavy-loaded with just one device. >> >I have also had great success in reducing my hangs by running the >> >following program from another virtual console: >> This is fighting the symptoms ... no real solution. But for the time, until >> a solution is found, it is undoubtly useful. >Yes, and if we can find a way to reliably prevent the hangs from software, >then it may help in diagnosing the cause. I dont think you can prevent the hangs by software. My problem for now is, how to reproduce that hangs on demand. Again, my candidate is noise on TERM-POWER. I have just one device that has some jumpers to play with active/passive-termination AND term-power. It is the SONY-SDT-7000 tape-drive. When terminating the scsi-bus passive, i get disastrous crashes at bootup. When terminating the scsi-bus active with term-power-jumper set to "provided" by scsi-bus, i had no hangs so far. When terminating the scsi-bus active with term-power-jumper set to "not provided" by the scsi-bus, i had that hangs. My paper of the jumper-setting on the sony-sdt-7000 is really bad, so i am not sure what the term-power-jumper and the "dc-disable"-jumper really do. I have to guess. All other devices on my bus dont have a jumper for term-power. If they are set to terminate the scsi-bus, they do it active. But i dont know, if they are getting term-power from the scsi-bus or in some other way. Further i dont know if they supply term-power to the scsi-bus. Therefor i set the sony-sdt-7000 as the terminating device. A final answer if noise on term-power is causing this hangs can be obtained by cutting the term-power-line on the scsi-cable at both ends of it. But this is an irreversible step. I am not sure if i should take that step. Do you have a device with jumpers to enable and disable term-power ?

I've included a sample from the cron log file, the crontab file itself and the mail message. The atrun and newsyslog files are in the directories that the crontab file is pointing to. It's the root crontab file, so I don't think it's a rights issue. I'm at a loss as to what it's trying to tell me and how to fix it. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Perhaps if you had more patience and read the instructions you would not have had any troubles. Also, had you contacted this list sooner, we might have been able to help you. As things are now, there is nothing we can do. You are incredibly wrong about everything you said. NEC was wrong too. Just so you know, you never probably never had to reformat your hard drive. You probably spent several hours fixing something that wasn't broke. Even better, people on this list could have helped you in a couple minutes. OBTW, the email you sen went to hundreds of users who like this OS very much. We are all volunteers. We do not get, nor require, any pay for our efforts. This means that you may be receiving a few emails soon. :) This means that I can tell you to take a hike with your bad attitude.

It looks like you were new to a Unix type OS. When I first installed the BSD OS, I did some booboo's at first I thought it was installed also got the same error as you. but best suggestion to give anyone read the installation doc's, faq's or buy "The Complete FreeBSD by Greg Lehey" never try something without checking how it operates. Before making this leap, also what you can is take a intoduction course to Unix or attend a Unix User Group meeting in your area. I learned how UNIX operate, though a friend of mine. he gave me a shell account or access to his UNIX server, there I learn how it operate and configured using editors like joe, jove and vi to how is the various files works .profile .mail etc.. etc..

I hope that disabling ipx will stop this and that the old usermode PPP Client does not get confused about DNS informations. I need them for Windoze dialins... But thanks a lot for your help...

They are currently connected with a PPP link. One of the lab machines has two ethernet cards, and acts as a gateway for both subnets. The campus network is set up so that the other machines in my private network cannot directly access campus or outside addresses. I would like one of the machines in my home subnet to have "direct" Internet access. What I'd like to do is to add a second ethernet card to one of the lab machines, and connect that card to another port on the campus network. Then I'd like to run natd -redirect_address I think this would essentially create a virtual wire between the home machine and the port on the campus system, so that the PPP connection acts like a direct connection to the campus system--is this correct? -Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 4 09:29:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA14797 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 09:29:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp04.primenet.com (smtp04.primenet.com [206.165.6.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA14790 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 09:29:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from markem@primenet.com) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by smtp04.primenet.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA24650 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 10:29:33 -0700 (MST) Received: from xdsl-ip47-064.phx.primenet.com(207.218.25.64), claiming to be "dad" via SMTP by smtp04.primenet.com, id smtpd024639; Sat Apr 4 10:29:25 1998 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980404102923.009ac3c0@pop.primenet.com> X-Sender: markem@pop.primenet.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sat, 04 Apr 1998 10:29:23 To: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" From: "M.

There are a lot of issues but none addresses problems with 24bpp (which I thought to be the 'natural' truecolor mode since this is 3x8 giving 8 bits/color, or 2^24 colors.

I don't understand. With natd you can remap packets. Practically it means, if you have an ISP and a machine through which you dialup to your provider, you can make machines sitting on your local network (ethernet in most cases) reach the outer world (internet) without the necessity to have a routable (official) network. You can give your local machines a network like 192.168.x.0 and tell them to use your gateway to the ISP (which is then running natd) to remap the packets to the IP address of your gateway host.

My understanding has always been that the netmask defines the network portion of the address (the 1 bits) and the the rest (the 0 bits) are the node addresses. How can you have any nodes addresses if the entire address is the network address? Not flaming, just trying to understand. At any rate, it does not work with 255.255.255.255 as a netmask. I get Network is unreachable. Hmmm...I'm also running natd. Wonder if that could be part of it??? In the attached stuff, the 192.168.1.x addresses are my LAN, the 207.218.25.x addresses are the ISP via a dsl line. There does not appear to be a default routiong but when I try to add it I get the Network is unreachable from route. It's been running fine for months but yesterday they changed the netmask and it hasn't worked since (unless I manually set it up). Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks...

Hi guys, Working with a new laptop (A Sharp 9020) piece of crap really, but I thought I'd try installing 2.2.6-RELEASE on it anyway. I haven't used FreeBSD on a laptop yet, and was hoping for a little more support in the pcmcia dept. The card I need to configure is a standard 36589d (etherlink III) which the kernel supports (supposedly) But to no avail, enabling pccard didn't do a thing - do I need to make a pccard.conf entry? If so, what? After playing with the base install for awhile, I decided I needed the PAO... the file I dl'd was PAO-971211.tar.gz, meant for 2.2.5-RELEASE (will that be a prob?) I tried pkg_add (failed with "no +CONTENTS") then "gz -dc | tar xvf -" and "make" (make failed with directory errors) I can't find any install documentation on the PAO site... any clues? Also, having problems with the machine's Cirrus Logic 754x vid adapter and XFree86... can't seem to get it to start without freezing (tried every config I could think of) I have no connectivity with the laptop so I can't copy in the dmesg... sorry. Hopefully I can get this done this weekend - thanks in advance Ian Field To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 4 14:01:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA15597 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 14:01:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from camnetbackup1.camnet.com.kh (camnetbackup1.camnet.com.kh [203.127.100.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA15573 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 14:01:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fred@madtec.com) Received: from nbfred (unverified [203.127.100.54]) by camnetbackup1.camnet.com.kh (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Sun, 05 Apr 1998 05:01:25 +0700 Message-ID: <001d01bd6015$27411bc0$36647fcb@nbfred> From: "Fred Muller" To: , Subject: Re: Installation Boot Disk Image Date: Sun, 5 Apr 1998 05:00:58 +0700 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 4.72.2106.4 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Get a FTP client and connect to ftp.freebsd.org : you'll find it much more easier to download anything.

The letter mentioned Linux but not FreeBSD. The group is installing Linux and will probably recommend it as an alternative to Microsoft operating systems, but they have not to my knowledge even tried FreeBSD. If Walnut Creek is concerned about the expense of sending out an evaluation copy or two of FreeBSD 2.2.6 and the book to Mr. Love and Mr. Nader, perhaps we can take up a small collection to have them sent. --Brett Glass At 12:58 AM 4/5/98 -0300, Capriotti wrote: >Great !

When it says "Boot:" you can just hit enter. If your bothered to read the docs you would realize that BSD is nothing at all like DOS. DOS and winblows95 are for people who either need to play games or do word proccessing and don't want to learn about how a computer works. It is the typical attitude of the small and stupid to hate something they cannot understand. I ecnounter this attitude from 8th graders, I expect better from adults. You seem to hate FreeBSD because it requires intelligence to run, and you obviously have very little in that department.

If you are doing compiles, and are not memory limited, you'll notice very close to a 2X speed-up on a P6. On a P5, I would expect less improvement, due to the shared 2nd level cache. FreeBSD tries to allocate memory cache space intelligently, but cannot make up for the typical P5 MB sharing the 2nd level cache. If you are running X windows, the SMP kernels help alot also (due to the client server model of the X environment.) For realtime or fast fork/exec type performance (LL performance), the SMP kernels are slower. Most processes take significantly more time than the fork/exec, and in that case, the SMP kernels will outperform the UP kernels. Note, that the biggest minus about running FreeBSD-current SMP, is that we don't work with all motherboards, but try to. When configuring your system, whether using SMP or UP, the biggest caveat, if you are doing everything right, is to allocate enough swap space. FreeBSD optimizes performance at the expense of swap space. The bottom line, is if you are running a medium loaded workstation, it is very plausible that you'll need 100MB of swap space (or at least 2X your physical memory.) There are ways that you can get by with less, but please don't try (it just ends up being problematical for the users, and a time waste for everyone trying to explain that more swap space is needed.) Be generous with it. Since disks are dirt cheap, consider the $20 worth of disk that FreeBSD needs for swap space as a part of the cost of using the OS. -- John | Never try to teach a pig to sing, dyson@freebsd.org | it just makes you look stupid, jdyson@nc.com | and it irritates the pig.

That permission denied error message sounds like you have some firewalling misconfiguration.... besides that, I'd look at routing (try netstat -r).

Both FreeBSD and linux contain support for SMP, though for freebsd, support is only in the in-development, unstable version. In the stable linux release, SMP essentially involves a global mutex around the kernel--i.e., only one CPU can be in kernel mode at a time. This, of course, is great for cpu intensive apps, but not for i/o and other apps that make a lot of syscalls, etc. The stable freebsd release has NO support for SMP. Both freebsd and linux have in-development versions with high granularity locking that should be quite efficient. More information for freebsd is at: http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html But this looks kind of old--might want to subscribe to the freebsd-smp mailing list for more current info. I'm not sure which one will reach maturity first... my impression is that linux is somewhat ahead (maybe 6 months?) here, but I might be wrong. Of course, linux's idea of "maturity" is a little less stringent then freebsd's (imho, of course)... -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 4 20:55:32 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA23021 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 20:55:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail-out2.apple.com (mail-out2.apple.com [17.254.0.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA22975 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 20:55:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wsanchez@mail.apple.com) Received: from scv3.apple.com (A17-128-100-121.apple.com [17.128.100.121]) by mail-out2.apple.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id UAA12952 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 20:46:21 -0800 Received: from [17.219.24.160] (wsanchez.apple.com [17.219.24.160]) by scv3.apple.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id UAA08516 for ; Sat, 4 Apr 1998 20:46:18 -0800 Message-Id: <199804050446.UAA08516@scv3.apple.com> Subject: FreeBSD and Rhapsody Date: Sat, 4 Apr 98 20:46:22 -0800 x-sender: wsanchez@mail.apple.com x-mailer: Claris Emailer 2.0v2, June 6, 1997 From: Wilfredo Sanchez To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Howdy- I'm having a hard time figuring out how one becomes a FreeBSD developer from your web site, so perhaps you guys can help me out. I work for Apple Computer, and as you may know, we're building this operating system with the code name Rhapsody. Rhapsody has a full BSD subsystem in it, and we'd like to get a relationship going with FreeBSD if the FreeBSD team is interested. Most of our BSD code comes from 4BSD Lite, which is a bit dated. Since last year, I've updated a lot of our user commands using NetBSD's sources. The decision to use NetBSD was pretty much arbitrary, although the fact that I can acces their code via CVS, and now can commit changes back in was a big influence. In any case, the BSD kernel guys at Apple usually use FreeBSD as a reference. This led to some small gotchas due to differences between NetBSD and FreeBSD, such as the fact that NetBSD lets you change mode bits on symlinks, which FreeBSD (I think) doesn't. So I had a little trouble with commands like cp, which tried to do this thing we don't support. I haven't gotten to the network and system commands and the libraries, where I think the biggest incompatibility problem lie, and the consensus is that I should look into using FreeBSD for those. There will be problems in any case, since we implement BSD over Mach, which makes commands like ps somewhat unique from other BSD's, but the goal is to minimize that. What I need to know is the degree that you would like to work together with Apple, if at all, in this regard. It's important that we be able to send our changes back upstream, since I believe that staying in sync with our source provider is more important than any competitive advantage that might buy us. UNIX is of little importance to Rhapsody from a market standpoint; there are plenty of good UNIX flavors that one can get for free; the value in Rhapsody lies elsewhere. But BSD *is* important for several reason, which I'm sure you appreciate. The key is we don't want to provide "a better UNIX", we just want to be compatible and play nice with other systems, and have all that functionality. To that end, we don't need to be unique, and cooperating with you guys would be much better. I tried a few times to get CVSup to work on Rhapsody, and I found it somewhat difficult, so I don't have that tool, although I could set up a FreeBSD box to do that. Currently I plan to use the Walnut Creek CDs, since that's more convenient. The question is how I would get changes back up to FreeBSD. CVS access would be ideal, and is our current arrangement with NetBSD. I understand that such access isn't easily granted, so I'm open to alternatives. I should mention that I'm really not all that interested in the merits of one BSD effort over the others. I'm a little surprised at the animosity between some developers toward the other groups, and don't really want to get involved in that debate, so don't tell me why the other guys stink, in case you are so inclined. I have no loyalties towards any one group. Ideally, we'd get the best of each, although I think we'll need a primary to keep things sane, and our kernel guys like FreeBSD. I believe that getting something set up that let us work together will be mutually beneficial. We can leverage the work you have done, and you can some paid developers to help with bugs.

Including the part about the boot disc. I can't say it any better than this site. If the site confuses you then repost with a _specific_ question about a _specific_ step in the procedure. We will help you. If you aren't doing a cdrom installation then the boot disc method is second best. If you are downloading bunches of files but haven't used the boot disc yet, I recommend giving the above web page a read and use a boot disc. The boot disc has an installation program that: boots you into BSD, helps you set up your disc, connects you to the net, gets all of the files you need, puts them in all the right places, does some final configuration and voila.
